Talk:Friday the 13th: The Computer Game

Statement

Does anyone know what is meant by this statement? I'd like to rephrase it but I don't know exactly what it is supposed to mean.

To get it, you venture to a cave where you defeat the flying head of Jason's mother, who you need to defeat several times before she will leave the pitchfork behind. After you defeat her once, however, she is back in the cave after your battle with Jason.

Basicly the game is in three stages, each a different day, thursday the 12th, friday the 13th, and saturday the 14th. Each day you have to kill Jason to move on to the next day, and each day you can Kill Pamela for a different weapon. In day one it is a weapon upgrade, in day two/three it is the sweater (jason hits less/Pitchfork (I forget which is which, although I think the pitchfork is on day three)

Jason does not move in a random pattern.

Jason does not move in a random pattern; he moves in a very deliberate, almost circular pattern around the map. If memory serves, he starts off at a random place, but proceeds to follow the same path that he does every time one plays the game. The map contains a path that is an outer circle along the perimeter of the entire map, and two interior, path circles: a path circle around the caves on the left, and a path circle around the lake on the right, both inside the larger circle. Let's say that he starts off at the top of the map, on the top of the perimeter circle. He will move toward the circular path surrounding the caves, but not into the caves (from what I've seen), he will then make his way from the caves, downward, to the first path that leads from the perimeter circle to the circle around the the lake, and he will then make his way up and to the left entrance of the lake and into the children's cabin. He will stop killing them after wiping out 1/3 of them or if he is challenged and temporarily defeated by a counselor. If he is challenged by a counselor and he defeats the counselor, then the 1/3 percentage will restart, and he'll start killing 1/3 of the remaining kids. Therefore, if you interrupt him and fail too many times, he'll never stop killing the kids. If he goes uninterrupted, he will wipe out only one cabinful of children before leaving. Also, while attacking the children, he will swim around the lake and attack you if you are canoeing. Anyway, when he is done attacking the children, he will then make his way to the right entrance of the lake into the circle surrounding the lake, and then down through the woods to the bottom of the map back onto the perimeter circle and make his way up around the right side of the map to the top of the screen again (I think he ducks into the top section of woods again before doubling back to the top of the screen) and then starts the process all over again. The paths in the woods are not shown on the map, but each has a path leading into and out of the bottom and top of each group of woods. There are two patches of woods on the map.

If all the children die, then you lose. If all of the counselors die, then you lose. So therefore you can have one child and one teen and still be in the game.

You don't actually have to visit a fellow counselor in order to switch active roles with that counselor, you simply have to find a small cabin, leave the current active counselor there, and start playing in a different cabin as a different counselor.

That last part in the trivia section should be removed.

I think that *certain readers* would be offended by cursing in an encyclopedic article. That "your mom's a ****ing whore" can be considered a personal insult.--Ephraim225 05:04, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

Major POV correction and article expansion

I took the liberty of expanding the details on the game and outlining as many pertinent details as I could. There were serious POV issues and personal opinions in the article before I began. If anyone sees anything that might seem overly subjective, please notify me here, and I'll correct it. If anyone decides to edit in my stead, though, please remember to keep from writing from an opinionated stance. Tenraixtreme 06:13, 15 August 2007 (UTC)

Name?

I am wondering if the article name should be renamed Friday the 13th: The Computer Game as that is the title of the, well, title. Thoughts before a move? Thanks!--Surv1v4l1st ^{▌Talk|Contribs▌} 05:14, 13 October 2016 (UTC)
