Preload has begun. BackerKit users check your digital download codes for your Steam key! I don't believe the DLC codes have been sent yet.

Where was the key

 

[ianpm31]

Going to buy this on ps4. I just hope its a good port because everything I've seen is from the pc version

 

[Xaero Gravity]

Uuuugh the wait until Friday is brutal.

Backerkit, log in then select your pledge level and you'll see the code under digital downloads.

That dynamic hair! That chick has, since her introduction, been preordained to be the character I and my oldest daughter main. She reminds us of Violet from part 5, and we fucking LOVE Vi.

This is getting me through this week. I bought a 1080 like 4 months ago and, since then have picked up a PS4 Pro. I kickstarted this for a PC code and am kind of kicking myself now. Anyone know, are they going to directly kick this to your Steam account somehow, or will I be able to sell the code for a slight discount and use the funds for the PS4 version?

Seems silly, but it just seems like the kind of game I'd like to play on a console. I know these games, new though they are, are usually aimed at a PC community. All this said, this running at 4k on the Pro will make all the difference. The beta looked fucking AMAZING in 4k on PC. Guys, this is really a dream come true for me. All my life I've been waiting for something like this. My kids keep asking if it's out yet, and I've had to keep telling them "Early 2017!".

End of May is a hard sell as "Early 2017". I'm at a fever pitch here. The developers are the only Twitter account I have set up to give me a notification when they post.

Up until today, you could have emailed them and asked them to switch your code to a PS4 code D:

Got it thanks. Got steam key. Waiting on ps4 key and tom savini skin.

Are they up for Consoles? All that's listed is my Beta and the Wallpaper pack. :/

Edit: Thx guys.

They're still waiting for Sony to provide them with keys, but they estimate it will be before Friday.

No, Steam only atm according to a recent tweet on the game's official twitter page.

How has this game been shaping up? I like the concept but the beta looked like it ran pretty poorly and had obvious balance issues. Just looked real rough around the edges.

I'd recommend spending an hour or so watching this guys' videos he made of the game over the last few months. The devs have added, changed and removed features from the beta to make it a "beta" game (pun intended). Stuff like hair physics, new Jason abilities, new characters to play as, new Jasons, new weapons, traps, abilities, animations, etc...

 

[drotahorror]

Streamers and media get access to the game tomorrow @ 12pm EST.

Thanks, I'll glimmer at a couple of streams to see any other differences they haven't talked about yet.

Question: Are they going to tweak Jason's teleportation? Just seen a video of him teleporting everywhere with only a 20 sec cool down. Pretty op but I guess it makes sense because he's op in the movies lol

Different Jasons have different cooldowns, the ones with a -1 to their Morph ability will have a larger cooldown. Jasons with +1 have a shorter cooldown.

Oh okay thanks

I did the early bird digital camper on kickstarter, have they said when we get keys? I got it for xbox one

 

[BattleMonkey]

So does this release have the single player aspect they delayed the game for? Or is that something coming in a later update?

 

[JDHarbs]

If you are a Kickstarter or Backerkit backer and you got a Steam key; we are sending your pre-load keys now. Console backers, stay tuned.

They're still waiting for Microsoft to give them X1 keys.

Multiplayer only at launch. Single player sometime this summer.

Anyone know if the single player will be free or a paid addon?

Free update!

Irene, you've led me astray

Ah well, we live and we learn.

 

[Xaero Gravity]

So I emailed the devs earlier today asking about PS4 Pro support, and they just responded and let me know that unfortunately they haven't optimized it for the Pro yet, but "we'll see". A bit unfortunate but I can understand considering they're such a small team. Hopefully it comes post launch.

 

[Lord Frieza]

Is there any way to buy this now or are only Kickstarter people able to? I'm looking at the site and don't see anything.

There's no console pre-ordering, only Steam.

As of right now the only available purchase option is Steam (people who purchased or backed for PC/Steam version can now pre-load the game), but supposedly it will be available for purchase on both PSN & Xbox Live this coming Friday. Down the road they will supposedly be releasing a physical version in stores (people who backed for a physical copy on Kickstarter or through Backerkit will also be receiving them down the road...personally I'm hoping the physical version for backers will start shipping out by early July), but for right now (at launch) it's essentially digital only.

To help hold you dudes over I found this interview with Wes on the buildup to launch and the difficulties Gun has been facing. Interesting vid.

Is this game digital only? I see nothing on Amazon?

Digital release first. No idea when they will release the physical version. Part of me thinks they're waiting to have the single player ready before doong the physical release.

 

[Xaero Gravity]

Embargo is officially up, GameSpot will be streaming it in a bit.

 

[matrixman92]

lol god damn this games achievements

Play 1,000 multiplayer matches as Jason
Play 1,000 multiplayer matches as a counselor

i dont think any game in my life has kept my attention for as long as that requires

 

[Ragarra]

Early access is up, lots of twitch streams up.

How did one get early access?

 

[Ragarra]

Not sure, probably from kickstarter.

 

[The Last Wizard]

Liking what I'm seeing so far, will need to hear impressions about PS4 version though.

 

[Xaero Gravity]

Streamers were sent keys.

 

[The Last Wizard]

Jason seems too op, counselors are getting dropped left and right.

single player is not ready at launch?

Nope.

 

[Sephzilla]

Good. When I watched beta streams it seemed like counselors survived way too often

 

[Plumpbiscuit]

Good. Councelors were surviving too often in the beta.

 

[Kwansu Dudes]

Jason seems too op, counselors are getting dropped left and right.

As it should be. Games were lasting too long due to Jason sucking

 

[Plumpbiscuit]

I'm watching a stream, the new maps seem too small and the both look alike... forest with a lake and a few cabins, doing the same objectives? I can't see the water speed ability for Jason being useful at all.

 

[zackmorris]

This game looks insanely janky. Those animations/character movements/environmental interaction are just awful. The part with the girl on the phone at the end of the trailer...

Im a huge Friday fan, so I still think the game seems fun, but Ill probably be waiting to see the single player when it launches before I buy this.

 

[Navi]

Almost forgot about this game. Oh joy!

The single player will just be challenge missions where you play as Jason.


And yeah, the animations are pretty janky, but the team is like 12 people so I can't be too critical of them.
