Game really needs dedicated servers and host migration asap. Every game I played yesterday ended within minutes because of losing connection to host or Jason getting disconnected.

sorry i did not see the last page as i stopped playing the game, didn't know my statement would be discussed for a whole page

some people call me a hypocrite for saying that i like to Troll my teammates and then i said the removal of TK was a big mistake because the game has too many trolls, what i said is obvious, i'm a person who sometimes likes to play normal and when i get bored i like to troll my teammate, i know i'm not alone, there are Dozens of us! Dozens!, so by removing TK, it's hard to deal with players like me

keep in mind that Friday 13th is not a competitive game, that's why there are a lot of trolls in there, you wouldn't call me a troll if i trolled you in GTA online because the game is based on trolling, same thing for F13th before the patch, it used to be a game about fun, no pressure, now they turned it into a boring scripted game, i don't know if some of you played R6S Before it was a big thing, i played it at release day before people knew how good the game was, and the game was filled with TK and trolling, not just me, i haven't played the game in a long time but the last time i played were all newcomers and there is a ban and you get kicked if you trolled immediately now, so the game has changed from what i described that i used to do, the beginning of R6S was hilarious, too many missed on it

i'll add another method, of how i used to play Forza Motorsport 5 when i got bored, when the race start, i go backward, find a long tight road, act AFK, and when the first place comes close, i turn and crash into him and turn him from 1st place to like 6th of 8th, and i get a lot of cursing, it was fun, but i don't play FM anymore

you people take gaming too seriously, just enjoy the moment and share the laughs, if you encounter players like me, you have 2 choices:
1- quit like a bad sport
2- join the fight, take your revenge and share the laughs like a good sport

last thing, you are welcome to criticize me, but please keep it polite, we're all friends who share a common hobby

You literally sound like you are 10. “My brain can’t handle the game anymore, so let me ruin it for the other people who are still attempting to play it properly.”

Having to stay until the end of the match to get xp is getting old really fast!

I don't mind watching other people play, and I don't even mind when people use that time to try and do something ambitious like kill Jason. But when one counselor just decides to just abandon all sense and either hide or run around for 12 minutes when the cops have already arrived, it drives me nuts.

I watched someone with two pocket knives just run from house to house instead of going for the exit, wasting both pocket knives and 12 minutes of everyone's time before Jason got them with 30 seconds to go. At that point, I think everyone was happy to see them go down.
 
This update is a game-changer. Now as a Counselor, it doesn't feel unfair when you die in certain situations. When you die, the person playing as Jason outsmarted you. Thanks to Jason's reduced grab range and area: shift+grab usage has decreased significantly, Jason can't grab you from ten feet away, and people who disconnect during kills won't prevent Jason from earning XP. Combat is actually vital now to survival; combat is manageable for all counselors and it feels rewarding to successfully combat Jason. Playing as Jason now means that you will have to use all of your tools at your disposal and fool counselors to win. Gone are the days of cheesy tactics that many Jason players have used. I haven't had this much fun since release. Gun and Illfonic did a great job on this patch.

Now, if only hiding was reworked and improved...

Also, dedicated servers for consoles are needed so badly.

Downloading the patch as we speak. Excited to see what improvements have been made. Also interested to use Fox in a game or two!
 
So the new kills added are $3 each dlc? Yikes

Yeah, and you can even see certain kills on the map even if you haven't bought it. My friend was Jason last night and he picked up a counselor next to a screwdriver, but there was no prompt. I didn't realize it was paid DLC at the time.

Edit: Wait, a minute. Maybe it was just glitched? I'm seeing 3 kills for Part 4 and none were screwdriver. Weird.
 
Games are on Sale on Steam. Why has this game not even 10% of the players Dead by Daylight has?

DBD has been out longer, cheaper, and been on sale many many times, including being part of a huge humble bundle deal for cheap while back.

This is the first sale for F13th since release.

The environmental kills are free to all, the new dlc kills are different

So I've decided to give this game another try and I'm happy I did. I posted awhile ago that I was out because it was so broken, and the community was beyond toxic. But they are trying to fix it, rooms immediately kick sqeuakers and grievers, and this new content is pretty cool.

Paranoia seems to resemble a TK style match that we used to run before it was axed. Basically one counselor is the killer and not Jason, and they would run the map setting traps and trying to kill the other counselors.

This is perfect for Part V seeing as Roy was a copy cat killer. It's a great solution to those that enjoyed aspects of running their own TK style matches.

I don't believe this has to be said, but the TK types of games we played had the entire lobby involved. We didn't just start killing ppl randomly. Everyone knew what was happening and was in agreement with it. Added new levels of excitement to the game instead of just cat and mouse. I'm glad the devs are trying to take care of the players that want more from this game than just OP Jason vs kids.

This is generally good news for the game, but bad news for me as I was already horrible at being Jason prior to this patch. I really wish there was a "practice" mode so I could get better on my own time but I suppose that's what single player will essentially be.

Let me tell you how fucking awesome it is to be Jason and not have warp function as intended. I cannot believe this game is still this broken.

The Jason trap nerf is fine but the grab nerf is to much, I don’t mind the items showing up on the map now for counslers but that was enough. Jason is supposed to be over powered and he’s not now. Honesty might take a break from this game or switch preference to counsler unless they fix his grab.... also host disconnects are so frustrating and can’t believe nothing has been done about that still

I imagine it being something like that, a player is secretly Jason and perhaps somehow is revealed and the player like "morphs" into part 5 Jason or something. Like visually the character changed from counselor into part 5 Jason if they attack or use a Jason power

Don't worry guys dedicated servers are coming in October! It's only the end of the month and not a word about that. Meanwhile here's some dlc well push out whole the game still continues to be a buggy mess.

Stuff is still messy, but they have turned it around a lot, and current state of game personally is at it's best so far. The server/host situation is priority obviously, but this time of year is also the time for them to be pushing out heavy marketing for it, and putting out lot of free updates, dlc, and pimping future content is helpful to them.

The game isn't all that mich better than where it was a few months ago. Jason's abilities randomally stop working and on top of the nerfs that makes him underpowered. Host quitting should have been priority 1 after that got the matchmaking fixed but they continue to let almost every game quit out because they wanted to put in dedicated servers and are nowhere close to doing so. Them pumping dlc infuriates me as a day 1 buyer. They shouldn't be asking for extra money in order to fix stuff that never should have been broken in the first place.

Yea I'd imagine who ever finds the blue hockey mask gets to have the Jason V powers. Not really powerful compared to Jason himself, but more powerful than the other counselors for sure. Or maybe they will just randomly spawn with the mask and some cool powers. I can imagine a faster run, quicker use of weapons, and maybe even stuff like sabotaging cars, boats, and phone boxes.

I think it's a cool idea, and even though the game still has a bunch of problems, it's evident that Gun is trying to fix the game. They started out as an incredibly small team and have been able to grow and learn a lot from this game. It's crazy what they've been able to implement in the few months the game has been out and it's only going to get better from here.

I don't care what anyone says. There's nothing else out there like it right now. F13 is extremely unique, and it's obvious the devs have a strong passion for the films. As a long time fan of the franchise, I can only continue to help them make this game the best it can be.

I absolutely love the idea of the mask randomly spawning and the first player to find it being able to use it.
