I go for the boat a lot as a counselor because it only takes 2 parts and you can pull off nutty 2-minute escapes if the cards fall just right.

It's a HUGE gamble though, especially in pubbie games because the other counselors are very, very liable to just straight up tell Jason to check his map for the boat in order to get him off them, and most pubbie Jason's I've seen will go for it every single time no matter what else is happening. Like I've literally seen Jason go to the boat while four other counselors immediately got in the car and drove off. There's some kind of weird compulsion there.

That's one of the reasons I like Deborah; if you can find the parts it's hell of easy to ninja that thing off the map. Why yes I do have the "Chad Is a Dick" achievement. Why do you ask?

If you're going into a match with the attitude of: "I want to knock Jason on his rear end as often as possible" then you ought to roll Chad.

Chad has the highest weapon durability (based on luck) of anyone in the game, tied with Tommy. Pair this with an epic "Man at Arms" perk, thick skin, and the first aid perk of your choice. Now find a baseball bat and you can get something like 8 hits on it.

Just the ladies, now!
I was killed four or five minutes into a match, so I settled in to spectate the rest of the match. One of the other counselors seemed to be AFK, as they didn't move for the next ten minutes. Everyone else died, except for this guy. I don't know whether Jason was having trouble finding him, or if he was being deliberately ignored.

When there was eight minutes left on the clock, I finally got tired of waiting and disconnected.

I wish that the game would just kick anyone that doesn't touch their controller for more than a minute or two. Ideally, the player would be replaced by an AI that tries to protect other players by blocking Jason's attack with his face.

This only works if you refer to your bat as Excalibat and yell your holy weapon's name into the mic as you use it

so the boxes for the retail, physical versions of this game advertise Bloody Jason skins(for every Jason, probably minus Savini) and another set of exclusive counselor DLC outfits as exclusive bonuses for owning the physical version of the game. im not sure if theres a physical PC version though? i get the impression this stuff got put up for preorder before the devs realized it would and they'll be talking about it soon.

but hopefully once that's all sorted out we'll see some actual non-cosmetic content for this thing


edit: this just went up

is Hillbrook the abandoned camp map? the overgrown sign doesnt look familiar

looks like there's no physical PC version though so i'm not sure how PC people will get the bloody jason skins and the new outfits

That's what would make sense, but I don't know how seriously they want to consider the new skins as 'exclusive' to the physical versions. It's not like they affect gameplay or anything. But it would still suck if they're locked away on PC

Camp Hillbrook is more interesting than anything.

It's the only hint of a new map because everything else in the trailer was at one of the three we already know about.

They better make it available for PC/Consoles for those us who already bought it or there will be such wave of screaming.

Hell, I don't even mind spending $5-10 on a DLC pack to help support the game, but I'm not dropping another $40 for a physical copy of the game. I want to support this game because its fun as hell, but I'm not that big of a Friday fan that I can justify owning a physical copy.

Also isn't Hillbrook just one of the names of the camp areas on one of the maps? If they actually get some new content (aside from the "Retail Exclusive" poo poo) ready for when the disc drops, I'll be happy but I'm not going to hold my breath.

Seems like a Jason Takes Manhattan themed map is inevitable, seeing as how he's the only Jason skin that currently exists but that didn't really spend any time in and around Camp Crystal Lake in his movie. They aren't gonna just randomly do a space ship map if they can't also get the rights to Uber-Jason.

Is the Reddit PC Master Racists TM already screaming that if the consoles get bloody Jason exclusively that we should get him and Savini for free?

Edit: they have Jason X rights, it was announced in the Kickstarter, but the content including the Grendel, Uber, and several related kills was stretch goal locked.

Ok well I assume then that since the game has been more successful than they expected it to be, that they'll give us Jason X eventually.

Yeah, they've already included content that was locked as stretch goals. I think they're going to work on all of their stretch goals as time goes on and as long as they have the team and budget.

Probably. I haven't bothered to look, but I'm almost certain that the people who can't stop complaining about this game are continuing to complain.

And after playing this thing for 158 hours since launch, I can say I got my $40 worth and I am happy with the game, minor complaints aside.

Looking forward to whatever new content they release because the game desperately needs it, and I can't wait to see what the poo poo lords find to complain about next.

He doesn't show signs of fatigue, either. Still doing stunt work even now. The man is a bad customer you do not want to gently caress with.

And from everything I've heard, he's an incredibly nice dude to boot.

And doing mocap is probably considerably easier than doing normal stunt work.

Considering how much of this game relies on cabins and window diving, I have no clue how a Grendel/Boat map would work but goddamnit just give us any kind of carrot on a stick to keep me wanting to play.

Interior maps with multiple floors are likely off the table too because it would wreak havoc on Morph. I'm sure a boat map COULD be done, but it would take some planning.

A boat map could be done, the 'morph map' limitation isn't that hard to solve if you use cross sections of the ship to represent 'levels'.

And doing a Manhattan map, everyone is going to ask for Times Square, which will never happen - But a dock/port map utilising warehouses/alley ways on the waters edge would suit the game beautifully. You can even have front gates 'locked' like it's after hours to represent the 'invisible' wall of the level, a repairable boat as an escape option and a phone booth as the cop phone. So much cross over that would work with existing stuff.

I was thinking of something that wouldn't be that big of a stretch. How about the rural town area around Crystal Lake, like the bar or restaurant or some residential houses like in Part 6? It's not as interesting as a boat or a city or a space station, but it'd still work better thematically and logistically than any of those.

Or hell, do the remake map. Jason's cabin/house across the lake and then some smaller houses and one big summer house on the other side.

Maybe Part 4 Jason?

He'd be the easiest to use. He basically has the same arms and lower body as part 3, mostly the same mask. Upper body and head are totally different but still.

He also uses a knife more than any other Jason, IE I can think of like once when he did it. Stabbed that hippie chick right in the back of the neck.

Playing as Jason Pt 2 QP, and I'm down to the last Vanessa. She's punking the poo poo out of me by running around a dining room table while my shift attempts are absolute garbage. She managed to get down to the 2-minute warning with this stupid tactic.

Just as time runs out, she taunts me by running straight at me.

Fade to black. But I'm still clicking, and she's taking damage.
