So, the T3 UV light, is it just another flashlight? Cause these glow sticks ain't it
Glow sticks are top tier
The glow sticks are 360 that's why they preferred they also can be used when you have flashlights disabled
Also: @zinc coyote
And not electronic

any tips to get doom slayed achievement?
Play tangle on nightmare and wait for insta hunt. If not reset
Kk
75% sanity.
Forced monkey paw. Wish for activity
Player and ghost speed 150% inf sprint
Activity High
Ghost events low
Sanity drain 0%
As soon as you unlock door, start 60sec timer. Leave after 60sec. Rinse repeat until demon ability kills.
Theres a way to farm it a little faster on cww with monkey paw
Play on cww, force monkey paw, wish for activity, Max out ghost speed and player speed
Data mining and Phas together - not a discussion to be had here. Thank you.
Hey mezzo hope ur having a good day
Ooh then good morning and hope you have a good day 
Im just stressed at work atm but will be fine
I hope it lightens up for ya
Joining a public lobby with 3x lvl 3 players.. (me prestige XX 1k+) & kid goes "kick this noob"
aaa what a lovely start to a phasmo day.
walnut brains for kicking the best player
I hear all of these horror stories about lobbies. I've only joined from discord lfg and have only had maybe 1 bad experience. Seems a better way to find groups.
guys how can i report?

I woke up early myself, so I'm on an extra cup this morning
I don’t get my coffee usually until 2 hours after waking
I dont drink coffee at all 
that's smart
back in the day I won't bother about waiting, but now I wait at least 1 hour
man I prep my machine before I go to bed, coffee is ready in 3 minutes after waking
I have 2 coffees a day
I drink 3-4 coffees a day but only before noon. If I have a single one afternoon I get sick to my stomach
damn
I used to drink coffee a lot, now I am reducing and having a constant crashout
Hi Mezzo
How can you drink 3-4 coffees a day? LOL
you just space them out
1 for 9 1 for 10 1 for 11 and 1 for 12
If I drank that much I think I would be hyper for the entire day and pass out from energy. LOL
I just don’t really get around to breakfast until about 2-3 hours after waking so that’s when I get the coffee
Makes sence
I've played a lot on random lobbies... and while sure, not all of them are good, I usually find a good one fairly quickly and end up having a good experience
Bad stuff... happens, sure... but the really bad ones are rare... they're just the only stories actually told
or be brazilian lmao
I wish I could say that I space them out, but my usual is 3 coffees in the first hour I'm awake, then I drive in to work and occasionally have a 4th when I'm at work.
☕
no, brazilians can double jump
Hola
Buenas
I normally have a Monster energy drink when I'm at school. I need it because I'm always tired.
are we still on the caffeine talk?
I think
I know I will
Its honestly bad for me because I have ADHD and it sometimes makes me more tired.
and don't drink right after you woke up, or you will crash harder otherwise :D
That right? Usually I just have one in the morning and one in the afternoon
It is what fisiology tells, but the "each organism reacts differently" still applies
I dont drink one right after I wake up. I drink one while I'm in class. I only have one every other day.
Sugar crash + adhd 😭
I guess would be better for you to drink a performance drink focused on something different from energy drinks
Like what?
Idk cause we are not from the same country and I am pretty sure there is no famous international brand producing that
here we have a drink called Overclock that does that
What country?
worst better place on earth, aka Brazil
it gives you the same good effects that energy drinks have but with a different formula and without the cardiac problems
still caffeine based tho
guys wich badge is the rarest? Summoner, Winters patron or Hero of the hollow
but i mean out of these 3 wich ones the rarest of the 3
Of the ones you can earn now, prolly Completionist
but i mean out of these 3 wich ones the rarest of the 3
i like the point hope easter egg one
whichever is the oldest one
i also got the point hope one
oh no i cant send my stickers anymore i dotn have nitro nooooooooo
Would rather say p20. Much more work than completionist
What's better for T2? Crusi or thermo?
Thermo
True that
Evidence items always come first
True true
And good morning vandie
Welp I'll do that then, thanks mimi

except maybe T3 UV if you like the glowstick
Uv*
yes I'm multitasking so brain's not making the right connections
Anyone playing?
-lfg @south violet
yo
no it means use the LFG channels the bot linked to
is tier 2 incense better than tier 3?
I prefer T2. It's just whether you want the ghost slowed or stopped in place while it's blinded
what does t3 do?
....stops it in place
and blinds it?
they all do
oh, and is t2 motion sensor better than t3?
for detecting the ghost nah
but seeing where it is specifically yea
thank youu
man I just sat in the ghost room the whole time collecting photos and evidence up until the crucifix burned, last objective was incense while chasing. So I moved the crucifix out of the room and waited down the hall a ways with incense and hiding place ready. It started the hunt on top of me 
The icon for the AHA fundraiser announcement looks like an id badge, I wonder if twitch drops will release in time for this?
I don't know but the part that they labeled it as major update made me giggle
Very curious
I may be forgetful, but why when I am holding anything besides evidence items makes them go nearer the screen from the client's screen? The basketball I held just covered 30% of my screen and it is starting to bother me when it got worse.
I always use t2
That is funny, easy way to get peoples attention though
3
2 is better tho for apoc
than 1
why
slows the ghost down
@cobalt matrix Prestige 11
you need time to get away from the ghost lol
why would i want the ghost to slow down im slow as a snail
im talking about apocalypse 3
yeah, use t2
Incase u get a moroi or thaye
yea if u get a fast ghost like that youre gonna need it lmao
I'm not the count muppet
hello???
VRR is annoying on oled monitors my phas just randomly starts flickering
well not my phas just the screen in general
I get that sometimes
Just how dark the game is
do you use an oled or what
why does this make t2 smudge better its not like i can go hide anywhere else guys this is apoc 3 i really dont understand what yall talking about
I use it though because I'd rather have the screen have a tiny little flicker than experience stuttering
t2 slows the ghost down 💔 we literally said it
Sometimes slowing the ghost down during a hunt because you’re so slow can be the difference between dying and surviving. Moroi is more affected by incense.
exactly what mezzo said
ooh
apoc 3💔
Pay attention!!!
In #1254568921110024254 it mention the ghost has “hypersomnia” which means a high sensitivity to smells. Incense - smoke - affects moroi more
huh
I need some more rotten eggs
-# I may have spelled hypersomnia wrong
Close enough
wait does the t2 smudge stun the ghost (any ghost not just moroi) longer
yea, you want the ghost to be slow
*hypersomia
Moroi is 7.5 secs
The rest is 5 secs
well 5 6 7 yea
Moroi when the ghost hunter hasn't showered in months: 
i interpreted that wrong
isnt it better for the ghost to be fast so it runs away its not like i can hide in such a short time
isnt this why vandelay uses t1 smudges
or someone idk
erm no because if its a moroi and it runs towards you u might be cooked
It'll mostly come back where it last seen u
i use t1 for all but apoc
oh
so if it sees me in a room i should go change rooms
after smudge
why would i want the ghost to slow down tho
other than the photo objective
Sa
literally apoc 3 💔

am i being gaslit by everyone like whats going on am i super stupid or something
can someone help me with some tips for apocalypse? I keep on trying and moving my items slowly, but I can't get to the chapel in time
If really want to complete apoc 3 there's lots of YT vids explaining how to do it
I've watched them , thye say over and over mostly the same stuff
helpful, but was looking for more info if possible
like for example, do you reccomand tier 1 or tier 2 smudges?
basically rejoin until you get good objectives
I use t2
i use t3 for apoc but thats just my personal preference because i shit my pants when the ghost is still moving
define good objectives. for me the only no's are ghost event and crucifix
what was ur guys' first apoc ghost
Smudge, smudge Chase, escape
photo
cleanse
escape hunt
etc
Or ghost photo
5 event and cruci are a definite nono
I had witness when I completed mine
firelight? what do you think of that objective
on par w/ EMF pretty much
I had a Revenant in the waiting room so I had to get this
did they wait for you?
I waited to get that witness ghost event
Good thing I got that on vid
is the chapel a good room to camp in?
can u still do apoc 3 by hiding behind those tables
If you mean looping on the right wing stretchers, no
I think the piano spot still works
well if you wanna watch me struggle you can join the vc
I almost managed to do it, but sadly didn't take the photo so yeah
cuz ran out of smudges
I'm having a crashout against any and all hantu
Whenever I get a Hantu the candles never slow it down
And I don't get freezing
And then I had a demon who didn't hunt for 30 minutes
Favourite maps? And why is is it tangle?
woodwind
because you have great visibility of the ghost
plus that free light source, the campfire
I also hate it when the truck has a literal birdseye view of the map and not the schematics like tangle or old asylum
Edgefield 
how can I tell if the ghost is hunting when I am no near the front door in apocalypse?
light switches
if you cant turn them on or off (no matter if the breaker is broken or anything) that means its hunting
u can also use this to figure out if the ghost stopped hunting or not if it doesnt click its hunting
The wing doors also lock
i ate the key sorry
one of the worst things in the entire game btw
it sucks so bad you cant even go throught them as a ghost
no matter if its locked or not if theyre closed you cant go through
whos idea was that honestly
yo does anyone wanna watch my stream
This is not the place to advertise that, try #stream-links instead
thanks
Can the banshee always find you if you are the target
no it just ignores others
That'd be a bitch, basically a normal speed Deo with LoS

Would be funny...as long as you aren't the target
Im trying 15x rn and ghost sounds like %100 speed normal ghost speed is it rev?
Likely rev
alr thanks
I saw the media update got moved to closed beta testing on the trello, how long is that phase normally and is the last before release?
No idea. All the different projects vary
Gotcha
Either way, it's a good sign that we'll see it soon enough 🙂
WE ALL hate shades
Candles do nothing against Hantu.
I don’t.
Not the first time I’ve seen this, idk where this misinformation started, candles do nothing to temperature.
-trello
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.
the only things that that can change temperature that you can interact with are fuseboxes and camfires
People also think candles change a mares hunt threshold
and also monkey paw to change the weather i guess
Wanna make that a post about "I tried everyting"
Some of the tents have little heaters. Lighthouse has the fireplaces,
I think the boilers in Sunny Meadow do something but I can't remember
Let’s go things are now in closed beta testing
there's always almost something in closed beta

tem has the other tried everything meme.
Yeah
Bringing John Cena into the room would make the hantu faster
Maybe we finally found the plane of existence he lives on to be able to see him
I'm very curious what horror 2.0 is going to really be
Like is it going to actually change how the ghosts act and how they hunt
An overhaul of all (most?) of the horror aspects of the game, new ghost events, death animations, hunt mechanics, hallucinations etc
New ghost models
Good i can't wait, me and my girlfriend absolutely love this game, but it kind of lost the horror factor after you realized that usually only hunt from their room
😏
The horror element tends to lose it's luster no matter the kind of horror, but yeah I'm sure it'll be better
up the difficulty perhaps
Which is why the investigative and other aspects get focused on first
Well see that's the problem. I've gotten her to the point where she'll do two evidence custom, but anything other than that is a bit too difficult for her 😂
That is very true
that's not bad, and you can tweak a bunch of stuff within that to increase the tension
is there a bug report channel here?
Or not a bug and you need tech support help
thankfully #bug-reports now handles that
Sorta i've seen people put bugs in the tech support post and tech support in the bug posts
Yeah I just can't make it too difficult for her which she is getting better. She doesn't freak out and run into a corner whenever the ghost shows up now 😂
I usually play one or zero evidence
Those people weren't gonna get it right either way
Or not read any of the things any of the bots said and still talk about their save file
Shoulda seen the person I was trying to help the other day...almost felt like I was getting trolled
i do see all bourbon
I know it's easier said than done, but if she's comfortable in 2ev, she can prolly do 1ev, and if you can do 1ev, you can pretty much do 0ev
Yeah that's what I was saying. I run zero evidence and what evidence pretty often
anyone tryna run a game? it'll be with me, a beginner and my friend who only started today
-lfg ⬇️
Plus she likes messing with the equipment and finding evidence 😂 so she likes 2 evi the best
fair enough
Hey there if you want we have some LFG channels to find others to play with! Try clicking the blue text above!
Stone coming out of retirement when
I don't doubt that 
Nah I don't wanna be a full moderator again I still love the server and I report stuff and I try to help people but I'm done with being near the manager positions in this
woah, I have the weirdest visual bug I've ever seen in ~400h of play. during a hunt, my screen went almost completely black. Only the skybox is lit (as normal) - everything else is 100% black, to include my inventory items
things that generate light, seem to still do so i.e. my lighter and the screens in the truck
but like, only the light element is visible - it doesn't cast light on anything around it
so like, the t3 firelight has a bright flame, but everything around it is black

I have screenshots if it would be helpful
Idk why when I do quick loadouts my level 2 stuff don’t go through it adds my level 1 versions and I can’t fix it
disable then enable the loadout. it's dumb
You need to change the tier in the loadout
Pokemon players I’m here
yokais sometimes literally stop chasing you while looping with the flashlight on, i just had that scenario
you sure you did? Maybe double check. Left side says item name. Then next collum is the tier level. Then the amount
Want me to send pictures in your dms?
I dont take dms
Then do I make bug report?
Wassuup Pokemon friend
If you think its a bug and not a personal mistake. Then sure.
Disable loadout, change the tier (deselect it if it is on the tier you want), then enable loadout.
If it doesn’t work after that then #bug-reports
And make sure your not on weekly challenge mode.
Nothing changed but I did a report thank you
question when u use monkey paw if it smudges off evidence does it mean i have the evidence or not
But when I add amount it adds the level 2 versions
if it crosses out evidence it means that evidence is not one the ghost has
unless of course it crosses out orbs and there's a mimic. cause it can do that.
It means those are not evidence or ghosts that it could be
Hi harleen 
Anyone here ever had a demon who didn't show evidence, and didn't hunt once?
With the lights out it didn't hunt for 30 minutes
I was in the room too
This mf was annoying
Zero ghost activity in 30 minutes, I think I had the wrong house lol
I submitted shade and I got demon
More like this demon hates being the ghost type
I was on professional
Rng can be ridiculous sometimes. Like a mare not changing its room in 30 mins
Anyone have beef with the Hantu?
no but ill square up against an onryo any day
I have beef with Oni
FUCK onryos
I have beef with Hantu. My Hantu never get slowed by heat
They fast AF even when going through candles
what's wrong with onryos?
They bitches
Candles don’t affect room temps and have no effect on hantu
I've had 10 onryos so far, since I'm newer
hard to determine on 0 evidence
So how do you do Hantu test? Turn off gen?
Turn off breaker and you’ll see Hantu’s breath during hunts
If I don't die
Just smudge it and run, or loop it
I just go by it's speed.. it doesn't speed up in line of sight
Thats not how they work. Its based on room temp
Watching Insym has helped me determine ghosts and how to deal with them. I learned how to loop by watching him
I'm still figuring them out though
I’ve never watched an Insym video
A significant amount of my looping I learned from Owem
Steadily learnin 0 evidence from him too
Can someone please explain how to determine a mimic?
On 3 evidence you’ll have 4
It always has +1 evidence, orbs
You’ll have 1 (orbs)
What's the hardest ghost to figure out?
Depends on difficulty
Goryo, yurei on 0 evidence
I thought Yurei does double taps and slams doors
Most ghosts on 0 evidence friendly ghost 
Yes. Now put it on camp woodwind
Personally I’ve never registered the double door sound, I’ve only identified yurei from evidence, elimination or the one time it fully closed a wide open door behind me
DOTS only shows up on camera and if no one is in the room
That makes sense why itd be shitty to deal with
On 0 evidence it’s only real tell is that it can’t change rooms, a trait it shares with banshee
Is parabolic evidence?
So you can differentiate banshee from goryo
With no evidence
Using parabolic?
Neat
It’s still rng to get the banshee screech though
I'd test usually 3 to 7 times to get it
I’ve seen people get it immediately and I’ve seen people never get it after 20+ mins with the parabolic up all the time
I take time
I’ve only gotten it twice
I'm level 30, so I'm a fresh boi
You’re gonna start getting Deogen 
🤔 playing with others?
Yes
That’s why
I've done 5 solo
That is the highest level locked ghost
Change yer W to a T
Deo is the only locked ghost
Agreed
it was
Ikr? I have the tism and adhd
No need to apologize for that. 
Eh people make fun of it, but I make fun of myself the most lol
I have no enemies
But anyways, want to hear a funny story? One time there was a blood moon on point hope. The ghost room was the top floor, and it was a revenant
Blood moon on point nope is a no thank you
Cool, but scary 
I do have fond memories of that map from when I was working on the lighthouse keeper badge
Had a yokai that kept turning lights on every time I used the spirit box
With the media rework, I wonder how many kinds of interactions they've figured out
Can you see Goryo dots without a camera if u are outside the ghost room?
You used to occasionally see it due to a bug, pretty sure you’re supposed to use a camera
Its trait is that its dots is only visible on video camera
I am streaming my noob level gameplay
My twitch is my username here, I need assistance with hunting

can a ghost detect a firelight like it would an electronic device mid hunt
no
ghosts don't see light as far as i'm aware
you could be having a rave party in a hiding spot with multiple candles and glowsticks and they wouldn't notice
Fairly close to breaching 2500 hours in Phas, damn
but god help you if you tap your radio button or switch to an active electronic device for a split second
that would be wild
Guys how do I get my ghosts to hunt on professional?
I had an oni who didn't do a single ghost event
In 20 minutes
Get it down to the hunting threshold (changes per ghost), and wait for it to hunt, or used the cursed object
Is there always a cursed object
Standing in the dark drains sanity, ghost events when you touch the ghost
In all official difficulties except Insanity, yes
Oh ok
Could you help me on my stream so we don't have to talk here? If you have time of course. I don't care about follows, just advice
'fraid I'm a little busy
Kk that's fine
I randomly guessed and left because I had a bad feeling, and when I got back, it said it was a Hantu. Thank god I left
wait, if you're on professional, why not just wait for the evidence to role around-
You can find the cursed object locations on the maps on the Cheat Sheet
not trying to be insensitive, but professional is easy, no? especially alone since your sanity doesn't drain nearly as fast
Unless you’re up against a demon that can hunt any time, just stay in the light and take meds whenever you drop below like 70, you’ll be fine
Revenant detecting a firelight from a distance 😭
Get the evidence and then get out
When I pickup a tier 1 firelight, it extinguishes in my inventory. Does that count as 1 candle blowout for Onryo test?
the best way to do the onryo test is to physically place it down, or at least that is how i do it
If i manually self extinguish it in my hand, it doesnt count as 1 blowout right?
wdym? does it count as the onryo doing it?
because in that case no, it has to blow it out itself
^
sabotage the fool, what about fooling the saboteur
Occasionally, depends on the day.
So weird that i did the 3 blowouts by placing it down on top of a crucifix and it didnt hunt.
you're 100% sure its an onryo?
and not a mimic?
Yeah, i found out it was an onryo when it started a normal hunt at 60% sanity xD
how do you know its not a mimic?
Cause at the end of the game, it says Ghost type: Onryo.
Onryo works fine
oh right, yeah that means its an onryo for sure
Orrr it could be that the firelight went out by itself after 10 mins of nothing happening. Which is kinda crazy cuz I kept checking it wasnt changing room. 😮
it wasn't a T3?
Nope. Low lvl xD
Must the firelight be blown out in the ghost room to count as 1 blowout?
-trello
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.
every flame the Onryo blows out counts towards its continuous cycle of 3 per ability attempt. Ability is canceled if the ghost is under a smudge timer, setup time is still active, no one is in the map, or the ghost is already hunting.
Onryos also use flames as crucifixes, so what usually happens is players lose the count at some point, and what they think should be triggering the ability is actually the flame that is preventing the hunt attempt.
damn we are getting a door momentum update wtfffff
yeah so they like swing and stuff
Yurei gonna have a fun day with doors now
More for vr than PC / console
wdym by that
vr players will be able to push open doors and stuff
without grabbing it
Yup! They would be able to just stick their hand out and push the door like one would irl
thats kinda cool
Agree unless we hear that door click that means it closed so you would have to grab the handle
Yooooo so much stuff went to closed beta testing??
I want it to be so you do have to grab the handle that's closed but if it's still open a bit I would love to be able to just push it
I'm hyped
i don't think they will have to grab the handle cuz then they'd all die fumbling for it 😂
Listen I had the most awesome fight with a loop around the cathedral the ghost kept shutting the doors on me . Wish it was in VR that day!
vr players are gonna push doors with their butt and shit lmao
yeah if i played on vr id just headbutt them all open
I would love to see a little preview of it like it probably does still have to be the hands or something
I wonder if the twitch drops system is going to be used for the collaboration that was announced
i imagine it will be
If not like the weird hitboxes are going to close the doors to go nuts I know it
No idea I know they're integrating the system soonish that will be used for the cosmetics in the future
Trello has lots of cool sneak peeks in text form lol
The twitch drops just got moved to internal testing and the heart collaboration is just over a week away so i'm not sure that's enough time for them to test or not

Closed beta testing actually
Unless fully broken or scrapped.
can a banshee find you in a hiding spot if its tracking you ?
right. but hopefully that doesn't happen at this point
No. Only Deos know where you are at all times
how long do you guys think that media rework will take to release
I mean, the banshee can get you if it sees you going in the hiding spot
We have a saying here xan
I'm thinking end of June

i can never be patient
Stone question at what stage in the trello is the latest something can be scraped like for example if they are making a rework at what point do they decide to not scrap smth like if a rework was in closed beta testing could they still scrap it for whatever reasons?
But testing can go wrong
Can I play with anyone?
Completely understand it's rare but the t3 crucifix had a stop hunt ability that was scratched but the t3 item /crucifix wasn't. So if it was a map it would have to play like ASS and/or be broken
Fun fact, Lav got the idea from me to have it prevent cursed hunts 😄
Fun fact I still wanted the it to stop hunts lol I wanted to chant Latin and throw it at the ghost lol
okay so in a sense if something like a rework makes it to internal testing that would be the last stage they would scrap a rework because if a map makes it into closed beta that means the devs have deemed that it will release since it made it pass their testing and have decided that its not bad
If a map gets to closed testing and it doesn't work well, they'll knock it back
Doubtful it gets scratched entirely
okay
lmao
Yeah besides just qa, the public play testing could cause actual players to not enjoy the feel of the map, like counter strike. Lots of maps only a few ever out into official scoring matches lol
Most LIKELY would cause small Tweeks like layout changes at most
What’s South Park got to do with it?
Need coffee to program and test duh
Hi
…. Good point.
In your honest opinion, do you think it would be too OP to stop hunts?
Mostly would be QoL, it’s already super easy to hide/smudge etc
Not really.
That sounds more like a mimic thing lol
Or phantom by in game flavour lore.
Horror 2.0, the ghost teleports player corpses around like the mannequins
Don't think stopping a hunt is quality of life (unless you mean in the literal sense in that your character doesn't die), smudging and hiding can still result in death. Stopping a hunt removes risk entirely
Unless you were referring to something else, if so, apologies
Just had a Yurei that was moving at moroi speed, what on earth
Quality of life in saving time do you don’t have to wait for to stop stumbling around to leave. If you smudge and hide and still die you’ve done something very very wrong. The more you play the less threat a hunt is, it’s often not a threat at all, hence QoL not game breaking.
Hiii, which ghost can always change favourite room even if the gamemode is set to not changing fav room
technically any if you use a monkey paw, isn't it
Any if monkey paw; none if not lol
A ghost can still find you in a hiding spot, a ghost can finish the smudge timer by killing you. This is a gameplay mechanic, QoL tends to be something that improves a gaming experience without actually changing something, by that definition, a crucifix change isn't QoL.
Yeah but we have asked the Ouija Board two times and the board said at first garage, then we noticed freezing breath in the room between garage and hallway/kitchen at Tanglewood. When we asked the board the second time it said foye
The ouija board tells you where the ghost is, not the ghost room.
Board is current .. damn
it can absolutely roam outside of its room
🤷🏼♂️ Doubt it will be a thing, but people good at hunts rarely die if ever, hence QoL through time saved, I don’t see it being that broken, especially as it would obviously be a very limited use.
Waiting for the drunken uncle to stop smashing up the kitchen so you can leave in the van isn’t super exciting lol.
Ohhh, we did not know that. Thank you.
But is that the case when we ask the board “What’s your favourite room”
Yeah just says the current room.
They should maybe remove it as a question to remove that confusion XD
Not everyone is an expert at hunting. The only people it "saves time" for are players already entirely proficient at hunting, and even then the ghost can kill you just by walking into a hiding spot. There is risk with smudging, the risk is entirely reduced to zero with stopping a hunt. A good example of a QoL change is adding custom difficulty slots (still waiting for this), that's truly saving time.
Fr cause I am really damn confused right now. So if anyone working at Kinetic Games see this, PLEASE change it
It simply does not fall under the definition of quality of life...that's the point
I’d say it does lol
Expert players can go into the house and ID the ghost, why not just give you the ghost type without going in? Quality of life!
cheaters: "I am four parallel universes ahead of you"
if you want to stop a hunt just have "kills extend hunts" off and throw the noob at it
Nothing dishonest about it, a little exaggerated, but the point is that it's not quality of life in the typical definition.
I’m alone I have no noobs to throw ;~;
Force tarot cards -> Learn to rng manipulate so you always get high priestess -> let yourself get caught during a hunt to end it and revive
You lost me at tarot card
“Welp guess I don’t have a cursed object” that’s tarot cards lol
bro is sleeping on the most fun cursed object
Yes.
Fun if playing with friends maybe, productive? Almost never. They feel malicious in their counter productivity lol
tower is good, wheel of fortune doesn't matter if on 0 sanity, fool does nothing, devil is good, hermit is good, sun/moon do nothing on 0 sanity, high priestess is good. the only bad ones are death/hanged man
and that's a 10%/1% chance respectively
hell even death is good if you want to force a hunt to ID the ghost that way
Monster train 2, slay the spire 2, and enter the Gungeon 2 has been announced now as well. What’s in the water this year?
Agreed
I think a monkey paw wish to stop a hunt would be fun...and you have exactly 10 seconds or so before it starts another, cursed hunt
Need upcoming phasmo updates to be good and it’ll be a banger year for games.
Wish to leave technically stops a hunt lol
That doesn't stop a hunt, just unlocks doors during a hunt
Including the front door that you leave through and therefore can’t die?
Should let the ghost leave though and they terrorise the neighbourhood.
Sure, if you're right by it. Because otherwise your speed and vision are reduced for a few seconds so you can still die as a result
It's more accurate to say it lets you escape a hunt but not stop it
Weird they let a locked door stop them when those windows look very breakable.
There was a reason dk changed t3 cruci from stopping an active hunt to preventing a cursed hunt.
Actually stopping a hunt is op.
The monkey paw wish is nice cause it still means you can die before getting out the front door due to the refuced player speed
Cheese
Ok so it's not letting me attach the image but IDK if anyone saw this (someone probably has) but there's a world map in Brownstone High School that still has the USSR on it, meaning the school was abandoned before or shortly after 1991. The issue with this timeline is that also on the map, Zaire does not exist. Zaire was renamed to the Democratic Republic of the Congo in 1997. Just found the contradiction funny.
It’s a purchased asset off unity
Old under funded school is old and underfunded. Also, blessedale, we are both jn future, present, and past at once.
I’ve heard a lot of nerdy things in a community obsessed with small details, but that might take the cake XD
Time is a construct and the ghost manipulates the time we see in these locations
I just found the fact that the map is literally impossible to be funny, that's all
Willow street is my house
My geography sucks, it could be entirely back to front and I wouldn’t have noticed :,3
Like.. your irl house is the same layout? You live on a Willow Street? Or you’re always there?
cursed by moroi, sanity drained all the way whilst in the light (all lights on), teammate also cursed, sanity went down, perfect game. then boom! it was apparently a Yokai.....
What map?
Tanglewood
Waiting in foyer?
waiting in the back bedroom with lights on, then in the lounge a little, and the corridor as thats where the hiding spot was
teammate also used spirit box and got cursed, his sanity drained until he went to the van, then drained again when coming back in the house
I ended up at 0
but nope, yokai lol
So ghosts can sing during a hunt?
You didn’t use a monkey paw?
Yes
The fire extiguishers are from 1968-1979 ish.
no, that was the cursed object but we didnt touch it
I thought it was a singing ghost event. Especially since I was at like 98% sanity. But nope. Demon.
I’m annoyed.

Would explain it if someone used it, as for light coverage would need someone knowing weird mechanics about it lol
The bedroom you had the lights on in the bathroom and walk in closet too?
just the bedroom and the bathroom
most time was in the corridor, as waiting for a hunt, needed to escape ghost for quest
Need all 3 on I believe for full protection.
But that’s like the only thing I’ve heard about it recently so anything else idk :,3 lol
i was in the corridor with lights on everywhere, teammate in van reading my sanity as it dwindled down
very odd, just a glitch in the matrix I guess
nvm
=[
There’s likely some explanation for it, I just don’t know it XD
A hunt would have been the safer option.
Better luck with future :3
Or gobble a pill and see if the drain is the same.
whats the chance for uv in salt?
does the "I wish for anything" wish tag not show up in the journal?
100% if they have uv no hidden evidence and walk after standing in it
ik obake can hide it
Tracks steps for like 10 or 15 seconds after stepping in it
but I thought it was like 25% lol
one time I had a uv ghost step in all of my salt and didnt show any uv
For them not leaving a step, yes same %, but I believe they also don’t make a step sound
Hello everyone! I need help getting xp in phasmophobia, I'm not the best or worst player
They can, and often do, end their current walk stepping directly in the salt, not walking further, hence no steps to track.
Good thing they’re invisible cause they’re definitely grinning at me when they do that 🤦🏼♂️
WHY TF ARE MY GRAPHICS IN PHASMO SO ASS SUDDENLY
my pc can handle 500fps but my phasmo runs like max 60 it runs so ass bro tf is this
Have you checked your settings? If you have nvidia it might’ve changed your video settings
I cannot turn off the light switches on Brownstone High School so that’s fun
Like physically cannot
Never done the map
Turn of vsync
vsync is off
Your screen can’t show 500fps tho
The ghost of Vladimir Lenin came back to personally revive the USSR in this one specific location in the middle of nowhere, America
That alone didn’t make sense either lol
what is screen space illumination i turned it from high to low and now it seems way better
That’s a lighting setting, basically
Idk complaining about 60 fps is kinda wild, as a console gamer lol
When we get frame dips, it's like 20 fps
when my pc can handle 500 and its worth more than a console it makes sense that i complain when i see 60
Apparently it’s for simulating indirect lighting
idk what that means ngl
That on high is unneccessarily intensive tbh, you can get away with it on Medium and it looks good
Eye Adaptation has been breaking it for a lot of people
never really knew that it existed 😭
i know what eye adaption is but not screen space illumination
Coridors do this on large maps. They dont prevent sanity drain fully like normal rooms do
It’s what adds the lights that correctly reflects and bleeds out in surrounding area of the light.
Thanks discord
Like you can see the reflection under the flashlight under the wall of the tent.
ohhh alr ty
I thought it was you talking about lights and sanity before lol
Tbf. My hometown still has ussr on their globes until 2010ish
Why? Low funding
Fair
But I think their point was another country alongside ussr, not just ussr being on it.
It’s just that again, the map isn’t possible because the Soviet Union did not exist at the same time as the DRC, which I found funny
That school in game is also pretty rundown, clearly poor. Still had fire extiguishers from 70s and basketballs made from the 80s. Maps and globes just scrambled together and desks from the 50s
The map isn’t outdated, it’s impossible.
But also. Like. Time is funny
That’s why I joked about the ghost of Lenin coming back to manipulate time to reveal the USSR
Something cj touched on is things arent as they seem for us hunters. Look at the wallpaper in bleasedale.
Which means whoever made the asset originally either made it for an alternate reality, or didn’t cross check their references lol
Should see the corner of garage in tanglewood
Which corner
Or the lack of anything plugged in
Enter. Turn right. That corner
Well I mean there’s other reasons for that kind of thing lol
Nothings plugged in!!!
The lamps. The pcs. Nothing!!! No plugs anywhere
Yet they turn on spooooky
could someone let me know what this week challenge is and includes?
Check the pins
It’s in the pinned messages
thanks sorry never know where to find it 🙂
No worries
weewoo
Man I love being killed despite having my incense lit, its so much fun and such a good gameplay mechanic
desync moment
Y’all exited media rework is in closed beta testing
Yes
That means we can expect it in June/July I think
Don’t know really
If you drop a flashlight on the ground (contextually for a myling test), will the ghost roam to you likewise when holding the flashlight?
I also really enjoy being killed after the hunt is over
With the spirit box, is a response only classed if the dots are white? (4th updated box)
yes
ty, and freezing temp 0 or below?
below 1 degree Celsius for freezing
0.9 or below is freezing
For the collaboration, will we get a player id?
i think thats only for t2 and t3 right?
Does anyone know if the collab will bring a new player id?
If no one knows just say so
Did they say we are? So probably not. Or Just wait and see
anyone know the answer to this?
No
ghosts aside from raiju don't care about dropped electronics
Thanks
@flint gust its below 0 for tier 1 thermo and below 1 for t2 and t3. dont confuse
wait 0.9? that makes no sense in real life its 0 ??
They can only detect electronics you're holding
well in-game it's 0.9 or below, not sure what to tell you
Got it thanks
Frost warning is at 4.5 degrees.
ohh this makes a LOT more sense
Its actually only 1 cel for t2-3 thermo, for t1 thermo its 0 cel. just heard it from the other guy
Sure but t1 thermo is ass and it's a lot harder to tell betweeen 1 and 0 degrees on such a small scale so yeah 0 is an easier indicator
No, below 1, so yes 0.9
1 degree is the bottom temp all rooms go to for non freezing.
unless t1 thermo in which case its 0
the times when cold breath meant freezing..
Honestly in my experience, with T1 it’s not bad because you just toss it in a room for a bit and if it’s freezing, it’s very well below 0/32 - I find that way less frustrating than holding it and watching the meter closely.
Visual difference but it was because he said 1 not below 1, which is a vital difference.
the difference between "below 1" and "0" on the t1 is extremely tiny so its better to just say below 0
t1 so ass...
Does 1 count?
no
1.0 is the lowest it will go without being considered freezing
if its not a freezing ghost it will only go down to 1.0
ofc
And that’s why I specified below 1 in that earlier message lol
oh yeah didnt see it
I can chill with the t1 thermo.
Yeet it down, have a look later lol
i hate prestiging but i also hate wasting time over 100lvl
My only issue is not losing it with my ADHD ass ._.
it doesnt help tell the ghost room
if u already know the room then yeah its cool
The fall is pretty obvious
Takes basically same time as t2 refresh

WHERE YOU GOING!?
Other than Audio quality. phasmo with 5.1 surround sound is kinda disappointing.
It doesn't have spatial audio. Tested it with the radio person speaking and could hear him on all sides. Was expecting to hear him louder from behind.
Hide the glowsticks he’s escaping!
Ok. . .hiding them. 
OH GOD they’re multiplying

The worst zombie movie ever XD day of the glowstick eaters
I'm definitely the Glowstick zombie that's like the L4D Boomer. But instead of just exploding. I explode Glowstick juice
Sounds useful for Phasmo ngl
It’s been diff ones. Mostly orbs.
whar
He said he was getting 3 evidences in Nightmare.
Mimic!!!
Seems fine to me, nothing suspicious at all 
Hallucinations came early?
No, like for all ghosts
Idk what they messed up, but something clearly lol
🥃
I don't think it's a mimic, must be seeing stuff 
Maybe identifying snow as orbs lol
ITS THE BITCH FROM THE CONJURING!!
Those are.. different girls entirely though lol
tbh I've only seen The Ring out of those movies, and Lisa very much resembles her
I've only seen the conjuring
No way they have horror movie wars before GTA6
Like Freddy vs Jason didn’t already exist? :p
Valak vs ghostface
Freddy mercury 
T2 or T3 Incense?
Also does T3 have infinite uses?
Why does it specifically not have consumable then?
“I cannot see I am legally blind”
I use t1
Depends on your preference. T2 imo is better as the ghost still has movement giving you more distance when running away. T3 freezes the dumbass ghost in place but generally can be more dangerous in apoc 3 for example due to less distance gained.
That means you don’t need to buy a replacement each time.
Saves like 30 bucks or something
That seems counterintuitive. I guess if you run the opposite way from where it's moving you can gain a bit more distance, but seems like if it can't move at all you could theoretically gain more distance than if it happens to move in the same direction
theyre called consumable because you can eat them 
You beat me to it. It can work either way
Stay tf away from my glowsticks

Others grief in their own way, he’s in the van eating the glowsticks.
"where did our UV go"
me in the van crunching
They shake you and hold your open mouth up to doors and light switches.
T4 UV torch

T5 UV would be the sun itself 
Lights up every uv spot and the ghost
Yes.. but also no.. lol
Forget the sun, bring in the lighthouse lamp in!
T5 UV would just be D.O.T.S. UV edition
Let us burn the house down, we have fire.
T6 is another investigator just runs the evidence for you.
Wouldn't he crush them up
Thanks for replying
What were the other 2 evidence yu got
They listed some of the ghosts they ghost before
...the subreddit for this game is terrible I just realized. I saw Horror 2.0 got moved to concept and Chronicles is closed testing, big updates are finally setting in after the console stuff, yet people are.. being awful to the devs.
At least the Chronicles thread seems more positive. I'm actually excited for the update.
Humans.
The devs promised the big updates would be coming after console and now that we're getting progress as they said, it's somehow bad?? I don't get it.
I feel the same way. There are a lot of people in the world who just want something to complain about because they are unhappy in general.
-# Meaning I feel as you do.
Haters gonna hate. Taters gonna tate.
Humanity is very good at ruining the good.
Honestly I quit during console stuff because I knew it was gonna take a long time because they'd be completely focused on it working fine there considering how much they hyped it up.
I just played other games and kept Phas on my radar. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Anyone tryna play phasmophobia, nae, english only, ps5 only, text me and lmk
I am only level 10 tho
Phasmophobis.
That’s amusing me more than it should but I’m very sleepy XD
Oh okay
Silly little demon wanted to hunt twice, when i was at over 90% sanity
Cheeky girl
Good thing the crucifix has 50% larger radius lmao
Clever girl….
Oh right I had a question concerning the Ouija Board.
I know you can ask "Where are you?" and it tells you where the ghost is currently, but I was wondering if "What is your favorite room?" actually gives the ghost room? Unless they removed that question.
No
Super weird, this was brought up earlier lol
They should remove it because it doesn’t and leads to confusion.
What... Why is that question even a thing then? 😭 Oversight?
I’m not entirely sure, is silly tho
abilities used: 0
erm what the sigma was the 2 bites in my crucifix then eh, when i was 85% and 92% sanity?
Angry bugged yokai
A shade making radical life changes.
Is this the Krusty Krab?
no this is patrick
🤑 MONEY
The mimic almost got me…
I was taking my salt pics and just so happened to have the UV stick there. I thought I had an Onryo and just needed my last pics. Luckily the ghost stepped in the salt and left footprints…
Does something becoming a weekly challenge make it less likely to happen? I use to get UV footprints all the time but I haven't a single time since getting photos of it became a challenge this week
I need to know what update to get most excited for...which one fixes the godawful voice chat system?
Might just be you, I had 0 issues
I don’t remember if there was anything on the trello for that. They updated to a new system last year.
-trello
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.
Isn't just me. Voice comms can randomly cut out entirely mid-game, and can also be completely broken in lobbies as well
Whatever new system they're using is awful
ive had it happen in the lobby
It might be performance update but nothing really mentions updates to the system
holy guacamole i havent seen yall in a while
OMG NICOTINE!
MINNY!!
WHERE HAVE YU BEENNN?
UIMMM I JS FINISHED SOPHOMORE YEAR OF HS SO IG LOCKING IN LOL
MY BIRTHDAY IS ON MONDAYYY
WELL DONEEEE, ME BOUTTA HEAD TO SCHOOL. I DUNNO IF YU CAN STAY UP TO PLAY AFTER ME GET HOMEE
OMGOMG MINE IS ON TUESDAY TOOOO!
nooo i cant im sorryyyyyy!!! my bday party is tmr i cant get on :<<
wsg topo
Gonna be a junior soon 
ya mememememe
Due to timezones, we might celebrating our birthday AT THE SAME TIMEE!
YAYAYAYAYAY
Also its okieeeee!
omg my mom planned a cruise for my bday mon-fri !! i wont be on for a while as im gonna put my phone down for once and be with family lol
i notice that some people use the teir 1 thermo instead of the others, is the meta there
It’s all preference
Yuh
why would anyone wanna use that shit
Enjoy your family tripp nicotineee 
T1 thermo used to be meta
my assumption, you can sit doing something without having to have the thermo in your hand
Same goes for t2 and t3 where you can pick up and check later
thts true, i js think if u wanna ifnd the room with thermo its a bit annoying
wow. voice chat actually cut out in the middle of someone talking. thats new
cut out as like their mic js cut out? idk if thats a game issue..
oh it is. this game's voice system loves to just stop working. now i can't hear anything he says and he can't hear me at all. we effectively cannot communicate for the rest of this hunt
er, contract
block each other several times and leave them unblocked after
see if that fixes it. idk, i never use game vc, i use discord for this exact reason
That was one of the first fixes I tried when the issue started...no luck
thats unfortunate
There has also been zero acknowledgement of the issue from devs which is even more discouraging
I’d toss it in #bug-reports to help give them more info
I did...about a month or so ago
now thats um insane
The best I can tell is the voice chat service just outright dies in some scenarios and there's no way for the player to manually "reset" it, aside from ending the contract, going back to the lobby, then starting another contract
do we have any release dates for the content, or is it just a roadmap. on what to expect
we have no release dates yet, just a roadmap and what stage of development the updates are in
i mean dont we have a new map and shit coming in 2026
just looked at the roadmap, nothing is showing up as release dates
Mega what are you playing on console or pc
can you explain why i translated your name, didnt know what it was, looked it up and got led to a literal nsfw site
help
its fine, i just wanted to make sure.
i dont wnat a snailgame/wild card cafuffle with their content release
lmao
PC but I've spoken to console players and it happened to them too
lol
There’s no release dates for anything, they just move stuff when they are in that phase
is that even allowed bru
yurr
why cant we just have smth nice for once
lol
bean bickles bickle blipper
are you a mute vtuber
here's to hoping they somehow get a 13 ghosts crossover or something in a mirror hour map
i think that would be cool
but it probably wont happen
Did you check #common-tech-fixes
nervous
why...
Yes. I've checked all those which is why I said it's a problem not acknowledged by the devs - I see no official communication on either how to fix or even saying its an issue
poops pants
If there's any method or source for troubleshooting this - I've already tried it
so you consider... nervous as roleplaying...
sniffs hard
ahhh.. nice
Did you restart the application
i hate it here
Turn off then back on
i consider any "action", "emotion", etc put inbetween astrisks as "roleplaying" and it makes me extremely uncomfortable
it fixes when a new contract is started
Best solution to a lot of things
I've validated game files, muted/unmuted players, changed audio settings, restarted the game, always happens
im use to servers that dont allow emojis
so its not really roleplaying
just boost the server


and since im mute, i like to express myself
and not through text like boring people
Just had the best squad ever
Go to general chat with the non sense yall speak of
wait can you try smth for me i wanna see if this will fix can u hop in discord vc
We had the funny mute guy, the scared guy, me (the hype guy), and the solo god who rages
Best team ever
I'm in the middle of some games right now but if you write out the steps I can try them later and let you know
@sonic blaze I hate mimics
can i dm u ?
yeah
you saying that reminds me of the memes with the fat guy
why did you want to know if im mute
I've never had a mimic so I guess I can't hate too much
why are yall weird
That’s not necessary.
Mezzo
I get 10 onryos in a row and 3 phantoms as well
wait whatd i say
Hi
sybau
cuz i looked up ur username not knowing what it was and ur twitter popped up "mute Vtuber"
Wrong channel
