most current sn script children are like under the age of 9 anyway
so not suprising that they beg for stuff like that lol
what the hell is happening right now
Yeah and he started using your profile along with Adams lmao
So theres nothing that can stop him….
Not really cuz he has all the spare time in the world apparently
He uses the accounts he stole to cheat on the game
Instead of his main
If i get into a game with him, does he get my account or i have to like dm him or something?
Like he can get whatever account he wants just by playing with people?
Don't accept friend requests from people you don't know, avoid opening any link without knowing that it is safe and you will be fine
Okay got it thank you
Oh and beware of any friends sending you "🤗"
Because that's a known sign of him compromising your friends account
nobody can hack you in sn just by playing the game
Ye
basically do what jacky said
They need links n stuff
dont dm them and dont click any links
Ye
Its recommended to disable friend requests too, just tell people to ping you in a server when they want to add you
U can find it in privacy settings or friends
Not really, he's just your average kid in his mom's basement stereotype
damn
I mean I'm in a basement too but I have a life outside of SN and I don't terrorize people in the worst ways
Plus basements are stereotyped as dark and scary while mine is literally as bright as the sun with the lights and the ceiling tiles look like they belong in a school
oposite
This game is 🙁 bad
this game was 😔 good before
Hi
@wispy karma clown said he's gonna mass report my account but I don't even contact him, he is just picking me at random
Don't worry
Ik he's just bothering me
It's like I said above, if you don't listen to him and don't open any links he can't do anything to you.
Thanks, and I have pretty thick skin so I'm not hyperventilating or anything
Why is not come to İOS?
Wdym
Is the game down? I'm having an error
every time i log in i see this
ah nvm i'm in
Thats a lot of text for feedback
That's not too bad if your butcher on map 5
it was guest on map 3
some died and some disconnected
the guest was a begginner you could tell
I died anyway he snuck from behind
Wow someone was actually stealthy in sn 2023?!
It's really rare for that to happen
Holy crap sn stealth 2023😱
😭
Good luck on finding people
I literally got the penalty cuz i left a game were the missing bug occured
It took me like at least 20 minutes to find 5 other people
people may already know to do this but if you wanna leave a game use task manager
it keeps you from getting a penalty
That must be a world record
it once took me like 2 minutes to get in a game with a penalty
i must have been lucky
Still in the penalty lobby 😪
hes good but i dont like his voice and always uses brave ..
I get annoyed when I get it 💀
On paper a penalty system sounds pretty good. The problem is the way they implemented it.
I am intrigued
map 5 with the awful daytime lighting and the snow / snow storm hurts my eyes
Not fair that brave looses her second ability when downed but leader and detective don't imo
Leaders ability isn't even that broken anymore
well yeah because counter strike is directly used to escape from the neighbor when caught and the other two aren't
This is how the penalties should work, or something like this: if you leave a match you have a 5 minutes time out where you can't join a quick match, when time is up you can play but you can't use cosmetics or earn daily quests until you win a match. This would be so much better
Can't use cosmetics?
Idk about that
cosmetics? what's the point of that
Fair
also counter strike is incredibly easy to earn whilst teamwork and intuition take a couple minutes at the least
I still find leader a little bit overpowered than a lot of the other classes
I main her
Its not really imo
no yeah i absolutely agree with that, i think you just need to remove the decreased stun time and she's balanced
compared to Brave abd scout
also maybe a longer cooldown on inspiration
This
I think this would be fine
If she lost her ability when downed, it'll be quite impossible to use it because it takes so long to earn it
i thought he was talking about teamwork not inspiration
oh wait nvm i misread that
yeah we've already agreed that's not a good idea
teamwork is the quest that allows you to blind the neighbor, inspiration is the speed up and debuff remover
Yep
If you use inspiration while a kid is stunned will it unstun them?
Because its negative effect
yeah
I think it does

i know it does because you can use that against the guest when he does scaring croak
Oh yeah
A little broken
We don't need leader nerfs right now especially because that stun bug as guest when on a wall is still a thing
leader is just really annoying for the guest to go up against
stun bug? what are you talking about
being able to use scaring croak infinitely? that was patched
Ok I haven't played nor tried it in awhile
Not that bad if the leader is outdoors and you leap
Leap is farther than inspiration
And is faster
Just during fights leader is pain
true but a competent leader would realize that and instead go for jukes instead of outrunning you
Me and my friends played SN on controller and it was a nightmare
leaping is fast but you can't control the direction so it's easy to take advantage of corners
Yeah
though if you hold the alt key before charging a leap then let it go you can regain 360 degree control of your camera while charging a leap and that's funny
could do some fakeouts with that
Lol
actually the alt look feature is just pretty broken, you can do the same thing for bear traps and clinging to a wall
I'm going to try that
also i discovered this glitch about a month ago and it's hilarious
What is it my school wifi sucks
if you attempt to kick down a blocked door while charging a leap then stop the kicking animation, you can move with a fully charged leap
and when you let go of the leap, the last item you pressed e to pick up will automatically go in your inventory no matter how far you are from it when you pressed e
Yep
i don't think it's very useful outside of some incredibly niche and uncommon situations but it looks stupid so it's funny
Also when I was playing on controller
Me and Seth literally made one of our friends rage quit
And laughed the entire night
playing sn with a controller always feels super janky, at least it's better than pc hn2 with a controller which doesn't even function properly
probably because most of the tech in this game is 500% harder on a controller lol
Ye
some tech are possible to do on a controller
doing skips and such is not as consistent so it slows down the pace of SN matches a lot
mostly due to the imprecision of a joystick compared to a mouse
Ikr
On controller we used no skips
Cuz it was so hard for me at least
I never played console but Seth used to
also the sensitivity just never feels right no matter the settings i use
either it's fighting or searching rooms that feels really jank
The sensitivity being on zero is good on controller for me
wait i check
i'm surprised that they don't have controller and mouse sensitivity as separate settings tho
most games do that
i mean
Ikr
its sn
That isn't an excuse anymore lol
yeah but controller support has been a thing for like 4 years and that's such a basic quality of life setting, at this point it's just poor accessibility
Love it when my school depends on a website that doesn't even register turning in our work and yell at us just to get proved otherwise
Facts
Also 4 years 💀
actually there's a lot of accessibility problems in SN, i remember talking to adam (mad-eye) about the night vision goggles for inventor and he said that they're good for his friend who's somewhat colorblind and like, why don't we have colorblind settings then ??
Yeah
Yea I actually had an irl colorblind friend play sn
MrGreen told me his color blind friend can't put keys in the door very well cuz of it
Ye
they should also add more distinction to the keys themselves other than color
like with symbols or different shapes
eh yknow what that's gotta go in feedback, just posted that

I finally posted my feedback
I like how they added proximity chat for us to attempt in gaining trust but majority is used for talking trash
then the other times it's just generic team game comms
how long have you been typing
Writing a new SN song real
Secret neighbor the musical
I think Brave losing counterstrike when downed is a fair enough balance change, since it's only dependent on how quickly you can hit the neighbor. Leader's quest ability is a lot closer of a comparison to the one Bagger has, since you have to wait at least 2 minutes for it to fill. If that progress restarted every time someone downed you It'd be very difficult to obtain.
I see now
Still think they need to debuff leader
Without taking away her stun time
Maybe add 5 seconds onto the cooldown of her main ability?
Yes 
Thats a good compromise
Well it's not bad imo cuz no other classes can do that
Plus they only buffed her to get more people to use het
Her
which class do you think should get reworked after detective?
Let me clarify: I don't think leader is op and incredibly broken, but the other classes are just underpowered compared
Except bagger is pretty balanced
Probably scout or bagger tbh
It really depends
Scout
Bagger is fine
Scout is useless without nuts
Ye
But scout should be more priority than bagger
nah i think they should remove heavy bones or whatever it was called, kinda dumb that you have to basically avoid grabbing a bagger in a fight just because of that ability
I like it cuz people in quick game have bad aim
I think its fine they should just make the bagger less heavy
Maybe the neighbor doesn't go snail speed
Same, it is overpowered though
But still a little slow
Its too slow definitely
i'm more for the "remove it entirely" route since i don't think bagger should give the neighbor any slowdown by doing literally nothing, but agree to disagree
Who says he has to do nothing? It should be based on how many items he is holding.... if he is holding 1 items he is normal in the neighbor's hand but 2 or 3 or 4 makes the neighbor slow
I like how bagger reminds me of the glue visual bug
The glitch that made it seem like you were unable to move in the glue
strong knees also needs an update, if you're at full health you can literally survive any fall
They patched that
Kinda
you drop the item you're holding when you get grabbed this would not work well
1 item would almost never happen and 2 it would just be 1 item again
Wait let me edit my message
Ok I changed it
If you have 2 -3 items in your inventory than the neighbor goes slow
Because a normal kid can only have 1 item at most in their inventory if caught
Me casually carrying 3 24/7
So if the bagger had more than the neighbor goes sloe
eh, regardless that wouldn't take much skill to use since there's items littered everywhere in the house
it would still be pretty much the same
I really hope they decrease item spawns in makes cabinets so cluttered
Its not that bad
it absolutely is with the items that serve a unique purpose in gameplay
there are way too many saucepans, power milk, and candy bars for their current power rn
Yeah but it's annoying, like when your trying grab a key card in a sink but instead you have to grab a dog dish, a milk jug, a tire, and a flashlight before you get your keycard
What type of game design is that, like actually
Oh yeah that's bad
Kinda chuckled how true this is
i think it's suppose to make the house look more dirty and unkempt without placing unique decorations everywhere
Well its not working
but when you see plants and dog bowls on top of stoves it sorta breaks the immersion more than it adds
It looks ugly and cluttered and hard to grab tbings
What if it filled up only while the fear effect is active?
Yeah
soooo it would be active 99% of the time then
then it resets after use
I'm laughing so hard because of this and idek why dude it's so frickin true
Lol
also that just doesn't really sound right either? "i looked at you in fear for 15 seconds, now i've gained 30 additional pounds"
sorta arbitrary
Yea dude he's goin' still as a statue, gotta put on the weight accordingly
Dude I'm laughing at everything now
I'm going to make a feedback post on it
I laughed audibly in class at that
Same
this new patch they just dropped for earth is messed up, why did they make it so you GAIN weight after running a marathon from a guy who's trying to kill you ??
LMAO
New scientific discovery shows that humans gain mass calories from fear
okay okay I get it it's a bad idea lmao
god better get to work on that hotfix
nah don't worry not trying to insult ya, just jokes
Yes
Yeah ik it's cool
We were chatting here for my entire class period, but yes I was working in the background
What about scout? If you hold your slingshot, you don't drop any items when you're grabbed.
that makes it so she has 2 items in her inventory
so it wouldn't make sense
True
I didn't know that
I didn't either
it's technically its own item
Also inventor if you hold metal detector
If u hold any ability item
I used this to bring multiple items out of map when trying to do rocket event
it's handy when toxic players try to knock you down to get your keys
also not relevant to the ability due to the requirements, but having an empty inventory slot with an item in the other also makes it so that one doesn't drop
That's also why leaders stun time is good too
But kinda annoying when playing against her as neighbor
nearly all kids can be pains in the neck for the neighbor if players ACTUALLY use them right.
yeah tho balancing mechanics around people who are intentionally playing the game incorrectly is a bit odd
Secret neighbor graphics 2045
Bagger can throw items and quickly knock through locks if paired with detective.
Brave can stop him from fighting back AND counter strike
Leader can blind him with the power of Run! and go circles around him
Inventor can somehow make a gun and shoot him.
Detective, while not a offensive class, knows where the keys are and if paired with a experience player means the neighbor might have a hard time.
Scout and that dang slingshot of hers. Need i say more.
Also secret neighbor not being alive
true but in the case of all the other classes, they actually have to make a conscious effort on their part in order to do so
leader's reduced stun time is achieved by... being bad at dodging items?
Speaking of that, I'm good at fighting and aim sometimes but I suck at dodging
Ya know i was about to make the argument 'what about the fall damage immunity with bagger' then i realized, a experienced neighbor could just throw something at the bagger and BAM he's instantly down.
Leader, there's no way to stop the reduced stun.
also heavy bones but we already talked about that
that's uncounterable unless you play butcher
A little off topic, but I think they need to make custom foliage for secret neighbor. The HN1 foliage and trees are ugly, but the hn2 foliage is so out of place. I think foliage that takes inspiration from HEs foliage would be nice
disagree i think hn1 foliage looks good
HN1 foliage was always cool to me especially the trees, it's nostalgic
mostly for the sake of art style consistency
The trees 🤮
No
trees look good wdym
Trees are the best thing
I disagree
fair
The bushes are ugly tho
I know right
Yeah
I agree actually, not a huge fan of HN1 foliage in general
The hn1 trees have no detail and are just literal blobs
but anyway HN2 foliage looks bad in SN and i don't think HE inspired foliage would look good either since that's a pretty similar vibe to hn2
Hn2 bushes are impossible to hide in
bro why no one tell me clown detective was in shop for 2021 coins
A mix between a HE tree and HN1 tree would look nice, less blob like and more detail
yes
The only HN1 tree left is literally the one in green house
i think the lack of detail is what makes it good since HN1 art style is very simplistic
Ye
based, no argument with that
Like it doesn't match at all
I am the most serious detective in the world
I don't like hn1 foliage but at least it's consistent with the game
only part from the hn1 foliage that i think looks bad is the tall grass, literally just green triangles
doesn't mix with any of the grass textures
I don't have a big problem with this but hn1 style also has a lot of polygons
Way to many
Look at the dog dish or tuna can or flashlight
Not circular
too many polygons? the sharp edges are indicative of a low polygon count
This is not a circle
There are edges
Its a polygon
and thats a problem?
Just visually I don't like it, its not major or anything
Its hard to notice
who want playing with me, me newbie
yeah when the polygons are noticeable that means there's a low amount of them
I hear what you're saying, but more polygons does result in more advanced shapes
?
higher polygon models are smoother
Also HN1 had a wacky art style
I don't mind the wackiness, I like it
Then???
fellow construction hat user spotted
Cobra

there are 12 of us
i saw a guy claim that he got the construction hat from the item shop lmao
And half of y'all don't play the game anymore
pretty sure he was just trying to cover up his hacks
He was cuz it was never in there
yeah i knew he was lying because if it DID go in the item shop, i would have noticed ppl complaining about it
i don't chat super often here but i do lurk the server often
Same
HN2 keeps getting teasers and animation peeks
Gtg
Secret Neighbor we have no idea what the devs are working on
Cya
I want more communication
yeah, it feels like the usual sn update formula is
update comes out > a patch or two is released > news on the game goes dead silent aside from small events > a neighborhood news episode is released > cycle continues
Ye
i mean tbf we did get a teaser trailer for call of the kraa but that's like, the only notable instance of "teaser trailers" for recent sn updates
The real secret neighbors were the Hologryph team members we met ..along the way?
so like 2 of them
remember when we just, randomly got a teaser showing trip mine switches in the level editor channel and never saw anything remotely like that again
TinyBuild is a million dollar company while Holo is a small team
Yup!
They could higher more to work on the game to make it more polished and get updates out faster
just turned em into lasers for the superhero event
game editor better be the most customizable mode of all time for being in development for 3 years
Its still in development?
i'm assuming that level editor+ is just game editor renamed
they called it "mod editor" at some point too so that's not unreasonable
Yeah, even taking into account the setbacks Holo faced the update is still long overdue
tB not highering new devs to help work on it with millions of money
Hiring*
i just wish they would be more transparent about how things are going, i'd be fine with features being delayed (or in the most extreme cases, cancelled) if they told us about that upfront
Yes disappoint now than later
The HN series as a whole just has a very bad transparency problem
though, we still get way more HN2 info than we do SN info
they're doing better now with hn2 nowadays (post-launch, anyway) but yeah the sn community has gotten a huge decrease in info ever since christmas 2020
Helpful.
context: my primary monitor is darker than my secondary so i couldn't see the photo
i'm fairly certain that's just a picture of stairs anyway lol
wouldn't be useful even if it was brighter
This Neighbor has already Breach defenses. You seen what he done to our colleagues!. And worse of all! he can be any one of us. He could be in this very room!..... It Could be You!. It Could be me!. It could Even be....
Bruh
just beat a camper
and the end bugged out
so we didn't get any rewards
love this game
My favorite way to beat campers on map 1 and 2 is to block the closet they are in with a chair
Lol
lock campers like this
lol
Unban Seth please
I asked you for his full nickname in DM,
For unban requests, please contact @wispy karma
Ok
He was banned?
uh anyone wanna do a match?
Tiny build can you add back the werewolf in the future items tomorrow
Mass reported by y'know who and he got his account temporarily disabled
it's always a epic win when you can do this.
sadly campers seem to have wised up and stopped hiding under the stairs
still hide under stairs for me
unfortunately 90% of the time i either get map 5 or map 3
this is still my best gameplay with mic from others
best one

it give me pity on him... 😭
is curious clown that guy?
what do you meant ?
the hacker
can i play this with friends on steam?
yes if you are on steam too
ok so can i play with a friend and randoms if so how?
create a custom game and give to your friends the pass + name of the room.
If you want to play with randoms, create with no pass
if you want to go in quick games with friends, press "find game" in same time, i can't guaranty you'll be in the same room due to the slots remaining
Yes
it's not a hacker but a scammer
if you keep blocking his alts and do not click on any link, you're fine
close your friend requests to avoid him for good
He does also hack
yeah cuz hes a loser
hey i just got this game can someone help and i dont know if this is where I go to play
You can play the tutorial
yeah i tyed but i didnt help me
Can't get on right now sorry
its ok
youtube has bad tutorials
Hey I bought secret neighbor today and I wanted to know if, me being on steam, I could play with ps4, ps5 players?
Ok
And if i buy it on another app
Like microsoft store ?
Hello!
Please see below for the currently available crossplay options for Secret Neighbor.
Secret Neighbor current crossplay options :

• Steam | iOS : no crossplay
For more information on Secret Neighbor such as platform availability, feel free to check out https://www.secretneighbor.com/
Just look in random areas to find them
you can watch the secret neighbor beginner guide video, or my slightly updated version (sorry, didnt mean to self promote)
or just keep playing until you get the hand of it
its pretty easy
thanks
thats a glitch? i always thought the person is hacking
and also why does that happen
Yes it is
Idk
it happens to me like every 5 games its so annoying
For real
Sometimes one kid doesn’t get it
Like sometimes everyone get the missing bug except for the neighbour and one random kid
If the bug isn't patched in spring update than I will be very concerned
Everyone will be very concerned
This is still painful to look at
especially on this skin
Holo's quality control is horrible
Don't get me started
||oops forgot to turn off ping at a late hour||
To start with the snow falling in the main lobby screens and costimization screens is uy bright and hard to see
The main lobby is painful because of how cluttered it is, there are like little pieces of super hero cosmetics there for no reason
In game the hn2 foliage is horrible mixed with the hn1 style
Just got into a game as clown on map 4 and the basement door was open in less then 2 minutes unfortunately
Cabinets are so cluttered and not only look horrible but you can't even pick up the item you want because each cabinet spawns 573564 random items
Do I need to go on?
They ruined the graphics so bad in the last update
I could rant all day
this is the worst the game has ever looked
Graphics overhaul when
Also Holo are either really lazy or they have short term memory loss because they just won't remove halloween decor
They have memory loss
Also the decor for each update gets worse and worse each year
That makes 0 sense
Baspro said they forgot
somehow...?
Who tf thought this looked good
Oh yeah and metal snow
🤢
If I was a dev for this game I would check literally every small thing to make sure it's good
I can't wait for the snow to be gone. Also didn't the trees used to have snow on them?
They forgot to give the trees snowy textur3s
yes the Hn1 trees had actual snowy textures!
Yeah
Holo did not do this with the hn2 ones
Hn1 trees fit much better
If I had a degree and skill in game design I would fill a Holograph job application
Each update gets worse and worse
In decorations it does
I wouldn't say it gets worse but each update they add less new cobtent
All we got this Christmas was metal snow and the inventor can craft useless goggles
The inventor new stuff is useless
The detector only goes off when you actually are super close to a item so at that point just opening everything is quicker
Because you can like, idk, just open the drawer to see what's in it, not a metal detector that slows you when you use it
Yeah
I hope detective dosent get a bad rework
Yeah
it better be a good rework
i just want detective to be fun
and be used for something other than speedrunning
Yes
1st off, no more than 2 keys should be able to spawn in level one areas
I feel like the game was harder without keycard doors
The key spawns were more spread out
True
And keycards spawn to much too
Yeah
They should also rework the ways keys are spread out
They have to spawn extra keys in the game just incase some get lost or trapped in someone's inventory
But the extra keys should not spawn in level 1 and 2 areas
There needs to be some randomly generated bricked doors like alpha
That would be cool, might be annoying in quick game unless done well
They also need to update their soundtrack
Hn2 has an awesome soundtrack
I want old ambience theme
Not saying SN should have a similar synth like ost, but a better one than now
We need better ambience
Same but I don't know if they will add that back
Secret neighbor fans try to find anything actually positive to say about the game challenge
okay...
ghost neighbor has an awesome design, level editor is probably the best feature they've ever added to the entire game, some of the recent cosmetics have been really well crafted, the weather system is a fun way to slightly spice up each match, (even if it's been sorta "nerfed" with xmas) and map 1 and 2 are still incredibly fun to play on even after 3 / 4 years
i think with a lot of "aesthetic" stuff for SN i'm sorta at a point of acceptance, like yeah it'd be nice if we could return back to the old vibes but it's fine if not and i'd rather focus on the actual gameplay yknow
yeah pretty much, though i think complaining about that too is also beating a dead horse
there's not really anything new to discuss with SN, all that's left is to wait for the next update and see how that switches things up
actually i guess there is still some stuff to talk about, mostly related to the roadmap
people have probably already mentioned this, but i think the spring update coming towards the end of the brawl event actually has some merit now
perhaps there might when the level editor+ releases
People in my friend group have speculated that the devil neighbor could be used for a future contest or is just an exclusive
Which I doubt for both since it's been in the game forever now
but for god sake: the judges selected a frickin DUMPSTER as their number 1
Cool concept. Its fun to switch around your play style with different classes. The guest has really cool animations that make him look really creepy. The events are really fun and cool. (exclude map 5) Map 1, 2, and 3 have great layouts. The LE allows you to make your own creations
I like the skins, I like events, chases with the neighbor can be fun
This method does not work on Alex lol. It could work on Holo devs I suppose
Yeah I'll try it for Holo
But they're never here most of the tine
So it would really only work on Adam
Who left
Sooo
In the feedback section
Well they have to get on sometime to read #feedback right?
If you haven't noticed Holo only takes like 1 or 2 suggestions into considerstion every other update. Those suggestions are usually very minor too

I guess
Maybe their team is too small to add all the suggestions?
Tiny build has millions of dollars just higher more devs
Impossible!
Its like they don't really care for the game that has the most potential
I hope we get some solid content in spring update since its been a while since the last update
Even if they don't add super big things its the quality and details
tbf "throw more workers at the problem" is not as easy as one may think
And if they just polish a few things I'd just be happy to see them making an improvement
They need to solve the problem one way or another
You need workers that actually care enough to put in effort first
Whether that be more workers or a raise, something to let us get more content in a timely manner
I mean I'd assume the devs care. This is like their first "major" game
if nobody at hologryph cared i think the game would just stop updating tbh
I didn't say they didn't care about the game. I said they don't care about putting in effort to make the game better. It actively gets worse
well i'd rather wait to see if they deliver on the content from the roadmap before assuming as such
I'm not assuming, I've been with this game for years I have seen it decline, get better, and decline again
The devs have put in way less effort into quality control and it shows
This is why you don't have multiple platforms for a small team
I wonder what went wrong to make them do this
The alphas were quality
The beta was good for its time and the devs always released a lot of patches
Than these past updates we get less and less content
Call of the kraa was decent because we got a new neighbor class, new weather types, and 3rd person
The winter update all we got was inventor crafting useless goggles and we got metal snow
And an event I guess but once you play it to get your trophy you probably won't touch it again
They need to rework gameplay
The lobby music in hallo 2020 👌
Then they ruined it in 2021 and 2022
And the decor oh the poor decor
They made new wallpapers and paintings for Halloween only to not use them again, and they stopped using the castle walls and stopped making the house have withered textures
Christmas got it so much worse
I liked the castle walls
cool but we still got half a roadmap to go through, neither you or i personally know hologryph devs so saying they don't care about making the game better because you personally found recent updates lackluster is a bit bold of a claim
Yeah
but...
but..
money😭😭
(thank you tinybuild)
Too many platforms to deal with, angry community, hackers attacking moderation teams, it'll never be like this anymore
Tb please higher more people!
At this point just higher the community
No
hate to be that one guy but it's "hire" not "higher"
throw ios out the window and itll be much better
True they added it on to many platforms when they weren't ready
that is so not a good idea lol
What is a good idea?
They already trusted former cheaters with their stuff
only reason why its not a good idea is because nobody in the hn community knows about unity
ue4 on the other hand....
don't look at me i'm not mister "knows how to maintain a live service multiplayer game" but you aren't either, just saying
dx?
Phone acting dum
Dude fr
i also don't think they could legally hire most people here who are active specifically with the SN community
Not over 18
thsts because community too young lol
also i think you need to know russian if you wanna work at tb(??)
I don't think so
I meant people who would be eligible
There's not many of them
2 - 6
thats when you consider script kids lol
Lmao
didn't know i was communicating with toddlers rn dang
Dam
I've gotten in rounds with kids on their microphones and the sound like toddlers and they don't even say real words
So yeah,2 - 6
I always hear little kids screaming in voice chat
"I will hack your account with this hack client I downloaded and didn't even make"
👻
i remember some poor dude having a mental breakdown in a quick game😟
do you fluently speak every language because most of those kids probably just don't speak english lol
Yeah, it's actually rare for English players now
On steam
And half of the English player base don't use a mic anymore
It's mostly Russian players and I can't speak Russian
Ok tell me that repeating the word "ub a jub, ub a jub, ub a jub" is a language and not jubberish
Gibberish? 💀
i only speak english myself so i wouldn't know
Same but it could be a troll at the same time
The little kids like to repeat always
i've made kids cry in this game from killing them too many times when they're the neighbor
I've caught kids before and when they get caught they turn on their mic just to make a loud deep bass boom with static 💀
Also I don't judge when people speak other languages im fine with it but I can tell when they repeat the sane word over and over
Dead and alive at the same time
Imagine if everytime you wre caught and escape it saves you progress on dying
So when you are caught again you have mere seconds
I would say the last two updates have actually been pretty good content-wise.
yeah then that's not gibberish they're just repeating simple phrases, i saw a video of a kid who would only say "neighbor" over and over because that was the only english word they knew, doesn't make it gibberish but they certainly don't have a wide vocabulary
I wouldn't say last 2, maybe call of kraa
How did you do that
Their work reflects. I don't need to know them personally to see they don't put in as much effort as they used to
And even when they do complete parts of the roadmaps they always come out half baked
I see hackers do it
Scared
Scared smiling
What are your opinions on the idle animation?
fair, though to act like old SN had so much more care put into it is a very nostalgia blind take
It is goofy
the one you make after overhearing someone talk behind your back
decorations hardly matter in the grand scheme of the things and we had the guest as a new class not that long ago, and that's probably one of the most high effort things they've added to the game
The kids are like bent down with their faces up fir some reason
Her eyes are sparkling
She watched Enzo get caught 😔
Creepy
They make everyon3 do the neighbor emotes and then the eyeballs pop out
wasn't specifically a hacker thing tho it was pretty funny
yeah there was a bug with how you equipped emotes that allowed you to put neighbor only emotes on a kid
i forgot the setup to it tho
Now hackers do it
isnt it patched?
No. Old SN did have more effort put into it's quality control, it has nothing to do with nostalgia, and I'm not just talking ahout decorations either I'm talking about everything. Everything declines in quality, there's clearly no playtesting, they takes ages to fix the smallest of bugs, some of which remain in the game still. The devs do not put in as much effort as they used to make things have good quality. Right now Holo is choosing quantity of quality and that's a bad decision, they are a medium sized team and they clearly can't handle all this stuff along with porting to consoles. IOS hasn't recieved a update is almost 2 years, consoles are thankfully sort of caught up. I'm tired of pretending new SN is good because it isn't, again, quantity over quality, they only care about adding as much as they can to make the fans happy and even then the things they push out suck because again quantity over quality. Feedback! They almost never take feedback unless it's some minor thing no one will use or notice, which is sad because there are so many good ideas they could use but don't.
yes, I believe it was patched in the call of the kra update
bro there was a bug that randomly made it so quick games would just refuse to start and that took them months to patch it out
New SN is the most low quality, buggy, ugly version I've ever played and it's frustrating to see this game go downhill. No new content can save this game unless they up their quality first
For example have you seen the trees? They are literally made of glass
They're all see through
How does that happen
Adding hn2 foliage was a mistake
how does having players randomly become entirely white or yellow happen? the game's always been like this
Stop using old bugs as an excuse
but you're talking about how old sn had better quality control???
Yes it did. New SN is far worse in terms of quality
Not saying old sn is perfect
But it's far better
I agree
If you actually think new SN is better in terms of quality control you're just lying to yourself
They used to release patches way faster
when did i say that it's gotten better? i'm saying that it hasn't changed all that much
Oh yes it has
I definitely see where you're coming from with this, but I think you need to clarify what about old secret neighbor was that much more quality. I'd argue the game has always been the same quality-wise. Every update to the game has had their own pros and cons.
I'll say it again, but no amount of new content can make the game good unless they up their quality first
that's what i'm saying
the bug where you could randomly fall through the entire map and get stuck in the void took like 2 years to patch out at the least
that was a problem people were experiencing day 1 of launch and i still had it happen as late as summer 2021
also i think it's very hypocritical to both say that modern sn is lower quality because they "don't care about putting effort into making the game good anymore" and "all the console ports have put too much work on them"
pick one
also for the record, i'm not saying this to intentionally be hostile about your opinions, but i do think they're heavily debatable
Console ports aren't helping them get any better, I do think it's something that's holding them back, but even before they added more ports the quality was already declining
ok so
- bring back alpha lighting
- bring back old ambience themes
- bring back bathtubs
already better game
I love the bathtubs
they wanted them to stay but the community hated it apparently so they listened and deleted it
only on paper lol, first two don't matter that much and the bathtubs were horribly unbalanced as cool as they were in concept
levelling up the neighbor is a fun idea but everyone just realized that trying to be subtle about using them is mostly ineffective and would just rush all the gens, revealing their identity in about a minute's time
Bathtubs should only increase Ted's speed, or increase hit points to kill him
That's what I would do
the rest of the game would need heavy reworks to make them worth having
Bathubs in map 5
yeah that would be horrible
though that's more so an issue with map 5 just being... map 5
true
just wanna ask, what point in the timeline do you think that decrease in quality started happening
Late 2020/early 2021 honestly
What I don't get is why they made great dark lighting for Halloween 2020 but then removed it
The new lighting is very..green?
If you turn lights off the room is still lit up well
And it's all green
the current lighting is basically the worst aspects of the launch day-rocket science lighting and summer 2021 lighting combined
that's fair but about the console ports, they did neglect the xbox version for like half a year and that started right after easter 2020
choco bar combo + blinding + speedboost = Leader good
I hate the leader…
Yeah Holo has like always had trouble with consoles
Even when it was just one
Poor IOS lmao
They should just discontinue it
ios shouldnt have sn in the first place
maybe it's for the better since the playstation and switch players rejoiced the moment mobile didn't have crossplay with them anymore lol
like ok a lot of people requested it
but those who did were like 4-12 at most
SN android waaah!
and theyre probably not even making big profit out of it whatsoever
surprisingly i still see a good few people making content about mobile sn on youtube
i suppose there's people that play even more stagnant games, but still
Secret Neighbor doesn't have an ending.
secret neighbor sad backstory 😢 (i made this in like 10 minutes lol)
who are those
toy story characters
Lmaoo
Secret neighbor new update
Bonnnie! For the love of god, where tf is Woody!!
Is this canon to the "if hello neighbor was realistic* series
alternate timeline where the neighbor becomes obsessed with roleplaying as andy instead of buzz lightyear
Imagine if they added fear rooms to SN
💀
Wait actually.... I have a thought out concept on how this could work
Events could make that concept work
so like in this one match on map 4
the neighbor saw me even tho i was using the fear supermarket ability
he is hacking ban this script kiddie
oh my god i remember that
Real
Since SNs house is different I thought of new fear rooms
And for balancing reasons or whatever u call it, abilities shouldn't be given imo
shameless
Supermarket is my favorite tho
The rooms environment is so good
And the ambience is somewhat relaxing
it takes 3 tries or more to put an item in a cart
mannequins steal ur items and clips the cart into u
or they push it
Yeah now, they did something to slightly make it harder
I swear it was way easier back then
I was thinking an event
But when activated robotic mannequins move around and try to catch you, if they catch you they hold you for a few seconds before you either break free or the neighbor catches you
It would be cool if this was an event on the slingshot wars map
And you have to team together to defend yourselves against the mannequins
Basically you find some lever or you have to do some thing and you discover that underneath the junk yard / playground or whatever place the brawl mode takes place the neighbor has a lab under ground
You go into a small tunnel under ground abd you see the neighbor, who pushes a button and releases mannequins at you
You must use your slingshot to defeat them but if you get caught by the mannequins too many times your fear level increases and if it goes up too high you go missing but you don't respawn like normal brawl mode. If you win you get a trophy
Boom fear level event concept made in 6 minutes
Also would have a lot of replayability
there is most definetly not an update coming soon..
also what
what are they doing......
well they are doing something
Survival mode in a nutshell
Call of duty zombies
A slightly poor concept imo.
Before you ask, no I have nothing better to add
Yeah
But its more of a concept of a concept
What do you think they're doing lol
I think tomorrow we get new the update
maybe
Ira said something would be at the end of the week
So it's either tomorrow or the weekends
it could be anything
brawl is a good idea but almost no one plays it
They need to add some reward that would encourage players to want to play it more maybe
Ikr only news we get anymore
Amen to that
Ah
Hn2: we will go indepth on the roadmap and show you new animations we are working on and release mostly frequent updates
Sn: we will add "progression system"
- crickets *
@pine lichen nice try
for what did you ping me
trying to block tha basement door
okay?
The "thing" at the end of the week is either a teaser for the update or the update itself
one of the two
I'll be happy with either one
Anyone to play secret neighbor rn? Join general 1
how large are the spring updates usually?
Pretty small last time I remember
😔
Its small patches that usually remove snow
And adds very small tweaks
This time might be different tho
I hope the don't just remove the snow
Along with a tweak
That was basically this past winter update: they added snow and added goggles and a threat sensor
They might try to tinker with the detective s little bit if the new stuff is even ready to be tested
Not a lot
Yeah
Or they could've chosen a different class to rework entirely
I think it will be decently sized, though it will probably be the smallest seasonal update of the year
Better than nothing at this point
Halloween and summer seem like the big ones
Also the skin contest winners didn't even get skins that look remotely similar to their designs
have any of the winning costumes from the skin contest actually gotten into the game? Or even been an inspiration for a costume in the game?
Probably inspiration
But I don't recall seeing any direct inputs of their design
There was a devil brave one I liked a lot but I forgot if it even won or not
She had a dress and something else
But most importantly the design had no hat
I thought it was cool
That's technically the crazy scientist skin we got now tho
is it just me or is the guest kinda broken on map 4
its just map 4
get better
the game is dead or it's me , i can't find a game
camping is a strategy
my skill level has went higher as soon as i saw this
nothing they can do about that
how can you guys find a full game
just the simple answer
amazing answer
well again camping is a strategy and they cant do anything about it
yeah i guess
either give up or play very smart
they should also nerf the smoke bomb cooldown
i agree with that
smoke bomb is just useless since you can use the marker
i dont see a reason to nerf a already underpowerd neighbor
really pinging the neighbor?
and then say under powered
the box
You might be in a penalty round
mario as a sn class when
passive : if he jumps on people he knocks them down
so i can't play anymore ?
What platform are you on? Like what device
Abd to know if you are in a penalty round or not you can look at the bottom of your screen where it says find game, and it might say "you will be matched with other leavers until you win a round without leaving"
The only way to get a penalty is to leave a match in the middle of the game when you are not dead
its still possible to play but it will take longer to play
whos playing secret neighbor rn?
me]
perfect timing
I am too, annnd i am not good at it lmao
i got in a game and a person has the loudest mic i have ever heard in sn
it made me jump
he sounds like a alarm
Josh?
yeah
the announcement post scared me for like half a second
yea
thought it was about an update
i thought update
and its just tickets
for a platform that doesnt get updated very much
lame
What is the best tactic to overcome the creepy Neighbor? We’d say collaboration.
Invite your friends to Secret Neighbor on Switch to collaborate! Every new player is getting a free Handful of Coupons only this Friday🎫
Grab the treat:
https://t.co/LyvOWUb5V3
now was this the thing that meant in the announcements?
something pop up
if yes then im disappointed
wait only for new players
WHAT
there might be something else given the wording of this, but that might just be my delusions lol
yeah they're not usually that specific
yes sn is getting an update soon
what is today's shop
Only things I thought were interesting was the detective sombrero and the popcorn bagger
How much is the sombrero
1000 coins
The shop made me lose a lot of coins
the shop
i haven't grinded for coins in at least a year i think
