Friday The 13th The Game Had A Bad Launch, Let’s Move On

Joanna Mueller writes: "Depending on your perspective, “a bit rough” is probably a little generous. The game servers couldn't keep up with demand and were constantly crashing. Plus there were also a host of game-breaking bugs and glitches thrown into the mix. Naturally, when they discovered that their $40 game was nearly unplayable, some people got extremely frustrated. Meanwhile, the devs continued scrambling to fix the stability issues while addressing irate fans. It wasn't pretty."

Agreed. It's an amazing game when it works, and the developers have been good at fixing the issues. Should they have been fixed pre launch? Of course, but I'm much more forgiving when this happens with a small dev team than when it happens with a major, AAA release.

On consoles. Its worked fine on pc for me since launch. I've only encountered a few laughable bugs here or there.

BenjaMan642912d ago

This game is quite an amazing experience, I hope it has a long life.

F13 is better than I ever dreamed. Shame glitches hurt it at the start, but it is just mindless fun and so well done. I can't imagine a better Friday the 13th game.

Shoot whats next Child's play?Actually that sounds badass

Evil Dead is great. I'd love a Halloween game done this way. Maybe it's a 3 way fight. One player is Michael Myers. 5 players are helpless victims trying to survive, 3 players are hunters trying to stop Michael Myers. Hunters could be Laurie Strode, Dr. Loomis and Sheriff Brackett. Boom, I just laid out the game for you, Gun Media. Lets go.

Alright, this game needs to happen!

shinoff21831025d ago

All thise games would serve better being single player. I see multiplayer attached and i stopped even watching. Shame

sourOG1025d ago

It would. I bought evil dead and played it once lol. If there is any franchise that would get me to play this style of game it’s killer klowns.

CrimsonWing691025d ago

That’s my thing. I’m not into these asymmetrical MP games. Sure, they’re fun the first few days, but after that I’m over them. I’d rather a single player narrative driven experience that really pays homage to the source material like Ghostbusters The Video Game. That thing was essentially Ghostbusters 3 in my eyes and was such a love letter to the fans with Easter eggs and explored lore.

TheSanchezDavid1025d ago

While I would love a solid, competent single player component, the fan in me is stroked to play these games, period. Plus, I do generally enjoy multiplayer horror titles like Dead by Daylight and Evil Dead, so I'm waiting on this with eager anticipation!

mastershredder1025d ago

A mainstream moment full of mediocre cash-grabs is nothing to celebrate.

TheSanchezDavid1025d ago

Evil Dead: The Game was good. And Texas Chain Saw Massacre and Killer Klowns still aren't out yet, sooooo can't really say they're mediocre with any validity quite yet.
