Could smashing all the generators at the beginning be potentially less effective than waiting? The initial smash will get a spike of fear out of anyone nearby, I'm assuming (based on the voice cues), but once the lights are out you can avoid the fear buildup by keeping your flashlight on. Plus, you don't even have sense yet at the beginning, which gives the counselors time to lose their fear. Seems like it might be better to save a generator smash until you know you're near a group of counselors, and then you can quickly pop on sense and chase people down.

Finally had an awful run, going 2/8 as Part 2 Jason. I've never played him before and I still can't believe how slow his Shift is. I just couldn't keep up with anyone, and with the police called within 3 minutes I stood no chance.

Does anyone have an old PC that we can ship to Burk, I cannot even watch those videos.

He's a very nice guy who just wants to play with goons at a double digit framerate.

Please help, god bless.

Annnd it crashes during the intro video now, 100% of the time.
Online session interface missing, please make sure Steam is running!

Verifying files shows one is corrupt, but the redownloaded one has the same issue.

I guess it makes sense that I would be hosting Science Camp.

One day we're going to go jousting. How many flare guns and shotguns can we get in one map?

He's blocking the emotions.


I really appreciate counselors who try to fight Jason. They're mostly crap, but yesterday we had a game where we just kept wailing on Jason and knocking him down or stunning him until the timer ran out after almost 2 minutes.

I got to knock him out with a pot today but forgot to come up with a pun to yell.

It's stupid to engage Jason in melee unless you have a pocket knife, right?

I was all set to rent a bunch of the F13 movies on Amazon to take the thread advice and watch more, but lo and behold, Starz has a bunch of them and I was able to get a 7 day free trial through Amazon! Going to watch at least 1-3 this weekend. If I'm not particularly fond of slasher flicks, are any of the others must watch? I'm guessing I should at least watch all the ones with Tommy Jarvis, eh?

I have never seen one of these people actually survive the match, personally. But yeah, it is poo poo and makes me wonder why they would even play. Besides Jason kill unlocks and perk stuff points are not super important and if you are spending your game time in walls perks are not doing you much good anyway.

Ok so on an unrelated note are Pamela tapes even real?? I thought I saw something that said they only could be found on Fridays but I played pretty much all day yesterday and found gently caress all. I should have found at least one you game developer bastards

I have one for 15% reduction and it changes precisely gently caress all.

Wait, this is a thing?

are you being willfully dense

i asserted that if he is mashing numbers to kill you as soon as possible he is going to kill you regardless of your perk setup

like i've had this perk and have tested it under entirely ideal circumstances, it does not make any difference at all. whether it's because the perk is broken like grease monkey or just low enough magnitude that even 15% makes no practical difference, i dunno, but it makes no difference whatsoever.

A low composure probably means death anyway, but I can often escape with high composure characters if they even think about going for a special kill. With the perk I know I could get out on the 10 composure characters at least once.

Anyone knows how to prevent or what causes the UE4-SummerCamp Game .exe crash a lot? This is getting bothersome, had like 12 crashes this weekend.

Okay, I've come to expect one-or-two players to drop from the game when they find out they're not Jason, but five? Is it even a game at that point?

Also informing Jason of glitching players and forming an impromptu truce to dislodge them never gets old.

I finally got around to watching the first F13 movie last night, and holy poo poo Pamela That scene where Alice is in the closet, and Pam slams a hole in the door and just smiles at her

Also lol strip monopoly though

I know this game is choc-a-bloc with bugs, but has anybody else had trouble setting a trap right in front of a door? Is that just a thing that's always been fucky and I didn't know because I never set traps as a counselor? Whenever I try to set a trap inside a cabin in front of the door I always drop it at chest height and then can't set it.

King Vidiot posted:

It's probably MORE fun with randos than it would be with friends, because of the constant change of people and the chemistry (or lack thereof) of the various groups you're tossed into. None of my friends are brave or foolhardy enough to dive into a $40 game, I guess due to lack of interest or the price or thinking "it's a 'knock-off' of Dead by Daylight" or whatever.

It's like they don't believe me when I tell them how awesome it is. Like I thought it just looked "okay" from watching streams but it wasn't until I played it that it really clicked. And watching streams is even better because now I get it.

e: But as a fair warning, you will occasionally be a Jason against an Organized Team of Friends who all pick counselor preference and you WILL get your rear end handed to you. Sometimes you'll run into cocky YouTube Superstars who are surly and uncooperative and fishing for Highlight Reel Moments, who will not help you when you need it and will just be out for themselves and will rage quit if Jason grabs them. But I'd say 99% of the people you play with will be cool and chill.

Quick Match is such trash, at least one fuckboy leaves immediately during the cinematic when he sees that he's not Jason, leading to immediate cascade failure. Do these retards even have any self-awareness whatsoever or do they sit there and bitch when half of the players leave when they finally get to play as Jay?

game theory fucken sucks because people are trash
