Wasn't there something with a newborn fetus in part 9? This is why Part 9 isn't cannon.

If I remember correctly Jason could be reborn through the baby because it was a descendent of the Voorhees bloodline, also Creighton was using her for bait and leverage.

How's this for irony: the only time I can recall Jason being depicted as killing children was in the NES(!) Friday the 13th.

Even in the ONE film to have actual children in it (FVJ doesn't count, dream sequence) Jason merely walks in, looks around, and leaves.

Part 4 I suspect would get -Stun Resist, -Grab Strength, and -Knives, but +Running, +Defense, and +Destruction. And a goddamn machete, for christ's sake.

Bringing this old post up, this was the first time I remember attempting to come up with Part 4 stats... let's see how correct I was!

+Run ✓
+Destruction ✓
+ Defense Weapon Strength

- Stun Resist Water Speed
- Grab Strength Shift
- Knives Traps

...hey, two of six ain't bad right? :smithicide:

People have made that argument, that Jason influenced Roy.

Though honestly I think Roy just went nuts. His MO was nothing like Jason. Jason would have tracked down the person who pissed him off the most first, after all. We know that thanks to Alice!

I don't think the movie itself offers any more of an explanation than that Roy's a copycat killer, which is probably enough to be getting on with.

Wikipedia says that the novelization of the sixth movie is the source of the Jason influence argument, but of course, canon is a hazy thing in this franchise.

I keep seeing people saying Roy's just a regular guy and can't work with the normal Jason mechanics since he's not an invincible monster, but they know he ate a chainsaw to the chest and a loving bulldozer running him down, right? :psyduck:

Or it might have been a machete slash to the chest, either way he fought a chainsaw and came out on top. Dude's a beast.

Jason 2, 3 and 4 were just regular dudes too. The Jason powers are meant to replicate his ability to seemingly be anywhere and everywhere at once. Also why not, because in the Friday the 13th universe we had a telekinetic, dead rising from the grave, a toxic chemical which turns you into a baby, demonic possession, spaceships, and this dance:

Meh Jason tracking down the final girl from part 1 is when they were still kinda deciding what kind of character Jason was. Maybe it wasn't explicitly retconned but it's completely out of step with later movies.

Nah, Alice just hosed up royal.

Generally jason doesn't give a poo poo unless you're on his property. If you're where he believes His Land Is, he will try to run you out and then try to kill you.

If you leave, he does not care.

If he's not aware of you, he does not care. This is why the Jarvis household was fine until Jason stumbled on them. Same thing with the other camp in Part 2- they were fine right up until Jason realized people were there.


Alice? Alice killed his mom.

Alice made Jason care about her as a person.

The director had claimed it was from the rat, but people think that was a cover because of how dumb it looked and how bad it fit with her character. Ginny got spooked a couple times, but she kept her poo poo together mostly. Enough to chase Jason off with a chainsaw, and later to put on his mother's sweater in an attempt to kill him. She was pretty badass, and she certainly should not of let loose just from a the sight of a rat considering the psychopathic murderer 3 feet away. But the volume of the piss puddle suggests it's from a human.



I liked part II a lot having re-watched it recently - we got a lot of the game inspiration from that one it looks like.

Roy will work exactly like a regular Jason, only the main difference will be that instead of a cabin, you find a parked ambulance. In the ambulance is a photo of his son, that be picked up like Pams Sweater.

Using the photo will stun Roy, just like the sweater - only the main difference will be that you hold the photo up, and the audio line is his son saying 'I got two chocolate bars, see? Don't tell the girls..'

I've been thinking about Roy and his ambulance a bunch, they can even keep his jackass coworker laying dead out the driver's seat to make the player character flip poo poo, like when they notice Alice's corpse in Jason's shack. It's perfect they GOTTA add my boy Roy :saddowns:

Also I just played a round where Jason quit while I was beating his rear end and oh man I lost my poo poo afterwards at how he just crumpled. Who needs Tommy Jarvis?

All the people that smack talk Roy as 'just a regular guy' and 'wouldnt work as a Jason' need to suspend the gently caress out of their disbelief and just roll with it.

Pam I admit might need a unique game mode, but Roy works with mostly cosmetic poo poo changed. Maybe even make the photo item useable by any counselor, regardless of gender. Consider it a special weakness for him.


In other news, had a quick game last night and randomed up Chad. Spawned next to a cabin with a baseball bat. Good times. Jason appeared shortly after as it appeared the phone was nearby - so a game of deadly cat and also cat broke out.

He'd smash down a cabin door, I'd pop him with the bat, down he goes. I climb out the window.
He morphs outside, I'd pop him with the bat, down he goes. I climb into another cabin.
He smashed down the door, I'd pop him with the bat, bat breaks, down he goes. I find another bat, climb out window. He shifts outside, misses the grab, I'd pop him with the bat, down he goes.

Repeat for like, 5/6 stuns. The the last one he loudly exclaims over the mic OH FOR gently caress SAKE and morphs away. Didn't see him for the rest of the game - got in a repaired car and drove off.

Well I'd say parts 1 and 2 are the only real "grounded" entries (and I guess also part 5 minus Roy's invulnerability), and then they continue to stretch believability until it totally snaps by part 6.

So earlier tonight I had a glitch where Jason couldn’t attack, break windows grab or anything except use traps or throwing knives. It just happened again in my last game and a guy was cool enough to hit me to fix it - it happened three times in one game. Is this common or was I just really unlucky? I’ll put down that I prefer playing as counselors if I have to but although it was funny in the last game since everyone was cool I’d prefer to avoid it. Oh and in the same game when I glitched other people couldn’t interact with windows, although for them some worked and some didn’t.
