Identity V: how to coordinate decryption and rescue of survivors

In a typical asymmetrical game, four survivors need to cooperate against a hunter, decipher the machines and open the exit. The pursuit, decryption and assistance to the ally must add up to the overall plan.

Learn the role of the chosen character

Before the match, read the survivor's abilities and restrictions on his actions. Different characters are suitable for different tasks, so the general scheme does not negate the characteristics of the hero. For your first attempts, choose someone whose ability you can use consciously. In training, check the interaction with the machine and the command messages so that in a match you spend less time searching for the right button.

Separate work and chase information

While part of the team deciphers, information about the hunter's position helps assess the safety of the areas. Briefly report the pursuit and the nearest direction, without demanding that everyone immediately come running to you. If you are free, see what task you can continue now. Constant movement without decoding can drag out the match even with several successful evasions from the hunter.

Coordinate assistance before simultaneous exit

If an ally needs rescue, assess the distance, the character's condition, and the possible path back. If possible, agree on who helps and who continues on with another task. Multiple survivors quitting their jobs at the same time without a plan can create a comfortable situation for the hunter. When preparing for assistance, look ahead at the surrounding passages and where you can continue moving after the interaction.

Check the final goal, not just the current battle

After opening the path to the exit, give a clear signal and assess the position of the other participants. Wanting to come back for any encounter doesn't always help you finish the match. For analysis, choose the moment where the team lost consistency: an unnecessary rescue, lack of decoding, or the wrong route. Identity V's special modes have their own rules and may differ from the four versus one scheme.
