[pastel quarry]

not hacks trust me

we are calling it the holy spinner

[cold beacon]

Your friend is cheating.

[white pivot]

I looked it up, it's like a 1 in 200 quintillion chance

[pastel quarry]

im not sure if he is smart enough for that

[cold beacon]

Off by a factor of about two hundred

[white pivot]

huh

[pastel quarry]

its got it wrong 3 times and now its like 24/27

[cold beacon]

The chance of guessing the ghost right 17 times in 20 trials is 1/39 sextillion. 39 sextillion is about the total number of grains of sand on the entire planet.

Your friend is cheating and being very very obvious about it.

[white pivot]

chatgpt lied to me

[pastel quarry]

it got it wrong again

[cold beacon]

ChatGPT is notoriously bad at math because it's a language model.

It's bad enough at hallucinating utter nonsense with the things it's supposed to be good at, but it's definitely hopeless with math because it's simply not built to be a calculator.

[white pivot]

it said the probability of getting a 1/24 dice roll at least 17 times in 20 trials is 3.48 * 10^-21

[wise oyster]

you want a binomial distribution calculator for probabilities

[pastel quarry]

im pretty sure he is being serious i asked him if he is cheating and to answer truthfully, he said no

[white pivot]

I couldn't find one

[pastel rampart]

he is not truthful

[pastel quarry]

its either holy or very very very lucky

[lost dome]

you need to double dog dare them to tell the truth

[cold beacon]

It's neither.

[pastel quarry]

triple dog dare

[white pivot]

it straight up told me 0% chance...

which I know is not true

[last drift]

I got 3.55×10^−21

[cold beacon]

Yeah because this is the kind of thing where most calculators quite literally cannot display that many zeroes.

[slender vector]

idk i used it to pass a course the past semester and it works if u use good prompts

[vestal ferry]

Its hard to accept the truth sometimes when friends are the ones doing the cheating

[wise oyster]

yeah 20 decimal places back is effectively zero

[vestal ferry]

Ask it to spell strawberry

[last drift]

the probability as a percentage is 0.0000000000000000000355%

[zealous frigate]

why does everyone insta kick prestige ppl AAAA

[cold beacon]

That sounds roughly correct.

[last drift]

I use gemini. i find it much better,

[ruby trench]

Got them crocs on

[slender vector]

i did it said strawberry

[last drift]

ask how many "r" in strawberry

[odd vale]

heh

[slender vector]

it said 3

[acoustic badge]

Welcome to public lobbies, ppl will kick you for any reason possible

[last drift]

lol mine syas 2

[cold beacon]

Again, the odds here are about the same as me saying "I'm thinking of a random sand grain on planet earth" so you catch a plain out to the Sahara Desert, drive aimlessly for thirty to forty hours, get out in the middle of nowhere, get a shovel, dig down for fifteen minutes, pluck out a tiny grain of silica from your hole and take it back to your car, show it to me and I go 'yep that's the correct one'

[zealous frigate]

😢

[slender vector]

mine is chat gpt plus

[last drift]

"The word "Strawberry" contains two "R"s." -chatgpt

[white pivot]

"there are 3 rs in strawberry"

[pastel quarry]

chatgpt says its a 0.0000000000000000000000000000301% chance

[ruby trench]

Lol darn phantom crawled towards me in a event as I was typing here just to poo in the sink behind me lol 😆 😅

[slender vector]

“There are three R’s in the word strawberry.”

[prisma laurel]

Probably they wear socks

[ruby trench]

Lmao

[slender vector]

“The probability of getting 24, 25, 26, or 27 correct out of 27 with random 1-in-24 guesses is so low it’s effectively zero — far below 1 in a billion.

To give you an idea: even getting 3 correct would be extremely lucky.

If someone got 24 out of 27 right, it’s definitely not random — either they’re using evidence effectively, using external tools, or cheating.”

[last drift]

nayways, your friend is very clearly cheating

[white pivot]

tbf, astronomically rare =/= impossible

[cold beacon]

For every conceivable practical purpose they are identical here.

[last drift]

yes, what that basically says is that it wont happen for many millions of attempts

[wise oyster]

statistically, it won't

[last drift]

but enough primates in a room with typewriters, you'll get shakespeare

[cold beacon]

1 in a million odds =/= impossible
1 in a billion odds =/= impossible
1 in 39 sextillion odds of a specific isolated trial where randomness is specifically being tested for = absolutely impossible

[pastel quarry]

i counted and its 14/19 correct so more beleivable

[last drift]

not even. 2/19 yes thats believeable

[vestal ferry]

[white pivot]

if you do get it correct, let's say 5 times in a row, it's not like your chances are lower the next few times

[pastel quarry]

more beleivable tho

[white pivot]

so saying it's impossible is not fully accurate

it's just very close to it

[pastel quarry]

yeah

[last drift]

4.41×10^−16

[cold beacon]

It absolutely won't. If every single person on planet earth did this test every hour, 24 hours a day, for a million years, it is still pretty inconceivable that it would happen even once

[last drift]

no itg's not. that s anumber with 16 zeros at the start

The probability of getting exactly 14 correct identifications out of 19 random selections is approximately 0.000000000000044136%.

[wise oyster]

5/20 random guesses would be a super lucky streak, but still conceivable. After 6 or 7 I just stop believing the the claim

[glacial stag]

[cold beacon]

The thing is that you've already told your friend that you suspect them of cheating because the odds are difficult to grasp, so what I would expect to happen is that the ""holy wheel"" suddenly becomes more-plausible-but-still-entirely-implausible

[glacial stag]

too much math here

haiyaa

[last drift]

HAIII

[cold beacon]

We've already established beyond any possible reasonable doubt that cheating is happening so the only thing that can happen is that they cheat more or less.

[wise oyster]

🔨

[white pivot]

i'm just saying, it's not like fully impossible

you get what I mean right

[pastel quarry]

yeah exactly

[glacial stag]

👀

[last drift]

IT LITERALLY IS, THATS WHAT STATISTICS SAYS

[glacial stag]

whats this discussion about anyways

[white pivot]

virtually impossible would be more accurate

[last drift]

"friend is using a spinner to guess the ghost and got 17/19 or some large number correct, is he cheating?"

[wise oyster]

your point has been acknoledged and roundly rejected

[pastel quarry]

my friend used an online spinner ang got the ghost right 14/19 times

without leaving the van

[white pivot]

i'm not sure why, I had a great point

[last drift]

it can be both impossible and possible. Pick one. It's impossible. in millions of attempts, itll never happen.

[cold beacon]

It is. Nothing is truly impossible. It's technically possible that it's some kind of exceptionally rare glitch where a website with a wheel can somehow influence the game's RNG. Or that our entire understanding of math and probability is faulty and nobody's noticed until today. Or that we all got transplanted to another universe a few minutes ago.

[glacial stag]

spin the wheel, guess and leave?

[last drift]

yes

[cold beacon]

I'd say all of these are more likely than 'they was just lucky' tho.

[pastel quarry]

yep

[white pivot]

close to 0 don't mean 0

[glacial stag]

yeah ima have to call bs on that until i see a recording of it at least

[white pivot]

just like if you have a really large number it's not infinite

no matter how big it is

[last drift]

"i reject your reality and substitute my own"

[cold beacon]

0 and infinity aren't comparable in that way but I digress

[last drift]

and some infinities are larger than others

[limpid swallow]

Has anyone else had the problem of not being able to speak to the ouija board and monkey paw if so how did you fix it without using the txt option

[white pivot]

A 1 in 24 chance means it’s possible. It doesn’t get “impossible” if you exponentially increase that

[last drift]

restart game
before joinging lobby
set speech recognition to off. hit apply
set to voice. Hit apply.
join single player. Test box and board and paw.

[cold beacon]

There is a point where something does in fact become impossible even if the chance of it happening is technically >0

for the simple reason that everything, ever has a >0 chance of happening,

[white pivot]

I mean think about it, they’re independent events, and each of those events is possible

[last drift]

yes it does. thats what an exponential increase does. it becomes more and more unattainable.

[wise oyster]

You should work on doing it

[white pivot]

Exponents can never go to 0

[wise oyster]

like right now

[last drift]

3^0 is what

[white pivot]

1

[lucid reef]

I came to check the weekly in pins. What is this convo

[last drift]

very good. now increase it

[white pivot]

Increase what

the exponent?

[last drift]

the negative value of the exponent. see if it gets smaller

3^-2 is what? less than two?

[white pivot]

3^-1

[limpid swallow]

Do i need to do this every time I start up Phas? It happens every time I play. my speech is set to push to talk and is on voice

[prisma laurel]

Chat doing math equations 😭

[white pivot]

You cant divide with infinity, it’s not really a number

[cold beacon]

You're immediately upon shaky ground upon "divided by infinity"

[last drift]

you're going to equally divide something into infinite pieces?

[cold beacon]

Technically I'd say it's NaN

Which isn't the same thing as 0

[white pivot]

It does get smaller

[last drift]

be careful,you're close to proving it approaches and reaches 0, contrary to your original statement

[ocean plaza]

multiply by google plex

[white pivot]

My point is, just because a probability is so low it’s practically impossible doesn’t mean it actually is impossible

[wise oyster]

Everyone got that point

[ocean plaza]

true

[last drift]

but statistically, is. thats the counter point

[heady torrent]

Move the math class to general chat or something

[cold beacon]

That's kind of the Mike Postle argument. It's technically correct, but you can of course use it to argue that quite literally nothing is capable of being impossible.

[last drift]

we're discussing phasmo probablilities which fits in phasmo chat

[hoary wind]

This is why I prefer meth over math tbh

Either way Goryos are stinky and need showers

[white pivot]

An example of something being impossible is getting a ghost that isn’t in the journal

[glacial stag]

phas chat the reason my brain aint completely smooth

[cold beacon]

Still a non-zero chance of happening though.

[hoary wind]

I remember I once got a ghost that wasn’t in the journal

[wise oyster]

Maybe Skynet hacked the game and added a new ghost.

[hoary wind]

So that debunked the entire argument and there’s no more math right

[cold beacon]

Maybe a glitch, maybe the developers trialing a brand new ghost type by sneaking it into random players games, maybe it's been in the game for years but with an astronomically low chance of spawning and you happened to be the first. Either way, still possible.

[ocean plaza]

what was the gamemode

because sometimes they hide info

[cold beacon]

What game mode?

[hoary wind]

Need to get the devs in here to see if they’re the ones that gave me 8 goryos in one night just to fuck with me

[lean solstice]

Istg if this mf is a mimic im gonna be so mad I hope I just completed apoc1

[hoary wind]

Don’t u want a mimic tho

[cold beacon]

After discovering that DK's favourite ghost is Onryo I now know who to blame for that streak of Onryos a year ago

[hoary wind]

Mimic is free in 0 evidence

[lean solstice]

Nope I did it it was a deogen I’m so happy

[hoary wind]

See if rather onryos bc they have a test

Goryos just a musty blob of nothing

[fervent bridge]

I don’t know why but same happened to me and no other ghost has been like that

[hoary wind]

Idk maybe a dev really likes goryos

[royal jasper]

Until it mimics a demon and blasts your ass

[hoary wind]

Hopefully it buys me dinner first damn

[vestal ferry]

More like goes rev then deogen

[royal jasper]

Actually that's happened to me, funny as hell, (I did not know about mimics at that point in time)

[vestal ferry]

Demon is easy enough at least

[cold beacon]

Rev then Deogen isn't actually bad at all, because you'll likely clock the difference in speed and move out. Something like Thaye or a low-sanity Moroi to Deogen is much scarier because by the time you realize it's a Mimic it might already be too late to escape

I'll never be more punked than the Wraith teleport into Demon ability I got on Maple Lodge.

[vestal ferry]

Lol. Theres many combos people can be confused by.

[pine plover]

i cannot get this shade to hunt

going for perfect game and it won’t hunt

[blissful gust]

hide in the dark outside of its room

[vast crown]

go somewhere at least 2 rooms away that way if it constantly wanders across the border of its room it won't be blocked from doing stuffs

[acoustic roost]

Is being a van jokey bad?

[blissful gust]

that depends on the situation

and how many people are playing

[vast crown]

if you just sit there and do nothing, yes, if you actually contribute to the investigation in some way, no

[blissful gust]

yeah

[acoustic roost]

Oh yea I'm good then 😌

[pine plover]

it still won’t

[blissful gust]

idk shades suck

[pine plover]

just burn the crusi

[cold beacon]

Not at all! It's suboptimal but can be fun to have.

Some people are less tolerant of 'van princess' playstyles. If your whole team is begging you to go inside, you should

I for one have nothing but support for van campers.

[acoustic roost]

I pay for all equipment, relay all information regarding cameras, motion sensors and so forth.

collecting all evidence relayed to me on what I cannot see to quickly the ghost right 98% of the time.

[wide rock]

#WeLoveIdentifyingGoryoEarly!!

[cold beacon]

It's fun for roleplay and while it's not "optimal" if I wanted to speedrun evidences and finish runs as fast and efficiently as possible... I'd just play single player?

[wide rock]

#WeLoveVanCamperz!

[odd vale]

You can actually develop some interesting skills being a cam vamper. Someone can drop a sound sensor and a vid cam and that camper can listen to speeds and watch blinks during hunts. And drop stuff off at the door

[wide rock]

I agree. I have never played the game to speed run anyway, chaos is the only source that gets me to continue playing the game

[vestal ferry]

Van campers helping the team all the time. Its great.

[cold beacon]

It always confuses me when I see people say that van campers should be banned or there should be a way for ghosts to kill anyone who stays in the van too long

[silk linden]

Does any other Xbox player have to restart their console to get in game voice chat or recognition to work?

[wide rock]

I wonder if you can identify a myling with a sound sensor, do you reckon it's possible?

[cold beacon]

People want an entire dynamic of the game simply eliminated

[vestal ferry]

Sometimes i still wish vid cam was only possibly in van.

Like. Sure. It helps single player now. But like. It did give a lot of merrit to van players. And t1 headgear was useful when it didnt attract ghosts.

[wide rock]

I love anyone that drops stuff at the door. I'm forever in their debt

[cold beacon]

Not in single player. I suspect it's not... but who knows.

My main blind spot with phasmo knowledge is always going to be MP-specific stuff

[cold beacon]

I'd go even further and make ghost orbs less consistent

[vestal ferry]

I dont mind orbs being better now.
Cause like pain but yeah just something to reinforce a type of playstyle seemed nice. And even in single player. Going back to truck was a strat. You go back to check orbs before heading back in with more supplies. It was a nice loop.

[cold beacon]

But I'm also someone who thinks UV shouldn't be 100% ' v '

[half harbor]

we are doing the pool table easter egg. we are following the steps. but nothing is happening

[cold beacon]

Did you throw in wrong balls? Wrong colours mayhaps?

The red one in particular is a common sticking point

[vestal ferry]

Then you arent following it properly. Needs to be correct order and colours.

[wide rock]

Do you mean like a 100% spawn rate or?

[vestal ferry]

If the ghost throws a random ball in. Then rip. Gg. Start again.

[half harbor]

we watched a guy do it on a youtube video. but nothing is happening

[cold beacon]

Yeah it should be 75% by default or maybe like 83.33%

[vestal ferry]

Skree. We need something to return that we only got to witness back in day when dk streamed before game launch.
Wall scratch evidence.

original rev evidence

[cold beacon]

I can do without wall scratches

I'm an emetophobe so definitely not bile

[vestal ferry]

I wouldnt mind it for UV for additional options on photos and cool things that can occur tbh.

Hear claw marks. Time to check the walls and floors for some glowy scratches~

[wide rock]

This would be kinda dope. It would eliminate obake's 25% ability to hide fingerprints though.

[cold beacon]

Yeah. Could lower the Obake's chances further to 66% or something if need be, whatever, but Obake's kinda okay as it is

[vestal ferry]

Not really. Currently in custom you can set fingerprint chances to different amounts. It first roles this number, then obake roles its number.

[stone forge]

whats the weekly challenge this week? is it no crucifix or incense?

[cold beacon]

Check the pins yeah.

[vestal ferry]

It only roles obake number if first number says Yes to UV.

[stone forge]

ok thanks

[stone forge]

3 evidence?

[cold beacon]

Yep.

[vestal ferry]

Yes thats default.

[stone forge]

oh ok

[vestal ferry]

Settings not stated assume proffessional default setting instead.

[stone forge]

k*

[wide rock]

Oh well, then that'll work then

[vestal ferry]

I still wonder why jumping from 180 seconds for finger prints to infinite is such a mult cut tbh. Not like it really changes much of things.

[cold beacon]

It's enormous right? Even if the %chance is really low

[vestal ferry]

Like its so freaking much. and doing 30seconds isnt even worth it compared to 90 seconds.

[cold beacon]

I play on 75% for fun and excitement. It adds a frankly pathetic amount of multiplier.

[glacial stag]

👀

[sinful igloo]

anybody else have a problem where like
you load in and it changes your game quality, 0 audio and also turns your brightness down
and also makes your curser invisible

is this a glitch

[odd vale]

You have NVIDIA?

[sinful igloo]

ahh yes, is it related to nvidia?

[odd vale]

Yep, let me post a pic letting you know what settings to change

[sinful igloo]

bless up, thank you

[sinful igloo]

just changed it, thank you!!

just updated my graphics drivers so it must have changed that setting too

(it was two years outdated)

[odd vale]

Yep! You're welcome! It should stop doing it now!

[zinc coyote]

2 years 😭

[sinful igloo]

I didn't know I had to do it manually 😭

laugh at me I deserve it

[vast crown]

[fast cloud]

😂

[zinc coyote]

I usually check every month personally

[ruby trench]

What did everyone get for the weekly! ?

[zinc coyote]

Idk i didnt do it

[cold beacon]

Demon, Demon, Raiju.

[lime holly]

Demon^2

[blissful gust]

demon, shade, goryo

[warped ginkgo]

Stay tuned.

[ruby trench]

Dang them demons 😈 but ya smashed it aye 💪

[ruby trench]

Nice nice! And good luck eirlixx hope it's a glad one 👍

[mystic agate]

revenant on weekly... good thing it didn't hunt lmao

[cold beacon]

Yep. 3 hunts, 3 deaths, $5000

The ghost hunting resources says voodoo doll can be used to confirm emf5, how does that work?

[clever flower]

I got my hand took

[cold beacon]

Every time you push in a pin (other than the heart pin) it'll cause an interaction

If it says you can "confirm" EMF 5 with it that's incorrect. It's simply a way to get quick interactions to potentially trigger it.

[heady torrent]

Thx

[bold wyvern]

[pine plover]

shade is the worst ghost

3 in a row

[bold wyvern]

Nah moroi or rev, phantom

[pine plover]

rev too easy

[west kindle]

moroi, revs and phantoms can be figured out easily but shades? nah

[pine plover]

yurei suck

[blissful gust]

goryo shade and yokai are the worst

[bold wyvern]

Oh u mean figure out Alr

[zinc coyote]

Jinns on 0ev with a broken breaker might suck more

[blissful gust]

fr

[bold wyvern]

In new update what was farm house update then the ghost room was in front of the door and I got all the evidence then I got shade and zero hunts even if it was night mare mode

But phantom is very hard to see and if gonna loop the ghost then u can easily die

[tiny flax]

guys i just completed all the achievements but did not recieve the badge can smo tell me why?

[zinc coyote]

load into a match and leave via the truck

[tiny flax]

thanks

[atomic briar]

anyone know what sanity you res at with high priestess card?

like what sanity it brings you back with?

[buoyant gale]

hella

[zinc coyote]

50 % iirc but i could be wrong, might be less

[wanton flower]

isn't there an easter event coming up? i didn't miss any news about it, did i?

[zinc coyote]

Hasn't happened yet

[pale kernel]

Easter itself isn’t until April 20, so it’ll probably come out around then

[broken shoal]

Hey, I have an issue with the achievement hunter/completionist card. earlier I done all the 53 achievements and today I got my doom slayed achievement, but didn't receive the achievement hunter card in my profile.

[cold beacon]

We'll be getting the first look at the Easter event on <t:1744920000:f> so not before then!

[pale kernel]

Enter a match, then leave with the pad from the truck

[cold beacon]

Should unlock after your next contract.

[broken shoal]

Yo...got it..thanks to everyone, you guys are awesome..thanks for the help, really appreciate it😀

[weary crane]

Can anyone help me on challenge mode for the weekly

[cold beacon]

What do you need help with? It's 3 evidence and the fuse box is available, so it's not an especially tricky one.

[weary crane]

Like play with me so I can finish it 3 times

[cold beacon]

You want #lfg-na for that.

[fluid nest]

when did phasmophobia add schizophrenia bro

[lavish gorge]

you might just be schizo

[fluid nest]

Oh

[ivory urchin]

bro i saw 3 ghosts

"you sure bro?"

*dude playing in singleplayer

[lean solstice]

What does it mean when the summoning circle won’t let me light it

[wanton flower]

your sanity is too low

go take your meds

[random comet]

Doe yokai have forced spirit box?

[cinder willow]

Don’t think so

[cinder willow]

I recommend 80% sanity and place a crucifix in ghost room to stop normal hunt

[lean solstice]

Oh right thanks

[cinder willow]

All good mate happy hunting

[random comet]

do banshee likes to say in the parabol mic?

[late epoch]

It's like a scream kind of

[cold beacon]

Banshees aren't more likely to make paranormal sounds, but they have a unique scream that only they can make.

[cold beacon]

And no, Yokai has no forced evidences.

[random comet]

Alright

Thanks

[zinc coyote]

[cobalt matrix]

gonna share?

[ivory urchin]

they have a 1/3 chance to let out a shriek

oh wait im looking at an old chat

hi guys how are you doing

[random stratus]

the most unique thing about the yokai is that he is deaf

[ivory urchin]

pass me the orange ones

[cobalt matrix]

hi

[tawny gorge]

How many seconds is Moroi stunned by the incense?

[wide cargo]

What if they made a feature where house could not be haunted and the faster gou find it out the more cash multi you get. For example if you had a 4x and left right away would still get 4x but over like maybe 10mins? It goes down towards 1 or even 0?

[random stratus]

7.5 seconds compared to the usual 5 i believe

[rocky gull]

Boo

[ivory urchin]

zero evidence zero sanity games would be hella easy

with extra extra money

[cold beacon]

If this was remotely frequent then just opening the truck and instantly leaving would be a really good and boring way to make money

Besides it would be really really annoying :>

[ivory urchin]

yeah afk winning

1/25 chance of getting tons of cash

[wide cargo]

Its relatively easy to fix frequency issue. Take the fastest loadup times and average game time and find a middle ground of what % you could do to make it not faster. You could also make it the higher multi is the less frequent

[ivory urchin]

in a developer standpoint, the balancing would be a nightmare, and that's like making the GHD look dumb for sending hunters to a location that isnt haunted

[wide cargo]

How many ghosts are there? This is already the case

[ivory urchin]

24

1/25 chance to get easy money by starting a game and leaving instantly

[wide cargo]

1/24 chance of a lot of cash already exists then

Make it lower and its not bad desogn

[ivory urchin]

if you intend to do that, you are free to do so ngl

but we just want to play the game

[wide cargo]

1/40 chance of spawning for example

[ivory urchin]

playing a game with no ghost is uhh not fun

imagine you want to do your Apoc 3

no ghost

very unlucky fella

no ghost on a blood moon

[wide cargo]

Your looking for evidence not every ghost would be haunted it makes sense for not eberything to be haunted

[modern mauve]

Balancing aside, I don't think in a game for hunting ghosts, we should have any games without ghosts

[pale kernel]

It just kinda sounds like you don't want to actually play the game and still get rewards if you want a "no ghost" mode.

[wide cargo]

Balancing is like the least of issue when game has 1/24 chance of being right, reallg easy to achieve weaker than that

[ivory urchin]

in a player standpoint, if you are expecting to find a ghost and you get nothing, that is a waste of time going around the game. considering it takes so much time before a room cools down even with breaker off

in a developer standpoint, balancing a cost and a feature where there would be a reward that changes through time depending on how fast you realize there are no ghost is just a nightmare. not considering how many things the game needs to consider

[pale kernel]

Also hello Marsh ❤️

[ivory urchin]

you have to look at a new feature both ways: one on a Dev standpoint and the other on a player standpoint

[ivory urchin]

hiiii allyyyy how's the night baby shift? is he training for his first apoc 3 run still?

[modern mauve]

Aly's kid is training to be a boxer

[pale kernel]

I'll send you the pic but we practiced being in the Baby Battle Backpack™️ and sitting at my desk (mostly so I could eat). He tolerated it for about an hour so we're getting there to have an Apoc3 buddy 😄

Hi Bourbon! ❤️

[modern mauve]

Howdy

[ivory urchin]

im thinking of a way how it would work and how good or bad things would be if you set a no ghost game mode on a game that revolves around a ghost investigation game

not to mention this is clearly a page copied from a roblox phasmo copycat

[ivory urchin]

that's an amazing battle backpack you have so adorable

[wide cargo]

Its not a no ghost mode... its a low chance for it to not be haunted and you have to use the evidence granted like any other ghost ...

I really like how you just pick the arguement with the least weight and use that to discard the opinion. "It kinda just sounds like you" didn't read anything I said

[ivory urchin]

hmm okay i want to dig deeper into that. what evidences would you get if there are no ghosts

there should not be any right

[wide cargo]

You act like stuff isnt and cant be added with it

[ivory urchin]

right now, the game allows i think 1:30 min before the room cools down

im actually trying to understand how you are thinking

dont act like this isnt constructive criticism

[cold beacon]

If you want the experience of a chance that you go into the house and it is technically haunted but absolutely bugger all happens, we already have that

it's called a Shade

[ivory urchin]

basically

[cold beacon]

And I'm not being flippant by saying that, I really do love Shade for it.

[ivory urchin]

im annoyed by shades but it shows how complex shades are

[wide cargo]

I don't have to have everything fleshed out, the basic premise is laid out, Im not sure what specific signs for no ghosts could or would be. Maybe evidence that seems faked

[fluid nest]

guys i got a name of the ghost called john doe

[pale kernel]

my friendo in Christmas, if there's no ghost/"haunting" there's no evidence to be gathered lol. It also just dismisses the whole point of the game. What would you say? "Your AC is on the fritz, that's why your master bedroom is below freezing"?

[wide cargo]

Like certain electronics could be rigged by people ect to go off

[fluid nest]

does it have any special abilites

[ivory urchin]

ah okay. anyway i want to let you know that it would be much easier if you can relay your idea in a more detailed way. AND i would like to note that we are not nitpicking your idea but giving you the general gist of how things would happen. no one is picking on your idea but instead we are sharing what the community might think of it

[wide cargo]

Theres no evidence to be gathered wouldnt exactly be true and acting like it couldnt be added. Youre the one being dismissive

[ivory urchin]

a no ghost game should not have evidences tho

[cold beacon]

I figure that we do indeed have contracts with no ghost in context, but they're basically 'edited out' and we can't play those contracts because it would be boring.

[warped lintel]

Does anyone know what this weeks weekly challenge is?

[cold beacon]

Check the pins yeah.

It's something that would almost fit better as a joke, like a custom difficulty option for "ultra-realism" that when switched off nothing paranormal happens at all. Just an empty house with no ghost and any guess is wrong.

[formal crag]

hi

[robust tiger]

a7d yl3b ?

[ivory urchin]

April Fool's joke my group of friends really wanted

[warped lintel]

Thanks

[pale kernel]

Just endless soundboards from Ghost Adventures "HEY DEMON ITS YA BOI" because an 18th century ghost would totally understand modern slang

[formal crag]

@formal crag how do i dounload the game?

[pale kernel]

You purchase it via Steam, Playstation Store, or the Xbox store. 🙂

[formal crag]

help plz

any other way?

[cold beacon]

Those are all the platforms it's on at the moment.

[pale kernel]

Nope, you need to legitimately purchase the game in order to download and play it.

[formal crag]

ok thanks

cya guys
thanks alot

[zinc coyote]

[ivory urchin]

hi grimm what's up

have you played phasmo again? or still wandering about

[pale kernel]

Morning Grimm ❤️

[zinc coyote]

Havent touched it for ab two weeks or so tbh, maybe 3
been a bit burned out

[zinc coyote]

heyo!
hows things?

[pale kernel]

Surviving, haha. Just watching Meik until the baby wakes up

[ivory urchin]

this is why you should stop eating glowsticks

[zinc coyote]

[hushed pendant]

maybe eat wood tier1 might be better for your stomach.

[pale kernel]

Getting your fiber in literally 😭

[ivory urchin]

i usually eat the t1 salt and chase it with t1 sanity meds

[rich geyser]

any april fools sillies that we know about?

[hushed pendant]

but.. t3 salt is charcoal based. taken from the very volcanic mountain :C

[pale kernel]

Ah, so down it AFTER I go on a 2 night bar crawl, got it.

[fluid nest]

i got a ghost named john doe, is it rare?

[ivory urchin]

oh i thought it was salt and pepper! no one told me it was some bourgeois salt

[hushed pendant]

it isnt rare.

[cold beacon]

As rare as any other name, really.

[hushed pendant]

pepper?! hell na. tasted it before 10/10 charcoal based salt. very rare and expensive

rumours have it that it is as rare as the name John Doe

[ivory urchin]

1/58 names to get john
1/91 to get doe so yes

[zinc coyote]

ive seen michael jackson a few times

[hushed pendant]

play enough games and you'll be able to spot "rare" names lol.

[cold beacon]

I never look at the ghost's name

[hushed pendant]

cause it doesnt matter. LOL

[cold beacon]

I'm sure I've got some funny ones but I just don't even check.

The last time I actually said the ghost's name out loud was probably 950 odd hours ago.

[pale kernel]

I mostly see people look at names if they're making content

[hushed pendant]

and i bet it didnt even reply or acknowledge you ahahah

[cold beacon]

I'm sure I thought it did.

[ivory urchin]

ahh all right i'll try to get some later

$15 dollars for a botlle of salt damn

[hushed pendant]

yeap pricey $_$

[ivory urchin]

any ghost with Marsh as its surname makes me go up and get all giddy

[hushed pendant]

and i like how players use or burn smudge when they r in the truck. they think its "free" 🙂

[pale kernel]

Watch enough cooking youtube videos though and you'll see folks justify $15 salt because clearly the flavor is "different" - I imagine upselling ghost hunting equipment is similar 😂

[hushed pendant]

i dont mind as i have more than enuf to spare. LMAO. but those low levels/just prestige... hahaha

[pale kernel]

"Nah dude, you're totally incapable of using the T1 salt in a line, only individual piles. Why? Because New Salt™️ pours easier since it's harvested from an actual haunted lake"

[cold beacon]

May as well be, but I have no doubts that people who burn all the smudges know it's not free.

[ivory urchin]

you know what i actually like the salt called tultul salt in my country. it's taken from driftwood and boiled on saltwater and milk what if i use it on phasmo

[pale kernel]

Milk?

[hushed pendant]

ive def seen some people burn them knowing that someone is paying for them.

[ivory urchin]

personally i burn the smudges and the santiy meds of people i dislike playing with or love playing with them so much

so if i play with someone and i dont end up wasting all their consumables in the truck... they are one lucky player

[hushed pendant]

premium ingredients.

[hushed pendant]

im only a millionaire :C please dont burn mine if u play with me lol.

[ivory urchin]

*uses all meds salt incense cruci

grim: eats all glowsticks

[hushed pendant]

can we then at least get the ghost right? :X hahahaha

[ivory urchin]

YES! MILK

[ivory urchin]

okay you are one tough negotiator

i'll make a mental note and think about it

[modern mauve]

My friends burn my smudges at the end of the game, and I'm like "dude, I only have $3 million left"

[ivory urchin]

okay bro lets burn some of your money shall we

[glacial stag]

👀

[uneven dagger]

hallooooo!

[ivory urchin]

omg its the two shorks

this is more rare than solar eclipse itself

[cold beacon]

Unless you live in Adelaide.

[ivory urchin]

hmm? why

[uneven dagger]

owo

[glacial stag]

uwu

[uneven dagger]

ovo

[glacial stag]

o v o

[uneven dagger]

it looks a little

silly.....

[glacial stag]

skree is silly yes

[uneven dagger]

silly skree

[cold beacon]

° v ° what'd I do now

[rain whale]

=^owo^=

[uneven dagger]

You silly

[ivory urchin]

poor skree

[fast robin]

Hey 🙂 is it true, that the Shade is the only ghost that can appear as a shadow form in summoning circle, jukebox and monkey paw events?

[sage crown]

edit: nvm for those cases only shade

[uneven dagger]

Ohhh

Does a phantom show on summoning circle?

[sage crown]

Yea

[uneven dagger]

Cool ty

[sage crown]

U can take a foto tho, n it will dissapear from it

[uneven dagger]

Yeaaa ty

Do they not show also on video cams during events?

[sage crown]

yea, every ghost should be visible trough the camera, unless its one of those non visible events in general

[north hamlet]

what about my name?

[tropic cairn]

I am yet to encounter a Michael Myers

[sage crown]

I have encountered some "Slenderman" named guy a few times

[north hamlet]

I've had a Lisa before, in fact my first game of the brand new bleasdale was named Lisa Knight

[sage crown]

Yea, Walter White is also crazy

[north hamlet]

I almost got a south park named but the name ended up being Eric Marsh, so close

[fast agate]

are there light bugs rn?

[sage crown]

I would be terrified of an Eric Cartman ghost

[sage crown]

You mean like graphical light bugs? or tied to video settings

[random comet]

Why do ppl crouch whenever they are looping a ghost?

[topaz star]

block LoS

[crude cipher]

fastest round in my life

we walked in and got all 3 evidences pretty much instantly

[livid mirage]

yo wtf im sitting in camp woodwind at 12x and it got so long that i started the timer and the ghost hasnt hunted for like 9 minutes

[random comet]

But don't they still see even if you're crouching?

[cold beacon]

Shade?

[random comet]

I had one time playing 0 evidence and walked in instantly saw an orb lol

[livid mirage]

i brought in a thermo to see if i am in the ghost room (shade perhaps) and the tables in cww are not the ghost room

[cold beacon]

Maybe an Onryo if you're camping firelights for vision or something

[topaz star]

not behind objects that block LoS

[livid mirage]

i turned off all firelights myself

[crude cipher]

maybe a shade

[silent kayak]

Do we know if ghosts seeing over counters and stuff was an intended change, or if it's a bug, this patch? Like the main looping spot on Tanglewood?

[cold beacon]

Since you can see orbs on existing cameras or over the gate or through windows etc, you can actually get a legitimate time of 00:00 without guessing this way

[livid mirage]

amazing we love the rng we absolutely admire it... it was a jinn

[cold beacon]

Unintended change caused by some performance improvements. A hotfix partially improved it and the full fix is being worked on now.

[livid mirage]

jinn that didnt hunt for 9 mins

[random comet]

I saw it on the hallway on tangelwood

[silent kayak]

Got it. Thanks!

[random comet]

So basically like 2-3sec maybe

[livid mirage]

im gonna be using this in the future as a "i once got a jinn that didnt hunt for 9 mins"

[cold beacon]

9 minutes is a very very long time. Would honestly double check your difficulty just in case.

[livid mirage]

its the usual 11.07x that ive always played on

i mean... since i started no evidence that is

[cold beacon]

I think if you unlocked the front door and immediately sprinted back to the truck it'd still be like 10... but yeah. A time of 0 is still possible with a 0 evidence Mimic

[livid mirage]

it was just rng prolly

[sage crown]

damn that would have to be in the millions

[livid mirage]

it was interacting and everything

[random comet]

Lmao yeah true only if you found the orb from the window tho

[livid mirage]

and eventing like hell

[sage crown]

Btw, I have always wondered if the ghosts stats relating to activity, events, roaming ect are somewhat dice rolled at the start of the game? Or is it purely random?

[random comet]

Do large maps drains less sanity?

[sage crown]

[modern mauve]

Yep

[sage crown]

nvm

[modern mauve]

Medium and large maps drain sanity slower

[sage crown]

I just checked it, it actually does yea. Nice

[ivory urchin]

im a bit late but yea its like the ghost is playing d&d

"can i do a ghost event check"ok you must roll 15

shades need to roll twice as it can fail events on higher sanity

Shade: rolls 15 lesgooo
DM: you need to roll 13 one more time for the event to happen

[modern mauve]

If I get an event so early into a contract, I'm more or less ruling out Shade, circumstances in mind

[ivory urchin]

yea i think "shades are highly unlikely now isnt it"

[sage crown]

Are the base chances for different actions randomized to a degree?

[ivory urchin]

hmm from what i understand it mostly depends on the ghost

i'm trying to understand the chances myself but rn i think there are 6 states so 6 sided die

[sage crown]

It just sometimes feels like each ghost has a slightly different personality, ghost types aside.

[ivory urchin]

hmm idle, roaming, ability, event, hunting, interacting

oh yeah definitely

if there are 6 states, oni has double chances of doing an event (iirc)

so that would mean idle, roaming, event, event, hunt, interact

since that is their ability

[sage crown]

Yea

[livid mirage]

man wtf man its a goryo in the red tent on cww and ive put a cruci in there and it keeps hunting from in there and it hasnt burnt it 😭

my objective is cruci and im sick of looping it 😭 bitchass goryo

[pine plover]

i had a shade hunt twice without burning my crusi

[late wren]

I hate goryos

[sage crown]

T1 cruci?

[livid mirage]

t3

[late wren]

impossible or a bug maybe 😄

[pine plover]

i had a thaye hunt like 30 times last night

[sage crown]

Is there any info on if new ghosts are added to the game?

[livid mirage]

ok i went in and put the cruci deeper in the red tent... if it walks hunts out of the red tent im gonna kms

[late wren]

no infos yet

[livid mirage]

YES it burned it lets go

quick 4.5k

and we go again

[south sentinel]

do people even like the camp maps

[sage crown]

For farming yea

[south sentinel]

#lfg-na

[south sentinel]

i just cant play them

just like... no

[sage crown]

Yea, love when its snowing in camp also

Literal hantu nest

[south sentinel]

[south sentinel]

insanity t1 equipment on sunny meadows goes hard 🔥

(please do not actually do that)

[livid mirage]

time to do it

[south sentinel]

do apoc 3

t1 equipment

[sage crown]

Sounds like adventure

[south sentinel]

time to do it in the middle of class /j

(my laptop wouldnt even survive the rest of the day)

[meager cedar]

Does the shade have trouble writing in the book 📖 not getting dots either for oni so it must be shade

[south sentinel]

are you in the room?

[meager cedar]

In and out of the ghost room in camp woodwind

[south sentinel]

dont be in the ghost room and just wait

[ivory urchin]

ahh ccw where the room borders are a suggestion

bring a sound sensor and wait in the truck

[meager cedar]

Its only been flicking the lanturn on i feel like it is the shy boy

[ivory urchin]

the only time sound sensors are usable

[south sentinel]

i dont think ive ever used a sound sensor

like ever

[late wren]

I hate it when people hide in the tent and dont get killed by the ghost because of the bug.

I hope they fix it finally

[sage crown]

I recently learned that it has different modes on it 😭

[meager cedar]

Sound sensor is good now days for hearing things on bigger maps i guess

[south sentinel]

that's only one of them

like 1 tier

[late wren]

parabol is perfect for the big maps

[south sentinel]

i think 3

i need to get the t3 paramic

[sage crown]

The monitor on it is nice

[south sentinel]

honestly the tier 1 paramic is basically useless

unless ur literally inside the ghost

[ivory urchin]

when im sick of the shade i just use one in the room

there is so much distrust from the newbie players that i have to get all 3 evidences just to show im not hacking

[south sentinel]

shades should face their social anxiety

[meager cedar]

I finnally got him to write it just took him a while i cant tell what is his room so much with the spot he choose is big behind the dark tents

[ivory urchin]

funnily enough that is like asking someone with insomnia to just sleep

[prisma laurel]

Just tell a shade to be not shy

[south sentinel]

ive had to mute insomniac people in servers to make them try to sleep

especially 1, he wont even try

[sage crown]

shade mentality

[south sentinel]

i love shades, they chill asf

[meager cedar]

Its similer to goryo how you cant get too close for comfort

[south sentinel]

goryo is just boring and annoying

shades are at least chill

[meager cedar]

Shades get more active as your sanity drains

[sage crown]

Im pretty sure if your in the room with a shade then it doesnt matter

[white pivot]

I don’t think that’s true

[ashen marten]

im looking to get better could someone teach me

[ivory urchin]

all ghost does, but shades wont do anything if you are in the same room as it is

[pine plover]

and still won’t when i’m 4 rooms over and in the dark

[south violet]

The good thing that in itself should be an answer

[meager cedar]

Yes and Losing sanity while outside its room makes it do more things

[ivory urchin]

as long as you are outside yes

just being outside the room does the trick

[vast tulip]

is there no weekly challenge update for this week? sorry if this as already been discussed

[pine plover]

not good for a perfect game

[main meadow]

This week's challenge is vulnerable, explanation in the pins you may need to restart steam if you haven't gotten it for some reason

[vast tulip]

I'm on console, i just looked at the wiki and it says it's still the ridgeview one

[meager cedar]

Mine was 13 willow st challenge

[main meadow]

It is Willow it's a new one

Same difference reset your console then

[vast tulip]

okay, thank you!!

I haven't checked my console yet, I'm just going off the wiki

[vast tulip]

👍

[meager cedar]

Still havent gotten platinum working for it

I gotta find each ghost type and beat them is part of it

[rare steppe]

I hate dots I hate dots I hate dots I hate d

[south violet]

The weekly challenge was a disappointment this week

[vast tulip]

how so

[ivory urchin]

you can check in the pinned messages. usually the mods/admins/trial mods post something around GMT 0

[south violet]

Was easy & they claimed "no hiding spots" while me & those I was with hid fine lol

[ivory urchin]

no official hiding spots

[vast tulip]

thanks! I figured it out. The wiki just hadn't been updated yet and I'm at work so can't check the game

[ivory urchin]

:)

[south violet]

Also could not get a perfect game once cause got the smudge objective with no incense

[native coral]

i hate when the game does that lol

[main meadow]

Perfect games don't really matter on the challenge mode it's like two extra bucks

[vast tulip]

eh, I don't really care for a perfect game in challenge mode since you get so many points for it and it's only 1.0 multiplier for the actual match

[ivory urchin]

hmm perfect game on challenge mode only gives how much? not even that relevant

i think its around 10?

[main meadow]

Perfect game 1x is literally pennies

[south violet]

Extra is extra

[ivory urchin]

not really that worth tbh

the faster i get my 5000 the better

[vast tulip]

I get it tho, I hate not having a perfect game otherwise

[native coral]

still fun to go for if you prefer to 🤷🏻‍♀️

[ivory urchin]

same. i really hate not getting it

i get tilted if i actually want to perfect all my games then the challenge mode doesnt let you have it

so i just ignore the objectives and just get the ghost

[vast tulip]

yesss, last week we kept getting photo of the ghost, emf, parabolic, like bruh come on

[modern mauve]

I've been doing Amateur recently, it's soooo slow

[ivory urchin]

yep that is why i prefer to skip objectives on challenge mode

[main meadow]

Isn't it like 4 games before you unlock intermediate

[modern mauve]

....you need 10 levels, you need around 15 games I think

[rare steppe]

You reallyyy like that emoji, don't you?

[ivory urchin]

you really hate that emoji for a reason?

i can use the emoji i want, thank you very much

[south violet]

Who dont love it ?

[ivory urchin]

[prisma laurel]

Nah definitely need them for extra money 💰

[ivory urchin]

bro's over here getting triggered by an emoji

[south violet]

Its a top 5 video on the internet also

[sage crown]

[ivory urchin]

10 bucks is 10 bucks i see

[south violet]

Even 50 cents is 50 cents

[rare steppe]

What?

[modern mauve]

This one I hate because it reminds me of a very unpleasant person who used this all the time

[ivory urchin]

no just asking because you said i really love that emoji by asking the same thing in reverse

[ivory urchin]

that's rough

[rare steppe]

I understand now

[ivory urchin]

*shoots buckets

[prisma laurel]

Enough for one item purchase 🔥

[ivory urchin]

the dude who shoots his shot after missing one
"i understand it now" and HE DOES

[sage crown]

[ivory urchin]

me when facing an oni

[sage crown]

Blood moon ghosts fr

[vast tulip]

me thinking Oni from DBD

[sage crown]

Actin like cod zombies

[ivory urchin]

ngl i never liked that game

[vast tulip]

it's probs my fav game of all time, next to Farcry

[prisma laurel]

I hope I never have a mimic mimic a deogen to moroi again

2nd damn time

[south violet]

Yikes a fake Deo

[ivory urchin]

worst is a mimic mimicking a rev into a deo

[smoky forum]

How many evidences do we get in the weekly?

[raw radish]

idk

[misty drift]

3

[smoky forum]

Okay thnx

[misty drift]

np

[manic minnow]

Does anyone have a list of easter eggs in the new bleasdale map ?

Bonus points for anyone whos found anything with text and written it down,

want it for editing a story/lore series that i have going and new maps thrown a huge spanner in the works and need everything to make it game accurate 😄

[wise oyster]

The 2 things I know of are the mail that has an Ontario postal code, and an ad in the newspaper for Nell's Diner in Tucson, AZ. The latter is thought to perhaps be a hint as to the new small map coming.

[modern mauve]

Interesting concept for a map, although I'm skeptical that it could have enough rooms for Phas

[wise oyster]

it fits the pixelated image, and it could easily be another indoor/outdoor one

[prime elk]

The Phasmophobia Development Roadmap can be seen below, or by following this link.

2025-Beyond Roadmap • Run -trello for Phasmophobia's Trello Board

[modern mauve]

Main area, toilets, kitchen, staff area, trash area outside come to mind

Maybe car park?

[serene creek]

Dat feel when you identify the ghost before obtaining the first piece of evidence.

[languid vine]

who knows when the apocalypse challange ends?

[west kindle]

it's permanent

[languid vine]

thank god

[serene creek]

I don't th ink they would have an achievement for completing them if it was temporary. 😉

[languid vine]

i did not know there was achivments for that

[lament depot]

Take a look at the event board in your lobby(its beside the truck/under the game floor).

[languid vine]

gonna be hella hard might need somone to tutor me through it

[plush basin]

Do I try the apocalypse challenge

[wise oyster]

or don't do it until you're ready for it

[random ridge]

Hello welcome to the Itsguy and ghost podcast today we are gonna talk about shades I hate shades he is super shy that he does not even exist oh no im not gonna get any evidence because of no ghost acttivity If shade actually shows up brave id start getting evidence BUT HE DOESNT

[torpid pecan]

whats good guys

[wise oyster]

Counterpoint: Shades are great

[languid vine]

what do you need to be ready?

[wise oyster]

At a bare minimum, being comfortable in 0ev 0 sanity games

preferably also familiar with Sunny Meadows, bonus points for practice with 150% speed ghosts

[devout brook]

Or get Deo

You can out-walk Deo.

[languid vine]

you want to walk me though the gameplay?

[wise oyster]

nope

[languid vine]

worth a try

[wise oyster]

fr, just keep learning one step at a time.

[west kindle]

there should be some good youtube tutorials, but I'd reccommend and wait until you REALLY have all t3 items

[languid vine]

ahhhh ok ok i will wait

what level do you perstige?

[west kindle]

If you get shit objectives, reset. And if you're going for apoc gold, good luck.
apoc bronze is already hard

[wise oyster]

100

[west kindle]

prestiging is optional

I'm at level 108+ and I don't want to lol

[wise oyster]

Get good at Prof > Try NM (or a 2ev custom) > Get good at that, try 1ev > Try 0ev > Try it w/ 0 sanity

[languid vine]

i got no clue what that means

[wise oyster]

I weep for your wasted XP

[languid vine]

ok what 0 sanity is

[true edge]

Is new challenge mode 3 evi

[wise oyster]

yes

simple game, just a 3ev run on Willow w/ T1 items

[languid vine]

i was playing with some people last night where it was 0 evd and there insane

[odd vale]

Get good at professional difficulty. Then try nightmare difficulty which is 2 evidence. Then do Insanity which is 1 evidence. Then switch to 0 evidence and then after getting better at that do 0 sanity.

[wise oyster]

oh dammit, sorry Mezzo

[prisma laurel]

Wat

[wise oyster]

My formatting was wrong and I linked the whole post

[slate shore]

thats actually so useful - the audio for speed

[odd vale]

You can add < and > at the beginning and end and it just posts a link without previews.

If it helps

[wise oyster]

yeah thanks, I found the mistake

[vale tulip]

Phasmaphobia was one of the few games that had a peak older version

[wise oyster]

Yeah it's packed full of super useful stuff. Just the Map Explorer alone is really impressive

[glacial stag]

smh

[wise oyster]

Look I may or may not have had the formatting example in an unsaved Notepad file that may or may not have been lost when my computer restarted.

[glacial stag]

[languid vine]

[languid vine]

i’m going to try

[west kindle]

goodluck

[wise oyster]

on the plus side, with just starter items, he won't lose anything 🤷‍♂️

[unborn lava]

This may be a bug possibly. But when a ghost hunts, is it possible for it to be completely Invisible?

[white pivot]

Ice cream and cake and cake

[white pivot]

No

[wise oyster]

DOTS hunt bug, perhaps

What ghost was it?

[unborn lava]

Fair point. Just had a banshee hunt me and my friend, completely Invisible and we could not see it

[wise oyster]

Yup DOTS bug

[ivory urchin]

If you dont hear footsteps, just grunt, it's definitely a dots hunt bug.

[wise oyster]

Ghosts w/ DOTS evidence (that's not hidden) can get stuck in their DOTS state during hunts/events.

[ivory urchin]

not the best ngl

[prisma laurel]

Might be a myling using quiet shoes

[ivory urchin]

Sneaking shoes

[languid vine]

phantom

[unborn lava]

Noted. We were completely confused as to why we heard footsteps but no ghost

[unborn lava]

It was a banshee

[languid vine]

fuck

[wise oyster]

Yeah been in the game over 18 months now...

[languid vine]

i have been getting this glitch where i would have this item stuck in my hands

like for one time i had the terror cards stuck and i died with them in my hand

and i still had them in my hands while i was a ghost

i could not pick anything up or put anything down

[white pivot]

What is terror cards

[languid vine]

what ever the cards are called

[white pivot]

tarot cards?

[languid vine]

tattet

yes

[white pivot]

You meed to work on your spelling

[languid vine]

[languid vine]

Ok ok how am I doong

Fuck I spelt doing wrong

[prisma laurel]

😭

[languid vine]

It bc its not vibrating when I type

Homework isn’t exactly my favorite thing. It feels like a never-ending list of tasks that can sap all the fun out of a day!

Wow I only typed I hate homework

I can low key cheat on my homework now with this

[white pivot]

Do not

Play jar ism is bad

[versed ibex]

Burger

[versed ibex]

I had 3 aneurysms trying to read that before I saw the previous message

That's certainly a way to spell plagiarism

[prime elk]

Oh hi

[modern mauve]

Finally home, time to continue my A-challenge

[north silo]

Are the obake 6 fingerprint 100% sure to spawn or is it a small chance ?

[modern mauve]

Small chance

[slate shore]

when you see it you will know !!!

[crystal dragon]

does phasmo support dlss 4?

[slate shore]

no it does not support dlss at all

[north silo]

5% ?

[slate shore]

much higher probably

[modern mauve]

1/6 iirc

[north silo]

if I light the light shut in the ghost room will it make him do more interactions ?

[desert chasm]

If you mean turning off the light yes

[modern mauve]

First game of the day gives me a blood moon, here we go

[north silo]

I want him to touch the door I wanna see the fingerprint of the obake to confirm

[slate shore]

turning off the light won't make him touch the switch

you just have to wait and hope he knocks opens a door or something else

[wise oyster]

What level you on atm?

[modern mauve]

Just hit 6

[wise oyster]

🥳

[modern mauve]

Can't wait until I get Smudges

It's nice to have something to shoot for again tbh

[wise oyster]

that's why I dont get people who don't want to prestige, if they actually like playing the game.

[modern mauve]

Same honestly, otherwise your level is just a number going up

[wise oyster]

The one thing I do get is for people who treat it like a party game, "I just want good stuff to play with my friends." Which bolsters my idea of a Party Mode where everything is unlocked but contracts award no money or XP, segregated from the main game.

[modern mauve]

I could see something like that later down the line

[wise oyster]

Yeah I certainly wouldn't want them to divert resources to that pre-1.0.

[mild field]

is there like
actually any benefit to that though

it doesnt take that long to unlock stuff

[modern mauve]

Prestige 0 it take a little bit

[wise oyster]

I tend to agree, but not everyone has the time/dedication/desire to put enough hours in the game to unlock everything.

[mild field]

so does any prestige
theres not that much difference

[modern mauve]

Prestige 1+ you have harder difficulties and maps

[wise oyster]

I've also watched some casual players return to the game after the big reset who just wanted to pick up and play but instead were level 1 and had no gear and nothing unlocked. "Party mode" would solve that

[bronze rose]

yeah its just that. i play it because i enjoy the puzzle aspect and the cooperation with others, i dont think its too unreasonable. the numbers going up have zero meaning to me.

[mild field]

yeah but the whole point of the leveling system is to unlock stuff

the party mode would just make it obsolete

[modern mauve]

Party mode you wouldn't unlock new cards, or cosmetics or other badges and stuff

You HAVE to play the "main" mode, I think that's the idea

[wise oyster]

It would be separate. You wouldn't get achievements, badges, etc from Party Mode. It would just be a sandbox to pick up and run around with stuff

[bronze rose]

party mode sounds perfect. id never play main again 🙂

[wise oyster]

idk, it doesn't affect me either way. Just thinking out loud

[modern mauve]

There we go, something for everyone

[bronze rose]

although tbh im already kind of playing "party mode" by not prestiging

[mild field]

i dont think party mode is a bad idea it just seems redundant

[wise oyster]

Yeah exactly this. Seeing and trying to understand people who don't want to prestige is what gave me the idea

[wise oyster]

That's fair, too. And for someone who's already P20 it absolutely would be

[modern mauve]

And for those who don't care to put stupid amount of hours for progression you don't care about, then party mode works

[slate shore]

i actually don't like how the best items are sort of overpowered
i would love it if we just had bad tools, etc, to make it challenging/difficult

[bronze rose]

it's not redundant - f.e. on playstation i havent unlocked almost anything yet, and not looking forward to it either, so i just dont really play it there

if there was a party mode, or sandbox mode or whatever it'd help

[modern mauve]

As someone who is currently playing through Prestige 0, it sucks

[wise oyster]

You can do that now yourself if you want. In fact there are player-made challenges that require only using T1 gear

iirc Megapoc is only T1

[wise oyster]

Groundhog Day: The Game

[bronze rose]

we play a lot with t2 stuff, as that seems to be the most "balanced" to me, difficulty and frustration wise

(no wonder - they're mostly the og ones)

it also doesn't help that some of the t3 items are just badly implemented in vr 😄

[languid vine]

to do apocalypse 3 does it have to be single player

[modern mauve]

yes

-apoc

[prime elk]

[modern mauve]

Hey Arceus, it's me, Bourbon. Please make this ghost interact with more things

I wished for activity and it's doing even less

[bronze rose]

maybe it heard 'passivity'

[modern mauve]

Yeah that was it

[wise oyster]

This ghost is a conscientious objector. ☮️ ✌️

[modern mauve]

It's gonna get a contentious boot up the arse

[bronze rose]

smudge it where the sun dont shine

[modern mauve]

I don't even have smudges

[bronze rose]

excuses 😄

[modern mauve]

OKAY, another perfect under my belt

[bronze rose]

lol 😄

[modern mauve]

Unlocked crucifixes and Brownstone

WELP, 5 seconds into the run, IDs itself

Guess which ghost

[charred bough]

Have the developers ever spoken about creating lore when the game officially releases?

[modern mauve]

-trello Lore is actually on their 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.

[bronze rose]

lore, omg

[vestal ferry]

Theres some lore as is. Which is neat

[charred bough]

Damn added only in 2025

[vestal ferry]

Gotta really look at environmental story telling

[modern mauve]

It's a Yurei

[bronze rose]

good guess 😄

[charred bough]

Any links to posts that have it all compiled into a digestible read?

Couldn’t find much in terms of things more than someone’s head canon

[wise oyster]

Not that I know of. It's too sparse and nebulous to compile much imo

[vestal ferry]

If youre talking about mine. :c its not really head cannon.

[charred bough]

I was referring to what I could find online

[modern mauve]

Level 9! with Salt!

[wise oyster]

The result of a head cannon: 🤯

[modern mauve]

Finally, things'll be a little quicker

[wise oyster]

Now you're talking. You spinning a wheel for maps or something?

[modern mauve]

....I take it back, Random gave me Brownstone

[modern mauve]

Yeah

[wise oyster]

that reminds me, NukaDave is live. Let's see where he's at...

Oh wow he's level 42, doing Insanity now

[vestal ferry]

Short version.
Patient 07 used to be at asylum for years. Was moved to sunny meadows, was tortured in isolation and was there for decades until being killed in some way.
Murder occured at campe maple lodge, dead body under cabin.
We used to be in a garage style place until it was overrun by ghosts.
Our company sells the cursed items and we are only 1 team and a second team comes and collects the ghost after us. Yes. Collect. Not destroy or anything.
Bleasedale is tied to grafton, where the granddaughter tried to prevent the haunting from happening in Bleasedale but didnt succeed. The grandfather got the gun apparently to try and save them. They left some time ago.
Time perception is an illusion for hunters and things seem out of whack due to this, cobwebs next to fresh cups of coffee and stuff.
Lighthouse has seen many hundreds of deaths and the ghosts still linger there, visible under specific conditions.

[modern mauve]

...the mirror, should I even risk it?

[wise oyster]

Do you have sanity meds yet?

[modern mauve]

Nope

[vestal ferry]

yes

[modern mauve]

It'll probably cost less sanity finding the room with the thermo

[wise oyster]

Paramic? Sorry I don't remember when anything unlocks

[modern mauve]

I do have the paramic

[wise oyster]
