People diss on Part 5 being poo poo and unwanted, but I would love a map that has sections of the trailer park, the hicks shack and the halfway house + other barn in it.

Man, Part 5 is legit awesome and possibly my favourite in the whole series. I feel like everything clicked perfectly in it and was firing on all cylinders. People just bitch because it wasn't really Jason, but gently caress them, Roy rules!

I still think Roy could be cool as a more "mortal" Jason-as in, he can do the stuff counselors do like open windows and stuff, but has really low stun resist or something like that to balance it out.

Pamela should be an even more extreme version of that. Have stalk always be on, let Pamela interact with objects, have her right click be install kill, but in return make her killable like all other humans.

Pamela seems like she's going to be a nightmare to get right. Especially since she doesn't have the visceral look that Jason does.

At least with Roy, as someone suggested before, knocking his mask off could have an effect on how he plays from there out which could be interesting.

I feel like even though technically Jason 2/3 are "Human" It's still Jason and he still murders the gently caress out of a lot of people. Plus most people who maybe haven't seen those movies don't know Jason is kinda sorta human in those first few movies. He's not proper dead until part 6 opens and Tommy boy fucks everything up :science:

I'm still a proponent of Pamela being a stealthy killer, able to sprint, crouch, hide in hiding spots, and climb through windows, in addition to some form of "always on" Stalk where her music at least doesn't play until she attacks.

One neat thing would be that not only could she use hiding spots, but attempting to enter a hiding spot she's already in would result in instant death. Also remove flare guns and shotguns from the map so nobody can just shoot her.

"As a rule, I never touch anything more sophisticated and delicate than myself."
Pamela and Roy raise the question of what would they do if the counselors group up. That can be a handful for Jason, much less :airquote: mortal :airquote: killers

With removal of the shotgun, the angry old white woman has just one weakness, the one thing she fears the most:

I'd love to see Pamela's stalk disguise her as another counselor's model instead, and have her icon show up on the minimap like a normal counselor. I'd just really love to see Pam become a full on stealth/finesse character to go with Jason's full on brute force style :allears:

That could be interesting as you'd have to keep track of which counselors are being played and when/where you saw them last.

You'd have to change how deaths are represented on the scoreboard/players screen so that another player would need to either witness the death or find the body of that player for them show up as deceased.

I think a disguise mechanic would work as a one-time ability, comparable to a Tommy Jarvis call for the counselors. Pamela would have to kill a counselor away from the group, then use the ability which could hide the body and also hide their status on the scoreboard. But she can only stay disguised until she attacks and kills a counselor directly. But while disguised, maybe she could sabotage escape methods or even trap them. Like, if somebody tries for the phone box and messes up a prompt there could be an electric shock that does a ton of damage and knocks them out of the attempt. And of course she could also just do straightforward things like deliberately running the car into a tree.

The problem is of course that there's friendly fire. People are hurting and killing fellow counselors already, imagine how bad it's going to get if one of them is Pamela.

Imagine if Pamela could take a fixed car and just run over all the counselors.

The the only way to counteract it would be to not let her drive cars... then it's like "Hey, why don't you want to drive this car? Are you a PAMELA?!"

Yeah guys, I just don't think disguising is an idea that would work as cool as it sounds in your head. Cool-sounding ideas don't always work when you try to put them into an actual game.

Some teeth long for ripping, gleaming wet from black dog gums. So you keep your eyes closed at the end. You don't want to see such a mouth up close. before the bite, before its oblivion in the goring of your soft parts, the speckled lips will curl back in a whinny of excitement. You just know it.
In a random game last night someone came up with the idea that Chad and Lachappa's dads are old friends, and they've known each other since they were babies and are actually secretly really close. It's 100% canon for me now.

Looks like Part 7's body with Part 2's head, they imply in a response tweet that it's just a Frankenstein'd model for the mocap stuff. Could be using it to hide a new Jason while still being able to show off their rig publicly :v:
