yeah
Hn models haven't had bad topology so far as I can tell so I doubt they'll need nanite
skibidi theodore...
That is still a bit concerning

Fair
I just wanna make sure yk
(again, theyre all placeholders so maybe my question is dumb)
Nanite isn't really the best I've seen but I haven't even seen it used in a game
in short
you want to play hn3 on an average, or low end pc which is not rtx 6969? and i666 processor?
so do I.
Idk, I have a midrange PC that is able tp handle most UE5 games (...most)
chat hear me out
HN 3 is not their first game
they arent idiots. im pretty sure they know what they are doing
i asked nikita about the optimization, he didnt respond but i think ill get a new pc JUST for hn3.
Games which use UE5 are often poorly optimised
almost all hn games are pretty well optimized
you can run that stuff on a fridge if you could
UE5 games are pretty hard on the computer
You don't gotta downplay optimization concerns
Especially for the demon engine
yeah...
Hi guys
YES
i get having concerns but like im starting to feel like this is getting pretty silly if you ask me
Maybe if they sticked to UE4 my concerns would've been none
Rip arkane austin unreal done killed yall
idk if mine can
i have gtx card and everything else is average.
so it's good question indeed.
i hope they'll make it possible.
weirdly, hn2 struggles a bit with the recommended card, so...steam requirements are unreliable imo.
Whats happening
Was a very reasonable question
it just depends on how many settings are included with HN3, like disable foliage, shaders, and as much as you can do on UE5 for performance
Hn2 is cancelled
Thats really it
Secret Neighbor:
Ik
Isn't secret neighbor unity?
I do see why tho tbf
It really depends on the dev
no
yes lol
its always been UE
But am actual ending woulda been nice
OH
Ah
Yes and it still runs like doodoo
yes????
Wasnt pre alpha hn1 made in unity?
ok ok
every HN game is UE, i think.
π
I hope the team can make a more or less good optimization for the game on UE5. But we will see everything on release
No
What
i saved up for my pc for THREE damned years. THREE. i can't afford new parts if ue5 decides to point a finger at me
that finger
once i got that finger with 4.21, let's hope it won't happen anymore.
Almost all of them
Erg needa make their own in house engine purely for hello neighbor
no biggie man 
Definitely not unreasonable
pre alpha on 4.8.3
the dyslexia is a curse
well, when the first alpha is released (if it is) we'll get to see some optimization.
or some settings
see how well it can run
UE4
50 on 50
Why does alpha 1 crash so easily
UE5 optimization is a big concern for me ngl
same
Cus itβs a alphaπ±π±π±
Cuz he literally touched me and i crashed
alphas usually aren't that optimized
since they're alphas
i think?
cuz i myself worked in ue5 and it can be a bit funky
like i said, i might get a whole new pc just for hn3
Thats also true tho
(and gmod of course)
just a mention of that blasted game makes my pc sweat
No sh*t but alpha 1 has the most crashes
and i love gmod
i hope nikita adresses that
Pre alpha:
did you lower the settings?
Ye
to potato or whatever
how
well thats just alpha bugs.
is ur pc a fryer
I wouldn't doubt the models have good topology if it's mostly the same art team
I once sneezed and alpha 1 crashed
it's rather what is happening code-wise, than how's the foliage not optimized
wait nvm i remember
how old is your PC?
6 months lol
or you could check your drivers n stuff
placeholder ones surely had
idk the new ones they'll make
the foliage in prealpha is fine
its something entirely different crashing the game
I broke my computer anyway might get a new one soon idk
bad code perhaps 
possibly
Alpha 1 was rushed anyways wasnt it?
or maybe its just because some props are pretty hd
i dont think so
heh if only i could get new pc's the way people buy bread
Yeah itβs usually code and not graphics
I think so because there was a plan for a player model and all 6 floors
bad cpu utilization handling perhaps
maybe
im not even sure
i can tell you how to crash prealpha and alpha 1 100% method
but I'd be happier if i didn't know these
i didnt benchmark the game or anyth
what???
Bro its true
but i usually have settings cranked high
Too early to say anything about that
Search up hn unused content on yt
i blame consumer society if anything
:OKAY: thanks anyway
they planned, never added it.
a fangame adds it, Alternate Reality
Alpha 2 still my fav anyways
And the neighbors comeback
Chat do i go for 100% in cookie clicker?
Same
i have hope
trust on everyones soul it will
you say that like hes a pokemon
nikita attack !
LOL
did i word that poorly
sorry if i did im not an english native
i rebuke
i trust nikita too
Those prototypes he showed off were pretty cool ngl
hopefully it doesnt go old hn
we understood π
π kinda dw i get you. english also isnt my first language
where its art style changes and rushed
you cant !
it does that? i thought nanite was awesome
on EVERYONES SOUL hn 3 will be perfect
i've literally never seen anyone praise nanite
ay dont bet me on this too
Its only effective if the mesh has good topology
Bad*
nanite sounds like some sort of chemical compound
I dont think it was rushed there was just overwhelming success and they had to get it out
nanite and lumen are the natural enemies of poor people
If it has good topology than it does some funky things to the cpu
did he ever release the Prototype he was talking about in the video
Lumen is good in 5.5.
...Nanite isnt.
my pc thinks otherwise
which one
"gmod is an old source game, you can run it perfectly"
my pc begs to differ.
I played games with it enabled by default
my oc begs to differ on everygame
any of them thay look fun
hello neighbor, hn fangames, roblox, source games, scp, ajything
they cant
Frrr
He gave us Switch Man
as long as they dont use hl2 assets they cant
afk rq..
wish they could i am tired of anything skibidi having merch or deals
it's not that hard to just tune it out
Next Christmas is 25/25/25
it was stolen assets it still is stolen assets how did they get away with this is insane
we need the one ware your theching
And for americans that is 25/25/25
5.4-5.5 is JUST out, theres no games on this.
so you wait and see
you mean teaching?
if so thats not released
5.4-5.5 performs quite well but still bad 
The guy who made it is probably giving Valve a cut of the sales possibly?
devs have their hands on it though
i seriously doubt that
nope
if anyone can recommend ue5 games which i could try and are free, let me know
I wanted to test
and no, not bad fnaf fangamess which either start or notππ
valve just doesn't care
ik, what im saying is you cant try it out in a game rn, simply because no one had updated the engine.
tjoc? 
its a fnaf fangame
but its not bad
the joy of creation
vapves probably arming their lawyers, or theyll do it once it gets in fortnite
its awesome
all we need is the one with the giant monster and the other two I mentioned thay look fun
attack on the birth..
this new demo they had released
they aren't
its in UE5
gabe newell is playing dota and throwing cash at deadlock or something
the skibidi toilet spokesperson is here...
yeah i dont think valve cares
i cant remember the name im sorry
they literally have 0 reason to care
Tinybuilds got more baclash for announcing HN3 then confirming patch 10 is cancelled
I guess it's cuz people already expected that it was cancelled
yeah backlash from spineless people who changed opinions the moment they saw more about the game
But no one expected HN 3 at all
π€·ββοΈ
im p sure no one changed opinions
ive seen people switch up live in this chat
so loud yet so wrong
π
I think It's more cuz people we're worried patch 10 was cancelled rather than the game itself
Idk what these people we're expecting tbh
why are u being so rude π
a lot of youtubers did.
i never understood this like really deep care for HN 2 π
and so their audiences.
There is no saving HN2
Same
me either
where is the rude ? π i cannot even joke in these streets
me being jumped again
that is true
Like i understand the money thing but the game wasn't even that good anyways
not suprised people are mad the unfinished game they bought is going to be unfinished in place of a new game
#SaveHN2byputtingitoutofitsmisery
This statement is incorrect
Most people including toddlers expected a HN3
π girl wdym nobody expected that
HN 3 was such a random annoucement but it was exciting
Who you callin "girl" lol? Also mind as well scroll through the YT comments..
i call everyone girl its slang π im not calling you a GIRL GIRL its just slang
people mass-hated on the AS too when it started
look where we are now
people change their mind all the time, i don't understand either
it was sorta surprising but i expected they would eventually
I mean, ig it was becoming a bit more obvious as episode 7 was closer but it was still a bit random
Right???
WHAT
hn3 launch trailer being hosted at a kids daycare
I don't think anyone expected it to happen before the announcements
Yep me too
Chat i left dor 5 minutes what happened
okay diva
ROTM was released
check if the elongated man is in ur house
someone got robbed and a guy got ran over
Mate im bloody devastated
i'm not
Thats my dad..
Xd
Yeah and hello neighbour 2 alpha 2 came out
π«¨
my mind auto corrected that to SOTM... fnaf has swallowed my mind
pls stop hurting meπ
check Nikita messages
that's what's happened
THE MIMIC
find my secret
sescrets of the mimic will launch on ue5 with 5 fps on console
its ue4 so no
heed my warning scott forgot to tell them the story again
I have hn3 already noobs
he didnt forget that dusty bastard didnt tell them on purpose π
The guest
SW putting a stupid code on their files, even though people will check them anyway
the mimic's secret is game footage apparently π€₯
Signed
steel wool classic actually
Shit idk what to discuss anymore, I give up
yall need to hope off...
please everyone, this is #hn3-discussion , for other game topic please use #games
How about my Minecraft hn3 teasers
Itβs still hn3
Guys i was outside earlier and i said hello to my neighbor
π€
Then they kidnapped me and put me in their basement
Damn
Tall Aaron
the fact that Jacob will betray me in the game and Neighbor is my only hope and trust
i know for sure
it is NOT aaron
How tall r hn characters supposed to be anyways
You're right
Did anyone care about these
It's big johnny
Thanks
no clue
no official heights at all
Neighbor gotta be 5'3
Did you like my mannequin
I'm cm π
yeah
Yay
I like it
Thanks
we love a short king !
I'd say he's between 170 and 185 cm
I'm going to ignore that he's barely taller than Quentin
Theodore is taller in hn2 πππ
Back problems
Im thinking of just making my own hn3 or abandoned raven brooks and just calling it a hn3 map cuz like why not
we need elena back for HN 3 so i can get my hot mr peterson back π
hes a late bloomer π₯
wild comment
the rules of nature is that canon neighbor is a little bean shaped man
but fanon neighbor is a tall handsome beast
i ain't writing the rules
Living the best life
Idk why i will always prefer hn1
yeah in my head is a tall handsome beast
especially the hN 2
they knew what they were DOING
FACTS
I'm sorry this is THE facts
Thatβs actually a really cool drawing
you get me
Yeah it fr sucks, thank you
will hn3 have water bottle as a milk jug again
for scientific reasons
What
I can summarise the first 2 hn games
Hn1- poopy
Hn2- slightly less poopy
Dude you put more into the work than my drawings lol
Urs is good compared to my drawings
Mine are just thumb creatures
yeah the tiny little Neighbor fanclub we have, appreciates his hn2 look very much
but i like the Nikita Neighbor as well, so like
Neighbor - Neighbor
This looks like something from AU ONI
or whatever that game's called
π nikita we need to get ELENA BACK NOW
I mean urs is an actual thing
Good drawings btw
Thanks
My back..
hmm
Where is half of him lol
oof
i saw it vanishing
Let's call him the hunchback
cries...
This was all that we got so far
We've been getting seprate teasers that we had to try and piece it together
chat wasn't mentally ready for my pfp
that's the deal
?
oof 3
Well?
π he is still handsome in my eyes
DO NOT ASSASINATE ME FOR THE TRUTH TINYBUILD
I SEE YOU
And still a badass
fr fr
Signed, Jacob, big johnny, Jack Black
if yall could bring ONE character from HN / HN2 to HN3
who would it be
obviously the ones we already have, are excluded
I'd bring Smith
MiTH, quentin and beatrix
gerda shes so cool
always liked her design the most
100% agree
what would she do tho
Adult Aaron and the mayor cuz he's a cultist
sweet croissant lady
him or nicky
make million croissants like in the beta
Beatrix and Gerda
And adult nicky
true
i kinda expect nicky to appear
he will...right...right?π₯Ί
Also Quentin and Smith
We can only hope
i want my sweet croissant lady back π
nikita please π£ππ
Same here
You can't convice me that's not the guest
i thought that was the neighbor
oh yeah i meant humans
didn't even think of the animals tbh
Strange.. Theo having a small head
true tho
As for humans, I really do need Imbir back
the animals by that time clearly joined the imbir cult
they worship the kitten, that's the only way they can survive
||jk||
you can see his beak
it kinda looks like his half his head is covered by a item
OHHH THAT IS THE GUEST
Imbir is ugly (don't kill me please)
Well, it's ur own opinion
What if the cultists are worshipping imbir now
Eerm... guys? is that freddy fazbear?
Har har harhar har har harhar harhar har har harhar har har harhar
Nikita, was the franchise ever inspired by David Lynch's Β«Twin PeaksΒ»? Yes, this is more of a question about Β«Hello Neighbor 2Β» which has a show called Β«Nouds of TanureΒ» on TV that has a logo that references the Β«Twin PeaksΒ» logo, but still.
The guet cuz he's cool
Forest protectors are DUMB
nuh uh
Yuh uh
they we're cooking in hello neighbor season 2
Yeah
in the animated show
But the forest protectors are dumb
true they are a little dumb
The guest is smart
i think they intended to make him scary
Smort little bird
Im excited to see how he will be like in AS season 3
true what if the forest protectors worship the guest or smth and thats why they have bird masks on
That's most likely the case
and the forest protectors and the guest team up
I don't like that tbh
It's not a bad plot
But i think it woudl be cool if the guest just isn't associated with them
tbh i would enjoy the guest doing it alone (i just want him to have more screen time)
But they still worship him
Same
Though it makes sense for him to be using the cult
I really hope he's like in GN2
ngl i want a new hello neighbor book
because in the last one the guest sent a picture to a little girl and said "he's coming for you" or smth like that
You mean piper
Yeah
I think a book focused on beatrix would be cool (if she wasn't dead)
i doubt they'll do it
alex considers the AS the 'definitive' lore in his eyes
that makes sense
The AS is good but i wish it was accurate to the books
yeah same i want it to be a little accurate but keep it how it is
Yep, it would add alot. Maritza lost a lot of persoanlities traits that she had in the books
It also kinda bothers me how it seems like the kids don't even know Aaron or mya in the show
Hello Neighbor 3 seems like it's actually aware of the fact it's an indie game, you've got devlogs that actually give info and aren't just a talking cat, it's just a real dude talking about his passion project (ik it's Nikita) Ik some people are upset about the cancellation of patch 10 but gonna be real here they would need way more than 10 patches to add all the promised stuff that wasnt added on launch and probably 10 more to fix THOES patches
yeah only nicky knows aaron and mya
Yeah but even then he never mentions them
the definitive lore that literally doesnt even fit with the games
which sucks because it was only referenced in the pilot
Yeah
the pilot was good so good ngl
Eh
Thats like the only thing the pilot got right
Sure..
true
i feel like we should be in the off topic section because we are fr getting off topic
The pilot was bad imo
i feel liked the plot but it could use alot of work to be good
Have you guys seen those hideous concept designs for the full show ππ
It just felt way too boring and long and the humor was hideous
"bird dookie present" - nicky
i get that part and it also only had 3 people
wait actually 4
I kinda prefered Maritza being like just a excited kid than a generic tom boy, if they toned it down I think it could've worked
nicky,theo,trinity,maritza
it could've
but i have a question
What
Police officer probably frees her
I mean, the current maritza has given us some glorious lines
current maritza is annoying
looking around all Sus
but she broke into a prison and let out a poisoner
you've been acting pretty sus lately
also in the hello neighbor 2 one of the police officers are one of the forest protectors
She could easily say she was manipulated
Or they get her parents
Yeah but that doesn't change what i said
and she gets bailed out for summer school
but now thinking about it this is gonna be sad since trinity will be in summer school so we might not see her in season 3
The kids of raven brooks are actual sociopaths
not summer school
We Will?
She's literally the main characters
ik
She's the main protagonist
wasnt it boarding school?
Yes
She probably won't even be moved to it cuz S2 foreshadowed her parents dying
And it also wouldn't make sense to have a different protagonist in season 3
that happended i forgot
it could if they made it nicky
very sad.
Even then it would feel weird to have a different protagonist all of a sudden
It wouldnt make sense. Like why suddenly the transition
Exactly
Murdering a bunch of kids and then afterwards going "no witnesses", laughing at a traumatised kid, locking that kid in the same basement he was locked in, making him go even more insane and then making him go to a mental asylum. (Trinity is evil and you can't make me change my mind)
Also heβs practically disabled at this point
True lmao
i just realized in the books weren't aaron and mya investigating the forest protectors which is why they trash his part as a warning
Omori


I'm glad the show changed there mind about making it a direct adaptation of the books
Having elements of the books added to it would've been great though
But not maybe not for the same reason
it was never going to be that
They do
I swear I heard that somewhere
Forgot where
bro rn be like
Very few ones
WHERE IS PETERSON MANIPULATING A PERSONS LIFE TO IMPRISON THE-
oh wait hold on. Now that i think abt itβ¦
Hello neighbour 3βs White House from the teasers
That's sick
bro owns the white house
the neighbor is him
Freddy go back to filming the second movie
ughhh do i have to
yes
You have not finished har har harring
Let's har har har together
bye bye guest
GUEST NOOO
The only thing I don't like about the show is the fact there's multiple guest
good job mr peterson
those aren't the guest
Are they not?
those are forest protectors from the boo
Imma do smth bad to you Freddy fazbear
books*
Thoes goddam books
thats why in the pilot mr peterson had some short of green gem device thing
Watch out for some guy named Big_Willie69 when you go to the streets buddy
the books forest protectors werent just shitty guest copies
He'll be watching out for me
π
π
So how do I tell the difference
Is the guest like the one in patch 9?
Nah
idk if the patch 9 guest is the guest or not
Crowfaces are badass
the guest is just the guest prob
How we feeling bout devlog 1.5
patch 9 guest has cloak so it might be a crowface
also the guest in the intro didnt have a cloak
You're right though
his guest is the guest
this*
Actually no
It can't be a crowface cuz he's wearing the guest's outift
The intro is probably just outdated
they could of updated the intro
Yeah
there was like 5 hotfixes for patch 9
Makes hello neighbor 3 feel like a genuine passion project and an indie game not just some game that wants to be the next fnaf made for money full of unmade promises
But that will never happen
patch 9 had like 5 hotfixes, and they didnt update the intro
They probably Just forgot about it or smth
this is prob just the actual guest with a cloak on to look scarier and creepier
Or it was supposed to be updated in patch 10
or was hello neighbor 2 predicting the future?
What?
And plus, why would his cloak be like that?
the guest always has a bag
never a cloak
the only guest like things that have cloaks are the crowfaces
Ever heard of updated design?
No more golden apple kink 
An early reveal teaser has the old design
well why didnt they update the intro
it would take like 5 seconds
I already said it
It was probably going to be updated in patch 10
I wish you we're right though
why not update it in the 5 hotfixes?
Idk bro im not a dev
Go ask tinybuilds
Would be cool if you we're right
Cuz i prefer the old design over the new one, It makes the forest protectors look more distinct
But it still wouldn't make sense for the new guest to be a crowface cuz why would they wear the guest's outfit?
the crowfaces are literally just guests with cloaks
Ok but why would they have the same stitched up outift as him?
And why are they all fat?
It just doesn't add up
Well we're talking about hello neighbor so maybe you are right
But i doubt
RIP Patch 10 man...
RIP
the crowfaces were probably meant to be the same as the guest at first
In the AS?
No in WTRB π
No shit Sherlock
Well unless that was the original plan i don't think that's the case
no there is not
they were calling the crowfaces the guest at first
Your a lil late
Yeah of course
That would spoil the plot twist
Which is that the crowfaces and the guest aren't the same
The weather station is so confusing to me like wdym its used to ACTUALLY CHANGE THE WEATHER which is also the apperantly the reason the time of day changes everytime you die in hello neighbor 1 which makes NO SENSE, which is also where the neighbors parents apperantly used to work at and that the neighbor once uses to FLOOD THE WHOLE TOWN
If Alex says something it's automatically bs
"DIAGONAL"
"the reason the time of day changes everytime you die in hello neighbor 1 which makes NO SENSE"
where did you get this from
He once promised a whole hn1 remake
It was like a summary of the books I watched
He mentions a bunch of stuff
in the books it didnt even change the weather
That never ends up happening
But he literally said "don't get your hopes up right after"
only time it did anything close was using cloud seeding
Didn't see that
Aren't the cultists the ones that do the weather thing?
yeah
using the luck devices
What summary did I f*ing watch ππ
Good question
let me guess... the guy who did the summary was hating on hn?
and because of that did a bunch of misinfomation?
Maybe idk probs
Didn't the neighbor use those to flood the town aswell?
he used cloud seeding
What?
Isn't that a real thing
yes
The hell is a cloud seeding
a real way to cause weather
They use to make crops grow better and faster
Is it a plant or smth?
it is
Weather plants
not plants
Cloud seeding is a type of weather modification that aims to change the amount or type of precipitation, mitigate hail or disperse fog. The usual objective is to increase rain or snow, either for its own sake or to prevent precipitation from occurring in days afterward.
Cloud seeding is undertaken by dispersing substances into the air that serve...
Where am I getting my sh*t from
I do love the energy
Burnouts genuinely suck, itβs that feeling of not having the spark to do something but also feel like you have to no matter what.
me too
any other secrets in devlog 1.5 other than the eyes?
Not gonna lie I actually wanna see more of those experimental prototypes from nikita that were shown off for devlog 1.5
same
especially the time one
that looks cool
Some people knew hn2 was canceled, others were mad over hn3 being made before any confirmations of hn2's status.
There was about me and my friend who didn't actually care we were just sitting back seeing where it went
Went about the way i shouldve expected it but
Still all that shit being flung in this server the past year was not worth it
It wasn't, and it truly won't be recoverable in the long run
Yeah same, I hope he can release them at some point, if they are in a more "finished" and playable state, they all look really cool to play.
Took us way to long to get any info on HN2 once Nikita left that was it trailers were a load a fibs, teasers stopped we got flung a game of absolutely no integrity told that we would have to wait forever just so Alex or someone could release pieces of the game along with the show then it got cancelled so were still waiting on it just for the big devlog news to be that theyve bottled it
I think what kept me liking HN2 what kept me going with it was hope mainly there was a lot to hope for being telt that they're listening to thoughts and the grand patch 10 will bring everything everyones wanted of it but that was pish aswell
I'm really hoping hello neighbor 3, will take ideas from the original hello neighbor alpha, where it looked more realistic and was focused on the horror aspect, I also hope it relies on one objective, One house, with mini games and a basement.
That's unfortunately true, considering that we wasted our time and excitement over a game that wouldn't even last very long
"Wait he's about to mention HN2 hes gonna tell when PATCH 10 IS GONNA REL-" "It's cancelled"
Dont know what i was hoping for honestly
Yeah I really liked the giant creature one it's a really cool concept
Me too, and even if hn2 ever gets a new patch. I wouldn't be suprised or anything
But I would've loved to try out the update itself
Hello Gaybor 3 will be the one
I keep seeing an image go about of us falling into another HN Full game trap
But the image just makes me feel like who ever made it doesnt know the behind the scenes lore
Even the design and the concept itself just feels... different... odd
Only the character themselves and the overall music are what makes it hn but other than that, hn3 just doesn't feel like hn by its artstyle (I won't complain about that, not that it matters)
But something about how hn3 was announced didn't make me feel excited, it made me feel disappointed.
Like if everything we saw in hn2 was just... there and is now being replaced by its formally new sibling
If anything, this is how I describe my vision to hn2 as a whole after hn3's release
I really wished hello neighbor 2 was rather called hello neighbor revelations while hn3 was called hn2 instead
So that way it doesn't feel out of place for hn2 to even be a sequel that leaves no story whatsoever while hn3 carries everything that hn1 last left off
I'm honestly really happy that HN3 will have the same sandbox elements as HN1
even if it was kinda controversial, I really missed it
I don't mind the sandbox elements, even if I think the open world concept for hn would've fit better considering that we are in a neighborhood and would've been excellent for us to interact with any of the npc's
I really do wish nikita decides to change the name for hn3 to hn2, as it could possibly be the real sequel that follows the story of hn1
And someone at egs decides to change the name for hn2 into hn revelations or something
If they dont use βdouble lifeβ in the hn movie im jumping
Who will bor man be tonights thats the question who will ted be tonight that the peel station
Hey Nikita, Hope you're doing well, I wanted to ask if you're planning the hn3 map to be bigger/smaller than the hn2 One or even same size.
Thanks for the eventual answerβ€οΈ
They say they plan on keeping a small amount of characters so the AI turns out better but as we have seen things like Jacob going to work there may be a lot of other locations to explore
Mh..noted. I Hope that there Will be at least the same anount of characters as hn2.
Also, It would be cool to see some neighbors with an actual house like Ted.
And then enemies Just wandering around Causing troubles like signed ecc..
Also the guest coming at night mechanic
Do we have hn3 gameplay yet
Not yet, but as soon as we're ready to show off some footage, you folks will be the first to know!
this reminds me of something
Yo Nikita, for HN3 Gameplay in preference. Is there any plans to have the ability to change both key mappings and WASD? in HN1 and 2 you can change controls, but not WASD at all
Our goal is to make map in a way that only things that meaningful and intractable there, and you can go inside every building. So, no fake building or decorations. The scale of the map is depends on how we can achieve these things. If we can make it work only on a tiny map, so be it. If weβll be able to achieve bigger scale - even better. In conclusion, size of the map is depends on our other goals and not goal itself.
It sure will be one hell of a game, tho I hope the slot system changes, in one of your gameplay screenshots, it showed 4 slots where you grab items. For this big a game I hope the slot system would be as big as in HN2
im still sad to see hn2 be canned but i hope hn3 is better than it was
As long as the new perfect development approach stays, I have good hopes it will turn out great.
im sure hn3 will be good
I feel like Nikita is the only one who actually listens to feedback and gives us honest answers and progress, and for that I am very thankful :]
As I always say, keep your head clear and approach all we do with a grain of salt. Do not trust anything until you play it yourself. This will help us to keep healthy environment. I want everyone to be on this journey with us as game being developed. And explore this concept for the game as we ourselves trying to figure it out. Rather than us being a black box that spits out trailers.
has there been any concept art for hn3?
does the peterson art count
dunno
True words, always. But even slight of hope is important, same for the developing team too. Without it you can't find joy in this project.
I personally will keep my hopes up, and my final touch of trust comes after I see the full release gameplay walkthroughs myself. Before installing/buying the game, hopes continue to grow if the alphas and full release are not 99% different like HN2. Which shows a better development approach.
I'm mostly intrigued for the storywriting system within the game, AI interactions, and return of so many things from HN1. And the amazing art style, what would make my gaming experience better is a 100% flexible key mapping system. And an expanded slot to grab items. Keep going forward! π
I hope you keep the slide mechanic from rbo, that looked cool. Oh and Nikita, ever thought about bringing back the farmer?
I have high hopes, I remember waiting forever for hn2 but what I got wasβ¦ well yeah but Iβll keep hn3 on my radar π
I personally think HN2 is awesome
HN3 looks even cooler
And the graphics look insane
Oh my God thanks for answering me!!!β€οΈ
Nikita i have a question about last weekends ai test:
What did the team think of the test?
the foliage π
We played it and collected short survey. It led to an interesting conclusion. Those you knew the most about the mechanics and capabilities got a few hours of genuine fun out it. Those you knew less about certain aspects of the game got significantly less fun (or no fun at all). So this week we focused on adding more things that will help this prototype to be more universal. So the person who knows nothing about it can pickup and have fun.
Thank you for answering 
Nikita, will we have any new movement abilities in HN3 and will climbing and vaulting return from HN2? Cuz in rbo the player could slide
Sliding would be cool
I'm wondering if there's any Hope for a man in the hat or farmer comeback in hn3 π€
Smith, definitely, farmer, I hope so but prob not
They HAVE tΓ² give US mith..
H
They've kept teasing him for years...
The gravestone in the graveyard,
The cameo in the AS..
It can't be Just an easter egg
Yeah
Also...he Is my fav character...so finger crossed
I REALLY hope the farmer returns, llamas would be so cool in hn3
Like It would be so cool to have:
- enemy Characters in houses like Ted
-enemy Characters roaming around at Day time like signed
-neutral characters like Jacob and Iris
-The guest,evil character, roaming around at night
And mith could be the cherry on top...an antihero playing against everyone by his own rules and goals...
It would be perfect
Hard to say at the moment. Me personally love sliding and climbing. But the question really is:βwill it make sense for the game to haveβ. Thus I canβt say for sure, we gotta see
That answer is good enough for me
This Dynamic could bring different relationships and interactions between characters
Iβm really glad you guys are focusing on making hn3 more universally understandable to players going in completely blind tbh
I feel like some of the previous games could have been really difficult on anyone going in blind (not so much hn2 and hnhs but hn1 for sure) and I personally really like when I can sit down and be able to understand whatβs happening and what Iβm supposed to do dynamically rather than having it spoon-fed or having to search something up
wait when was he in the AS
I forgor
S2 ep4 left of ottos house
Yeah i really hope the final game have a proper tutorial
So you arent just launched into the open world with no clue what to do
π
i hope for a music player in the game for when hn3 releases
i mean i think it would make sense no ? if we are still breaking into houses i think some sort of climbing mechanic would do well
thats one thing i love about HN 2 the fact we can actually grab onto ledges it makes it a lot easier
would be cool to have it in HN 3
well, as I'm currently thinking, that map needs a few characters. if everything goes well for them, it will be a kinda big map, and that map needs to be filled with life. one of the problems the HN2 map had, was that it was a ghost town, there was not a soul walking on the streets. crows are cool, but they did a fly circle, and that was it.
I obviously don't want walking NPC's you can kick or slide into (sliding would be cool btw) but eventually I should stumble into someone when I'm walking
dying light-like climbing mechanic would be amazing
as a really big dying light fan i agree
i mean it will we have seen the game
it looks awesome
so far the best looking HN game to date from what we have seen
where
steam page ?
right
and screenshots shared by the one and only nikita
those screenshots give me such a dopamine rush they look so GOOD
im so excited
idk how to put it into words but i really hope the town will be more βdynamicβ instead of being multiple isolated realms connected by roads like hn2 was
okay that looks really good
it will i think
The only thing I'm missing for happiness is good AI
already the town in this game feels super like real
the entire map from what we seen
hopefully
the russian city inspired raven brooks is so cool looking
I do hope we might see man in the hat return but i unfortunally doubt it
isnt he dead
i thought he was donzo dead and gone
idk exactly how Iβd describe it but it doesnβt feel Russian at all to me
it was the inspiration ^^
Well yeah but they could always retcon it heh
(Joke)
π
did Nikita say anything
im pretty sure i remember him saying it
hold on
ill find it
ahh yes
sorry
he said
We have three types of styles combined for HN3, to achieve the desired vibe.
It's Scandinavian, American rural and Eastern European rural architecture
so yeah its a mix
At least we Will see the guest hopefully get a proper spotlight in a full release
Or a big role i assume
although to me
as someone who lives in a slavic country
it really fits close to home
they got it spot onnn
which one π
15000 dollars on Poland
close but noo
π΅π± POLSKA GUROM
Czech Republic
''heart of europe''
yop
ahoj
are YOU Polish
yep
hey we are country neighbors !
Hello neighbor
indeed...

Im from Brazil

well Iβve lived my entire life in America
i mean its still counts u got slavic blood in youuu
truth
also got the culture + language
well there u go
I know only priviet
Do u think america is a good countrtly? (I am assuming you are talking about usa)
we have many flaws ofc but itβs a pretty nice country for the most part
Yea, i think the same, one of my dreams is to live there
Hopefully i can do this on the future
Me 2
Ai sim
I feel like he did get inspired from the western parts of Eastern Europe more than the deep eastern parts
tho I do kinda get a rural Soviet vibe from that last image
yess
i like the mix
its a mix of all the things good
which was heavily inspired by Bulgaria so
i love the really grim aesthetic of the place
facts
I hope they donβt lean too deep into βrealismβ and more focus on perfecting the environment
off topic but I feel like a lot of games nowadays just focus everything on realism and uniqueness and atmosphere are thrown out
they wont
clearly the game still has that wacky HN artstyle in some way
yup
but way toned down so its not a pain to look at like it was in HN 1 for example
hn1βs artstyle could have worked so well but they messed up a lot
I mean they literally had it working PERFECTLY
alpha 2
that was not even intentional
it wasnt but it still reminds me of it
its the buildings
but thats a good thing
like a really really good thing
i love how this game looks
specifically the scene in the last image
the rest not so much but that one is uncanny
i feel like they already did. that screenshot with the church in the middle or what it was
is like perfect
feels like something i would see here
Ah yeah, absolutely
are you also slavic ?
Yes 
hn2 felt more like a giant exurb than a town
its just so awesome
i still cant get over how good haze sounds (music that nikita shared yesterday)
it was mostly meant to be a neighborhood yeah. a weird one but it still somewhat worked
haze ?
brb
yea haze_sketch_wav
i dont think i heard it yet
lemme listen
oh
im more of a
memoryinstrumental girlie
that track hits so hard
#russian-chat
i agree with youu
the slavs are gathering
π dude i thought that said something else help
True
you cannot throw that word at a dyslexic like that π
Nikita would we get more images soon of Mr Peterson
i do think climbing made hn2 way to easy
No i like it personally
games are supposed to be fun, not a struggle
good
i hated the parkour in HN 1
it wasnt fun
HN 2 actually made it fun and simple
Yeah i was not a fan of hello Neighbor 1 parkour
i dont think anyone was
what parkour
Like in the game itself
Or a roblox parkour game after it?
Yes
box STACKING π
We defenitly need vaulting in hn3 from hn2
anywho
i looked at the HN 3 screenshots again
and the thing i was calling a church seems to be more of a town hall ?
rather then a church
Climbing/vaulting in HN3 is a must have, HN1 and H&S suffered greatly in terms of navigation because of the lack of it.
Exactly
This
And I personally think sliding is more so a fun gimmick (I can only imagine it coming in handy a couple of times).
hi
hello
Hello Neighbor 2 despite that im not really a fan of it
Improved a lot of Things gameplay wise from hn1
HΔ°
any news
hi
i haven't been online since last evening
It doesnβt have to be a gimmick if the level design itself bears the mechanic in mind, say for instance you can slide underneath a small table and come up from the other end to avoid being grabbed easily.
Which ties in well with the decision making aspect of the game.
About the guest if he is a stalker ai would you prefer him to stalk you at night only or at day too?
we discuss it here
news are usually in #work-in-progress
ok
Iβd prefer if he stalked us basically 24/7, but only got close/attacked us at night (if we donβt stand near a light source).
Iirc, on one of the screenshots (the one with the very realistic grass in the bottom left and the bus stop in the distance) it had debug text regarding the playerβs light level, so that might already be the case in the current prototype.
Hello
Question: what will be the story in hn3?
we dont know about the story of HN3 yet
