General/Other - Jason Voorhees Jason Voorhees Pre-Release General Discussion

[Tim Static]

to be fair, the Kombat Pack DLC page does say 'Kombat Pack grants early access,' but I'm guessing that's on the technicality of patch pre-loading. either way, it's pretty vague.

Ah i wasn't aware. Maybe that's why the date isn't a normal Tuesday or Wednesday for DLC.

So... Kombat Kast this Thursday to talk about Jason or no? I WANT FOOTAGE DAMMIT.

I'm actually interested in guest characters. The fuck just happened?

Wait there's a Kombat Kast tomorrow???

I'll hang myself with my controller's cord if what you say is true.

Not that I know of, but I was wondering if there was because there freakin' should be.

 

[JDM]

Just wondering, do you think there will be a breakdown for the DLC characters before their release? OR at least a trailer??

I assume so, probably will be released tomorrow (today, technically) or friday?

[JDM]

Oh. Well then, lol.

 

[Ray Matthews]

Machete=Machete based attacks
Jason X=Cannot be thrown or knocked down when in X mode
Undead=Projectiles only do half damage when activated

Too over powered?

 

[Ray Matthews]

For those who have the kombat pack Jason will release May 5th. For non Kombat Pack holders one week later. I just found out on twitch from NRS.

 

[KCJ506]

I had a feeling that those earlier dates given for the DLC characters couldn't be right. Because those are Sundays. With the exception of NOA, nobody ever releases something on a Sunday.

I don't know if this is already known or not (if so, someone delete this thread), but I was scrolling down the icons menu and noticed Jason's icons are there ready to be unlocked with their variation names.

According to this, his variations are

Slasher
Relentless
Unstoppable

I'd upload a photo, but I don't know how to do it on my phone :/

 

[Game Scavenger]

Jason Voorhees doesn't run he just takes a shortcut threw the woods lol.

 

[Ray Matthews]

I hope they add the fatality where Jason sticks the girls head in dry ice water and smashes her head. I think it was from Jason X?

 

[bumpyface]

I can't wait. Cinco de MF Mayo. lol

 

[MadPropz101]

He slows down time for you while he walks towards you normal speed.

 

[Eijiken]

Jason would have no dash or run, but all of his normals have <13f startups and are +13 on block

 

[Peter Quill]

If you go to the Kollection and get to the character's finishers you get a sneak peak of one of his fatalities, and IDK what's happening but it doesn't involve a sleeping bag.

 

[VenomX-90]

I hope NRS makes his fatality really creative, b/c half of his fatalities involve his iconic machete. Thats great and all but its too simple and already determined.

 

[ZigZag]

NRS is probably going to do what they did with Freddy, where both his fatalities are references to one of his movie kills

But why wouldn't they?

 

[Csalokangas]

Kano:Swings Blows
Jason:Back up
Kano:Another Blow
Jason:Backs up again
Kano:Give Me Your Best Shot
Jason: .......
Kano:?
Jasonunches His head Clean Off
Lol

 

[RYX]

But why wouldn't they?

because.. that's what they're probably going to do?

 

[ZigZag]

I seemed to have misread your comment lol

 

[STORMS]

I hope his variation names change. Unstoppable and Relentless are good fillers but, they could definitely do better.

 

[zHawken]

lets be honest. Jason is a cool idea, but i think he and even Freddy were mistakes. Guest characters are a horrible way to go for MK, especially when they have so many unused characters still from even MK9. I dont know about you, but unless they come as DLC, im going to be super disappointed if we dont get someone along the lines of Smoke, Noob, or even a new character to the MK series. Just because a character would fit, doesn't mean they belong.
