I have been playing this game since launch was a backer so I will give my 2 cents, yes it’s very easy to kill Jason , it is one of the easiest things to do in this game. What people have to now understand is that this game is no longer about trying to survive as a counselor this is not challenging at all anymore, I look at it as a challenge to kill everyone while not being killed as Jason, that is what this game is now and it’s not going to change. People can adapt to it and have fun with as I learned to do, or be pissed off(like I used to be) it is what it is.

Seriously I see it happen several times a day, especially in lobbies full of rank 150's. Jason feels weak in the game against an organized group of pro players. Super stamina Vanessa will grab the sweater. Someone will willingly die or suicide to come back as Tommy. Then you have your Adams, Bugzys etc demasking him easily with machetes and baseball bats. Probably all running the slugger perk. I don't know which scenario is worse. Seeing Jason go down so easily, or seeing him stay away and hide from the group chasing him to kill him after they've unmasked him. The antithesis of Jason from the movies.

I don't have a definite answer, but I have noticed a lot of times if I don't have a shit ton of room and the ground is not flat, only the head punch kill lights up as available. Sometimes pulling off a cinematic kill is as difficult as getting someone close enough to an object to perform an environmental kill.

I love the machete kills. Have fun with it! My favorite kill by far is "The Pamela."

Have you noticed when you have prep. equipped they’re in every3-5 drawers?

Preparedness. I'd spend a good 5 minutes looking for a map in drawers or locating the map station -- sometimes dying before locating one. Immediately gave it to every counselor.

Works perfectly, thanks for the help. Just purchased and I’m really excited to try it out.

Very intriguing @PowellCampsNAKED.

Preparedness.

Using a mic is an option. There are players who play fine without one. While it is tougher on players who don't use mics, emotes and other forms of communication exist. As far as complaints about bugs and cheaters, you can send them with evidence to jasonkillsbugs.com

I know the patch has left a number of people bitter. I also know there are players still surviving as various counselors. I think sharing some success stories may give hope to those who are struggling a bit with surviving.

Intriguing ideas.

I just posted a poll to help you get the data you are looking for. I like the idea of four strengths for each Jason. How would you feel about giving the walking Jasons one specific strength, and running Jasons a different specific strength?

I've encountered players whose play styles that would counter that point, but I can see your stance on the last counselor's chance of survival. That's sound advice.

I will agree that some people left and had very harsh feelings when it came to their stance on Gun and Illfonic. I won't say most, as I have no evidence to support such a statement. Back when Jason was on the wrong end of the nerf stick, a lot of people, you and I included, stuck it out, toughened up, and evolved in the game. People are likely doing that as I type this post. I know things are harder for counselors at the moment. Now the question to you is, could counselors take their licks and toughen up under the current situation?

No problem buddy. I'm here to keep life in the forum.

Thanks to everyone that has voted so far. To those who are having issues with survival, it is still being done. @Redrum138, it's good to hear that you are enjoying yourself with your crew. @HuDawg, it sounds like you are enjoying the patch quite a bit. Based on your posts on the subject, it sounds like good pairing. @Dragonfire82877, you, I and many others already know this. There are still some that don't. There's no need to apologize for the length of your post. You are one of a chosen few whose views I consistently enjoy reading.

I'm not convinced that that new animation is gonna do much in the way for how grab works. It looks cool when the counselor is standing still, but we haven't seen what it looks like when chasing someone.

I'm really getting sick of people complaining about slashing. As I've said before: If you aren't slashing to win, you aren't trying to win. Jason's job is to kill the counselors, not play by some sort of mythical code of honor. Play to win the game. End of discussion.
