Ngọc Trinh

Ngọc Trinh is an exclusive female character only available in CF Vietnam.

Overview[]

She is based on the real-life celebrity Ngọc Trinh, serving as a Vietnamese covert-ops for the V.A.C.F (Vietnam-Asia Covert Force). Ngọc Trinh appears to wear a blue female cop uniform (GR) and a jungle bikini set (BL) - much like FOX, she has no advantage of light equipment nor disadvantage of suffering higher damage due to lack of protection. She also features a unique Vietnamese voice which is exclusive to players using her and comes with the reduced smoke effect (stackable with its counterpart item).

Skilled features[]

20% EXP bonus.
Reduced smoke effect.
Exclusive kill sounds.

Trivia[]

Ngọc Trinh is the first exclusive celebrity character, later followed by Mocha.
Unlike the majority of many other characters, Ngọc Trinh is featured in the Item Shop instead of the Black Market, it is likely intended to give players a chance to own her at a set price. However, due to her skilled features, she is priced much higher than any other character in CF Vietnam (second only to VVIP characters).
- After the 15th of October 2020 update, the appearance of Orchid-Seaside and FOX-Seaside made her not the only skilled character to be sold directly in CF Vietnam.
- Before CF Vietnam's 1208 patch is released, Ngọc Trinh is featured as the top prize in the Treasure Box web event, leading to people thinking that she would be hard to obtain in-game. Some players spent more money than her actual cost to open boxes instead of buying her in the Item Shop and still failed to win her.
- Later, Ngọc Trinh can be obtained at a much lower cost via events. It's speculated that, since her smoke reduction effect has been nerfed, she's been made cheaper to match the nerf. Some "Spending Cash" events allow players to get a character just for 159 or 169 Vcoin and Ngọc Trinh is one of them. This allows players to own her permanently for a very cheap price. These events were later shut down, however.
In the rez files, Ngọc Trinh is called VN Wild. The reason for this weird naming is unclear, although it's Tencent's tradition to misspell names in a different language.
Ngọc Trinh's voice file is located in Snd2/Vietnamese instead of VietnameseWoman. It can be assumed that CF Vietnam won't be releasing any male soldier with Vietnamese kill sounds, so Ngọc Trinh will occupy the Vietnamese folder instead of VietnameseWoman.
- Like any character with exclusive voice pack, in Mutation Mode variants, if she gets infected and successfully kills a Hero, her killsound will be used despite being a mutant. However, if she turns into Commando, Nemesis and other special characters, the default killsound will be used instead.
Due to careless editing, Ngọc Trinh's preview image (BL) does not have 100% transparency and some noises can still be seen (demonstrated above).
It's speculated that Ngọc Trinh will be CF VN-exclusive, since VTC spent over $30.000 to secure her trademark within CF Vietnam, far more than any other Black Market weapons and characters. This doesn't mean Tencent or other big publishers out there could not afford that price, but they still need to obtain permission from Ngọc Trinh's Agency first.
- In CF China's January 2023 patch however, picture of Ngọc Trinh suddenly showed up in pre-beta test patch, listed under VVIP Character tab, which confused a lot of players and led to rumors that Ngọc Trinh would become the next VVIP character, given her unique skill (Smoke reduction) that no other VVIP Characters had. It was later confirmed that this was just a placeholder image for a new VVIP character that wasn't revealed at the time of pre-beta test.
After 1278 Patch in CF Vietnam, there was a glitch that makes this character in the loading screen transform to Orchid Summer. This has been fixed in later patches.
