Tomorrow it has to be. It was my prediction
If they don’t use it what won’t make sense to me is they make a new house for devs to use and not the public but when they go to the prototypes they don’t offer us it?
yeah
its unfinished
while they making it, the online devs said "dont do it"
and then they moved to singleplayer
Could easily be finished, half of the HN1 houses wasn’t finished in the pre alphas and alphas
Fair enough
literally dont do it though
Entire upstairs of HN1 pre alphas house wasn’t accessible
it was the deadside Devs right
It looks like such a good house tho
Wonder if that house would even work well in single player
prototype and Devlog might be releasing soon
this week
even it can be today or tomorrow they made changes for steam page
yeah
but i dont think its today
but its tomorrow
i thnk
I’m watching a video on HN3 stuff the house screenshot I sent apparently it’s the house that appeared in RBO pre alpha could devs only access that alpha
Apparently the house from RBO is this but textured
Was there only 1 house in RBO?
I dont think its coming today
no
This house might be in the files of HN3 prototype since it is built of it
That doesn’t matter
How many houses was there in RBO?
Previous devlogs came out on different times
oh yeah...
for me devlog 1 was 12 am
Hn2 Devlog 1 released an hour from now for example
ok so we're hopesmaxxing
(terrible joke)
its night for me lol
Same
its UTC+2 for Nikita and most of tB's
there is probably animations for jacob as a player
when prototype realese
in the files
so it's 18:12 for them then
UTC
since nikitas in the netherlands
bro you said it's utc+2 for nikita too
just confused
well think it like in eastern europe hour
Will someone have made RBO house on HN1 mods
the left one is concept art
not an actual in-game house
nikita lives in the netherlands
hilversum
its probably today or tommorow because the devlog and prototype is ready they are making final touches for steam page
i think
well most of tB is placed on eastern europe so
yeah
Yes
No 
Wdym, it clearly says Hello Neighbor 3 Devlog 2
How many main houses was there in RBO?
1
we dont know
there was players house/base too
It was just 1 house
This house?
ofc
Which house is this from pre alpha or prototype?
prototype
lowkey miss time when i was playing rbo with my bro
also this house wouldn't be in rbo fg
cuz you just build your house in prototype concepts
So this video is claiming that is house is the one from RBO pre alpha but textured
there wouldn't be a intruder or protector if rbo would finished you both intruder and protector
So this video is claiming that is house is the one from RBO pre alpha but textured
im unc now lol
i want devlog im so sad
saaaame
Questions is tho which house from RBO is it?
stop spam

Yes it's a continuation of the RBO concept
So these are the same houses?
Somewhat yes
Basically yes
you just keep saying same things
stop it
yeah
basically spam
Cause I’m Tryna get an understanding as I haven’t really been focusing on HN recently so this whole switching from RBO to HN3 is very confusing sorry everyone I just want to understand it that’s all
and hn3 was announced in 2018
Interesting
the first devlog is from 2018

So technically we can class RBO’s house as the first draft of the devs house
devlog 1.5 is from 2019
wdym devs house
devlog 2 2027
6 years later we get devlog 2
This house
No it wasn't
no
bruh the realese gonna be this week be calm
jk
I thought u said they have no plans for that house but maybe in future
if the RBO concept had not been cancelled, a playtest could have been organised with that house in it
but for now they dont have plans for this house
so technically we’ve got to play it why it was under RBO but with the rebrand to HN3 they have no future plans for it?
yep
This concept was abandoned in favor of what is now known as "HN3"
Fair enough
So if I built the house from RBO in my Minecraft world would I class it as RBO or an early house for HN3 as RBO is technically HN3
RBO
No problem I just find it weird they have the house from RBO textured in screenshots for HN3 but don’t plan on using it oh well I’m not the devs
its just for promote
Yeah
Well simply because they don't have replacements yet
Fair
and was rushed
Hopefully they put time into it use it in the future
I miss the crazy houses of HN1 that would be cool to bring back
Well don't think that is the plan for HN3 but there could be some weird buildings
i dont think they realese today probably tomorrow or friday
what about thursday
Yeah HN2 was more realistic then hn1 I wonder if that’s the direction they go in
oh yeah it can be too
well its still can released today
The past devlog came out at 5pm exactly and nikita announced it before im starting to doubt
for me devlog 1 came out at 12 am
sooooo
maybe wait till midnight
timezones
So for proto type 1 we will have a gas station?
its 5pm nikitas time and mine
cuz they cant release devlog 2 this hour cuz there was a Deadside trailer
ooooh
maybe next hour we'll see it
and 2 games cant be posted at the same time
Alright thanks for telling
maaaaan i feel like talking about deadside now
They changed it again?
Yes
what
changes after changes...
maybe it might be today
cuz before devlog 1 they also started making changes
a LOT of them
Different icon was changed
Chill it's just an icon change, nothing major
not before devlog 1, same time with devlog 1
cuz they basically recrated the page
oh yeah
its a diff one I think
like a lower resolution version
same but its a jpg
its def today or tomorrow🔥
You should expand it
Maybe it's better Icon idk
and not an auto steam change its a spesific hn3 change
I thinkIs this rbo or hn3s page
hn3
can you give link fr steam db page?
but if you changed something at main page, its also affects the demo page
didnt the main screenshot on steamdb was the rbo screenshot
yep
they changed it
so it changed
new icon
I meant these
yeah but the icon is hn3
I dont think it is?
theres no updates in the history that change it to hn3
icon on steamdb changed
again?
Playtest has not changed to HN3 apart from the name
if you change a icon in main page
it also affects the demo page
last time it was changed for playtest
now for main page on steamdb
this seems like its barely linked to anything devlog-related
as i understand
tbh
theres 3 private changes too
where we can see it?
we can just see change numbers
and not a auto steam change though
oh okay i understand
there might be changes on hn3 playtest private branch
cuz it cant be tracked, thus we cant even see changenumbers
Idk weather to class the house from RBO as RBO or an early prototype of HN3
whar
its probably big changes
What imma make on Minecraft
Told you RBO 
#1162248465330487366 If you want to write about Minecraft stuff, this is actually a thing
Oh wow
devlog 1.5 released at 4pm UTC
or 10 minutes or tomorrow
as they started to change things
its cuz of alex
cuz pf what
it was right after AS season 2 finale
was there a premiere btw? for devlog 1.5
no
good to know
but in some reason devlog 1 had premier
so hn3 spoiler before s2 end
check #announcements frame by frame
it was ??? Thing
and they just leaked its hn3 LOL
better check tB youtube page frame by frame xdx
cuz discord
oh yeah
actually dont
cuz might not release today
a higher chance it releases tomorrow 5pm UTC
or 4pm UTC
no, in devlog 1.5, we accidentally saw Nikita write something on the announcements 2-3 minutes before it was published
in 9 minute or tommorow
not write something its like
grandeturisto typing.....
yeah but it came with AS episodes
was getting ready to send the message probably
yeah
So there a chance we get a new dev log in 6 mins and the prototype
imagine if nikita just said "devlog in 30 minutes"
and theres also a chance it comes tomorrow
lol that would be so funny am i right
Yeah
it can be really good
devlog 1.5 came out 54 mins ago from now I think
nikita is not online
yep
maybe its not today guys
kinda is
He is just idle
hes idling
means he just off his computer rn
isnt nikita always in idle
he wasnt online like a second ago btw
well the yellow thing is means afk or something
no
could've set that manually just
or smth else
yeah but not offline just not making inputs on the computer
nope
also we dont even know if nikita posts the builds himself
he has to get approval from tb
its mike
yes
mike uploads builds to steams
yes
who's mike?
someone have a page opened for steamdb hn3 playtest?
what are you on @untold grotto
lead of franchise
bro's fighting his second personality
its likely not happening lol
ok now this is something i gotta explain to yall
do not be delving into this expecting tons of lore
this is a prototype not an alpha
bro we understand
synth calm down it might not release rn lol
😭
reiterated it because a lot of people in the community still think its gonna be an alpha
schizophrenia
...but its a high chance
just pinged and thought it was from #announcements
lol
probably not rn but im placing my bets on any day before saturday
Hello neighbor
Did HN2 have an alpha 2?
no
hello
It is?
they have a unreleased alpha 2 that was never given out ppublicly
but
its a walking sim like hn3 prototype 1
the setting of the devlogs make me love them even more
Watching thr 1.5 dev log there and Nikita said he stepped down from HN2 during alpha 2 period
yep
Maybe why it never got released to the public? EGS probs scrapped the alpha 2
i was prob the most patient guy for the devlog 2 but now I am impatient 
its not today but its tomorrow
its a unfinished walking sim
same
getting impatient
slowly
if it dont release tomorrow i will
also most of things from alpha 2 reused in beta
Yea
send lemons to tinyBuild
Fair
because it evolved into the beta
not today
youre the one who was hyping it up xdx
no i was saying to level expectations
because people are going to go 'WTH WHERES THE LORE??'
Yeah
where devlog @grandeturist⭕
where prototype @mikerafiienk⭕
I think they're literally just preparing for it's release. Nothing more
So guess it’s not today then
its probably going to be 3pm est
Welp
historically
im really hoping its not today
itd be great to have a concrete release date once everything is completely ready
its 3pm est
lol
heheheh
I don’t want them to set a date brah
I just hope they release it when their able too
i have been f5'ing for the past like 10 minutes
Why are you british
Is that good?
also grandeturisto just went offline and online
im talking to neighbor bot
discord restart smh
i sometimes wonder how nikita got the name grandeturisto
where is devlog 
dude i cant even steamdb now
Good or bad?
yall are stressing about this
how rude of them
as i just said
well hes a tourist
its probably going to be 3pm est IF its today
calm down lmao it doesnt mean anything
it's usually 3pm est
How do u know?
kryptqn be careful to not get rate limited on steamdb like me if you plan to check some time today lmao
Obviously. Online = working
prototype is not today i can feel
What if they went online to idk have a cup of tea 😂
on discord?
you talking to me
Why do they go online discord if they making a game
for communication
No bro
how fast people can change their feelings...
give it 2 or 3 hours
Ohhh between each other
Cuz its their way of communication
That makes sense
if its not out by then, it's probably not today
Yeah fair enough
that's the most likely release hour
yes im a feeler (lie)
lies of p
average impatient hn3 guy:
wah wah wah waaaah waaaah where is hn3 full release
EGS and tB in general work from home, so they use discord for communication
tB got an office
That’s interesting
i think
howd u know
Are they Russian?
no
they work from home
Fair enough
for now there less russians than before
egs is in hilversum
what kinda question is that
well they looking for employees works from HOME
their current employees works from HOME
fair enough, i dont monitor those
@untold grotto go apply for them and tell us the secrets
nda
True
true
bros gonna get sued within 3 nanoseconds
me when nda: 😔
and also get in jail probs
I know some employees of game company’s don’t care and they go rouge
dont think so
depends on the nda itself
like the guy who leaked patch 10
yeah...
Yeah 😂😂
||because some ex tB people were not even sued despite violating the NDA||
Or the guy who leaked an entire Fortnite season 😂
because leaking 1 or 2 things is bad but not worth it
if you leak company secrets you are 100% getting sued
Fr
yea
So no hn3 today
Fair well imma go I might just leave the RBO house and not build it and just build whatever structures will be in prototype
if it's not out by then
then it probably isn't today
usually they're out by then
There will be structures in prototype 1 ye?
yep
A gas station and what else
me when grandeturisto
(im slowly going insane)
signed's base (?)
iris's house (?)
an house that we dont know what is this
also yep gas station
So 4 structures to be expected in HN3 prototype 1 with all AI’s?
bro how are we supposed to know
??? why u asking this
not 4
Maybe 1 or 2?
at the moment i thought abt one rule
Are they hostile or friendly?
Stop
Or is it unknown atm
Don't expect to see Peterson himself yet since he hasn't been modelled
bruh isnt jacob main character?
Depends on how you behave
No
Yeah I’m not
oh
(because only these three have been modeled and there are no character modelers at the moment)
he was
they use his playermodel since he USED to be the player character
but not now
but as far as i'm aware, he isn't the player character
how are they doing game without full team?
Ohhh so if you behave good the NPC’s are friendly but if ur not they become hostile?
Mostly
Interesting
any idea as to when the next playable demo of RBO/HN3 will release?
the character modeller "left" 🙂
this week
There's other people
they're not character modeller though
ooo cool
kind of disingenuous to andi
is there any info yet to if it will be just a limited time demo like the last one, or will it be open for a while like old hello neighbor betas
Signed base
Iris house
Gas station
Unknown other structure
Iris
Jacob
Signed
simple prototype
under pre alpha
yaroslav and andis do modelling
Any idea what these structures look like? Is there any screenshots that’s been released
Only got the gastation I think
Looks interesting
arent his name is andis
idk but the main character modeller was elena
Who’s that
Jacob
yep
Jacob
He looks cool
elena is not at EGS anymore
ik
you hardly think theyre using magic to summon models
I really like how the NPC’s aren’t just gonna be hostile they can be friendly too
this is why they dont do character models
huh
rbo playtest got taken away from my steam library
it doesnt show i own it in steamdb anymore
did you have it installed
i participated in the playtest
now or a long time ago?
no
.
it removes itself from your steam library if you delete it
i deleted it a long time ago after the playtest closed
lol
it didnt do that for me?

it stays in my library
i played rbo but when i deleted it it disappeared
thats what its meant to do I think
strange
no its not coming today
i think its tommorow,today they're preparing for it
huh??????
Is the house from HN animated series lore
yeah rbo playtest got renamed to hn3 playtest
When did that happen
dude I KNOW
its not about that
can you read
sorry?
Is it cause ir says owned
still very cool concept game tho
In the gameplay clips I’ve seen
I’ve seen the signed people wondering around this house
Does that mean this is the signed base?
Yeah
I wonder if they keep it as signed base in the prototype then or make a new structure
as far as i know they said it is not being used
again some numbers changed
but its not a final decision
This particular house is not currently being used in HN3.
ChangeNumber – 27659559 › 27661178
Fair probably make a new structure from scratch for signed base then if this house isn’t being used
i doubt signed's base will be a massive semi-mansion
It is a cool house, so hopefully they find a place for it eventually.
Yeah just abit confusing as it’s what seen in the dev gameplay with sign in it
That’s because all the gameplay is from RBO, not Hello Neighbor 3. We have not seen any gameplay from HN3 yet.
well in RBO
there were multible signed's
to fill up the house
not just one guy
Yea
but nikita said that there will "be no 'Character types' for sure" so theres only gonna be 1 signed 1 covered and 1 coned
So this gameplay then is it to showcase HN3 or what RBO could’ve been?
its an unreleased build of RBO
So technically has nothing to do with HN3
kinda
a lot of the asset will be in hn3 proto
and i think the map is pretty much the same as in hn3 proto
but everything will change
Only reason I ask all these questions is because I build all hello neighbor stuff in Minecraft from HN1 pre alpha to HN2 full game including HNSR HND and SR so I was wondering if I built this house what title would I put it under HN3 Dev early gameplay house or as I’m not building anything from RBO leave the house out of my world?
prolly leave it out for now since there are no plans for the house to be used at the moment
Ok thank you
If we see it in the prototype tomorrow or whenever it releases I could include it then
there is a chance i could be in future builds but its not in the proto im pretty sure
But I know the GAS station will be there Iris house which idk what it looks like and signs base and some unknown structure is what I’ve heard?
So I’ll definitely be building them 4
Yeah
damn im excited for hn3 proto
So am I bro I can’t wait to build it on my world
This is where imma build it behind HN1 and HN2
they still changing things
yeah we see
This map is totally different and will not be in HN3, but all the assets are being repurposed for HN3.
HUH
again?
ye
nah
oh sure
last time was 30 minutes ago
tghanks
The devlog wont be posted at the same time as devlog 1.5
Idk why I keep expecting that
I imagine it will be by April.
bro too late for memes
they're doin smthing
we were wrong
Check #1162248465330487366 I posted in there
What is hn3
honking nightmare 3
What is it about
its abt a person that finds themselves in a nightmare in ravenb rooks and has to escape a guy with a smile on their face
its quite interseting
I first I though it was hello neighbor 3
Intriguing
Hn3 is about a person who recently went into raven brooks (which is half abandoned). The characters are controlled by paramaters and systems every one is unique

yeah you should check out honking nightmare 1 and 2 as well
Will do heh
"Arriving in Raven Brooks as a stranger with no ties to this place, you find yourself in a forgotten, half-abandoned town where every citizen has relations, desires, and goals. Your actions will ripple through the town, changing the course of events…" - Official steam description
Hm alright
Whens the next devlog planned to arrive
this week
Get yo ahh back in the speedrunning server
or do you mean after this one?
Nah this one
this week then
Yall think devlog 2 will drop tomorrow?
kinda
come on plz be tommorow
Begs
That’s actually insanely cool. Awesome work man
Wait I feel like I know this game
devlog 2 tomorrow
Hopefully...
how much
$10
lol
I'm betting by friday
I’m betting it will release…
I’m betting people will be underwhelmed after hyping themselves up for around two months over the first iteration of a prototype, despite being repeatedly reminded that this is y’know… the earliest, most barebones, version of the game?
If it’s a walking simulator that looks like this, I’m for sure going to be hyped for it.
But I understand your point:)
Hopefully it runs well! 
Yeah.
They probably will be underwhelmed. A lot of people in this chat seem to really not understand what a prototype is. it's not for lore, and the AI will be very simple. A prototype is just to test things. And I'm excited to try and test it. But people need to realize this isn't even pre alpha, there's no actual game yet. So keep expectations low.
Glad we’re on the same page!
I do wonder when the game will transition into being a pre-alpha.
Maybe prototype #2 (which I believe is still a WIP, judging by Nikita’s messages in this channel) will become “ambitious” enough to warrant the name “pre-alpha”, kind of (but not really
) like how HN: Hide & Seek, HN: Nicky’s Diaries and Super Mario Galaxy 2 ended up becoming their own games?
¯_(ツ)_/¯
Hello guest prototype.
That was a prototype too
Do you have any idea how fun it was?
Ngl I don’t even care about the prototype I just want to see the full neighbor design
What do yall think the gameplay is gonna be like in the prototype? really can't tell anything tbh
Nikita did say that the prototype will last roughly 2 hours to learn it
something like that
100% right all the way.
Tons of people have been treating like it’s even an alpha, it’s nowhere near that level.
I think people just get overhyped over anything
I think the teason why he said walking simulator
Cuz we will be exploring alot
For important items
To solve the missing puzzles
i doubt that
its just a prototype you can probably go up to signed and throw a box at him or something then hell roll about like a loser
I never once said the hello neighbor 3 prototype can't be fun. I'm just saying don't expect too much from it because it's a prototype.
An example being when people were going crazy over trash bags in HN2, to this day I’ll never understand what was so awesome about it.
Like don’t get me wrong I was hyped up too, but then looking back at it feels like the most absurd thing to be so hyped up for.
Because we wanted the game to improve or be expanded on in anyway possible no matter how small it was after that launch
That’s very true, but still just think about how funny it is looking back at how the most exciting thing ever was trash bags.
Fair enough
I think the main point I’m trying to get across is that while yes the prototype could very well be fun and enjoyable for some people, it shouldn’t be treated like something greatly worked on, it’s just a prototype it’s not going to have a lot of polished gameplay and is going to be very rough to play.
Now to waiiiit….
Imagine the peeking mechanic makes a comeback
yep.
(too many grass rendering and leaves rendering with shadows on)
wait is that gaap in the background?
What if Hello Neighbor 3 got a sponsor from a fast food restaurant to put it in the game as a food source?
I mean, they referenced the smeg fridges with the old fridge model before if I remember correctly.
Well I meant like KFC or something.
Yeah never noticed?
didnt notice it
Hope it stays
gasps in stupid why yes, I believe it is
What’s new
game features real world time with >Gmt<?
also real time events happen
Hey Nikita, is this game coded in blueprints or C++?
I think both
When is it releasing
2027
I mean the prototype
same time as devlog
you reckon?
So Is it coming out
so many number changes
thats the first one today
devlog possibly today?
quite possibly
Most likely today
I hope so
devlog should be before weekends
surprise drops are possible
everything is ready
If it’s not today I expect they might be holding it back for Friday or weekend but I hope not
they wont hold it out for weekends
I just want it to release as soon as they’re able too tbh
it might be friday
but i dont see why they would be waiting that long cuz its apparently ready
they can release rn actually
EVERYTHING'S ready
we apparently have to wait until 4-6pm UTC
The devlog and prototype is ready
o
Probably because the prototype is getting ready to release soon they added family sharing
I imagine
same thing happened yesterday
they were updating the steam page
some of the updates r hidden due to how steam api handles that stuff tho
it MUST be before the weekends
thats unfortunate
otherwise nikita blueballed us :(
what week day did devlog 1 & 1.5 release?
tuesday devlog 1,5 sunday devlog 1
hmm
Tuesday was when it released
Family Sharing? What does that even mean?
but we cant really just estimate based on dates
Ill share my hn3 Prototype with my bro no Problem
its not the hn3 playtest app btw
hn3 playtest app has no updates whatsoever
its the main hn3 app that's getting updates
*it is, but we cant see it on steamdb at all cuz of a hidden branch, unfortunate
probs cuz everything applying to the main game happens for the prototype too?
maybe?
Well yeah probably
perhaps
yeah 100%
and plus
you cant have store pages for playtests
which is why its still rbo for playtest
yeah it kinda pops up on the main page like
"hey yk this game is out in playtest apply now"
yeah, just no preview or anything
its not tho, they renamed it
not fully, but they did
just an apply form
they're probably gonna need to do that soon
im talking about the images
not the name
cuz thats still clearly rbo
yeah i was too sry i phrased it poorly
boy do i love getting rate limited
hamburger
Yummy
true
cant miss it
is there a way to not constantly f5 on steamdb to get updates?
cuz ima get rate limited soon
nope...
but
stop refreshing
wait a while
what if i miss it
man do I love that time when I get so excited about a game i constantly track steamdb until i see something
same
Probably still changing some things on the steam Page. Thats my guess
nothing yet
the preperations in question:
moving private branch to public, which takes 1 minute
if anything appears ill post it here literally the same second
Theres probably more to that then just „Release“
Well tb has to post the devlog on their channel
which will probs take a few mins
its prob posted already, they just have to make it public
Nikita also said something about everyone needing to be in synch for it to release.
they have to make the playtest available, move the private test branch to public, then idk publish the devlog
unless steam complains
Oh its wednesday
Sounds simple on paper maybe
lord gaben wouldnt do such a tragedy
yeah
family sharing added
hey pookie kryptqn
we've seen
i posted it the same second it was added on steamdb
xdx
also an private change too
pookie? 😳
yep
lots of changes
gearing up for release
at this point ima write a python script that tracks activity on hn3
When the prototype comes out I'll also create an archive just in case
devlog is also ready
and upload it to the internet archive
Yes but we just need to wait for the devlog first
theres nothing going on with publishing the prototype
i guess
do it and release the client publicly
wait why family sharing is being added before prototype
@untold grotto dink donk
hello mike
its so happening yall
Prototype
That’s rough that
hey its apparently gonna be out
When it out
in a bit
YESSSS!!!!!!!
When in a bit
we're so back
thank you grandeturisto
aka Neekeeetaaah Colessneecauv
my bad
nikita kolesnikov, mike my beloved 🔥
or someone from tB but not nikita
thank you Maaaik Raaaaghfeenko
If theyre doing it as a playtest again does it mean itll be limited time?
def not gonna uninstall it this time
maybe yes, maybe not
nikita said we dont have plans about limited time
Lets gooooo
also hn2 beta also named hn2 playtest so
yeah but it was somewhat paid
you got it for pre ordering
But yeah if nikita said it then all good
im so excited
even if they had plans for limited time they cant stop you from launching up the exe
maybe limited player
idk why but i dont have this changes
cuz its on hn3 playtest
look at hn3 playtest page
oh okay
ex named rbo playtest
its happening chat, its real
Does this mean its gonna happen today hello nebars
Maybe I hope so but i think it’s likely
it does mean that it is coming very soon
will come today?
it hink
they didnt move the test branch into public, its just metadata for now
strange
i think its today
i hope
they said they trying to realese soon as they can
Could be today then
devlog and prototype ready
and i cant find this
look in hn3 playtest
ik
look at playtest page
not hn3
not main page
kryptqn can you?
i was able to before
