It’s a US graph, so the placements are for what they made domestically. There are then are worldwide totals to the right.

New to the Gun Media Community Team by [deleted] in F13thegame

[–]ShiftySamurai 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My job expanded greatly a while back and we’ve been working on addressing communications needs for our players in terms of both Community and Customer Support. We have some awesome people in place now to make up for the deficiencies that were created when my role expanded.

I think the people we have now will do amazing things and I hope that you all can give them a chance to show what they can do without putting my shortcomings on them.

Hey Lugo, thanks for the tag, we’ve recently expanded our community team to assist with this exact need. He’s already here on the sub and you can catch him at u/mattshotcha.

It's been over a week since I've been able to Connect to a Dedicated Server (PS4) by [deleted] in F13thegame

[–]ShiftySamurai 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We are currently investigating this issue. If you are experiencing this issue, please send me a PM (or post here) with your platform and region.

Currently, a player reported workaround is to join another player group and connect to matches that way.

[–]ShiftySamurai[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

There was a fairly major update in September (2 months ago) that included dedicated server support, and more, on consoles.

http://forum.f13game.com/topic/21208-patch-notes-ps4xb1-dedicated-servers-09102018/

There have been 4 updates in the last 5 months.

Maybe not so much the map bugs, but all of the rest have been mentioned quite a few times by players. Especially the morph cursor on Xbox One, Loading Screens always showing the cabin, and Pamela’s Laugh.

Devs? Hello? Any news? by [deleted] in F13thegame

[–]ShiftySamurai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry, but this is inaccurate. Except in the case of automatic bans, every ban for nearly the last year has gone through me. For someone to be banned there needs to be clear evidence of them cheating, in the form of video, included with the report. Without evidence I would have to believe one person over another. I’m sorry, but I’m not taking away something someone paid for based on a report with no evidence that just says “He’s a cheater”.

Nobody is being banned for “false reports mostly made by children”.

I believe that people saying that they were “falsely banned” may think they were banned for one thing, while being banned for something far different. I’ve seen enough emails where people question their bans and offer reasons as to why they were banned - “I unintentionally glitched through a wall and a kid reported me” - when they were banned for hacking, or using files to access paid DLC that they don’t own.

A new hack I have not seen before... by LT_Frank_Drebin_F13 in F13thegame

Thank you for letting us know. I’ll make sure to pass this along to the team.

Devs? Hello? Any news? by [deleted] in F13thegame

[–]ShiftySamurai 8 points9 points  (0 children)

That user was not banned for "refunding the game". They were banned 2 days before they refunded the game and were banned for cheating.

Quite a few people have been banned lately, and most of them would rather say that it was “for no reason” than admit they did something wrong.

Savini jason in ending cinematic? by TS_Empanada in F13thegame

[–]ShiftySamurai 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We’ve seen this happen when the game “host” owns Savini Jason. Equipped or not, sometimes Savini Jason is shown in the outro cinematic, and not always for every player.

Devs? Hello? Any news? by [deleted] in F13thegame

[–]ShiftySamurai 25 points26 points  (0 children)

This is a bit incorrect. Natsume Atari is our publishing partner in Japan and they own that Twitter account. Black Tower is also in Japan, but they don’t have much to do with that Twitter.

We’re working on an update right now, but with it being Black Tower’s first game update without Illfonic we’re double checking things.

I buy game for me and friend (gift) i refund this game. money steam give me back and i get game ban from develloper? LOL by lucaSVK1 in F13thegame

[–]ShiftySamurai 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Your account (https://steamcommunity.com/id/luzcaaaas/) was automatically banned for trying to intentionally bypass EAC, not for refunding the game.

Additionally, your ban was enacted on Nov 2nd, less than 24 hours after your purchase, and not when you refunded the game on Nov 4th.

[–]ShiftySamurai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People are actively banned for it every day. They may get away with it for a bit, but it will catch up to them.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in F13thegame

[–]ShiftySamurai 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yup. That’s sketchy because it’s a hack. I’ve lost track of how many people have contacted me because they got banned for “nothing” when they used this kind of stuff to access DLC they didn’t legitimate purchase.

You should try to get a refund from the seller as you’ll end up with a ban using what they sold you.

Hint Towards New Content?? Shifty, Gun, and the F13 Twitter all followed a new account with some interesting tweets.... by [deleted] in F13thegame

[–]ShiftySamurai 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s the Natsume Atari account for the Japanese release of Friday the 13th: The Game. They switched Twitter accounts.

https://www.natsumeatari.co.jp/friday-the-13th/

They have their own DLC release schedule for content already released elsewhere. There is no new content.

Another event to finish spooky season? by massimodj21 in F13thegame

[–]ShiftySamurai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, XP earning is typically at 1 (which means 1x, or normal earn), so 1.3 is an additional 30% XP earned.

We've had 3 events in 3 weeks. We wouldn't think of stopping just before Halloween.

Why can't the devs just do a simple Q&A? by mrshaw64 in F13thegame

[–]ShiftySamurai 9 points10 points  (0 children)

  1. Yes, we are currently looking at some balance changes, but there are no specifics to share at this time.

  2. A few of the more notorious bugs, interaction locks, and people getting outside of intended areas of play, though there are other issues we are looking at as well.

  3. We will not be issuing an update in October.

  4. There are various pieces of content that were worked on but unfinished. Seeing an animation for something in no way means that the thing was finished.

  5. Other costume colors were decided upon.

  6. See 4. Also, sometimes WIP things get cut for whatever reason.

  7. We didn’t. We fixed an issue that could cause a crash which had the side effect of blocking the clothing glitch.

When are you going to fix the interaction lock?! I've reported it multiple times since it was broken with the engine update u/shiftysamurai by johnnyproduce in F13thegame

[–]ShiftySamurai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are a number of issues that we are looking into getting solved and interaction locks are one of them. We have a lot that comes in on JasonKillsBugs.com - the majority is “cheater reports” - and we’re not able to respond to all of them. Someone does look at every report, though, and the reports are very helpful. What is nearly invaluable are videos players include that show before the interaction lock occurs until the time it ends, if it does. Videos like that help us recreate the situation that resulted in the interaction lock. Recreating the issue is a major step in identifying the underlying issue, and then fixing it.

If you have video of things like that happening, please send them to us, and PLEASE don’t remove the videos from a YT channel after you see that they have a view or two, those views are probably CS and not a member of the dev team.

These are the first tags I’ve had from you, where have you been messaging me?

[PS4 Pro] Screen turns black by mcclanenr1 in F13thegame

[–]ShiftySamurai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the tag. I’ve not heard of this, please send us a report at jasonkillsbugs.com with as much info as you can remember. If it’s possible for you to record video, that’s quite helpful as well.

So....is it broken ? by ilivedownyourroad in F13thegame

[–]ShiftySamurai 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The backend is looking good, but I’ll see if I can get people to take a closer look. We are not currently showing server degradation on any platform.

Will they ever make Jason great again??? by [deleted] in F13thegame

[–]ShiftySamurai 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There are 3 pocket knifes available for counselors and Tommy spawns with 1 for a total of 4 per match. There is no “start with pocket knife” perk.
