phasmo-chat

[forest kelp]

Okay

Thats a good list atleast thankyou mate

Do we know if that was always the case with hantu and obake ? I feel like there was a time I could see those things and then had it change later

[lament wing]

Is the ghost not forced to hunt if you activate the Music Box? I heard the ghost singing, but never saw any physical form approach the Box, and no Hunt was initiated when the Music Box closed.

[forest kelp]

Using it just makes it sing, you need to reach 0 sanity or throw the music box to start a hunt afaik

[glacial stag]

when hantu breath and obake shift was added dead players could see them

but that was changed later on

as it made the game too ez for those alive

[lament wing]

Really? Well shit, I'm at 75% sanity (when I used it), and I thought I could get a free ghost event + repel objectives, because it always approaches the Music Box when I've been in a lobby where we did that otherwise, this is the first time no physical form went to the box.

[forest kelp]

Ooh thankyou

[forest kelp]

I only play on 0 sanity so I dont actually really know how it interacts outside of instantly hunting at 0 sanity unfortunately, just gave you the only info I knew hahaha hopefully somebody else here has more experience with the item :)

[willow rain]

Ghosti's basics

[lament wing]

Ohhhh, according to the wiki I placed the box too far away. It will indeed perform a ghost event and manifest, but only when within 5 meters of the box. It will, however, sing and display its current location when within 20 meters of the box.

That explains the fact that I heard singing but saw nothing approach the box.

[willow rain]

YO

Fnaf maps in Phasmo would slap

[lament wing]

Lowkey? You're right.

[willow rain]

Especially a FNAF 1 map, the tone and palette is already perfectly Phasmophobia, it's a match made in heaven

Or hell lol

What are Mare's hunt thresholds?

[gray burrow]

Im level 50ish and I do Nightmare runs successfully like 80% of the time. Should I be doing perfect investigation or just get the ghost and some media

[gray burrow]

40 in light and 60 in dark I believe

[mystic moth]

you're right

just checked

[vagrant palm]

probably get the ghost and complete the objectives that are quick and easy plus any media that you can get

[gray burrow]

Okay

[vagrant palm]

perfect investigations don't really yield much additional value for the time required

[gray burrow]

Speaking of mares. I had my first 1 minute run 2 times because it being a mare and doing that insta turn off light ability it does

[gray burrow]

Alright

[vagrant palm]

that is nice when it tells you what type of ghost it is immediately

i had a yurei that slammed a door immediately on me

[mystic moth]

thats how you know its a mare lol I'd just call it and get out of there

[gray burrow]

Yeah, I was waiting on my friends to get on and played 2 matches and I had a mare and deogen and they revealed cuz their ability

[mystic moth]

yeee

[vagrant palm]

deos also have a special voice box sound

[gray burrow]

Im not a professional at all. But I sit down and "study" the attributes like crazy

[gray burrow]

Yeah thats what gave it away

[wise oyster]

Here's your study guide: Cheat Sheet

[vagrant palm]

and it is nice when banshess give their signature scream in the parabolic

[opaque oasis]

is there a five minute peace timer at the start of each round where the ghost doesn’t hunt

[vagrant palm]

depends on the difficiculty

[opaque oasis]

ah

[wise oyster]

On Amateur, yes, called Setup Time. It's canceled if someone uses a cursed object

[vagrant palm]

nightmare and above have no setup time

i believe

[wise oyster]

It's 2:30 on Intermediate, and none on anything higher

[vagrant palm]

i thought profeesional has a short one

[wise oyster]

nope

Setup Time is like training wheels, basically

[opaque oasis]

ah cause i wouldn’t believe my friend when a digital timer would tell the ghost to not kill mr

[gray burrow]

Its what I have been using lol 😭✌️

[vagrant palm]

i use a custom difficulty which has no set up time and no sanity

i have had a demon hunt and kill me within 30 seconds of entering the map

[gray burrow]

Holy shiz. I hate arguing with ppl that dont accept they're wrong.

My friend is saying Apex is better than Phasmo except he has played 2 rounds of phasmophobia

[vagrant palm]

lol

[spice ocean]

Was there anything leaked for the horror 2.0 update by chance? Stopped playing cuz it got more of a strategy game than horror and would love to see it having a comeback 👀

[spice ocean]

Hard to argue something which is subjective 😂

[vagrant palm]

indeed it is

[gray burrow]

Yeah

[modern mauve]

No leaks, no. Horror 2.0 is due for release sometime next year

Still got several major updates before then

[vagrant palm]

i wish that we could play the older versions of the maps in phas

[wise oyster]

I'm no longer bullish on Horror 2.0 before GTA VI

[zinc coyote]

Phas 2 before horror 2.0

[modern mauve]

I can't see gta6 before horror 2.0 tbh

[wise oyster]

I agreed before the Switch announcement. Somehow that's gonna cause delays

[modern mauve]

Once character stuff and tanglewood is done, it's all systems go on horror

[modern mauve]

Ya know, I don't think it'll cause much delays, if any

[zinc coyote]

The swarm of kids from switch that are gonna come..

[modern mauve]

NS2 is p much comparable to the Steam Deck and that works just fine

[wise oyster]

we initially thought that about console release, "Well if they're doing it now, they probably know they can get it done without any big delays" was the first feeling

[vagrant palm]

i hope that they don't re-arrange Tanglewood like they did with the farm houses

[modern mauve]

Yeah, but that was a very different Kinetic with only two programmers

I have 0 concerns this time around

[willow rain]

2ev is really pissing me off now

[opaque oasis]

wait what’s horror 2.0

[modern mauve]

Overhaul of all of the horror elements of the game

Ghost models, events, hunts, hallucinations etc

[vagrant palm]

i wonder if there are any new ghosts in the future

[modern mauve]

Gonna go ahead and suggest that the unity and performance updates coming will be enough for Phas to run effectively on NS2

[willow rain]

Yeah, I've just spent two weeks memorizing it lol

[vagrant palm]

i did not like what they did to the farm houses, the new layouts lost the feeling of being a farmhouse

[wise oyster]

If they do change the layout, I'm sure it won't be anything dramatic like the farmhouses. Those were very purposely overhauled to be distinct from one another.

[wise oyster]

tbh they felt more like cabins before anyway

[vagrant palm]

not really, I think that they tried to stuff to much into the small spaces

i do like the addition of the yard in grafton thou

and the porch

[wise oyster]

that's Bleasdale

[modern mauve]

The visuals are going to be the thing that gets the attention, give tw an identity

[vagrant palm]

it has been a while since i played and i have not memorized the new layouts yet

[meager cliff]

i wish the old farmhouse was still an option

[wise oyster]

Old Grafton is the only reworked map I miss a little

[barren warren]

got my first perfect game finally

[meager cliff]

right,it used to be my favorite too 😞

[vagrant palm]

i miss the old bleadesdale and asylum

[modern mauve]

I miss Maple, Grafton, and Asylum

[vagrant palm]

i really whish that they would add them in as alt versions to the existing ones

[wise oyster]

old Bleasdale was so hated, mostly for the giant attic

[modern mauve]

OG Asylum wasn't a great map for the moat part

[willow rain]

YOOOOO
Banshee saved my nightmare run oh thank you blessed

[modern mauve]

But I do miss it sometimes

[vagrant palm]

i do like the attic in the new version, they did a good job with that

[last drift]

Asylum needed a moat. And prison.

[wise oyster]

so a castle?

[last drift]

Why not, it's on the list

[modern mauve]

Both of the farmhouses now have distinct identities and that's what I love about the new ones

[vagrant palm]

i would love if they added an abandoned mall or an old drive in theater

[modern mauve]

Rather than brown house 1 a d brown house 2

[willow rain]

I was confused as shit about which ghost it could be (among the DOTS Gorb family) but while getting audio media I got a scream ^v^

[vagrant palm]

you got yourself a banshee

[willow rain]

Hell.
Yes.

[vagrant palm]

a new cursed item would be cool

cursed incense or something that causes hallucinations and makes the ghost really aggressive

[willow rain]

I have 13k, should I buy t3 candles or save for the wave of goodies I unlock at level 39?

[last drift]

Save

[gritty edge]

save

[willow rain]

(I already bought t2 smudge and lighter)

[gritty edge]

T3 candles ain’t all that the only good for th waterproof

[willow rain]

And infinite use

[vagrant palm]

and that they never burn out

[willow rain]

• highest sanity loss negation

[gritty edge]

and that shit

[vagrant palm]

but save for more important items

[gritty edge]

there are more important items

[vagrant palm]

like the evidence items, smudges, sanity meds and crucifixx, nightvision goggles

[gritty edge]

night vision😂

[willow rain]

Tbh I do kinda want t2 for the longer burn time (I only have to bring one per contract, and I know they're dirt cheap but still)

[willow rain]

I'm not getting NVG :>
Headlamp is perfect

[vagrant palm]

it is best to have one candle per crucifx

[gritty edge]

Such a joke t3 item t2 is so much better

[vagrant palm]

so you can do a onryo test

[willow rain]

Unless nightvis can show gorb

[vagrant palm]

it cannot

[gritty edge]

Nope

[willow rain]

Then yeah no point lmao

[vagrant palm]

but it saves you a slot so you can bring in 3 investigation items instead of 2 and a flashlight

[willow rain]

The funniest part of a hunt I think is pulling your closet doors back closed after the ghost disturbs them

[last drift]

It's probably easier just to get three evidences

I mean , you are talking to somebody who hasn't even hit level thirty six yet

[willow rain]

I mean no point in NVG

[last drift]

I don't recommend giving people expectations of high end strategies when just figure out the gameplay loop is hard enough

[willow rain]

I'm headlamp gang forever and I don't even have it yet

[last drift]

Same

Nvg? Trash.

[vagrant palm]

lol

[gritty edge]

Preach

[vagrant palm]

headlights are trash in my opinion

but to each their own

[willow rain]

Slightly better than default flashlight that takes an offhand slot? Absolute peak

[gritty edge]

T2 is goated

[last drift]

Throw on a headlight, Turn on the breaker , sit around in the living room and wait for the ghost to do things. Ez pz.

[vagrant palm]

just make sure that you remember to turn it off during hunts

[last drift]

Once you have the break on , you can turn it off

[willow rain]

Muscle memory, baby

[hoary pebble]

@rotund niche id like to join

[last drift]

And then just stand in the light , because there's no reason for me to be sitting in the dark , losing sanity for no reason

[willow rain]

So true, Mr Hammond Dead Space

[opaque oasis]

when’s horror 2.0

[last drift]

When it's finished

There is no eta or date.

[vagrant palm]

sometime next year probably

[last drift]

-roadmap

[prime elk]

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

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

[last drift]

Releasing in twenty twenty six , as soon as they're ready

Literally no date.

[vagrant palm]

it depends on how long it takes them to do do all of the reworks and have a product that they are satisified with

[wise oyster]

pulling up the roadmap feels like trolling

[vagrant palm]

lol

[last drift]

The developers used to give horizons, But after the console got pushed back twice and they received multiple death threats , they stopped doing that.

So now they'll just give you an ambient knowledge that they're working on something , and it will be ready whenever we release it

[willow rain]

The real horror is the dread that it's never actually coming

[solemn stream]

Excuse, death threats????

[last drift]

Oh, it's coming whenever they talk about it in interviews.You can see them get real excited

[wise oyster]

I'd refer you to that same roadmap, and the new player models we don't have

[last drift]

Yes , literally , i'm not saying they took him very seriously , but it does take a toll on your mental health to constantly receive them

[last drift]

I'm still\nHoping that they're gonna release it for the holiday season.But i'm not holding my breath

[wise oyster]

Yeah, please don't. You'll pass out.

[last drift]

We're gonna get character, customization and twitch drops.So you can become santa claus with a hat and a beard

[vagrant palm]

people need to chill, it is just a game, it is not life or death

[last drift]

"But I paid money"

I can refund you

Lolol

[vagrant palm]

exactly

people need to take a chill pill

[clever echo]

to play online with someone on PS5

[solemn stream]

Not allowed

My friend not and he is a rat

[rugged tundra]

[chrome mirage]

Hi, I'm Luna! I've recently gotten really into Phas! but I have two questions, if thats okay? (and this is the right channel!) 1. Is there a ways to change the enviornmental sound levels. i.e the rain, footsteps etc without affecting hunts? and 2. I've been having issues with my Spirit Box. I have T2 Spirit Box , but even after spending, sometimes an hour plus in a map with a ghost that has Spirit Box evidence I have no luck in getting them to talk to me. Is there something I'm doing wrong? Or am I just not interesting enough for them to wanna talk to me? (If this is the wrong chat for questions, due apologies!)

[odd vale]

No for the sound levels.

If they don’t ever talk and they are a spirit box it could be your voice rec isn’t working

[worthy hatch]

u gotta be in ghost room for spirit box

[median thorn]

I noticed that the police lights are dimmer on nells diner. Thank u for doing this phasmo. My seizures are no longer triggered from the lights on that map!

[worthy hatch]

i recomend using text instead of voive

[lime token]

Upgrading spirit box also increases its range. (And response chance iirc)

[odd vale]

You can check fixes in #common-tech-fixes or head to tech support. You can also rest out using the monkey paw as it uses the same system as the spirit box to understand the player (make sure voice rec is on and try any other options it gives you)

[chrome mirage]

I'll try that.

[loud lily]

Do yall have any tips to not get scared to even go in the house?

Im a new player and every time my brain says "Lets play some phasmo" and the second i enter the house look around and when the lights cut out im going alt f4 instantly

[odd vale]

Text is very accurate. I use it, too.

[dense topaz]

gusy

[chrome mirage]

I've changed my mic settings between the game and my computer a few times. Maybe the text is my best go

[median thorn]

For me I’m learning to condition my brain to do it somehow. I have to play with people sometimes

[prisma laurel]

Mimic 🤔

[dense topaz]

what does it mean when its raining blood and the sky is red

[prisma laurel]

Fruit punch rain

[chrome mirage]

Blood moon.

[lime token]

It means you rolled a bloodmoon, which is a 2% chance

[dense topaz]

what does it do

[loud lily]

Eh same but when my friends dosn't want to play i go alone then it's impossible for me

[odd vale]

[prisma laurel]

The moon is an apple and the rain is fruit punch flavored

[lime token]

Ghost is 15% faster, more activity and 10% more rewards!

[wise oyster]

Faster sanity drain, more active ghost, faster ghost during hunts, 10% bonus rewards

[median thorn]

U can always add me and I can play with u

[lime token]

Wait ur cooking

[loud lily]

Well i cannot vc most of the time since im playing in my HQ 😭

[median thorn]

What I can do is talk to u while u listen to me. U also want to be playing on amateur while ur just starting. I use a guide sheet that was given to me as well. It seriously helps me learn the game

[loud lily]

I play on amateur but still scary

ik i got a 5 min start but when i hear smth my brain skips that stage and i just quit

[median thorn]

It really takes a while to get used to the game. Just never play it at 1am

[loud lily]

My job ends at 4 am sometimes 7 am

But every day at 4

[median thorn]

Might want to wait till later when u get rest. The game can be a little difficult to play at night. It makes my brain do weird things too

[loud lily]

im not tired im really used to working till 4 am

My job starts at 9 am and ends at 4

[median thorn]

It will take some good amount of time to get used to the game honestly. I didn’t start soloing it till a few days ago

[loud lily]

Yeah same i always spam my friends but they are at work to sometimes don't anwser

[median thorn]

I had back to back deogens one day. Let’s just say I got really scared

[loud lily]

And some of my friends cannot escape me since they are working for me

[loud lily]

lol

[median thorn]

I usually cannot get perfect games on my own but I got good at guessing what it was

[loud lily]

im horrible at guessing

[median thorn]

Takes a good amount of time, patience, and learning

[loud lily]

And i call the salt 3rd tear the bottle "vodka"

[loud lily]

Ohh yeah especially the new equipment

[median thorn]

Took me a while to understand the new stuff too

[loud lily]

Yup

Btw how old are you?

[median thorn]

34

[loud lily]

Damnn

Wait do you have a job?

[opaque oasis]

i can hear an alarm in tanglewood drive

[median thorn]

An alarm?

[zinc coyote]

Car alarm?

[opaque oasis]

yeah

[wise oyster]

the car, grab the keys in the bowl by the entrance so you can turn it off

[zinc coyote]

^

[opaque oasis]

ah k

im so scared in this game why did i get it

[zinc coyote]

Just dont be scared, duh

[opaque oasis]

ah sorry

[prisma laurel]

Drive the car

[loud lily]

Wanna play a match?

[opaque oasis]

i need some music in the backgrounf

[lime token]

Once the fear factor of the game goes away, it becomes really fun!

[wise oyster]

I can't do music in Phas. The sounds are so important.

Unless I'm on 3ev or something maybe

[lime token]

I'm always listening to something

[zinc coyote]

I'll often listen to music while playing but I might pause during a hunt

[lime token]

(or watching)

[loud lily]

I sometimes listen to like non loud sounds mostly study songs that make you relax or sum

[zinc coyote]

Looping to some music is fun

[native breach]

Where does one report bugs i dont see a channel for it

[loud lily]

Playing the song "Monster" While looping a Demon across a coffe table

[wise oyster]

#bug-reports

[median thorn]

Ceerek I’m barely waking up lol

[prisma laurel]

Revenant speed

[lime token]

Scary

Let's not forget about the metronome that nearly gave me a migraine!

[willow rain]

I love how the menu mouse-over sounds still play even if the Phas window isn't in focus

[opaque oasis]

why did i get a horror game omg

[lime token]

I don't think there's sound when hovering over something with a mouse

[zinc coyote]

Skillet? Kanye? Or Meg & Dia

[opaque oasis]

tested it rn anad theres nothing

oh nvm

in equipment

[loud lily]

Skillet

[zinc coyote]

Good choice

[loud lily]

Thanks

Hey, does anyone have experience with accidentally joining a cheater lobby and leaving right after you notice it? Even if the cheater tried to give you XP? Has anyone dealt with that before? Could it be a problem ?

[pine delta]

how does investigation bonus work?

[vagrant palm]

i would report it if you can

[torn rover]

Yeah, I hope it does not affect my account

Because it wasnt my intention

[dusk tapir]

I've seen like two cheaters and reported both

[warm dock]

yall dont believe what just happend

[topaz star]

Should be fine since it wasn't ur fault, just move on

[torn rover]

Oke thanks guys

[topaz star]

Died to a Deo?

[dusk tapir]

And those booster lobbies are also cheaters, right? Everyday I log on and see at least 3 booster lobbies

[gritty dove]

You won't be punished for accidentally running into a cheater. You can just report and go your merry way. Don't worry

[gritty dove]

Yeah, pretty much always

[topaz star]

$2 prestige 1000% YES

[torn rover]

Thanks 👌🏽

[dusk tapir]

Should I join just to report and leave then?

It's lwk ridiculous

[gritty dove]

I mean you can, we don't ask people to join specifically to report

[topaz star]

I would on all of em

[dusk tapir]

Mm mk

So you dont think it affects to my acc ?

[willow rain]

Sweet

[topaz star]

Dude don't worry about it, report and move on

[torn rover]

Ok 😂

[gritty dove]

If it was an accident and you didn't knowingly let a cheater boost you, noope

Kinetic Games understands this happens, I'm sure

[topaz star]

I report u for being too awesome

[gritty dove]

No u!

[topaz star]

[willow rain]

Especially if you're up front about it and tell someone your account got put up illegitimately, only a cheater would try to hide it or not report it

[willow rain]

Lmfao

I have another legitimate reason to have spirit box be my last resort: goddamn Moroi

[calm hare]

Hey does anyone here play on ps vr 2?

I need help with something I don't wanna have to pay for insurance to get it fixed hopefully someone can help me DM me if u have one and you think you can help

Oh I gotchu if u tryna play

My vr may quit working but I'm a console main anyways

I'll give you the room code let me load up rq

[trim juniper]

no the ones that have uv can

[merry flare]

Has anyone been experiencing an EMF 4 with no corresponding event recently? If it was one off I'd assume I missed it but this week I've had several on varying maps and ghosts.

[zinc coyote]

Could have been a very short event

[merry flare]

That makes sense, I've had a lot more of those recently too. I don't get to play much anymore because my gaming partner has a spawn to take care of so I'm probably just noticing it more this week since we've had so much play time 🙂

[zinc coyote]

Yeah, if you get too close to the ghost the event ends, so it could just be that

[merry flare]

Is that only moving toward the ghost? Or does it also end if the ghost was dumb enough to event on top of you?

[zinc coyote]

Both, but im not sure if they have a set distance they can event from or not

[merry flare]

I think I remember something from forever ago where if it's within 20 meters its event will teleport to the targeted player but that's about it.

That makes sense though. Sis has been wanting to play the new diner so I've spent half my play time this week in that tiny cooler room. 😛

[rugged tundra]

how can i see the progress of updates?

there was a website i think

[zinc coyote]

-trello

[prime elk]

Kinetic Games has a Trello Board! There you can see potential upcoming updates, features, and fixes. You can find the Trello @ https://trello.com/b/9QrnqQ1j/phasmophobia.

[torpid granite]

Glad to hear that from a fellow asian too

[rugged tundra]

this game has no anti cheat?

[rugged tundra]

[zinc coyote]

Why you wanna know lol

[rugged tundra]

cuz its been out for 5y

im surprised they dont

[zinc coyote]

Cheaters do get banned

[atomic leaf]

they're working on one

[rugged tundra]

still no anti cheat is crazy

yea i saw

my goat justly replied to me

[trim carbon]

I know this may seem silly to ask but do you guys maybe have any tips on how to like feel less scared when playing. im always stressed out that the ghost will hunt if i stop moving for even a second which ends up in me jumping into conclusions about what the ghost is and finishing the game way earlier than i should’ve.. and i like want some tips on how to maybe ease up make hunts seem less scary

[rugged tundra]

check your sanity most ghost hunts below 50%

[zinc coyote]

Playing with someone might help, but just getting used to it helps to be less scared

[rugged tundra]

get a hiding spot ready before investigating the place

[zinc coyote]

^

[rugged tundra]

check how many seconds grace period you got so youll know how many secs you got before ghost starts moving

[zinc coyote]

Bully the ghost

[rugged tundra]

put a crucifix in the ghost room

[merry flare]

One of the biggest things that helped my sister was actually doing the challenges. Since the game provides a loadout you can intentionally go in and mess about almost with the intention of dying but there's no penalty because you don't lose money. Neither of us were particularly worried about losing progress but something about the "officialness" of not losing anything doing a weekly really got us trying things and messing about more.

[rugged tundra]

once yk how the ghost moves you wont get scared much

[native canopy]

This is the way

[trim carbon]

I remember playing with my bf recently (we’re both like low level) and the cursed object was tarot cards and he just went out of the house and randomly just got the desth card and surprisingly despite the ghost being almost up in my face i actually did it ran off and survived)the ghost was a moroi)(my bf then died twice lol)(i mean i died too cause the closet was open but yk) and i think that did work wonders for me

[native canopy]

Also know that you can play the challenge mode loadout on any map!

[trim carbon]

I wanna thank you all for your tips cause i was genuinely consuming content for MONTHS before buying the game and now i also wanna enjoy the full experience so thank you all

[rugged tundra]

just always get a hiding spot ready

enjoy

[zinc coyote]

Just have fun with it, over time itll become less scary

[rugged tundra]

i rmb my first game i left the game as soon as it hunted

[merry flare]

This 😄

[trim carbon]

Nah dw i once quit cause i couldn’t open the breaker

[native canopy]

Thats real hah

[trim carbon]

And i got laughed at cause i struggled to open the front door after a hunt by my bf(acting like he isn’the one that always dies)

[zinc coyote]

I'm too desensitized to horror in general so I just run in ready to swing on the ghost

[barren warren]

am i using the ouija board wrong? im talking into the mic and it hasnt moved once

[zinc coyote]

What are you asking it?

[barren warren]

this has been a persistent issue, im just tryna get it to work, so im just asking anything ik it will respond to

[rugged tundra]

how are people asking like "am i pretty" yk those unique questions

[trim carbon]

How many pickles?

[rugged tundra]

that too bro

[barren warren]

oh this has been persistent with the paw too

[lime token]

The voice recognition thinks ur saying something else

[rugged tundra]

you cant just ask anything btw for the paw

[rugged tundra]

ohh

[trim carbon]

Remember when you wish for knowledge the ghost restores your sanity to full and marks itself in the journal

[lime token]

Fun fact: saying "I wish for anything" gives you a random unused wish

[native canopy]

Is ouija still bugged with numbers related questions?

[lime token]

Yup

[rugged tundra]

yea that

[native canopy]

Guh

[rugged tundra]

i wonder what the horror 2.0 is

[lime token]

New ghost models
New death animations
Hallucinations
Etc

[lament gulch]

All it will be is the removal of Demon (screw demons)

[rugged tundra]

i hope they add jumpscares

[lime token]

Mare removal update when?

[haughty hollow]

no goryo is worse than mare fr

[rugged tundra]

real

[lime token]

Goryos are the best ><

[lament gulch]

This is when I believe AI would be good for a game

It would be perfect for an AI to be able to answer most questions

[haughty hollow]

goryos stink like uhhhh ectoplasm or something idk

[lament gulch]

I like Mares

[rugged tundra]

mare is worse

[haughty hollow]

ur scary

[wise oyster]

They will not

[rugged tundra]

damn unfortunately

[lime token]

I just wish its ability was more common tbh

[rugged tundra]

or only hunts at dark

[haughty hollow]

they need to give goryo some ability bcyes

[trim carbon]

Honestly i don’t have any hated ghost for now but my bf has a one sided beef with Onryo’s cause he got three in a row

[calm hare]

Lol

[lime token]

Jumpscares wouldn't fit this game, they're lazy, cheap and not the atmospheric horror the devs are trying to achieve

[lament gulch]

I had 3 Jinns in a row the other day

[rugged tundra]

in 0 evidence ghosts mostly change room

[rugged tundra]

ohh

[haughty hollow]

micro transactions when

[lament gulch]

They need to give Spirit an ability imo

[wise oyster]

Spirit's not exciting, but it's alright

[lament gulch]

Spirit is one of the hardest in 0 evi

[wise oyster]

It's really not

[lime token]

It's annoying to ID but defo nowhere near the hardest

[rugged tundra]

...

[trim carbon]

Honestly i pick fave ghosts based on the names cause like hell yeah Moroi and Thaye are banging

[dense sapphire]

Jump scares wouldn't fit here?? I get jump scared by the damn D.O.T projector...... The hell you mean??? 😂😂😂

[rugged tundra]

are we serious

[lament gulch]

It's hard to prove a spirit just because sometimes ghost just dont wanna hunt

[rugged tundra]

what do you how the devs pronounce thaye

[wise oyster]

The "jumpscares" in the game are natural and organic, not scripted on purpose

[trim carbon]

Yeah i do

[dense sapphire]

Yep

[haughty hollow]

omg i love thayes i they are so cool and i like them and thei're also ez to identify

[rugged tundra]

in 0 evidence its easy to get hunted😭

[lament gulch]

Scripted jump scares are boring

[haughty hollow]

peak english btw

[barren warren]

im about to fucking lose it why isnt the game picking up my mic

[dense sapphire]

I like deo's

[lament gulch]

I had a 0 san/evi game and it took 3 minuters to start 1 hunt

[rugged tundra]

thats bad rng

[lime token]

Deos are good to get but holy it's a snooze fest lol

[rugged tundra]

most of the time max is 1min

[trim carbon]

Idk why but the male ghost models look so goofy to me for some reason

[rugged tundra]

at least they dont crawl

[lament gulch]

Deos are scary when you dont know its a deo

[lime token]

They are unity assets so maybe the goofiness will be gone once they get reworked

[dense sapphire]

Yeah it's really fun when you have them all the way across the map and you hear it but you can't see it and all of the sudden you have a deo in your face.

[rugged tundra]

i want them to keep patient 07 bending backwards

[dense sapphire]

I be pulling the Michael Jackson on that damn deo walking backwards with it following me.

[trim carbon]

Genuinely thought the ghost was a demon once cause when i went with my bro into the house he died right away and i thought the demon hunted(it was a Yurei(idk what he did to achieve that maybe pulled the hanged man idk)

[south laurel]

And I would guess that all the ghost would then have a 2 emf with fusebox interaction... it still has no line of sight acceleration, right?

[alpine flower]

Bro pinged me more than 24 hours later. But no, apparently the EMF reading on the breaker comes from its sanity drain ability, which it cannot do if breaker is off.

So yeah, 0 tells. @south laurel

[sterile crag]

on the new map whats the normal temperature in cooler room and storage room?

[open scarab]

Add a picture of Gordon Ramsay to Tanglewood 🙏🙏🙏

[alpine flower]

Just apply the rules for outdoor rooms with snowy weather i.e. If temp doesn't drop below 5C, it's probably not the ghost room

[lament wing]

Quick question: Can there be a Ghost Orb ghost on this weeky challenge?

Wanted to know if I've simply been getting lucky since I've gotten Myling and Hantu so far, neither of which can produce dem Orbies

[fickle quarry]

Just had a ghost kill me after i just placed a crucifix in their room?!?!

[fickle quarry]

I placed it down, left and got killed anyway

[solemn stream]

Ghosts can hunt from a room that isn’t the ghost room. It’s quite common

[fickle quarry]

Oh ok

[solemn stream]

The crucifix also has a range, and if the room isn’t 100% covered it can still hunt from the ghost room

[lilac mason]

I think so? I lowkey can’t remember what ghosts I got when I did it but I know there was at least one that I struggled to get evidence with and had to do a hunt to confirm

[prisma laurel]

Always have a teammate so you can check orbs with headgear

[lilac mason]

Also Hantu does produce orbs

[lament wing]

Oh, nvm. Yeah, sorry.

[alpine flower]

It's 3 evidence. Are you making sure you're turning on night vision mode on the camera? Or if you're in the right room?

[lilac mason]

It’s the weekly challenge so there is no camera

[alpine flower]

Oh right

[lament wing]

Alright, cleared final run

[alpine flower]

If you're playing with someone, they probably fucked you over with a cursed object

[vestal ferry]

Tier 1 headcam. Someone from van can watch and look for orbs.

[lament wing]

It was a Shade and it didn't do shit for a long time, then suddenly it starts writing while I'm not in the room and EMF 5 was found at the writing.

[lilac mason]

Ohh that’s neat. I did it solo but that’s a cool bypass

[vestal ferry]

Sounds exactly like a shade.

[solemn stream]

I am not the one who was asking fyi

[alpine flower]

Oh shit that's cool as hell and right on time. My mates and I are going to play this weekend

[lament wing]

Is it just me or is like half the ghosts annoying to find on no evidence? I'm used to playing with evidence, this week I tried 0 evidence for the first time.

[last drift]

Yes and 3 require you eliminate all 21 others first

[alpine flower]

Woops @fickle quarry

[lament wing]

There's so many tests you need to run if the hunt speed doesn't immediately give it away or if it's not a Demon.

[lilac mason]

Boy do I love Goryo 😭

[last drift]

Check for orbs, then make it hunt and eliminate speeds. Then guess based on behaviors and abilities that remain

[vestal ferry]

Just remember there is different versions of no evidence.
Can play with sanity and sanity monitor and it'll help a lot on determining ghost. Simply due to hunt thresholds and such

[lament wing]

I have trouble identifying Oni, I always end up thinking twice when the ghost looks to be blinking slightly faster than usual, and then it's not even an Oni

[alpine flower]

Mares are more annoying for me. I play on high room change chance just to get rid of Goryos easier

[lilac mason]

That’s a good shout actually

I like to play insanity and if I have no idea after 30 minutes I guess goryo and leave

[lament wing]

I mean, I tried Nightmare but on 0 evidence and both monitors on to help me gauge which ghost it probably is.

[gritty edge]

Mares will be the death of me I hate them so much

[vestal ferry]

Hardest challenge though.
0sanity 0 evidence.
Friendly ghost
No room change
Low activity and low roaming
Low ghost events
No cursed objects.
Broken breaker

[lilac mason]

All that and it’s a Jinn

[alpine flower]

Better flcik on the light switch repeatedly like an idiot until the motion sensor signals it's near you and hope it fucking interacts with it

Oh wait no here comes the hunt, better run and do it all over again

[vestal ferry]

better hope it long roams and its noticeable to rule out goryo

[lament wing]

That's not even possible to do, I think. Not consistently, anyway.

[vestal ferry]

[river aurora]

Need someone that can do apocalypse challenge 3 for me i play on Playstation 5 so i can start share play

[opaque oasis]

can heartbeat noise occur outside of hunt

[vestal ferry]

Ghost events

[opaque oasis]

ah

it was an activity level of 10 though

[vestal ferry]

Doesnt change that

Lots of things can make the board go to 10

[opaque oasis]

ah ok i panicked

[zinc coyote]

[lament wing]

How many glowsticks have you eaten so far?

[zinc coyote]

In total or just today?

[lament wing]

Both

[zinc coyote]

Over a 1000 probably, today, none yet. Haven't played

[tame raft]

I need help connecting my vr to my steam I tried but it’s been a while

[inner forge]

Why are we eating 1000 glow sticks

[zinc coyote]

They're yummy

[inner forge]

I can understand around 3 max
But like anymore it’s a bit odd

[zinc coyote]

Which vr headset are you using?

[inner forge]

Can confirm this is not true

[inner forge]

It tastes like chemicals

[tame raft]

The meta quest 3s

[inner forge]

I imagine that’s what bleach tastes like

#game-announcements oml out of everything they pick the worst console

Nintendo of all things

[gritty veldt]

The fact you can confirm this is...
Concerning

[inner forge]

I was a child once

[tame raft]

Nintendo isn’t bad it’s good

[inner forge]

I used the glow stick as lipstick for a teddy bear

[zinc coyote]

Pretty sure you just do the link thing and launch in steam vr

[inner forge]

Whatever you need to tell yourself

[molten gorge]

Hello guys

[tame raft]

It didn’t look vr when I hopped into the game tho it was just playing pc version

[zinc coyote]

I accidentally got some glowstick fluid in my mouth as a kid once

[zinc coyote]

You need to launch it in Vr mode not desktop mode

[inner forge]

I didn’t accidentally do it, I was special

[gritty veldt]

Fair

[tame raft]

I did

[zinc coyote]

I don't use a quest so it might be different, id watch a video to explain it better

[opaque oasis]

im in amateur mode and this hunt is several mins i swear what ghost could it be

[inner forge]

I couldnt do vr with the quest 2

Idk about 3

[zinc coyote]

Should be the same

[inner forge]

It was outdated and couldn’t handle it I mean I could try it just wouldn’t work

[zinc coyote]

Are you in steam vr?

[inner forge]

I did use steam vr yes

[tame raft]

I think they broke it

[opaque oasis]

guys

what ghosts have differing speeds and spirit box

[zinc coyote]

Shouldnt be any different, just load up steam vr, hit play on phas and launch in one of the vr modes

[zinc coyote]

A few of them

How different of a speed are we talking?

[opaque oasis]

uh not sure

ive been hiding in the stall for several mins and i can still occassionally hear the footsteps so i think its glitched

[zinc coyote]

Its changing from fast to slow mid hunt?

[opaque oasis]

its raspy breath as well

[opaque oasis]

fast to medium

genuinely hunts almost 10 mins

[tame raft]

Twins?

[maiden spindle]

Deogen

It’s the only thing with raspy breath

[opaque oasis]

deogen?

[maiden spindle]

And it slows mid hunt when it gets close is best guess

Yes

Raspy breath from spirit box is unique to deogen

[opaque oasis]

no during hunt raspy breath

i mean it was kinda raspy during spirit

[maiden spindle]

Probably still deogen. Does it get slower the closer it is to you

[opaque oasis]

uh not sure about it

[zinc coyote]

If youre hiding and it never found you its not a deo

[zinc coyote]

What evidence do you have?

[opaque oasis]

ok im out

[maiden spindle]

Oh true

[opaque oasis]

its weird cause my friend did spirit box and he said he got no response but while i was messing around with atm i DEFINITELY heard die and hello in the distance

[tame raft]

It won’t let me open the vr option

I just see my desktop

[last drift]

Did you install steamlink

[opaque oasis]

we said oni turns out to be twins i was right

[last drift]

Also, check launch options

[fierce vector]

If you are directly next to the ghost and you press the text on spirit box, is it guaranteed to reply if spirit box is one of its evidences?

[last drift]

No

It's a random rng value whether it will reply or not.But with enough questions , it will eventually reply

[tame raft]

Yes

[fierce vector]

Thank you

[last drift]

Check launch options In steam, try launching via steam link in vr

[bright kayak]

Guys will Phasmophobia for NS2 have like the mouse function? Cuz it would be a lot more comfy

[tame raft]

On steam?

[last drift]

No it'll be controller based unless they install mnk to consoles

[fierce vector]

If two rooms that are connected are the same temperature, are they one room and how do i tell them apart if it is one of them?

[last drift]

Go to your PC and in steam right.Click and check your launch options on the title phasmophobia

Also in vr open steam link and launch phasmo

[bright kayak]

Hope they'll add it 🙏

[tame raft]

It looks like the desktop version tho idk why

[last drift]

If you can connect a mnk to switch 2 and they add mnk to consoles yes.

[last drift]

You're\nIgnoring what i'm saying , so i'm gonna try one more time.

Right , click the title and look at the launch options

[calm hare]

I guess I'll be playing phas

On console again 😔

[bright kayak]

I mean with Switch 2 you can just use the joy con as a mouse, you don't really need external devices

[tame raft]

There’s 3 options

[last drift]

So... using the thumbstick to look around and as a cursor.

Like a controller.

[bright kayak]

Nop, you take the joy con on a table and move it like a mouse

[last drift]

They question was are they adding mouse and keyboard support

[last drift]

Oh

[last drift]

That's neat actually

[opaque oasis]

2 events within a few seconds what ghost

[bright kayak]

Yup, I use it on Cyberpunk 2077, it's kinda useful

[last drift]

One of 24

[bright kayak]

It would be on Phasmophobia too

[last drift]

Literally any.

[opaque oasis]

thanks but surely they have a cooldown

[last drift]

If they did the cheat sheet would have a thing for it

My initial reaction wojld ve twins or oni but I need evidences

[opaque oasis]

wheres the cheat sheet again

[last drift]

Pinned in #fan-creations

[opaque oasis]

yeah we thought oni

[tame raft]

Do I need remote play on vr?

[last drift]

You need sticks or something yes

[opaque oasis]

think it might be a shade

[night pagoda]

i need i gy to help me wiot my neww acc dm me

[cobalt cliff]

in bleasdale without a ghost rn lmao

foyer is 1 degree, forced a hunt with voodoo, lights blinking but no ghost

[opaque oasis]

yeah it was an oni omg

[opaque oasis]

omg what

[solid fog]

Being new to phas is fun 😑

[zinc coyote]

[prisma laurel]

Become #1 pro

👀

[solid fog]

💀

[zinc coyote]

Thats me

[tame raft]

Can you help me improve?

[modern mauve]

Don't die - best advice

[tame raft]

that doesnt help

[zinc coyote]

Sending my skill via magic

[modern mauve]

For real, just learning how all of the ghosts tick is a big part of improving

[zinc coyote]

The cheat sheet is a great tool to learn more too

[opaque oasis]

last question

whats a ghost with dots and orbs that seems really tame

[frail wharf]

You know what a creepy abandoned church map on the scale of bleasdale would be cool

I mean I know sunny meadows has a chapel room but like a full scale run down church

The chapel room is cool af

With an outdoor grave yard as well

[chilly condor]

When does. The winters jest come out

[zinc coyote]

16th

[chilly condor]

Thanks

[tame raft]

@zinc coyote is it possible to do the 25% average sanity on apoc 3

[zinc coyote]

You start at zero sanity

[south laurel]

Yeah, it was where my feed left off... so I scroll thru...

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.

[native canopy]

I hear that

[south violet]

So what’s the Next content Update that is planned? Did they already Tease anything?

[south laurel]

that one is a gimme, just like, take photo of the ghost or smudge ghost while chasing and cleanse area near ghost

[zinc coyote]

Christmas update on the 16th

[south laurel]

I do read the feed that happened while I was away, you guys matter to me...LOL

[native canopy]

Thats quite sweet of you to say

[south violet]

Nice thanks for answering!

[south laurel]

Phasmo is one of the games that I have been passionate about since it came out... and even after all these years I am still learning new things

[zinc coyote]

No prob. Its in #game-announcements if you wanna take a look

[south violet]

Oh yeah you’re right, don’t know why I didn’t get any notifications. Thanks again!

[south laurel]

have you ever wondered what the games would be like if they went to the full 35 ghosts possible with the current evidence possibilities... I think we would be fried...

When is the winters jest event?

Thought it was today?

[echo musk]

December 16th, 2025 at 12PM GMT and will run until January 6th, 2026, also ending at 12PM GMT.

[main meadow]

A Friday hell naw.
They need to be working to fix shit

Tuesday (time zone depending) is a good day even if it clashes with Lord Gaben and his day.

[echo musk]

shrugs it's what their announcement says.

[south violet]

Where has it been announced?

Ive seen the trailer but no exact date?

[echo musk]

#game-announcements has a post with the link to KG blog. that's where it is

[south violet]

Just seen it, Thnx

[rapid ridge]

the steam comments under the switch 2 announcement are brutal

[south laurel]

But i would not mind the switch 2...

[gritty dove]

It's steam. Steam forums are always a mess

[rapid ridge]

Fair enough

[gritty dove]

I don't know why people just tend to act terribly there

[modern mauve]

Mostly ignorance

[lament wing]

Hantu's forced evidence is Freezing, right?

[mental slate]

does Hantu have a forced evidence?

[modern mauve]

Yep

[main meadow]

If you have at least one evidence in the settings.

[echo musk]

2, 1, or 0 is the forced evidence mechanic.

[magic tiger]

U can't get evidence in 0 tho. 🤔

[echo musk]

"nightmare or fewer" is the terms used. take it as you will.

[zinc coyote]

Unless mimic orbs but that doesnt count as evidence really

[gritty dove]

Regardless of the terms used, you don't get evidence at all in 0 evidence, that is correct

Mimic orbs are not evidence

[topaz star]

FAKER GHOST

[last drift]

If only they had a Twitter or discord to communicate this information. Guess we have to watch reddit and steam forums.

[echo musk]

reddit and steam. I'll stick with 'waiting' on twitter and discord updates lol.

[last drift]

I'd definitely post it to my Twitter. I'd even open a #game-announcements channel to post stuff.

[magic tiger]

Alright Shadow the hedgehog

[topaz star]

lol

[robust fjord]

Is the new holiday update out?! How is it?

[jolly heron]

slimer slimed me

#game-announcements

[robust fjord]

Yes but I also saw shit about it coming out on the 12th.,,

So which one is it?

[wise oyster]

which do you think?

[echo musk]

December 16th, 2025 at 12PM GMT and will run until January 6th, 2026, also ending at 12PM GMT.

[wise oyster]

the random thing you saw online or the official announcement?

[zinc coyote]

[prisma laurel]

Yeah bro just got the holiday update rn tryna get the new badge 😭

[south laurel]

I saw the fellow investigator kissin Krampus, as he decked him all around the Halls.... there was no place for them to hide, it gave me quite a fright....

[magic tiger]

Horror 2.0 should add Eyes that watches you during the hallucinations

[south laurel]

The best hallucinations I have experience in a game was GreenHELL, but that would be a cool Ghost Strength

[mild dust]

does anyone else feel excited about the return of blood moon and winter jest bc of the trailer for them

because i certainly do

[south laurel]

I like it, and I will enjoy it

[mild dust]

crimson eye trailer was amazing

and the trailer for the winter jest p2 makes it exciting to play again

idk why they never did trailers in the past for events

bc these trailers are very exhilarating

[native canopy]

Can you see orbs through t1 headgear?

[south laurel]

No, only thru Nite Vision on the video cam

[native canopy]

darn

thank you

[south laurel]

oh wait... yes if you are in the van

T1 is a video camera but if you are solo it will not work

[native canopy]

yes im in the van :)

duo is in the house

[south laurel]

that works

[native canopy]

awesome ty

[south laurel]

i play solo to much

Same rule applies though night vision on, and have them check every corner slowly

[native canopy]

it was ghost orbs! :D

[south laurel]

Now it can always be a mimic if you are not careful but that is only if you are dealing with what looks like a hantu...

Inside joke for a lot of people is they see ghost orb, "its a mimic"

[tiny coral]

can you still hide on the default location (behind the small closet) in childs room on tanglewood drive

[tacit pivot]

pretty sure

[south laurel]

the changing table? yes

99% effective

[willow rain]

ANOTHER JINN THAT TURNED OFF THE BREAKER FUCK JINNS

[wise oyster]

You or the ghost are turning on too many lights. Jinn can't turn the breaker off.

[willow rain]

STUPID BROKEN GLITCHY GHOSTS

[willow rain]

There were only a few lights on

[wise oyster]

The ghost isn't broken

[untold siren]

is the christmas event going on yrt

[vestal ferry]

Check pins

[tropic niche]

Yep this, I’ve played so many hours of this game and a Jinn has never turned off the breaker

[sterile sedge]

i added you on discord

[vestal ferry]

It doesnt take that many lights to trip breaker. And jinn can turn on enough very easily.
When you turn breaker back on, youll see if lights were left on or off. If on then it was ghost turning it off. If lights off means lights were tripped.

[tropic niche]

Especially on large maps!

[south laurel]

that is a good point if you are right near the limit for tripping the breaker the jinn turns on one more light and makes it look like it tripped the breaker...

[tropic niche]

In my mind when I first played I thought bigger map = more lights and boy was I wrong lol

[south laurel]

I did see one game Lisa posted on Youtube, were the jinn tripped the breaker before they even enter the house...

[wise oyster]

I still don't get that

[vestal ferry]

Breaker starts off for most things

[south laurel]

Bigger Map = More difficulty...

[tropic niche]

Yeah and ghosts aren’t active before you open the door

So the Jinn didn’t do anything

[south laurel]

Yeah, but she had the setting to were it was on at the start, the front porch motion light kept going on and off as they staged

I just think it bugged out

[willow rain]

There were several left on

[tropic niche]

Idk the ghosts in my experience don’t glitch like this and I have hundreds and hundreds of hours in the game but if you think this happened I’d genuinely make a report

[south laurel]

I agree, usually it is just me or my party flipped on to many lights... for the most part the ghosts are still very well tooled in... though I do need to test if a smudged Onryo will hunt after blowing out the 3rd firelight

I just want to see which takes the priority

[willow rain]

I hear you can stop an Onryo hunt by lighting a candle, is this true?

[dreamy magnet]

I’ve never heard that no

I mean mid hunt no

[south laurel]

well it cannot hunt till the candles are blown out within 4 m... so if you have a lit candle in the same location than yes

this is only before the hunt

[dreamy magnet]

Egg Zach Lee

[crimson cape]

And if you are holding a lit firefight, the Onryo can fail a hunt check by blowing it out

[south laurel]

if it is within 4 meters of the location it tries to hunt

[vestal ferry]

It acts like a cruci

[south laurel]

and the dreading Cruci tier 3 and candle light test fail, always kills me

[sturdy coyote]

does anyone in lfg still help people level up with x13

[south laurel]

best bet is to ask in #lfg-eu

or the repective region

[dreamy magnet]

x13 is too crazy bro

Too slow

[south laurel]

I need to see the 13 x possible settings, I am sure there is a way to crush it on willow

[dreamy magnet]

Which map would u guys live, I would live at Ridgeview cuz it’s snazzy

[zinc coyote]

Willow

[sturdy coyote]

nah the players with lots of knowledge just go in wait for hunt then circle picnic bench in woodwind to see speed and ability

[lime token]

I use 14.47x on woodwind, but i dont loop

Not much point tbh

[south laurel]

that makes sense

[crimson cape]

Willow if they renovate the closets to have doors

[sturdy coyote]

u fancy leveling me up

[lime token]

Bleasdale

[wise oyster]

u fancy Geo

[south laurel]

everyone fancies GEO

[sturdy coyote]

im swapped to pc and have no one to level up with and hate playiung myself with t1

[south laurel]

I am partial ot Blesdale

[native canopy]

whats the lowest the nells cold room goes before being ghost room (breaker on vs off?)

[south laurel]

I would say the fridge and freezer

[native canopy]

i am asking for the temperature

[wise oyster]

It's 1C breaker on

[native canopy]

thank you!

[south laurel]

That

[wise oyster]

And if the breaker starts off, it's weather temp. If it's cooled, then breaker is turned off, it goes to like 1/3 of the weather temp or something like that

[crimson cape]

Would you push the button?

You get to live in a Phasmophobia map of your choosing for free with a high paying job a mere five minutes of driving away, BUT you have a phasmophobia ghost haunting it with max activity and friendly ghost enabled

[dreamy magnet]

But what if u can’t renovate that 1920s ahh interior

[wise oyster]

I have to have a job?

[south laurel]

My back says no...

[crimson cape]

High paying and, uh,

hasty scribbling noises

Part time!!

[lime token]

Its a very cozy interior tho :3

[south laurel]

wait are we playing DND and the DM just had his story trashed by the players

[prisma laurel]

[last drift]

this is phas chat

[south laurel]

I know.. it is

[topaz star]

Phasmo related only

[south laurel]

It was a comment to the scribbls

it was related

[odd vale]

It’s fine. If it goes off to an another topic continuing then it can be redirected. Not just a single reply to something.

[south laurel]

NP, I do my best to keep on topic, I know the pains of mods

What is the %chance of completing DoomSlayer right now?

[sly nova]

Can a dead player see goryo dots through cams ?

[south laurel]

I think a dead player cannot see the monitor... so in my experience no, but I could be wrong

[sly nova]

They can

[south laurel]

then as long as the monitor is visible then they should be able to... I said the prior because it always looks white out when I play with others and I am dead

at least that was the case way back before the latest updates, so a year ago

[sly nova]

The white is when night vision mode is activated on cams

Other wise it looks fine

[south laurel]

dots should show up, but I can only say I will test later when I have a team and a goryo

[sly nova]

Kk

[south laurel]

Solo is my standard state so speaking to team play these days is limited

but we use to run dead Van Princess all the time

and Dead Book sage...LOL

[sly nova]

Alr, GL

[prisma laurel]

Lowkey waiting till the holiday update drops so I can grind the trophies

[opaque zealot]

[lime token]

Grindin away

[south laurel]

Same here... I wanna see what Krampus does to me...

[stark granite]

ok I need to know, can you see dots while dead? I thought for the longest time you couldn't because I've never seen them while dead but my living teammates did see them and yesterday I played with a guy who was VERY insistent that you can see dots while dead

ok thanks that's what I thought

[daring jay]

where the hell is FPS settings, cant find it in game or video?

[zinc coyote]

vsync is your only option, or steam launch commands

[daring jay]

i could have sworn theres options up to 240 right?

then its unlimited

[zinc coyote]

Cant remember i never cap my fps

[desert spade]

I have a question! For the Events regarding maps, Do you need to be on a specific multiplier for it? like can you do the maps at 1x or does it have to be at some other multiplier? I don't know how much thought the devs put in this, because all it says is "Identify ghosts on the map" for it to count, so.. I dunno!

[solemn stream]

If you mean the weekly challenge then you have to do it on the challenge mode

[desert spade]

Nonono Not the weekly challenge
The Events that are on Point hope, Maple Lodge/Camp Woodwind, Sunny Meadows, Nells Diner, and the Farm houses
Where you have to identify and survive ghosts 50 times

[solemn stream]

That’s not events. It’s for badges, you can do it on any multiplier (including 0x)

[desert spade]

Ohhhh sorry for the mix-up!
Yeah alright, thanks!

[vivid mulch]

what it is phasma chat

[zinc coyote]

[cobalt matrix]

it is

[vestal ferry]

Vsync just is whatever the monitor is at. So if monitor is 240hz then itll cap there with vsync on.

Off means unlimited.

[calm hare]

[maiden bronze]

is there a bug with phantom not disappearing when taking a picture of it's D.O.T.S. form rn or was my game just being funny?

[tacit pivot]

funny game

[maiden bronze]

alrighty lol

[elfin zenith]

Is the bone glitched on sunny meadows for anyone else? Lol

[south laurel]

always by the left side door?

[elfin zenith]

YES

[south laurel]

Yes

for me anyways

[willow rain]

Is the starter equipment challenge tier-sensitive?

[south laurel]

I do not think so

[elfin zenith]

that's so wild how long has it been like that for you @south laurel

[south laurel]

just needs to be the givens

[south laurel]

For all 7 of my A3 challenge

[elfin zenith]

that's so funny lol

it's been like this for me and my friends for days, if not a week

[south laurel]

Made it easy

[south laurel]

sorry i thought I had reply on but just needs to be the given items not added is what I think

[opaque zealot]

Hello

[frail terrace]

will there be any more achievements dropping in the winters jest update (or whatever its called)?

[odd vale]

Hiya. There are no fixes or tech support for older versions of the game and we don’t allow posts showing how people get them. Thank you.

[opaque zealot]

Xd

[pine delta]

tysm

[zinc coyote]

[livid gale]

what am i doing wrong, just got the game and i cant seem to get the ghost right at all. i just played one and got ultraviolet hand print, ghost orbs and emf reading over 5 so i lock in obake since it was the last one left, but its wrong and was the banshee instead. the mechanics feel so simple but im yet to get a single one right

[zinc coyote]

You likely misinterpreted evidence

[stark dove]

banshee would be dots so you didnt get emf5

[zinc coyote]

^

[livid gale]

i mean the only one i can think of is the emf, cause the camera said ghost orbs and there definitely was a hand print. but with the emf it went way past the halfway point

unless im just stupid idk

[elfin zenith]

the emf reader needs to go past the 5

[zinc coyote]

Tier one emf I'm guessing?

[vestal ferry]

Has to go into the red, past the 5.

Also not during ghost event or hunt

[zinc coyote]

^

[livid gale]

wait yeah im just an idiot then i just looked at it properly nvm then

[zinc coyote]

Happens, just keep an eye out for next time

Tier one emf kinda sucks, itll be easier one you get tier 2

[livid gale]

and for the spirit box, what questions should i be asking the ghost? i just walk around asking "are you here?" but i havent had anything yet im assuming cus the ghost symbol goes red

[livid gale]

yeah im just tryna learn the game atm. ive done like 5 or 6 different runs and havent got it right yet so im just gna focus on making sure the evidence is there

[echo musk]

me currently doing my K-lessons while watching chat

[zinc coyote]

You'll get it eventually, just gotta practice. It because very easy quickly

[zinc coyote]

Me about to knock out from filling my belly with food

[vestal ferry]

I do suggest the training since it has you do the evidences to learn them

[livid gale]

oh i didnt even know there was one ive just gone straight in and messed about lol

[zinc coyote]

Its useful

[livid gale]

i think im kinda getting the hang of it, finally got one right as raiju but only because i didnt see anything with ultra violet, i tried using the dots around where the ghost is interacting but didnt see anything either. i read theres supposed to be a silhouette but im not really sure what its supposed to look like or if its even obvious

[zinc coyote]

It'll basically be a figure walking/ crawling around through the dots

A silhouette of a ghostly figure I guess. Whatever model the ghost it

[willow rain]

Any crucifix will stop a flame-extinguish onryo hunt, right?

[calm hare]

I think so

[cold fox]

hi

[zinc coyote]

Yes

[zinc coyote]

[calm hare]

I was right chat

[willow rain]

Is multiple near-freezing rooms with one freezing room a soft tell for Hantu?

[calm hare]

That's a good question

[echo musk]

so a freezing room is 0.9 C or 32F. anything else is just a cold room it happen to have entered and either is still there or has left (in your case just roaming around)

[opaque zealot]

Play?

[echo musk]

if it stays constantly close to a freeze or the coldest room, that's generally the fave room

hope that helps 😄

[urban plume]

I can! But spanish

@opaque zealot

[echo musk]

-lfg

[prime elk]

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

[willow rain]

Well I know how to play and all, I know coldest room is ghost room, I'm just wondering if Hantu has a higher cold effect on roaming rooms

To be almost freezing

[echo musk]

ok. then you know hantu isn't the only freezing temp ghost. with that said, all ghost make a room cold. temps effects don't change (length of time it takes to make 'freezing' provided the ghost is a freezing evidence ghost). cold is cold. guess i'm the one who don't comprehend what info you want but least i tried to answer. shrugs hope someone else tries and succeeds to your question.

[wise oyster]

no, Hantu is not "colder" than other freezing ghosts, temp changes happen at the same rate

[zinc coyote]

[willow rain]

I mean when the ghost is roaming, the room it's in also gets cold, doesn't it?

[wise oyster]

Yes but not instantly

[frosty tangle]

Is the radius of the T3 firelight and T3 cruci the same or if I wanted to check for onryo with the cruci on top of the lantern does it need to be T2 cruci

Note I know about the 20 second test. I know it's the better test. I just like to do this as well

[stark dove]

5m blowout range and 4m onryo hunt prevention range

t3 cruci is 5m range, t2 is 4m

[frosty tangle]

So T2 is better then

[lime token]

I'd still use t3 any day of the week, the 20 second test is faster and quite consistent

[willow rain]

Shoutout to all the mares who threw because they couldn't handle a little light

[livid gale]

is uv guaranteed when the ghost interacts with an object?

if its a ghost defined by uv evidence

so its not something i should cross out if i dont notice it straight away?

[stuck ember]

correct'

[livid gale]

thanks

[stuck ember]

do the salt trick, if none of the 3 leave marks, cross it out then

the obake has a chance to hide uv

[echo musk]

in salt, it has to step more then once. some will just step once into a salt pile and that's it. doesn't mean no uv, just didn't walk far enough. on the same token, Obake has a 25% chance to not leave a uv mark when interacting.

[livid gale]

oh i dont have salt atm i dont think, only level 5 right now

[echo musk]

if on nightmare or insane, then there is a 'forced' uv for obake. (to be more precise)

[stuck ember]

wait for a door touch or a light switch

[willow rain]

Is twinteraction instant or can the two interactions be slightly off-beat?

[stuck ember]

i still dont know how that works

i only know the slow twin has a smaller activity radius than the fast one

[livid gale]

yeah i normally do before using uv was just wondering if id see it everytime those would happen

[stuck ember]

obake can hide uv, other ghosts with uv are guaranteedd to leave prints

[livid gale]

ah okay thanks

[south laurel]

twins have one short arm about 3 meters and one long arm about 16m

[livid gale]

what are some tips for finding a mimic also? i had one earlier and thought it was something completely different. do i just need to double check all evidence or something and find the odd one out?

[south laurel]

so and they all interaction are on the same floor never on seperate floors from what I have seen

Mimic would have ghost orbs as fake evidence so if you have 3 evidence you will get UV, Freezing and Spirit box

[livid gale]

oh is it always ghost orbs as fake?

[south laurel]

Yes

[livid gale]

that makes it alot easier then thanks

[south laurel]

it is an ability not evidence

[stuck ember]

mimic forcedd evidence is ghost orbs, which is one additional evidence than the ones your difficulty has

[south laurel]

it makes 0 evidence challenge easy if it is a mimic

[pine delta]

why do people even use tier 2 incense when tier 1 is subjectively better

[willow rain]

Stairs

I warned you about stairs bro

I told you dog

[stuck ember]

i can see why people would want to use t2 smudge

but why t1?

[rugged tundra]

yea lol

[echo musk]

longer timer (more chance of success), bigger range

[mossy mason]

t3 incense goated

[south violet]

yoo i finally got all t3 items again

been a little less active on phasmo recently 😅

[south laurel]

the incense is definitely a situational Item, in A3 challenge teir one can be safer to use except with a revenant.

[echo musk]

so you want it closer and more likely to kill you before the smudge can take effect? ok. 🙂 beauty of a game, play it your way long as you having fun

[south laurel]

My experience is with a tier one the ghost usually walks off further away than where I am limping along for 5 sec rather than slowing it down or stopping it, give me a little extra time to break line of sight

again only in A3

but yeah it gets closer, so timing is usuall a good thing to have when it is charging at you

[gloomy wolf]

gang i’m annoyed 😆

Trying apoc 3, had a rev (guessed correctly) did 2/3 of the objectives and managed to get a ghost photo

then died :((

[glacial stag]

oof

[gloomy wolf]

big oofs

[south laurel]

that is rough... been there

[gloomy wolf]

it was right in the walkway behind the desk, the one by the wheelchair
