[twin portal]

is anyone experiencing severe lag only on the new grafton?

[magic tiger]

My guess is 100% an assumption. I haven't test it yet. But if it's not like that then it'd be hard to loop that table otherwise.

[torn pawn]

Had a ghost hunt me at 70% sanity so im like "demon" it was a mimic
Very next game I had the front door shut in my face outside of a hunt so im like "yurei"....it was a mimic

😭

[shrewd vigil]

That's how they get you 😭

[vast igloo]

Always a Mimic until it isn't

[torn pawn]

💯

[magic tiger]

Il mimo. biggest out there

[torn pawn]

Twice in a row is crazy

[torn pawn]

💯

[thorn spruce]

Ghost hunted me in first 10sec of entering the house. Thought it was a demon. But just realised i forgot to change those cww 0 evi 0 sanity settings.

[vast igloo]

Do we know when they'll open up the feedback channels for this update?

[solemn stream]

they probably won't, they don't open feedback channels for every update. i've actually never seen them open one

[vast igloo]

I remember them doing it for Sunny Meadows at least, I figured they'd do it for major updates like named updates and map reworks at least

[odd loom]

There was a bug i think they fixed the other day the bone spawned in an unreachable spot 😅 i was like bruh

[solemn stream]

yeah they fixed that with chronicle

[odd loom]

Yo who's hyped for diner map? I know i am 🥳

[thorn spruce]

Its prolly still far away..

[solemn stream]

i hope we get it before christmas

[odd loom]

Idk i mean they said later this year Halloween would be a cool time to get a new map

[odd loom]

I dont think they would release it in December I could be wrong though 🤷‍♂️

[random stratus]

i can't wait to be locked in the freezer with a hantu 🤩

(im very excited i don't remember the last time we got a new map)

[odd loom]

😆

[wide rock]

Is there any snippets of this map yet?

[echo musk]

-trello
doesn't appear to be.

[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.

[hallow vault]

can anyone help i want to delete a video but i click the trashcan and then i see a sort off red ✅ and i click it nothing happens

[prisma laurel]

Did u click the check mark?

[solemn stream]

has the rest of your team clicked their check marks???

[hallow vault]

oh no imma check

[hollow hinge]

Hi does someone here knows what it says on those Papers in the new farmhouse at the libary by the typing Maschine? we tried to make a good picture with Vr you can see there is a story on there but its so blurry we cannot read it

maybe there is some ppl here who know i would like to know what it says

[silk timber]

Yeah everyone has to click it

[solemn stream]

not everyone, just a majority

[eager bronze]

Hi Kinetic Games,

First off—huge fan of Phasmophobia! My friends and I have spent countless hours in the game, but every now and then, we find ourselves wishing for something to shake things up. That got me thinking… what if Phas had a mode that felt like being on an actual ghost-hunting show?

Introducing my idea: “Locked-In” Mode.
• 4 players, trapped inside a map overnight (15–20 minutes, adjustable).
• The entire map is the ghost room—no safe zones.
• The mission isn’t to identify the ghost, but to gather as much media and evidence as possible to “prove” ghosts are real.
• Hunts still happen, and you’ll still have to hide or outsmart the ghost to survive.

Here’s the twist: at the start, there’s a grace period for gathering items from the van and setting up in the location. This can end early at any time when the entire team is inside and closes the front door. From there, a timer appears on screen, the front door locks, and there’s no going in or out until time is up.

Teams could also set up a gear room inside the map to store equipment, monitor cameras, and regroup between scares.

Think of it like Phas meets Ghost Adventures—intense, suspenseful, and unpredictable. It would be a perfect way to add high-stakes variety while keeping that core Phasmophobia fear factor.

I think this could bring a fresh rush of adrenaline for both veteran players and newcomers. It’s risky, it’s tense, and it could make for some incredible content for streamers and YouTubers.

Thanks for considering the idea—and for making such a great game.

Best,
Christian

[hallow vault]

thank u!

[prisma laurel]

Devs aren't taking any suggestions

[solemn stream]

First off: wall texts are against the rules. second off: KG isn't taking suggestions at this time

[prisma laurel]

[silk timber]

That's lowkey a neat idea tho

[eager bronze]

Well you know never hurts to suggest just be kinda you all

[prisma laurel]

Well bunch of people had some good suggestions

[silk timber]

Nah but mines better

[eager bronze]

That’s lit I think it’s very healthy for a community to share so games don’t go stale that’s the whole point of growing a community is it not ?

[prisma laurel]

I forgor

[silk timber]

It's okay I forgive you

[errant stirrup]

dhl ai customer service reference?

[prisma laurel]

I know but devs are working on something on a bunch some stuff like as the grafton rework that came out 2 days ago, there mainly doing stuff they are focusing on

[solemn stream]

headcannons can be stuck in fan-creations if you want, but KG will not be implementing your ideas as they have a clear vision for the future of the game

[sly cypress]

has the console multiplayer bug been fixed?

[snow island]

Is anyone else having trouble with the ouija board?

[leaden ivy]

To both questions above: you'll need to be way more specific

[sly cypress]

single player is fine

When a console user plays multiplayer, the game constantly breaks and shuts down

[leaden ivy]

That's very vague still. Does it happen after a certain action? A certain map? Do you know if it's all consoles or just one?

[sly cypress]

its been reported since the grafton update over 20+ times that i've seen

some cases, their console is told. its overheating, and shuts down.. when the console isnt

or they get dashboarded, and the game closes

[dusky prism]

Is the attic on the new map bugged or is it just me

[zinc coyote]

Bugged how

[leaden ivy]

If it wasn't mentioned in today's patch notes it probably isn't fixed yet

[dusky prism]

I played with random people and the ghost didn't interact with the book or show dots

[sly cypress]

rip console

[dusky prism]

It only did on the stairs case leading up

[leaden ivy]

that just sounds like rng

or the ghost moved to the stairs

[dusky prism]

And same with temps

[random stratus]

stupid question, but someone said that yureis can't touch doors, only close them entirely, this isn't true is it?

[leaden ivy]

it sounds like the ghost wasn't in the attic lol

[zinc coyote]

its true

[dusky prism]

I'm pretty sure the staircase and attic count as 1

[random stratus]

im sorry what? so if it taps a door its not a yurei?

[zinc coyote]

doesnt apply to closets or lockers tho

[leaden ivy]

if the temps vary then no

[sly cypress]

Yurei's are applied to Wide open doors, not semi open

and it closes it silently, not slamming like it did previously

[dusky prism]

They dont

[zinc coyote]

correct

[prisma laurel]

Average moment where orbs don't show in the attic but in the entry of the attic

[random stratus]

400 hours and i just learned this, wadefuk

[dusky prism]

But they never went below 0 outside of the stairs

[leaden ivy]

you said not even a moment ago that the same thing happened with temps

[knotty hollow]

anyone else having issues with recording video from the van?

[dusky prism]

Ion know what to tell you

Maybe it wasn't temps

[zinc coyote]

Its recent, with the chronicles update iirc

[dusky prism]

But everything else seemed bugged

[random stratus]

THAT'S why i didn't always know it

i was gonna say, that has not always been a thing, because i might not be the best player, but i know for a FACT that I've seen a yurei tapping doors

[zinc coyote]

Though I have noticed yureis will leave like a inch or two gap sometimes. happened to me on sunny once

[leaden ivy]

I wonder how yureis will interact with the new door physics update

[zinc coyote]

But its always a full close/ open. When they do the slam animation, youll see it slam but you wont hear the new slam sound

[random stratus]

funnely enough, the ghost that has fucked me over the most recently is none other than the oni, like you'd think I'd have it noted by now

but i keep forgetting to look for it

which is weird because with phantoms i clock it IMMEDIATELY, hands down the easiest ghost for me to spot during a hunt

or well... not spot during a hunt, which is why its easy to spot, but you get what i mean

but the oni... eh... not as easy for me

[wise oyster]

same, Oni you have to have look for. Phantom is obvious

[zinc coyote]

Revs are probably the easiest to spot during a hunt for me, well sound wise at least

[random stratus]

yeah, and also, me personally, phantoms are on the list of ghosts I'd never even ATTEMPT to loop

[zinc coyote]

Imagine the rev had phantom blinks..

[random stratus]

depends, if its 0ev, and its early on, I'd say the Thaye is easiest

[zinc coyote]

Fair

[prisma laurel]

"I took a phantom photo of a revenant!"

[random stratus]

this is nightmare fuel

[zinc coyote]

[zinc coyote]

feddy in phasmo when

[leaden ivy]

soon, a diner is already the next map

[random stratus]

@zinc coyotei remember this one game i played recently, idk when, but it was a Jinn right, and i stood there staring at it, as it sped towards me

[zinc coyote]

But no feddy

[random stratus]

and i have to tell you, the spine chill i got was... it was quite something

[leaden ivy]

the real feddy was the friends we made along the way

[random stratus]

because im so used to running when i see the ghost

[modern mauve]

Unplayable

[kindred tangle]

i want to do apoc 3 but at the same time i don't because i know ill just die every game and get tired of doing it

[random stratus]

it was like i was overriding the urge to run

[leaden ivy]

reroll for deogen

[zinc coyote]

Reminds me of when I first played vr phas

[kindred tangle]

the chances of that can take all night though

[bronze halo]

i haven’t even started the apocs but i just know i will constantly die

[zinc coyote]

Just dont die

[leaden ivy]

It's a 1/24 chance every game. That is not bad at all

[kindred tangle]

i did apoc 3 last night, had the ghost type and everything but the ghost came running all the way from deep left hallway and got me in entryway moving equipment 🙁

[prisma laurel]

Missing a deogen blink photo or missing a oni blink photo

[slow spade]

im resetting or a 1/546,000 game, you'll live with a 1/24 😭

[kindred tangle]

why 546,000

[prisma laurel]

Chat am I the best phasmophobia player?

[kindred tangle]

yes

[slow spade]

Bloodmoon, obake, with firelight, cleanse repel objective for maximum payout of $14621

[cedar shoal]

That’s just dumb

[zinc coyote]

Only if youve done the training

[slow spade]

reset 9000 times today

[kindred tangle]

just to say you've done it?

[cedar shoal]

Whyyy?

[slow spade]

nobody else is sane enough to do it

[kindred tangle]

well if you're that good you could help me with apoc

[serene badge]

mmm yup noticing a lot of bugs (could just be on my part)

[slow spade]

im away to bed 😭

[leaden ivy]

apoc has to be done solo

[kindred tangle]

meaning in a vc

[mossy mason]

dear god

[lime holly]

i can help u with apoc

[serene badge]

i can

[kindred tangle]

[slow spade]

9000 resets has its toll on a body 😔

[kindred tangle]

really?

[lime holly]

yee

[kindred tangle]

wow i never knew if i just asked i'd get help

[serene badge]

lol don't get used to it

[lime holly]

"ask and u shall receive"

[serene badge]

we stingy here

[lime holly]

(sometimes)

[serene badge]

jk

[kindred tangle]

only one problem though, i'm on xbox and my screenshare is usually so pixelated so i'm not sure if it'd even work

[serene badge]

oof

I'm having bug issues

[kindred tangle]

i haven't tried using the nitro settings yet though

the higher quality

[serene badge]

idk if anyone else sharing these issues

so far badge issues

[gloomy salmon]

Try playing but crashes 5 minutes in game anyone else having that problem

[lime holly]

gl bro. hope u get it. I could never have the sanity to reset for smth that is 1/546,000 chance lol

[slow spade]

<3

[prisma laurel]

Goryo or Mare

[bronze halo]

i don’t think i have any issues, but haven’t been on phasmo since like a couple hours ago

[lime holly]

to put it in perspective

ur more likely to be struck by lightning than get that game

[kindred tangle]

i joined a channel and started a screenshare to see if it'd work

[cedar shoal]

Can’t believe your actually doing this 🤣

[slow spade]

neither, I've had the objectives around 18 times so far and gotten a bit lucky with 1 of them on bloodmoon, ghost sadly was a deo

[random stratus]

raiju

[cedar shoal]

Well good luck

[slow spade]

tyyyy, il need it

[random stratus]

you're XX, you'll be fiiiine

[slow spade]

._.

[muted oracle]

Is the new twitch watch thing open to earn?

[vestal ferry]

Yes. Has been

Just need to be in a stream doing phasmo with drops enabled

[muted oracle]

bet, just wanted to double check

[topaz hull]

Does anyone know if its planned to give more capabilities to players as ghosts on coop? Like being seen on dots, using light switches or anything of the sorts?

[tawny fiber]

does campfire slow down hantu?

[vestal ferry]

Well those were removed... so... no

You used to. Devs said "no. Youre dead"

[muted oracle]

I think it would be funny to have a game mode where dead players are the ghosts

[topaz hull]

Agree

[vestal ferry]

And devs wont do that either

[mellow galleon]

that moment when you get someone having a go at you cuz you used a cursed object without realising what it does which kills a teammate and then hide in the corner of the truck because you genuinely feel bullied...

[cedar shoal]

Ehhh

[vestal ferry]

Devs have been clear if you wanna play as a ghost go play another game

[cedar shoal]

Then it’s pvp

[muted oracle]

I like throwing things at my teammates when I'm dead

[cedar shoal]

You can already do that

[muted oracle]

ik its just fun

[vestal ferry]

We already get to do so much when dead cause well. We arent just spectators.

[mellow galleon]

what's even richer is that I instantly got blamed for their game crashing cuz the glitch on Xbox with the cameras hasn't been patched properly, and I left the game due to being attacked so much

[leaden ivy]

That's just karma

[mellow galleon]

fr

[high vector]

good friends you have!

[topaz hull]

Could be somethibg not so straight forward, like just letting ghosts help in some way so they dont just sit there and do nothing for the rest of the game, like being heard if the team mates have a spirit box on for instance

[high vector]

that would be cool!

[leaden ivy]

the dead can already make a polty bomb pile and look at ghost speed safely

[vestal ferry]

Been recommended a lot. DK answered that directly in an interview. Not happening basically

[topaz hull]

Thats a shame

[mellow galleon]

Well I met them yesterday and didn't form any meaningful bond with em. Had multiple red flags from them today and then allat plus getting attacked in their server plus dms too.

[high vector]

welp let us imagine it then haha

[vestal ferry]

cant make it too powerful to be dead. Dont want people running games where someone just dies and can figure out ghost without actual risk

[mellow galleon]

so yeah. More reasons why I don't make friends 🤣

[high vector]

thats horrible!

[topaz hull]

Fair enough

Being seen on dots wouldnt hurt no one tho

[mellow galleon]

shes 28 playing with a 15yr old. It was expected

[cedar shoal]

Ditch them, no point hanging out with them

[leaden ivy]

unless you trick the players still alive that they saw dots evidence when they didn't

[high vector]

yeah thats just like a little fun easter egg

[vestal ferry]

Can you imagine the bug reports of "saw ghost on dots!!! Not dots ghost!!!!"
Or the spirit box being same way

[mellow galleon]

blocked me already after treating me like trash lol

[topaz hull]

True, alright never mind

[cedar shoal]

Awesome

[topaz hull]

I rest my case

[mellow galleon]

they are also in this server but never spoke a word.

[vestal ferry]

Its still neat we can keep doing stuff. Cause other games you just become a spectator

[high vector]

yeah totally!

[mellow galleon]

the version of this I played would put you a spectator in cams. And the cam angles sucked

[topaz hull]

Last question before I go back into the shadow realm, lobby customization yes or no?

[cedar shoal]

Maybe?

Probably not

[topaz hull]

They've put lots of work on the lobby we have rn so yeah probably not

[high vector]

would be cool tho

[cedar shoal]

There will be player customisation though

[topaz hull]

Just like wall paper maybe or little details

[high vector]

yeah!!

[topaz hull]

Waiting on it, sounds really good

[cedar shoal]

Yes, new models new animations things you can add on your character etc

[mortal pelican]

doubt it. The current models being used are unity slop assets, not custom made ones

[smoky current]

Looking for a female group

[topaz hull]

Being able to unlock the decorations of an event would also be cool, like for example finishing the halloween challenge lets you keep that lobby style if tou wanna keep it on or smt

[cedar shoal]

That’s just not true

Check the trello for proof

[topaz hull]

Its already on the roadmap

[high vector]

thats a great idea!!

[mortal pelican]

and they have a history of sticking to the roadmap as we all know

[harsh wharf]

guys what is a good custom mode for xp?

[topaz hull]

15x sunny meadows :D

[leaden ivy]

did you not see the grafton devblog that had a teaser for the customization update

[cedar shoal]

They are doing better this year since console is not ruining us anymore

[topaz hull]

Jokes aside, ill check and send you mine later

[high vector]

well have a little hope hahha

[harsh wharf]

I unironically got 12000 xp from doing that lol

[leaden ivy]

the highest multiplier you can do successfully and consistently

[mortal pelican]

idk man. I bought the game years ago and they still havent delivered on their promises

[topaz hull]

Just out of curiosity, what did they not deliver?

[mortal pelican]

1 sec i have a google doc for this

[leaden ivy]

if only there was something to warn you that the game was still being developed...something for the EARLY adopters to remember when they ACCESS the game

[topaz hull]

If only....

[solemn stream]

if it's long don't post it in chat, there's a rule against wall text

[topaz hull]

Yeah doesnt ring a bell

[mortal pelican]

bruh

[cedar shoal]

The longer we wait for a update the better it will be

[harsh wharf]

right now it's x5.00 with 2 evidence

[solemn stream]

you can dm it to the person or summarise it

[humble marsh]

I found a glitch/bug and I was wondering if there is anywhere I can report it or should I just show it here?

[leaden ivy]

#bug-reports

[humble marsh]

Thank you

[topaz hull]

Will the player model update finally fix how we hold the lantern? Please and thank you

[harsh wharf]

how often do they update the game?

[cedar shoal]

Yes

[leaden ivy]

You can go on steam and view the news posts for previous updates

[topaz hull]

Big updates usually a couple times a year, a lot of small fixes all the time tho

[cedar shoal]

A lot quicker this year we just got Grafton and 2 months ago we had the chronicle update

And blesdale about 2 months before chronicle, maybe 3 months

I’m so glad the game is updating again compared to last year

[slow spade]

last year was horrible in terms of content updates

[cedar shoal]

Thanks console!

[slow spade]

I'm really just finding with every update that comes out there are a bunch of small issues that keep building and building. Crimson eye making player movement update at a fixed 60hz is the most annoying one

[wise oyster]

For me, it's how much more important inventory management has become while the system for it has always been pretty crappy

and the annoyances like fast ghost events are now a much bigger "feels bad" moment

[cedar shoal]

I’m glad I’m not the only one that thinks that, I have also noticed that the game gets buggier and buggier with each patch, why can’t the devs fix the game 😭

[slow spade]

this is also starting to become a really annoying issue

I feel just focusing on a single QoL update wouldn't be the worst idea.

I already like this new more major updates thing. but if it keeps adding more and more bugs I'm not sure I'm the greatest fan

[slow spade]

a small ui along with some other keybinds would go such a long way

[wise oyster]

yeah, and I also understand why things like my ghost event complaint will probably addressed, I'd still like to see more movement on the systems that supposedly done. One of these last updates could've included adjustments to recording times, or a fix for the mist form photo/video

[wise oyster]

I get keeping it mininimalist, but for the life of me I can't tell why they're so allergic to HUDs

I guess technically there's one for Toggle mode

[lime token]

A broader variety of photos would be nice as well

[slow spade]

yupppp, bringing back salt photos

[cedar shoal]

I can understand that, we just need 1 2 3 and 4 (if your using a lighter) this is the least they could do

[lime token]

The salt particles would be perfect

[wise oyster]

I should be able to swap items as fast as I can tap Q, at the least

[lime token]

Q for swap seems wrong

[slow spade]

I have no idea why scroll wheel has delay 😭

[wise oyster]

or whatever key you use

[slow spade]

q is peak

[cedar shoal]

I don’t know whyyy that’s so weird

[wise oyster]

this is also a big one.

[slow spade]

I could easily compile a complete document of every small issue

nvm scratch easily 😭

[wise oyster]

every game now includes many additional instant reaction moments. The existing mechnics no longer support it.

[lime token]

What about the phas mml

[slow spade]

bruh

it's obv rn

megapoc pre chronicle is hardest challenge rn

once I'm done with max payout game then idek bro

that shit just seems dumb

[lime token]

You should name the highest payout game "ultimatum" for absolutely no reason at all

[slow spade]

ts is not the fnaf mml

it's not even that hard of a challenge it's literally just a fucking lottery if you get the game that could be it

[solar abyss]

Where does one report a bug for game?

[cedar shoal]

#bug-reports

[odd vale]

Check out #known-issues to see if it’s been reported and if not you can head to #bug-reports

[solar abyss]

It’s a new issue on grafton

[mellow galleon]

What is it?

[hybrid nexus]

Bro i have stream on but in twitch it says offline
Can anyone help

its on stream lab

[leaden ivy]

this is not a twitch support server

[mellow galleon]

No cuz this isn't stream chat

[fickle meteor]

ask obs 😭

[solar abyss]

When using video camera the wall in the living room when u walk in turns bright white and blinds you then turns multicolor. @mellow galleon

[hybrid nexus]

Then what do I use

[mellow galleon]

pffft

[fickle meteor]

twitch discord

[mellow galleon]

I know that the Grafton glitch on xbox wasn't fixed

[leaden ivy]

reddit? a discord for streaming help? Literally anywhere marketed as "come here for help with streaming"?

[fickle meteor]

😭

[storm thunder]

What's the Grafton issue?

[lucid storm]

Has anyone else noticed you only seem to get paranormal talking for the sound recording on Grafton now? I'm constantly getting dupes and its only talking

[hybrid nexus]

huh

[storm thunder]

I just correctly got the ghost on Grafton and it's not counting towards the challenge

[fickle meteor]

is bro trolling

[stoic zealot]

It takes another round to update

[leaden ivy]

the challenge tracker is one game behind your actual progress

[storm thunder]

Oh. Okay. Didn't realize..thanks

[stoic zealot]

No worries, happy hunting!

[storm sail]

Just thought I'd throw this out there, but one of my friends is suffering in the vr version of the game. The update for Grafton rework fucked up the visuals for VR. He's now getting headaches even trying to play the game. And yes he confirmed it was phasmophobia not his headset by playing a different game and it worked just fine. Can't do bug report as I'm not familiar with vrs. I just know it's some form PlayStation VR

[strong granite]

is spirit guaranteed spirit box now ? just had a spirit answer every time with the lights on

[wise oyster]

what room/light?

as for consistent responses, that's fairly normal for T3, luckier for lower ones

[strong granite]

grafton foyer with the broken light on, 2 head lamps and a fire light

[wise oyster]

player gear doesn't count, btw

I know that light doesn't fully stop sanity drain. That's interesting

[warm swan]

Is anyone else having a texture issue on grafton in the dinning room

[strong granite]

i thought all light sources stopped spirit box unless guaranteed, good to know headlamp doesnt, thank you

[wise oyster]

yeah flashlights/firelights don't count either

[last anchor]

Does shadow ghost count for apoc challenge????

[wise oyster]

it should

[prisma laurel]

Yeah it does, got mines with a wraith

[last anchor]

Alr thx

[silk rune]

Any one wanna play phas

[solar abyss]

If they need video proof am I able to send it to them or they ask for it on my bug report?

[brazen coral]

As long as it is a physical photo of the ghost and not a recording or DOTs(I think for this one?)

[prisma laurel]

What's that?

[hexed shuttle]

Does summoning circle no longer show ghost if you have T3 cruci down for ghost photo or is this a glitch?

[stoic zealot]

Uh if you light the last candle and hit 0% sanity it won't do the event and will just instantly hunt on top of the circle and burn cruci. Also kinda applies if the ghost is mid hunt and the last candle is lit, it will teleport to the circle and continue the hunt from there

Hope this helps! 🙏 anymore questions feel free to ask here, happy hunting!!!

[severe sonnet]

Question, can you take a photo of the thermometer for a freezing temps photo?

[stoic zealot]

You can... but it is very unreliable and will fail more often then not. I recommend trying to find other ways such as; ghost photos, emf, writing, bone, cursed object

[severe sonnet]

I was figuring as much

[modern mauve]

You can, but make sure the thermo is visibly showing freezing

[stoic zealot]

Yeah... unfortunate. Hopefully they fix it soon. Happy hunting!!

[severe sonnet]

Probably a bug but I accidentally took a pic of the breath not long ago and it counted as freezing temps, even though it wasn’t one of the evidences

[cedar shoal]

I don’t know man this game is broken

[mossy mason]

i find freezing to be a pretty reliable photo
i have only had one instance of the photo failing to register

[polar notch]

Yes. Came here to report this. It's on the big China cabinet thing.

[severe sonnet]

I’ve encountered very little bugs

[storm badge]

can someone report a bug for me

i dont wanna lol

[severe sonnet]

Just put it in bugs

[cedar shoal]

Why not?

[severe sonnet]

Nothing gets fixed if it’s not reported

[cedar shoal]

There are too many

[sly cypress]

if they contact the person over the concern. the bug reporting would be pointless

[storm badge]

it keeps saying error.

[cedar shoal]

Nothing gets fixed even when it does get reported

[leaden ivy]

At this point KG needs to advertise the voice system randomly stopping during games as a feature

[storm badge]

anyways the default guess is a spirit. When the ghost is a spirit it says incorrect ghost type. -Only if you haven't circled anything else

[severe sonnet]

Have to disagree there

[leaden ivy]

started with the chronicle update. I reported it shortly after launch

[storm badge]

ok good

[storm badge]

i had 3 spirits in a row and i was like whaaaaaaat!?!?!?

[severe sonnet]

I haven’t encountered a spirit in a minute

[leaden ivy]

It can cause people to not get rewarded properly which is very annoying to the player experience, so naturally this bug is likely super low priority on their list

[cedar shoal]

It’s not even a bug anymore it’s a feature that stays in the game for the rest of time

[storm badge]

why tho, spirit is literally circled and it says its a spirit. And i get no moneys 🙁

[cedar shoal]

That’s sarcasm

[leaden ivy]

My theory is they got tired of me cheesing the weekly challenge by entering and leaving maps repeatedly until I got three spirits and won without doing anything

[severe sonnet]

I can see that

[leaden ivy]

I am now forced to open the journal and click an extra time every game

[storm badge]

same here lol

[cedar shoal]

No way

[storm badge]

Im guessing mare everytime now, in 0 evidence

[solemn stream]

i never have this issue as i cross out ghosts

[severe sonnet]

Same

[cedar shoal]

It’s a shame this game has to be full of bugs, I’ve had a lot is voice chat that randomly stops working

[leaden ivy]

I'd be more forgiving if we actually got communication that they are aware of issues like these

[storm badge]

Yeah, if i dont know what it is, i dont even touch the journal. So automatically guess the spirit

[leaden ivy]

but in the meantime I will absolutely keep throwing shade about it

[severe sonnet]

And that’s exactly why they stopped informing the r/phasmophobia

[cedar shoal]

Ever since they released that new voice chat system it’s had issues

[severe sonnet]

There is a difference between constructive criticism and voicing concern and also throwing shade

[storm badge]

Im making a resume today, parents are kicking me out of the house soon 😭 got any advice?

[sly cypress]

don't do drugs

[leaden ivy]

Sure, but when constructive criticism and reporting issues through official channels no longer works, there's not much else we can do

[storm badge]

do i lie on my resume?

[cedar shoal]

No

[severe sonnet]

They can’t address everyone, that’s a fact.

If they address one issue someone will complain right back and say they don’t care about theirs

It’s a lose lose situation. I don’t blame them either for ignoring fools on reddit

[leaden ivy]

don't lie, exaggerate instead. you didn't "help a little old lady cross the street" you "assisted with and organized a team effort to accomplish goals to boost productivity and safety in crossing the street"

[storm badge]

I saved a family from their abusive father, (he was a ghost haunting the family)

[light bridge]

What's up ghost hunters

[cedar shoal]

I wouldn’t lie it’s not a good idea

[leaden ivy]

I don't expect them to address everyone.

I expect them to see a bunch of bug reports about certain bugs and at the very least add them to the #known-issues list, or mention that they're aware of the problem and it is on their radar.

[cedar shoal]

Hello!

[dim spindle]

gee i wish a talking train would js appear outta nowh- IS THAT THE BIGGEST STRONGEST ENGINE ON THE ISLAND OF SODOR

[odd peak]

is anyone else experiencing insanely fast sanity drain on grafton despite lights being on, no ghost events or anything else that would drain it?

not sure if this a bug so don’t know if i should report it. i even took sanity and within less than 5 minutes i was at 0% sanity 😭

[severe sonnet]

I’m not saying you specifically, I’m saying it in a literal sense

I worked retail and CS, I know exactly how ring around the rosy here works

[dim spindle]

how does it work

[leaden ivy]

that's been reported since grafton came out. Is it an actual bug? Is it being addressed? We have no idea because there is no communication

[sly cypress]

i've seen servers with communication

and yea.. it didnt end well

[glacial finch]

noooooo i got hit by the mimic

[severe sonnet]

I believe it was fixed in the hotfix

[glacial finch]

pretty sure mimic has fake orbs

[cedar shoal]

Point hope has the same issue

[glacial finch]

the mimic fooled me

[odd peak]

dang. i kept getting hunted so fast too before and dying. i had the ghost in the mannequin room too and was so excited

[severe sonnet]

You give an answer, which they did with the hotfix and continue on. If another problem arises, work towards a solution and carry on

[glacial finch]

wait what ghost can close front door on ghost events

[sly cypress]

during ghost events, like all of them lol

[leaden ivy]

The hotfix wasn't an answer though? Unless the answer was "we considered mannequins clipping through walls a bigger issue to fix than bugs that hinder player communication and rewards"

[severe sonnet]

Use to be yurei but not anymore

[sly cypress]

Yurei is an ability, not a ghost event

[severe sonnet]

The hotfix corrected that for me

[solemn stream]

every ghost can shut the front door during and event or hunt

[glacial finch]

the one time I think it aint a mimic

[severe sonnet]

Some of yall need to play solo more often too

[glacial finch]

I let my guard down

[cedar shoal]

Solo is great

[solemn stream]

no thanks i'm a wuss and van royalty

[sand marten]

Mimic's "abilities used" stat in the debriefing is both other ghost's abilities it uses and how many times it changes what it's mimicking, right?

[sly cypress]

they can't just slap a hotfix onto the game and call it a day

the file size would get too big, they still need to test to see if it affects other areas.. and still need permission from sony and microsoft to push the hotfix through

[cedar shoal]

Van princess

[solemn stream]

nah bish, i'm a queen

[leaden ivy]

i wouldn't mind playing solo again if we got like a solo-only mode toolbelt to carry more stuff at once

[severe sonnet]

The correct answer

[glacial finch]

I literally ended up doing solo since the person I was playing with left after probably beign dead. I aint like solo but I atleast I went in and did stuff. went from 2 player to one player real fast and I thought it was twins but no mimic fooled me

[sly cypress]

if microsoft and sony say, sorry we can't have this update as it breaks the game

they have to go back and redo it

[leaden ivy]

There needs to be a trello for phasmo bugs, not just a trello for upcoming content

[severe sonnet]

I can agree with this, though i mainly play small to medium maps so it doesn’t bother me too much

[sand marten]

So I had orbs and spirit box and walked into the house with a UV and salt and was like "oh wait it can't be UV" and then the ghost touched the door right in front of me and left a nice juicy handprint. NICE TRY MIMIC

[solemn stream]

there is literally a bug reports channel you can peruse if you so please

[leaden ivy]

Yeah, it's just so much more efficient to have multiple people to get media/bring in tools/help determine the ghost so there's just no benefit to solo play

[glacial finch]

I should of checked the front door but got no UV on other stuff. I should of never let my guard down. plus it didn't mimic any orbs for me

[leaden ivy]

Can you let me know how to sort the bug reports by "Acknowledged by KG, being addressed"

[sand marten]

It did, you just didn't see them. Mimic always has orbs

[glacial finch]

literally checked the room a few times with a camera and it didn't show even in the spots I was walking. it was prob avoiding me

[sly cypress]

i have that one friend that just audio records the whole game, and stands in the dark

While i struggle to bring all the equipment, and by the time i bring the last one.. he already guessed the ghost

like thank for help, lol

[leaden ivy]

Most people I play with don't like doing media so I'm happy to get audio and video and whatnot while they work on IDing the ghost

[solemn stream]

no, because they do bug fixes when they have time. you can however know that if there's enough bug reports submitted, there will absolutely be a hotfix adressing it

[sand marten]

Yeah, the orbs can be hard to spot sometimes

[severe sonnet]

I’m picky about who I play with

[sand marten]

Fortunately with the new video recording, you can just run around the rooms holding down your record button and waiting for it to tell you that there are orbs

[sly cypress]

he literally does nothing else except audio

can't even do the spiritbox, because he refuses to leave the room lol. and i literally have to ask for him to do it, otherwise he wont

[leaden ivy]

I'm not asking for them to give a timeframe on when something will be fixed - I'm asking for a way to be able to tell when an issue is acknowledged and on the board as "to be addressed"

[severe sonnet]

That’s pretty much no different from a time frame

[brazen coral]

gonna cry i was doing a 15x and it was in the basement in the middle section, i dropped my smudge for half a second and it hunted which i couldnt pick it back up in time 😭

[severe sonnet]

And they aren’t going to do that, nor should they

[odd vale]

There isn’t a really a list for that. #known-issues are these that just don’t need any more reporting. Any other issues can be reported. But they look at every bug report that comes in.

[leaden ivy]

That's very different. One is expecting to know when something will arrive. The other is expecting to know that it is being sent

[sand marten]

"Known bug" is all you really need. It lets you know that there is a bug, it's been acknowledged, and will be worked on whenever that becomes feasible.

[leaden ivy]

I'm not asking Amazon when my package will arrive, I just want to know that it is in the system and will be sent at some point

[sly cypress]

im sure they have their board, of bugs they are working on
But as new content comes out... their addresses of concerns get reshuffled into what is priority with base game with new content

they still have to test the game with the prior bug fixes with the new concerns before being pushed out for all platforms

and if sony or microsoft say no.. then they have to redo it

[solemn stream]

it's in the system from the moment it's been reported

[leaden ivy]

So if an issue affecting many users that has been reported for months is not there, what are we supposed to think?

[severe sonnet]

Except it isn’t different

[sand marten]

Besides, bugs can be tricky. You can't say "this bug is going to be fixed next week" when it takes you two weeks just to find out why the dang thing is happening

[leaden ivy]

No one is asking for timeframes on bug fixes

[severe sonnet]

You just did

[sly cypress]

if its a bug theyre working on, and its been months

its mostly because they can't address the issue without breaking the game

[sand marten]

You are though

[leaden ivy]

Where

[odd vale]

It means that reports still need to come in because they need more information. People will often report a bug but it gives very little info for them to actually figure out what happened and how to replicate and then fix it.

[severe sonnet]

Right here

[odd vale]

Known issues means they have enough info known that they don’t need more reports

[sly cypress]

its like looking into the dna sequence of the game, with the little info they have.. and trying to fix it, and the other fixes they now have to do that affects the entire future sequence

[leaden ivy]

"Being addressed" as in "it is something that will be fixed at some point" not "it is being worked on right now"

[severe sonnet]

The amount of people that know nothing about gaming programming and especially running a business is….something

[leaden ivy]

I could have worded it better, how about "Verified bug, to be fixed"

[sly cypress]

idk i just like how bug fixes are expected overnight, lol

[leaden ivy]

who tf is expecting that lol

[severe sonnet]

Tell Reddit that

Neckbeards gonna neck

[leaden ivy]

Oh, right. Reddit exists

Unfortunately

[sly cypress]

just report the bug

expect the hotfixes

don't expect it overnight and enjoy the game

thats all i can say lol

[severe sonnet]

I’m on it for shits and giggles but good gosh

The entitlement is pathetic

[sand marten]

Okay, so I'm a mechanic. If a customer comes in and says "sometimes my car makes noise", that doesn't help me at all. I need to know what noise it's making, when it's making it, and approximately how often. And even then I can't even start diagnosis until I can duplicate the issue myself. It's the same way with bug reports. If someone just says "ghost did something it wasn't supposed to", that's not enough. They need to know what was going on when the bug happened and need to be able to duplicate it before they can even start trying to roll out a fix.

[leaden ivy]

I want to, but when I'm kicked from the nth lobby because the voice system stopped working and the host thinks I'm just no longer using a mic, it gets a bit tough

[severe sonnet]

HOW LONG TILL MY GMT 400 IS REBUILT?!

[sly cypress]

just play in vc lobbies of discord

[sand marten]

2.5 million years

[leaden ivy]

that might work, if you used the lfg on the discord for every game you wanted to play

[solemn stream]

never, get a ford gt500 1967 instead

[severe sonnet]

This, what few I play with we use Xbox party chat

[leaden ivy]

and could wrangle everyone who joined into one lobby

[sly cypress]

i would get kicked, i'm mute

so i have no choice but to use tts bots to speak for me in discord vc

most dont even supply the tts bot

[leaden ivy]

just to do something that one would expect should work in the game

[sand marten]

I just realized I've been chilling in Grafton this whole time doing sweet sweet nothing

Probably been sitting here for a good 15 minutes and the ghost is like "um... you okay bud? you gonna come identify me?"

[severe sonnet]

For clarification I wasn’t tossing aside your concerns, I was saying the hotfix literally fixed it for me

[sly cypress]

i don't even bother joining
The amount of lobbies i see with
Mic required, lol

i'll play alone

[leaden ivy]

Wait, you're saying the hotfix fixed the problem with the vc randomly breaking for you? hot damn

[severe sonnet]

Yes, it really did

[leaden ivy]

I wouldn't mind playing with someone mute, like I just need to know beforehand and we can establish some kind of yes/no ouija board system lol

[severe sonnet]

Even though I use Xbox party chat more that it

[leaden ivy]

There's just no way to effectively communicate "The voice system broke again and will be fixed when we start the next map but right now I literally cannot hear or talk to you, please don't kick me"

[sly cypress]

yea that tts bot in discord vc changed my game experience alot
it keeps people from having to read the chat, and can audibly hear now

[severe sonnet]

Throw the music box at them and let Darwin do the rest

[solemn stream]

are you looking for peple to play phas?

[leaden ivy]

The most I can do is throw the ghost's evidence type equipment on the floor of the van while spinning violently and flashing my light at them, and even then sometimes people don't understand what I'm trying to tell them

[valid sigil]

hell yeah

[solemn stream]

-lfg you'd have better luck in the channels bellow

[prime elk]

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

[leaden ivy]

unfortunately high multiplier lobbies have no cursed equipment, rip

[severe sonnet]

[minor dagger]

Anyone else notice that the left corner of the fireplace on grafton is glitched? It’s shiny and when you walk up to it it’s super bright and the texture to it is shifty

[solemn stream]

let the people in https://discord.com/channels/435431947963990026/1297688797684826123 know so they can try to fix it

[sly cypress]

lol i wish i could play, cant enter the first room without my console dashboarding

[solemn stream]

RIP

[minor dagger]

I’m just unsure if it’s specifically my current lobby or it is the same for anyone on grafton so I’ll do two more runs and if it’s still the same, I’ll make the report

[hexed hare]

omg I was just coming to say this

[severe sonnet]

I don’t recall, might see if it’s there tomorrow

[hexed hare]

the moment I saw the white light an event happened and I thought I was gonna die

[sly cypress]

i wonder how the seasonal events are gonna be in grafton

[lime token]

Santa hats on the mannequins

[sly cypress]

lmao, that'd be awesome

what about the dolls

[leaden ivy]

Santa hat on the ghost - elf outfits on the mannequins

[sly cypress]

put a broken christmas tree in the main room with the busted light/chandelier blinking

[tranquil adder]

so for mares - they can hunt at 40% sanity in the dark, 60% sanity in the light. with that being said, is it basing it off of the room you're in? or the room the ghost is in?

[lime token]

Ghost

[tranquil adder]

oh wow okay thank you. like the ghost room itself, correct? my custom has the ghost wandering set to high.

[lime token]

If the ghost is in a room with the lights on, the sanity rule will apply

[tranquil adder]

gotcha, wherever the ghost is. good to know! thank you so much

[brazen coral]

Someone said Mares are faster in the dark than the light, I have no clue if that is true cuz i never paid attention and I was thinking "Nah no way"

[lime token]

That's false info

[tranquil adder]

yeah that doesn't sound right - it also sounds like a nightmare to code lol

[brazen coral]

thought so but that would be a good addition

[lime token]

It would be cool tho :3

[severe sonnet]

False

[tranquil adder]

it would be super cool

[brazen coral]

i got a clip of a Mare losing speed without LOS so at first I thought it was real then i realized it got stuck on a table corner

i lowkey gotta learn 150% ghost speed I thought a Mare was a Raiju or Thaye 😭

[lime token]

If the ghost has sped up via Los prior it will gradually slow down

During the hubt

[wise oyster]

And the smudge bug

[tranquil adder]

oh i didn't know that i thought it would just be stuck at that speed for the remainder of the hunt

[brazen coral]

huh

[wise oyster]

It speeds up 5x faster than it slows down, so it keeps most its speed

[tranquil adder]

ohhhh thank you!

[wise oyster]

smudges are causing ghosts to drop accumulated LoS speed while blinded

[brazen coral]

so like it goes from super fast to normal again after smudging?

or does it lose a lot of speed

[wise oyster]

goes back to normal iirc, but it picks back up where it'd be after the 5s blindness wears off

[lime token]

Only really noticeable if you are using the stinky t1

[brazen coral]

oh wait, I think i seen that 😭

I might actually have it clipped

[wise oyster]

True, it's still there on T2, but much less noticeable

[lime token]

But with the t3 however...

[brazen coral]

If i send the clip in #boo-ster-chat can u tell?

it would be near the very end cuz it double backed on me then ended the hunt 2-3 seconds later

[wise oyster]

I mean whatever in the code seems to apply across tiers, but n/a to T3

[lime token]

It's just the best tier man

[wise oyster]

I'd argue, but you're playing a different game

[lime token]

Yeah I'm on ucn, I don't even know what a phasmo is

I managed to mis identify the twins on a 20 minute game on grafton today, something tells me I need the cheat sheet

[wise oyster]

nah I just don't forget Geo's XP strat

[lime token]

Well to be fair, listening on the Pmic during a hunt whilst in hotel hantu is kinda cooked

[wise oyster]

what happens in vc stays in vc, unless someone's streaming

[tranquil adder]

y'all listen the ghost models don't usually scare me but bent back betty makes me want to cry lol

[lime token]

Rewatching this now, just realised how much ghost photos I missed out on

[tranquil adder]

oh does anyone know why sometimes ghost events don't take any sanity at all??

[lime token]

It was a moroi, could've utilised the extra smudge time for photos

[lime token]

For some ghost event you have to walk into the ghost for it to drain sanity

[brazen coral]

Misses every photo cuz u time it half a second late

[last anchor]

Does mist form count as ghost photo for apoc?

[wise oyster]

try it

[tranquil adder]

no, it counts as a mist form photo unfortunately

[last anchor]

Dang Alr

I kinda figured

[wise oyster]

Has anyone done apoc without a photo yet today?

[tranquil adder]

thank you! ❤️

[last anchor]

You need a photo…

[solemn stream]

😠 < me when teammates walk into the event when i'm tryna get media

[lime token]

Hold on lemme reset my savefile and test rq, BRB!

[wise oyster]

I thought you always got the popup anyway.

[lime token]

I haven't done apoc in a hot minute

I will test tomorrow

[lime holly]

Photo is needed, but before grafton rework update i got the apoc trophy without a ghost photo (but i did have mist form)

[wise oyster]

pretty sure from the hotfix to Grafton you didn't need it at all

[lime holly]

Nah right after i got my 50 wins on grafton rework I did an apoc3 game and i only did objectived + ghost and didnt get the trophy

[wise oyster]

b/c at first it wasn't counting shadow/transclucent forms

[lime holly]

Unless you mean after this most recent hotfix

[wise oyster]

nah we're saying the same thing. From the Chronicle hotfix up til Grafton (so it's apparently fixed)

[lime holly]

Yeah its fixed

Unless the grafton hotfix today broke it again (doubt it)

[marble moth]

Just run a 0x custom with 3ev

[marble moth]

Too long tho

[lime holly]

or do 1 hunt games if u know ghost tells

[crude finch]

is there anyway i can use the spirit box without having to talk irl?

[marble moth]

If someone does it for me then it will be faster I Cba keep doing it for hours

[wise oyster]

they're not limited time, just play the maps

[solemn stream]

turn on text recognition

[lime holly]

Yes there’s text mode

[lime token]

I have the lighthouse keeper and the inmate badge but it not saying 50/50 on the event board is pissing me off

[marble moth]

Can someone help me then Cba do on own

[lime holly]

what number does it say?

[wise oyster]

Does it fill back in as you play?

[lime token]

The SM one is 11/50 and point hope is like 7/50

[lime holly]

Does it go up if you get a win on those maps

[lime token]

(i have the badges from my old savefile)

[lime token]

Yeah

If you think I want to do another 50 games on that map your crazy

[karmic marten]

Hi everyone.. does anyone know why my account was reset and all my xp and money was reset to intern?

[wise oyster]

[lime token]

I should do some 15x on grafton tomorrow, have been playing 10x on it all day

[wise oyster]

What's your score?

for the map

[lime token]

Oh I got 50/50 in like 2 hours when it released lol

[lime holly]

Yee same

[wise oyster]

No I mean playing 10x, how do you rate it

8.2/10?
78/100?
4/5 ⭐ ?
however you want

[lime token]

I think it's great, only thing holding it back is the god awful bone spots and the rng riddled photos

[lime holly]

Most of my bones have been dining room or child bedroom

Havent gotten any other bone rooms really

[wise oyster]

The leaves are great for ambience and crap for bone hunting

[halcyon temple]

Why is God hiding in one of the walls on Grafton? Theres an extremely bright beam coming from a specific wall when viewed from night vision camera.

[golden temple]

The bug that crashes ur game when looking at the truck's computer still persists.

Solid 8/10

The piano on the left is my favourite spot on the map

[sly cypress]

if you draw a door and knock 3 times, you can go to the afterlife and talk to your counselor

[lime holly]

Agreed. Its a great start spot especially for 15x

[halcyon temple]

Real?

[lime holly]

And u can peek the staircase + yokai test

[wise oyster]

in the living room?

[sly cypress]

they'll issue you a book 'the book for the deceased' and it'll have a guide on hauntings

[lime token]

Also did some bleasdale which were enjoyable

[lime token]

Ya

[halcyon temple]

Perfect

[lime token]

However there is one spot on the piano that I am forever getting stuck on whilst looping

I also had some diabolical bone spots

Turning down texture quality helps a tad bit

[sly cypress]

weirdest place?

[lime token]

One that blended into the leaves where the breaker spawns downstairs

Still have yet to SEE a mannequin interaction but I have heard one

[mossy mason]

i'm unsure of if they can move while you're looking at them
hopefully they can't

[lime token]

Wonder if that applies for dead people 🤔

It would be sick to actually see them move toward you or I wonder if they just teleport

[cedar shoal]

I have not seen them teleport just yet I have seen them move though

[cedar shoal]

Mmm something that needs to be tested

[mossy mason]

is there an animation for them moving, or does it just snap into the new pose

[cedar shoal]

It snaps because they only move when no one is looking no point animating something that can’t be looked at

[mossy mason]

aye
got confused since you said you saw one move

[cedar shoal]

Sorry I type to fast so the autocorrect does that

[lime token]

I am still confused if we are getting the TW rework this year, people have said it is but it isn't listed on the roadmap

[mossy mason]

it's in the official roadmap post, but not on the visual for some reason

[cedar shoal]

I believe we are, it should be in development

[lime token]

Yay

[cedar shoal]

They said say this year

So…

[lime token]

Diner October and character customization + Tangle in December, calling it

[cedar shoal]

That’s if the devs pull their end of the bargain and drop the updates on time

Typing on phone sucks

[plain hazel]

When using voodoo doll, does forced interactions include evidence? (Example; I use voodoo doll and the ghost does ghost writing).

[lime holly]

yee

[cedar shoal]

For ghost writing yes, used to be for dots not anymore though

Believe ghost writing is the only one

[lime token]

Uv technically

[cedar shoal]

forgot about that one

[terse sphinx]

My friend and I has an open spot if anyone wants to join.

[cedar shoal]

Ask here #lfg-eu or the channel depending on your location

[heady vessel]

just had my friend get killed in a hunt, i used the monkeys paw to bring them back and i died, they used the tarot cards and high priestessed me back to life

[lime token]

Epic

[vague echo]

What if you get killed while wishing for life in a hunt

[lime token]

If you are still I that game, can you test if your friend has 6 inventory slots?

[cedar shoal]

It breaks and does not perform your wish by my experience

[vague echo]

oh damn

[cedar shoal]

It might of been fixed, I haven’t checked

[lime token]

Only bug I know of from wishing for life is when you get revived, you have 6 inventory slots

[severe moon]

almost died from rev because I didn't know it's hunt, think it does event. but saw front door close lol.
luckily I hold smudge

[cedar shoal]

Wait what, does this still work?

[lime token]

Should do

[vague echo]

I'm using data sorry it's kinda slow

[cedar shoal]

That’s amazing

[cedar shoal]

You good 👍

[frosty tangle]

I love new Grafton so much

Also got the freaky dolls moved

One was suddenly at the front door lol in a dancing pose

It does feel easier to survive in a hunt because LOS is so easy to break in most rooms

[cedar shoal]

Sameee, at the front door? I knew they talked and moved around in the room I didn’t know they can teleport around the map as well

[frosty tangle]

Yeah it was just at the front door like "whatcha doin"

Watching us bring the gear in

[cedar shoal]

That’s creepy

I know the manikins can do that, had no idea the dolls also did it

[frosty tangle]

And one of the dolls was floating in the doll room

It was like arched back and in the air

[cedar shoal]

Oh I saw that interaction, I have only gotten one doll room, can’t wait for more

[frosty tangle]

I don't swear much irl but something about phas has me like a sailor

[cedar shoal]

Have you seen the manikins teleport yet?

[frosty tangle]

No not yet

[cedar shoal]

It’s so scary maybe scarier than the dolls

[frosty tangle]

I've been scared by the regular mannequins in the other maps

Where I think it's the ghost and I shit myself

This will make it so much worse lol

[cedar shoal]

I know right

[plain rock]

One of the mannequins was holding a doll by its head in a vice grip fashion, turned its head to me and said “nothing beats a jet2holiday and right now you can save 50 pounds!” 😭

[lime hornet]

will yurei only do his special door moves or can he also do regular ones

[lime token]

It can ONLY fully close and fully open doors

It can't slam em I think

[lime hornet]

oksy

ty

[cedar shoal]

It has to be a gentle open and close, it can’t slam them anymore

[lime token]

Gotcha

[strange coyote]

Can I suggest something completely unplanned, unasked for and that the devs probably never had intention of doing as an idea?

I was thinking of a way phasmophobia would remain forever interesting.

[odd vale]

You can talk about it but there’s no official suggestions area.

[strange coyote]

I was thinking of a "Hardcore mode"

[cedar shoal]

I believe it works like this, I’m going to do some testing when I get a Yurei next

[lime token]

Die ingame? That means your dead irl

[strange coyote]

it disable journal guessing, in this game mode, you don't hunt the ghosts as a detective, but as you are being hunted heavily.

[plain rock]

Its quite ez to rule out yurei, if any door just clicks or makes a sound and it wasnt a full open or close you can cross it out

[strange coyote]

and you still get the items like EMF meter etc.

but you can't guess what the ghost is even if you got 2 clues, the game got to detect you have observed all 3 clues to allow you to understand what the ghost is, and the ghost will have extreme hunt that are VERY deadly.

in overall its jumpscare madness, horror madness action packed.

Say for example, a mimic can possess objects literally, an extreme hunt triggered can send a dresser flying at your face and you die.

The obake extreme hunt would become a massive blob of human parts, very bloody and very quick.

In other words, hardcore mode is meant for players to piss their pants.

[plain rock]

Or just play visage and achieve the same pants outcome

[strange coyote]

Phasmophobia is fun, but hunts get very straightforward and the spook after a while is like... not there anymore.

A hardcore mode where its more a fight or flight situation, where there's a lot of possible threat will make it infinitely interesting

[plain rock]

I feel that yea

Horror 2.0 will be interesting to see where they take it

[strange coyote]

Well this would be horror 3.0

[plain rock]

Devs have said itll make the game entirely diff then how we know it now

[strange coyote]

Its like a complete different gameplay idea on the side that would use most of the element of the game, removing most guessing elements adding more action elements.

[plain rock]

Why do i get this feeling youve played outlast trials

[odd vale]

I don’t think they’d ever add that. I get how it would be fun. DK said it’ll always be a co-op ghost investigation game.

[plain rock]

Agreed. Love the thinking but it’s not what they intend for the current audience. Phas is a quite unserious and whimsical ghost id game that’s purposefully accessible to many who arent about major jumpscares or layered threats/gore

[strange coyote]

It is an investigation and co-op, just you can't guess, or second guess, or triple guess.

Guessing is gone, you got to investigate throughoughly without chances of guessing

[winged blade]

i never played the game, anyone wanna play :3 ?

don't wanna play alone its boring

[prime elk]

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

[winged blade]

yes sir

[sharp lintel]

Is it always a goryo if the bone is in the ghost room? Sounds a little far fetched but I got told this recently and now I have to know

[lime token]

The bone isn't tied to ghost location, its completely random

[sharp lintel]

Okay thank you

[lime token]

It can spawn anywhere the ghost can walk

[glacial stag]

including through beds which makes it spawn in sometimes unreachable locations

[lime token]

Yup

[slow spade]

it really should be this way

tying it to the ghost room

[lime token]

Maybe the bone has to be either in the ghost room or rooms adjacent to it

That would make it too easy though

Or depending on map size, it could be like 10m/25m/40m away from the ghost room

[crude finch]

i use salt and the ghost stood in it and then i used a uv light and saw its foot then it dissapeard would that count as a uv light evidence?

[cerulean dome]

what's up with all the hackers on this game, swear i encounter one every week

[lime holly]

I proposed having a set of preset bone locations. Something similar to how cursed objects used to be before they had 1 set location

[cerulean dome]

defeats the purpose of bone hunting, but understandable on bigger maps

[lime holly]

well u still gotta go check each spot and it also rewards game knowledge by knowing the possible spots on each map

[lime token]

I think if tweaked this idea could work pretty well

[cerulean dome]

i just feel like it shouldn't be able to spawn in the dumbest areas possible, i found one behind the pc monitor on willow street, and some are just impossible to reach

[cerulean dome]

i agree with this, should spawn near ghost room

[lime holly]

yeah, having preset locations would resolve that issue. Even if they allow every room to have 1 spot. it just keeps it from being in a dumb spot

[lime token]

1 on each room would be a great balance of game knowledge and actually searching for the bone

Idk what it is with woodwind but the bone spots on there are kinda predictable

[lime holly]

Yeah feels like half the time its in the floaty spot

[lime token]

Free photo I guess

I wish I could see how much times I have played woodwind in total, I'm estimating around like 16k+

[slow spade]

including my resets I'm about 30k games on brownstone

[lime token]

:O

[lime holly]

wow

[lime token]

This guy has less hours than me btw 🥀

[slow spade]

lmao

[lime holly]

I am at 9900 cases and 1080 hours

[brazen coral]

pro

im only at 690 at 140 hours 😭

[lime token]

21000 at 1860 hours

Ayy my hours are like my old level 😅

[modern mauve]

2500+ hours, I'm sure I have over 15k cases

[slow spade]

I think I'm at 22k at 1630hrs

wait oops, discord mobile is horrible silly me 💔

[modern mauve]

I've reset my pc several times and have been playing since 2020

[slow spade]

I only reset mine once and only lost 4k case numbers so nothing too bad

[lime token]

With the pace I'm going, I'm gonna have 2000 hours by the end of August lol

[slow spade]

I might reach 100k case number if I have to keep resetting 😭

[slow spade]

wouldn't surprise me

aiming for 2500 hrs by Christmas 💔

[lime token]

I'm kinda selling though because I'm going to Dublin at 12, so much potential hours LOST

[slow spade]

guh

[faint wyvern]

Do y’all actually like the new update?? For graft on and bleasedale

[slow spade]

you'll live

[faint wyvern]

Like honestly would like to know

[lime token]

I was being satire

[slow spade]

its much better than the old maps imo

[faint wyvern]

Why do u like it whst do u like

It feels cluttered but it’s interesting

[slow spade]

^

[lime token]

It looks pretty

[faint wyvern]

But from the two farm houses which u like better then??

[lime token]

That's a hard one

[slow spade]

yeah

[lime token]

Bleasdale

[slow spade]

both are good in their own ways

[tropic raven]

Holy shit guys my t1 crucifix did something

[lime token]

Grafton would be better if bone hunting wasn't miserable

[faint wyvern]

Bleasedale is prettier honestly

[tropic raven]

I’m so proud of my 2 wooden sticks

[faint wyvern]

Like it reminds me of a history house…

Like Ik logically.. it will take me a bit to figure out map such as hiding spots looping cursed items rct to while I had the last two memorized I will mis that

[lime token]

If all of these reworks follow the trend of being completely unique, phas is going to become 10x more better

[faint wyvern]

True

I feel like sunny meadows needs a re work.. same lay out maybe but yeh

[slow spade]

its going to keep getting harder to create unique gameplay as more maps come out

[lime token]

We got a high school, where is the pre school

[faint wyvern]

True….

[lime token]

A shopping centre would be nice, but I feel like having all of the objects be throwable would make the performance really shite

[faint wyvern]

I’m just on infi sprint and friendly ghost taking my sweet time looking..

There’s so much interesting stuff..

[slow spade]

too open tbh

[faint wyvern]

Would be fun for polti. But line of sight would be annoying cause of how they r set up

[dry cove]

just did my first proper looping even tho it was a thaye

[lime token]

Nice!

[slim whale]

Gj!

[faint wyvern]

If the manaquines touch u do u die if it moves on own???

[sly cypress]

you die like kazuma when the tractor hit him

[glacial stag]

more like if i dont reach that tree before that car passes me i'll die

[sly cypress]

tractor never touched him, he died from shock

[cedar shoal]

Ignore these bums they are trolling you , no only the ghost can kill you the manikins are just there to be creepy

[lime token]

Someone give me the top 10 list of rooms right now

[slow spade]

storage room 1, classroom 37, foul linen west, morgue, cafeteria security, tw utility, Edgefield orange bedroom, tw foyer, white tent, cabin bathroom

[willow vessel]

Good morning everyone 👀 short question: am I the only one now missing the animated Grafton Foil Badge? I finally had the non-animated unlocked today. But the animated one is still missing

[ionic brook]

Any tips for when playing solo?

[cedar shoal]

Learn how to survive, check for hiding spots when you enter the map

[gusty otter]

hey anyone got fix for not able to load online multiplayer lobby?

[cedar shoal]

I’m not having issues here

[gusty otter]

same my friends too its only with me and i cant able to see why its happening i already tried everything even reinstalled game 10 times

still same issue

[willow vessel]

Maybe try restarting your router?

[cedar shoal]

Reinstalling your game won’t fix the issue

[gusty otter]

did that too

none of lobbies are showed in my case on any server in phasmo

[cedar shoal]

Try verifying files

[gusty otter]

completly blank

[willow vessel]

That's really sus

[wooden robin]

Do you have cross play enabled

[cedar shoal]

Good question

[gusty otter]

i am on steam

i can play pvt lobbies

[wooden robin]

Yeah, do you have cross play enabled?

[cedar shoal]

No I’m the settings

[gusty otter]

i didnt check that

[wooden robin]

If you don't have it enabled then you can't play with anyone who has it enabled

[gusty otter]

isnt that automatically enabled?

[wooden robin]

Idk but it's the only reason I can think of

[gusty otter]

how can i check it?

[wooden robin]

In settings idk which one exacy

[gusty otter]

in game settings or steam settings?

[wooden robin]

Game settings

[gusty otter]

let me check!

its on still same issue

[wooden robin]

Restart the game and if it still doesn't work then I'm out of ideas

-fix

Is the issue failing to connect to the servers or is there no lobbies visible?

no lobby visible

[cedar shoal]

Just no players correct?

[jagged dune]

can i see ghost orbs with night goggl;es?

[glacial stag]

no

[jagged dune]

thanks

[amber fossil]

Are there additional multipliers on friends that join a lobby? I feel like I’m leveling way slower than everyone else and I am doing all of the hunts and stuff and surviving. I don’t understand lol

[slim whale]

Yes

[slim whale]

Are you dying a lot?

Other than that there are no other mults

If you die you lose the high mult. Will just be 1x

And what level are you and your friends?

Higher level takes more xp. So they will level "faster" since they dont need as much xp as you

[amber fossil]

Nope, we both get out alive and the ghost is guessed correctly. I could be just flat out seeing things. But I’m trying to meet her at level 100 to start tier 3, but I have been stuck at level 98 and she’s at 102 now. I was at 97 when she hit 100. I might be just being a nit pick

[crude finch]

what ghost breaks lightbulbs?

[amber fossil]

Mare

?

[crude finch]

it was a thaye 😭

[amber fossil]

😭😭

[slim whale]

Every ghost can

Mare does it more often

[upper hornet]

question about the tarot cards, does anyone know what the wings mean?

[gritty dove]

High priestess, revives a dead player

[upper hornet]

ohhh, thank you, was wondering bc my friend got it a few min ago. thank you!

[solid saffron]

I got ran up on by a doll last night and I am overjoyed

[cosmic cosmos]

OR it prevents 1 death

[gritty dove]

Technically still a revive

[vestal ferry]

it doesn't prevent the death. it just stores 1 revive until it's needed

[gritty dove]

Exactly

[cosmic cosmos]

IF there's dead players, one will be revived, if there's none, it'll revive the next player to die

[wide rock]

should revive the ghost to be honest.

[cosmic cosmos]

^

perma-hunt

wonder what happens if you get multiple priestess cards, will the stacks stack? or only the first card counts?

[cerulean dome]

how can i indentify onyro on no evidence on camp wood wind ?

im having trouble

[wide rock]

firelights are your friend

[barren cliff]

Use the three candles test or how it’s called “onryo test”

The onryo will blow them out first

[wide rock]

let me simplify it
An onryo will attempt to hunt at any sanity after extinguishing every 3rd flame

doesn't matter how long after each one it blows out

it can be 20 minutes after the 2nd one, if it blows out the 3rd flame

it'll try to hunt immediately as it blows it out

[cerulean dome]

what about then 20 sec onyro test? i heard about it but i dont know how it works

[wide rock]

i have no idea what a 20 second onryo test is

[cerulean dome]

i dont know i think it has something to do with only one firelight

[wide rock]

onryos treat firelights as crucifixes as well - they will prioritise the firelights instead of crucifixes (they can't hunt while a flame is lit)

[vague echo]

if the firelight you just lighted just went out within 20 sec its onryo

[wide rock]

is this actually a thing?

[cerulean dome]

ah thats gonna be annoying while smudge timer is already going

[wide rock]

there is no mention of that anywhere that ive read. insane if it does exist.

[cerulean dome]

ive heard it around before

is there any other ways rather than just sitting in the ghost room ?

[wide rock]

I'd still rely on the every 3rd flame tactic anyway.

[vague echo]

I was playing smth wait-

[cerulean dome]

i get scared of being caught out if im not close to a looping spot

[wide rock]

not really, no. An onryo is just a normal ghost if you exlude the flames

[vague echo]

it wasnt I think

i mean- I rely on that method outside the hunt but I think it still applies

[vague echo]

yeah it exists

[wide rock]

is that only during its ability though?

[vague echo]

no

its kinda ovbious if the ghost blow too much candle

but it cant blow the same candle for 20 seconds after it has been blown out

[languid lodge]

Can someone explain how putting doors halfway tests for Yurei? Like it get it can only fully open or close doors but how does that test for it.

[wide rock]

learn something new everyday

[cerulean dome]

and i thought smudge timer was tedious

[cerulean dome]

yeah have no idea why ppl do that i always leave doors fully close or open

[vague echo]

to not confuse them ig? if they did a door touch they can easily rule out a yurei if it did not fully close nor open the door

I never do that honestly sound is my friend here

[languid lodge]

yeah but like if the door is just open / closed doesnt that still count

[cerulean dome]

wouldnt that not even matter if its fully close or open

[vague echo]

I dont really know cus I havent tried that xd

[cerulean dome]

yureis are annoyingf

[vague echo]

public knowledge

[languid lodge]

i see alot of the really good players doing it. so it has to mean something no?

like have a benefit

[raw ore]

There's an update what's it for?

[cerulean dome]

halfway open doesnt even make sense if ur looking for yurei

[wide rock]

i think its just easier to distinguish if a door has been tampered with. There is no other reason that I can think of

[cerulean dome]

i think grafton, fixed some bugs

[vague echo]

yeah I have no idea, I think its just to mark that for yurei specifically

[wide rock]

Yurei's must completely close or open a door outside of hunts.

[raw ore]

Oh okay well the Grafton rework was on Tuesday so yh I guessed bug fixes

[vague echo]

hotfix in #game-announcements

[cerulean dome]

yeah ppl where saying it kept making them crashed, i never had that problem though

[vague echo]

it was in #change-log mb

[raw ore]

Oh yh I had that

[languid lodge]

okay. yurei and spirit are my last tests I was hoping it was more beneficial lmao. thanks homies.

[zinc coyote]

[tranquil jewel]

Can player ghosts see dots still? on the new grofton house me and a friend couldnt see ghost in dots but living players can

[random stratus]

hides in corner
accidentally breathes into microphone without knowing
dies
love this game

[lime holly]

Turn on push to talk

[random stratus]

oh no i wasn't complaining

[south violet]

question time: i usually play nightmare. professional feels too easy for me. insanity can feel extremely hit or miss (it's a skill issue). i got bronze apoc without rerolling for a deo. what the heck difficulty would be best for me at this point? 😭

[random stratus]

it adds to the fun

[lime nymph]

Move to insanity and only play small maps, just aim to learn ghost behaviors so you can finally get that gold apoc

[south violet]

there's only a few ghosts that i can't quite get right. it's like despite the actual knowledge i have on them, i can't quite execute it perfectly? spirit is the biggest contender. then the ghosts that act like the opposite of the ghost they are. it's the most bizarre feeling. i tried x10 apoc and got all objectives, needed actual ghost & ghost photo and deadge.

[lime holly]

Try 0 evidence on street maps imo

Just try to get ghost right and build consistency

[lime nymph]

If spirit is a pain have you incensed it and put on the 180s timer?

[south violet]

i think the biggest roadblock for me is the desire to go to the next step, like 0 evidence, to learn more, but eventually, if you're not doing well consistently, you have to bump it down because you'll be broke 😂

[small agate]

This is why I will find a Phasmo sugar parent

[lime holly]

Thats another thing to practice - is staying alive

you can also enable dont lose items in custom

[candid hornet]

does someone want to play tanglewood with me?
