I completely agree. The game, just like the films, looks rough around the edges but a whole lot of fun. I'll be spending all weekend on this. Is there enough interest here to get a PC group going?

You gave me the idea of "I know what you played this summer" as a quote. It is in line with the type of horror movie, and it kind of fits ha
 
Just read this. Actually changed my perspective quite a bit:

http://forum.f13game.com/index.php?/topic/4235-early-access-to-pressstreamers

The usual "we need money" line that every publisher/developer has been doing since ever. Backers should get the same early access as press/streamers because we fucking made it happen, without our money there wouldn't even BE press/streamers to play the game. He says new audience means potentially new sales, well if that's true, backers should have access so they can stream it as well and play with their friends. I've seen that guy's excuse used for so many years now and all it does is piss off its customer base in the long run. Next time, I won't be backing another project from these guys knowing I'm just there to make their money-hungry dreams happen.
 
judging by the streams its not going to get reviewed very well simply because they are trying to charge an almost new game price.....but it will be one of those games you play when your drunk and want to have fun with your mates

Hopefully it survives long enough to add more content...the most common complaint is that its not really that deep gameplay wise and is very clunky

not sure if it $40 worth of fun though
 
So like...this or dead by daylight? If anyone knows.

After watching streams all day yesterday, I say this. Friday has a lot of bugs and presentation issues, but I feel like there are a lot more opportunities for teamwork and emergent gameplay in this game. Dead by Daylight, while having higher production values and less bugs, quickly devolved into people sprinting away to infinite chase positions. So ultimately it depends on what you're looking for. Personally, the license gives this one the edge for me.

streamers are using a preview build no idea after the patch tomorrow if it will be as buggy as what is shown in the streams or not

Really excited for this game, the animations need some work but overall I'm really liking what I see on the twitch streams. Hopefully over the next year or so they can polish this game up and add more content.

Does this game allow groups to queue together? Do they do anything to prevent party chat or teamspeak kinda stuff from ruining the immersion?

So you're ignoring the fact that there's a finite number of press keys they are allowed to have and there's no way to give backers early access?

At first I was upset that some shithead twitchers got early access over backers but then I realized its press keys. Though instead of sending them to video game review sites and magazines etc it's the new era. More kids probably watch these people than read a review.
