Manhattan should let you hide in trash cans and dumpsters and come up with a new way for Jason to kill you in them.

Maybe decapitation via dumpster lid?

Manhattan is just such a dumb place for Jason. To me at least Jason was always the campfire story come to life, same thing with The Burning and Cropsy. Putting him in Manhattan or turning him into a xenomorph or whatever the gently caress part 9 was supposed to be kind of kills.

Also remember that thing where some streamers lost their perks after the new update? Turns out that wasn't a bug, it was an exploit that lets you spoof people's steam ID and manipulate their inventory. Now it's gotten out enough salty babies are doing it to anybody who beats them. Don't play right now.

Edit: VVVV This also. Teenagers out in an idyllic campground for their last youthful romp before the drudgery of adulthood is the perfect setting for Jason. Whereas in 80s Manhattan a teleporting undead serial killer is barely newsworthy. It's not the same.

Sorry you don't like fun movies

We had this misunderstanding earlier because one person was a PC player and another was on consoles. Are you playing on a console? Because if so all evidence is that that's 100% p2p.

Yeah, I'm on PS4. Why in the world would they handle each platform differently? The PS4 version's P2P nature is why I'm taking a break from it. I'm sick of being kicked by rear end in a top hat hosts who shut the game off when they die. It's especially bad when I've already escaped; I get to keep exactly zero of the huge amount of XP I earned.

I've played dozens of dozens of online games and this is hands down filled by some of the dumbest motherfuckers I've ever seen. We're talking tapping e to put a battery in repeatedly and at no point clueing in the obvious that you need to hold it down or people picking up a pipe when they have a shotgun (!). What the hell is going on? I know pubs will be pubs but this takes the cake.

That's what makes it fun for me, and why I don't really like full premades. When everybody's in the same group things move like clockwork and half the fun of the game is in the chaos of seven dipshits forced to work together on solutions that can't save all of them.

The only thing I can't stand about pub groups is people who are using mics with speaker audio. No, I don't want to hear a time delay version of the game I'm already playing AND your bad music. Stop.

Also people who hold grudges real hard, who coincidentally happen to be the same kind of person who try wayyy to hard to win the game.

The trophy list on PS4 says, "Friday the 13: The Game". Great attention to detail there. How do you not spell the name of your own game correctly, especially on the one screen players will see almost as often as the title screen? How was that never caught?

It probably was caught at some point, but typos in the text are always way down on the priority list for fixes. That's why so many big-ticket games ship with really blatant copy-editing mistakes in the subtitles; something else commanded more developer attention, and there are only so many hours in the day.

What exactly does a 'good' Jason do in the first 5 minutes or so? My matches as Jason seem to be really hit or miss. Generally I go and trap the fusebox and break all the windows and maybe the doors on that cabin, go and put a trap or two by the car, and after that I just try to hunt people down but I'm frequently not very effective and only get 3/8.

I guess my frustration is, what am I supposed to do in that situation? It feels wrong that my best option at that point is to tediously go one by one through houses and hiding spots. Though if you're right that just being near the counselor's hiding spot is enough to get their fear up and make the house start lighting up on Sense (I've yet to actually be in that situation myself, so I don't know how it works), that would make things a little more bearable.


I went through and broke all the power boxes pretty early on, which nobody ever fixed. If it's already dark, and they get into a hiding spot, will their fear still go up?

Yes, sort of. If they have a good night owl perk and possibly one or two of the perks that make them have a chance to just not appear on sense then it won't matter much. It sounds like maybe the person you were playing had the latter? I've got one at 25% to not show up on sense, and then one that gives me a faster crouch-walking speed and another 10% to not show up on sense. I also don't use them because that seems like bullshit baby perks for making the game not fun.

Find the phone building and break down all the doors. Double trap the fusebox and trap the cars. Windows are to be broken when there are people inside them.

I still feel that the best thing for this game would be for Jason's grab to become active when counselors are hurt and/or scared enough. Right now you don't see most of the counselors played because most of their stats mean jack poo poo against a Jason who morphs ontop of them, grabs, and mashes the one key which most pub Jason's do. Make it so a counselor has to be scared enough to glow on sense to be grabable.

Yeah from the sounds of it this is going to be a really bad problem because all it takes is being in a lobby with a hacker and as a bonus they don't even need a legit copy of the game. It also isn't going to be a fast fix most likely because they're bringing in an outside company for some reason.

The main road (either at the top or the bottom of the map) exits the map at two points. The cops will randomly show up at one of the two. You chose poorly.
