turning on a flashlight during a hunt

[ivory urchin]

best way to test it is the flashlight test

you hear it's footsteps almost at the same time your lights flicker

[sly forge]

Its like old but with more rooms on the left and back yard and third floor

[heady flint]

here is this better

[ivory urchin]

10m for the flashlights to flicker, 12m for you to hear mylings @humble geyser

[hidden anchor]

Tbh i just use parabolic and if it does a crap ton of noises i guess myling

[ivory urchin]

ok that's ok

[humble geyser]

it’s difficult to test for noise frequency on parabolic

[ivory urchin]

are the locations of hiding places the same?

[white pivot]

eh I don't find that reliable tbh

[heady flint]

this is one of my favorite fishing photos to use as an avatar cuz i hate having my irl face shown

[sly forge]

Hmmm i dont think so

[white pivot]

I only use parabolic for
completing an objective
finding the ghost on a large map
testing for banshee

[ivory urchin]

considering there's a small chance to get parab noises, and the myling only makes the chances for it to happen at least 2x the normal ghosts, yea it is very unreliable for myling

[humble geyser]

neither, ive had 4 parabolic noises within a minute and it ended up being a banshee (no it didnt do the scream, thats another reason i thought myling)

[heady flint]

banshee scream is only like 33% chance or something

[hidden anchor]

I‘ve had like 90% success rate so far. Myling does a sound every like 15-25 seconds its pretty noticeable when you compare it to another ghost‘s noise frequency

[ivory urchin]

close enough. 1/6 (kidding)

[white pivot]

19% chance of 4 noises without screams

[heady flint]

i always forget every chance for obake fingies/banshee/whatever is different

[austere ginkgo]

33% chance on the alr like 25% chance of the paramic activating

[humble geyser]

if para noises had a set interval and mylings just halved the time between it, parabolic would be so much better for testing them

[ivory urchin]

1/3 is correct and the chance to get noises on parabolic is hella low

for me i usually say test and wait 6 times before it screams just in case you are unlucky

[pliant grail]

Guys, Need some help with apocalipse trophy lol

[humble geyser]

i didnt say it was impossible, i just said it was super unlikely

[hidden anchor]

I must be like super lucky with the parabolic then

[humble geyser]

dont try and go quickly, if youre not patient, youll die early from a stupid mistake

[heady flint]

ive never gotten banshee scream despite testing every time i can, and ive gotten deo once

[white pivot]

1/5 is not super unlikely

[pliant grail]

is there a place to hide?

[high oxide]

Sure is

[heady flint]

no

[white pivot]

depends, what is hiding spots set to

[high oxide]

Bottom of the stairs

[heady flint]

you just die

its impossible no ones ever done it

[humble geyser]

bro i thought it was a myling because it did 4 noises in a minute…banshee wasnt even on my radar considering how many noises i heard

[odd vale]

Heya, Polar

[humble geyser]

so many people have done it bruh

[white pivot]

burger

[heady flint]

no ones ever done it

[vagrant ocean]

is there somewhere i can see all the cursed object locations

[turbid lance]

the cheat sheet in #fan-creations is up to date

[ivory urchin]

hai folar, what is your most favorite ghost type? (pls be hantu)

[humble geyser]

as in apocalypse 3 sunny meadows challenge?

[heady flint]

not a single person

[humble geyser]

phasmo wiki has all the locations for all the maps

[white pivot]

cheat sheet is much easier to read

[humble geyser]

true yeah, wiki is very wordy

[high oxide]

Hantu is near the top of the list! Deo because duh, obake for the shapeshifts, and wraith because he saved me from walking in gold apoc

[white pivot]

what?

[vagrant ocean]

@turbid lance thanks, i actually forgot about that site, been a while since i played

[high oxide]

It’s midnight EST

[pliant grail]

that's the one I'm trying

[humble geyser]

…peep reddit brother, there’s a new “I FINALLY DID APOC3” post every day

[white pivot]

standard time?

[high oxide]

Whatever

You knew what I meant lol

[humble geyser]

yeah the gold apocalypse challenge yeah?

[heady flint]

not a single person has ever done the apocalyspe 3 challenge

[pliant grail]

thats it

[high oxide]

It’s midnight on the east coast, so it’s Tuesday. The message is pinned every Tuesday haha

[humble geyser]

professional gaslighting

[white pivot]

I thought the game was based on utc

[heady flint]

this isnt exactly prime rib levels of literacy here 😛

[high oxide]

The game is based in your heart

[white pivot]

what

[humble geyser]

have u attempted apoc3?

[white pivot]

literal ragebait

[heady flint]

nah and i probably never will i suck at the game

[fleet owl]

They made it a bit harder now considering you can no longer hide beside piano and many other places

[heady flint]

nah somethings fucked with los you get los speed even when not in los

i was crouched behind the kitchen island in tangey and a jinn came directly for my ass full speed

[abstract nymph]

i tried to do apoc1 and it was a revenant
dying at 150% speed is not fun

[fleet owl]

Literally every hiding spot has been screwed. No more nursery/crib/ kitchen counter none of that

[heady flint]

i dont think its on purpose

[fleet owl]

It just has LOS on you. I've tested it and yeah I don't think it is either but they need to fix it.

[heady flint]

[tranquil pumice]

I think the update broke DOTS photos

[balmy jolt]

They spelled where I live incorrectly on the Nell’s Diner newspaper in Bleasdale. Wonder how to get that updated. Should be Tucson, AZ and not Tuscon.

[heady flint]

we werent able to tst dots we got the demon/myling/polty or whatever threesome every game lol

[vagrant ocean]

so you can loop the ghost upstair between the master bedroom and the trophy room

[heady flint]

[solar rock]

Hey does anybody have any tips to level up faster im kinda new

[kindred steppe]

Yeah you cant crouch loop on that table anymore

[humble geyser]

im nearly 200hrs in and i only just got it, i had 37 attempts

[high star]

So the outside lights turning on and off in the new bleasdale, is that map affect or the ghost doing it?

[vast crown]

unlock nightmare and try that

[unique sail]

Motion lights

[fleet owl]

Affects

[turbid lance]

it's motion sensitive

[vagrant ocean]

look at some of the custom difficulties they might help

[solar rock]

Thank you

[humble geyser]

theyre motion detector based lights

[turbid lance]

the motion sensitive lights are triggered by players or the ghost

[humble geyser]

says that in the video showcase

[vast crown]

eventually work your way up to no evidence games. i usually get like 4-4.5k a game on my tanglewood custom

[solar rock]

Okay bet

[humble geyser]

yeah i get 4k from hiding behind the fridge in ridgeview and listening to speeds lmao

[solar rock]

Lmaoo

[high star]

ohhhh lol we were wondering ewhy they kept turning on and off. Thank you

[vast crown]

take your time working your way up to no evidence, do not rush straight into it. learn ghost behaviors and shit then start trying it out

[high oxide]

Also they’re tied to the breaker, so don’t be confused if sometimes they don’t go off.

[gleaming hamlet]

Hi

Does this map have an Easter egg?

[humble geyser]

the pet yes

[white pivot]

I should play custom more

[vast crown]

motion sensor lights turn off if you sit in the doorway without actually opening the door, i'd call this a bug and the range needs to be extended into the doorway a bit so the lights will stay on until you're inside the house all the way

[humble geyser]

my custom no evidence is like 10.4x multiplier

easy xp

[vast crown]

mine's 10.62, take the 12.97 and turn power on and sprinting on

[high oxide]

Like sit there without moving?

[vast crown]

yeah

[gleaming hamlet]

The little spider?

[heady flint]

mines only x5 but thats good enough for me

[high oxide]

Right, they’re motion

So I figure that’s probably intended

[vast crown]

oh yeah duh

[high oxide]

[vast crown]

i figured they'd stay on for some minimum time

[humble geyser]

i believe thats the only easter egg yes

[vast crown]

cause i've never walked by someone's house with motion sensing lights and seen them turn off lol

[humble geyser]

yeah u need power on otherwise jinn is impossible to test for

[vast crown]

mare's easier this way, goryo's easier this way because more of the bullshit ghosts are ruled out already

[gleaming hamlet]

What about the weird noises outside the map? It’s a weird noise I heard on parabolic

[odd vale]

@vernal dove there’s a reason the tags don’t work. Don’t use them. lol

Just post your question

[high oxide]

I have a motion light on my back porch that I have to wait motionless for it to go off before I can stargaze, then I forget it’s on, I move and it blinds the hell out of me

[vernal dove]

oops my bad

[vagrant ocean]

... 2 high priest cards in 1 tarrot card deck, what luckj

[heady flint]

you can pick up ambient noises on parabolic, its probably the bird calls

[humble geyser]

i have roaming set to high so discerning between room changes and just high roaming is difficult sometimes

[heady flint]

"bird calls" i wanna know what kinda bird they are, they sound like a bird of paradise or something

[vernal dove]

im playing pro difficulty on ps5 and on the new farmhouse ive gotten revanant 3 in a row is that a glitch or something

[humble geyser]

me whos probably pulled close to 20 full decks and have never gotten high priestess 🥲

[turbid lance]

no that's something that legit happens sometimes

[white pivot]

sounds like really bad luck

[high oxide]

1 out of 24 chance

[odd vale]

Nah, just RNG being annoying lol

[vast crown]

put motion sensor in the room and track if it goes off or not after the end of a hunt or crucifix burn. you have a guarantee that when a crucifix burns or a hunt ends, the very next place the ghost goes to is the ghost room, and it will set off motion sensors on its way. if they don't go off, room change, if they do, no room change

[high oxide]

You say annoying but I love Revs

[vagrant ocean]

i feel for ya, isnt it the rares card to get currently?

[high oxide]

They’re so slow and derpy

[humble geyser]

i believe so

[white pivot]

3 times in a row it's 1 in 13824

[humble geyser]

hanged man is ever so slightly more common

[odd vale]

Oh no revs are my fave. I’m just saying if one wants different ghosts it’s annoying lol.

[high oxide]

Look I’m not good at math, but also it’s not dependent on each other. You can get a rev last match, but the next match is still a 1/24 odd

[magic tiger]

Revs are everyone's biggest fans. that's the reason why they charge at you when they sense ur presence. Bc they want a deadly autograph

[vernal dove]

ok cause like i played three matches and the evidence is usually the same and ended up being a revenant back to back

[abstract nymph]

my friend just challenged a rev and fucking died

[high oxide]

Hopefully they yelled “it is speeeeed”

[vast crown]

dumb choices get dumb rewards 🙂

[white pivot]

I remember playing prison on a weekly challenge, I went up to someone yelling obake before suffocating to death

[ocean tree]

so have we figured out the easter egg on bleasdale?

[white pivot]

it's march why is everyone talking about easter

[magic tiger]

Revs aren't the type of ghosts to be challenged

Challenging a Rev is a death sentence

[white pivot]

not with the power of incense

[humble geyser]

my first ever apoc3 run was a rev

[abstract nymph]

i told him if he died I'd leave without him

[cold beacon]

tasty chocolate?

[white pivot]

I hate chocolate

[humble geyser]

dang

[south violet]

Hello is anyone down to play some phasmo just got the game

[glass trout]

do i bother reporting an invisible object on bleasedale as a bug

[white pivot]

#lfg-eu #lfg-na #lfg-as #lfg-sa

[abstract nymph]

go to the lfg channels

[prime elk]

Please keep 'looking for group' requests in our designated channels. Check them out, Investigator: #lfg-eu | #lfg-na | #lfg-as | #lfg-sa!

[high oxide]

Can’t hurt

[vast crown]

better to have it documented than not

[hoary wind]

Its the ghost object new feature fr

[magic tiger]

What if the ghost could pick up and carry items like dead VR players.

[lime holly]

Yeah it is unless it’s an already known bug

[cold beacon]

I'm imagining a hammer being hovered up and down like a bad sci fi effect

[white pivot]

m

[lime holly]

Imagine the ghost could steal your equipment

[white pivot]

hell nah

[humble geyser]

dude i shit myself when i heard the new piano sounds

[turbid lance]

I would personally.
and I could, but I don't have vid.

[humble geyser]

it sounds like a toddler going up to the keys and mashing them

[white pivot]

are there any plans for new ghost types? we have 24 but there's a max of 35

[humble geyser]

max as in the amount of evidence combinations?

[lime holly]

Yeah

[zinc coyote]

No

[lime holly]

They could always add more evidence types to increase maximum if they wanted

[white pivot]

nah I just thought of a random number

[humble geyser]

i only started playing this year, when was the mimic added?

[zinc coyote]

We dont really need more ghosts at the moment

[lime holly]

but I dont think it is any priority rn

fixing the maps seems to be the priority rn

[humble geyser]

id rather map reworks than ghost types

new ghost models would be nice but ghost types arent really necessary

[rain whale]

More maps

[white pivot]

we haven't had a new ghost type in like 3 years

just saying

[humble geyser]

i dont think the game needs one as of now

[zinc coyote]

Maps, content and mechanics of the game should come first especially horror 2.0. We have more than enough ghosts

[lime holly]

theyre working on smaller maps and updating the old maps like the farmhouses and eventually prison and brownstone

[vagrant ocean]

i mean tanglewood and ridgeview have already been updated

[white pivot]

or at least a new big map

[humble geyser]

if the new content was between maps, reworks, mechanics or new ghost types, ghost types would be last for me

[humble geyser]

we’re getting a new map this year, most likely a diner

[glass trout]

i didn’t have an option to send a vid but eh it doesn’t need one

[turbid lance]

you didn't? it usually gives me that option last, but it does have to be a link

[humble geyser]

tanglewood is getting another rework later this year, similar in quality to the bleasdale one

[glass trout]

maybe the type of bug i reported? might be different

[turbid lance]

ah that could be

[glass trout]

i have already forgotten the options 😭😭😭

[dense ocean]

i would like some cool new ghost types but i'd rather have horror 2.0 and maps over anything else

[turbid lance]

no worries, I have too XD

[vagrant ocean]

tbh i think edgefield needs some love first, i think its the only small map not updated yet

[white pivot]

the maps are fine as it is tho

[dense ocean]

honestly i'd be happy if we got horror 2.0 before any new maps if it would make it come much faster but this is fine

[white pivot]

we just need more large maps

[dense ocean]

i love the new bleasdale and it makes me super excited for tanglewood and grafton to get redecorated

[white pivot]

like a mall or a hotel or smth you know?

[dense ocean]

eh i think more small and medium honestly

[turbid lance]

edgefield feels cramped walking in the door, I think that's my least favorite map. I hope they work some magic on that one.

[turbid lance]

both

[white pivot]

why? we have like 7 small maps and 4 medium maps

[vagrant ocean]

welp damn, an intermidate blood moon tangle wood

[white pivot]

compared to 2 large maps

[dense ocean]

i guess so

[glass trout]

large maps will take longer to release

[twin surge]

can yall help me fix it

it says im eu when im NA

[white pivot]

i'm fine waiting longer, it's better than having more small maps

[zinc coyote]

Change it to NA

[twin surge]

how do you do that

[dense ocean]

me personally sunny meadows alone fulfills all my large map desires

[turbid lance]

people play the smaller maps more, so they get bored of seeing those over the larger maps.

we need both, we need more smaller AND larger maps.

[white pivot]

we already got like 2 more small maps last year

[dense ocean]

3 tbh, prison is NOT medium 😭 🙏

[zinc coyote]

Click where it says EU, you can change it to NA

[humble geyser]

exactly, i wanna see map reworks and horror 2.0 above all else

[white pivot]

it is medium

[dense ocean]

game calls it that but it isnt

[lime holly]

only 3 medium maps
smr
prison
maple

[glass trout]

considered medium by game but does not feel medium

[dense ocean]

prison is absolutely a large map

[vagrant ocean]

is the bloodmoon a 5% chance or higher currently?

[white pivot]

wait I thought bleasdale was a medium

[lime holly]

unless new bleasdale is changed to medium

[turbid lance]

it's not large like brownstone and SM either. it fits somewhere in the middle.

[zinc coyote]

Prison is stinky

[dense ocean]

point hope and bleasdale joined the medium club today

[turbid lance]

new bleasdale IS medium

[white pivot]

point hope too?

[glass trout]

i think new bleasedale is medium

[lime holly]

oh thats nice

[glass trout]

and ph is medium

[turbid lance]

yup, point hope is medium

[lime holly]

i didnt see the changelog today lol

[hardy surge]

Hey the incense is not working

[white pivot]

what did they change?

[lime holly]

point hope becoming medium is massive W

[white pivot]

it looks the same to me

[lime holly]

the map category

[turbid lance]

it's the same size, they just changed its labeling to medium

[glass trout]

the map size

[humble geyser]

they didnt change anything, they just made it classify as a medium map bruh

[white pivot]

are you serious

[dense ocean]

i wish they'd have left old bleasdale in the game as a legacy pick though, it would be extra content literally for free

[white pivot]

it was fine as a small map

[vagrant ocean]

tbh i miss the old asylum top floor only map sometimes

[humble geyser]

there would likely be confusion when it comes to map restrictions for weekly challenges etc

[zinc coyote]

Old asylum was great

[white pivot]

ig we have a new easiest medium map now...

[turbid lance]

it wasn't. I would've rather seen them alter the map in other ways, though, and keep the small definition

[humble geyser]

by surface area its a medium map, its way larger than any of the houses

[dense ocean]

label it as legacy or something

[humble geyser]

all bro can do is complain

[dense ocean]

or put a toggle at the top of the map board to pull up a legacy maps menu

[white pivot]

the rooms are like the same size as the house rooms tho

[dense ocean]

i dont mind bleasdale being made into a medium

[lime holly]

point hope is definitely not the easiest medium map

[humble geyser]

but there’s like 7 of them stacked on top of each other

[lime holly]

ghosts on top floor are such a pain to deal with

[white pivot]

it was originally a small map

[dense ocean]

bleasdale is the new easiest medium map i think lol

[glass trout]

yes but imagine you have a top floor ghost

[vagrant ocean]

tbh my best and worse memory is getting lost but figuring out the ghost anyway just from hunts, was a demon with back to back hunts

[turbid lance]

ah no, I was talking about PH. Bleasdale absolutely is medium.

[humble geyser]

exactly, try getting a rev or thaye on the top floor

[white pivot]

I've had it before, it's not as bad as people say

[dense ocean]

oh

[lime holly]

yeah and majority was advocating for the change to medium

[zinc coyote]

Hunts were scarier back then especially on that map

[dense ocean]

point hope isnt a small map im sorry 😭

[lime holly]

because of the length of time it takes to get to the top floor

[white pivot]

I still think it's a small map

[glass trout]

combined with sanity drain and 2 light switches on most floors it’s bad

[humble geyser]

im sorry nathan but your individual opinion does not outweigh the collective community’s opinion

[cold beacon]

Getting to the top of Point Hope from the truck takes about the same amount of time as getting to the absolute furthest rooms on Sunny Meadows

[plain shoal]

Prison being a medium map is still crazy to me

[dense ocean]

if only they'd add a legacy board so using steam depot to violate tos wasnt the only way to revisit asylum 😢

[glass trout]

i love the map but it has its issues

[lime holly]

In terms of area, yeah each room is small but in terms of length of time getting from bottom to top… yeah it deserved the change to medium

[dense ocean]

jesus that's actually insane

[vagrant ocean]

i think its still the only map you could/can get lost in at least the new asylum map has landmarks so you will know where you are

[cold beacon]

With that it's hard to justify it as a small map honestly...

[white pivot]

it takes a minute to get from the bottom floor to the top floor, if you're at 100% speed with sprinting

a minute is really not bad

[dense ocean]

they should've made it 1 light switch per floor 😭

[turbid lance]

if they had added a dumbwaiter, I would've otherwise been happy with PH.

one of the suggestions was that they not just take a look at how big a map is when they categorize by size, but also by how far away the last room is from a door to enter the map. they might've taken that into consideration.

[zinc coyote]

We should definitely have a legacy map option honestly. I want the legacy safe house and truck back too. Loved the look of them

[cold beacon]

It's not bad... but it's still the same amount of Sunny Meadows, which is a large.

[lime holly]

This is relative. Compare the time to get from one end of tanglewood, edgefield, ridgeview, etc to point hope. Its a significant differencd

[dense ocean]

i mostly just want a legacy map board for old asylum and in the future so i can revisit old bleasdale/grafton/tanglewood and any other reworked maps for nostalgia purposes

[white pivot]

same amount on sunny meadows? that's a bit of a stretch

[humble geyser]

considering you can only take 3 items at a time into the room, its a minute to get there, a minute to get back to the truck, and you gotta do it like 5 times to get all the equipment in the room IF you’re playing solo

[zinc coyote]

Agreed

[vagrant ocean]

tbh i would love to try old asylum as a gold apoc

[violet narwhal]

REALLY dumb question. Do Crucifixes require LOS?

[glass trout]

i think i mentioned that in my feb feedback 😭😭😭 my overall take is that it needs its own category for sanity and max lights on

[lime holly]

crucifixes prevent hunts, so no

[white pivot]

good thing I don't play solo

[rigid river]

hi guys, i have a question, do u listening a laugh in the game?

[violet narwhal]

I mean to the ghost.

[lime holly]

Ghost just needs to be inside the radius of a crucifix

[mild sonnet]

Hello

[dense ocean]

nah they just stop a hunt if the ghost initiates it from inside the radius they dont care about los

[white pivot]

i'm just pissed because now the ghost hunts for longer

[humble geyser]

as long as the ghost attempts to hunt within the radius, it doesnt matter whether the ghost has los of the crucifix or not

[dense ocean]

i think i asked for brownstone to get more viable options for hiding in my feb feedback, and also asked for a legacy map board LMAO

[white pivot]

correct me if i'm wrong but i'm pretty sure ghosts are programmed to hunt longer on bigger maps

[humble geyser]

even so, its too long of a journey to be considered a small map

[dense ocean]

yea they do

[lime holly]

Yes thats right

[humble geyser]

yes

[lime holly]

But medium map pays more & iirc sanity drain is reduced on medium/large maps

[glass trout]

yeah hahahaha brownstone is brutal for hiding. had a ghost spawn behind me at back left hallway and i only survived because of t3 sanity and a dream(hiding under stairwell)

[white pivot]

if point hope was already hard why make it harder

[humble geyser]

i always just walk up the fallen locker and stand above the ghost lmao

[lime holly]

getting from bottom to top and back you wont be in hunting range

[dense ocean]

it's stupid that the stairwell doesnt block los anymore it's not like you can literally always reach that thing

[turbid lance]

but you have one less light switch to flick on without blowing the breaker I think?

[humble geyser]

itll be an extra 10 seconds of hunt time, and you said a minute ‘isnt that bad’, so you’ll be fine

[vagrant ocean]

i think i have a pota but given its a blood moon i dont know if the ghost is just throwing more stuff around

[white pivot]

pay doesn't really matter to me I play for fun

[lime holly]

Interestingly ive never encountered that problem so I wouldn’t know

[strange flint]

Did random selection with friends and got brownstone six out of around 10 games.

[white pivot]

minute of traveling, hunting is different

[glass trout]

the only places i hide are stairwell and library. i always forget about bathroom stalls

[humble geyser]

plenty of looping or hiding spots on PH then, chin up lad

[glass trout]

escaping the ghost on point hope isn’t that bad

because of stairs being wack

[white pivot]

yeah and most of them are on the first floor

[plain shoal]

PH is cool visually but it's not a fun map

[lime holly]

^

[humble geyser]

so dont play point hope then if you dont like it?

[lime holly]

still, the change to medium is a W in my eyes

[white pivot]

I do like it, it's just annoying that it got harder

[humble geyser]

by surface area its a medium map, it was too big to be classified as small

and now youll enjoy a larger xp payout too so

[cold beacon]

It's definitely a stretch... in Sunny Meadow's favour.
Time it takes to get from the truck (starting from the computer) to entering the room on 100% player speed and no sprint:
Point Hope (Lantern Room Top): 1 minute 20 seconds
Sunny Meadows (Morgue): 1 minute 08 seconds

[lime holly]

If we do surface area alone, shouldn’t prison be a large map?

[white pivot]

what if i'm already at the max xp level

[humble geyser]

the game is not of a consistent nature unfortunately 😭

[lime holly]

how does prison’s surface area compare to sm

[humble geyser]

are you tho?

[cold beacon]

Map size has pretty much always gone by room count, not surface area. Point Hope has become an exception to this rule

[white pivot]

XX is the max right?

and I got every tier 3 equipment

[lime holly]

For prestige yes

[humble geyser]

prestige 20 lvl 9999 is max level mate

[white pivot]

tomato tomato

[torn hill]

😭

[cold beacon]

Not too long ago, high school was considered a medium map. Wrap your head around that one

[white pivot]

which one

[humble geyser]

yeah THAT was ridiculous

[lime holly]

and smr was small

[white pivot]

I mean it does seem like a small map tbh

[glass trout]

shhhhh

[torn hill]

smr??

[humble geyser]

bro what

[turbid lance]

smr?!

[cold beacon]

Honestly SMR being small makes about as much sense as Point Hope being small

[lime holly]

Sunny meadows restricted

[humble geyser]

sunny meadows restricted

[white pivot]

it limits it to like 1 wing and it doesn't have a lot of rooms

[turbid lance]

smr shouldn't have ever been a small map

[torn hill]

no as in i thought it was medium

[cold beacon]

But even if you get the medical wing, it still takes longer to get to the morgue than to the top of Point Hope :>

[humble geyser]

but its still a very long map, just because its a 1/4 of the original map size doesnt just automatically make it small

[lime holly]

It is medium, but it was initially small

[turbid lance]

it is. I didn't realize it used to be small either

[humble geyser]

its still a long trip from the truck to the end of one wing

[torn hill]

o yea they were tripping lol

[white pivot]

so it does take longer?

[torn hill]

point hope is a medium map u can’t change my mind

[odd vale]

I was totally in the wrong channel lol

[humble geyser]

point hope should never have been small, brownstone should never have been medium

[rain whale]

Mama Mezzooooo

[odd vale]

I thought I was in here, saw someone with the FL studio pfp and tagged them lol

Hi

[compact raven]

can anyone help me on loading screen

[lime holly]

Tbf when the game first released, the only large map was old asylum, which was like twice the size of brownstone

[compact raven]

it is stuck in intializing

[rain whale]

What are your thoughts on the Bleasdale rework?

[odd vale]

Haven’t played yet

[lime holly]

after old asylum was removed brownstone became large shortly after iirc

[humble geyser]

he did the math earlier, point hope top room is 12s longer to reach than morgue in SM

[compact raven]

please drakey needs help on intializing stuckage 🙏

[torn hill]

where is morgue

[humble geyser]

yeah isnt SM like half the size of asylum

[white pivot]

I don't play sunny meadows but it really doesn't take that long to get to the top floor

[humble geyser]

bottom floor very end of left wing

[torn hill]

i don’t play sm enough to know that sorta stuff, i did 0x sm for the badge and that was it

[white pivot]

sunny meadows has 69 rooms so I imagine it's a very large map

[lime holly]

At best yeah. Might even be less than half

Old asylum had over 100 rooms

[plain shoal]

Prison being in the same map size pool as maple lodge is still weird to me, feel like it should be classified as large

[turbid lance]

no wonder they had brownstone miscategorized as medium, with asylum map that big, yeesh

[humble geyser]

by comparison yes absolutely brownstone was medium

[arctic spear]

how do you open locked door in bleasdale?? anyone know??

[white pivot]

grab the key from the truck

[odd vale]

I’m playing 8 hours tomorrow so I will see it then

[full patio]

It's RNG

[plain shoal]

Introduce XL maps by giving us a football stadium or concert maps 💀

[abstract nymph]

that's a locked hiding spot. they appear as locked when they are unavailable

[lime holly]

Havent played it yet but some hiding spots in point hope are locked and only unlocked when you have all hiding spots. It might just be that mechanic

[humble geyser]

bottom floor has hospital wing on the left, restricted wing on the right. morgue is right at the end of the hospital wing. Patient 7’s corpse can be found in there too 🙂

[arctic spear]

oh really?

[turbid lance]

depends which door. could be a locked hiding spot that isn't available, or if it's the front door or gate, could be you need the key or that the ghost is hunting.

[humble geyser]

not the front door bruh

[south violet]

Is it still crashing on console?

[rain whale]

You might love it. ImpulseSV released his VODs with Skizzleman.

[white pivot]

that's the only locked door

[lime holly]

But if you have monkey paw you could wish for safety and it should unlock

[south violet]

for bleasdale

[odd vale]

I saw a tiny bit of it live

[full patio]

No it's not lol

[humble geyser]

it takes longer to reach the top of point hope than it does to reach the furthest room from the truck in sunny meadows…those are just the numbers bud sorry

[humble geyser]

have you played the new bleasdale???

[plain shoal]

Haven't experienced any crashes personally but I was only on for two hours

[white pivot]

going in, going to the second floor or whatever, and going to the farthest room?

[humble geyser]

yup

[turbid lance]

there's several doors that open up hiding spots, that can be locked

[full patio]

this

[vale spade]

Bleasdale revamp before GTA 6 is crazy

[white pivot]

those aren't unlockable tho

[humble geyser]

that meme still being a thing is crazy

[glass trout]

my question is who is locking their shower door

[full patio]

Which means they're LOCKED

[glass trout]

and how

[white pivot]

but they were asking how to unlock it

[full patio]

NO MORE LOCKED DOORS!

[white pivot]

and the only unlockable door is the front door (or ig any other exits)

[vale spade]

Fr imagine all this stuff going on before GTA 6 is crazy

[lime holly]

Asking the important questions

[turbid lance]

they might not realize it's not unlockable.

[south violet]

Thanks! Yeah, tried to play a couple and it crashes but I saw that it was a bug didnt know if it was fixed is all

[humble geyser]

someone already tested and timed it, you are more than welcome to do the same

[white pivot]

i'm not able to test right now

[south violet]

Hello everyone, who can help? This is an unusual question.

[humble geyser]

shoot

[cold beacon]

our favourite

[lime holly]

Send the question. Somebody might have an answer

[white pivot]

don't ask to ask

[full patio]

Crashed for my friend on the second floor 4 times in a row and then it worked fine after he hard reset.

[humble geyser]

dont tell people what to do, dude was just being polite

[south violet]

in short, I got a game ban in phasmaphobia, but for some reason the game was taken from the library

[white pivot]

wanted to make sure he doesn't do it again

[south violet]

the game is no longer in the library at all, only the game blocking

[plain shoal]

Getting banned from phasmophobia is crazy

[lime holly]

phasmophobia ban? Sounds like a dm phasmo modmail thing

[full patio]

Now I have to ask why? Cause I'm nosey lol

[cold beacon]

Your best bet is to message @violet nova, yeah.

[humble geyser]

were you using cheats in a multiplayer lobby?

[vale spade]

[south violet]

yes

[vale spade]

[glass trout]

pro tip don’t do that

[humble geyser]

its really not that big of a deal if he does, being polite to strangers doesnt hurt anybody…

[vale spade]

Cheating on Phasmo is insane ngl

[humble geyser]

well ngl thats the first problem

[plain shoal]

[white pivot]

if it's not that big of a deal why are you worrying about it

[humble geyser]

he wasn’t breaking any server rules with what he said, there was zero issue with it

[white pivot]

neither was my response

[south violet]

I'll explain the situation, I played with cheats (yes, I'm bad and all that) after a few months I get a game block, but I only had access to a single game, I played calmly, the game was mine, after 2 months I didn't play it, and when I went into steam, the game was no longer in the library

[humble geyser]

just dont tell people what to do bruh, its douchey

[cold beacon]

I wouldn't have thought a game developer would revoke access entirely to a game unless it was obtained illegitimately. Either way, random folk from the discord can't really help

[white pivot]

you're telling me to do something

[cold beacon]

Wind it back a bit, guys.

[zinc coyote]

Argue in dms or something

[white pivot]

my dms are off

[south violet]

I have the same thoughts, I have never seen in practice that they took and took away a game completely, only limited the network functions for it

[white pivot]

check your hidden games

[lime holly]

Yeah definitely dm phasmo modmail about it. If its just like a one time offense or smth they’ll prob give 2nd chance

[turbid lance]

or liberally use the Ignore function and save your peace, friends :)

[humble geyser]

telling someone to talk a certain way and telling someone to treat people better are different things

[balmy zealot]

in the new map, is the recipe eggs, brown sugar, ground ginger an easter egg or no?

[zinc coyote]

Best bet is to msg @violet nova

[lavish briar]

What is the food item next to the cupcakes outside on the new bleadsdale map, to settle a argument with my friend

[humble geyser]

whats that?

[south violet]

if I go into the store and type in phasmaphobia, it also says that I don't have this game in my library, i.e. it's not even hidden, they took it away

[white pivot]

the what function

[glass trout]

it’s a cute chalkboard in the kitchen

[balmy zealot]

in the downstairs kitchen

[humble geyser]

also there’s a possible teaser for the new map on the coffee table in one of the sitting rooms

[zinc coyote]

Are you on the correct steam account?

[balmy zealot]

i thought it would be neet if theirs an easter egg but maybe not idk

[turbid lance]

I thought that was a grocery list

[white pivot]

contact steam

[humble geyser]

if he was cheating in multiplayer, steam isnt likely to be helpful

[white pivot]

neat

[balmy zealot]

i thought it was a recipe bc theirs a boiling pot on

[south violet]

yes

[humble geyser]

but its worth a shot to ask steam anyway

[white pivot]

that's a separate issue

[zinc coyote]

The top floor room in the back might be a easter egg but that list is entirely different

[full patio]

Talked my friend into playin. Not even 15 mins in he screams as loud as humanly possible, woke up is wife, and had to get offline lmfao I'm too high for all this.

[vale spade]

Imagine needing to cheat in Phasmo, that’s why there’s difficulties to choose from of what to play

[vivid sedge]

So on the map site for bleedsdale it says that there is a match on the map. What is it for?

[cold beacon]

The cupcakes outside?

[zinc coyote]

Msg the bot here or contact steam. We cant help you at all

[turbid lance]

hey. did you spell it right when you searched? phasmophobia.
but either way, you don't owe anyone here an explanation - the devs, if anyone. the people here aren't able to help otherwise.

[white pivot]

if you're gonna cheat don't do it in multiplayer

[humble geyser]

lets not get into that now, dude is just tryna get his game back

[white pivot]

you can't just look at a bush and figure out it's a wraith

[balmy zealot]

oh?

[south violet]

and how can I write to this bot? in private messages or what?

[zinc coyote]

Or just dont cheat at all. Not even in singleplayer

[humble geyser]

phasmo doesn’t have an automatic anticheat, so singleplayer for cheats are completely safe

[zinc coyote]

@violet nova dm this bot

[vale spade]

I don’t think cheating in single player is safe either

[lavish briar]

yeah the thing in the other glass container on the other side of the candle in the middle in the table on the patio

[turbid lance]

yeah send @violet nova a DM and ask them. the mods or someone from the group will respond

[zinc coyote]

Its still against tos and can probably get you banned still

[cold beacon]

Yeah I just went around the back and look. It's cake.

Specifically a victoria sponge cake

Very British!

[shy rampart]

You don't have to spoil what it is specifically but is there a puzzle easter egg for the bleasdale remake akin to point hope?

[humble geyser]

yes but my point is, if he wants to cheat then singleplayer is the “safest” way to do so

[humble geyser]

nothing has been found yet

its very possible there is tho

[south violet]

thank you, i send

[zinc coyote]

Ive done some searching and cant narrow anything down but i have some ideas. No one knows just yet

[south violet]

I just thought maybe someone had already encountered such a situation, so I decided to ask ordinary people, it’s just a little strange

[lime holly]

Yeah thats reasonable

[white pivot]

idk it seems like a steam problem, you shouldn't have games taken from you

[tame niche]

new farmhouse is great

[white pivot]

I miss the old one tbh

[south violet]

Okay, I understand limiting network functions, but taking away a game is somehow strange, especially since I don’t remember games being taken from the library in practice

[shy rampart]

Can't believe insym didn't instantly spill the beans what kind of content creator is he

[humble geyser]

there’s no reason they couldn’t have kept the old one, but the new one is fantastic

[white pivot]

insym is a girl?

[lime holly]

I havent played it yet but i saw a few screenshots and yeah the aesthetic is really nice

[south violet]

Well, it looks like I got caught in the crossfire

[humble geyser]

also potential teaser for the new map is in the new bleasdale

[white pivot]

I liked the atmosphere of a runned down wooden house

[cold beacon]

One that has signed an non-disclosure agreement.

[south violet]

because I have a game block on my profile, but the game is missing -_0

[white pivot]

at least we still have grafton

[humble geyser]

youve still got grafton, for now at least

[tame niche]

i think a haunted office building would be sick
ive made some deliveries to those at night and they get creepy

[white pivot]

yeah, ig changing 1 is fair and keeping the other one

[heady torrent]

New Bleasdale map is gorgeous

[humble geyser]

new map could be a motel or diner, based on the newspaper in bleasdale

[tame niche]

better have a jukebox

[white pivot]

I want a mall map

[turbid lance]

will it also play Adrift? lol

[humble geyser]

fr

[lime holly]

cj need a raise fr xd

[humble geyser]

in time bud

[marsh thorn]

grafton is supposed to stay run down with its update. like bleas is pretty and graft will be not pretty lol

[white pivot]

what

[zinc coyote]

I cant grab the spider on bleasedale. 0/10

[tame niche]

im only anxious about Tanglewood remake

[void mist]

I want the new wallpapers uploaded to spoonflower so I can gat them for my house

[white pivot]

that wasn't in the roadmap was it?

[zinc coyote]

-trello

[prime elk]

Kinetic Games has a Trello Board! There you can see potential upcoming updates, features, and fixes. You can find the Trello @ https://trello.com/b/9QrnqQ1j/phasmophobia.

[humble geyser]

it was yes

[vale spade]

Hot take: Point Hope overrated

[cold beacon]

overrated?

[white pivot]

they're remaking all the house maps??

[turbid lance]

yeah, I am too, though I feel a lot better about it now that I've seen what they've done with bleasdale.
they just need to not overdo it with the layout, it doesn't need much at all

[humble geyser]

as in its a possibility but not an anytime soon possibility

[tame niche]

its inevitable seeing as Kinetic is trying to get away from stock Unity store maps

[lime holly]

I dont think thats a hot take

[wide cargo]

Who actually likes point hope in first place

[cold beacon]

How much do you hate point hope that you think it's _over_rated

[zinc coyote]

Me

[turbid lance]

very typical take XD

[humble geyser]

its cool for the easter egg, it just sucks when the ghost is on the top floor

[white pivot]

it's one of my favorite maps

[turbid lance]

I like Point Hope. I just don't like to play on it very often XD

[vale spade]

Nothing like going ALL the way up top for either the ghost room or breaker

And doing it over and over to get other items in the room

[lime holly]

a more hot take is saying point hope should’ve stayed a small map

[zinc coyote]

I prefer it at the top floor, insanely good for looping

[white pivot]

I mean unless sprinting is off it's not that big of a deal

[cold beacon]

We did have someone say that earlier

[tame niche]

freedom_of_speech.jpeg
I think point hope should be bigger

[lime holly]

lol

[vale spade]

Point hope no evidence is just

[white pivot]

if it's considered medium then yeah

[cold beacon]

When I said that it takes about the same time to get to the top of Point Hope and to get to the absolute furthest rooms of Sunny Meadows, they said it was a "stretch"

[marsh thorn]

top floor point hope ghost i always die LOL

[cold beacon]

what they didn't know was I was actually being very generous to Sunny by saying that..

'cos it's like 10 seconds longer for PH

[vale spade]

[humble geyser]

certainly did go over some people’s heads yes

[white pivot]

also I looked it up the morgue is in the basement

[wide cargo]

Widen the rooms a bit and make stairs ect wider. Point hope would be more fun

[vale spade]

Point Hope is a cool looking map, but it’s really hell to put up with half the time

[white pivot]

what about the rooms in the second floor

[blissful badger]

I'm a little confused. Is the lvl 3 incense consumable or not? I don't seem to be able to reuse them, but it doesn't have the consumable tag in the shop

[cold beacon]

The ground floor you mean?

[lime holly]

Yes especially top floor ghosts

[tame niche]

PH makes for great 4-player games and miserable single player ones
it is the dark souls poison swamp of Phasmo

[white pivot]

the second floor

[humble geyser]

SM doesnt have a second floor and a basement, theyre the same thing

[cold beacon]

The inaccessible second floor of Sunny

[vale spade]

That’s my issue with it, same with finding the breaker or bone

[white pivot]

there's no second floor?

last time I played it I could've sworn there was

[cold beacon]

It's not accessible, no. There's only the ground floor and the basement.

[white pivot]

I remember walking on some sort of staircase

[humble geyser]

theres a ground floor which has the chapel, courtyard and male and female wings, then the basement has the hospital and restricted wings

[cold beacon]

Probably to the basement yes.

The boiler room is pretty comparable to the morgue in distance but there's no room on Sunny that takes as much time to reach as the top of Point Hope.

[lime holly]

I dont have problems with bone and I think they made changes so breaker max floor is now 4 or smth but yeah top floor ghost is annoying

[humble geyser]

stairs only go down

[white pivot]

I find it hard to believe that the biggest map does not have a second floor

[zinc coyote]

Unless youre at the bottom, then they go up

[white pivot]

even the high school map has a second floor

[cinder creek]

i just died in a hiding spot w/ no electronics lmao. is that a common bug?

[vale spade]

Well the bone is not too much of a problem compared to the breaker and ghost, but damn I didn’t know they limited the breaker spawns that does help a little

[cold beacon]

Yes but the high school map doesn't have a basement, so it's still two floors.

[humble geyser]

it still technically has 2 floors dude, one is just BELOW

[white pivot]

the basement is not that big tho

[cold beacon]

That's a big ol' 'it depends'

[humble geyser]

either the ghost saw you go in there or its a deogen

[turbid lance]

was it an open hiding spot? a lot of people are complaining about open hiding spots and looping are not breaking los anymore

[vale spade]

Yeah, you enter the building through the second floor

[humble geyser]

its the same size as the top floor minus the chapel and courtyard…

[lime holly]

the fact that point hope gets adjustments in what feels like every single update is evidence enough to me that the map’s functionality isnt that great. Aesthetics are great though

[cold beacon]

We're really playing fast and loose with the definition of 'second floor'.

[cinder creek]

needed 25% avg sanity, threw all my electronics down adn hid in nursery behind crib. ghost was twins. ghost room was master bedroom w/ bath and closet. went into hiding spot and used haunted mirror to drain sanity and then the twin just waltz over to me after checking a few rooms; I didnt smudge because i figured i was good lmao

[humble geyser]

it’s hurting my brain dude, i can’t explain it any simpler

[white pivot]

really? it has like 8 rooms per wing

[vale spade]

I wonder if Edgefield has a second floor

[tame niche]

the basement is in the ground, so it's really the actual ground floor
which makes the 1st floor the second floor

[white pivot]

and the map is like what 70 rooms

[humble geyser]

in terms of surface area, it’s practically the same size

[rugged valley]

Crib isn’t consistent now

[cold beacon]

The crib was never a totally reliable hiding spot (the ghost might just happen to check it) and as of the update it's even less reliable.

[white pivot]

but it has less rooms

[cinder creek]

oh jesus.

[humble geyser]

crib is a hit or miss hiding spot,

[cold beacon]

So if the basement is the ground floor and the ground floor is the second floor, where's the first floor. Where's the first floor Joules?!

[humble geyser]

it also has more hallways…

[rugged valley]

What about the beds

[white pivot]

I counted it has 20 rooms

[rugged valley]

Are they still as high as theyused to be

[tame niche]

Kinetic is a british developer and such doesn't have the concept of a "first floor"

[cinder creek]

well it was a hard miss for me lmfao. anywhere I can see a list of the more reliable hiding spots? just closets and basement im guessing for tanglewood ? im new to the game so not sure.

[white pivot]

still a lot of rooms but still not as much as the first floor

[humble geyser]

whats your point?

[cold beacon]

In the UK, Sunny would have a basement, a ground floor, and an (inaccessible) first floor.
In the US, Sunny would have a basement, a first floor, and an (inaccessible) second floor.

[vale spade]

It’s pretty efficient if it’s a normal speed ghost or slow, same with Ridgeview fridge

[cold beacon]

Honestly I'd mostly just avoid the crib for now but lockers and closets are always your best bet because the ghost can't wander into them at all unless they detect you in some way.

[vale spade]

Just as long you don’t make the ghost speed up too much

[rugged valley]

Guys are the beds still good hiding spots

[cinder creek]

sick, thank you for the heads up. i always used the crib - first time getting caught there lmao

[humble geyser]

which ones? different beds have different hitboxes for LOS

[tame niche]

i should be able to pull the covers over myself and go "mimimimimimi" and escape the ghost

[lime holly]

as a US person, ground floor not being first floor in UK hurts me inside

[cold beacon]

I've got got there a handful of times but right now it's so unreliable that it's borderline bugged.

[white pivot]

what is the point of monkey paw tags anyway

[rugged valley]

The one in ridgeview i think

[turbid lance]

this may change, but for rn your best bet is more closed hiding spots like closets, for sure.

some people are saying there's a bug where the player models are taller than they're supposed to be - that like say, the kitchen counter also used to break los and no longer does. so yeah. hiding spots with doors you can close.

[vale spade]

Just hide with a smudge in your hand just in case, ez

[humble geyser]

likely probably not a good hiding spot, i personally wouldnt risk it. just hide behind the fridge

[cold beacon]

It's a way for people to organically discover the monkey paw wishes without needing to looking them up. If they're playing on a desert island without internet or something.

[humble geyser]

that may be true but whats your point?

[white pivot]

why don't they just switch to text recognition?

[lime holly]

can u even boot up steam and phas without internet

[vale spade]

My most reliable non hiding spots is Willow Street garage and Edgefield bathroom in the boys room upstairs

[glacial stag]

So if I wished for a lifetime of free food, what would the ironic side effect be?

[rugged valley]

What about hiding behind the shutter in the corner

[glass trout]

steam has an offline mode

[rugged valley]

I’ll have to try it ig

[humble geyser]

fridge in ridgeview is basically undetectable unless the ghost spawns in the back of the kitchen

[lime holly]

The free food is like rotten flesh from minecraft

[glass trout]

i think i’ve played it offline before

[zinc coyote]

Diabetes

[ivory urchin]

can confirm

[lime holly]

Or every time you eat free food from the lifetime supply one other person in the world starves

[vale spade]

That or a fast ghost or you caused the ghost to be too fast it’ll overlap it’s pathing enough to be able to spot you in the corner, but yes that spot is really damn good and I use it ALL the time on ridge

[cold beacon]

The free food is the charred flesh of your most cherished loved ones, and anything else turns to ash in your mouth.

[white pivot]

that's not healthy

[zinc coyote]

Yummy

[glacial stag]

spoken like a vulture

[noble holly]

is the game really buggy for you guys on console or is it just me and my friends having a problem

[white pivot]

I remember watching a show of a person addicted to eating their spouse's ashes

[cold beacon]

Less creepy answer: Two cops at the door show up with some very serious charges and an arrest warrant. Enjoy getting free meals for the rest of your life.

[zinc coyote]

Buggy how?

[white pivot]

what

[zinc coyote]

Oops wrong reply

[vale spade]

Me questioning how to even play Phasmo on controller

[glacial stag]

[zinc coyote]

Buggy how?

[white pivot]

play the training mode

[lime holly]

This actually seems the most likely to happen

[noble holly]

doors out of place and it’s laggy all over the place and it only started doing that when the update released today

[vale spade]

I don’t have it on Xbox, but I’ve connected my controller to the game before on pc and it’s

[cold beacon]

It's not as horror chic but it's definitely a classic ironic twist.

[humble geyser]

i personally havent had that happen before, i always have a crucifix in the kitchen to be safe, just in case the ghost room is the kitchen or a banshee or phantom decide to roam to me before they hunt

[fair fractal]

Woof there’s a big frame drop with the vid cam on Bleasdale now

[zinc coyote]

I saw something about Playstation having some issues. Maybe check in #common-tech-fixes or #1082421799578521620

[rugged valley]

What update

Ik there was one but all i’ve heard is LOS bs

[noble holly]

yeah it’s really bad and it’s also happening to my friend on pc and i just wanted to know and see if it was for everyone thanks

[zinc coyote]

Working fine on my end, havent noticed any performance drops personally

[vale spade]

Must be hella lucky, but the ghost most of the time doesn’t bother walking up to the slide door in the kitchen

[noble holly]

yeah

[fair fractal]

Lucky. It’s about 50 frames

[zinc coyote]

Even with the cam out i hold a average of around 130fps

[white pivot]

I don't even track my fps

it's either I have high fps or I don't

[fair fractal]

I’ve only used T3 so far, not sure if it’s all of them

[glass trout]

i think i get 75 average and mine dropped like 10-15 at one point

[lime holly]

Anything above 60 is good enough

[glass trout]

i was using t2

[lime holly]

Oops didnt mean to reply to that lol

I think beyond 60 human reaction time isnt strong enough to tell the difference

it starts to all look around the same

[zinc coyote]

60 feels slow to me personally

[stable stump]

dale

[white pivot]

I

[zinc coyote]

Anything below 90-110 isnt great imo

For a smooth experience at least

[white pivot]

I lmpkat on 615 hz

[lime holly]

At what point can you no longer tell the difference? For most content the difference between 120 and 60 is minimal for me

In fps games its more obvious but when watching videos its not a huge difference

[amber kite]

How do I get good?! 💔

[white pivot]

Play the game

[rugged valley]

Practice bro

[amber kite]

damn it why didn’t I think of that

[rugged valley]

YouTube

[lime holly]

Watch strong players play like meik

[amber kite]

Thanks!

[zinc coyote]

I went from 60, to 144, and currently at 165hz and can tell a big difference between all of them if the game runs at that fps. Ofc noticing the difference between 144 and 165 isnt minimal, but 60 is borderline difficult to play for me

The trained eye can definitely see more than 60fps

[rugged valley]

I’ll play with u if u want

[cold beacon]

For me the difference is noticeable but there is diminishing returns. The jump from say, 30 to 60 is about the same as 60 to 144.

[lime holly]

I learn the most from watching those types of players

[white pivot]

I learned from playing the game for 4 years

[zinc coyote]

My second monitor is 144hz and i can see a clear difference when i move tabs around

[amber kite]

I would like that

going from 120 to 60 isnt the easiest to see, but youll feel it

[rugged valley]

Honestly no one SEES that but yea u def feel the drop

[cold beacon]

Inconsistent framerates are a lot more noticeable. I can happily play a game at 30fps but if I've got a 30fps game on one monitor and I occasionally play a game of Phasmo at 144 or something then that 30 frames starts looking real choppy just by comparison

[lime holly]

Yeah i agree with that its more obvious for me in fps games but say somebody posted a video i wont always be able to tell if the video was recorded in 60 or 120 fps

[white pivot]

Videos usually have a framrate limit of 60 fps anyway

[ivory urchin]

i went from 60 with tearing to 165hz with Freesync Premium (HDR) and i have been loving the difference.

[zinc coyote]

Its like i can feel the fps

[ivory urchin]

i used to play on really low fps (30-45fps) then i upgraded a bit and got myself 120hz on high. i could probably push for 165hz but I dont like to play on bad graphics i mean i could but i wont

[tropic orchid]

There has to be like a secret thing in the new Bleasdale

[white pivot]

Why is everyone asking about a secret thing in bleasdale

[ivory urchin]

so buttery smooth right?

[ivory urchin]

because if they see a locked door they think its a secret

[white pivot]

Just because point hope had one doesn’t mean all of them are gonna have one ok

[lime holly]

well still good to ask just incase

[tropic orchid]

Have u not read the change-log?

[zinc coyote]

Yep, i played on a 240 once too. Now that is smooth but i dont know if my 3080 can handle it with the games I play

[white pivot]

I did not

[ivory urchin]

if you had a long day fam, dont look at discord to throw your bad mood at

[jovial escarp]

"I hate fun"

[tropic orchid]

"Something small and frightening, scuttling about the house…"

[ivory urchin]

the spoder

[white pivot]

I think it’s referring to the spider

[cold beacon]

That's Lilith yeah.

[tropic orchid]

I havent seen the spider

[ivory urchin]

hi skree how has your day been

[white pivot]

Look harder

||it’s in the attic||

[dense ocean]

Have the devs acknowledged what they did to the los system yet

[ivory urchin]

mhm

[cold beacon]

Spectcular.

[lime holly]

what happened to the los system

[dense ocean]

Ok that's a really mean and dramatic way to word it im js tryna ask if they've been made aware of the broken counters yet

[ivory urchin]

noiceeee btw what timezone are you in? im curious

[dense ocean]

Broke several open hiding spots like the crib on Tanglewood and made it so the countertops on maps like willow street and Tanglewood no longer block los

80% sure it's a bug because they wouldn't shadow delete the hiding spots but they should've heard and said something by now ...

[cold beacon]

+11

[ivory urchin]

ngl i dont think so. they should have posted about it by now

[modest moat]

Is anyone else having texture issues, or? lmao

[white pivot]

No

Try reinstalling

[lime holly]

oh yikes

[modest moat]

Tyty

[ivory urchin]

ooooh nice that's Aus or NZ right? which server has less latency for you? NA or AS?

[glass trout]

doesn’t always spawn

[white pivot]

Kiribati maybe

[lime holly]

man programming sucks lol. Try to fix/add one thing and it feels like two more problems appear

[cold beacon]

Tasmania, yes. AS is much much better ping-wise but there's a lot of folk who don't speak English so I play on NA and deal with the 300 ping.

[white pivot]

Another bug on the table

[lime holly]

happens all the time in my code

[white pivot]

Literally, it’s a spider

[glass trout]

i think it’s intentional

[white pivot]

Why would that be intentional

[cold beacon]

99 lines with bugs in the code, 99 lines with bugs
you take one down, patch it around
102 lines with bugs in the code

[glass trout]

also australia mentioneddd

[ivory urchin]

ohhh i got a mate who also is from tasmania

[lime holly]

and it’d be like 100x worse with videogame levels of codd

[cold beacon]

I'm sorry to hear that

[glass trout]

for variety

[glacial stag]

Phasmophobia 2 will be themed around Australia

[raven valve]

Ofc it will Shork 😂

[ivory urchin]

instead of ghosts its full of spiders and scorpions

[glacial stag]

i heard that theres like a seal that terrorises the town it lives in

[gritty dove]

The game is trying to be realistic, they're not including fictional countries

[glass trout]

this is why there’s a pin on australia in bleasedale office /j

[cold beacon]

You can tell Bleasdale isn't set in Australia because Lilith isn't the size of a frisbee

[raven valve]

Why was that the first thing I see when I came here

[lime holly]

Yeah its rough. Im only in the basic C programming courses rn tryna learn pointers and memory allocation and I can never get a code to work first try lol. Ill try to run and be hit with at least 5 error messages

[raven valve]

I thought that was the devs marking Shorkie Land

[glacial stag]

shess the size of a huntsmen

[glass trout]

it’s going to be canon to the new lore

[ivory urchin]

ah shit yep that sums C lang in a nutshell lmao

[white pivot]

They should rework camp woodwind

[raven valve]

Canon?! Ok now I’m interested

[raven valve]

They just need to fix the tents on all campsites tbh

[pliant fern]

chat another instance of onryo breaking the laws of the game. fast speed without los, and yet onryo

[lime holly]

I always forget the “;” at the end of lines. Thats always 1 of my error messages

[violet narwhal]

Woot woot, I managed to sucessfully loop the ghosts a few times today 😄

[raven valve]

GG

[cold beacon]

print hello world
assert(0)

[white pivot]

Ok

[raven valve]

I forget what assert does 🥺

[sinful yoke]

Just got a crash in the new Bleasdale map, and I'm on PC

[glacial stag]

assert dominance

[raven valve]

Expect some teething issues

[raven valve]

[ivory urchin]

i dont remember entirely how C+, C++, and C# differs but i only have a small knowledge of it enough for me to make a program to check how much deflection there would be on a bridge's joint

[paper bear]

the song played on the piano now is that the same song as on the music box?

[raven valve]

Yes, it’s adrift

[violet narwhal]

I did as well once. But aside from that and some performance drops in certain areas it's wonderful

[glacial stag]

Adrift

[paper bear]

okay i thought so i wasnt 100% tho

[cold beacon]

assert(0) will always fail, so you use it to mark unreachable code that shouldn't ever happen.

[violet narwhal]

Other pianos also play it now as well. I was getting it on Edgefield too

[cold beacon]

If you've ever seen an error message that's like "error: this shouldnt ever occur, please tell a programmer" that's assert(0)

[sinful yoke]

Indeed, fellow fur

[raven valve]

Ahhh! Of course! Thanks for the reminder!

[lime holly]

And every time im asked to generate random numbers to populate an array i forget to either

1. Seed the random generator
2. I forget to include time.h and stdlib.h

[violet narwhal]

Crap, smudges. Runs.

[ivory urchin]

i actually want to relearn the code and make a chances counter for ghosts

[white pivot]

They should rework spirit

[ivory urchin]

❓

[lime holly]

nah yurei

[white pivot]

And maybe yurei

[gritty hound]

Damn banshee. Walked through my whole team to kill me

[ivory urchin]

if there is a ghost needing of reworking, i think its goryo.

it doesnt have its own thing on zero evidence

[violet narwhal]

Yurei has a unique tell at least.

[lime holly]

fix the yurei ability and mare ability then we fine

[gritty hound]

Remove banshee and I’m chillin

[ivory urchin]

mare ability isnt really that reliable

[white pivot]

Spirit has like no unique traits other than longer smudge timer

[vast crown]

i don't see any issue with yurei ability

[arctic bobcat]

is there an easy way to do apoc 3 i just want the card bro its so awful 💔💔💔😭😭😭

[violet narwhal]

It doesn't change rooms or long roam. That's actually unique to banshee and goryo

[turbid lance]

maybe time for #bug-reports ?

[ivory urchin]

now we are talking

[zinc coyote]

Dont die

[gritty hound]

Yes

[white pivot]

Spirit doesn’t even have a strength

[ivory urchin]

like i said, its not unique

[arctic bobcat]

wtv dude

[lime holly]

Yeah but it the only thing the apoc3 folk got 😔

[white pivot]

It’s like the most boring ghost

[violet narwhal]

True, but Banshee has enough unique tells that it's not that tricky to determine one.

[ivory urchin]

if the ghost was in the Basement and you camped lobby, the ghost will never roam to you

[ivory urchin]

mhm exactly. just wished they give more things to goryo on zero evi

[violet narwhal]

I suppose, but iirc the devs don't balance much around zero evidence.

[white pivot]

Just eliminate every other ghost tbh

[ivory urchin]

dont worry i havent lost to a single goryo on my zero evidence runs. i've always managed to clear 23 ghosts before i get to it

[white pivot]

I don’t play 0 evidence runs a lot tbh

[ivory urchin]

funnily enough i play with breakers

[lime holly]

Mare, yurei, and jinn worse imo

[white pivot]

I probably should tho

[cold beacon]

I play with changing favourite rooms on high so usually I eliminate Goryo. But if it gets down to Goryo/Yurei/Mare I start to groan

[ivory urchin]

you did say you played 13x a lot. how does that work?

[violet narwhal]

Zero evidence is pretty much a challenge mode for extremely skilled players. As far as I understand the default difficulty is professional.

[arctic bobcat]

they should make it so liek goryos can be seen walking around on cameras without dots, but it’s like a 33 percent chance like a banshee scream

[white pivot]

That was for xp grinding

[ivory urchin]

yep

[ivory urchin]

you shouldnt say you havent played much 0evi

[cold beacon]

Something like that. They have made some concessions for people who play on limited evidence, like the Obake shapeshift and Spirit smudge timer.

[white pivot]

They don’t really count as real games tho

Why the kekw

[violet narwhal]

Honestly, guaranteeing its dots ability might be a decent compromise.

[ivory urchin]

yep that's exactly one of my points against CWW grinders

[lime holly]

like yesterday i had apoc3 settings ridgeview game and i spent like several minutes doing mare ability tests. Ended up choosing jinn but it was mare with 0 abilities and 7 room changes

It was very yikes

[ivory urchin]

same with the Filter users

[violet narwhal]

Since actually catching the bloody thing on a camera AND dots is tricky.

[white pivot]

I wanted that cool badge

[arctic bobcat]

ooof

[ivory urchin]

what could be a good goryo tell?

[arctic bobcat]

i want apoc 3 badge so badly is there like a strat people do???

[white pivot]

If it doesn’t change rooms? Idk

[ivory urchin]

goryos can move the bone ? that would be funny

[vernal yoke]

I was hoping this server would have a soundboard, I wanna mess with my friends

[white pivot]

Too hard to program I would imagine

[violet narwhal]

(Otoh, I got a Goryo on Nightmare today by intentionally checking with a camera in my hand. It is REALLY cool to see it in the camera and not outside the camera.)

[lime holly]

the easiest strat is to reset for optimal conditions, like deogen with repel, hunt, photo

[ivory urchin]

from what i know, Goryos are dead aristocrats or dead scholars, or someone prestigious. they should have made goryos with ghost writing to make it lore accurate

[vernal yoke]

I want them to be able to hunt in dots form like that old glitch rarely

[arctic bobcat]

fair

[white pivot]

I usually check in the truck

[vast crown]

when you walk into the ghost room and your character vomits, that's a goryo

[ivory urchin]

you cant even see them with dots projector during a hunt 😭

[white pivot]

I would not want vomit in the game that’s disgusting

[ivory urchin]

99% chance to make the actual player IRL to vomit too

[vast crown]

well, goryos are stinky, what you gonna do

[dense ocean]

Low-key give them a sound sensor noise

[white pivot]

GHOST BUSTERS

[plain shoal]

Goryo rework when

[ivory urchin]

ooooo that would be fun

[dense ocean]

Make the sound sensor actually worth using and complete the trio of audio items with special ghost tells:

• Deogen spirit box
• Banshee paramic
• Goryo sound sensor

[vernal yoke]

That's fine just let em be like 80% invisible like active camo rarely if they hunt from dots

[ivory urchin]

now sound sensors would not be useless

[plain shoal]

Real

[lime holly]

but there are players who can win just about every time no matter what ghost/location they get, but it takes a lot of skill and investment to reach that level that most dont have the time/patiencd for. If ur only goal is to get the badge, resetting for optimal conditions would be a lot easier

[white pivot]

Wait gor yo has a special sound for the sound sensor?

[plain shoal]

No it doesn't

[vernal yoke]

Goryo making the sensor go nuts would be cool

[cold beacon]

do we really want another ghost that's just "Wait for it to do the random thing so you can instantly confirm it"

[white pivot]

Some people said it did

[white pivot]

That’s every ghost but ok

[violet narwhal]

In a broad sense, Goryō (御霊, Japanese: [ɡoɾʲoː]) is an honorific for a spirit, especially one that causes hauntings, and the term is used as a synonym for onryō (怨霊, vengeful Japanese ghosts). In a narrower sense, it refers to a person who was a noble or accomplished person in his or her lifetime, but who lost a political power struggle or died prematurely from an epidemic or other disease, becoming an onryō that brings pestilence or famine and is later enshrined as a kami in Shinto shrines. For example, the "Sandai Jitsuroku" (a historical Japanese document) mentions that six Shinto shrines were dedicated to the worship of goryō, which were the spirits of those who died from non-natural causes. Later on, two more shrines were added, bringing the total to eight.[1][2][3]

Wikidump. Yeah, seems accurate that they were nobility and scholars.

[dense ocean]

It's either that or it gets some sort of tell during hunts that instantly confirms it anyways is it not

[plain shoal]

Sound sensors picking up unique ghost noises would be cool

[white pivot]

I don’t understand japanese

[cold beacon]

It's really not!

[fast agate]

you know like that aztec device

[white pivot]

It really is!

[fast agate]

maybe it could annoy the shit out of the ghost so it dies again and you win the contract by default might need a buff tho

[vast crown]

it's just like banshee and yurei basically

[white pivot]

Bansheet

[cold beacon]

On evidence Obake and Goryo too

you could count deogen if you really want

[white pivot]

They should add more special properties to banshee in single player, rn there’s only a scream

[stone ivy]

To be honest, the "remake" of the farmhouse map should have just been a new map added to the game.

[lime holly]

and it cant change rooms and its one of the 3 stalker ghosts

[violet narwhal]

....most evil tell

[vast crown]

it will repeatedly roam to you from the room?

[cold beacon]

And the targeting thing which is pretty important.

[lime holly]

I dont think banshee is hard in singleplayer

[white pivot]

In single player

[violet narwhal]

Goryo focus the highest-prestige character currently alive and a valid hunt target

[cold beacon]

Yep.

[vast crown]

banshee is way too easy in sp

[dense ocean]

Banshee will repeatedly roam to you from its room if you're on the same floor as it

[violet narwhal]

;->

[white pivot]

That sounds more like a wraith

[dense ocean]

Unlike the phantom roam ability the banshee won't leave an emf reading on top of you and unlike the wraith it'll trample salt on the way to and from the room

[cold beacon]

It isn't

[vast crown]

oooh that could be good

[cold beacon]

That's a bit meta isn't it

[vast crown]

i'd be target most games lol

[solar sigil]

had 3 candelabras lit. only 1 blew out before hunt. i thought onryo needed to blow all 3 out

[violet narwhal]

Would still need a single-player tell.

[pale kernel]

Lol let’s not troll because someone is going to post on Reddit and be like GUIZ I PROMISE ITS REAL” and we’ll get the whole “bone in the ghost room = goryo” BS again 😅🫠

[dense ocean]

The wraith can teleport on top of you, and leave an emf 2 at your reading. And unlike the banshee it won't trample salt between you and the ghost room

[plain shoal]

Oni, Wraith, Poltergeist, Mimic, Banshee, Phantom, Deogen, Mare, Yurei, Goryo, Onryo and Obake but ok

[lime holly]

mare is the worst for me. It used to be yurei but recently the yurei’s have been more nice to me with their abilities. Mare hasnt given me its ability in a long time, and even if it does I cant even tell if its a fake ability or a real one

[dense ocean]

Yurei at least has a soft tell with being trapped by a smudge. Mare is pure rng

[cold beacon]

If we count all of those that's still half the ghosts and not "every ghost"

[ivory urchin]

yep exactly. this is why i think they missed a very accurate lore on goryos and shouldve given it ghost writing

[solar sigil]

Onryo flame test. it DOES need to blow out 3 candles/firelights before hunting right? or can it blow 1 out then hunt?

[white pivot]

Idk

[dense ocean]

It's over half the ghosts in the game that have immediate 0 evidence tells but still not all of them lol

[lime holly]

I always forget about that ability lol

[violet narwhal]

Goryo are vengeful spirits that lost power before death. So it would make sense to have them prefer to attack players who are the most skilled/experienced.

@pale kernel - To clarify we're discussing what could be a potential tell for a Goryo for zero evidence.

[dense ocean]

Every third flame, so it can be 3 separate candles or 1 candle 3 times

[ivory urchin]

like i said, goryos wouldve been fun to get writing and have a goryo's own writing (that would be at least 1/2 chance)

[dense ocean]

They should legit just make mares move faster in dark rooms it would be so peak

[white pivot]

Or how about this, we just remove goryo entirely and get a new ghost

[cold beacon]

Going by player level though? That's a bit too meta for me. And takes some variety out of it.

[ivory urchin]

but hey goryos already have its own set of evidences

WHAT IF GORYOS CAN WRITE ON THE BOOK TWICE that would have been fun

[white pivot]

Hard to program I believe

[dense ocean]

A goryo is cool in evidence honestly. Only being visible on dots thru a video cam is a cool gimmick. They're only a bitch on 0 evidence imo

[cold beacon]

I'd sooner go by sanity or even add some soft strategy like a ghost that targets players who aren't carrying smudge sticks

[pale kernel]

Understood, however we see people take speculation and be like “this is how it works” It would be nice to have better tell though even if they recycle the blinking mechanic

[violet narwhal]

For the book adjacent idea. "Goryo's do not ever target books to throw, and will put them on a shelf or table if the player throws one."?

[cold beacon]

But even then I wouldn't really want more multiplayer-exclusive ghost behaviours

[white pivot]

So a moroi?
