This is usually how it goes for me. The times I have been able to get into multiplayer games day 1, the online has always been a shitshow.

I'm at work till 11 tonight - but I'll try to setup the STEAM group for the morning. I'll probably have to make some kind of graphic with Jason and the SA grenade or something. Will post once the group is formed.

Also, someone smarter than me should do the discord thing.

I've been looking forward to this game since it was announced and it's crazy to think it's just days away from release. I watched some twitch streams on it when it was in a public beta phase a few months back and as fun as it looked there were some things about it that looked janky as hell and unfinished. I haven't seen anything recent on it though and I'm probably going to still get it either way but I'm just wondering if much of anything has been improved since then or is it generally still the same game?

I can't decide which Jason I want to use as my "main" Jason.

This has nothing to do with actual gameplay of course, and everything to do with which Jason from the movies is my favorite. I like baghead Jason from Part 2, but then I really am not a huge fan of hockey mask Jason until he went full zombie in Part 6. Gothic Super-Jason is probably the best.

I didn't really notice what you are referring to, there were definitely some bugs on a few things. The most notorious ones were where a counselor's camera would get stuck during a loot sequence, forever pinning them to those nefarious end tables and dressers until Jason killed them. The other would occur on Jason, he would get stuck on an infinite loop of breaking down a door.

The devs expressed very clearly that they were aware of those issues and moved to fix them during / after beta. One even went into great technical detail on why the infinite door-smash bug was occurring, which was pretty cool. (I forget where / when this discussion happened)

There hasn't been a 2nd beta, sadly, but I would expect that the post-beta grooming took care of most major concerns.

Just so you guys know I'm suffering from either an upper respiratory infection or allergic reactions to all the loving PLANTS (don't know yet) so if you encounter a Jason that sounds like a wheezy Bane,you'll know why.

Jason really should be silent imo. Either that or do the kikikimamama sound into the mic when you get close to a counselor.

They did mention that Jason gets another skill that turns off his music if you stand still. He now uses throwing knives and traps.

I know the various Jason's get unique kills, but does Part 6 Jason have a kill where he snaps someone in half?

Likewise punching someone's head clean off and into a dumpster should be unique to Part 8 Jason.

I'm only speaking for myself, no way I could play DbD for that long. At least this game has Jason, so there's a nostalgia factor to playing Jason or trying to survive Jason, but it won't last forever.

Agree 100 percent.

It's shipping with 3, which I think is a solid number considering the obvious care that went into map design. I'm hoping we end up with a cruise ship style map a la Part 8 down the line. Maybe instead of cars you have to activate life boats?

I'd also like Part 5's halfway-home ranch thing and the crystal Lake town itself, which shows up a few times in the series.

Don't forget Jason X so we can kill people IN SPACE

Only if the dumpster is in a fixed location on the map and the punched head always sails clean into it, regardless of where you were on the map at the time.

I want to see clips of some poor counselor's head flying through windows, around trees, opening doors for itself, and bouncing off the dumpster's open lid before landing inside. With NBA Jam sound effects dubbed in.

yeah i normally don't watch gameplay videos AT ALL but i lost about a week of evenings to hunting down beta footage from streamers when i found this thread. even if i'm too busy to pick it up and play this weekend, i'll be relaxing with a beer and some potato chips watching someone play. probably that one cat tinfoil posted earlier who is one hundred percent schtick but his schtick is very excited and happy to be here black guy so it's a fun schtick
