Think of them like stamina potions instead of hiding places, because you'll always be found. Holding your breath stops the sound bubble from appearing for a little while, but if you're the slightest bit afraid, the whole house will be red.

I've had a lot of fun with watching and playing this so far. Last night I had a blast when Jason managed to find me in the first 5 seconds as Deborah. I managed to get lucky and knock him down with an axe and escape four times in a row before he eventually gave up (it still ended up being a full wipe later on). I also accidentally backed over somebody in the car in an attempt to avoid Jason in a panic. Giving more power to the counselors for balance would definitely ruin the slasher flick atmosphere the game has going on that I felt DbD lacked. I do wish the game just let you randomly perform an execution from any that you have unlocked + 1 slot for a 'favorite' execution instead of the current four at a time. I also think shift+grab is okay (if a little un-Jasonlike). If it needs to get changed, it should either become shift+melee to keep it good at cutting down chase times, or make it so that only +Grip Strength Jasons have enough time to start executing a gripped counselor that isn't injured, scared, or tired.

Carebearz posted:Also, my favorite thing about this game is how salty people are about not having the backer stuff be paid DLC. the Steam forums are full of salt (it also doesn't help that i've been calling everyone babbies) Nerds are loving insufferable. If a game has DLC skins/characters on day 1 then it's a rip off and they should have been part of the game. But if there isn't DLC they whine too.

I don't know if this is the case, but if the Savini Jason is a unique character, then I can kind of understand being a little annoyed that a piece of gameplay was locked behind an exclusivity thing. If the Savini Jason plays exactly like one of the other Jason's available, then yeah, there's not really much reason to whine.

Different abilities are just being slightly better or worse at one thing or another. Savini Jason has a really strong set of abilities but it's hardly new gameplay.

weekly font posted:Anyone want to give some protips on playing AJ? I've got stealth perks on her and still get murdered from anywhere on the map. I do not believe stealth works in this game. Stealth works fine, it's just that Sense works off composure, not stealth. Jason is finding you because you're afraid (plus once he gets Rage Sense seems to get a big range boost).

It's still different than other Jasons, so it plays differently, however slight. I happen to think that's it's not cool to lock anything that has any effect on gameplay or mechanics behind time-locked exclusivity deals when it comes to games. I'm not going to get my panties in a twist about it, but I think it's a crap practice. If you want to make something exclusive to backers, stick with cosmetic poo poo only.

They're being rewarded for paying money to fund the game being made. Sounds pretty fair to me. Better than just your name in the credits and a digital backer art download or similar. If it was pay2win then I'd be upset but didn't seem to be. Savini Jason is creepy as gently caress when you see him in the distance.

Savini Jason deals extra melee damage, recharges map teleport faster, and breaks doors/walls quicker. He's cool looking but he's not like a crazy useful setup or anything. I also imagine this skill setup will be given to Jason X in the future.

I mean I'm just discussing what his strengths and weaknesses are. I don't even really want him, not a fan of the visuals. Jason to me is always the campfire story come to life, and super spooky hell jason throws that out th e window.

A note on Savini (and Jason V, I believe): Sometimes when attempting to strike a window, your spear will get "stuck" for a moment or two. I haven't noticed this on the other Jasons. It may be a negative to counteract the seemingly long range on Savini and Jason V, but it can be annoying on Savini as you tend to favor destruction more.

Tinfoil Papercut posted:The gameplay will stay, the instability will go away. Remember the game has only been out for a week. Yeah don't get me wrong, I'm not angry nearly as much as disappointed; This game's shitloads of fun and if it weren't for the eight crashes in three hours and half my sessions being interrupted before I earned the XP from them I would've played even longer and had more of a blast. I really hope they can lock down the stability soon, easily one of the best asymmetric versus setups ever.

I know you're a carebear but it being an opinion doesn't mean I can't say anything about it. Anyway windows are buggy yeah. Dunno how to get around it as 6 or Savini but Jasons who swing their weapon sideways can reliably get windows by standing with the window to your right and swinging. So perpendicular to the window.

Ahh ok, I must not have noticed it when I played Jason III. I've also realized that Jason's hitbox with his weapon is slightly ahead and to the right of Jason's body rather than directly in front how you might expect, this has helped immensely with getting those windows smashed.

Yeah unfortunately its a thread of "gently caress you got mine." Anytime gameplay is completely cut off from some players, with absolutely zero means to acquire, its really poor game design. Backers can be awarded sure, cosmetically. However none of that matters because you can bet your butt the devs will sell Savini as dlc since it would be fiscally irresponsible not to.

This happened when World Of Tanks went to console, there were a few things that were given "exclusively" to beta testers that were sold a while later, so folks complained but I think if it was a freebie that got sold later it's fine.
