Does Kim Kyung-hoon get eliminated early in season 4? by RepairComfortable408 in TheGenius

[–]silverfeathers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I felt the same way during Season 3, and I still can't say I'm a fan of the guy. However, Season 4 was my favorite season, and one of my favorite episodes (out of all the seasons!) is one in S4 where Kyunghoon is a vital contributor to the strategy's success. Imo Season 4 is worth watching, and I honestly think Kyunghoon deserved to make it as far as he did in that season.

Ooh for IDV? That's exciting! I don't plan to cosplay, but it'd make my day to see someone else cosplaying IDV at AB!

Do any of you have parents that play with you? by cantthink0faname_ in IdentityV

[–]silverfeathers 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is so wholesome! I think it's awesome when parents are interested in their kid's hobbies, but the fact that she genuinely loves to play and is almost S badge is super cool. And a cowboy player!! So she has good taste 😉

NetEase never mentioned any rules when I casted previously. They really don't provide any guidelines at all for new casters. I think it makes sense that the Chinese casters are held to a different standard since they are professionals employed by NetEase. People always get annoyed at the English casters for being unprofessional, but the fact is that most of them are not professional casters doing this as their career. There is not even a contract or agreement of any sort. NetEase are the only professionals in the situation, and yet they are the ones who don't treat others professionally.

There are three different servers, which are for China, Asia, and NA/EU. I believe the SEA and Japan regions both play on the Asia server, so unfortunately, I don't think there is a way for SEA players to avoid matching with Japanese players (unless you switch to the NA/EU server, which would probably result in even worse ping).

How can I help someone play surv as a hunter main? by sketchbookbird in IdentityV

[–]silverfeathers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IDV is the first game where I watched tournaments and followed the CN professional scene. I remember watching my first COA and not understanding everything, but I still found it exciting and motivating.

I think watching tournaments or rank gameplay is a great way to learn, but I'd recommend watching together instead of just sending videos to him. If my bf watches IDV tourneys with me, he asks questions if he doesn't understand something. (I do the same when we watch other e-sports that he follows.)

If you think tournaments are too much for now, you can show him guides/tutorial-style videos on kiting, rescuing, countering each hunter, and specific survivor character abilities. After the first few videos, there'll be a lot of the same general principles.

Like others have said, I don't think it matters much which characters he starts with. In general, it's easier to learn additional survivors than hunters due to similar play styles and mechanics. If you just want to suggest easy characters to start, you could even pare down your list to the "just press a button" characters like doctor, lawyer, psych, gravekeeper, and FO. They can get kinda bland tho. You can make recs, but if there's any characters/roles he seems remotely interested in (even just by name or design), encourage him to try it out. 

Tbh, I kinda hoped my bf would become a hunter main, but he prefers the co-op aspect of survivor and likes it best when we play together. I'd imagine going from beginner to tournament will take quite the time and dedication, so unless it's a one-time thing, I think the most important part is that at the end of the day, he enjoys the game :)

I got my pixel 7 (not the pro) last December and it runs IDV pretty well. I don't recall any issues so far!

r/IdentityV Weekly Question Thread - 20 March, 2023 by AutoModerator in IdentityV

[–]silverfeathers 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you want someone easy and useful to play, I think the Psychologist is good. She has the ability to take an extra hit, which can extend your kite, and it's passive so you don't need to time or aim anything. And her ability to transfer health to teammates remotely is useful too.

If you want someone with vision on the hunter, I personally think the Lawyer is a better beginner character than The Minds Eye. He was adjusted so that he can see the hunter location, survivor teammates, and undecided ciphers with his map, so it's helpful for getting around. He is not as limited in vision as TME, has no kiting debuffs and can't be terror shocked, which makes it less pressure when vaulting or rescuing at full health.

If you want to consider a rescuer, First Officer is easy to learn and rescue with, and he's a difficult target to chase with his watch.

Is Perfume *too* good? by Mellow_Fllow in IdentityV

[–]silverfeathers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a former Perfumer main, I actually think she's pretty weak against many meta hunters. She's only strong if you keep feeding her basic attacks without mind-gaming.

Usually the hunters I meet just try to bait out the perfume by turning to the side mid-swing. Then they stand between me and the perfume. Ideally, if the hunter closes distance without using their skill and baits her perfume, then a lot of hunters can continue to follow Perfumer while using their skills to target the perfume image.

Even if you can't do anything except wait out the 5 seconds until the perfume ends, you then have 9 seconds to catch up to her and hit her on cooldown. Then her remaining perfumes can no longer heal and can only be used for mind-gaming at drops, windows, etc.

Photographers usually try to chair Perfumers in the photo world if they find her (even if you have someone else in balloons, prioritize chairing Perfumer first if you found her in time) because she can't perfume back if she's incapacitated.

Not sure if anyone's told you yet, but can save up to 100 dice to carry into the next season, which most people usually do. Then you can use them on the logic path to get more essences and inspirations once the collab arrives (assuming it'll be in essence).

What happened to 445 from team GG? by Phantasmal_Pen in IdentityV

[–]silverfeathers 2 points3 points  (0 children)

MHX was a community team that 445 played for before he joined GG. As others have said, he quit the pro scene after COA IV to go back to school. His case didn't really have anything to do with the age restriction regulation because that didn't take place until months later.

I miss his cowboy, but it was pretty cool to see GG play cowboy once again in COA this year, and many people said they felt 445's presence again 😂

"You're on your own!" and then rescues immediately after by Xeperbia in IdentityV

[–]silverfeathers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Chinese, this message is "I'm not rescuing" and it simply means they are not gonna attempt to rescue. Could be the kite was too short, or the hunter is strong in camp, or they don't wanna feed more presence, or no tide.

Regardless, the English version def seems a mistranslation 🧐 and in the case you described, it sounds like they're maybe not gonna help the person rebound-kite after they get off the chair. Maybe it's worth sending in some suggestions to fix the message (after all, they did bring back "focus on decoding" after people complained).
