Well then, I must be particularly lucky because I have never once killed only one counselor. There have certainly been matches where some escape but more often than not I get the "no survivors" bonus. 😕

@Fair Play well yeah, that last one was a tongue-in-cheek jab at the players who hide from the counselors once being killed is a possibility. Divide and conquer is the name of the game.

Did you know that Jason has the ability to make it exceedingly difficult for counselors to kill him? Step 1.) Familiarize yourself with the maps and their various iterations; the spawn locations of the cabin with the CB used to call Tommy Specifically. Step 2.) Jason's first tactic should be finding the power box which supplies power to the aforementioned cabin and shutting it down and trapping it. Step 3.) SITUATIONAL AWARENESS! Did the trap spring? Listen for they telltale noise -- it's quiet if a counselor uses a PK to disable it but it does make a noise. Check your map frequently to see if the trap has been sprung, the icon changes when it has. If you're quick you can often re-hit the box before Tommy can be called -- optional-- - trap the entrance to your shack - kill the women first - hide like a pathetic coward, totally inconsistent with how Jason actually behaves.

I'm gonna take a hard stance here and say that killing Jason should only happen a fraction of the percent of a time. This is, however, merely a personal opinion and there is no fair way I could think of to implement it. Too many variables at play

@Ahab whoa there, buddy. I was just asking a simple question. I wasn't trying to be hostile or doubting you, just seeking clarification. Personally i'm very happy with the change in gameplay since this most recent patch was released.

@Ahab I've seen you mention in multiple threads that counselors escapes have increased since this last patch.... is this anecdotal or is there some database i'm unaware of which actually keeps track of such data? Just curious.

Let's give the counselors jet packs, missile launchers, and mech suits. Also, J-dog should be a quadriplegic sans wheelchair. There is no conceivable way I could ever survive a match otherwise so I demand this game be changed in manner more suited to me abilities. Or lack thereof.

Composure - 10 pretty fearless person Luck - 1 FML Speed - 7 but only cause of adrenaline Stamina - 3 i'm a heavy smoker Repair - 5 decently mechanically inclined but not a mechanic Strength - 10 years upon years of manual labor Stealth - 10 escape and evade is a specialty The best way to play my character would be to attack Jason. Yeah you'd die every time but he have to earn that kill. Others would escape but not because i'm a hero -- i'm just a fighter. If it weren't for my stubbornly aggressive mentality, my selfishness would cause me to escape in a car, alone. Cause if i'm being honest, none of the in-game counselors are people I'd be likely to be friends with.

In my experience your best chance of finding a lobby is within the first 15 seconds. If you don't make it into a lobby within that time, just restart the search. This has been my method for awhile and I seldom have to restart the search more than 3 times.

Thank you for the clarification. I was surprised -- and rather annoyed -- to see three counselors dancing on the roof during a match last night. Do you know if anything can/will be done to address the privacy partition glitch on the Higgins Haven map(s)?

Perhaps I misunderstood, but I was under the impression that this patch fixed the glitch which allowed counselors access to the roof of Packanack Lodge. It hasn't.

Ironic. I'd expect the stun hits to do more damage, since, you know, they stun him. I suppose in theory that could make it easier but I still see people fail at killing Jason multiple times a day. Thanks for the clarification, though.

How do you figure? Yes, that is just the way it is. The ability of players to (ab)use party chat is not something the devs have any meaningful control over. Go play your other game... which hasn't come out yet but it is still somehow better than this game which is already out and kicks a fair amount of ass in my humble opinion. You won't be missed. QQ

Bye, felicia.

Awesome! I especially like that people can't suicide their way into being Tommy anymore.
