Outlast Trials: Final Exam A+ | Solo | Hardest trial | Program X | Kill the Snitch

[@ordinaryfiver4403]

your commentary is actually really entertaining, capturing the frustration of the trials it self

[@happyheart]

thank u for saying that! and yea the enemy AI can be really frustrating lmao

[@Chr1ms0nn]

Average player encountering any antagonist: *screaming while running* Happyheart encountering them: "grow up"

[@happyheart]

i cannot be put at fault! they are immature

[@coolinalnite]

I feel like this game could have potential for 1-4 player speedruns, to really emphasize teamwork and improvised strategy, despite rng being a thing

[@happyheart]

a lot of people are already speedrunning, i think! it does sound fun but also a little annoying to deal with the rng

[@Kirkzeus]

you're talented man don't stop playing love seeing good players still playing outlast

[@happyheart]

thanks! i'll keep at it

[@itsyaboi7417]

The frequent “grow up” is the funniest shit ever

[@drgippy]

You're a god level gamer. Super impressive

[@happyheart]

thanks!

[@FrostDidThatShit]

[@happyheart]

yes they are! so fun that i will not play them again i think

I think this guy might be THE outlast trials player of all time

He is a very good Trials player along with a few others. You might also enjoy watching Kotzwurst and JasonK if you want to see flawless gameplay and godlike speedruns.

[@malloydelta9404]

The old program x was insane pain

[@pisspls]

usually im dead silent when im playing this game because im 100% concentrated and my heart feels like its gonna beat out of my chest but every so often i scream

[@happyheart]

this game is extremely tense so i understand what u are saying completely and i also understand what u are saying completely

[@thisiswhatido8920]

Every time you said grow up I died 😂😂😂great content man

[@happyheart]

thank U!

[@solarus7828]

When this game first came out, this was the first trial the game threw me and my friend into. We ended up quitting the game because we thought, if this was the first trial, god knows what comes after. Now, a year + later, and i come to find this is the hardest trial? 😊😊😊

[@happyheart]

nah they made a ton of changes and overhauls to the difficulty system and UI and everything. nowadays if you play this trial on Introductory difficulty its one of the easiest trials in the game but because difficulty settings actually exists nowadays, any trial on Introductory is super super super easy. its great for new players

[@squishthefirst9195]

I did test it, carrying heavy objects and standing does make a very small amount of more sound than crouching.

[@happyheart]

do you have the prescription that increases mobility when carrying heavy objects? cause i did this run before i had that prescription, and after i got it, i learned that the extra mobility means extra sound too

[@AldaLC]

Nice run! i would be so scared, that's why i ain't even trying D:

[@happyheart]

conquer your fear! the worst you can do is Die (in game)

[@emilyjane6088]

Failed 5 times at this - solo AND multiplayer. Amazing job dude teach me your ways.

you got it next time dw! i make gameplay guide soon but i have so much content to work through that idk what video to make first LMAO

[@emilyjane6088]

@@happyheart aw there’s no hurry! Looking forward to the guide!!

[@joan.flores_]

The "screamer" has to be nerf. Like u can still move but slower, just don't let you move. Is a bad and frustating mechanic.

[@happyheart]

yes, the screamer is the most dangerous enemy in the entire game. so what if mother gooseberry runs fast, we can run faster. get screamed on = can't move = gg!

[@spidermonkey2903]

I've been group finding for about an hour now and the program x's final exam is the last thing I have to do to reborn. I'm thinking of doing it solo but I am absolutely petrified xD

[@Box_of_Octopus]

Very well done my good sir, if you had to think, which one of the trials was Obnoxious to clear? (in general) and for what reason?, do you think its easier done in Co-op? or Solo?

[@happyheart]

thanks! Bad Apples Naked and Afraid from Program X seriously sucked because i had to play so carefully. took 42 minutes iirc i prefer solo so i dont have to feel indebted to anyone and can play as selfishly as i want. but i imagine co-op is a far easier experience if u have 3 highly skilled teammates

[@FrostDidThatShit]

Bad apples is a pain in the ass bro….. finding them damn pipes is sooooooo ass

[@utterash]

How does your rig recharge battery?

[@alexanderpalafox5355]

insane play man

[@happyheart]

[@meat.]

blind rig makes the final part a breeze it’s too op

[@happyheart]

yea im handicapping myself using stunrig for these objectives but also it's so chill to have vs sleepscreamer

[@Atimoz]

how are you not scared ? it's been two days and I struggle to finish the introduction

[@happyheart]

idk i was in Hell during the 7 months between closed beta ending and now, and in that time i must have watched 50+ playthroughs of closed beta police station. i learned the fundamental gameplay mechanics that way and got a little desensitized to the fear aspect of it all

[@archaon2875]

watch walkthroughs and familiarize yourself with the layout of the maps, the objectives, how the players hide or use their items/rigs etc. You wont be scared that much anymore since you know what to do. Introduction is the easiest, you just need to be stealthy or fast depending on the situation. Time your movements right especially during the climax when the prime asset shows up.

[@Atimoz]

@@archaon2875 yes I grew a pair and finished it

[@archaon2875]

@@Atimoz congrats! once you are familiar with all the stuff in the game and how the enemies, traps, and your items work itll be easy. Once you have unlocked stuff later on all of the trials can be trivial at most. i mean most of the time its easier to complete them solo when you can since randoms are problematic to play with.

[@hasaiid]

i dno how people arent scared to be honest. i let my boy carry me no homo .whhile i enjoy the parkour experience.

[@mistahwhoop7938]

I'm on this mission currently, closest I got to was pushing the snitch into the execution area at the end. So damn difficult for me, you make it look so easy lol

[@happyheart]

do not feel bad! it is very hard

[@mistahwhoop7938]

I managed to do it with 2 other randoms, very hectic at the end but managed to get it😂 Also a good technique I found for getting to the first security room at the start is to get full psychosis and just full sprint to the room. Not sure if its the play for speed running but its pretty effective

[@alvitesy7455]

At the start you can run through all of the enemies to get to the security office even with the screamer there you can run right through

[@happyheart]

no way! maybe with noise reduction but similarly i learned you can run straight out of the security room, pure sprinting you can pass the giant that spawns without him detecting you and get to the snitch for free

[@robertcaulfield3167]

First attempt on program x took me 114 minutes 😂😂 got a C 💀

[@jf5179]

Your commentary is fineeee

[@happyheart]

thank U for saying this

[@CanyonALynn]

Despite this being out for only a few days... you took little time to understand the mechanics of the game and mastering it. Despite IMO Red Barrels making this game almost impossible to playthrough solo.

[@happyheart]

thanks! but it is not as hard as you might think. i hope to release a gameplay guide soon that will show you that

The x25 soundtrap is a bug, I've gotten it multiple times when only triggering one or two.

yea, i just uploaded my playthrough on it. it is very difficult

[@zach2791]

at 31:30 i was wandering how you were looking behind you while you were electrocuting the snitch is that a mechanic that you can do or are you just able to turn your mouse enough to see behind you?

that game was released 2-4 days ago (if don't count beta) and there already so good players? HOW??

[@happyheart]

i watched a TON of playthroughs during closed beta, not to mention i had practice from playing Outlast 1, Whistleblower, and Outlast 2 multiple times each. thanks!

[@Tuco_Salamanca3]

They’re probably the hardcore gamers. There are many games like this for people to practice. The better they get, the easier it is to get used to new games. Which is why they fly through every new game they play. It’s pretty cool to see

[@benxxn]

Does the sound trap not affect the personal grade? Is it because of the skill?

[@happyheart]

it does affect the grade, even when you have slippers. but if you do a lot of good stuff (listed as black text in grade report) it can counteract a lot of the bad stuff (red text, like triggering noise traps) so u can maintain high grade

[@AussieAlex]

Hey idk if you are still reading these comments but do you have a quick turn button? I’ve been trying to find it in the settings to no avail

[@happyheart]

the quick-turn is listed as the same keybinds as 'peek left' and 'peek right.' but it only functions as a quick-turn when running or doing objectives like pouring gas into generator

[@AussieAlex]

@@happyheart thanks a lot dude I had no idea

[@ItIsStep]

what how do you look behind while running? i dont see that keybinding in settings

[@rabdizzle_]

it's Q or E to look behind while running!

[@baut1]

any advice on completing it solo? No friends to help me out, its the only trial I've got left to release an agent

[@happyheart]

go as slow as you need. some of the hardest trials, i just crouch-walked everywhere. because even if the sound indicator says you're safe, i think enemies slowly converge to your location if you're walking or running stun rig is best for solo play imo. make sure to get all your upgrades. 9/9 + 7/7 prescriptions, Slippers, Cacophony, Strongarm are your amps electrocuting the snitch, you have to drag at least one enemy way away from the electrocution chamber. go for a long run. that way you have a lot less pressure on you during electrocution get REALLY good at closing doors behind you while on the run. buys you an enormous amount of time

[@baut1]

@@happyheart thanks man, a couple of randoms carried me through the trial yesterday. I love this game but I hope in full release they upscale the solo difficulty more accurately, it takes three times more time and effort to go about it solo than to play with people, and mind you, the randoms that helped me where like level 10 who I constantly had to revive, but still when there is other people it makes it so much easier

[@xdragon4704]

So wait, what the use of that master key for?? Is that allowed you to unlock a lockpick chest without play that mini game thing??

how you dash like in 12:58 bro

the ability to slide is a prescription you can buy from the pharmacist

[@adrenn]

how do you look behind?

its a keybind in settings. settings > controls > keybinds (customize) > peek left and peek right, these are the same keybinds as looking behind, but only when running
