When you spawn as the radio guy, are you supposed to kill Jason or just survive?

You are just another survivor. However, my understanding is that you CAN kill him, but a lot of stuff needs to happen first (just shooting him isn't even close to enough).

Way too much stuff. Would like to attempt it some time but you have to have the perfect set of circumstances.

Fuck that. F13th 09 is a great installment and it's easily better than anything from 7 onwards.

They tried way to hard with the tropes. Here's the rich asshole boyfriend. The dumb drug dealer pot head. The girl who for some reason dates the asshole.

Jason just seemed off. Especially since he kept the girl alive.

The movie like tried to hard. Jason X at least knew it was campy and leaned into it.

I'm real trustworthy and I'll stick with a mate so we can get things done faster. However, I won't hesitate to let Jason kill you if it gets me a chance to make a break for it (which happened this morning).

Eta- the entire series is on the Starz channel on amazon. Free week before you get charged five bucks.

I generally try to free others from his grasp.

They really need to add something to make Tommy Jarvis more interesting. He's not as big a deal as he should be.

Maybe give him three shots with the gun, make it so he can't get scared.... something. It just doesn't feel like that big of a deal when he's on the scene.

Also, it just doesn't make sense that he arrives just to try and escape.

I could see them releasing a Part V Roy-Jason along with the halfway house map. Make him good with knives, traps, and Stalk but have everything else low. You could include the halfway house, the hillbillies' house, a few random cabins, and the diner.

Wishful thinking, though.
This would be wonderful. Motherfucker better have a context kill where he crushes your skull with a belt. Personally, 5 is one of my faves!

Hell, I've got the film reproduction hanging in my living room next to the NES reproduction from NECA. One fine day I'm gonna hang them in my office.

Douchebag. Yes, me.
Is there anything you need to do to use the pocket knife, or does it trigger whether you have it selected or not?

Yeah I totally get this. Maybe he should come with an item already to help others escape that's not the shotgun.
 
Wow all of a sudden I can't find a Game.

Usually after like 10 minutes of searching it will just make me a host, but I let it go for like 21 minutes.

First time since day 1 on ps4 I can't find a game.

I agree he should have found his sister dead and it would have been fine.

Okay the glitches were funny in the beginning but now it's just annoying. How are you gonna freeze on the scoreboard when I'm trying to drive holy shit
 
Waited 15 minutes to get dropped into a game that was a laggy mess and got disconnected. Waited another 15 minutes to get dropped into a room and was promptly kicked out. Now waiting going on 5 minutes. Jesus H Christ what a mess this launch is
 
I've played enough games to realize that all 3 escape possibilities(2 cars and a boat) have to be on every single map especially with the addition of traps. I've spawned into too many games where the phone and the car are at the same camp that it makes it too much of a joke. On Packanack if the car spawns at the lodge and Jason teleports he is literally right in front of you. Can't do shit with the car.
 
Had my first run in with a griefer.

Trapped inside of a pantry by a Buggzy with a pipe. Heard Jason outside. After telling him multiple times to move, I warm him one last time that I'll pop him with my bat. I do. He retaliates and fucks me up, finally talking into the mic. I kept trying to escape him, but he kept blocking my way. Eventually, Jason came up and killed me while completely ignoring him.

Thanks, assholes!

is anyone else just not getting to play as Jason anymore?

First day I was getting Jason like once every 5'ish matches or so. Now I'm lucky to get to play as Jason in 1/20 matches.

They really need a better system for determining who plays as Jason.

First have a split based on spawn preference, so the people who have it set to Jason at put at top. Then have it look at recent games and go by who hasn't played Jason the longest, put them at the top.

I don't know wtf happened but now I can run the game at 1080p uprendered 150% at all medium with epic view distance and I'm getting 40+fps.

It's really odd. To my admittedly limited understanding, there's no way that backend networking fixes could improve my performance, especially so drastically. Am I correct in that assumption? It's a strange, but nice, little bonus I guess.

Also, I wonder how well the Savini Jason sold. Ever since it started working I'm the only Savini I've seen AT ALL. He's crazy powerful!

And Jason raped Chris in part 3. Him keeping a girl made sense. And characters are tropes in F13? No...Can't believe that.
