If you're having PS4 problems you're just impatient. I have to wait 4-10 minutes every time I first log in, but then I've played 5 or 6 rounds without trouble, go make lunch, then jump back in, no problem.

[RIP to the brain damaged nerds that play games on pc, though]


The second best death in the series was immediately after when Jason drowned Evil Robert Stack in the barrel of dookie.

And who doesn't love frozen face in Jason X?

Best Jason death is that one girl who got killed and then we get a 5 second zoomed in close-up of her credit card.

You say that, and yet somewhere out there there's the dookie barrel full of Evil Robert Stack.

Handstand dick chop is one of those that would have been perfect if the 80's wasn't weird about violence.

Basically here's the secret of the franchise.

Unlike with Halloween, or Nightmare or really any other Slasher film- every Jason movie has something to it. Every Jason film has some edge to it that makes it worth watching. One particular kill, one excellent moment, a heavy load of homoerotic subtext

No Jason movie is without merit. Even Jason Goes to Hell is great for it's truly brutal kills and the director commentary where they just take the poo poo out of the movie every chance they have.

No Jason film is GREAT CINEMA FOREVER, but they're all fun as gently caress and if you want to see some people get murdered or see an immortal angry zombie man do his thing, you cannot go wrong. From Pam to Jason to Roy, all of them have some kind of special quality. None of them reach the highs of the first Halloween or Nightmare, but they don't sink to the depths that those franchises found either.

It's also the most consistent in quality, it has some downturns and some upswings but has remained enjoyable over the course of 12 movies, the same can't be said for Halloween or nightmare.

There is a workaround that might be possible, but you will have to open Family Share settings for an alternate account. You will start from level 0, but you should get access to the game and start playing. The issue could occur again, however.

are the same thing!

Best kills:
1. Jason's death in the Final Chapter
2. Headcrush (with popping eyeballs) in Part 3
3. Sex spear in Part 2
4. Arrow through the throat in the original
5. Sleeping bag smash in New Blood

i will say, it's a hard franchise to share with people because even Friday 4 that I remembered being epic is a lot of boring wrapped around a few awesome moments and weirdness.

I was also playing and realized that the main thing missing from the game is the vice. Obviously the game can't really replicate the formula of the movies where a bunch of people happily gently caress and get high in ignorance while their friends are slaughtered around them without becoming a whole other game.

But it would be nice if there were sort of vice buffs around the cabins. Like you can heal by taking a shower. You can increase your composure by getting high. You can increase your strength by drinking. Increase your intelligence by watching weird vintage porn. Have them work as these twenty second animations that you get locked into and have them turn off the scary music so you don't know if Jason is approaching.

This reminds me of that awesome part of Until Dawn where Jess gets pissed at the killer and starts yelling into the woods. "We're gonna get drunk! And have lots of sex! And it's gonna be *hot*!"

Until Dawn was so cool

I think I'm going to do a steam demo tonight if the servers held up.

Also I'm going to be the weird one and say Part V is a good movie although the ending and logic for Roy is hilariously bad. It's still overall really good.

Part IV is just meh. Not bad just meh.

Players are really good at putting their feet in their mouths in this game. On several occasions I've been called an idiot or that I suck only to get the kill within the next minute.

I'm implying that I could have gotten them within the next 5 seconds or possibly longer if they were one of the fast characters. That is if you're saying I'm bad at the game which is hard to tell with how you worded that.

It seems like they need to up XP or encourage people to use the environmental kill methods...if for my viewing pleasure, if nothing else.

The problem is that you can break free so quickly, even as one of the lower strength characters, that getting an environmental kill only happens if you are right next to the appropriate object.,
