Last week, we reported that the popular asymmetrical online multiplayer horror-survival game FRIDAY THE 13TH: THE GAME would be getting a final patch later this month, but now we have the full details! You can check them out below:
Patch Notes – 11.10.2020 – Final Patch
Patch 1.39
This patch will deploy on Tuesday, November 10th.
Patch is scheduled to start rolling out at roughly 10AM Eastern US Time Tuesday morning on the PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
Switch will be delayed. As soon as we have definite timing for the Switch we will update here.
Combat Stance
- Commonly referred to as Sliding or Teleporting, the team has fixed an issue allowing players to manipulate combat stance changes.
- Players may still see, when in spectator mode, counselors attempting to perform the exploit, however this is a visual artifact.
Pocket Knife Issues
- Instant break free by using health spray or firecrackers when grabbed, resulting in not only an instant break free but also retention of the player’s pocket knife, has been fixed.
- Loss of pocket knives in circumstances when firecrackers are used has also been fixed.
Jason – Game Play
- Ability Unlock/Recharge Rate toggle in private matches has been fixed to include both parameters.
- Lobby icon irregularities resulting in an inaccurate lobby icon have been fixed.
- Abduction, when Jason is able to Morph while holding a counselor, has been fixed.
- Mask HP loopholes where use of a flare gun or firecrackers could get the mask to come off too quickly have been fixed.
- Jason Kill Sequence – Kneel: The issue where the kneeling animation during the Jason Kill process could be repeated has been fixed.
Counselor – Game Play
- Hiding Under Bed: An issue where players could hide under beds and become stuck in a way where Jason could not kill them has been fixed. While it is still possible in some instances to cause the bug, the counselor will be able to be killed by Jason in that state.
- Lobby icon irregularities resulting in an inaccurate lobby icon have been fixed.
- Numerous safe spots around the maps have been fixed, including the Pinehurst Roof method by way of Tommy’s bed.
- Players will now see an error if they roll and sell perks too quickly, but the game will stay functional and no longer lock up. Players can then continue to roll and sell perks, being cautious of not overloading the roll system.
- An issue causing the Counselor clothing options to not save properly when altering color/items has been resolved. Feel free to go back to playing Pink Cop Kenny.
- Tommy Jarvis voice lines have been restored, and this is between him and Jason.
General
- Various Interaction Locks have been fixed, particularly those that occurred when players would input either multiple button presses or rapid button presses in short succession, rapid pick up and put down of items, and multiple inputs appearing with on screen prompts.
- Fuse Box and Fuse spawn for the Cop call has been extended to ensure the fuse does not spawn inside the house with the fuse repair box.
- With this patch, matchmaking will shift away from Dedicated Servers and onto Peer to Peer Matchmaking for all matches.
- The game will still be playable online publicly with the Quick Play option and privately with the Private Match option.
- For more on this change, as well as the status of the game going forward, please follow up with our statement here.
Meanwhile, these patches will be implemented, starting November 10th!
