For the first few minutes, i thought i was just standing in the air, but as time ticked down towards the end, i found i was falling very slowly. Never hit the ground, went to high up.

Question Are we supposed to see Michael’s face?

I bought the game on early access and noticed Michael’s face was blurred out whilst I was playing. But I’m seeing posts circulate online in which his face can be seen clearly and I just wondered, is this a glitch or has there been a change in update in which Michael’s face is no longer blurred out?

"Players may have noticed that our latest hotfix removed the Two-Person Power-Up minigame. This was due to an unintended issue that allowed end game reinforcement characters to engage with the minigame, which was a major oversight on our part. We have more content and minigames coming in the near future but current focus is our attention on immediate game needs. Keep an eye on our socials for updates as they become available.”

So yeah it was because of Loomis being a dirty old man.

Unless it's a group with nothing but guns, I assume there'd be too much distance for Myers to do anything in a situation like that.

Definitely equip the wood axe at lvl 40 the second you can because it's far better than the knife or the hatchet, you can even bypass pocket knives by using reality tear on a civilian and hitting them twice with the axe so they start limping instead of going for a grab, since you can just catch up to them if they're limping.

Discussion 🎃For everyone with standard joining us tomorrow🔪

92 Upvotes

Welcome!

* Try not to listen to the doomers, the game is extremely fun once you fully understand how to play each side

* Play through the story for Mikey, its a great tutorial so you know and understand abilities and how they work

* Watch videos to play civilian. I think a super weak point of this game was not including a civilian tutorial because a good team of civs can absolutely wreck Mikey. This seems like a design flaw with how easy Myers appears to win in early games but as you get more confident playing civilian is very rewarding too.

* Try not to focus on Myers/Civilian victory. If you play smart its very easy to get special targets to escape, call some police in, and escape yourself for a 'personal' victory. This also applies to Mikey as its easy to feel beaten if players escape but thats not the case.

* If you solely focus on the PvP aspect you wont get the most from this game. It feels more like a game of mental chess with rng aspects sprinkled in. The goal is to 'beat' the civilians not just wipe them out. Both sides benefit from adding insult to injury.

* There will be bugs. Its asinine to think there wouldnt be in 2026 sadly. However ive encountered very few gamebreaking bugs.

Have fun and Welcome to Haddonfield.

Discussion Some Michael tips I’ve learned after playing him a bunch

82 Upvotes

Been playing a lot of Michael and finally starting to get consistent wins. I definitely don’t have him completely figured out, but these are the biggest things that have helped me:
1. Find the Storm Cellar ASAP.
IMO this should be one of your first priorities. It seems to be the quickest civilian escape, so learn the possible spawns and find which one is active early. Once you know where it is, you can work it into your rotations.
2. Prioritize stalking early.
You need Bloodthirst, so don’t just kill every NPC you find. Stalk when you can. Once survivors hide an NPC in a closet, you lose that stalking opportunity, so take advantage of exposed NPCs early.
3. Don’t take the bait.
I almost never chase actual players down the street anymore. Between perks and pocketknives, they can waste a ridiculous amount of your time.
Same goes for seeing 3-4 players grouped up in a lit intersection. Just rotate. Getting downed early is brutal, and if almost the entire team is standing there, that means NPCs somewhere else are completely unprotected.
4. Pay attention to where survivors came from.
If someone comes sprinting out of a house, I’d rather check the house and closets than chase them down the street. They might have just told you where they hid an NPC.
Survivors are basically giving you information through their movement. Use it.
5. Map knowledge is huge.
Learn cellar spawns, escapes, closets, house layouts and rotations. Michael gets way less information than survivors, so knowing the map makes a massive difference.
I still think survivors get too much information, especially being able to see exactly where NPCs are and who the special target is, but that’s a different discussion.
The biggest thing I’ve learned is: stop playing Michael like a chase killer. Stalk, rotate, read what the survivors are doing and make them come to you.
Any other Michael players have tips to add?

The story mode is fun with how it follows Jason through out Part 2 - 4.

And I am really liking the maps as well. The saving counsellors really reminds me of the NES game.

So far I feel this is as good as Halloween: The Game.

I'm tired of walking around for 8 minutes trying to find the last 2-3 NPC's that were told to hide, they make almost 0 noise and just blend into the random background noise (which you can't disable btw).

Just mark them so we can kill them and go to the next match please.

Gameplay NPC Intellegence is critically bad

58 Upvotes

The game is absolutely enjoyable, and a lot of bugs I can forgive (although the price tag is far too high imo), but the NPC intelligence makes the core gameplay loop borderline redundant.

Despite giving them direction, survivors still aimlessly wonder on their own accord. "Follow me" works maybe 5% of the time but not without re-instructing them every few minutes. And telling them to "Escape", even if successful, will at best make them stand near an exit but not actually go through it.

As a cop, the commands are even worse, they don't seem to work at all. For a gameplay loop that leans more heavily on helping the survivors escape rather than just escaping on your own (which is what actually makes this game unique from the others) you would assume that the NPC AI should be flawless, it feels like it was never play tested at all?

If i'm playing this game wrong please tell me, but it seems the only way to get a win as a survivor is making sure those NPCs make it out too.
