I hate to sound whiny but this game needs a way to report players.

I'm sure everyone has had the counselor that leads Jason to all the other counselors at least once and then today I had a guy who got the car going and ran down all the other counselors. Of course he was the host so next game (I was gonna Meele him to death) he quit as soon as jason grabbed him.

Other than giant assholes though, this game is incredibly fun!

When I say the guy who run towards the other counselors I mean they're friends with whoever is playing jason and they team up to take everyone out and then make us sit there for 10 minutes while the mole counselor racks up points.

I've seen it twice, maybe it's a PS4 thing.

Trying to shake Jason by putting them on someone else isn't what I was referring too, and is of course perfectly acceptable.

but it turned out both kids had teamed up beforehand, and according to chat, the one counselor kid had tried to kill a couple of the other players and refused to call the cops. The kid playing Jason had agreed to not kill his friend as long as he helped

This is exactly what I'm talking about, thank you.

And also an excellent story I'm glad he died.

It seems like whenever someone is chasing me as Jason they catch me with no problem but when I am running with Jason I can't catch up even if they are out of stamina.

Only played as a running Jason twice though and didn't make note of which counselor I was chasing.

3 is bad mostly because of Shelley and the 3D effects looking like rear end in 2D. It's a fine early 80's slasher, but the gimmick does kinda kill some of the impact.

The bolded part definitely and I had no idea it was even supposed to be in 3D. That would explain some things though.

I enjoy the new map except the fuse is in the same place about 90% of the time.

Also, was friendly fire a thing before this patch? Because people are beating the holy hell out of each other all of a sudden and I assume that's because they turned it off.

First game after the update I got Jason and murdered everyone in like 4 minutes it was pretty great.

Best I had ever done was 5/8 (this was only my fourth time as Jason because I get anxiety about not killing anyone).

Has anybody else had the bug where they get one more kill than they should've? In one of my matches tonight, a guy escaped and I know he escaped because I was killing Tommy when he drove off. Still got 8/8.

Saw 7/6 twice today.

This game makes my PS4 sound like it's about to poo poo its pants and die as soon as rain was added.

Speaking of PS4, I've also noticed that 100% of my games now will crash straight to dashboard anytime I'm host and the lobby starts to fill up. Like I can only play by joining other sessions now

The only issue I have as a PS4 player is that i get connection errors about 1/4 of the time and it’s a real son of a bitch if it happens while I’m spectating because I either escaped and have a bunch of points coming or I died and have been sitting here watching other people play for 10 minutes only to get skunked.

That and people who run everyone over with the car if they don’t get Jason are my only complaints.

Anyone on ps4 finding the random counselor / Jason selection to not be very random? It seems like every time I sit down to play a few rounds I'll just roll the same thing every single match. This makes me sad when I wind up playing as Kenny and J3 all evening.

I got Jenny Myers so often I took random off.

I chose Adam and then it randomly spawned me next to the cabin with the fuse 5 games in a row. So that was nice.

Apparently there's a comic that takes place between 8 and 9 that says "yeah the baby thing didn't happen, also Jason walked back to Crystal Lake", so at least there's that

Now I want a movie of Jason’s walk back to CCL from Manhattan.

Maybe that’s where he learned about weed.

Or, in the case of goon counselors, feast on the influx of newbie Jasons.

This has been my experience. I think I only played one match out of 8 or 9 where Jason killed all the counselors and half the time they killed 2 or less.

I had a good time is what I’m saying.

Unfortunately on PS4 the only people with mics are 10 year olds so trying to organize a kill is nearly impossible in a public match.

Today would have been the perfect time. I’ve still never seen it done and only attempted once (Jason wasn’t ever brought to his knees).

For whatever reason I’ve been playing like a true Friday counselor today.

On multiple occasions I had an easy escape and decided to try and do fancy things for points or attack Jason from behind to help other counselors.

I was murdered every single time.

I don’t play Jason that often but for those that do is Jarvis House the worst map? Just played it as the big guy for the first time and can’t tell if it was so tough because of the map or because there was only 4 counselors.

I had heard other people complain about it in the chat. Part of my trouble like I said, is that there was only 4 counselors, so they all seemed to have 15 pocket knives and med sprays.

3/5 was disappointing. Even though I probably only pull Jason once a week at worst I get 6/8,usually I get everyone though.

Yesterday I played with a group that had Jason with his mask off, in front of Tommy, girl with a sweater, and like 3 other counselors.

I was so pumped that I was gonna knock him to his knees and get in on the kill.... then the girl with the sweater just took off and Jason killed us all one by one.

At least you PC people don’t have to fear that you’ll kill the host too early and have the game dropped or that you’ll go through fixing multiple things and escape by car or boat only to have the host rage quit and get not a single drat point for your hard work.

The only counselor badge I don’t have is escape on the boat 13 times. Whenever I play a map with a boat it’s my only mission, I’d rather die than get out by police or car.

I’ve played on Jarvis map looking for the propellor with 2 other counselors for the full 20 minutes and none of us can find it. Start in the cabin with the propellor and Jason morphs right to me and spends 6 minutes chasing me around before he finally gets me. Other Shennagins.

Both times I played as Jason today? Boat fixed and gone within 3-5 minutes.

I don’t know anyone who plays this so I have to bitch to you all sorry.

It doesn't matter if you're hands are empty but you have to have a pocket knife to do this and you won't be able to use it afterward.

Being able to chop down doors with 3 strikes early give you the ability to really open up all the cabins though.
