phasmo-chat

[snow coral]

are some ghosts more common than others i swear i’ve gotten like 6 obakes today in 11 games

[zinc coyote]

its all the same chance

[pale kernel]

Welcome to RNG 😅 it’s all the same but dice rolls can be crazy sometimes

Hi Grimm ❤️

[zinc coyote]

Heyo Alyzzi!

[wide rock]

Despite it saying that spirit is the most common ghost type, they all have the same chance.

[glass dome]

What’s differs a yurei during a hunt?

[wide rock]

During a hunt - absolutely nothing. It's a completely normal ghost

[magic tiger]

Yureis should have a low chance to fully close/open doors during hunts.

OR
have a very small chance to hunt without the front door locking.

[hazy plaza]

Anyway

[hazy plaza]

Identify a Yurei, pay attention to its sanity-draining abilities and door interactions outside of hunts

[wide rock]

I believe any ghost can completely close a door during a hunt. The yurei ability only occurs outside of hunts to my knowledge.

[wide rock]

Any ghost can also close a door completely during a ghost event as well

[ivory urchin]

ok people lets be civil shall we

[wide rock]

Your username reminded me. I had a banshee that wouldn't use their ability for 15 min today 😭

[drowsy shale]

this guy has to be satire right

[hazy plaza]

No, Just being real

honesty is best policy

[pale kernel]

Instead of roaming, it just turns on the shower repeatedly, trying to tell us something

[wide rock]

[ivory urchin]

hi allyyy how is the baby duty doing?

[pale kernel]

Hellooo. Winding down, hubs is taking the first half and then we swap at 2-3am. He’s 1 month old today!! I’ll DM you pics ❤️

[hazy plaza]

oop well this isnt rlly about phasmo

[drowsy shale]

yall i just had a mare that didnt use its ability a single time the entire game 😭😭😭

[ivory urchin]

OMG HE'S ONE MONTH OLD NOW AAAA the youngest Gold Apoc player

[pale kernel]

I admire the folks who do Apoc3 over and over again and manage to get the mare to flick a light switch. I’m too impatient on professional, I can’t imagine 0 evidence ☠️

[hazy plaza]

loll

[ivory urchin]

hey guys can we just chill for a bit? let's all be friends here shall we?

[hazy plaza]

Okay

[drowsy shale]

people saying goryo is the worst in the game havnt got a mare that doesnt wanna do its ability lmao

[pale kernel]

I did get one solo Bleasdale in yesterday. I bought a new ring sling/carrier to try out for Apoc runs

[drowsy shale]

ive only had do to the apocalypse challenge 3 like 2 times cause i got it second try it was a mimic i got so lucky

[pale kernel]

When I watch Leona and Justly do their runs, they use motion sensors to track the roams for Goryo which I thought was cool.

[drowsy shale]

ive never even thought of that ngl thats a good idea i gotta try that

[quick cloud]

everyone has their own way/pattern of playing, which is pretty cool tbh

Madixx Leona and Justly all have their own way of playing

[barren nest]

Gotcha

[pale kernel]

I’ve been watching a lot of Lisa, Meik, and NukaDave since they’re usually on when I’m watching the baby. I’ve run through my Netflix and Crunchyroll lists so it’s nice to break it up 😅

[ivory urchin]

it's always the worst when your Netflix and Crunchyroll lists have been exhausted.

cant rewatch old series now, cant rewatch phas vids you have watched before

@pulsar mulch #1082421799578521620

[blissful gust]

that’s why i hate mare

[naive inlet]

@analog bone May i join you?

[south violet]

Mares are the worst!

[blissful gust]

if they don’t want to do their ability it’s sooo hard to figure them out

[cold beacon]

Mare's annoying because it doesn't really do anything unique

[random stratus]

Except the light switch thing that all siblings do

And then also leave the door open ofc

[cobalt matrix]

doesn't it flick light switch

like nosferatu

[random stratus]

Yes, like Nosferatu

Except Nosferatu does it more often, a mare does it once every blue moon

[cold beacon]

It does, but any ghost can flick light switches.

[random stratus]

yeah i had this happen to me only once before, it turned out to be an Oni or some shit

[real quiver]

where can i report cheaters?

[worldly hamlet]

where is the monkey paw in bleasdale?

[cold beacon]

I have a clip of a Moroi turning off the light three times in five seconds

[cold beacon]

Study, back left corner.

Back right corner? The opposite corner to the door.

[random stratus]

now that's just embarrassing, the Moroi is doing the Mare impression better than the mare itself 💀

[random stratus]

hell i didn't even know the spawns BEFORE the rework

[worldly hamlet]

LMFAO

[random stratus]

i mostly play on tanglewood, ridgeview, and edgefield

[worldly hamlet]

nice :p

[loud urchin]

👋

[versed ibex]

[worldly monolith]

Same here I got a banshee scream 3 seconds after using the Para mic 🤣 then a singing ghost event 5 seconds later. Challenges were photo, emf evidence and firelight. Which all 3 got finished during that one ghost event 🤣

[south violet]

I have a clip of a demon setting off a polti boom

[eager pier]

bookshelf in the study

[woeful grotto]

i just won my first custom 10.40x game

the very first one i unlocked as well

was a spirit

[cold beacon]

Well that definitely shouldn't be possible.

Might have thrown something at the bottom of a pile

[random stratus]

highly unlikely

[woeful grotto]

you can see hantus breath right

[smoky forum]

When the breaker is off

[woeful adder]

Really hoping they fix the ghost tracking you in Easter update, closets are useless when the ghost walks by and they just kill you

[zinc coyote]

They smell you

[prisma laurel]

Didn't close the door shut

[royal jasper]

If you do gold apoc challenge, do you get the other two trophies as well?

[cobalt matrix]

Yuh

[ivory urchin]

yes you do

unlike way back then

now you instantly get them all if you do get the gold apoc

[south violet]

cool

[fluid nest]

god dang

phasmophobia players are allergic to having minors in their lobbies

i havent joined a singular lobby without getting kicked

[noble rock]

everyone should avoid this player

[cold beacon]

Considering trolls love votekick systems I don't know if that would be any better. Do report them in-game and leave, though we can't really allow people to make callouts here

you can send additional evidence to @violet nova if needed

[noble rock]

true but usually its only ever one troll and can i ask for a place where we can post and call these out because i have played phasmo since it came out and this stuff is always happening and its annoying 😦

[south violet]

I do....

[ivory urchin]

oh boy i remember the days where you join a game then you get instantly votekicked in L4D2 Versus lobbies lmao

[cold beacon]

The best place is the in-game report screen! The reason why we don't allow callouts is that you can imagine that trolls would use it to "callout" people who did nothing wrong.

[noble rock]

haha that game i kind of miss playing that game and l4d

[cold beacon]

You'd see your own name posted in it with people saying that you're a hacker, that you're saying horrible stuff in voice etc etc.

[noble rock]

yeah i understand

just really annoying that these players do these things

[cold beacon]

Nothing's changed there. I genuinely think the #1 reason L4D2 doesn't have a big community these days is that its completely impenetrable for new players because they get instantly booted 90% of the time.

[ivory urchin]

yea only the PVE lobbies are okay

[cold beacon]

L4D2 players basically closed up shop and said 'sorry no new players wanted, you missed your chance' and it's been radio silence ever since

[ivory urchin]

it was like that even back in 2009 for L4D

first couple months people only want to play with other people they want to play with

[noble rock]

wow really so l4d and l4d2 gone?

[cold beacon]

If you have a friend to block kickvotes and get a little bit lucky to not encounter trolls it's still IMO the best co-op game ever made. But if you try to get into it as a new player now by joining random lobbies... it's really really rough. Even in campaign.

[ivory urchin]

anyway im gonna be the one to steer back

[cold beacon]

wise

[ivory urchin]

if phasmo has the votekick thing, it wont be good for newbies

[noble rock]

oh also the report screen in game doesnt always work wont let me submit majority of the time

[ivory urchin]

they play in, someone forget to kick them

[worldly hamlet]

where exactly is the study? sorry still new to the map

[ivory urchin]

votekicked instantly. i dont think that would be a good idea

[random stratus]

yeah its gonna discourage a lot of new players from wanting to play co-op with randoms

[cold beacon]

First floor, up the stairs, down the hall. It's the door to the right of the way up to the attic.

[noble rock]

wow i thought they be still going thats really shocking

[worldly hamlet]

ohh thanks!

[cold beacon]

I wouldn't want votekick because trolls love votekicks and they would be grinning from ear to ear to be handed a new way to ruin the game for others

[eager pier]

when you walk in itll be the back wall behind the chair

[cold beacon]

Maybe host kick would be nice but still very abusable.

[ivory urchin]

me personally im still waiting for a comms hotkey like how they do on l4d2 or old CS

ZXC, 1-4, 1-0

room, action, evidence, ghost

i think that would be nice for non mic players

[worldly hamlet]

would be nice for the host to kick in game

[noble rock]

yeah a host kick would be good but maybe like its limited to how many they can do

so they cannot do that

[cold beacon]

The last thing Phasmophobia needs is being able to spam voice lines

[random stratus]

that's one way to guarantee the downfall of a game community

[cold beacon]

I'd straight up never play multiplayer again if that got put in

[noble rock]

actually tbf i wouldnt ever play phasmo again if that got put in

i boycotted phaso when they brought in the prestige levels

[cold beacon]

You boycotted Ascension?

[random stratus]

i don't think phas needs that honestly, having voicelines feels really out of place for phas

[random stratus]

is that a bo1 reference?

jk

[ivory urchin]

hmm true but i was thinking of a text comss

marsh: Door opened here

[cold beacon]

Not me training at the PHD lander...

[noble rock]

i refused to play because i been playing from the beginning and i worked hard on my level then it got reset was a tad upset LOL

[ivory urchin]

marsh: Monkey Paw here

[crisp rain]

best training spot

[ivory urchin]

something like that, not the voice lines

[random stratus]

im glad i can say this without looking weird, but i fucking hate the monkeys, those assholes keep stealing my FUCKING perks

[cold beacon]

I think part of the vision was that all communication is diegetic - i.e, your own voice. Text recognition was somewhat of a necessary compromise.

[ivory urchin]

i can definitely see people spamming voice lines. text chat should have only fixed comms and have cool down

[ivory urchin]

ahh i can see that

[random stratus]

although tbf, Skree, i think we can both agree that without the monkeys the map would be way too easy

[cold beacon]

If you could telepathically beam text into other player's minds that would interfere with the diegetic vision

[ivory urchin]

yea i guess if that is the case, text comms would completely be bad

yea u right

i completely agree

removes all the immersion

[cold beacon]

Text recognition aside Phas still doesn't have any non-diegetic mechanics

[daring meteor]

Why is it half way in the game i kick on single player "online service error has occurred" im not a newbie im prestige 8

[cold beacon]

There's no HUD or anything

it doesn't even have so much as a "press any key" splash screen

[cold beacon]

Do not pray for easier maps, my frienda. Pray to be stronger men. ^ v ^

[noble rock]

this is why i play zero evedince its much harder lol

[random stratus]

"Do not pray for easier maps, my friends. Pray to be better trainers"

[random stratus]

i play 2 nightmare, rightfully named because most of the time its basically insanity because the ghost refuses to give me two evidence

it gives me one and then goes "oh you thought you were getting two? haha...no... anywho goodluck 🤷 "

[noble rock]

hahaha

hey i have had a demon that hasnt hunted for 3 minutes

that baffled my head

[cold beacon]

not that surprising above 70% sanity

even at 0% sanity demons aren't really more aggressive than any other ghost

[random stratus]

i thought their whole thing was being able to start hunts more frequently?

and earlier

[cold beacon]

It is, but that comes in two forms - a high hunt threshold (70%), and an uncommon ability that lets them start a hunt whenever

[noble rock]

yeah its meant to but i was playing 0 sanity and zero eveidence and this demon tricked me i thought it was a spirit

[cold beacon]

if you're above 70% sanity it can still take quite a while for them to use their ability so there's no certainty it'll hunt early

[random stratus]

"uncommon ability" is understatement of the fucking century, I've seen it ONCE

[worldly hamlet]

i had a demon today almost trick up into thinking it was a shade

[cold beacon]

at 0% sanity every ghost has the same chance to hunt, so a demon and shade aren't really any different there

[random stratus]

GIVE ME MY FUCKING DOOM SLAYED ACHIEVEMENT

[cold beacon]

demon does have a slight edge because it can still use its ability, but its not a big difference

[noble rock]

see i always thought they had to hunt no matter what because its 0 sanity but i guess i was wrong

[cold beacon]

I get early hunted by Demons all the time. One of the only ways this game can actually pump some adrenaline into me still

[random stratus]

oh yeah, someone who was higher prestige than me thought it was a demon, it was a shade, i was right and they were wrong

that made me feel smart as fuck

[cold beacon]

No. Usually the ghost will hunt pretty quickly on 0% sanity but there's no guarantee and it's not that rare to be waiting several agonizing minutes

[noble rock]

yeah i hear that i aint scared of the game anymore but every now and then it will throw me a jump scare

[cold beacon]

I think the chance of a ghost succeeding its roll to hunt scales linearly from their hunt threshold (usually 50%) to double the chance at 0%

[random stratus]

yeah i get what you mean, its the same for me... until i played the bleasdale rework and was getting chased by a deogen, but i had no clue where to go, and i got stuck for a split second, Skree i forgot the last time i felt fear like that

like i genuinely had no clue where to loop it

yeah yeah its slow, but i didn't know the map

and got stuck

[cold beacon]

Does happen. Usually if I'm playing multiplayer I'm kind of sandbagging anyway, but I always let people be wrong instead of fighting them over it, because a) why ruin their fun? and b) if they aren't wrong i'm going to look like a total asshat...

[noble rock]

i havent tried new bleasdale yet i am still upset old asylum left

[ivory urchin]

i think i got a demon who hunted after 5min of a smudge timer. i chose banshee bro indeed was the new banshee

[noble rock]

i loved that map

[cold beacon]

I had a similar deal but I just ran to the same place I've always looped deogens in bleasdale - the dining room. ol reliable

[noble rock]

😂

[random stratus]

yeah who would do that? who would try to convince their teammates that its one ghost when their teammates think its another...

im that type of guy-

[wide rock]

the classic "oh yeah i think its that too" - picks a completely different ghost

[cold beacon]

One of my favourite multiplayer experiences was watching two people get really heated over the ghost type

[random stratus]

but, in my defence, its because 9/10 im right about the ghost, so

[ivory urchin]

me i explain why the ghost is why this ghost, i make it into a very teachable moment if i can

[cold beacon]

name calling, getting personal, the works

and I'm sitting there in the van with a big beaky grin on my face knowing they're both wrong ' v '

[ivory urchin]

"oh this ghost is probably a thaye because-" no its a raiju

^ THIS, im not like this

[cold beacon]

I just said "Well i'm going oni" and then they disregarded me and kept fighting.

[ivory urchin]

i wont cut them off

[cobalt matrix]

i try not to do that

[noble rock]

haha i do this to people who dont help me and sit in the van

[ivory urchin]

instead im gonna say "lets try again next hunt and turn off all electronics in the area"

[ivory urchin]

yea that is the worst thing we can all do to other players

let them probably learn how to check for themselves

[noble rock]

i act like i dont know what i am doing

[glacial stag]

Goryo, i saw dots. o v o

[ivory urchin]

goryos suck :p

[glacial stag]

🔨

[noble rock]

yeah i aint keen on goryo

[random stratus]

yeah, another time i was playing with my brother and friend, the ghost changes room, right? we do not realize at first, but i hear something in the basement (this was tanglewood), so i go to check out what the noise was, and checked the temp, turns out it was in the basement now, so i see the temperature and decide to go back up, before i even TURN AROUND, it starts a hunt, and i went "its hunting, its hunting!, ITS HUNTING"

[noble rock]

they can take forever with dots

[random stratus]

such a boring ghost

[ivory urchin]

i used to do this but someone saw me streaming on discord getting the ghosts correct (im streaming it for a friend) and got asked "why didnt you say anything"

i just said eh i dont want you guys to ruin your fun

my old friend said "losing isnt fun, i like winning more" so yeah i got working

[noble rock]

yeah easy to tell to they dont change their room

[noble rock]

😂

[random stratus]

the ghost basically went "oh you think i switched rooms? here, let me confirm it for you"

[ivory urchin]

yeah they all got 400 or something while i got 1700

[random stratus]

and this wasn't a standard speed ghost... it was a raiju... there was a thermometer in the room with it... i was in the same room as it when it started the hunt...

its fine though, i love raijus, such a cool and unique ghost

honestly, the Raiju and Hantu are my favorite ghosts, just because of how unique they are, and the concept of their abilities

[ivory urchin]

yeah hantus are goat

[random stratus]

Raiju is #1 though, easily

[ivory urchin]

the gooooatttt

hmm okay we can agree to disagree

🤝

[random stratus]

i agree with this

[ivory urchin]

i dont understand why people cant agree to disagree that we all have our opinions and likes

the only thing i dont understand is people liking goryo

ehem coughs @glacial stag why do you like goryos huh

[random stratus]

well yeah, i understand your opinion and where you're coming from, it makes sense

[glacial stag]

hmmm

[random stratus]

those people exist?

[glacial stag]

it all @cold beacon 's fault

[ivory urchin]

yea nelson is one of them

HAHAHAHA it was all you @cold beacon

[glacial stag]

it because of skree i like goryos

[random stratus]

what method of brainwashing is this

[glacial stag]

uh

mtn dew and dorritos

[ivory urchin]

skree used the forbidden genjutsu

goryo enjoyer

[cobalt matrix]

genjutsu of that level doesnt work on me

[ivory urchin]

as a rev enjoyer you wont

but wait til you see this new goryo skill

*death to boredom

[polar prism]

why was the thaye invisible when it hunted?

[glacial stag]

dots hunt bug

[ivory urchin]

it's probably the DOTS hunt bug

you hear the grunt, but no footstep sounds

[polar prism]

there was no grunt no footsteps i only saw my flashlight flickering than all the sudden i died

[ivory urchin]

oooo that is new

[glacial stag]

i just accept my death

when it a dots hunt

[ivory urchin]

i just hold my handy dandy T1 dots

i am safe from death. I AM INVINCIBLE

kidding aside, if its a DOTS ghost I place one DOTS Projector on my Loop spot

just in case, you will never know when it will get handy

[cobalt matrix]

are you sure?

[echo fossil]

@cobalt matrix i got dots

[cold beacon]

what'd i do now

[glacial stag]

ur the reason i like goryos so much

[cold beacon]

how so

[glacial stag]

mtn dew and doritos

[cold beacon]

wot

[glacial stag]

remember when i asked what would each ghost type's fav food was?

[cobalt matrix]

nice

[cold beacon]

oh right, i remember

goryos have gamer gremlin energy

[glacial stag]

fueled by mtn dew and doritos

[cobalt matrix]

phasmo collab when? doritos changed to gorytos

[glacial stag]

get me a phasmo waifu shaker cup

[fluid nest]

why are phasmophobia public lobbies always so horrible

[glacial stag]

uh

[cobalt matrix]

because they are anonymous strangers with free will

[glacial stag]

sure

[ivory urchin]

I AM INEVITABLE

[ivory urchin]

uhm wha- im not gonna judge

i have already judged you enough for liking goryos im gonna stop there (kidding in case someone thinks im serious)

[foggy smelt]

I dont know why but sometimes i play on vr

But its lag so much

[ivory urchin]

what is your pc spec?

[oak junco]

hey guyssss

man i've been playing this game for over 4 years now and i didn't even join the discord... such a shame

[wise moss]

And here I thought I was the only one… I was like I’m good at identifying ghost lets drop it to 2 evidence then proceed to get my cheeks clapped by ghost who only give 1 evidence or no evidence 🤯🤯🤯

[livid mirage]

i mean... if its dots or freezing temps they can be a pain to get... other ones are pretty straightforward

even dots i'd say show up relatively easily unless goryo

freezing temps i find very difficult to get if the ghost is roaming, but if its not roaming, even freezing becomes straightforward

[hard kelp]

What the weekly challenge rn

[smoky forum]

Vulnerable in 13 Willow Street

[cold beacon]

check the pins, yeah

[smoky forum]

So practically no protective tooks

Like incense crucifix etc

[hard kelp]

[south violet]

Ok 👌

[worthy hinge]

Last night I was playing with my brother and sister and we encountered a shade, we got freezing temps and ghost writing, relatively quick but It refused to give us the EMF 5 for some reason. It didn’t hunt at all when we were in the house but the second we left it was like the shade was throwing a house party with the activity monitor, and we had a OBJ to take a picture of the ghost so I used the music box to make the ghost more active and the rest of my team was in the truck I got my neck snapped in 0.2 seconds I didn’t even have a chance to drop the box to get a picture… she spawned on me and killed me instantly. 😂😂

[ivory urchin]

that usually only happens when you dont have enough sanity to use the music box haha

[south violet]

I was about to ask if it actually does, maybe it’s Time I play phas, I haven’t played it in awhile

but maybe when I’m actually well rested

[worthy hinge]

Yeah it didn’t help that we used the rest of the sani meds and there was no more left when that happened, I kinda had a feeling that would happen 😅 so I kinda did it to myself, I told the other 2 people to wait in the truck so they wouldn’t die so I was solo in the house when it happened

[ivory urchin]

dont worry! happend to the best of us! (this happend to me for more than 5 times now ) i keep on forgetting what would happen

[zinc coyote]

what was dobby doing in ridgeview

Hiding behind the fridge

[cobalt matrix]

he deserved the kick

Ppl are still doing the corny scoobydooposting in lfg

Gotta wonder if it actually works

[chrome garnet]

Can a mimic mimic a hantuahs breath

[wise oyster]

yes

[cobalt matrix]

not the hantuah

😭

[rigid reef]

Sure can. I had a mimic mimic the yurei double door touch yesterday and the oni hunt blinks the day before.

[wise oyster]

literally everything except non-mimic evidences, including Spirit/Demon smudge timers

[bronze tide]

I feel so dense me and my friend have been like arguing about the yokai and yurie cuz I thought she was saying yokai as yurie and only today did I find out they're different ghosts

[serene creek]

MAres can't turn on the TV right?

[wise oyster]

Officially: They can. In practice: Probably cannot (bugged)

[serene creek]

Good to know

I've narrowed this ghost down to Spirit, Polter, Yokai and Twins then.

[west kindle]

polter mentioned

[serene creek]

It is probably a spirit. Smudged, and hasn't hunted for over 3 minutes.

[glacial stag]

i just saw the latest phasmo tiktok....my life is a lie no way u pronounce a thaye like that

[zinc coyote]

[serene creek]

Which tiktok?

[glacial stag]

the one about thaye on the offical phasmo tiktok

[cobalt matrix]

how is it pronounced?

they?

[wise oyster]

why doesn't that get posted to #social-media-feed ?

[glacial stag]

idk

[glacial stag]

thai-yay

[cobalt matrix]

what

[glacial stag]

i assume it the way it is said from the language it originates from

[wise oyster]

It's Burmese

[cobalt matrix]

ok whys this kind of fun to say though

[wise oyster]

Thayé

[glacial stag]

idk anymore

[west kindle]

I pronounce thaye as they

with an e at the end

[glacial stag]

im questioning goryo, obake and onryo now

[cobalt matrix]

i feel like i pronounce they more like "vey"

[serene creek]

tiktok is not loading on my browser lol I don't wwant to install it on my phone. oh well

[cobalt matrix]

but i pronounce thaye as "faye"

[cobalt matrix]

idk if its an accent thing or if i just never pronounced things properly lmao

[wise oyster]

More westerners are at least vaguely familiar with how Japanese words are pronounced than other southeast Asian languages

[zinc coyote]

Its pronounced thaye

[serene creek]

I am not pronouncing it Tai yé

[glacial stag]

bro

google translate cant even give me the way to pronounce it from Burmese

[serene creek]

My concept of english phonics won't allow for it. :p

[glacial stag]

TwT

[wise oyster]

That's fine. There are tons of English loanwords we don't pronounce the same as they are in their original language

[glacial stag]

though from tamil is similar to thai-yay/ye

[prisma laurel]

Where's de frog?

[wise oyster]

Heck Japanese uses tons of English words nowadays and they certainly don't pronounce them like they are in English

[cobalt matrix]

[glacial stag]

nelson is now retired, living his life gaming at maple lodge

i swear if goryo is like gyro

im question everything

[wise oyster]

It sounds pretty much the same, just with a Japanese accent

Same with Obake and Yokai

Yurei sounds like yoo-day

[serene creek]

OK, so the bone this run is in some obscure place I Can't see. joy

[junior wing]

When the breaker is off, is the house always considered cold for Hantu?

[lost dome]

for his breath yes but has to actually be cold for speed

[junior wing]

In the game I just played, the ghost was Hantu and when the breaker was off, it was at the same speed in every room.

[lost dome]

usually the ghost room is only one colder/faster

as long as they are the same temp it will be same speed everywhere

[rapid hemlock]

anyone got tips for apoc 3?

[vivid crater]

depends on the weather

[junior wing]

Thx

[junior wing]

Weather was clean

[wise oyster]

If the breaker had been on already, it will take some time for the rooms to cool down. They'll approach the ambient temp (weather temp), and ofc where the ghost is, temps will approach 1C (or below with a freezing ghost), but none of that happens instantly.

[serene creek]

Bleh, I thought this ghost was an obake until I tried a hunt, and it did not shapeshift. Then I thought it was a banshee. Turns out it was an Obake after all.

Trollbake.

[vivid crater]

it did at least 3 times (if the hunt duration set to 30 seconds)

[green carbon]

How do you tell the difference between that one event and a hunt?

[vivid crater]

ghost model blinks on hunts/always in "full form"

[wise oyster]

assuming you mean the "fake hunt event," 2 big things: The ghost will not blink during an event, and it will appears immediately with no grace period

also if you've already had a hunt, all subsequent hunts will use the same sound

[green carbon]

Thank you

[last drift]

Events, lights turns off immediately

Hunt, lights stay on til hunt ends.

[serene creek]

I looked at for a good amount of time during the hunt, and didn't change form once from what I could see.

[vivid crater]

my guess is that it shapeshifted into itself and you missed two other ones

[green carbon]

Around what time will the easter event come out?

[lost dome]

there will be Partner videos the 17th

[green carbon]

Alr

[wise oyster]

so it's gotta be the 18th, b/c Easter is the 20th

Do I report people holding me hostage in game?

Or somewhere else?

[wise oyster]

Report in-game, DM any add'l evidence (usually video) to @violet nova

[hoary wind]

depends whats the ransom they're asking for

[south violet]

Be really annoying until they leave & play loud music

[unreal onyx]

go to another lobby, play alone so people can't stop you from enjoying the game

get better friends

[weak palm]

Ok I have an over 15 minute long clip

They're still in here holding me hostage

[odd vale]

You can cut it down to what’s relevant. Haha.

[unreal onyx]

do you need someone to play with?

[sudden sky]

Can you not leave the game?

[wise oyster]

def do the in-game report, too. You're gonna have to just leave that group though. They're not gonna do anything about it immediately

[odd vale]

Many people don’t want to leave the game, people want to leave through the truck and get the credit.

[weak palm]

Sure can and then just give them what they want

[odd vale]

After reporting all they can do is leave the game.

[unreal onyx]

I hear where you are coming from but is it worth the energy you are spending?

[weak palm]

If they get banned in the end it is

[sudden sky]

I mean yea but if they’re trolling and blocking the exit then getting pissed is also giving them exactly what they want

[odd vale]

I wouldn’t get pissed. My time is worth more than hoping they’ll stop.

[modern mauve]

You're not going to be able to win, they're not going to get banned or kicked today

[odd vale]

Just report and leave.

[unreal onyx]

You have the evidence, you have the proof, the only real option you have is to leave and go for another investigation.

[odd vale]

Best steps. Do the report and then leave the game.

You can even leave the game now since you have evidence.

[sudden sky]

Unless you’re going to something big like apoc I’d just say it’s not worth the trouble

[weak palm]

That's alright, as long as it happens. They're prestige XX

[unreal onyx]

Those kinds of people only really respond to no-contact and to not engage. They are sad people who have no authority or power over their lives. Sad that they are doing this in a video game.

[unreal onyx]

so they could be cheating, problem is there are a lot of those people.

[weak palm]

They appear to be a playstation player based on their icon which makes that less likely

[odd vale]

Report information in Modmail gets compiled and forwarded to KG for review.

[sudden sky]

I mean this is true, I just think letting them continue to do what they’re doing is worse than cutting your losses

[weak palm]

I'm just using my pc in the mean time so they're not really doing anything

[unreal onyx]

agreed that the right option is to report, but the best thing is to record the interaction, and if they are not respecting the game then report and let someone with more power deal with them. They will do it enough times, or they will make another mistake and it will get sorted. I think this community is honest and enjoys the game enough to eventually sort them out

[echo cliff]

Is thaye pronounced faye or tie aye

[odd vale]

I guess it is technically the second.

[sudden sky]

Pronounced like “they”

[echo cliff]

So phasmophobia official tiktok is wrong then

[unreal onyx]

Does anyone know how it works when the onryo or yokai are smudged if their abilities are suspended or if it is a point in time check, I would look at the source code but thats not available.

[odd vale]

No. It isn’t.

https://youtu.be/bKzNbr4CQE8?si=OF3wTCvXD0nzB4Da

One example

[sudden sky]

I mean to each their own, I always say it like “they”

[unreal onyx]

what language is it though?

[odd vale]

It is a Burmese ghost from Myanmar folklore

[unreal onyx]

so it is "that" + "ye", without the second t sound

[echo cliff]

That's def very strange

[unreal onyx]

thai ye

[odd vale]

For the majority we can’t see it pronounced different because it’s how we would pronounce it.

[unreal onyx]

The devs could put the phonetics in the book so communicate the official pronunciation. should be easy enough to do.

[odd vale]

Wait until you know how Deogen is really pronounced

[unreal onyx]

woah now, I dont want a fight, I apologize, you know, forget we even spoke...........

[slow spade]

How bad can it be😭

[hoary wind]

Deo gone or some shit

[cold beacon]

Insym is literally Dutch and doesn't bother.

[hoary wind]

idk i just say it in my american way so we got the "Th-aye" and "deo-gen"

[unreal onyx]

I said it as "degan" for the longest time

[odd vale]

It’s a Dutch word and and the G in Dutch “de ogen” is not like the g gen like generation

https://youtu.be/7982L-EWnaA?si=2gzI34fj6aJF3kXC

Just the G part is all you need to see for it

[hoary wind]

Got it so instead of deo gen its deo- guttural throat gurgling-en

[odd vale]

Kinda yeah

It means something like “of eyes” - clueing into why it can always see the player.

[unreal onyx]

Im shocked how accurate that is

[last drift]

Dey-ochen

[odd vale]

Or they eyes

[slow spade]

I'm just sticking to deo

[last drift]

Hi mezzo wezzo

[odd vale]

I gotta drive now. Behave.

[unreal onyx]

never /s...... Enjoy

[last drift]

Nuuuuu ok fine I'll be good

[unreal onyx]

does anyone know the answer, does any ghost suspend their abilities until after the smudge, like candles or talking? like if I am three candles in and it is smudged does it not hunt or is it like a cursed hunt where it ignores it, how does that work?

[last drift]

Yes.

Smudges prevent hunts til timer ends.

If vandelay was here he'd have more useful info about why

[unreal onyx]

so will not refuse to blow out past the three? or does the fourth stack? or cancel the hunt since it didn't hunt?

[vivid crater]

elaborate?

[last drift]

I think the ability is just delayed, don't quote me.

[last drift]

Yousmudge onryo, and it blows three candles while under smudge.

[unreal onyx]

So smudge then onryo test.

[last drift]

What happens?

[vivid crater]

ah missed this

[last drift]

I think it's delayed.

[vivid crater]

no, it will be canceled

[last drift]

Canceled entirely.

[vivid crater]

if third blowout was during smudge timer

[last drift]

So to answer the question: we believe it's entirely canceled.

[unreal onyx]

so I got that part, what about the number? Q1) so 1,2,3(hunt), 4(canceled hunt), 5,6,7(hunt), smudge end (starts hunt), (which is cruci or another candle), OR Q2) is it 1,2,3(hunt stacked),1,2,3(second hunt stacked),1,2,3(third hunt stacked), and Q3) what is another problem is MIMIC, 1,2,3(hunt stacked), switched to shade (above 35%), no hunt?

[odd vale]

Already home hahaha

[vivid crater]

1, 2, 3 - hunt, 4 (canceled), 5, 6 - hunt

[unreal onyx]

or are you saying 1,2,3, (checks for ability to hunt, effectly hitting the shield of the smudge), 1,2,3, smudge end, 1,2,3 (hunt)?

I had it hunt between what I thought was 5 and 6 after a smudge, so either I was counting right and you are wrong or I was counting wrong, which is possible. it was on tanglewood in the utility closet

[pine relic]

Is there a ghost event where the lights go red and flicker ?

[vivid crater]

prolly because third blowout was near the end of smudge timer, and usually there is up to 6 seconds delay in the idle state for ability hunt

and canceled hunt counts as 1 for the new 'cycle'

[last drift]

Red light event

[mint swan]

finally prestiged for the first time

[unreal onyx]

so does it being smudge delay the hunt until the end and if it blows another candle, then it will cancel the existing hunt then it starts at 1 again, 4th blow out, OR does the smudge stop the hunt at the third blow out, regardless if there is another candle, I understand there is a delay, but lets say 60 second into a smudge, so 30 seconds left

[modern mauve]

Good job, now to do it all again and get those cards

[mint swan]

[modern mauve]

Hullo Aly ❤️

[last drift]

ALYZZI<3

[vivid crater]

smudge timer stops the hunt at the third blow out regardless if there is another candle, the counter always resets to 0 after hitting third

[mint swan]

fair enough

t3 headgear is the most useless piece of equipment on t3

[pine relic]

It scared the crap out of me I didn’t know that was a thing

[last drift]

Its my fav event

[mint swan]

me too

[modern mauve]

T3 Headgear isn't useless, it just has a big drawback during hunts. Which is unfortunate

[last drift]

King CJL will drop the bass and we'll have a trchno rave

[mint swan]

it's really buggy

[pine relic]

I not seen it till now so it scared meXD

[mint swan]

even when u take it off it randomly activates

[vivid crater]

it was one of the best before 0.10 sadly

[unreal onyx]

so effectively, smudge, crucifix and candle stops hunts from an onryo, but it can carry 2 charges out of the smudge with no one dead, but if it hits the third it does nothing. Is that correct?

[modern mauve]

That will happen if someone else picks it up at the same time

[mint swan]

it happened when that didnt happen for me

[vivid crater]

yes

[mint swan]

i hadnt dropped it at all and it was randomly activating, i put it back and nobody else took it for the rest of the level and it was still randomly activating

t2 headgear is just a flashlight that doesnt take up an inv slot

[modern mauve]

It's a multiplayer bug unfortunately

[mint swan]

rip

[unreal onyx]

I think I understand now, so the mimic doens't matter since the smudge will kill the hunt, the fourth was actually a new 1 on my game, which now makes sense why it hunted after the blow out

[modern mauve]

T2 headgear is goated

[unreal onyx]

thanks for the clarification

[mint swan]

real

[last drift]

Facts

[mint swan]

heres the real question, t2 smudge or t3 smudge

[last drift]

T2

I prefer t1 though

[mint swan]

imo t3 is better for ghost photos

[last drift]

Cause it doesn't muck up their speed

[modern mauve]

I like Insym, not because he's the best player ever and is the number 1 source of info, he at least has his finger on the pulse and is willing to give constructive criticism without being an asshole about it

So I was wondering, should I exclude Large maps from my Ascension?

[unreal onyx]

pro con?

[modern mauve]

Pro, I don't have to look 20+ minutes for the bone, con, it would almost feel like cheating myself

[unreal onyx]

pro breaks up the boring and more dynamic, con harder and more chances to die, and bone

exclusively point hope is the only option

[wise oyster]

It's whatever you wanna do, really. All of these are for your own challenge and enjoyment. Dave's got his on hold until Chronicle anyway.

[modern mauve]

I'm not actually that concerned about dying, I go most of my games with dying (in solo), Larger maps are generally tedious for a challenge like this

[wise oyster]

especially once you get to level 50 and no longer have 100% speed

[modern mauve]

mmhmm

I'm going to remove Brownstone and SM from my list, and remove Prison when I get to 50 I think

[wise oyster]

tbh I'd be impressed if someone only did Tanglewood the whole way

[unreal onyx]

with SM, maple/woodwind, and PH, going to tanglewood is a paradise

[modern mauve]

I might actually remove Point Hope when I start 0 evidence

I may even make a small modification to the Ascension

oh i see now i was looking into the mirror for awhile trying to figure out what it was showing me i see why i died now

[unreal onyx]

I give any new players to my group a talking to about cursed objects after getting killed by them by every noobie, its fun seeing the life drain from their virtual eyes

something to the effect of "If you touch this and I dont die, i will unalive you"

[true pilot]

so sad to becuase i had already found the ghost room to with the emf reader i did not even need the mirror

[wise oyster]

The mirror is my favorite cursed object, but its effectiveness is based on how well you already know the map, so it can do more harm than good for new players (like in your case).

[unreal onyx]

if you dont know what you are doing, or aren't told, then dont TOUCH it 😄

Aside from Hantus, are there any ghosts that are more likely to turn the breaker off?

[last meadow]

No

[astral geyser]

Mares

[warm sandal]

Hey all quick question; does "infinite UV fingerprints" leave infinite footprints also?

[unreal onyx]

its a call back to the original version where finger prints dont disappear.

so, it is unlikely to affect footprints, but we can test it

[warm sandal]

Okay, I'll just have to find out, thanks for the answer!

[vivid crater]

no

this setting has nothing to do with the footprints

[warm sandal]

Too bad, oh well

[vivid crater]

it only affects fingerprints

[unreal onyx]

is there a correlation between footprints not showing up for UV ghosts and obake sharing its tricks with other ghosts?

it could be they were wearing shoes when they died

[serene creek]

Well, that's just reason #1,309,495 to hate the Monkey paw: Wishing to see the ghost doesn't actually show the ghost, just instantly starts the hunt.

[vestal ferry]

It starts a ghost event. And starts a hunt after.

5 seconds is all you got. Make it count

[serene creek]

That is what is supposedc to happen, but didn't.

[unreal onyx]

to rephrase my question, anything that might contribute to UV ghosts not leaving footprints?

[solid wigeon]

What’s the command for monkey paw knowledge, It only works when i ask for “saucy pics”

[vestal ferry]

UV chance setting yes. And its per step. Obake also is effected by this.

[compact pine]

So there's a huge gap between each step on obake?

[unreal onyx]

so 100% chance and 60 second timer, but no footprints and UV on the door

half of the time when I get footprints its only if the UV is point at them already, they seem to stop illumunating after they have been made and they only last like 15 seconds at best

[vestal ferry]

10 seconds is all foot prints last for

[unreal onyx]

yeah, I am right on top of them with UV on the salt and I check and about half the time a UV ghost leaves UV footprints, AT BEST

I have completely ignored salt for UV evidence

[vestal ferry]

It must also continue walking.

[clever knoll]

on some maps, things like carpet props can block uv footprints occasionally as well - the prints exist, but are below the carpet as it isn't solid

[vestal ferry]

Sometimes rugs mess up foot prints.

[unreal onyx]

so phasmo is being phasmo and ignore salt for UV unless there is no other choice and avoid objects on the map that already affect salt pictures

[radiant path]

how do u start a match i just started playing

[unreal onyx]

you need to have unlocked igniter, and you just switch to it and right click

[vestal ferry]

Hit singleplayer or multiplayer.
You need to be in a lobby.

[radiant path]

im in some house with a van and boards

[unreal onyx]

You are in the lobby, press space, go to either single or multi player, select a map on the left, ready up and start

[radiant path]

i eeded to accept some agreeement

what is different between voice and text

language

[vestal ferry]

Voice you talk. Text you select text.
I suggest doing the Training

[vivid crater]

All UV ghosts are guaranteed (except Obake, and ofc this evidence is not hidden) to leave footprints after stepping in salt

[unreal onyx]

I will point out that this does not match my experience but I am happy to hear your ideas about why I have not gotten UV footprints on at least half of the ghosts with UV

not obake

[vivid crater]

What difficulty?

[radiant path]

so if i select english im only gona get matched with english speakers?

[unreal onyx]

custom, around 3-5x, 100% chance, with 60 seconds on fingerprints

[vivid crater]

I have told you before that these settings have nothing to do with footprints. 2 or 3 evidence?

[vestal ferry]

The ones that have english selected with their lobby yes. But thats a seperate setting when in multiplayer screen

[radiant path]

so if i select chinese the people i get matched with will talk chinese and same for every other language

[unreal onyx]

understood, have a good day

[vestal ferry]

At least thats the language they chose for their lobby.

[radiant path]

so voice is the language they wanna talk in mulitplayer

[blissful gust]

when the last objective is get 25 sanity so u afk in the dark 💔

[vestal ferry]

Voice in normal settings is for voice recognition. To talk to ghost

I suggest doing the Training.

[radiant path]

so i need a microphone to play the game

[vestal ferry]

Thats what Text option is for

[radiant path]

i cant pick up the sanity medication in training🥀

nvm

is there a ui to see ur inventory slots

[molten spear]

Nope

You can just switch through to see what items you have

[serene creek]

The game took pity of me last round because my face got eaten by The Twins before i, and gave me an easy Obake that left it's special handprint. ❤️ lol

[molten spear]

😂😂😂

[radiant path]

is there a stamina ui

[molten spear]

Nope

You can only run for what feels like 3 seconds

[vivid crater]

No, but it takes X + 2 seconds to recover X seconds of sprinting iirc

[unreal onyx]

to explain my response, telling me you told me already is mildly condescending and patronizing, I understand you are trying to help me with my issue, you are not paid etc, however, I understand enough about the mechanics to know there is not a good reason for it to be doing this. Asking if I am playing 2 or 3 evidence after that comment is not clear whether you think I am incompetent or a novice, I already know that I could be doing something wrong but after hundreds of games, and seeing patterns I feel like I am asking a legitimate question, so I dont know what is going on or if it was something you took based on our last interaction, but I do not believe that initial comment was appropriate.

[radiant path]

what brightness is recommended

[blissful gust]

is ts bugged ive been in the dark for over 10 minutes on insanity and im still not at 25 sanity

[vestal ferry]

Room needs the lights off. Doesnt matter if you are personally in dark if the room lights are on.

[blissful gust]

do you mean the ghost room light needs to be off?

[radiant path]

are there skins for equipment😁

[blissful gust]

cuz the room i’m hiding in the ghost broke the lights so

[blissful gust]

no

[radiant path]

im in the temperature room and it doesnt go to freezing and the door isnt open

[vestal ferry]

Whatwver room your in.

[vestal ferry]

You need to find the little mini room that is getting cold and wait. One of them will have freezing.

[radiant path]

why do i need to wait

[unreal onyx]

takes time for the room to get colder

[radiant path]

i matched the evidence and it doesnt show a ghost type

[unreal onyx]

what do you have? spirit box, orbs, uv or freezing?

[blissful gust]

yeah the lights have been off the whole time sucks cuz it’s my last objective on apocalypse bronze

[radiant path]

UV DOTS and freezing

[unreal onyx]

what tier of equipment?

[vestal ferry]

Oh. Yeah. Large maps sanity drain is slow

[radiant path]

im in the tutorial

[vestal ferry]

Youre in training. Its teaching you what the evidences are

It wont open next door until you get freezing. There is no ghost type in training

[radiant path]

i played roblox knock off i know the evidence 💔

[blissful gust]

i should have rerolled my objectives but now i feel i’m too deep 😭 i know the ghost and i have a photo of it and 2/3 objectives done

[unreal onyx]

what is the last objective?

[vestal ferry]

Well. Trainimg teaches you the evidence in phasmo.

[radiant path]

the ghost isnt answering or am i doing something wrong

[blissful gust]

get 25 sanity

[vestal ferry]

Read the white board. It teaches you everything you must do

[blissful gust]

and its not as easy going afk cuz its a phantom so it could go to me and start a hunt

[radiant path]

what button is to ask question

the questions pop up but nothing happening

[vestal ferry]

Are you usinf voice or text?

[radiant path]

text

[vestal ferry]

You need to select them. Click or on controller use button thats next to it.

[radiant path]

lights were on 😭

[vestal ferry]

Most people forget to turn off the lights in training

[radiant path]

bro the ghost changed room hacking

[blissful gust]

finally got the objective done

woohoo bronze apocalypse trophy!!

[radiant path]

how do you pick a question

[unreal onyx]

so most of the time it is 2 evidence so I mark it down as not giving UV because it steps in 1 or 2 3-piles, then it gives UV on a door or window, now a three pile might cause an issue with UV footprints, which is something I can try, but if you have any other ideas I am happy to hear them, and if you are done talking to me, then I understand.

[unreal onyx]

are you on text mode?

[radiant path]

yes

[unreal onyx]

youll have three options when you right click with the spirit box

[radiant path]

i know how do i pick one

[unreal onyx]

click on it

[radiant path]

nothing happens

[unreal onyx]

youll know that it hears you with red, youll know it was an answer with white

[abstract lotus]

Specter be rocking 🌚

[radiant path]

ik

[radiant path]

im hovering over the question and when i right click it turns off

[abstract lotus]

This is not how i expected my moon emoji to look like

[unreal onyx]

left click the options in the middle

[vestal ferry]

Its left click.

[radiant path]

😭

[neat swift]

my friend says that a thaye can bypass setup time/safe timer on amateur is he wrong

[abstract lotus]

He can bypass if you use a cursed object

[radiant path]

oh no im on the attack part

[abstract lotus]

Otherwise it cannot

[vestal ferry]

No ghost can.

[wise oyster]

it's not even bypassing then. Setup Time is just canceled

[radiant path]

i dont have crucifix

[unreal onyx]

you can't die in training

[wise oyster]

cruci does nothing after hunts start anyway

[radiant path]

why

[neat swift]

so he used a cursed object

[radiant path]

i thought it killed ghost

[neat swift]

hes telling me he didnt

[wise oyster]

b/c it prevents hunts from starting, not stops them once they already started

[unreal onyx]

are you sure that it hunted and it isn't event?

[neat swift]

i died

[radiant path]

u cant stop a hunt when its start?

[wise oyster]

right

[vestal ferry]

Nope you cannot.

[radiant path]

im cooked

[modern mauve]

You can stop a hunt....

[wise oyster]

except using Monkey Paw wish to leave and walking out

[modern mauve]

...by dying

[radiant path]

so i cant kill ghost

[unreal onyx]

and you can avoid dying with smudges and hiding from the ghost

[vestal ferry]

No

[unreal onyx]

unless someone eats all the smudges

[wise oyster]

no, you cannot fight back against the ghost at all. You can use incense to blind it. that's it

[radiant path]

is there text chat

[wise oyster]

or T3 salt to slow it

[vestal ferry]

Sorry i eated all the ghost eliminating cheese and drank all the holy water.

[vestal ferry]

There is not

[radiant path]

how am i supposed to play multiplayer

[unreal onyx]

by talking.

[radiant path]

i dont have a mic

[neat swift]

my friend is saying it must be a glitch bc he didnt use a cursed object

[unreal onyx]

then probably by yourself, unfortunately

[wise oyster]

you're gonna wanna get a mic

[radiant path]

im gonna sign language my teammates and fist fight the revevenant launching at me

[unreal onyx]

I dont believe him but if you are dead you can check if any of the cursed objects are out of place.

[neat swift]

he was in a locker and the voodoo doll on the floor outside of it

[vestal ferry]

Even if he turned one on well rip setup timer

[modern mauve]

Guilty as charged

[unreal onyx]

thats a smoking gun if I ever heard it

[exotic pelican]

hello everyone!
whats the weekly challenge for this week?

[vestal ferry]

Check pins

[unreal onyx]

easy

[serene creek]

Why do I always get Revenants that act like Yokais? I keep getting deaf Revs. lol

[unreal onyx]

you are hiding too well, also maybe mimic? 😄

[modern mauve]

Think I have a shade on this game

[wise oyster]

If you got a Rev, you don't have to check for anything else

[radiant path]

how do i start 💔

i swear i cant read what its saying right infront of me

[vestal ferry]

You need to be in a lobby. Select single player or multiplayer

[unreal onyx]

they needs a new pair of pants and a new body.

[vestal ferry]

Also go into graphics settings and turn off the amd fidelity settings

[serene creek]

Not mimic lol, it was a Rev. I like hearing the charge, but it wouldn't speed up until it saw me no matter how many ti mes I yelled at the ghost (needed the repel obj).

[radiant path]

is 250 brightness good

[vestal ferry]

If that works for you

[unreal onyx]

is your mic hardware muted? it was probably too far away to hear you or detect you

[radiant path]

is amd the fidelity fx super resoluton

[vestal ferry]

Yes. Turn it off. Makes things blurry

[radiant path]

what is best qeuipment to use first

[serene creek]

It was on Tangle, I was in the Garage, and it was roaming from Foyer to Living room then to Kitchen (when it saw wme since I was in front of door from utility).

[modern mauve]

Thermo, EMF, torch imo

[vestal ferry]

Emf and thermo.

[radiant path]

i dont need flashligt

[vestal ferry]

Things to find ghost. Your ears are best still

[unreal onyx]

depends on map TBH lol

[radiant path]

i cant even open the door

[unreal onyx]

grab the key

also emf might be better at lower levels until you get tier 2 thermo

[modern mauve]

Well, I'm strictly talking about first games, larger maps and equipment won't be unlocked. You're not wrong though, paramic is great for larger maps

[radiant path]

is there chase music

[vestal ferry]

You didnt pick up the key in truck then

And no. There isnt music

[unreal onyx]

I only use para because then I can hear myself talk. I love that.

[radiant path]

how am i supposed to kno wwhen ghost is hunting

[unreal onyx]

espeically not with a myling lol

[slim ibex]

door lock sound, cant turn on lgiht switches, light flickering

[vestal ferry]

By listening

[slim ibex]

just listen for the ghost too

[unreal onyx]

youll have to figure out if there is even a ghost or not /s

if you cant find the ghost, just guess goryo or shade and 50/50 youll get it right lol

[modern mauve]

I do recommend keeping the lights turned on around you, except for the ghost room - sanity management is very important

[radiant path]

this is much harder than roblox knock offs 💔

[modern mauve]

I'm finally in good Spirit Box territory, goodbye T1, hello T2

[unreal onyx]

are you sure you dont want to talk to yourself with a blinking light?

never sure if it gives evidence or just t1 hell?

[modern mauve]

T1 does work, but you gotta be within 3m of the ghost, and even then the response chance is lower than the others

[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.

[unreal onyx]

There is reason I started to play 2 evidence.

[modern mauve]

For my money, 2ev is the most balanced way to play Phas, as much as I love 0ev and beyond, I like coming back to evidence games

[vivid crater]

My bad if it came off as a bit offensive, just clarifying

[vivid crater]

can you send a clip of that happening?

[bitter ingot]

Hello!

[unreal onyx]

3ev is a nice relaxed pace of a puzzle game, 2ev is a balance between evidence and hunting, 1ev is whether I am dying to a thaye(tie aye), moroi or a wraith, and 0ev is just constantly dying to wraith.

[eternal yew]

hey guys is this game worth it?Im bouta buy it and im not sure if its good,especially cuz none of my friends have it cuz its 20 bucks
