phasmo-chat

[gilded quartz]

Or whatever settings you have

Hmm. Yeah, just check file integrety. If that's not an issue then it's likely just random

[undone kayak]

it looks sth like this : #screenshots

[toxic dune]

there wouldnt be anything under the power tab that would cause a hang after a few minutes afk

[gilded quartz]

Are you on steam?...

[undone kayak]

I bought it on steam if thats what you mean

[gilded quartz]

Is that where you downloaded it from tho

Ima assume so if you bought it on there

Close the game, go into properties, under installed files, check file integrity (you may not have to close the game but you may as well if it crashed)

[toxic dune]

i would suggest that, if thats fine reinstall phasmo completely

if that doesnt work, uninstall windows

😅

[gilded quartz]

If it's a constant issue then yeah. But odds are reinstalling the game will work

But if you reinstall windows and that fails too, just yeet the hard drive out

[undone kayak]

yep

[undone kayak]

lmao

[toxic dune]

uninstall windows, install linux

[undone kayak]

idk I afked just know and it didnt crash

[gilded quartz]

Linux is good but not as universally accepted for installations

A dual boot is a good workaround to that though

Or if your PC is strong enough, a VM

[undone kayak]

I do have ubuntu on my laptop but most games I play dont have linux compat unfortunately

[gilded quartz]

^

[toxic dune]

i run linux as my main OS and have no issues

[gilded quartz]

Depends on your games

[undone kayak]

for example, battleeye does have linux support, natively, r* games refuses to turn it on for gta v

[gilded quartz]

Yeah... AAA companies are less likely to do linux support

Because they can probably get paid by windows to only do it on their platform. More money, less cost

[toxic dune]

what i have run so far runs great and thats includding triple A titles

[undone kayak]

ofc, and dont get me wrong, honestly I like my ubuntu setup more, it feels much less bloated and I can do a lot of cool shit, windows is my necessary evil

[subtle horizon]

Guess im playing more phas tonight 🙃

[gilded quartz]

Depends on what windows would offer tho

Linux is fantastic for simple stuff. But windows is, unfortunately, more likely to be compatible with everything

[undone kayak]

it's not that it runs horribly, it's just that the game will insta kick you out if youre on linux

[gilded quartz]

You might be able to get a trimmed version of windows though, people make mods of the OS that remove the bloatware and crap

[undone kayak]

because they refuse fr some reason to enable linux compat

[gilded quartz]

Install at your own risk of course

[toxic dune]

never once been kicked off a game for being on linux

[gilded quartz]

That does sound very rockstar games like tho

[undone kayak]

I dont have any issues tbh with slowness etc, my rig is really good so it just so happens to have 0 issues

[undone kayak]

they fell so badly

[gilded quartz]

Bloatware only causes slowness if you're low on storage

Which, in the modern day? If you can afford everything else you can afford to upgrade storage if you need to

[undone kayak]

ye the new anticheat (that doesn't even detect cheaters) with disabled compat will not allow you ig cuz kernel level anticheat

[gilded quartz]

2tb is around 100 bucks ffs, super easy to upgrade

[undone kayak]

fr, still got a terra left on my games drive for example

[gilded quartz]

mhm. It's less the games and more the anticheats that don't support linux altogether

[undone kayak]

depends ofc on the location, Greece has low wages, compared to the west but has increased prices in electronics

[gilded quartz]

Singleplayer games are a lot more likely to run on it, multiplayer ones might not have anticheat support.

If you install their anticheat service successfully it might work though

Separately

[toxic dune]

like with phasmo, and fh5 no issues playing anything in my library online

[undone kayak]

if my main games were not tied to windows, I would at least dual boot, I still have software that must be used in a windows environment for uni assignments

ironically, a cs uni

very few classes tho, thankfully, most others are linux-oriented

[toxic dune]

if you get it set up well its good, theres somethings that i cant have on windows that i need for my IT stuff

i guess we're both victums of a double edge sword haha

[undone kayak]

yep, necessayr evil lol

[toxic dune]

i like how i got this laid out

[prime elk]

xlegendx3465

Nice and clean with an animated background

Triggered by xlegendx3465 • Click username to jump to message · Apr 25, 2025, 9:03 AM

[undone kayak]

nice af

wallpaper hits hard

[toxic dune]

thanks, spents like 3 days getting everything all setup

should see the animation on the background. the petals fall, the brake lights light up and fade out and the trees sway

[undone kayak]

damn I can imagine turning the monitor on after a long day, feels amazing af

[gilded quartz]

That kind of animation sounds cool for a wallpaper-

Except remove the car and make it more nature based. Maybe a waterfall in the clouds on a mountain, with some sakura trees around

Shit would be hella nice to come back to after a long day of work

Something peaceful in this chaos of a world

[sudden igloo]

Yo I'm so dang new to phasmo 😭 I also hate horror games 😅

[gilded quartz]

Then you're in for a nightmare

Phasmo is the only horror game to keep my on my toes

[sudden igloo]

I know 😭 I played it a little with my mate a couple days ago

I just want to have someone join me till I get used to it

[runic star]

im 1 optional objective away from apocalypse 3

[sudden igloo]

No idea what that is but good job

[runic star]

15x multiplier on sunny meadows

[sudden igloo]

😭😭 I'm new so I got no idea

[runic star]

so basically the player walking speed is 50% less and the ghost walking speed is 150%

and you have 0 sprint, no flashlight, no grace period (instant hunt), and just no sanity

[sudden igloo]

That sounds scary 😨

[runic star]

yeah it is

[sudden igloo]

What do you play on, like server wise bc I'm as

[merry sage]

theres like hanging stick things everywhere on tanglewood is this a new event or sm

[runic star]

eu

[runic star]

its the easter event yeah

[sudden igloo]

😭 I needs people lol

[toxic dune]

that would be a cool idea too, i might have to see if i can find something like that

my irl was like that, hates horror games but he ended up buying phasmo. also got him to play an hour of mortuary assistant

[fresh tide]

is it 0 evi also

[toxic dune]

15x is like 0 everything

[fresh tide]

ig its 0 evi

[spark tusk]

Hai

[fresh tide]

i got a deo in ap3

[gilded quartz]

Anyways. Ima go find a group to play a couple rounds with after I light some mo green

If any of yall wanna join hmu in the na lfg, otherwise peace out

[spark tusk]

Good luck with your rounds, hope ya have fun

[runic star]

same, i just did it

[toxic dune]

good luck, id join but imma have to start getting ready shortly, but have this burger 🍔 😛

[vestal ferry]

actually reinstalling the game doesn't generally fix things. it's best to send people to #common-tech-fixes and #1082421799578521620

[round cairn]

Anybody knows if having the difficulty higher increases the amount of the event points you get from the contract?

[mossy mason]

it does
you get 1 point for every 1x multiplier, rounded down

[round cairn]

ooh ok

it all makes sense now

[raven obsidian]

Does anyone know how I get the new name tag?

[opal creek]

Within the Challenge Mode, should it have the writing book because in mine it doesn't

[gilded quartz]

Reinstalling CAN fix things, depending on what it is. Common issues have other fixes though

[nocturne heron]

Quick question, is the flashlight useful at all? If so for what exactly

[gritty dove]

It's purpose is light. That's what it's for

[celest bluff]

I just said hi to this level 7 and they said hey whats up then instantly kicked me 😭

[fresh tide]

and myling test

[fresh tide]

maybe u are high lvl

[nocturne heron]

How can i do that

[topaz star]

u can also test a myling without a flashlight if u have good hearing

[fresh tide]

hide in a hiding spot

[ember crystal]

isnt it very quite?

[fresh tide]

drop ur flashlight

[fresh tide]

yea but if u hear an interaction but no footstep usually its a myling

[ember crystal]

ohh

[dapper oak]

what is some good stuff to bring into a house if theres just two of us

[fresh tide]

smudge

[dapper oak]

i suck at ghost gam

[topaz star]

if ur playing with evidence grab the evidence stuff first

[fresh tide]

how do i identify an obake easter event and 0 evi or i cant

[dapper oak]

ah yes this make sense thx

[topaz star]

u cant

it has a missing foot step during a hunt but i never heard it before

[fresh tide]

ok ty

is the missing foot step random or guaranteed every hunt

[topaz star]

random

[gilded quartz]

I love how the FIRST tarot card I ever draw in 71 hours of gameplay ends up being death

My luck in a nutshell

[topaz star]

imagine a hangman

[desert chasm]

I struggle to justify taking it over the t2 headgear but light is nice. Especially if your brightness isn't on max

[eternal yew]

I got my first voodo doll and it decided to pin the heart.

First try,the heart

[storm sage]

is there a reward for getting top 10 on community event lb?

[topaz star]

no

i learned that the hard way from the xmas event

[storm sage]

o7

[cobalt onyx]

It’s just bragging rights

[formal shore]

Can identify when it hunts can't you?

[topaz star]

not really

[cobalt onyx]

Events turn Obake into Obroke

[formal shore]

It normally shapeshifts for a second but I've not had one in events tbh

[cobalt onyx]

It’s broken in events, cannot shapeshift

[formal shore]

Oh well that's shit lmao

[cobalt onyx]

That’s why I call it Obroke

[obsidian venture]

Anyone can help me? my phasmophobia is stuck on intializing

[formal shore]

I don't really play no evi tbh, my brain can't comprehend how people can go in and identify it just by speeds and things lol

[fresh tide]

thats what i pulled

[cobalt onyx]

Yeah the really good players are crazy. My comfort zone is 2 evidence but I need to start trying 1 so I can do apoc bronze

[fresh tide]

maybe ur steam was closed

[grizzled maple]

Are the DOTS bugged ??

[formal shore]

Yeah 2 evi is mine too, I've only been playing a week

[fresh tide]

y

[obsidian venture]

Nope its on

[topaz star]

Takes time to get used to it like any other game the more u play the better u get

[cobalt onyx]

Oh nice, I’ve been playin for about a year and a half

[fresh tide]

lost save file

i guess

[obsidian venture]

Nope

[grizzled maple]

explains alot -.-

[fresh tide]

why do u think its bugged

[fresh tide]

ask support

[grizzled maple]

cuz we already did 3 rounds with dots ghosts and everytime we didnt got the dots but it were those ghosts

[fresh tide]

sometimes it takes 10-15 mins for the dots to appear

is it goryo

[grizzled maple]

no xD

[desert chasm]

Nightmare?

[fresh tide]

how long u been waiting forthe dots

[tender gale]

is 1.0 freezing

[fresh tide]

yea maybe or 0 evi

[fresh tide]

under 1

[desert chasm]

Anything below it is but not 1.0

[tender gale]

stupid ghost

[fresh tide]

what can sound sensor do

[cobalt onyx]

Senses sounds

[azure sedge]

idk if the devs know but the coffee table glitch that was on ridgeview is also on edgefield

[fresh tide]

do i hear the sound or na

[azure sedge]

yes

[fresh tide]

so thats why i cant loop it

[fresh tide]

can i hear banshee scream or deogen breath

[azure sedge]

edgefield is worst map for looping oat

[cobalt onyx]

Through sound sensor? No

[fresh tide]

agreed

[fresh tide]

parabolic is much better

i havent seen someone grab the sound sensor once

[desert chasm]

I don't usually loop the ghost for more than a few seconds

[cobalt onyx]

Currently they’re mostly used by van camper teams on large maps

[fresh tide]

y

[desert chasm]

They can be good for hearing ghost writing

[fresh tide]

i only loop the ghost if i dont know the ghost type

[tender gale]

does goryos ability work on normal camera or night vision only

[desert chasm]

Gotta love being dead, seeing ghost writing ( one of the really faint ones ) leading people down and throwing a clipboard at it

All for them to not see ghost writing

[fresh tide]

camera only

[wild island]

can they remove the event from tanglewood already 🙏

[desert chasm]

Normal but not with you in the room

[dapper oak]

im confused can you identify a ghost by what it looks like when you see it or is it random skins for every ghost?

[fresh tide]

ye obkae

[desert chasm]

Random skins. The only thing they matter for is watching obake shape shift

[dapper oak]

oki thanks

[fresh tide]

i hate getting the twins in 0 evi 0 san

[desert chasm]

Twins is hard but the sound is there

[tender gale]

its literally based on speed

imagine getting goryo

[fresh tide]

i cant tell the diff bet normal and slow twin

[desert chasm]

Goryo will usually hunt from the same place. It's not a guarantee but it's something

Jinn broken breaker is literally basic

[tender gale]

i usually play no sanity no evidence on camp woodwind so i really cant tell 😭

[desert chasm]

Yeah that's hard

Personally I don't since I hate cww

[fresh tide]

why

[tender gale]

i only do cuz its brightest map

[wild flare]

How did I totally forget about the Easter event

[fresh tide]

i dont like the easter light cuz when i look for dots i cant see anything

[wild flare]

Is it green?

[tender gale]

orbs u mean

[fresh tide]

ye mb

[tender gale]

yeah that sucks

[cobalt onyx]

More yellow

[wild flare]

Do you know how long it'll last?

[fresh tide]

prob 2 weeks

[desert chasm]

I don't like the lack of distinct rooms. Some ghosts go from hard to impossible to see the ability of

[cobalt onyx]

Should be like 2 weeks left

[fresh tide]

ok

[wild flare]

we are still with community goals as Halloween aren't we?

[tender gale]

both now

community and single ones

[wild flare]

Oh that's cool

[fresh tide]

i have 2k easter pt now

[wild flare]

What does single give us?

[fresh tide]

u mean personal goal?

[wild flare]

Yeah

[fresh tide]

glowing light id card

[tender gale]

amazing

[wild flare]

I'd like that. I gotta play

[fresh tide]

its mid for me

i prefer the old forest spirit

[tender gale]

bruh no wonder this game is dying they havent really updated this game idk for how long and they raised the price 💀

[wild flare]

It will be one more for the collection

[azure sedge]

shade is the worst ghost in the entire game no doubt

[fresh tide]

how

[azure sedge]

wastes time

[wild flare]

Shades are silly little guys

[fresh tide]

shade is easy to identify

[azure sedge]

a lot of time

[fresh tide]

ok fax

shade and goryo

[azure sedge]

also if u get a hunt objective with a shade gl getting that

[wild flare]

Its introduction makes the game harder which I personally like

[fresh tide]

i play with curse possession so

[azure sedge]

especially without a cursed possession

plus shades are so boring

they literally dont do anything

[wild flare]

They get shy 😳

[grizzled maple]

long xD think about 35 mins or so xD and that times 3 rounds xD

[fresh tide]

is it me or nightmare+ is easier than lower diff

[wild flare]

It is as long as one has experience with the game

Not much is needed tho

I'd rather say faster than easier but they're not mutually exclusive

[silk wedge]

they are the real slim shady 👀

[craggy fractal]

Wtf I just got killed by a bunny

[hoary tinsel]

Nightmare is easier than amateur

[fresh tide]

cuz setup time i think

[hoary tinsel]

If it glows yellow it starts s cursed hunt

[craggy fractal]

Yeah and it was a young Thaye started by dots I placed in the ghost room

[pure plinth]

Tier 3 trophy complete doom Slayed done still gonna play the game lol my girlfriend‘s got to finish up her trophy

[azure sedge]

when will they fix the bug where if the ghost uses a crucifix it turns all the lights off

[fresh tide]

u can do ap3 multi?

[pure plinth]

No, I did it single player the trophy me and her have been doing together

[topaz star]

Nope only single

[topaz star]

Prob not

[fresh tide]

i thought that wasnt a bug

[topaz star]

Just a feature

[silk wedge]

its never a bug, it's always a feature 🥲

[fresh tide]

what map is the easiest to loop

[craggy fractal]

Wtf a bed just ate my book

[craggy fractal]

Probably Bleasdale shower

[cobalt onyx]

Tanglewood imo

[fresh tide]

it ate my crucifix

is the rev hard to loop?

[craggy fractal]

Is floor made out of floor?

[fresh tide]

yesn't

[pure plinth]

I kinda wish they would have added last year’s trophy for console players so we would have both but

[jaunty crypt]

Has anyone got the flaming bunny?

[violet moat]

yo whats the weekly?

[topaz star]

u mean the golden bunny?

[topaz star]

check pins a post from shork

[violet moat]

ty

[azure sedge]

i hate that they fixed the door glitches

[jaunty crypt]

Yes

[obsidian venture]

Anyone know how to fix stuck on initializing? (im stuck on 1 dot when wifi is on and on 2 when wifi is off)

[slim ibex]

whys my leaderboard not loading at all

[craggy fractal]

How many points do I need for the event?

[odd vale]

To fully upgrade the trophy is 3600

[odd vale]

Are you PC or console?

[slim ibex]

pc

[odd vale]

Odd. Not sure.

[slim ibex]

i thought consoles dont have them?

[ashen bough]

can you detect parabolics sounds when you are outside the house

[odd vale]

Correct. Thats why I asked.

[subtle sphinx]

can u hear parabolic from outside the house??

[topaz star]

no

[slim ibex]

i mean the leaderboard is there but it just isnt loading the ranks

[jaunty crypt]

That's what I mean

[odd vale]

I don’t know why

[slim ibex]

prob just a visual bug

[topaz star]

have u exited out of the game and load back in?

[topaz star]

most likely

[craggy fractal]

How am I even supposed to get this many?

[odd vale]

Each difficulty multiplier is a point, so a lot of people either played custom or hooked someone for custom.

It’s a lot of rounds.

Like… a lot

I haven’t even played yet

[slim ibex]

now it works

weird

[ashen bough]

If I leave the house when it hunts and the hunt gets cancelled does the cooldown between hunts still count

[craggy fractal]

Fully completed profesional gives 20-something

[fair quartz]

Hi mezzo how are you

[topaz star]

i think so

[fresh tide]

no

[odd vale]

Good. You?

[fair quartz]

I survived my first demon hunt

[odd vale]

Nice.

[fair quartz]

But died to a revenant

[odd vale]

Oof

I survived a rev a while back. That was fun haha

[sharp sparrow]

I finally did it... I have been Prestige 3 with almost 500 levels... resisting the prestige... but I needed a challenge so I prestiged today.

[merry haven]

Do we know maybe who the Phasmophobia fandom wiki editor is ?
I have a question for them. (and no, i dont know how to edit wiki pages myself, thats why i wanna ask something)

[fringe girder]

Hey guys, how do i get the update trophy in the easter challenge

[full cave]

Willow Street keeps breaking. Like the salt disappears and appears again. Carpets go missing, the main entrance doorway turns the screen grey. It really breaks immersion. I run a amd 7 7800x3d with a 4080 super so I don't understand it

[solid tendon]

Can phas make a ghost where it has a rare chance of hunting as an animal

[slim ibex]

the only problems i had with willow street is the entrance textures and lightning tweaking

other than that for me its fine

[solid tendon]

And barks in spirit box

[slim ibex]

even tho my pc is 100x more ass

[sharp sparrow]

I've never seen that Zee

[slim ibex]

is this a troll

[solid tendon]

😂it would be good

[chrome garnet]

Can a mimic mimic the teleporting of a wraith?

[topaz star]

yes

[chrome garnet]

And then it leaves emf2?

[topaz star]

yes

[undone kayak]

ghost turned on the breaker 2 seconds after I entered the house bruh

[topaz star]

if it can the yurei double touch then it can mimic wraith teleport

[chrome garnet]

Yea I wasn't sure

[full cave]

I don't think I had any lightning tweaking. The lights in candles and lanterns do tweak out in all the maps but that doesn't bother me as much as everything that's going in Willow Street

[slim ibex]

for me basement is bugged because when i place dots in the basement i can see the lightning in the garage from them

and sometimes when i look up i can see shadows and lights square shaped for some reason

doesnt matter what graphics setting

[full cave]

That's next level, I oughta check that out next time I play

[slim ibex]

could just be because of my cpu

that isnt able to render the textures fast enough

load them in i mean

[safe coral]

Will the Banshee always find their target? Even if they’re in a hiding spot?

[south violet]

while hunting if target is in the house it will ignore everyone else and look for its target if your hiding it wont find target unless your in its path or use electronics or talk

[toxic dune]

deo is the only one who will find you in a hiding spot like that

[fresh hearth]

is the challenge mode 2 or 3 evidence?

[cosmic cosmos]

am I the only one who has got stuff like this? #screenshots

[kindred crypt]

I’ve gotten it too

[mild field]

are we gonna pick a weekly challenge 😭

it keeps changing

[mild field]

check pins

[fresh hearth]

does not say how many evidence but thats fine no biggie

[mild field]

nothing but raw unfiltered rage

[mild field]

if it doesnt say anything its probably 3

[south violet]

pretty sure its 3 evi

i just pulled cards straight away got lucky with a rev and 2 deo's also pulled 3 high priestesses in 2 games

[mild field]

lucky you

[mortal sand]

I love when the ghost hunts on top of me and its a shade

+no grace period

[mental jackal]

My apologies for asking a silly question. May I ask why the Trophy Upgrade I section is greyed out but I still have some progress? I have been very on and off. Haven't read the blog post fully.

[zinc coyote]

Its been very buggy for most people

[mental jackal]

Ah, I see! What is needed in order to upgrade it? Just play the game and get event points?

[zinc coyote]

The point should (hopefully) still be counting. restarting the game helps some people

But yes, just play, figure out the ghost and find the bunnies

[mental jackal]

Got it. Cheers!

[tawny skiff]

Im on nightmare stuck between raiju and oni, no defensive items left couldn't hear if it's fast or not . It does a lot of events tho . Any ideas ?

[ornate gyro]

Is there someone playing rn mind if I join? Asia btw

[fresh hearth]

has it ever done a whisper ghost event?

[odd vale]

You can check out the LFG channels below

[tawny skiff]

Yeah

[odd vale]

Watch the blink?

[fresh hearth]

not an oni

[odd vale]

Oh yeah

[tawny skiff]

If its raiju i can't outrun no incense or crucifix left

[odd vale]

Sorry, replied before seeing that suggestion

Ah okay

Yeah, the Oni can’t do the air all event

[tawny skiff]

Alright ty ill try

You were right thanks guys

[civic wagon]

Can the devs make it so our mouths move when we talk in game

[lime token]

Maybe when character customization comes out

[undone kayak]

wait, am I wrong or shades cannot hunt at the same room as the players?

[mortal sand]

Yea

But it can glitch

Even insym got this glitch

[undone kayak]

meanwhile I had placed down a crucifix in the corridor between kitchen and garage in tangle. ghost started a hunt in the dining room I was waiting in the corner

[undone kayak]

I miraculously survived but couldnt test for myling (it was myling)

[undone kayak]

2 events within 2 mins in the same room as I was can confirm lol

[mortal sand]

Damn

[undone kayak]

most agreessive shade Ive ever gotten

[wise oyster]

Ghosts teleport for events, including Shade

[undone kayak]

ah

[wise oyster]

if it was a Shade, it was out of the room when it initiated the event

[undone kayak]

but still 2 events within 2 mins? not even a young thaye aint that aggressive

[wise oyster]

at 50% sanity and below, Shade has the same event chances as other ghosts.

[undone kayak]

it was semi start so idk prlly bad rng

[storm badge]

Grafton and Tanglewood reworks will release later in 2025

[undone kayak]

do we got news about that? like what they're gonna change etc?

[wise oyster]

we know Grafton is going to be more run-down and dilapidated to further separate it from Bleasdale. No info on Tanglewood; it's speculated that it won't change much, just have the Unity assets replaced with custom ones

[storm badge]

This is what it says...........................These reworks are all about bringing these maps in line with our full vision for them. So you can expect to see complete artistic overhauls of each map, including new assets and animations, a high level of visual detail as well as a few layout changes. They’ll still be the maps you’ve grown to love through endless investigations

[undone kayak]

ah nice, Ive been mostly playing with tangle, really good for event stuff small map = easy points

[wise oyster]

Yeah TW's been nice for the event

I thought they'd do it last since it's so played, but it also makes sense they want the first map players see to be one of "theirs"

[storm badge]

I wish they made more ID badges

[undone kayak]

yea I see the logic behind it. Honestly it's a nice place for starters to practice losing los and getting the feel of a map without flashlight and stuff

so yea even if they change the layout hope they keep the basic points

[storm badge]

i dont want tanglewood to change tbh. that map holds so much nostolgia

[rustic field]

hop on warframe

[lime token]

I think the tanglewood change will be awesome, it would look so much better with new assets

Like imagine the same layout, same rooms but the map looked 15x better

[undone kayak]

if they keep the layout I'd be happy ngl

[rustic field]

tanglewood current layout is trash

[wise oyster]

The fact they're doing 2 complete reworks, 1 new map, AND tanglewood all in 2025 makes me think it's just gonna be new assets, same layout.

[lime token]

With how good of a job they did with bleasdale, i have high expectations with these new reworks

[rigid linden]

loud incorrect buzzer

[lime token]

I highly doubt we are getting ALL of that this year

[rustic field]

vro if u unironically think tanglewood is a good map ur either a beginner or you mostly play tanglewood

[storm badge]

how do you get you level/prestige on here?

[rigid linden]

probably late year

[undone kayak]

I mean it doesnt have to be like a big update with every change added, prolly one by one or sth

[rustic field]

its the 2nd worst house map

[wise oyster]

I've often said Tanglewood is too small for its own good, and the tight layout can confuse new players (with ghosts doing interactions through the walls), but it's a fine map

[lime token]

Become a booster and then change your name on this server

[rigid linden]

edited it to match my game with server profile name

[topaz star]

its wayy too small

[rustic field]

u mess up in tanglewood ur done

[lime token]

Or ask one of the mods to add it on to your name

[topaz star]

get those house in a box

[rustic field]

theres like 20 dead ends

[wise oyster]

That's partially why I prefer Willow

[storm badge]

how can i do that?

[rustic field]

best house map

[lime token]

Boost the server

[topaz star]

imagine a small map thats a house box

[lime token]

Willow is so good

[rustic field]

willow is objectively the easiest house map and by far

[topaz star]

willow i like

[wise oyster]

a house box?

[rigid linden]

wait, the ability to edit server profile is for bossters only in this server?

[lime token]

It has the easiest loop spot in the game, that being the couch

[lime token]

Yep

[topaz star]

its the ones u fold up into a box

[rustic field]

willow has all the strengths of every map combined in one

[wise oyster]

People don't like Willow b/c of the large basement, but at least the basement is 3 actual rooms, not "one" big room like Edgefield

[topaz star]

if u google search it u see ehat i mean

[storm badge]

$200 a month. no thankyou

[topaz star]

where u get 200 from lmao

[storm badge]

if i boost it 30 times

[topaz star]

oh lol

[ivory urchin]

wat

[topaz star]

why 30 timesss

[storm badge]

lol idk

[ivory urchin]

[wise oyster]

thanks I hate it

[ivory urchin]

you only need one

[rigid linden]

well at least when you boost once you get bososter perks forever

[topaz star]

[storm badge]

$6 a month still alot

[lime token]

I just handed over the 5 euro and then canceled the subscription so i kept the lifetime booster status

I like pink name

[storm badge]

oh rlly?

[wise oyster]

one boost is all you need, not every month

[storm badge]

hmm

[odd vale]

I don’t play that

[rustic field]

hop on

[topaz star]

NEVERRRR

should stop bugging people to play

[odd vale]

No thanks

Even if I had wanted to, I am not at home.

[rustic field]

vrother u are NOT the stalker

[rustic field]

hop on

[storm badge]

my bank account looking extra empty today 😭

[topaz star]

??? lmao

[odd vale]

Also, LFG for games other than Phas is against the rules. So stop.

[rustic field]

im not lfg im asking you specifically

[odd vale]

I’m not playing.

And this is PHAS chat. So Phas is the topic.

[topaz star]

ur a mimic

[odd vale]

applied to Phas just like IRL

[odd vale]

Or am I?

[topaz star]

mimicing a wraith, i feel ur aura

[ivory urchin]

[ivory urchin]

[topaz star]

[storm badge]

yessssssss, now how i add my prestige again?

[ivory urchin]

aight see ya fam imma headout

[odd vale]

Go to main menu lobby

[topaz star]

go in ur profile, change server profile name

[wise oyster]

Edit Profile > Per-Server Profiles > Server Nickname

[topaz star]

i did that and its not working, oh i know now lol

[storm badge]

thankyou everyone

[topaz star]

no prob

[lime token]

You know what, i AM getting these 4 levels i need for P5

[topaz star]

only P4?

thought u be on P10

[lime token]

Have not been bothered to grind

[topaz star]

smart

[wise oyster]

Meanwhile I'm trying to bring myself to get 5 levels to be 1200

[topaz star]

reason i stopped caring to grind the points

[lime token]

I have only played like 671 cases so far

And i am getting majorly burnt out

T3 smudges are so underrated

[topaz star]

i always use T2

cant stand T1 and T3

[lime token]

You can do some cool tech with t3

[wise oyster]

T2 is the go-to, I've gotta have a reason to use T1, and T3 never

[simple swallow]

What does it mean by upgrade trophy?

[topaz star]

same like for tier items

[lime token]

Gain points to upgrade your trophy

[fresh tide]

it is what it is

[zinc coyote]

[odd vale]

The trophy has a chance in decoration to make it slightly more elaborate

[storm badge]

Im moving to the UK now

need that Job so i can get an ID badge

[zenith coral]

Why do both tangle and willow have the event rn

[odd vale]

The maps rotate

[zenith coral]

This makes orbs so much harder

[odd vale]

Ohhhhh

Yeah, I’ve heard that

Your name keeps making me think of work lol

[sweet stream]

first time doing ridgeview strat i was afk and it was a deogen 🔥

[zenith coral]

15x is not worth it for unrestricted

[storm badge]

I agree

[odd vale]

I’ll try for it eventually.

[modern mauve]

Apoc3 isn't as insurmountable as you might think

[storm badge]

@odd vale You stream?? Im pretty i watch your streams

[zenith coral]

camp woodwind so good for getting easy xp

[atomic leaf]

it’s so fun

[storm badge]

hey @atomic leaf

[lime token]

Taking screenshots of all these new prestiges is quite satisfying

[atomic leaf]

hey

[zenith coral]

nooooo it's also an event map so I can't see anything

[odd vale]

I stream, yeah.

[zenith coral]

Cause that damn rain blinds everything

[storm badge]

@atomic leaf What time on Saturday is your stream?

[zenith coral]

Night vision does help a little

[atomic leaf]

idk I usually go live whenever 😭

[odd vale]

On vacay at the moment

[zenith coral]

Morois and thaye on 0 sanity is always so shit

[storm badge]

Ok, but u wont go live at 2am again tho right?

[zenith coral]

Can never tell em apart

[atomic leaf]

whatever like 2pm EST is for you is usually when I go live

[atomic leaf]

gotta listen for the LOS speed up

plus moroi starts slower than a thaye

[storm badge]

yeah thats fair. ill stay up. Got nothing better to do

[compact pine]

Difference between Moroi and Thaye is quite easy, Moroi and Twins is hard if you don't have incense

[atomic leaf]

mixing up moroi and twins is kinda crazy on 0 sanity

moroi is waaayyy faster

[zenith coral]

Might have twins rn first hunt was extremely slow

[brave hazel]

Not Rev or Hantu?

[compact pine]

It's the easiest thing to mix up, all other ghost identification is extremely easy

[random stratus]

im sorry what

[zenith coral]

Nope no los it seems aswell

Not a hantu as I'm in the ghost room and no breath

[random stratus]

i mixed up a moroi and twins once, but it was at 70% sanity

[compact pine]

Breath is only with breaker off btw

[zenith coral]

Could be a thaye, I've been in the ghost room the entire time

[compact pine]

I constantly mixed them up but then I learned that moroi gets smudged for 7.5s instead of 5

[random stratus]

if it was a thaye it would be slow as fuck with no LOS speed-up

[zenith coral]

camp woodwing so it's always off

[compact pine]

That doesn't really make sense, how was the first hunt slow?

Thaye starts off as fast

[random stratus]

first hunt doesn't mean fast

[brave hazel]

Are you playing with 0 sanity?

[zenith coral]

They age if you stand in the ghost room

[zenith coral]

Yes

[compact pine]

Yeah I know how Thaye works but if the first hunt was slower than the others then it's not a Thaye

[zenith coral]

https://discord.com/channels/435431947963990026/768070291322044446

[random stratus]

it can be the 6th hunt and it can still be super fast, it just matters whether you found the room or not

[brave hazel]

And was it really fast initially or no?

[compact pine]

.

[zenith coral]

I feel like it's way slower imma just go

[brave hazel]

Huh

[compact pine]

Check for mimic, cuz it can't not have LoS and first hunt is slower than the rest and there's no freezing breath

[zenith coral]

It was a damn spirit

[compact pine]

Either it's mimic or it does have LoS

yeah okay

[brave hazel]

Istg Spirits are the new Mimics

[candid apex]

yo I was just on point hope and there was a silent ghost hunt? like I did not hear any sounds but saw the ghost chasing me ol

is that possible

[compact pine]

Myling is possible

Either it was further than 12m or your volume just isn't loud enough

[zenith coral]

Jinn speeds up within 3m right

[candid apex]

I have volume on max

ALso it cant be myling since there was no uv

[random stratus]

no no, speeds up and then SLOWS DOWN at 3m, basically slow far away, fast once it catches up to you

wait what? other way around

[zenith coral]

I feel like once it's close it speeds up

[compact pine]

If breaker is on:
Jinn is faster with LoS if further than 3 meters

[brave hazel]

If it has los on you, breaker is on, and you're further than 3m away, it speeds up to 2.5m/s until it's close enough

[compact pine]

That sounds like a Raiju

Or just regular LoS

Either way, breaker is off so you can't identify a Jinn

[brave hazel]

The one thing I hate about no evidence, you can't check for Jinn

[wise oyster]

Checking for Jinn w/ broken breaker is a 23-step process

[atomic leaf]

if you want to make Raiju easier for yourself just remember it has a base boosted heartbeat

[compact pine]

I do one hunt CWW so I can't identify like 9 ghosts

[compact pine]

I'm not the one that needs help with ghost identification here

[brave hazel]

Yeah, but once I'm sure it's a Jinn it turns out to be a Shade

[atomic leaf]

just throwing it out there cause it’s not something many people know 😔

[wise oyster]

It's prolly just my old ears, but I swear I don't notice it when playing. I can hear it better on streams w/o my headphones

[compact pine]

Yeah I'm pretty sure I know absolutely everything now. Took a few weeks to learn

[zenith coral]

I forgot a lighter for incense

[atomic leaf]

my whole room starts shaking when I get a Raiju

[wise oyster]

yeah if I had my sub on, maybe I'd notice it

[compact pine]

I usually know it's a Raiju before it even comes close to me since I do Yokai tests

[zenith coral]

IT WAS A JINN

[atomic leaf]

testing for obake with this event has been nothing but brutal

why must I use a music box every game 💔

[gaunt juniper]

Bruh 💀

[compact pine]

I thought Obake was broken, I got it like 3 times in CWW and it didn't shapeshift a single time

[atomic leaf]

it can’t shapeshift but you can still identify it with no evidence

[brave hazel]

How though

[atomic leaf]

if it does a walking ghost event it will skip footsteps

[compact pine]

Lol

[brave hazel]

Is it just old Spirit all over again or smt

[lime token]

What do yall know about the goryo frame drop tech

[atomic leaf]

well that was a double footstep this is more so it stops giving footsteps for a second and then they come back

[compact pine]

I once identified an Obake because the ghost model randomly appeared for a split second, no event or hunt it just glitched and I guessed Obake correctly

[crimson vine]

hi

[wise oyster]

It will? My experience is it might

[compact pine]

I assume it was switching through models or something

[atomic leaf]

sometimes you have to get to walk for a WHILE before it actually does the skip

eventually it will happen but if it’s too close you might not get it

[wise oyster]

Fair enough, I'm also willing to accept "skill issue" as an answer, which I will then redirect to KG for not fixing it

[atomic leaf]

i’ve guessed a lot of obakes wrong just because I didn’t get the skipped footsteps so I don’t think it’s a skill issue more so just an RNG issue

[wise oyster]

You're too kind

[lime token]

Is raiju heartbeat a bug or a mechanic

[atomic leaf]

gotta be a bug

it came with the bleasdale release

[wise oyster]

also ruined part of the 0ev section on the cheat sheet with that bug

can't test for static with no heartbeat currently

[zenith coral]

That's all ghosts

I had a jinn do that

[atomic leaf]

💀

it’s only obake

[harsh radish]

ok guys i was spamming light switch and i got emediatly turned of after the 4th time but it wasnt the ghost mare

[atomic leaf]

if the ghost gets stuck on something while it’s walking it can sound the same as obake but if the ghost is just walking in a straight line with nothing blocking it and it skips footsteps it is 100% obake

[harsh radish]

can someone explain

[lime token]

You either double clicked or it was a coincidence

[wise oyster]

other ghosts can give a false positive "Mare ability," part of why Mare sucks

[harsh radish]

is that just a coinsedence then?

[wise oyster]

yep

[harsh radish]

i hate mare

[rotund shuttle]

ha dead get it because its about ghosts..

i'll just see myself out

[vestal spruce]

anybody else experience extreme frame loss when playing on xbox, more specifically on the brownstone map?

[vocal orbit]

I got freezing temps imo

[fresh tide]

same

[lime token]

Updates take a while to come out but the game is FAR from dead

[cloud forum]

OMG !!! SUCH A DEAD GAME, LITTERALY 0 UPDATES.....THE ROADMAP IS SO FAKE

[main meadow]

Definitely not a frame lost on brownstone, that map has like nothing going on to cause frame loss lol

[turbid lance]

brownstone, or bleasdale?

[odd vale]

Just ignore the rage bait.

[vestal spruce]

brownstone is really bad. Ive experienced it on other maps too, even smaller ones like edgefield too

[vestal spruce]

i would think the same thing, but between me and a couple of friends i play with, we've all lagged out of that map at least once lol

[main meadow]

Lagging out on the map especially if you get the pop up that says client disconnected anything like that could be connection issues that's seriously one of the maps that needs some props added has like nothing going on

Heh legging

[turbid lance]

k cuz I get lag on bleasdale, but not much on other maps. a little here and there with the event.
it's been a while since I've played brownstone, but that one was always clean as a whistle.
you have a stable connection?

[vestal spruce]

its always that map tho 😭 and we all have damn near 1gb mbps internet

[turbid lance]

brownstone is huge, but it's one of the older maps and therefore doesn't have much in it to lag you

T.T ok

[vestal spruce]

yeah it doesnt make a whole lot of sense to me because even when i play on prison, i dont get any sort of frame drop whatsoever

[turbid lance]

you might make a post in #1082421799578521620

[tardy dagger]

Hi guys,
What do you think about the Bleasdale rework?

[candid moat]

Is anyone having issues with the trophy upgrade 1, like I have to leave my room just for the point to claim and update my presentage

[zinc coyote]

its been buggy for a lot of people

[fossil parrot]

can anyone help me with graphics settings?

[candid moat]

It's just really annoying cause I'm having to leave the room just to see how much I've done.

[abstract osprey]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[zinc coyote]

yea hopefully they fix it soon. its a pain

[frank oxide]

It's awesome

[abstract nacelle]

How do you progress the trophy upgrade 1 for the event, i did a few investigations and found the spirit and correct ghost but it stays at 0%

[turbid lance]

if you've already upgraded your ID card, it's probably a visual glitch resolved with leaving the lobby or restarting the game.

the upgraded ID card is a prerequisite tho

[abstract nacelle]

yup that did it thx

[turbid lance]

yw!

[faint breach]

how many points total are needed for all the solo rewards?

[zinc coyote]

3600

[random stratus]

BRO HOW HAVE I GOTTEN 4 RAIJUS BACK TO BACK

KINETIC PLEASE BREAK THE CYCLE I BEG OF YOU

RELEASE ME FROM THIS HELLISH LOOP

[faint breach]

gotcha ty

[gentle veldt]

is it worth it to get phas vr

[zinc coyote]

at least raijus are ez

[zinc coyote]

its buggy but its fun

[random stratus]

@zinc coyotein a alternate universe there exists "Glowstick- Grimm Eater"

[zinc coyote]

[gentle veldt]

i need to upgrade my pc if i wanna play vr, so im trying to see if its gonna be worth the money since if im being realistic im only upgrading it to play phas vr

[random stratus]

yes and no, Thaye WAS an option, but i was confused at first because i thought to myself "i would've slowed it down no?" but i didn't hear it slow down, so the first hunt its speed was consistently high

[austere bane]

I haven't done my personal goals for the event yet, but since it says Upgrade 1, are they going to release more upgrades in other weeks of the event, or are there more upgrade tiers avaliable now?

[random stratus]

i got a second hunt just to be sure, and there i heard it get its electricity speed up

[zinc coyote]

if its only for phas vr then no (imo) its kinda jank sometimes and right now it has major issues with the ghost not even detecting you

[zinc coyote]

[dusky temple]

how do we get the event trophy?

[gentle veldt]

thank you!!

[zinc coyote]

same as the ID card

its buggy tho, try resetting your game and doing another match

[quick ridge]

Guys i am stuck help me

[random stratus]

yeah i could've left after the first hunt and guess raiju, but why guess when you can get a 100% answer

felt lazy to leave right away

[quick ridge]

I play 3 games and got 25+ points in every game on curse hollow map still id card level 1 0% why its not increasing

?

[vivid abyss]

Now tell me why i got my badge removed? I did the bunny thing😭

[cosmic cosmos]

there's a weird delay between when you get points and the % updating in the event page thing

usually 1-2 games behind

[queen lintel]

is the interaction setting for the ghost for the weekly set to low?

[dapper oak]

where can i send clips bcs i wanna know what the hell happened to me

[dapper oak]

i heard a weird scream then it made me drop my items

[dusky temple]

had a mimic be a banshee it was so funny

[queen lintel]

that's from the bunny

[dusky temple]

the ghost orbs were just following me around

[cosmic cosmos]

forest minion, someone triggered it by showering the bunny with DOTS

[dusky temple]

😭

[dapper oak]

ohh from the easter thing?

[queen lintel]

yes

[dapper oak]

yess thats what i was holding

makes sense thx

[dusky temple]

my trophy thing is greyed out

[quick ridge]

Guys?

[cosmic cosmos]

if it does the jumpscare, it'll cause you to drop whatever item you were holding (in multiplayer, it goes for a random player)

[dapper oak]

i thought it was a poltergeist or smth bcs I know they throw stuff

[queen lintel]

all of my runs on the weekly challenge so far, the ghost have been soooooooooooo inactive where they wouldn't touch a single door

Ok

Checking

[queen lintel]

I had 2 reveanant, a banshee, and a thaye that wouldn't let me check for uv without having salt

[random stratus]

@zinc coyotewhich ghosts can hunt at 70% sanity? ik onryo can but i mean automatically, without... external help

[queen lintel]

all of my games, for which I was playing with a friend, we had to guess everything except for the first revanant because the ghosts were inactive and we were only able to get at least 2 evidences the entire mission because they refused to touch anything

[zinc coyote]

demon, yokai, oreo

[queen lintel]

we got lucky with the tarrot cards and got the first revanant to hunt multiple times and we were able to identify the speed of a revanant

[random stratus]

okay so only demon, yokai and onryo rely on external factors, but yeah thanks, i was just wondering how fucked i was

@zinc coyoteonce the moroi marks you with its curse, you lose sanity inside the house no matter what, correct?

[queen lintel]

demon hunts naturally at 70% sanity or use its ability that allows it to hunt above 70% sanity; yokai hunts at 80% sanity if you're talking near it; onryo would hunt at any sanity if it blows out 3 candles and/or lanterns; otherwise it hunts at 60% sanity

[random stratus]

well yokai IS an option, so i guess i'll see

[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.

[queen lintel]

I have an idea for a new possible map: an irl haunted ship

[analog widget]

not a bad idea

[queen lintel]

like the USS Lexington or Queen Marry

[analog widget]

but i've heard the idea before

[sonic fog]

...where would the van dock though, unless the ship's still in port?

[candid apex]

can i ask about goryo? If he only appears on cameras but Ive seen him on my own when being in a room can it still be goryo?

[analog widget]

but the likelyhood of the devs making a boat map like that is unlikely unless it was a yacht since they have said that they don't plan on making big maps because of the time it would take

[analog widget]

if you see dots without a camera then it isn't a goryo

[hushed pendant]

goryo will only show up on DOTS only via the camera. if u see him in a room... without dots, the ghost might be eventing

[queen lintel]

I mean they could do what they did with point hope

[candid apex]

alright thank u guys so its wraith

[analog widget]

People were not a fan of point hope

I wouldn't bet on them making a boat map

But I could see them making a train map

[tawny skiff]

The 1st time i played it my game crashed i took it as a sign ,never again

[analog widget]

yeah it is not optimized well

are you on console?

[blissful gust]

oreo

[random stratus]

holy shit im the goat

only one piece of evidence, this ghost was giving me so much shit

it did one thing that gave it away, it opened two doors, that were nowhere near close to each other

the twins

[zinc coyote]

Oreo

[random stratus]

they really fucked with my head though, i was super confused

[blissful gust]

the twins

[wise oyster]

[blissful gust]

congratulations

[random stratus]

that felt fucking cool though, that THAT'S how i figured it out, im glad its how i figured it out

[sudden igloo]

I love how you all can tell which ghost is which and I'm here who gets scared when it hunts 😭

[random stratus]

a lot more fun than waiting for evidence

that's why professional bores me

[blissful gust]

it’s gotta be rare that to happen to

[queen lintel]

I found it cool because it's something that yes maybe be annoying, but it's have the elements to the real world

[random stratus]

first time it happened for me, cool as fuck if you ask me

[wise oyster]

yup, that's why people say the game starts at 0ev

[blissful gust]

nah fr professional is so easy

[wise oyster]

Prof = "Normal" imo

[random stratus]

RIGHT? its just "wait for evidence" simulator

you will never learn the full game from professional

[wise oyster]

Amateur and Intermediate = Very Easy and Easy modes

[blissful gust]

nightmare is normal / balanced mode for me

with activity board and sanity board on at least

[compact pine]

I have never even played amateur and intermediate, immediately started on professional

[wise oyster]

and we're all very impressed

[compact pine]

nope it's boring asf

my friend proceeded to introduce me to CWW strat

[blissful gust]

my first few games i played amateur and i had a demon that hunted at 90 sanity lol so i stayed on low difficulties for a bit

[compact pine]

so I grinded CWW with like an hour of playtime lmao

[wise oyster]

that's sad

[compact pine]

phasmo is like the only game that's fun to grind

[wise oyster]

ruined the entire learning curve for yourself. So many lost potential experiences

[compact pine]

I disagree but thanks for your opinion

[blissful gust]

what is that?

[compact pine]

most games resort to afk grinding for levels but this is actually fun

[wise oyster]

1-hunt speedruns

[blissful gust]

ohh

[modern mauve]

train station map would be cool af

[analog widget]

agreed

[sudden igloo]

That actually does sound cool

[blissful gust]

how about another house

kidding

[sudden igloo]

It would be good if the station was like a few stories but no as big as the school

Personal rewards progress is quite fast, played Nightmare for 2 hours and got 70% through the first reward and still 12 days to go

[frosty cargo]

points needed for trophy upgrade doubles after each upgrade

[modern mauve]

Don't put that evil on us

Next stop: Suplex City

[undone kayak]

Might be me but I don't really like cww, mostly because the definition of "room" in the map is kind of a guess (without a map layout) but prolly that's just me

[untold tartan]

Oh really, that is good to know

Still dont think its that bad pace wise

[frosty cargo]

it was something like 800 then 1500 and then 3600

or something like that

[untold tartan]

Ahhh ok

Still not terrible

Can still easily do it with consistency perfect games imo

[frosty cargo]

progress carries over to next year event i think

[vestal ferry]

When we get tier 4 smudge chat?

[untold tartan]

What would it do? Permanently slow the ghost for the whole hunt?

🤔

[frosty cargo]

remove the ghost

[untold tartan]

👀

[untold tartan]

Lol

[vestal ferry]

Dunno. Just make it the old burrito smudge

ghost is too high to continue hunting

[last drift]

Must be an Indica

[lime holly]

Def not. 3600 points takes about 6 hours to get with the speedrun method. A casual player would likely need at least 30 and most people wont have that time. The point requirement for all rewards shouldve been much lower

[vestal ferry]

People felt like rewards meant nothing before.
Makes then harder to get
Now its too hard for casual players to get
Devs can never win with events.

[modern mauve]

Well, it appears that it wasn't designed to get in one event to begin with, hence the steeper point goals

[vestal ferry]

Yeh.

[modern mauve]

Regardless of how you like the model of the events and how they're done, they're at least trying to reduce the level of "FOMOness"

[lime token]

What do yall know about the T4 trophy that unlocks at 100k points?

[modern mauve]

I earned that day 1

[subtle horizon]

🫠

[lime holly]

i dont like that system at all. In a casual player’s perspective It does not feel good to know your missing out on trophy upgrades and others have it

[modern mauve]

There's the flipside where people don't have time to get the trophy even with it being easy to get, and miss out on it purely because they were busy

[lime token]

Honestly, the t3 trophy is my favorite one out of all of them

I love the eyes on them

[modern mauve]

There are those who can't even get any of the trophies before Blood Moon, and have emptier cabinets

[lime holly]

Im fine with having legacy trophies. It gives older players something special

[lime token]

But then again console players DO miss out on them

They will never have holiday 22 id card 😭

[wise oyster]

The old events had the best system: Creative, unique gameplay that took a few hours but was not especially difficult.

[modern mauve]

And an inherent FOMO system, it's pick your poison really

[lime holly]

Yeah this. And im also fine with community events too

[subtle horizon]

Looked this up and now im jealous 😔

I want a snowman

[modern mauve]

I'm not giving my own opinion, just that there's pros and cons

[wise oyster]

While it wouldn't fit 1:1 in Phas, DRG does a good job of this. There's a main mission you can do for current year, and another you can do for the past years' rewards.

[lime token]

In an ideal world, we would have a community event alongside a solo event

[lime holly]

If they wanna introduce harder-to-get trophies, make them permanent like the apoc challenge

[modern mauve]

That's kinda what they've done here

[opaque echo]

one of the problems with making innovative, unique, and wholly creative holiday events for a small team, is it takes time and resources away from developing the game =\

[lime holly]

Thats a hard trophy done right imo

but the event trophies should be easy to obtain

[opaque echo]

that time they developed the snowball gun for a holiday event basically meant 2-3 months of development time from actual perm game updates haha

[wise oyster]

Yeah, and while I've largely made peace with that rationale, my patience for not having the experience clear, smooth, and polished is much lower.

[lime token]

There is so much potential for trophys and ID cards as well

[opaque echo]

wow you want a polished and smooth experience? so demanding

[wise oyster]

crazy, i know

[modern mauve]

I'm fine with how the events are right now, because they're actually getting on with the main game - I DO expect better events after 1.0

[remote wedge]

Okay, I'm confused, some people say all ghost can fully shut doors (out of event/hunt) and some say only the Yurei (what i believe) is the only one that can, what is true?

[lime holly]

Yeah i totally get that. Im fine with the community events. All i think needs changinf in the easter event is the point requirement to get all rewards

[opaque echo]

hopefully with the truly massive expansion of the team in the past 4-6 months we'll see the more difficult to quash performance bugs and improvements coming our way more rapidly.

[untold tartan]

Lol

[lime holly]

Instead of 3600 it could be like 1000

[vivid crater]

🔥

[modern mauve]

If the current trello progress is anything to go by, I'd say this is already happening

[wise oyster]

all can, Yurei has a signature double-tap along with the 15% sanity drain, and ofc non-Yureis can't move the front door outside of events/hunts

[lime token]

Thats setting the bar a bit too low i think

[vestal ferry]

Any ghost can close a door. Yurei is just gonna be more likely due to its ability

[remote wedge]

Ohhh

[untold tartan]

Disagree, if you factor in that it lasts 3 weeks plenty of time

[remote wedge]

Thanks

[modern mauve]

What I will say, if you'd like to see changes - make your points clear with what you want when feedback threads come out. They've already proven they're taking the suggestions to heart

I have a list of things myself

[wise oyster]

"Execute better"

[modern mauve]

very helpful

[vestal ferry]

Let me age a thaye to 10k without it breaking

[lime holly]

It may be. I just feel like anything that takes more than 10 hours of gameplay to get all rewards within 3 weeks is too little time, in the perspective of a casual player

[main meadow]

I don't know a lot of people found 3600 too little..
For the casual players apparently it's going to be available for you to upgrade next year

[lime token]

I dont mind if events become worse for the sake of improving the base game

[lime holly]

But im not a casual so i cant say if 1000 is too little or not

[wise oyster]

"Stop making excuses"

[vestal ferry]

Reasons /= excuses

[lime token]

Like just give us Nells Diner if it means that halloween will be a copy paste of last year

[wise oyster]

There is no legitimate "reason" Obake can't shapeshift.

[modern mauve]

Execute better is too vague lol, if you want changes the way YOU envision, you need to be clearer. The devs have different ideas of their own, and different intrepretations like any other human on the planet

[modern mauve]

The reason, is that it doesn't really matter for anyone who plays casually

[lime token]

It does matter for sweaty people like us though

[wise oyster]

It matters for anyone who plays Nightmare

[vestal ferry]

Like 95% of the player base it doesnt matter to. Other bugs are more important than that tbh. Id rather see other things fixed than obake for events

[modern mauve]

And we make up a very small (albeit loud) minority

With very strong opinions

[lime token]

A simple solution would have been to make it so obake switches between crawling and standing positions during hunt

[vestal ferry]

Majority of players arent in the discord. Majority of players dont know ghost abilities are even a thing tbf.

[remote wedge]

Hold up, phasmo has a x32/x86 version?

[modern mauve]

I say "we" because I do include me in there

[wise oyster]

Like what? There are tons of silly bugs still. The idea that more would be broken if Obake worked properly doesn't help their case, and these are sound like excuses, not real reasons

[vestal ferry]

We say simple but we legit dont know if and what it would have broken.

[lime token]

I do hope the raiju heartbeat tech stays in the game if it is a bug

[vestal ferry]

Or if they tried and it did break more than what was worth fixing

[modern mauve]

The biggest reason is that this is still an unfinished product, and plenty of bugs aren't going to be fixed when there were only two programmers, one of said programmers who spent/spends 90% of his time running his business

[wise oyster]

Simple, brillaint, not implemented. Like how about cleaning up event board bugs so dozens of people aren't asking why they can't upgrade every day, or leave DOTS pens outside the maps so people know they need DOTS for the nests. Just death by 1000 cuts stuff here

[modern mauve]

I don't disagree that the bugs should get squashed, but how "simple" things are might not be as simple to a programmer

[brave pebble]

do u get more event points if the game multiplier is higher (i get 27 on average)

[modern mauve]

It all comes down to prioritisation of work, which is even more important to a smaller team

[vestal ferry]

Just fix the bug. Ignore anything it might break in progress

[wise oyster]

yes, if you get the ghost type right

[wise oyster]

tbh they dont' get the small team excuse anymore either

[vestal ferry]

Yesms. 1 point per whole number on multiplier

[lime token]

Yep, +1 point for every number IF you get the ghost correct

[brave pebble]

thank u @wise oyster @vestal ferry

[wise oyster]

That just sounds like "Can't do anything because it would require competence."

[vestal ferry]

It takes on average someone 6 months to be trained and find their grove in a company. I expect things to start becoming more smooth as the newer members mature in the company.

[wise oyster]

So do I, and that's why I'm being so vociferous with my opinion, b/c ample time has passed for that assimilation to take place.

[modern mauve]

Bugs breaking things has very little to do with incompetence, any and every programmer should be telling you that bugs happen

Again, early access model, you'll see more broken things than not

[opaque echo]

I think they also keep running into problems from back when DK was just starting. a lot of the base code is probably "spaghetti code" from when he was learning. Wonder how much has been wholly replaced

[wise oyster]

ofc, but what goes out the door is another story. I'm not judging them on their internal processes, which ofc I have no idea about

[vestal ferry]

That too. Lol. Having to learn Dks original madness in the game xD

[opaque echo]

man has probably learned a ton in these 5 years

[errant cloud]

has anyone else had their level plaque in the lobby reset to 0?

[vestal ferry]

This isnt like the yandere dev situation where dk is blocking the programmers from what i can tell
So like. My hopes are there

[modern mauve]

I can only imagine DK had to make a lot of shortcuts when the game originally came out

[wise oyster]

DM @violet nova for account issues

[modern mauve]

Being a one man band and all

[opaque echo]

i do hope the perf issues become a thing of the past soon though

[vestal ferry]

Less complicated game back then as well.

[modern mauve]

I hope so

[vestal ferry]

The new rendering method of bleasedale has my hopes up on that. Once thats ironed out and implimented on other maps i bet we can see better performance.

[rugged scarab]

Real

[vestal ferry]

And i think they still are working to upgrade to newer unity for better performance too.

[wise oyster]

I cant' speak for console, but I've always been satisfied with how the game runs on my (very old) rig, memory leaks aside. Lots of RAM and it'll run stably for me.

[vestal ferry]

The memory leak issue is really weird considering its per time loading and not a constant leak. really makes me wonder if its a phas thing or a unity issue itself.

Other unity games can and do have that same issue

[modern mauve]

Well, it looks like it'll be fixed in the performance patch

[wise oyster]

it's a cleanup issue most likely, pretty common stuff overall. Applications take memory for (stuff) and don't properly release it

[modern mauve]

I'm assuming so, because they're putting in a new culling system

[vestal ferry]

Vrchat has memory leak issues constantly. So i hope phas can fix it.

Like i assume they have a cleanup system that in theory works fine. But with unity may be working oddly.

[north plinth]

i completed gold apoc, do i have to get silver to get the trophy?

[modern mauve]

I don't notice the leak when I'm playing normally, but hell did I notice when I was grinding Easter points

[vestal ferry]

Yes

[north plinth]

dang it

[modern mauve]

Silver will show up once you restart iirc

[vestal ferry]

Oh wait

Sorry misread. You do get them!!!

[north plinth]

oh okie good

thank you

[vestal ferry]

Curse dislexia sometimes my bad ❤️

[modern mauve]

Not having salt sucks

[frank oxide]

Yeah, it's a pretty critical seasoning.

[vestal ferry]

Typical uk problem i see

[wise oyster]

GordonRamsay.gif

[modern mauve]

oi

I like seasoning

[vestal ferry]

insert funny meme response here

[modern mauve]

It just makes these games so much slower X_X

[wise oyster]

Still Ascending?

[modern mauve]

Yup

[wise oyster]

You popped in to say hi to NukaDave yet?

[modern mauve]

I have not

[lime token]

He is a fellow Irish man like myself

I dont watch his streams often but they seem very good

[wise oyster]

I think that's why Bourbon won't watch him 😏

He's just a chill guy, says hi to everyone, remembers you were there before. It's a nice cozy stream

[modern mauve]

Ya got me

[wise oyster]

hehe

[modern mauve]

tbf, I don't watch a lotta streams
