@ripe cliff
Turn back into kid form when you are on top.of the chimney
And spam E
Tell me when ready
You did?
what is wrong with secret neighbor randomly making me missing while neighbor is not nearby
bug
guys, how can i get Lucy's bracelet trophey? I watched the tutorial, and when I tried to repeat that, there was no hole to throw a key, and ghost cant go through the wall.
this skin isnt as bad as i first thought
@round prairie Watch out your language!!
Eu sei, e está quebrando diretamente a regra 1
Este tipo de linguagem não é tolerado aq
Throw it through the cabinet shelf thing
Ghost can get through, you just need to find the right spot
its really weird that it keeps happening
thats the meaning of bug lol
thx
let's go to brawl mode?

is Lucy's bracelet still obtainable?
yes
the wall is a bit weird
you need to look around to get through the wall
no problem
where would you usually find the heart key?
it spawns randomly
dang
it has the same physics as a key i will spawn everywhere
in a closet on a shelve anywhere
just gotta look around
i can help if you want
I have been looking for a while now and I can't find it
I found the key how do I get it into the room?
through the wood shelve
do you still need help
What is your platform?
We tested Steam, Xbox and Ms Store, everything seems to be normal, if you have any problems with the servers please ping us
iOS also works fine
secret neighbor brave real
I feel bad for the neighbor lol
the neighbor won because he had the brain power to understand that attacking people in groups isn't a good idea
Daaaaaang
Smart play 😂
You can get it on steam, console, and ios
Downloads here
tem alguem br aqui
What do the levers do btw?
türk varmı lan
Please use english and no spam
Bruh
Idk, I'm Russian and secret neighbor blocked for me in Steam
Because blocked country
But why
He is swearing in that language
what no they arent
Sup
@spark ledge i have a hunch that this isnt you
This will be a secret neighbor map for sure if secret neighbor works for me to play. This thumbnail dosen't have blood it is ink the map is called Hello Neighbor Bendy so basiclly the neighbors house is changing to a bendy house to talking t cleary the neighbors is getting rotten and old there is a basement still a ton of secrets and more things im planning these things in a fan art this is just thumbnail not an art it will be in game soon.
When is the roblox edition coming out?
Hello Neighbor 2? Im not the owner and i don't know when it comes out but there are other hello neighbor robloxs games.
I have a question
Will iOS secret neighbor get an update. I am a pc user but just curious
Hello
maybe it got cancelled, or they are working on porting it.
The Random Kid has 4 tickets on purpose i think
considering it's
- randomization
- 3 matches
Cus it's not on gamepass anymore
I hate this game now
W
oh wow
I’m glad I switched to pc
lol penalty rounds are a pain for some reason even if matching will only take just another minute
There are plenty of people. 3-5 minutes or less is the average time for a quick game. Two hours is bogus unless of course you are playing at a strange time everyone is asleep at. Still, it wouldn't take hours. The better question is, why would you stay in the lobby for two hours just to get in a match?
I was exaggerating I was waiting for like 30 mins
But im fine now
Wait nvm
There's a reason it was removed from Game Pass. Stuff like that doesn't just happen un-noticeably. Games getting removed from Game Pass can only mean two things. 1. Holo and Tiny decided to remove it from Game Pass because they have big plans for it. And 2. The contract that was signed 3 years ago has finally expired. It's up to Holo, Tiny, and Xbox if it is to be renewed. Xbox games can go back on Game Pass without notice, so don't be surprised. But also don't be surprised if it doesn't, they might have big plans for it coming soon, plans they don't need Xbox or Microsoft for, and this isn't a bad thing.
30 minutes is still forever to be waiting in a lobby so I don't believe you at all, but okay, whatever.
Ok well that’s not the point
All I’m saying is that it takes quite a while to load into a game
On Xbox
In my opinion
Okay. I get it. But going from 5-10 minutes to 2 hours isn't a little exaggeration, so I'm sure you can see why I'm confused. Anyway, my point was, Xbox is still pretty populated, and nothing will change my mind since it is my only platform, to which I play very often on. So, for the future, just keep in mind, if you're trying to make sense, you could just say you've been waiting for 7 minutes to get into a game instead of 2 hours. 🙂👍
Bruh 💀
You'll be surprised on how long people wait for this game
Does it really matter
No
then dont leave the game.
i understand having penalty on pc because of hackers, but on any other platform?
Yes. All I'm saying is, in the future, if they are really trying to make a point or make any sense, then there is no point in over-exaggeration. Is that so hard to understand?
How can someone wait 30 minutes in a QG if it doesn't even take that long to get in one?
Not everyone has the ability to critically think, plus it's kind of obvious what they meant, you don't need specifics all the time
Again, it doesn't even matter how long it takes or how long they waited for, they're just telling you how long it may feel like to get into a game.
This is like the dumbest thing I've ever seen in this chat
Not saying you're dumb, I just don't know why we need the exact time someone waited
Game could've crashed
Critically think? Seriously? It was not obvious to me because I genuinely thought they meant it took that long to get into a game for them, they never said it "felt" that long or that they were exaggerating until later on. Your interference in the conversation between us is very unnecessary especially since I'm sure they can speak for themself. I wasn't being mean, I was asking logical questions to get answers for myself. It may be sound dumb to you, but only because you don't understand why I'm asking at all. I was trying to inform them not to over-exaggerate if they are trying to make any sense, not harass them. I had questions, am I allowed to ask them without being ganged up on? I don't need specifics for everything, but I like to clear up big questions people have and questions I have, and asking real questions is the best way I can do it.
Fair
Is it just me or has Secret Neighbor become visually ugly
I feel like that the more realistic looking nature assets and lighting just don't fit with the cartoony assets
Also I don't remember you, sorry
That's a good thing
And probably because I left because I left constantly, and I was formerly banned
Yeah it kinda throws it off but doesn't bother me much
I think I remember you if you're the person who I think you are
Who
Does your real life second name start with the letter M?
To be more precise, is your name Mason?
If it is then I remember you
No far from it lmao
Ik who you are referring to
I was banned permanently for seemingly no reason, a reason that deserved just a simple warning
And I was unbanned before the unban wave happened
An unban wave?
Yeah I'm pretty sure
People like the week games was unbanned
even if they deserved it
I'm going to be honest I am completely clueless about what you're talking about, I haven't been hanging around the HN community as much as I used to
Same honestly
Mainly cuz HN games are kinda bad
If only there was a cursed secret neighbor version
Oooo
If I learn animation is blender that is the first render I will make
Lmao
Yeah I need someone to do it
The secret neighbor model neighbor getting into his car as the explosion happens behind him
With y'roue at the top
hn2 version would be better (i don't like how sn neighbor looks like)
I think the game detects crashes and doesn’t give you a penalty
But idk I haven’t played console version in like 2 years
Probably left some matches due to teamers or annoying people
what's not to appreciate about those giant hands tho...
if it crashes on any other platform than pc it won't give you penalty.
I think it might also look cool if it was one of the sn kids getting in the car. Maybe scout with the sun glasses
He doesn't like the rig
Oh
I keep getting random friend requests from that same dude again
Who
Oh wait
Nvrm
Yeah just block him
whenever they dm me i just troll them lol
I'd just turn server friend requests off
It's kinda dumb I have to do that but yes
Hey, guys! Real quick question, what do you think about halloween 2020 update?
booyah
i thought it was pretty decent, i know the lighting is controversial among SN players but the change in atmosphere made the game feel very fresh, and butcher obv is awesome
I've seen this controversial thing too. I was just asking this cause I was comparing the game we have now to the old one
Cause idk, this new lightning seems a bit off
i think the halloween 2020 lighting felt more polished, idk nowadays even with max graphics the game looks kinda amateurish
I know, it looks really odd
I also didn't like the new collision, the one we got on map 5 release
you can climb up practically anything now lol
reminds me of when the game didn't have sliding physics at all, i'm pretty sure back in the days of the first pre alpha youtubers figured out how to just... climb the collision on the fence and chill in the sky
I thought it had been fixed
this is such a goofy screenshot and i love it
imagine my surprise when i see someone climbing up the little pole by the level 2 area in map 5 again
nah the physics still kinda suck, there's some things that have the proper sliding mechanic but a lot of them don't
Oh no...
I tried to do that skip a couple of time but it didn't work :/
Nowadays I barely play the game anymore due to map 5
i do that every time i play map 5 since i'm fairly sure the level 1 area doesn't spawn any keys 99% of the time
it's harder to pull off but I've seen others, and myself doing that.
Yeah level 1 doesn't...it just feels like filler
Hm. if only map 5 had more things to use keycards for, or perhaps a bigger level 1 area.
Just to make sure I didn't say it wrong, I don't blame who plays it
map 5 is sort of a fundamentally flawed map tbh
Yeah, it doesn't
nothing wrong if you enjoy it, but i think its design is the worst of them all
Map 5 was the most let down i've been.
I know, everything is just too big and it just doesn't work
I loved the lobby music then
Same
tied best music with normal sn lobby music imo
A wide open map set in the park? How could you go wrong? Oh wait...plenty of skips (some still in the game) and for as big as it is, it's INCREDIBLY linear
I also miss the normal sn music
i was mixed on it at the time, but after halloween 2021's theme i learned to appreciate the 2020 one a hell of a lot more
I actually enjoy the skips cause it helps me to win faster on that map. At least they used to work back then
still sucks that it was nerfed from the trailer version tho, that guitar absolutely slapped
i think the level 4 skip may be the worst one perhaps.
The one we climb the tent?
yeah
Btw, I believe map 5 is the only map which don't have any gates
no, there is one in the level 3 area
but since there's a window right next to it, there's literally no value
I mean a gate for the neighbor
Oh, I see what you mean
There's actually a gate lol
But it's useless
Yeah. There's literally a window by it, what's the point. Atmosphere for the haunted house ride?
Spooky
Yeah. Also, map 5 really needs a rework
I agree immensely.
surprisingly, that is a very uncontroversial take
most would agree on that
I know
It added like some of the most annoying things in the game
While the vending machines and shovel i can enjoy, i simply cannot enjoy the map's structure AND the lucy event
lucy event was such a drag to figure out
Vending machines should also be on other maps
the ending isn't even that hype either
Yeah, just move somethings from map 5 onto other maps...
While we're at it, add some teleporters to map 5
the neighbor room is simply too big.
would be cool if we got the teleporters in the same spots the level up generators were placed on map 1 actually
That would help a ton. Although the neighbor is really op on map 5
i suggest the teleporters so the neighbor room could become smaller, perhaps to allow for a level 1 area of sorts.
tfw competent butcher on map 5
It would be cool if we have also the teleporters in level editor
anything to make the map non linear
Btw, the map feels empty
There are a lot of places where items could be places
This would also help
you know, if the gaap was a real place it would be the worst amusement park ever
there's hardly any attractions
add minigames that have prizes or something...its' probably a meh addition but who wouldn't want to play a target game as scout and get rewarded with perhaps a candy bar
There' a tent, spooky ride, a small house and some shooting game?
🤩
This is actually a cool idea
heck! You could make it so you'd earn the camera and dolls for the lucy event this way!
also a rollercoaster that takes up 90% of the park's airspace, and some abandoned buildings that were probably entirely for selling products 💀
But first I'd reccomend they fix the main issues the game has
Yeah, rework first, then additions
I mean, all maps could be reworked in some kind of way
They should add an actual physical roller coaster that touches the ground and makes sense and has its own area imo
Mph, yeah.
Something I really wished would happen is keys being able to spawn anywhere in the house since it was this way on the alphas and beta.
mostly on the decorative side of things, map 1 and 2 have solid layouts but a lot of the rooms look really bland
I know it would kinda ruin the purpose of keycards but would allow for a better game experience
if they were worried about the matches ending too early, they could just lower the chance of keys spawning on the lower floors. but it's never zero\
they could also slow down player movement speed and lower the jump height so the maps take longer to generally traverse across
Also, keycards also make the gameplay always the same
and make the opening of drawers and cabinets and whatnot slower so you spend more time in rooms
MouseFlash remade map 1 and it is opposite of bland. Honestly holo should take inspiration from fan made maps
I tested this map
Perhaps certain keycard doors could be replaced with boarded up doors. so you'll have to look for another route
It was reallt good
Yeah
Would be better
oh yeah absolutely solid decoration, i don't like playing it tho cuz of set keycard spawns
obviously not his fault tho
Yeah
Honestly, for me, since keycards were added
Brick walls were much better
it prevents the player from having a strict layout to go throuhg
i think if you paired the randomization with slower paced gameplay and patched skips, SN matches would flow a lot nicer
Which makes gameplay random
level editor shows that it wouldnt be good.
oh and the hopefully muffled sound that will come with the improved sound system, if it's anything BUT that i will be very sad
wouldnt*
And if the game play is random, then replayablity goes up...and what do you get with replayablity?
MORE PLAYERS.
You mean brick walls?
Yup
yeah though i think there could be more done in the randomization department than just that
i meant that it wouldnt be good
fun fact: when the level up generators were first being conceptualized, the abilities you would gain from them would be entirely random each match
this was before neighbor classes were invented obv
What I want more than muffled sounds is cabinets opening and closing being a lot quieter unless you are really close by... not only can you just obviously hear someone enter a closet but you can tell where they are when they search drawers
I read it wrong
Le randomizarion still needs improvement. It's different from official maps
that sounds cool, they should maybe add that to custom game.
it makes the neighbor more unpredictable
They should add power tubs option to CG honestly
Really? So it must have been before halloween alpha. Since on that version we could mix items
Yes please
the kids apparently were also supposed to have upgrades throughout the match, i don't know if they're referring to the quest abilities team work and intuition and whatnot, but either way having both sides constantly upgrading would be cool
yep, here's the source https://youtu.be/HqhoRq5ratY
http://SecretNeighbor.com - sign-up for the eventual alpha!
Here's Alex talking about the latest and greatest on Secret Neighbor's development. Secret Neighbor is the Hello Neighbor multiplayer spin-off where 6 players try to sneak into their creepy Neighbor's basement. Only problem is that one of the players is a Neighbor in disguise.
this was before halloween alpha released
Oh, now I remembered it
The neighbor would have some tasks to do
So he wouldn't be a treat at the start of the match
it'd also incentivize blending in with the kids instead of going straight to fighting immediately
i think to balance that out the kids would have secondary objectives, however
Omg, I really miss how the game looked back then
So they wouldn't be that strong at the start too
"This video is unavailable"
the UI in the pre alphas honestly looked a lot nicer to me, it fits with the HN1 aesthetic a lot more
i'm able to watch it 🤷
but anyway here's the specific clip i'm talking about with randomized upgrades and kid upgrades
i'm imagining an alternate reality where there aren't any set classes and you earn all those abilities while you play and tbh, that sounds... a lot more fun
What happened after xmas alpha?
Have done that as well lol
It would
there's a developer commentary from early 2020 which shows an inbetween build of xmas alpha and easter alpha, it shows very primitive versions of brave and detective
alex also says that brave is a work in progress name which lol
Although Idk how the game would be kept alive by only releasing abilities for the kid and neighbor
But yeah, SN was supposted to be simpler
i mean they probably would still release more cosmetics and maps and gamemodes
i don't think the flow of SN content updates would change all that much
The would be the focus
Maybe if easter alpha was done right
I mean, on beta, it would be cool if we could still mix abilities
controversial take: neighbor classes and cosmetics for the neighbor were a mistake
Maybe each class could have abilities we could mix
For the most part, yes
now that we have 5 different classes with different cosmetics, true social deduction is somewhat impossible when playing with friends
there'll always be one guy you can instantly tell is the neighbor based off what class they're playing
Wasn't progression system on the current roadmap?
When the roadmap was announced this past Halloween
that was very vague though, and we don't know if that means things like rankings or in-match progression
Link?
give me a sec
Alr
Alex and Keith satdown to talk through the latest and greatest for Secret Neighbor. Alex recorded a few playsessions with the dev team (in Russian), and explains to Keith what the hell is going on. Follow Secret Neighbor on Steam - https://store.steampowered.com/app/859570/Secret_Neighbor/
here
Thx
these old dev updates honestly are really interesting to watch, they talk about a lot of fun ideas that were either very early concepts for things we see now, or stuff that we just have straight up never gotten
it's sad that most of it won't be the official standard due to all the stuff we have now, but hopefully we can get alternative game modes in the future that have these cut features
SN 2 is unlikelly, but would be a better option
and honestly i think the game should focus more on custom game anyway, quick game sorta sucks and i'd rather they entirely focus their efforts on the playing with friends experience
Yes
Idk... maybe just make the main game sn 2
Maps 3-5 removed
i think i'd be shot if i said that quick game should be removed so custom game can be the primary focus tho
Wdym map 3
skips galore! oh and also since it's pretty open you can see the neighbor from a good distance away when he isn't even aware of your existence, i don't think it's that big of a problem but i can see why people don't like it
Just patch the skips but the map itself is balanced... imo
i think there should be a few more rooms in map 3, particularly the level 2 area
Fair point
the skips definitely contribute to the problem a lot, but even still i feel like map 3 just doesn't have enough content in it? matches kinda breeze by
Pfft... want to talk about matches that breeze by...
map 4 lol
Look now further than map 4
Jinx, lol
i am well aware of map 4's pacing problems
They keep trying to nerf map 4 but its still so speedrunable
i found it kinda weird that they changed the level 3 area to a level 1 area for a bit and removed the keycard doors on the greenhouse, what was the point of that
Like the level 3 cage doors used to be level 1, and the greenhouse used to be open... they nerfed both yet still could not prevent the speedruns
Honestly what they need to do, for all maps even, is spread out key spawning
and the greenhouse still spawned rifles so you could get the rifle within less than a minute of the game starting 💀
You should not be able to get 3 keys in one room
Yes
I remebr that lmao
As bagger I found 2 keys and the rifle once at the greenhouse and took all of them
map 4 would be good if they just added more stuff to it
Bigger basement
the level 2 area being a grand total of 3 rooms is 💀
Level 3 is only 3 rooms too
yeah though you could count it as 4 due to the gate separating them most of the time
actually i think it's incredibly funny that you can get permanently softlocked if the neighbor traps you in a side of the level 3 area that doesn't have the keycard door opened
There should be a way out of there.
No, 3... without the gate separation its 2
Perhaps a lift or something
there's 2 rooms and a hallway that has a gate in the middle of it, its at the minimum 3
Inventor did that to me once lmao thankfully I was with someone that had a spare level 3 card though
and if we don't count hallways as rooms then map 1 would be incredibly small
like cmon bro how is this 2 rooms
Ooooh... your right your right
Its 2 sections though
yeah 2 sections, though that's besides the point
either way still incredibly small
also side discussion, didn't you say that you believe the lighting was changed with xmas 2022 because adam said it on a livestream? and i believe you said that was on map 4, which had a weather change between halloween and this update, but the actual lighting engine is the same
cuz i mean yeah the skybox is different and all but im pretty sure the other maps are exactly the same
and if that's what you meant then my fault for misunderstanding
Mhm!
Hmmm
Maybe it is just map 4 then?
Ik for sure, 100% positive Adam did say it on stream though
That they did tweak the lighting
Now for all maps I'm not sure
The mad eye yokai
map 4 and level editor afaik
map 1, 2, and 3 are the same and im not sure about map 5
maybe i can help?
SN hacker who spreads fake information about Hello Neighbor games
Sorry guys, I was hoping to the end that it wasn't a hacked account
Well, I accidently called him, I'm on cellphone so I miss clicked the buttons
and he blocked me
Yup, he said to me he was hacked
That's why we ask people to block and not open links, another lost account 
Yeah just a heads-up CC is doing this "hugs 🤗" thing now so beware if you see other people doing it.
Nowadays we always need to beware of these links so we don't get hacked
He won't stop messaging me with the hugs
It is annoying tbh
it probs is
Just disable friend requests and DMS
Morning, everyone!!
Morning
It wasn't this account
It was my other account I normally use often
Guys
You have a mission
Vote now. The future of SN depends on this. 😉
oh wow detective is getting a buff??
brave shoulf get a rework
a perfectly average SN screenshot
but anyway, i think detective deserves the rework since intuition is kind of a useless ability
oh yeah
has anyone notice like a lighting bug on map 5 in the level 2 area in the daytime lighting?
I'm surprised so far by the poll results
I thought Brave was going to win by a landslide
Leader's already in a pretty good spot imo so I left her out.
brave is always in some controversy
some people say she is too op some people say she is too bad

i would have voted leader if she was there tbh, right now i think she's a tad too OP for her own good
Interesting...not what I expected.
I personally have mixed feelings about Brave
make the bagger unlock the fifth slot
......
Ok so continuing what I was saying in #hello-neighbor
I think Detective needs like, some sort of self defense ability. Nothing too crazy but maybe something like he can use his cameras flash to temporarily blind the neighbor, allowing him to get away
They could just carry all of the keys. That would be terrifying to play against hahahaha
as a bagger main i agree and i support that idea
good idea
There's two types of people who play bagger
People who have no idea what they're doing and then the absolute gods at the game
damn 5 keys in one bag
That would be cool. I forgot he's got that old school polaroid which naturally had a flash built in irl.
depending on what spot you are on this specific kiosk the shadows would pop in & out
personally i think the stun resistance ability makes her a bit too hard to counter, a class that has such supportive utility shouldn't have built-in self sustain to prevent herself from being targeted imo
bagger is like the soldier from tf2
(i was on third person so you could have a better look)
5 keys it would be abused
unless the neighbor get the bagger and all keys drop
though perhaps that's an unpopular take
im exactly that one person
When you play Samuel, do you try to wear down the kids with hit or mainly just go for grabs?
also one thing i want in sn is for less items to spawn. because if you look at a random drawer in the house there are a million items on it, including a lot of glue
i think a nice rework would be to tie stun resistance with inspiration, so when she actually uses inspiration she would get that halved stun time
the game literally just started and everyone except one random kid went missing before the neighbor could even transform
oh and this happens too!
I think every kid class needs at least a tinyyy rework, even inventor I feel should be a little tweaked
i havent played sn for a month so wow awesome
depends on the class i'm playing, if i'm playing ghost or guest i'll usually go for grabs
but playing scary, clown, or butcher? i focus mainly on hits and knocking down players since they have the aggressive abilities or defensive utility to back it up
both to be honest
and obv with a longer cooldown so you couldnt just spam inspiration whenever the cooldown is done
My only problem with Inventor is that he can craft both the flashlight helmet AND the goggles for the exact same amount of gears which feels almost pointless
I think that's supposed to happen.
also whats with the headbobbing, i literally had to turn down my headbob intensity all the way down because i was getting so disorientated when jumping as neighbor
no because i technically got "caught"(i didnt but the game glitched and made everyone missing)
no i don't think people are supposed to randomly die without being grabbed or being knocked down
so i should be able to leave but im not
I guess it's just preference as to which you want to use but one gives you like 2 free hits and the light where the other just gives you night vision
Oh, I meant that menu screen
i found out thats a bug since sometimes your head bob sensitivity goes up to 100
it isnt supposed to happen, and i had that happen to me multiple times at the start of a game and i couldnt leave
the everyone missing before a transform is complete though is not supposed to happen.
night vision goggles hardly have any value tbh, the game's bright enough for the actual night vision part to not be much of a buff, and your field of view is overall decreased when wearing them
I see what you mean now.
goggles arent very good
since it basically does nothing
flashlight pan is overall the better option
the flashlight saucepan just completely beats the nvgs
highly agree
also the metal detector imo is pretty useless
They help with those dealing with slight colorblindness, like my friend Dr. Mork.
the night vision goggles should make you be able to see through clowns smoke
hmm it goes through walls tho
it's faster to just manually search drawers for gears, keycards, and keys
true
ah, that's understandable
though to me i don't get much use out of them, especially with the lighting changes with the most recent halloween update
they should add a colorblind setting
yeah the lighting is slightly brighter than what it was before
i feel like the metal detector would work so much better if it had like, a larger range and it didn't slow you down when you use it
spamming the jump button:
true
no like, specifically while jumping it feels like i have 100% headbob
ik sometimes when making snowballs it screws with your headbob until you make another snowball
That I can understand too. Though when it's pitch black like in map 3, it can be helpful. Once you're inside the house I tend to lose them.
yeah it does a little bounce regardless of your headbob, i believe it's intentional but i don't think it looks good
fairly distracting to me
cya
and thank you for voting
see you soon!
Seeya
also can anyone agree that the saucepan buff was dumb
well its not if the neighbor or you have a high ping
i've hardly ever had latency get me hooked
also the hook is just hard to aim imo, i cant tell if im close enough to a kid to hook them or im too close to a drawer or cabinet or closet (especially on map 2) to accidentally hook that instead
i think that's also the fault of the hook's direction being decided on frame 1 of pressing the button instead of when the hook leaves his hand
i cant say how much i have been caught with that thing
way too much and i blame latency for it
eh, regardless sauce pans are way too common for that to be a justified buff imo
i think butcher's hook should just be faster when being used and when pressing q to activate the hook it should only equip the hook like the beartrap and then you could decide to aim and throw your hook or save it for a better time
hmm wait does the butcher take your saucepan off?
if you can get an inventor to give you a flashlight pan and you have a hammer, you can practically keep that for the rest of the game
yea thats what i mean by abuse
also yeah saucepan blocks the first hook, after that it falls off and breaks i believe
it should also highlight the closest kid or anything that's interactable with the hook with red and if you're on something that can be interacted with the hook with your crosshair then it would highlight it with white
i think you can hold the hook by holding q
no it just automatically throws it
would be nice if they went the guest route and have hooking kids and hooking items be separate binds
that would be a nice change tbh
I feel like they should just have it so there's like, item tiers
Common items that are just like, nothing really useful
Uncommon items like hammers, glue jars, flashlights, etc.
Then have rare items like pots, and maybe even the nvgs
It's kinda how it is now but like
i'd just like more practical items tbh, power milk, candy bars and saucepans are getting boring
More balanced I guess
i think speedrunner bars, power milk, and saucepans should spawn less so its like a rare item
power milk provides way too much value for how common it is
if your team can coordinate with it you can shut down any neighbor within the span of a couple seconds
so when you do find one it isnt just "oh when i see the neighbor i can just use this to escape/kill him" it becomes a more of either a win when used at a perfect moment or a loss if used at a bad time
They should add the Invis soda at some point too
Maybe it wouldn't make you invisible but it could like, make you slightly transparent
That way you can hide easier
But are still findable
this would be so overpowered if used correctly
eh i dont like the idea of invis soda being an actual consumable but ig its cool
or it could give you some kind of temporary defensive buff, like you take no damage but still can get stunned
neighbor could use it to clutch survive a rifle shot, or you could survive longer in a clown's smoke bomb and save your other teammates
but it wouldn't have the same value as a saucepan does in chase since you still get stunned
the neighbor watching in horror as the bagger with a powermilk and 3 invis-sodas starts walking towards him
if bagger has 4 slots and one milk the neighbor is basically dead
you can entirely avoid that situation with ghost and guest tho...
true
the bagger screaming in agony as the guest uses scaring croak and steals all of his invis-sodas
I forgot those are the only 2 neighbor classes anybody use anymore lol
reminds me of one time in map 2 i was playing against a butcher and he was camping in the basement, i think i was playing inventor at the time because i was running around looking for gears, and he just decided to quit the match
aight guys im gonna go sleep see yall tomorrow
i had the last 2 keys with me so i just unlocked the basement
butcher and guest are the most common neighbors i see in QG
if you see a scary neighbor he's either a fresh install or a 1K hour tryhard, no inbetween
true
and since i was the last person alive i get field promoted
i've had several matches where i 1v1 a scary neighbor camping the basement and winning
its pretty funny
i remember miserably missing a rifle shot on a neighbor camping the door
place your keys in a room to the side, grab a box and some milk, then go to town
also if you're playing as inventor with some friends in quick game or custom game then you would just
never see a inventor in quick game that helps his team
most of inventors are either new players who dont understand his abilities or play selfishly and craft everything for themselves
the 15 hour clown player when he sees an inventor, brave, and scout with flashlight pans and power milk heading towards his location
i have never seen an inventor actually help their team in QG
it's always just them with the loot
i would love to see like, actual organized SN gameplay
where people actually help each other
i will only give stuff to my quick game teammates if they prove themselves to not be a complete idiot first
i always forget too
the neighbor literally never wins when that happens
genuinely
playing in a lobby with players who all had 1K hours or higher humbled me like nothing ever could
i think bagger could be a competent team player if you hand them like a key that you cant pickup cause you either have 2 keys or you have a rifle and a key with you
bagger is unironically one of the best classes just because he can carry more than 2 things
bagger is a top 3 class easy
that 3rd and 4th slot can be a complete game changer if the player actually utilizes it
i think leader and inventor are slightly more useful if they actually coordinate with the team tho
and scout is just annoying
bagger can also make the neighbor catch him to slow him down if he's not scary neighbor
maybe
that way the other kids can hit the neighbor easier
you mean butcher? the only thing that counters that ability is butcher's hook
scary neighbor has rage yeah but he still moves at a snail's pace
true
unless you're actively trying to do it ofc
also isn't butcher already slower
the slow down ability doesn't activate if the bagger gets hooked lmao
it just goes at normal speed like every other kid class
yeah i assumed
i think bagger just makes getting down from high places alot safer if he isnt the neighbor
he's very slightly slower, hardly notable though
since he can basically survive any height he can jump down and the other kids can follow and bagger can just revive them
it'll make some parkour a bit harder but in most cases butcher can traverse just fine
butcher cant activate moving platforms or moving stairs which sucks
he used to ik but like
they removed that for some reason
he used to be able to do that, then they removed it in halloween i think
it was a dumb change imo
yea
the best thing with butcher though
is what i like to call kid fishing
dude butcher should get a fisherman outfit sometime
which is hooking a kid from behind a gate then shutting it as you grab them
pov: you are playing butcher on map 3 or 5 (this will be the easiest win of your entire life)
hn2 beta reference
every half competent butcher player knows this trick nowadays, don't get why people haven't wisened up to it
map 3 can be horrifying when going against a guest player who knows how to play the game very well
literally just leave the room
once you start learning to maneuver around walls and abusing hitboxes the guest can become an absolute menace
its genuinely an optimal strategy to walk right into someone while you're grabbing a kid since the hitbox is so bad that the item they'll throw will just pass through you
i just think map 5 is perfect for butcher because of the low ground and abusable spots to hook from
and even then map 5 is hot garbo
true
map 5 either is super boring and takes too long or it ends instantly
there is no fun allowed
i actually had 2 matches in map 5 where i didnt need to unlock the level 4 area
like i didnt need to go to that area specifically
because rng on map 5 just happen to like me for some reason
i've had the round timer go to less than 2 minutes on multiple occasions
genuinely a slog to play
i feel like when people see the neighbor something triggers in their brain and they're just like
"i NEED to kill him"
hey
how would the police know if you mutilated his corpse with cardboard boxes and milk
it's like that one image of average iq
new players: i need to run away from the neighbor because i will die if i stay here
average players: i need to kill the neighbor because kids are more powerful and i can easily solo him
actually good players: i need to run away from the neighbor because i will die if i stay here
though that's usually a result of your teammates being idiots and not searching for keys while you're fighting him
i think the best optimal strategy for dealing with fights is to take it from alex ceo's mouth
just run
fighting the neighbor if he's goated at the game would only waste time
unless you're dealing with a guy who's camping the basement fighting him is a complete waste of time, especially if he's a good scary neighbor
yeah you would know from all the times i've managed 4v1s because everyone in our group is insistent on trying to kill me
and i made that same group make the timer tick down to 6 minutes i think
we're the only 2 who catch consistent neighbor wins lol..
:D
(this is probably a result of us both being losers and playing SN for over 1K hours)
nah im prolly the only loser pulling in over 2k hours
im actually getting too close for comfort to pull in 3k hours
and i still catch more neighbor wins than you with a thousand less hours on the game lol
i am built different,
also i barely spend time on the level editor so that's probably another reason behind it
just leave it open 24/7 so you can get 255 hours in the last 2 weeks
nah its like open LE and just watch youtube videos for a while and forget what i wanted to do and just close sn
my brain is hotwired to wanting to do stuff in LE and just end up not doing them
adhd brain is sitting in the level editor for 2 and a half hours and only getting progress on 3 rooms
and when i do get motivation to make an LE map i just give up not even halfway
because either the layout sucks or i just dont like it anymore
i just get really self conscious about the decorating and having a "unique" map
so that leads me to sitting around doing nothing because i don't wanna make a generic map but also too judgmental of any attempts to make something interesting
its hard making LE maps that you end up liking
cause eventually i will just no longer like the maps i make
the only thing i've made i'm somewhat proud of is luigi's mansion and that's only because i beat everyone else to the punch in making that
one of my maps that i actually loved making and updating is bugged now
the item pickups just dont work properly half of the time
moral of the story: perfectionism sucks and i hate it and it prevents me from accomplishing things

is someone playing sn?
😭
48, actually
the game has always done poorly in player count but it is super bad now
300 players is considered higher than average numbers for this game and that's really saddening
debatable, but i've talked about this game's problems enough already
i could go on and on about the repetitive gameplay, flawed voice chat system, balancing, ethics about paid cosmetics in a paid game, problems with the level editor, the teamers and script kiddies you see in quick game, but i've done that a lot and i don't need to do all that again
not rn anyway
steamdb
it shows players for steam only
but all platforms have simlar amounts anyways
the next update is so far away . .
when is it?
I personally voted for Brave rework on the poles
Though I do agree with the detective reworks
I think what he really needs is some type of detective ability that allows him to gather information about the neighbor; like a real detective would do
Maybe ge can find information about the neighbors whereabouts
Or info on who the kid in disguise might be
March probably 😠
Who wants to play Granny's Secret Neighbor :>
scout rework/ new ability is needed
prolly in april/may
Severs down?
Dont know
Have you tried to play a game?
yes
Are you able to play?
yeah
hello everyone 
I mean yeah but how would that work anyway? In my personal opinion, the neighbor's whereabouts is kind of useless. And with a neighbor in disguise, it's pretty easy to figure out if they're disguised or not as well as who the neighbor is in general without an ability. It sounds just as useless as the key highlight ability. I think it will be a defense ability if anything (since he has none) or maybe he gets a small speed boost after finding a photo key (since he is a speed runner character). I think completely replacing the Detective key highlight ability (since it's useless) with a camera that flashes and stuns the neighbor would be perfect honestly. It would be powerful but can only activate after finding 3 photo keys which means it can only be used 1-2 times in the average game. Maybe make it to where it only does effect if the neighbor is looking directly at you to balance it out a bit.
Also, his ability should be something he can use pretty quickly since he is a fast character in general and can solo games in less than 5 minutes. I hope the new ability/abilities does not interfere with that. I think he is already op when it comes to speed running and don't think the key photos should be touched. However, his key highlight ability is completely useless (except for new players maybe) and I absolutely think it should be replaced by something more useful, primarily a defense against the neighbor. Finding out where the neighbor is and who he is already gets revealed throughout the match and forcing Detective to stray from his priority, which is finding keys asap = slowing him down and giving no reason to play as him.
Although I agree since Detective is called detective, you would expect some kind of detective work against the neighbor, at the end of the day however, it's pretty pointless since his character revolves around finding keys quickly. That's why he gets a photo for keys to unlock the basement (the point and goal as kid for every match) and not a photo of where the neighbor is standing (figuring out who the neighbor is is just a recommended side goal you usually figure out effortlessly through a match).
I never did see Brave as the type of character to desperately need a rework. I'm happy that they nerfed the bat spam forcing players to actually time it. I think if brave got a rework, they might just focus on making her noob friendly. In fact, most of the characters are not very noob friendly, relying on tough aiming for survival is not a great way to start. I'd have to say, Bagger and Leader are perfectly balanced in my opinion, maybe make inspiration take a bit longer to activate but that could just be a quick nerf. As far as actual reworks go, I think the rest of the classes need them. I'm sure neighbors might end up getting reworks too eventually (we don't want kids to be too powerful) but I won't think that far yet.
Imagine detective getting the speed runner character skin besides brave
I wouldn't be surprised honestly.
Yes, it would kind of fit in a way
I feel like scout is fine
Well it's kinda debatable tbh it's fun playing as her but playing against her when the player is good is a living nightmare
Which update added the hg/hn2 alpha textures?
She is its just that it's too easy to miss with her nuts, and she can do absolutely nothing without nuts. It's not good to have to rely on such precise aiming as your only means of survival.
Maybe increase nuts or make nuts more accessible and reloadable during a neighbor war, or just give her a completely new ability.
I don't think it is absolutely essential that she gets a rework, however I do think it would be nice to get a rework for her if possible.
Agreed
Why are there no guest neighbor things to customise it
Because he was just released?
And he has an outfit.
He'll get more soon.
yo guys i am new to the game i am pc and i will like to play with my buddy who is ps4 how can i do

PS just have crossplay with switch
Bro wrote a whole essay 💀
But I see your point
And I agree
Now I agree with every single thing you wrote in this. Leader and bagger (and inventor) are fine. Brave needs rework but I'm not sure what. Scout should get a rework next after detective. She is useless if there aren't nur bags anywhere
Also I think all neighbors need a stamina buff
Why did they nerf it to begin with lol
You can loose stamina so easily now, just by missing grabs, using neat hook as butcher. Worst part is butcher can't even use his hook on low stamina!
Plus they already nerfed him with not catching kids with pots
It completely contradicts the point of butcher being able to run longer, now he can't even use his hook.
Exactly
I hate it
Imo, all neighbors should be able to run an extra 5 seconds than they already can without using stamina, they should loose way less stamina from grab misses, or not loose any at all
And butcher needs a buff
His hook should not take stamina
It should just go back to the way it was originally at least
Definitely
Scout is bad without nuts available
Yes, grabbing and abilities should not use up stamina, neighbors already have little stamina to begin with
now a nerf? Like what?
Kids should never be more powerful than the neighbor alone
In groups they are supposed to be slightly more powerful
Inventor is a god now, more powerful than every neighbor, and they mentioned adding something to use against the guests stun for Inventor too...
He's not more powerful, but if there is double investor than yes
I'm not saying he needs to be nerfed, neighbors just need a buff
I hope they do more of those polls. This time for the neighbors and what the neighbors need
I'll be voting for stamina buff
Same
Its great to see them actively in the community asking for feedback
why cant i play sn?
i can take down a group full of tryhards as scary neighbor most of the time, but it just isn't fair for new people.
i feel like everytime you play a round as neighbor you need to go full sweat mode.
Honestly a rework would make me consider replaying the game again
i would welcome something new to the gameplay too.
I like the thought of people playing leader more or bagger
that's why i also want them to add many more custom game options to spice up the gameplay.
Yes
Still fine with the missing grabs thing, but I agree that using abilities like the hook should not cost stamina
It's been almost 5 for me and I'm honestly bored of it
i still get some mileage out of it since i've taken quite a few breaks in the past
okay that's pretty great
should've sent it in #hello-neighbor not #secret-neighbor bc i'm not using SN assets for this
True but I mainly sent it here for afro but he's offline
i love this
Guys, is there a polls channel where we can vote for rework?
It's on YouTube

Looking smooth waffle boi
a friend leave from the server
and now cant play beacause of he has to play with leavers
:C
You get penalised for leaving game early
So he has to play other leavers
I love you game, play it daily. Just wish we could earn more tokens in a day
Shut up.
Don't worry I wasn't saying it any of yall someone was spamming but there messages are gone now
lmao
Almost thought you were replying to the other guy. it would be pretty hypocritical since your name is SN all day all night
2
Can somebody help me. I have a daily token task. Shoot neighbour 12 times with slingshot. I hit neighbour with slingshot nuts but it still says 0 out of 12. Is this a glitch or am I doing something wrong?
hi i have a problem in secret neighbor with mic i cant talk with my friends or hear them
it's on
?!
do you have voice chat on?
look in the settings
yes
My personal experience with that quest is that you can't do it too quickly in a row. you have to spread out your shots to count for some reason.
One message removed from a suspended account.
i think that will be included in level editor+
I wish they would just confirm if game editor has been scrapped or not
Guys i just saw a man with vr headset accessory for a brave, how do i get it
Im not sure what skin are you talking about, but i guess you just wait for it to appear in the shop and buy it. I think its a tickets thing
Idk probably, but thanks anyway
In my opinion u need to just wishlist the hn vr or something
Idk i didnt try it yet
Pyromancer Neighbor my beloved 😔
I think they're talking about the ghost hunter brave costume
isnt that the halloween skin for ghost?
wait how did I never notice that silhouette was just ghost's genie costume
still doesn't explain why he's holding a flame though
Red herring probably
It’s a Halloween skin
yep that's exactly what it is lol
these skins in SN would be cool
I didn't put Ivan's cause his is just one of default sn skins
i still want ivan's
but yeah i already suggested the hello engineer outfits should be a bonus in sn for buying the game
Not exactly
It was based of of it which is apparent
Except for the fire hand
seems the same to me
Yes but not the same because of the fire hand
yeah but that's still the same skin it just has an extra addition
Anyone wanna join xbox gamer tag weirdbanana#5486
What I think happened was they scrapped the Pyromancer but decided to use part of his model as a costume for ghost
Or maybe they only scrapped the hand. Or it was just edited in to draw away suspicion, make you think it was something besides the ghost.

I doubt it was originally a Pyromancer, scrapping it would of been under too short notice, and why would they tease it if they weren't sure if they'd change it or not?
Didn't they remove the hook off the snow thief butcher silhouette?
It doesn't have to be fire either.
Why would a ghost be able to utilize fire?
He is still missing legs in the silhouette which means it's still ghost, but instead of using his default, they used the genie skin + added a fire affect (which looks edited) to draw away suspicion so it wasn't obvious and kept you guessing.
This whole scenario is similar to how they removed the hook (his key identifiable trait) off of the snow thief silhouette; same scenario, to keep you guessing.
I think yr'oue overthinking but ok
Anyone wanna join my secret neighbor game gamer tag weirdbanana#5486
Maybe, but it makes sense.
Eh
I just gave like 3 evidence points.
I still stand by that they did come up with an idea for a Pyromancer neighbor that did have fire ability
it's really just semantics at this point
peen
agreeable
I made like an edit but idk what channel I send it in 🥹
Hn memes?
It’s not a meme
Well what is it
an edit
Secret neighbor or hello neighbor
Secret neighbor
Then here ig
Why a pyromancer though?
of all things?
Idk.. maybe because that's what they said he would be
Adam doesn't make arbitrary guesses in SN video, obviously it means the dev team told him about what the neighbor class might be
He wouldn't spoil it lol
Ik
otherwise there is no point of a silhouette
What is your point
(And don't type an essay, lol)
The point is obvious, if he knew, he would try to avoid giving it away. Which means the pyromancer guess would be the first thing to go off the list.
It was supposed to be a surprise and he literally said "I don't want to spoil anything but"
Yeah, he didn't give it away
Exactly so why would you think it's a pyromancer?
Reeeeeeee!
they never said that
"Maybe he'll be some type of Pyromancer"
And?
Obviously Adam was trying to hint at it
it's his opinion
the only reason he would know what it is is if they told him for the sole purpose of making sure he doesn't spoil it. He's just the video producer.
So it was originally a pyromancer?
You mean back when we were showing off silhouettes of the ghost neighbor?
Yes
Never was 😉
See
Though it would be cool
:o
A fire-wielding neighbor.
Yeah it would
Was the fire just to throw us off?
I guess
Was anything else from the roadmap ment to throw us off Adam?
Hello Adam
i mean they weren't really being secretive about much else, would be kinda weird to lie about that
Do you remember when map 5 was released?
Remember they said look out for someone in the neighborhood
Lurking
Was that meant to throw us off
that was referring to mith event, that was when trophies were added
Because we never found anyone
Oooooooooh
ugh not this theory again
