How players send their highlights
Itâs automatic, they choose random person that is currently doing a mission in CIU

Hold on you mean ia is watching im playing mission!?
yes, but iA does not watch your gameplay in realtime, it only records your gameplay if thereâs an epic moment in your mission, and GEN puts it in youtube automatically

So, I get that the Anniversary Mission wonât be recorded by the GEN system, but if and when the other standalone games return in Universe, I believe that they should be eligible for GEN recordings. But, only for the special missions (Supernova, CI5âs Planets, Meteor, etc.) for each game. Having the planet stages in 5U be part of GEN recordings can be a selling point for Universe, as it shows that you can play the other main games within Universe.
If this could be done, then recording the bosses in each standalone game for GEN highlights can be put through afterwards.

https://youtube.com/shorts/HVSCtkmsHPc?si=CoHuuB1fPQNgv4vG this is a solid proof of it, since the first guy on the first clip wasnât even shooting

Oops, thatâs a left-over piece of debug code. Removed.
What, again? Only YouTube has this problem, the other social sites seem to be correct. Anyway, deleted.

Yeah, I noticed that. This was a special-weapon-only wave (no shots were fired), which confused the selection algorithm.

Alright, now iâll suggest in here any changes for GEN, so it can work better, and also make the videos not to appear any âdumbâ moments.
- Video gameplay: I donât have any criticism for the PvP missions (i mean, the competitive mission), except to one thing: The video should add the medals that each players got after each wave. Viewers want to know that did a player receive any medals from that wave, stage or mission; but I prefer the medals for each waves more than the medals for each stages/missions, since we can already know them by ourselves (though there are some medals like â90% coinâ or â90% foodâ and â90% kill ratioâ that we canât know exactly).
Question: Why didnât we see the video gameplay for Space Race, Weekly or Ironman? For Space Race, you can show the result of time flying instead of score. But for Weekly and Ironman, i donât understand why?
- Video hightlight: This is the important thing i want to suggest, since GEN collect a lot of thing from mostly ânewbieâ player, which make the videos not interesting. So here iâll show you the details:
General: I see that GEN also collect a moment that the player are playing that wave in the low difficult (Actually, i donât know exactly where is the difficulty starting from, because i donât see any âfull Chickâ waves). So, GEN should collect the moment from any waves that have difficulty 60% or more. I encourage the moment from the higher difficulty, which can make the video more interesting and attract many people join our games, so they can try to challenge themselves.
Defeat bosses: First of all, if GEN can collect the moment that player defeat a boss in higher difficult, i liked it. But broâŚsometimes i saw they used the helps from Special Weapons and Satelites. Can GEN also not collect any moments that players are using SW/Sate to defeat the boss?
Another thing: Recently, iA has removed âShowâem whoâs bossâ, which i can understand how it trouble. But i wonder that can GEN collect a moment that player defeat 2 or more bosses in a short time? (about 3s, same as how long the âmulti-killâ bonus active) (2 bosses, not 2 enemies)
Death: If you have change the difficulty of the waves that GEN can collect as i explained above, then i have no ideas for this.
Skillful evasion skills: This has a lot of things to say, but i donât know what should i start to say from? But i will try to suggest something. First of all, using SW/Sate isnât allowed to recognize the players as a good evasion skill, especially is Special Weapon. If a player use it to pass any waves, this mean that there is nothing special, i think everyone can understand this. See a moment that how can the players do when there are a lot of enemies/bullets around that player, and thatâs exactly make the viewers have the most interesting. There are also a lot of things for âSkillful evasion skillsâ, but iâll think about this more later.
I also have a suggestion that adding the moment players show their skill in a hard boss (like Yolk, Chicken Exponentiality, Hend Game, MHS, etc⌠and Double Team). Those bosses are very challenging for mostly players.
Multiplayer: No ideas for this. Everyone can be appeared on the short videos, whatever you are doing in a multiplayer rooms.
âEpic/semi-epicâ wave: To make GEN working correctly, can you make GEN only collect the moment players are starting to shoot in those waves. This could be more correctly, so i wonât see any âdumbâ moment like this:
I know in this case, players had used Special Weapon to clean all the enemies in âWhatâs the time?â, except those Armored. Then GEN collect this moment.
Question: For the âepic/semi-epic waveâ moment, do GEN collect the moment players are facing âGatling Wheelâ? In fact, this isnât recognized as a epic wave, because it just the âWheel of Fortuneâ wave with 5 âGatling Peaâ (Chick Gatling Guns) around. Five Chick Gatling Guns and a player is in a narrow space, what will they do in that case? I hope want to see this in the media, since this special wave has become one of the most âepicâ wave that Community knew.
And thatâs all.

IA replied to a suggestion I put in the v144 Thread (down below). I assume that IMs are not recorded for similar reasons.
Races being showcased might happen soon.
So, I noticed two things here. Thereâs a DT being showcased for the first time at the end and some of the boss defeats have a weaker screen shake. Whether thatâs due to GEN code tweaking or they had pro gamer mode on, it feels better.
I also like to suggest a GEN quip: âDone to Order!â. This would pop up if the player successfully completes a long Pecking Order (Tower Defense or the last section of Centipede comes to mind) or multiple short Peckings (Chicks ânâ Chickens is one example for this scenario) in a row.

Instead of recording 2 players in a same time, i think we can only recording one player is enough? 
Weekly, Space race, and Ironman can possibly appear in highlights
Only Space Race for now. IA already said Weekly is disabled. He didnât mention IM, but I assume itâs not recorded.
