Halloween: The Game Scenarios?

Halloween: The Game Scenarios?

My imagination is already running wild with the possibilities. I haven't seen a lot of people talking about Michael's ability to throw weapons which seems really cool. Imagine going up against a methodical Myers. He creeps in the shadows, building up his bloodlust by stalking. You know he is present but you don't know where he is. You are working on an objective with an NPC, then suddenly you just see a pitchfork flying through the air and your NPC companion gets one shot. What kind of fun scenarios are you anticipating with this game?

Inmate Myers

Surely I can't be the only one who was mildly disappointed when they announced that the inmate Myers skin would stay blurred. Don't get me wrong I do really like that idea as an alternative look. I can only imagine how scary it would be to see a faceless man coming at you in a match. But in my opinion it makes sense to release a version with a face. Especially since they are basing this game off the original movie and he was unmasked and you could clearly see his face. I don't mind this so much in multi-player as there will be lots of skins and it doesn't have to stay 100% movie accurate. However, I think when playing the story mode it is a little strange if they keep him faceless during the gameplay. I don't mind it too much. The thing I would hate the most is if they showed his blurred face during the cinematic scenes (which I doubt they will do). Just a small critique, but overall I am excited and very optimistic about the game.

Reality Tear

I was wondering how Michael was able to use shape jump while remaining in Laurie's line-of-sight. Thanks to the game, we now know that he used his reality tear ability here. Also, to answer that person's question about why didn't Michael just use reality tear to get away in Ends? The devs said it has a massive cool down so that's probably why he couldn't do it.

Digital Deluxe More Surprises

Any speculation as to what we might see from the Digital Deluxe More Surprises? I personally have a feeling it will be related to Sheriff Lee Bracket. What do you think we'll get?

Consolation

My heart goes out to everyone that wanted to pre-order the Collector's Edition (CE) but wasn't able to. Wow! That sold out fast! How many copies do you think they produced? According to my knowledge, I saw that there were at least 4 retailers selling pre-orders of the CE: Target, Best Buy, Amazon, and GameStop. Earlier in the day, my cousin purchased his CE via BestBuy, I got caught up with some errands. After a few hours I went to purchase my CE too, but saw it was sold out on Best Buy. I went to GameStop's website and it was still available there. I ordered two CEs (one to unwrap and enjoy and another to stay sealed for collection purposes) as well as two Standard Editions (one to unwrap and enjoy and another to stay sealed for collection purposes). After I received my confirmation email for my purchase, I checked the other retailers and they were all sold out. About ten minutes later, I went back to check the listing on GameStop's page. It was sold out. I feel super lucky and grateful that I was able to get mine at the last minute. And I am super sorry for any of you who missed out tonight. See you guys and gals in Haddonfield! 🔪🎃

Museum Mode?

Is a Museum Mode confirmed for this game? I didn't know much about the F13 franchise and really enjoyed the virtual cabin. Likewise with TCM and museum mode. I hope we get something similar for Halloween.

Timed Matches and Environmental Time Simulation

Are there any details on how long a match will be? I think when the game launches, they said there will be more time than what was given during the demo. Also, does anyone know how difficult it is to animate time passage in games? If the matches are timed I think it would make sense to correlate the timer with a time passage animation. Since the events of the Halloween movies always take place during Halloween night, it would make sense for matches to start at night, then when time is up, it would be dawn. I don't think it is something we will get, or something that is necessary even. But I am curious if that is something difficult to do from the developer's standpoint? Because it didn't exist within F13 (which would have made sense to do since F13 matches were timed).

Disconnecting Mid-Match

What will happen when hero players disconnect mid-match? Since it is confirmed that the game will have an offline mode, I am hoping they will implement bots to replace disconnected players. One issue I had with TCM was how disconnected players' characters would just stand in place.

Dealing with Michael Myers disconnecting would be something more difficult to handle. Perhaps hero players will be rewarded with extra match points due to him disconnecting and ending the match early. And to put an incentive in place against disconnecting as Michael Myers or even hero characters, they could put players who disconnect in timeout (similar to DBD).

One thing I like about the NPCs, is that I think we will see less disconnecting from the killer, even if Michael faces a "bully squad" he will still get some match points from killing NPCs and still get to have some fun.

I'm so pumped for this game! What do y'all think?
