DO NOT ADD JASON (please stop commenting on this)

   I’ve seen so many people request to have Jason put into the game, but I am strongly against that. Adding Jason will completely destroy the F13 game. Before you say it’s dead, PC got an update recently, showing the game isn’t dead, but thriving. If it was dead, the devs would kill it off. Not to mention it’s more content that won’t work well in game, it’ll slow it down.

    Honestly, some people may disagree but I think the trapper is a Jason ripoff already and the two would end up being very similar

    I'm not up-to-date on my Jason lore, but I don't remember him using bear traps.

    Wrong. Not Queen said in a recent Q&A (recent as in after the whole lawsuit thing happened) that Jason is definitely a character that they have and are considering adding to the game. It's in one of the Q&A posts on these forums. Can't remember which one but there aren't many so you can find it pretty easily.

    Well, that changes exactly nothing. F13th is still a dead game whose devs are being sued.

    Yeah, I know. I was so just talking about how you said the devs won't add him.

    Oh also, the devs aren't being sued lol. The whole F13 license is, which the devs aren't involved in.

    Well some game company is planning to make a Halloween the game and it's basically identical to F13 one person plays as Michael and the others play as Teenagers so isn't that sort of contradicting your statement that by adding Jason into DBD it will hurt F13 because if they add Michael into a game of his own it seems like that will hurt DBD if we go by your statement. So you're contradicting yourself with this statement.

    Interesting. Well, like I said, I'm not up-to-date on my Jason lore. Still, if F13th proved anything, it's that Jason has a multitude of powers.

    Yea I can agree with that, I feel like if they did implement him then all the Friday players would throw a fit about it because there is no way Behaviour could make Jason the force he is in the other game without giving survivors weapons.

    Adding Jason and Ghostface to dead by daylight would be huge. Michael, Freddy, Jason, Leatherface and Ghostface that line up alone if you are a horror fan would bring you to the game.

    It can’t hurt DBD because they had Myers first, and if anything they’ve made their fair share from Myers already.

    I disagree. The games are very different, and have their own types of fun. Just bringing Jason to dbd shouldn't hurt f13 unless that game couldn't stand on its own.

    F13 is a dead game, it struggles to hit 1,000 players in 24 hours on steam. But I would welcome Jason because he would be in better hands than the hands of the crooks at Gun Media & illfonic.

    What they did to Jason in F13 was an absolute joke, survivors could dance around him half naked and taunting/trolling him with stuns and control tactics to the point jason could only stand up, get rekt and go down again. AT LEAST in dead by daylight he would be somewhat respected as a killer and not a laughing stock of a community who took the piss out of him and then abandoned the game.

    It’s almost the same way in this game though, there are people I know who I guarantee you won’t dance around on f13 as Jason and they basically have honed their skills to wipe everyone out fairly quick because if you get good with all the mechanics Jason has available it’s very hard to beat , but like this game as well though for example the nurse, you will come across some players who are a joke and you can run circles around all game even though they are highly skilled with other killers, and some who are ridiculous with the nurse where your mind really has to work to win because looping won’t do the trick against a good nurse

    Well yeah that's why Nurse is most popular killer because she can't be looped. She's the only killer worth playing in all honesty, nobody wants to get looped around buildings and pallets that's just boring. Nurse rules!!

    I don't remember seeing this but i do remember something from a little while back at one of the conferences or conventions that was a question asked about Jason being put in the game and i think they replied with"Not Yet" meaning they have thought or are thinking about it.

    That is very true and I feel like they would use the reboot version (sadly) for some reason.

    Maybe because they did for Freddy, idk.

    Nobody is going to touch that franchise until those two ancient mummy farts work out a deal. I haven't followed what's been going on with any of that since I stopped playing that game.

    I haven't followed it either. I don't know what it is about Jason, but he is just such a cool/badass killer. I read one of the books about the series (Crystal Lake Memories) and it just seems like those people making those movies had such a good time and the actors/actresses all said great things about Kane Hodder (not so much a few of the other Jason actors).

    Anyway, I just want a really good version of Jason to play.

    Yeah basically about adult Jason
    Miller the screenwriter of the first movie want's more money, and Cunningham director doesn't want to give him more money. Bottom line is GREED

    Well that makes sense. He is popular and probably worth a lot of money.

    But after 30 years...you would think someone would find a fun way to make him playable in a video game lol

    You made this in August and said "recently".
    Whether the game's thriving or not depends purely on the playercount, and nothing happened in August.
    If you said this in November, i'd believe that.

    Not that it really matters, the hype seemed to die in a week or so once again.

    Personally, my vote is a "no" for Jason. There are already plenty of killers that fill his design space.
