[@frkatona]

General thoughts: - the video processing and text animation effects were effective and not terribly over-done/gimmicky (except for that one ‘mechanical keyboard,’ ‘one-key-at-a-time’ part which was slow) - use all-caps more conservatively and consistently, keep color schemes restrained, and add some subtle stroke, glow, and/or back-shadow to your text overlay to keep it readable (e.g., 5:21) - the terms “sound checkspots,” “TR reading,” and “HB reading” get thrown around. I’d try to establish the best sounding one early and stick to it (I’m partial to “TR-reading”) Intro/definition section: - could be more direct/succinct and also it felt weird to all-caps emphasize ‘precisely’ when it’s not really - it was helpful demonstrating how line of sight doesn’t influence TR audio Chapter 1 (Terror radius basics): - would’ve been helpful to point to the specific elements of the audio that intensify most dramatically. Like how at far distances, the slow bassy horn is prominent, THEN the constant bass-y spiccato strings grow, and FINALLY those higher “impact” strings swoop in. Of course it’s different for each killer’s music, but first of all that’s probably helpful to mention. Secondly, I bet each one follows similar rules (i.e., there are ~3 separate sections that build one-at-a-time) and then imagine how cool it would be to establish at what distances a new musical element appears to ultimately be able to say something like “when the last element is as loud as the first, the killer is within lunge distance." To be clear, idk if that's how it works, but if so and you had a video breaking it down, that'd be a sick resource. Game: - what you were getting at here makes sense on paper (demonstrate how that little bit of added awareness results in meaningful distance), but you had just primed us to listen for subtle audio cues and so it felt distracting and frustrating Chapter 2 (“usage”) intro: - although I liked all the images and pacing in isolation, the name of this section made them feel confusing. I would’ve just called this section “TR-reading on medium-to-large tiles” to establish the relevance. - And instead of just slow zooming in on the final example that you were going to start with, I would have included the text “let’s start with Pallet Gyms” or maybe pin each little MS-paint tile and its name in the corner of the screen while you were running it Chapter 3 (“problems”): - rename to something like “TR mind-gaming for advanced killers” Why it works: - I thought this section was awesome. You can tell exactly what you mean and so that low-budget screen recording vibe just makes it feel stylish Chapter 4 (“Killer noises”) I thought all this information was super helpful as well. I would have just mentioned explicitly at the start that these noises are more for direction than distance since you had focused on gauging distance the rest of the video

I have 4500 hours on the game, and am a decently experienced 1v1 player and I still throughly enjoyed this video, and the demonstrations were all well put together. Love to see experienced players make videos like this.

I never thought, that sound plays such a big role in dbd, thank you for sharing this ! I always thought I can hear certain killers better, if I can focus on sound - spirit, ghosty, myers's breathing, but I didn't think about in a wider perspective !

[@chezcakthemanlyjake155]

I have 7500 and only play pubs mainly survivor. I don’t feel like I’ve actually improved in like 2000 hours and this was mind blowing. Finally a video that breaks it down enough for a silly goose like me. Thank you so much. Amazing video that was very easy to follow even without you talking. There is now hope I can start to improve again 😭. Great job again.

[@yosegi2826]

very good video, i hopefully next video can go into more advanced hb reading mindgames and tiles like logs. Also would LOVE to see a mention about hb reading is much easier inside of chase and it is much harder to do outside of chase but still possible, and maybe give examples.

[@votzybo]

i'd say my weakest place, skill wise, for dbd is tr reading / understanding; and it's because it is never really talked about. This video taught me so much, I feel how I did when I first started learning about this game. Thank you so much. I am greatly looking forward to newer videos

[@angrycat2789]

2.4k hours here. I never payed too much attention to tr and hb sound until I got basement stairs mindgamed at shack, lol. After that, I started paying more attention, but I never could figure it out quite well, specially at pallet gyms. But know I understand it better, and perhaps more importantly I'm aware of what counters tr reading. However, something I still have trouble with, is actually putting it into practice, I have trouble breaking chase and consequently I almost never got to apply it and ended up leaving tr/hb reading in the "useless to me and only useful to top player" category.

[@Fabraa]

@@angrycat2789 If you don't know how to break chase is not as useful, I understand that it can seem very "unrealistic" since I'm getting chased without chase music, anyways it still has it's utilities and I'll solve your breaking chase problems in the near future ;). Once u know both mechanics and can combine them ur chase will be twice as good

[@angrycat2789]

@@Fabraa Thank you very much kind sir for the reply and for the video, please do the video on breaking chase, I'll slam the like button. I've tried to break chase on shack, long/short wall gyms, pallet gyms, but I've been very inconsistent, fillers are easy once the pallet has been dropped, you just hold check spots and walk, but you don't need to tr/hb read there cause you're watching the killer the whole time.

[@banan6216]

Does this still work when you're in chase? I know you should always try to break chase in these loops where you can heartbeat read since there's usually very good line of sight blockers but should you be in chase and in the process of getting out of it, are you still able to heartbeat read? I'd imagine you still can, it's just a bit harder since there's more audio clutter but I'm not sure since I have never tested it. If anyone knows please tell me.

[@Fabraa]

It's a very hard thing that few people know about, I'll be doing a video since is hard to explain in a comment

[@Guif101]

what about killers with 24m terror radius and Wesker, who has a 40m terror radius, the range when the music/heartbeat changes would be different, right?

[@Fabraa]

If the tr is smaller the difference is even bigger so its easier, for killers like wesker is harder but still can do it

[@antoniomillanlopez1932]

[@anivia1t318]

Great video, but would have preferred having no music during the clips. It makes it harder to listen to the changes in heartbeat.

[@tailznomercy]

W video fabra never really knew how to hb/tr read correctly but when the pallet is down at jungle why not use the window? Wouldn’t u get more use out of the jg structure?

[@Fabraa]

@@tailznomercy Window side is not 100% safe, if you are in chase and have bad timing on some checkspots you could get hit, if killer has bloodlust it becomes really unsafe, exize has a jgym video where he explains window side a little bit, check it if I didn't solve ur problem ;)

Can you show us how to deal with the Nurse effectively? It would be interesting to see how someone with your skill set would handle a Nurse in chase, who plays at the highest level. I swear there are Nurse players who can calculate every possible option a survivor has, and get a hit/down for anything that they do. Personally, I try my hardest not to be predictable- and I still get downed easily. No matter how random I am. Breaking line of sight only delays the inevitable because she closes distance so quickly and is right on top of me; and not in a way I want a nurse on top of me.
