I am sad that this isn’t the game we got. At the beginning when they showed that gameplay, it was tense and scary as you knocked over the vase and played with the lock. If I did the same thing in act 3, he would see me, chase me into the street, then go kick some boxes or get stuck in a fence. The Neighbor always works better in these trailers, and I look to them to be happy as opposed to the game we got. I still like the game and the series; it’s one of my favorites. But I can’t deny that I prefer to watch people play the alphas as opposed to beta or full game, even with the bugs and crashing.

"In the idle mode, the neighbour is living his ordinairy life" He watches tv, watches tv, watches tv etc.

who here thought the neighbor's AI was best in alpha 1? I mean I like how the neighbor was in alpha 1. he didn't hang out in the exact room/floor, he was unpredictable without the shaking camera warning and best of all he was slower than the player. that may seem bad to you but to me it evens things out because of the neighbor's traps and objects he threw at you. I'm not saying the AI in the other alphas are bad, but the one made for alpha 1 was in my opinion, the best for an intense and fun experiences.

This is an older video during the Pre-Alpha time of Hello Neighbor. We're publishing some older videos to give you an idea of how development has progressed. Since the Pre-Alpha, Neighbor's AI got much more complicated, and this vid gives you an idea of where it started.

Dont tell me i just saw this dude wash his hands with gloves on

*"He sleeps, eats, swims, watches TV, water flowers, cleans his house, does his morning excercise etc."* Ya sure he swims cuz he dosen't have a pool.

It would be cool if the neighbor greets you if you are at his door or just near by. But when he goes into hunt mode when he sees you he will stare making sure you don't get near. The neighbor could also let you inside of you knock on his door. Then you could search more with out him suspecting but he might follow you some places and if you do something he kicks you out asking you to leave. This would make it more lively and I think it would be a good addition

Is nobody gonna talk about the hammer? Press F to pay respects for the hammer. Old neighbor: I act like a human. New neighbor: What is this "human" you speak of?

I have a suggestion: You should make an alternate version of hello neighbor with another story and old art style

I feel like the AI in the laters alphas were watered down and degraded. Am I the only one that thinks that?

God, the gameplay shown at 0:36 looks (and sounds) so much better than what we have now. What happened, Tinybuild?

I would like to see such a video for the alpha 4. I think that would also be pretty cool

They say he does many things in hes house The actual game : does not care about anything and littarly watches tv 24 hours per day

I think since alpha 2 , neighbor's ai has gone worse and worse. I don't hate the game but it's the truth.

The footage of the Pre Alpha here is absolutely incredible.

The old version was better since the objectives were actually decipherable by a human being.

Why does this Pre Alpha looks much more better than the Pre Alpha we got. I noticed the door has 2 wood blocking it now. And the Neighbor is much mor better in this. Could someone tell me why?

Awesome rundown guys. Really can't wait for this game! By the way what music was playing in the background...sounded so nice.

I don't know if I like how the ai has changed since this pre alpha though. Now he seems to not do idle mode at all. He seems just to patrol around his house and yard all the time.

The Pre-Alpha we all know and love is that the neighbor does not eat drink go to sleep or do anything except watch TV

Heyyy the build shown in the video is just the pre alpha build but changed up a bit so it actually looks like a good AI and to confirm this the sound effect that plays when you are caught is different

Hello Neighbor: Full Release AI Rundown Person: The neighbor has 4 modes: Modes D, U, M, B are the four modes that spell the neighbors ai in a nutshell. This is how our Artificial Intelligence works *outro music plays*

Man, the neighbor back in the day was an artifictial human that actually worked pretty nicely, but now the neighbor is just a skyrim npc 💀

Thanks for making this video. This is the video that actually taught me about Hello Neighbor. Keep up the good work, especially with Secret Neighbor, you rock!!

Are you gonna make a video depicting the history,changes and cut content from the game at some point? cause we would all love that

1:30 He is literally washing his hands with gloves on his hands

Pre alpha: It's a nice start. Alpha 1: Wow that was amazing but short. Alpha 2: Wow that was better but still short. Alpha 3: Cool house but not so interesting AI and took way to long to finish. Alpha 4: Literally the same as alpha 3 but with more crap on top of the house. Beta: Same as alpha 4 and 3 but kind of better. Full release: A mix of all of them and a neat story but the AI is pretty much the same as alpha 3 and alpha 4.

it's better the pre Alpha because the neighbour is much more intelgent and he can cross the road

In the pre-alpha I have experienced him putting cameras and bear traps and buckets and in alpha 1 it’s cooler because it has the elevator and they are really focused about the style of the game

Pre-Alpha was an absolute hell. because not only his AI, ITS HOW THE MUSIC COMES OUT OF NO WHERE.

I say this guide is still half useful, the Neighbour's AI hasn't changed too much over the years but there are a bunch of new stuff in the AI system and so this guide is a perfect way to give the player a tutorial or practice mode even though it can only help make you a pro at the Pre-Alpha

Pre-alpha is very good alpha :)))Please return it back pre-alpha :(

I want this version of the Pre-Alpha, it literally rules

Wow thanks for explaining the mechanism of the neighbor! ;)

I want to have this kind of version, i dunno why.

5:05 wow look, the player has a crouching animation, cool!

I personally like that in the announcement trailer, the player is blocked from entering room by the neighbor blocking the path with tables and chairs. I personally think that this should be in the final build or in the next alpha. But only when he is in attack mode, were there are paths blocked that the player isn't in. This would make the Neighbor more interesting and very difficult. It would be better then just blocking the doors with chairs, that would just only stop the player for only for a second. This too makes the game even more mysterious. Please like if you agree.

He was always smarter, but then the neighbor got insane in build a whole building with 10 storys

I LOVE THE OLD HELLO Neighbor

3:51 coolest part of the early pre alpha

I miss this house and physics

1:35 when he can swim?

This hurts me that they not add this in the pre alpha or even in th egame

0:54 okay that JUMPSCARED ME

Old art style is better

Man all of us are saying that wanted to get the old story back, but we don't remember that there was a kickstarter and if we helped tinyBuildGAMES and Dynamic Pixels in that moment the old art and story and AI would have been back and the way hello neighbor was before would ended up! So unfortunately the way that the old art and story didn't came back is because of our fault.

Impressive work,can't wait to see various KZfaqrs like 8-BitRyan,IGP and others play the full version in Augest!

Why couldn't Pre-Alpha be just like this? Why couldn't this be what Hello Neighbor is today? I just don't understand why they changed it. But I'm glad they kept the alphas free and playable on steam. Edit: Well, Pre-Alpha Is sort of like this, but it just isn't as "properly working" I don't know.

Does everything in Russian have opposite meanings? They said the AI got better, it got worse. In the old alphas the neighbour used to cut you off, do daily things instead of always hunt for you, and notice moved objects. They said the art style got better. It didn’t, it looked like a kids cartoon game instead of a stealth horror game, which is what they were going for. They should’ve kept the old art style. Also, where was the really creepy ambient music when you went in the neighbours house in Pre Alpha? They removed that in the final version which annoyed me. It made the game more scarier.

Love watching these old Hello Neighbor videos!

Why does this look like an updated Pre-Alpha? Like he is using animations that were starting to be used from Alpha 2. And the lighting looks nicer on the bulbs.

Sadly, the AI in the more recent updates doesn't do half of this stuff. He doesn't do his daily routine, he doesn't even block doors or board windows :/

(Wearing gloves) (Washes hands)

The announcement trailer version has to be the BEST version in my opinion

You: *sitting there as you watch the Neighbor wash his hands with gloves on...*

this video helped me with my own game-play in hello neighbour i realised some of the AI has changed by some of the explanations here are still valid

The neighbor used to know exactly where you were... even if you were hiding and not in his line of sight.

Idle mode the neighbor is living his ordinary life he watches tv and you know..he kidnaps kids all that stuff

Pre - alpha tge best! 1,3, and 4... He`s very unrealy, pre-alpha and 2 Alpha cool, but pre, the best!!! Простите за мой английский 😊

I love playing this game and watching how the neighbour works is even more interesting

ngl, this ai is better then the first and second games.

They need to go into Beta, it's starting to shape into a full game

just so you know guys, this version contains pretty much all of prototype things included sounds, animations etc. but there are many new more new unused things in this compared to the prototype

If only the final game looked and had these mechanics, I remember when I was a kid trying to find this version of the game because it looked so much better than the final version. Tiny Build if you see my comment please update Hello Neighbor to look like this.

Also the neighbor does not really do much in idle mode... He rarely even goes into in the main game. He's always doing his main thing - trying to protect his basement and keep people out of his house.

I wish they kept the old art style

Where was this AI in the final product?! The Neighbor just b-lines towards you he didn’t try to cut you off

When the AI was actually extremely advanced and not spoofed and dumb like the full release.

Man nostalgia also forgot the music that plays when he sees you was like that every time

It's sad how this project got trashed, it'd have made a fantastic game.

I like the older version better because it looked like a normal house. Which made it creepy

In Pre Alpha Neighbor wasn't so smart like in the video.

Now we are going to talk about the attack mo- *dies*

You Guys should make it where there is a game mode where another player can play as the neighbor and hunt the the other player down of course you would also have to make a objective as well if you do this.

You should make it so he can place a specific amount of cameras because at one point it's basically impossible to hide

error in subtitles at 2:48 It means, that if you once hide yourself in the wardrobe, the neighbor will *nor* probably

Hello Neighbor blew me away! Love your game!❤❤

Is true, that game comes out in Q1 2018?

Man, the older builds were so much better.

I got questions: Why did Hello Neighbor switch from Realistic and dark to Bright and Cartoony? what happened between alpha 1 and alpha 2? also you maybe did not notice it but there's an player model in pre alpha, in alpha 1 its gone, in alpha 2 and since the player model changed and got more advanced and detailed. Great Game tinyBuildGAMES :D (i would love to get replied answers)

I have never seen him do any of those things besides watching TV and setting traps and putting water over the door that goes through the door inside the pre-alpha

When I got the pre Alpha, and went through the from door, there wasn't a blue lamp, vase by tv room, and cameras(well, except on the desk by the upside down room). Is this a testing ground or another version of the pre Alpha that people can't get, like the announcement trailer? Just wondering.

The early Pre-Alpha AI is so smart, even smarter then Pre Alpha to Full release.

Question: Why wasn't this version if the pre alpha released? Obviously, it had the advanced air in it. The things your talking about are in alpha 1. He sets so many bear traps and cameras in that version. Also, the only time I've ever seen the Neighbor 'physically' set traps was in the alpha 2, which was changed from the better one to the worse. Also, the pre alpha neighbor never got more complicated. It's the same, old, super fast neighbor who goes everywhere. Hmmm what else am I missing. Ah yes! The announcement trailer. That was probably going to be the original pre alpha. Looked like the same design. The only 'good' thing about the pre Alpha is the puzzles. There a bit fun and challenging. In the normal pre alpha, I've never seen the Neighbor wash his hands, or do his exercises. I haven't seen him physically hammer boards on a window, or set traps with an animation in pre alpha. It's pre but the announcement trailer seems like the full game. Also, for the Russian company, I will translate this entire paragraph. This is a big comment. Vopros: Pochemu eta versiya ne byla vypushchena do versii? Ochevidno, v nem byl peredovoy vozdukh. To, o chem vy govorite, nakhoditsya v al'fa-1. V etoy versii on ustanavlivayet tak mnogo lovushek i kamer. Krome togo, yedinstvennyy raz, kogda ya kogda-libo videl fizicheski ustanovlennyye lovushki soseda, byl v al'fe 2, kotoryy byl izmenen s luchshego na khudshiy. Krome togo, pre-al'fa-sosed nikogda ne uslozhnyalsya. Eto tot samyy, staryy, super bystryy sosed, kotoryy idet povsyudu. Khmmm, chto yeshche mne ne khvatayet. O da! Reklamnyy treyler. Veroyatno, eto budet original'naya pre-al'fa. Pokhozhe na tot zhe dizayn. Yedinstvennaya «khoroshaya» veshch' v pre-al'fe - eto golovolomki. Tam nemnogo veselo i slozhno. V obychnoy pre-al'fe ya nikogda ne videl, chtoby Sosed stiral ruki ili delal uprazhneniya. YA ne videl, chtoby on fizicheski zabival doski na okne ili ustanavlival lovushki s animatsiyey v pre alpha. Eto pre, no treyler ob"yavleniya kazhetsya polnoy igroy. Krome togo, dlya rossiyskoy kompanii ya perevedu ves' etot paragraf.

this version of the game was much much better than the final release

in my opinion i think the ai rundown is better than the prototype

but guys see when you have unlocked the basment the neighbor doesnt just sit there, he eats, sleeps, takes baths, cleans, waters his flowers, and if you move an item he will go in hunt mode (But only if you have unlocked the basement (Pre alpha btw)

is this like pre alpha but much better lol

And the pre alpha we got in idle- he watches tv,watches tv and oh ya watches tv

Can you Please release the announcement trailer version?, Like so Tinybuild can see!! :)

The bear trap design in the little preview near the beginning was really nice.

After watching this video, beating Hello neighbor looks impossible.

I wish they kept it like this

what went wrong

a great video from a great game creator

Anyone else notice the grave behind the players house at 0:13? It's probably reference to the alpha one ending...

😍😍if only the AI was like this in the final release.

I think the neighbours Ai is the most interesting part of the game In my opinion

I hope that the neighbor will only discover you more often in a spot if he catches you there.

I never knew it started like that.
