Convinced dude is being purposely obtuse for attention. Complaining about people messaging Jason for info yet does it himself, asks how to do unhittable jason glitches, keeps mentioning quickplay after we told him otherwise lol.

On Xbox? I just see colors of the perks. Not whether something is elite tier or not. I'm trying to figure out which to sell lol.

No progress returned on PC version from the past 2 days after the server update.
Not surprised. Kind of don't want to play anymore. I know others have bigger issues, but this is one of the biggest on the PC.

I'll take a pic after this match.
My favorite moment in this game so far is some asshole was trying to teamkill(counselor player). Dude was chasing me so I led him to Jason, I said "Jason please kill this guy he's teamkilling, I'll let you kill me for free if you get him."
Jason player kills the asshole, then says "go run and hide and start over, not fair to have the game ruined by jerks".

Might be because Xbox has not received the day one patch i'm guessing. On ps4 it shows whether the perk is common, rare, elite...
Kinda assumed this because I definitely scoured this menu.
Well shit. I'll wait for the pic still so I know which to keep vs sell

For the first time, I'm actually gaining experience and perks. Yay!
Xbox doesn't have the latest patch, so it might be missing that info right now.
Edit - beaten like a rented mule
Yeah, I suggest joining the GAF community and going from there. Never steered me wrong with Destiny.

lol that's great stuff
Going by memory, but white is base, blue is next tier, yellow the next, red the top? Been a few days since I played, so I could be wrong...
If people talk does Jason get a white blip showing their location? If so people need to shut the fuck up. No wonder we are getting slaughtered. People are just casually chatting with each other about like what they ate for breakfast.
I don't think talking creates a radar blip, at least I've never noticed it happen.

Damn my internet connection. I just got kick out of the game.
What causes the white blip?
Movement. Running creates a big one, walking a smaller one, crouching less so, staying still equals no blip.
Fear might also, can't recall.

I will try and get back on as soon as I can.
From Wiki:
Noise - Noise mechanics are very different than fear mechanics, fear causes your counselor to glow red when Jason uses his sense, while noise will show up via pings when Jason uses sense. How much sound you make is directly related to your counselors stealth stat, also you can monitor the amount of noise you make by keeping an eye on your mini-map. Each time your counselor is making a white ping on your mini-map, that is sound that Jason can see via his sense ability.
Fear - While playing the game it is important to remember the fear mechanics in place that Jason uses to sense counselors. It is also important to note that fear is directly linked with a counselors composure stat. Your fear can be monitored by facial expressions of your counselor, and when your counselor loses their balance while jogging or sprinting.
During gameplay there are 3 ways to help reduce the chances of alerting Jason via his sense ability.
Flashlight - Proper use of a counselors flashlight may save your life. Anytime you are walking in the dark, off the trails, or in an unlit cabin, your flashlight should be on to keep your fear from increasing.
Weapons - It is important to keep yourself armed with a weapon, by doing this it helps to reduce and keep your fear levels in check.
Being Around Others - Last factor to fear is staying close with other counselors, by sticking together it will further reduce your fear, and help to keep your counselor off of Jason's sense radar.

Can anyone clarify when you will appear in red when Jason uses his sense skill?
I had one match where there was one guy left and I couldn't find him anywhere. Someone messaged me and told me he was crouching in some bushes behind the barn but when I went there he still didn't show up when I used sense. However, when playing as Jason other times, I've definitely seen people in red when they're crouching still outside.
Also, if you're hiding under a bed/in a wardrobe, does the house still appear red? Presumably you're safe from appearing red if you're hiding in a tent or toilet since that'd be really unfair otherwise.
Edit - the above post might have clarified a little, but I'm still unsure if houses always glow red if you're inside them.

The houses will only appear red if someone is inside them and their character's fear is high.
Thanks for clarifying.
Well, based on what I know so far, it seems AJ stats are kind of unbeatable for staying undetected? 10 for stealth and 7 for composure. I don't see another character with such a good stealth/composure combination. Obviously she loses out a bit on speed and stamina.
The characters with high luck, repair and strength seem kind of useless to me. No way is high repair or luck worth the trade off in other categories, and seeing as you should be trying to avoid conflict, the merits of high strength seem questionable. I can see a case for a high speed/stamina character though.

They do not. Which is why it's important as Jason to go to the electrical boxes and shut off the power to all locations so that their fear increases. Even though there are some ways to keep them stable in the dark and alone.
Remove his music when he's around counselors, amplify his hearing a bit and stop the vcr recording thing when he uses abilities. How you want to use it is if you are chasing someone and you break down a door. Get out of view and pop the stalk ability, then use sense so they glow red, then use shift and smack em(don't grab out of a shift, it's cheap). Boom surprise attack.
Disables the music that plays when he is near a counselor so they can't tell you're nearby.
This sounds amazing. I'm going to have to buy this. Maybe immediately, maybe as soon as they fix matchmaking
It makes it so the music doesn't alert the counselor players. I think it also removes Jason from the minimap?

Also increases his hearing range.

Someone was glitching/hacking in my game and was literally flying everywhere so you couldn't hit them as Jason.

I agree with luck and strength but repair stat is great.

Less checkpoints while you are repairing which equate to faster repairs. AJ gets 3-4 on checkpoints on average and can repair mostly everything in the time that it takes for Jason to get out of a stun. It's really useful on the phone box since if you fuck up on that there is a global dial tone and Jason immediately teleports to the phones location.

To put it into practical terms, when I'm playing as the athletic girl who has super low repair you have to hit the shoulder buttons 6 or 7 times with a very short window for failure on each one, the bookish girl with a 10 in repair only twice with a huge window. It's super helpful.
Just feels a bit too circumstantial for me compared to stealth, composure, speed and stamina. Realistically you'll only be feeling the benefit of the repair stat once or twice per game. Sometimes possibly never.
That said I've mostly been playing as AJ so I'm a bit unfamiliar with how bad the repair mini games are if it's really low.

I, as Jason, found a guy glitching out. Told him I'd be back for him in a few minutes just in case he was able to get free, but he never did.

Man that last game. Manged to find the gas, battery, and key. Right as I get in the car 2 others show up and we all drive off to safety dodging Jason at the last turn. Think I found my counselor of choice now. Now to get better as Jason.
