A History of censorship repeats itself ?

[76561198383104026]

For any fan of 8 first Friday films then you know how the films had to fight against the MPAA in USA, and every film got censored by MPAA some heavier than others especially Friday 7 film was cut to pieces by the American MPAA film censorship. Please listen me out as Im trying to be casually optimistic here and allow a minor detour: Films like Predators and Drive actually had lawsuits brought against them for alleged FAKE trailers (Predators shows a scene where 10 or more Predators are pointing their laszers at Adrien Brody, a scene not in the film) and Drive was sued because people thought it would be a A fast and the furious type of film.(It was however smartly edited but no missing scenes) and also its a much better film than A fast and the furious film could ever be!) Nothing came out of these lawsuits except the films become "tainted" for having so called False Advertisments. Thats why Hollywoodfilm films stopped with fake trailers. Now Friday the 13th trailer promises us pitchfork kills with Jason 2 and 3:s and yet I have never seen these kills in all the Beta gameplay that Ive seen. Arent the makers the slightest afraid of being sued for false advertisments as the trailers shows Jason 2 n 3 kill with pitchforks ? Sure Tom Savini Jason will have a devils pitchfork which he can I assume pitchfork conselors with, thats however not the point as the trailers promises us regular Jason kills with standard edition. GUN Media knows the ultimate reason here and I would appreciate a civil reply from them.

PS IF it is some sort of censorship issue that it boils down too why not release the PC version digitally as AO as Steam already have AO games for sale like shooter Hatred (OK by Gabe Newell himself!!) Bdsm porn game Ladykiller in a Bind, Fahrenheit ? Or release it uncut PEGI-18 (Most of Europen countries abolished film and game censorship that year) as they only make age recommendations as they are not allowed to demand cuts like ESRB. Bottom line I would very much love to buy this game total uncut as in the trailers.

The following I like, a potential censorship in any way shape or form not so much, a deal breaker to be perfectly honest as I love horror films filled with blood and extreme violence!

And as I said I remain casually optimistic that what the trailer promised us gore hounds will be in the game!

... what?

To summarize, there's pitchfork kills in a trailer and he's wondering why they weren't in beta.

My guess is there may be different equippable weapons in the loadouts and it just wasn't finished for beta. Or even simpler the pitchfork wasn't done for the beta itself.

Or maybe it's an environmental kill, grab them near the pitchfork and you can trigger a pitchfork kill just like a fireplace or toilet.

What are you on about?

The pitchfork sequence in the trailer, seriously?

Sometimes things get dropped during developpement. Nothing to do with censorship. Have you even seen footage of the beta?

If an idiot feels entitled enough to file a complaint about this, well good luck to him!

And seriously, Drive, tainted?

Also I suggest double checking what you say about trailers because they are still very much doing it.

I...I really feel like you're playing fast and loose with the word "promised" when it comes to a trailer from before the beta was even out. But, uh, you're entitled to your opinion. Good luck to ya.

You didnt read the part about people suing the powerful Hollywood film industry and while nothing came out of it, point here is that Gaming industry is not as powerful as the Hollywood film industry, imagine if same people run to court again and sued for so called False Advertisment ? As I say again I remain casually optimistic.

That wasnt promised, would however make a nice bonus in a game like this as sex and nudity goes hand in hand with the slasher genre.

Isnt this your 2nd thread about this topic?
Its already been said that the absense of these kills have nothing to do with censorship, as they have been applied to the savini Jason at this point in time. They may return later on but as of now its because they felt as if SJ should have them.

That was more of a showcas of kills, it wasnt really a trailer. The game has changed alot since then meaning that each jason has his own weapon, here they are.
P2: PickAxe
P3: Axe
P6: Spear
P7: Machete
P8: FireAxe
P9: Axe
SJ: Trident

Also the beta was missing a ton of kills, because it wasnt a finished product.

The pitchfork kills are imo the greatest kills that why I very much would like them in the game. And yes they tried even harder to taint film Drive, look it up.

Except P2 has a Pickaxe.

But yeah, it was nothing to do with censorship. The pitchfork kills are for Savini Jason with his Devil's Pitchfork

Friday the 13th flicks always had to fight against Censorship and I don't know why because it seems like Nightmare on Elm Street was able to get away with showing gruesome death scenes back in the 80's. It's almost like Hollywood favored Nightmare on Elm Street over Friday the 13th. Speaking of that, I don't even know who the Director of Friday the 13th was. While we all know who the Director of A Nightmare on Elm Street is and Halloween. Wes Craven and John Carpenter are some of the most famous Directors. Why didn't the Friday the 13th Director gain as much fame?

Unlike Friday films the Elm Street kills not only took place in the dream world but for most part the kills were so over to top, not saying Elm Street 3 got away Scot free in Europe back in those funny days. But to show a real big man named Jason hacking teenagers to pieces?! NOW theres was a true menance to society and many European countries banned all Friday the 13th films until 2001 when they removed all censorship in all but European countries, most nuicance nowadays comes from either (UK) sex reasons and Germany (Violence reasons). Sean Cunningham didnt get any love from critics for original Friday the 13th as most critics felt it was only a bloodier and gorier version of Halloween which lacked the suspense of Halloween. BOX OFFICE would however prove the critics wrong,

How can we all buy Tom Savini Jason then ? What are your plans?

Savini Jason can no longer be bought. He was exclusive to Kickstarter, and Backerkit, and will NOT be sold again. Sorry.

That just put us regular buyers back at square one with no chance for regular users obtaing Savini Jason as pitchfork kills are imo the coolest kills while the others are pretty meh looking.

PS Had this game been made by R* or Naughty Dog there had been no issues.

Remember when Kill Zone 4 on PS4 got sued for not delievering the goods?
