Nah, I had something in mind at the time but then changed my mind and forgot to remove the quote. My mistake!

I finally got this... You can't remap controls?!

Nope, at least not without some sort of third-party work around. I'm okay with the controls at this point, though the only thing that annoys me is having to use the middle mouse button to throw a knife: that's always awkward.

That and the emote controls are a little bit counterintuitive. You would think that you would use the mouse button the choose the emote but you have to hold the mouse cursor over the emote you want and then hit V.

It wasn't until this very moment that I remembered that the emote option exists.

Don't feel bad, it's awkward as hell on console too. Holding up on the D-pad then spinning the right stick to choose. I seem to think Up used to bring up the player list which you have to now access from the select screen and I noticed you can't pull it up after you're dead anymore which sucks because I liked being able to quickly see who was still alive and how people died.

You also can't pull it up if you're Jason. Makes it hard to figure out how many people are left to kill.

The whole "quit after kill animation starts" problem is such an easy one to fix: make disconnects count as Jason kills. I wonder why they haven't done that already. I haven't been able to go 8/8 in weeks.

Just to slake my bloodthirst they should just go idle and have a uniquely coloured fear glow so I can FINALLY get the graveyard kill.

That's how Mortal Kombat X does it. You quit or disconnect during a match? Your character's head explodes and it's a win for your opponent.

I get tunnel vision like that as Jason but that's why I make sure I trap the objectives first thing out of the gate. Then I'm free to do whatever for like the next 8-10 minutes and only need to be reactive to any traps going off. As long as nobody's completing any escape tasks, killing only 1 or 2 people in the first ten minutes is totally fine, no need to get stressed out that you're "behind schedule" or whatever. Those last ten minutes are MUCH tougher for the counselors once your cool-downs have gone down to almost nothing, the first ten minutes as Jason is more about setting up that second half of the game and less about actually catching/killing counselors.

Holy poo poo that's awesome. That's what this game needs. If you disconnect during a Jason kill, it counts. If you disconnect outside of that? The character shoots themselves in the head and it's counted as a suicide in Jason's favor. How they do it without a gun is a mystery, but there they are...

I think you could probably work with the current animation and just have them scream and fall down. Heart attack from fear or some nonsense.

Hell you could probably add a thumping heart sound effect to the game as part of the fear mechanic, so besides the tunnel vision and loss of map you'd be able to gage your stamina from the sound queue.

If you're totally maxed out on fear and Jason is behind you, it would be a racing heart sound and if you hide it would slow down to normal. :shrug:

Makes more sense than pulling a gun out of thin air.

You think you can take me at Satan's Hollow? Go 'head on!
I think this will go down as one of my favorite online gaming moments.

Last night, I was in a match where I was a lone Kenny, most of the server left early so I decided to try and fix the two-seater by myself. I hosed up the battery, so Jason shows up shortly and he's slowly loving my poo poo up as I scramble from cabin to cabin trying to find anything useful. Eventually, something lures him away from me and I'm left on my own, limping around with no health and high fear around the northern loop of Packanack Small. So I take the road south, and see two blips hanging out in a cabin by themselves and no Jason around anywhere. When I finally get inside, it's a couple of Japanese players and they've somehow hoarded two shotguns, a flare gun and four med sprays and laid them out neatly on the floor. And I'm like "Ahh, that would explain why I found absolutely nothing useful". Despite the language barrier, I could tell they wanted me to take whatever I needed, I thanked them as best I could, then we all gathered together and made our way to the police exit. It was a long trek and one of them died, but dammit, I was alive and it was all thanks to those two.

I don't know, it was just kind of surreal the way I crawled into the window of that dark cabin and both of them were just kind of standing there looking at me like "Ehhh, you like our supplies?". Like I don't think they really planned me or the other American player to stumble across their hoard, but I'd like to think they were there to save my rear end when I needed it the most.

It could work if you put the RE Protagonists as Jason, and the counselors are zombies/cultists/ganados/low-level umbrella thugs/Wesker clones. You can't kill the protagonists since they keep using herbs to heal, and include kill animations such as Chris' boulder punch or Leon's suplex, or shoving a grenade in your mouth.

And instead of drawers or shelves, you interact with the Merchant and they open their coat to show you their goods. :v:

Which would mean every building has a bunch of random Merchants who will either give you one thing or shrug and go "Got nothin'".

And how would you kill the protag? Fulfill some condition to have someone come back as Wesker or Dr.Salvador?

The Merchants would keep their coat open, so they'd be flashing you, forever.

There's one reliable way for RE protags get a game over. You can use the ham radio to summon one of their dumb AI partners to the scene, hunt them down in the map, and kill them. :v: For Tommy, it has to be a character who's vaguely threatening enough but one you can still clown on. So either Dr. Salvador, Salazar or Alfred Ashford, maybe?

Hey, if anyone fancies it. I wrote a slasher novella and it'll be free over the weekend. The first in a series, hopefully.

This game finally got me off my rear end and got me to write this. It's heavily influenced by the Friday movies(and game) so you might get a kick out of it.
