phasmo-chat

[dry marten]

so the game has taken my money to buy that necklace, and its not unlocked ffs

that really makes me pissed off, I mean whats the point in the customization thing if it doesn't work

[covert barn]

really hoping for a decent bugfix patch later today...

[hushed osprey]

My favorite kick story was the time I first started playing. Lil ol innocent me joined a like 11x lobby or something crazy. Host was like "stand in the truck and watch the emf". OK. Done. Nothing happened. He did all his little loops and determined what he thought the ghost was... and when we left and he was wrong, it was MY fault because....and I quote... || "girls are literally only good for making me my meals, and I bet yours wouldn't even be worth chewing"|| then kicked.

[dry marten]

and you have to submit a damn bug report and all that and I got no response saying "we're working on it" or anything. So what, I just lost my ingame money for nothing?

[sacred shell]

hell nahh should've reported his ass

[analog crown]

go back to sleep and STARVE/reference

[hushed osprey]

I just laughed. And tbf I didnt know how to report at the time. But that was the first *doesnt realize at the end of the day this is just a game and he's not actually a ghost hunter" host.

[lyric oracle]

Sorry fell asleep waiting for you to make me a sandwich.

[hushed osprey]

[analog crown]

YUHHHH

[whole egret]

"Not even man enough to get the ghost right. Pathetic."

[hushed osprey]

Are you even a real man if you guess Jinn and it's a Mimic?

[sacred shell]

he has a major skill issue

[lyric oracle]

I will pat you on the back and say that it's okay it a common mistake if you miss Mimic, but I will in fact be silently judging you.

[hushed osprey]

This

[zinc coyote]

Mistakes arent allowed

[analog crown]

thats HILARIOUS

[hushed osprey]

Jokes on you I'm still here, bub

[pine oar]

Im confused… in the toilet in coffee world the ghost opened the door fully but it was not a Yurei… and not a mimic. Can remember what.

[analog crown]

so leave/JOKE

[whole egret]

All ghosts can fully open doors now (and I want to cry)

[lyric oracle]

Any ghost can fully open/close doors.

[pine oar]

Oh.. so they ruined the yurei test?

[analog crown]

they all could 😭

[whole egret]

You still lose a lot of sanity when Yureis do it

[arctic salmon]

Well, have u tried restarting?

[lyric oracle]

There's no sanity drain. Yureis can ONLY fully open or close. Plus there's the Yurei smudge test that no one ever uses lol.

[whole egret]

Because it's boo boo!

[dry marten]

yes

[lyric oracle]

Honey boo boo?

[analog mason]

Why are ghosts much harder to find now compared to what they were
Before the character customisation update

[arctic salmon]

Another bug then.

Character rework themselves won't make ppl hate the game.
It's the fact that every single update (new content) they roll out always have bugs attached to them.
Makes u wonder if they actually test their own game before rolling out the patch.

[analog mason]

I found another phasmaphobia based horror game called The other side
It's pretty cool I think the phasmaphobia Devs should use inspiration for their future updates

[pearl stone]

Hello guys

[lyric oracle]

Didn't make me wonder that all, that's why it dropped with upcoming fixes as a warning lol

[dry marten]

I'm resigned to the fact that I lost that money and I won't get it back cos its something they will never fix

[arctic salmon]

Well, u also lose money when u prestige so just let it go ig.

[analog crown]

is there a bug with the words on the farmhouse master bedroom mirror? 😭

[analog mason]

Because phasmaphobia only makes me jump when I don't expect it
But the other side
Man that game is freaky instead of it being random events at random times
There's always something that will creep you out especially when you get jumpscared randomly by the ghost

[rose quarry]

true, the recent update is really good, there are just so many bugs. they tried to fix some stuff but there are still a lot

[arctic salmon]

No. It's on the bed's headboard

[granite zinc]

I think they should add more ghosts like the mare or ontyo to have more ghosts that are interactive outside of hunts

[analog crown]

OH THAT IS SUCH BULLSHIT THE ARROWS BOTH POINT TO THE MIRROR

[solemn stream]

It’s a mirror. What do mirrors usually show you?

[lyric oracle]

Some ugly dude.

[arctic salmon]

Well, it's supposed to be reflected on the mirror (if they actually act as one).

[dry marten]

I'm never gonna prestige. But I just hate the fact that they're like "oh okay, you lost a bunch of money for no reason and oh that cosmetic remains locked forever now"

[solemn stream]

Mirrors show you reflections

Have you tried looking behind you?

[analog crown]

wait do u lose cosmetics when u prestige?

[solemn stream]

No

[analog crown]

NO SHOT I GUESSED A HANTU RANDOMLY 😭

[arctic salmon]

Oh nice. So before my next prestige, I'll buy everything with my 60k money.

[hushed osprey]

Donate it to me. These cosmetics have me broke. Got me out on the truck like "spare change? Spare change??"

[analog mason]

Honestly I love the new character customisation update

But if it was in the same state as before the update in terms of interaction and swapping items

And maybe add some stuff to the ghost's AI like pushing a tv over and breaking it

Or throwing plates at you
And it would be so cool if they could revamp the ghost AI to keep it the same but adding some extra stuff to it that will make you shit your pants

The other side is the perfect example of what I mean

[solemn stream]

Did you find the word?

[arctic salmon]

Quote me on this.
U will not lose money when u don't get killed by the ghost. And u only need to run faster than your slowest teammate to survive the hunt.

[dry marten]

what do you do with the dolls? it goes back on the shelf as soon as I walk away with it

[analog mason]

Wouldn't you guys agree or not

[arctic salmon]

It'll appear on the lobby after the round is finisbed.

[quartz wigeon]

did they disable the making your character thing?

[solemn stream]

They appear in the lobby and you solve a puzzle with some of them

[solemn stream]

No

[granite zinc]

I think they should add more ghosts like the mare or onryo to have more ghosts that are interactive outside of hunts

[quartz wigeon]

my save button has a red triangle on it, any idea why?

[solemn stream]

Something you’ve selected is not unlocked

[hushed osprey]

Well about that. Im usually the one who barges into the match yelling the ghosts name and calling it a little b

[arctic salmon]

Custom character = love it.
The animations = horrid (before they patched it).
After the patch, it's kinda ok.. No love nor hate.

[analog mason]

Oh my god if that happened it would be a double ghost incident

[lyric oracle]

All of it is an okay baseline for them to build on.

[south haven]

they fixed it?

[solemn stream]

Fixed what?

[arctic salmon]

What?

[analog mason]

I honestly think they should fix the interaction system and the spirit box and the monkey paw it gives me the shits that I can't use them to find ghost instead I have to guess everything

[granite zinc]

No

[south haven]

the cosmetics u bought re locking after prestige

[solemn stream]

Oh. Yeah

[south haven]

nice

[granite zinc]

They need to add more stuff and add ghosts linked to these stuff

[arctic salmon]

They SHOULD fix everything that concerns game mechanics.

[lyric oracle]

Did we get a refund if we paid for a prestige top?

[quartz wigeon]

thank you

[solemn stream]

You’re welcome

[worthy cargo]

phasmini watermelini is the brainrot version of phasmophobia

[analog mason]

Actually I am going to suggest the Devs to add a mode that is beyond nightmare called Double trouble
Where you have two ghosts with the same abilities but different types and you have to guess what they are

And it can award you with 35x times the award if you survive and get them right

[granite zinc]

Ehh

[arctic salmon]

Diff type ghosts have diff ability. Huh?

[analog mason]

This shit would make the game frecking fun and hard

[arctic salmon]

Two ghosts in one map sounds too far fetched. But idk.

[analog mason]

Yea like
What if you had a mare and a wrath in the same house
But different rooms
And one will act not together
Like as a example
A mare could hunt first and then the wrath could hunt
While the mare turns off the lights

This could be the perfect example for Double trouble

[solar glen]

Hello

[hushed osprey]

Wacky idea, but DBD does that 2v8 thing every once in a while. Imagine a 2v8 phas lobby.

[arctic salmon]

[hushed osprey]

Howdy

[solar glen]

What if they made Phasmo maps but in daytime?

[analog mason]

But I think my idea could make the game more fun and more intense
But the player has to be level 100 in order to access it

[obtuse lagoon]

i took 2 ghost pics during a hunt, on the first one it said ghost and there was no ghost and on the second one there was a ghost, it ended up being a mimic, can a mimic switch from phantom mid hunt and loose its ability?

[hushed osprey]

I am too delirious for you to be waving that thing around right now

[solar glen]

[arctic salmon]

Lol. Imagine u r getting chased, went into a room to hide, hunt stopped, u r relieved, next hunt started and the ghost is in the room you're in.

[lyric oracle]

Making a level cap that's at prestige level makes no real sense lol. Plus there's no real way for it to not just be a mess XD

[hushed osprey]

Consider my flabbers GASTED

[solar glen]

Get flabbered and gasted

[zinc coyote]

Gimme

[analog crown]

is there anyway not to make phas so god damn laggy 😭

[analog mason]

What if the Double trouble feature was added to the custom settings as a very hard mode

[hushed osprey]

Yeah give them to the one with the grippers

[zinc coyote]

[hushed osprey]

I asked this once and was told to touch grass

[arctic salmon]

Kinda makes sense to me since you'd have enough experience when you're at lv100. . But ppl get free prestige so idk if that's an actual gatekeep or not.

[analog crown]

its a reasonable request what 💀

[lyric oracle]

Levell 100 and P1 are different things; you mean it stays unlocked?

[analog mason]

I am actually going to suggest it to the Devs along with some other ideas
Hopefully they consider it

[hushed osprey]

Oh let me be clear. It wasnt an official dev request or anything. It was me complaining to my group.

[dry marten]

what so you can hold a torch in your left hand now, but still need to have nothing in your hand to turn it on?

[arctic salmon]

Yeah. Just like the difficulty.
U unlock pro at lv20 and nightmare at lv40.

[hushed osprey]

What flavor?

[lyric oracle]

Okay that part makes more sense. The game mode idea is a total mess but that part I get now lol

[arctic salmon]

Prolly not. They clearly stated that they're not open to suggestions.

[analog crown]

ohhh

[analog crown]

was apoc 3 not enough for u

[lyric oracle]

They literally do not take suggestions lol

[hushed osprey]

I have a suggestion...

[analog mason]

I will try anyway maybe they might consider some of my ideas

Where can I go to add my suggestions ?

[lyric oracle]

TOO BAD SO SAD CRY ABOUT IT :p

[hushed osprey]

[arctic salmon]

#fan-suggestions

[lyric oracle]

You literally cannot go anywhere, that's why we said they don't take any. And no; they will almost definitely not consider them :p

[arctic salmon]

@analog mason don't forget to READ the channel description.

[analog mason]

What about bug fixes?

[lyric oracle]

Basically no one outside of the original Dev truly understands the formula of the game; that's why other games that tried to follow in Phas footsteps fall short, and most fan suggestions are very flawed.

[analog crown]

dawg what is up with the ghosts WALK

[arctic salmon]

U want to know the bugfix or want to report bugs?

[analog mason]

As I emailed them yesterday and they never responded so I am going to send some bugs

[analog mason]

I want to report bugs

[dry marten]

I reported bugs but they never bother responding

[arctic salmon]

#bug-reports follow the pinned comment!

[lyric oracle]

Reporting bugs is very different to suggestions. #bug-reports be sure to check #known-issues

[arctic salmon]

Exactly

[lyric oracle]

It's not even a pinned comment; it's the only thing in the channel, and still people fail to read it 😭 lol

[analog mason]

Do they even view them?

[arctic salmon]

Would u rather get a bot reply or no response?

[arctic salmon]

Noone knows.

[dry marten]

I'd rather get a human reply

[lyric oracle]

Yes, but it's incredibly unrealistic to expect individual responses lol

[hushed osprey]

I want the next ghost to look like ME

[analog mason]

Well they need to fix the damn issues I have been having with the game

[arctic salmon]

Impossible. Lookup phasmo copies sold count. .

[dry marten]

a standard response like "we'll check it out" would be fine

[lyric oracle]

They've been working on various issues, some are more difficult than others to rectify clearly.

[lyric oracle]

Which a bot could do easily...

[arctic salmon]

a bot reply then.

[analog mason]

They better fix the interaction system and the spirit box and monkey paw in the next update

[dry marten]

bot reply would be better than them doing nothing

[lyric oracle]

Why though? XD

[arctic salmon]

They prolly will.
And also break another stuff while at it.
U get used to it.

[hushed osprey]

🍿

[lyric oracle]

They are undoubtably aware of it, seems to likely be an issue with Vivox tho.

[hushed osprey]

Just do like i do. Switch to text, and spam the absolute hell out of the buttons.

[analog mason]

Yea I suppose you're right
But man it's a pain in the ass
Like when you drop your thing to detect the temps
It's very hard to pick up
And trying to pick it up before a hunt happens but it's painful slow

[analog mason]

I don't know how to activate text mode

[lyric oracle]

Options > Game > Voice recognition; Text

[arctic salmon]

As the art director said "keep playing and you'll get used to it"

[hushed osprey]

Ahhh ya beat me to it. YOU NEVER LET ME HAVE ANYTHING

[lime dagger]

how do i use the report bot i need to report a cheater and racist

[lyric oracle]

Fasted fingers in the west.

[analog mason]

I did that but how do you actually get the text to work ingame
Do you have to press a certain button or what

[lyric oracle]

-report

[prime elk]

There are many avenues to reporting whether it is a member on the Discord or a player in-game! For different reporting options, please click on the corresponding button for more information.
_ _

[hushed osprey]

Well I reckon this town IS big enough for the two of us, partner. 🤠

[lyric oracle]

When you interact with a thing that needs the voice, like the board, box, paw; the text option comes up.

[analog mason]

What about with the spirit box?

[lime dagger]

how does it work if the same person applies to both? will i have to to end up doing both or is one just fine?

[hushed osprey]

It also allows you to not move at all while the pop up text is active. So take note of that.

[lyric oracle]

The box was the second thing I listed :p You hold it, activate it; and it comes up.

[arctic salmon]

Make 2 separate reports ig.

[analog mason]

Do I have to press a specific key to bring up the menu as everytime I do it
Nothing happens

[lyric oracle]

If it's set to text when you activate the spirit box it will show at the bottom

[hushed osprey]

There will be no question about if its active or not once it is. It'll just take up the bottom half of your screen while in use.

[lyric oracle]

If it isn't showing up; you don't have it set to text.

[analog mason]

So do I have to press the button to activate it
Then the text shows up correct?

[lyric oracle]

Yes you press the turn on spirit box button

[analog mason]

Okay
So I will do that next time

[lyric oracle]

On PC you click the option, on controller it shows the button bindings.

[wary meadow]

hey ive not played since the last update was light house i think yeah so anything that i could catch up with?

[wise moss]

-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.

[lyric oracle]

5 new ghosts, it's unstable rn especially MP, there's animations.. uh.. there's an event on atm

[hushed osprey]

Speaking of new ghosts. I appreciate the new Asswang or whatever it is.

[wary meadow]

what does tht ghost do?

i mean behaviour wise

[hushed osprey]

Im not sure but im incredibly immature and I just think the name is funny.

I love that Kronos or whatever tho. How it doesnt see you if you dont move, speak or have electricity on. Cool mechanic

[lyric oracle]

Kormos is blind but hears you, even your movements. Aswang starts slow but faster LoS build up and if it sees you go into an offical hiding spot will stop hunting. Oh also LoS has been slowed across the board.

[hushed osprey]

A MUCH better reply. And that's why they pay him the big bucks.

[lyric oracle]

The best paid shill in the business :v

[hushed osprey]

[plucky temple]

Greetings

[zinc coyote]

[hushed osprey]

GLORP

[hushed osprey]

Hello hello

[wary meadow]

what abt the maps?

[plucky temple]

[solar glen]

[wary meadow]

like is the hiding spot nerfed? or anything like tht?

[hushed osprey]

❤️

[lyric oracle]

Inadvertantly; on Tangle the hiding spots are included in ghost pathing for some reason, meaning the bones can spawn there and be locked in a closet lol. But more impacting; the ghost can roam into them. But that's unintended.

[plucky temple]

The ultimate bamboozle

[whole egret]

I was today years old when I found out the couch on Tanglewood blocks LoS even when standing

[lyric oracle]

Thought you were safe huh!?

[plucky temple]

I'm an exception

[lyric oracle]

Same if true lol. Tbf I don't know much about any new maps at all XD

[whole egret]

Justly did it on his stream. The only time the ghost saw him is when it pathed there

[lyric oracle]

That crazy ghost patching.

[whole egret]

AUTOCORRECT

[lyric oracle]

Damn the ghosts are patching and autocorrecting mid match!? They're neural net processors... LEARNING COMPUTERS!

[plucky temple]

I knew this would happen

[whole egret]

The world is ending

[lyric oracle]

This is how the world ends; not with a bang but a line of code.

[plucky temple]

How are you?

[hushed osprey]

I am doing well!! Popped in after being in hiding for months and am meeting so many new people! (Well...new to me lol). How are you?

[plucky temple]

Welcome back to the madness I'm okay thanks but it's Monday morning so I'm miserable too

[hushed osprey]

Ahh yes. Dreaded monday.

[plucky temple]

Working and dying, send help immediately thanks ❤️

[dry marten]

where are these dolls supposed to appear in the lobby?

[pine oar]

at the table with the writter

[dry marten]

after how many have been picked up? There are none there

[pine oar]

they appeared for me immedietly

[dry marten]

I picked up 1, finished the game and went back. Nothing there

wtf okay its on the floor

[pine oar]

YEah thats where you solve the puzzle later

[glacial musk]

im gonna hack ur mom

[dry marten]

so do nothing with it

[distant bluff]

When will the Xbox finally receive the update that fixes the color glitch? The game has been unplayable on Xbox since the last update.

[pine oar]

Need to find all before doin the puzzle

[dry marten]

how many is all?

[pine oar]

you can see how many dols its in on each event map on the board

like 3-4 on each map

[dry marten]

okay right

[lyric oracle]

3 have 3 1 has 4

[near badger]

I've been trying to do the gold apocalypse and I'm straight up not having a good time. I dream about sunny meadows. I live here now.

[glacial portal]

do u still get xp bonus/money bonus if u die

Like does it x it up then -50% it

[cursive totem]

Do spirits take 2 minutes to hunt off rip, aka leaving van?

[upper stratus]

I'm pretty sure first hunt is normal and the 3mins is only after smudge

[cursive totem]

Ok had to confirm as ive never had this happen but got a guy saying its a fact

[upper stratus]

Yeah also nothing happens until you open the front door

[lyric oracle]

No, they take 2 minutes after a smudge,

[solid cliff]

you lose 50% of your money + xp, the daily rewards and weekly rewards are not included, i think the bone is also not included

[solid cliff]

3 mins

[lyric oracle]

Yes, 3 minutes, I read them saying 2 and went along with it XD

But yes; nothing "activates" (apart from orbs existing if that's still a thing) until the front door is opened. All rooms start the same temp, the ghost ain't doing anything etc.

[night minnow]

Anyone have any improving in the game since yesterday? I head of a lot of crashing?

[solid cliff]

has anyone completed the challenge mode? it is very easy, i got one ghost right, down to 2 more

[lyric oracle]

I've not been on what is the challenge?

[solid cliff]

the challenge is the ghost will hunt every 20 secs, but is 50% speed, very easy to avoid, you can find the ghost instandly

[lyric oracle]

But only a demon hunt every 20s lol

[zinc coyote]

#phasmo-chat message

[solid cliff]

this is for a challenge, not a normal game

[lyric oracle]

This is also entirely inaccurate info... lmao

[zinc coyote]

Challenge mode doesn't change how fast the ghost can hunt

[solid cliff]

then why is the ghost hunting every time, a youtuber said it

[lyric oracle]

Also them choosing to hunt at every given opportunity alone isn't guaranteed.

[lyric oracle]

They were doing a thing called "Being wrong" lol.

[zinc coyote]

You're at 0 sanity so it's going to hunt often. But that doesn't change the timer

[solid cliff]

can you try the challenge?

[lyric oracle]

If I get on I'll likely do it; won't change the fact I know it's not the case lol.

[solid cliff]

i know 0 Santy is going to give a lot of hunts, but why is the ghost hunting me for every 20 secs?

[zinc coyote]

Its not, unless its a demon

[lyric oracle]

You're mistiming it if it's not a demon 🙂

[solid cliff]

wait, i forgot i had a demon on my first game, and i only played the challenge mode 2 times, so i am dumb

[lyric oracle]

Other ghosts CAN after 25s.

[solid cliff]

i am mistiming it lol

[lyric oracle]

None are obligated to, that's about the personality rolls 🙂

Chill demons are funny.

[solid cliff]

also a free 5000$ + xp for me!, unless challenge mode does not give xp

[lyric oracle]

Money = xp

[cursive totem]

Ye nah had a guy adamant it couldn't be a spirit if it hunted before 2 minutes, he was prestige 13 btw

[foggy garden]

Is anyone still crashing on console?

[cursive totem]

Yes just now

[steel pendant]

Just had a game on diner map. Second set of doors opened by themselves. Ghost was in the bathroom, knocked over the camera & you could see the dots I set up & the rain outside 😂

[foggy garden]

Same!

[hushed osprey]

Ooo Spirit cool down after smudge debate? I want in.

[cursive totem]

Not a debate just someone with bad info spreading it around

[lyric oracle]

Happens a lot, prestige doesn't actualy equal full knowledge lol

Saw a p20 adamantaly, violently insist a Banshee changes targets when the target isn't in the house :,3 lol

With every misinfo I see, I can see the origin of the misunderstanding. But if you are violently defensive if your view without looking at the facts that disprove it; no matter your prestige you're bad lol.

[hushed osprey]

Im pretty decent prestige and I die constantly because I dont stfu during a hunt. So yeah, dont rely on anyone's prestige to equal skill

[lyric oracle]

Push to talk saves lives.

[hushed osprey]

Not if you forget to let go

[zinc coyote]

No need to talk if you play solo

[lyric oracle]

Tell that to me singing skibiddi bop bloody mary to test if it's a Yokai.

[zinc coyote]

Thats usually the only time I talk solo. If I suspect a yokai, I just run in screaming "yokaaiiii"

[lyric oracle]

That's another approach I guess lol. It didn't hunt, it was in fact not a yokai, I sang to a random ghost XD

I have to imagine it side eying me like wtf is he doing

[zinc coyote]

Oh, I dont sing. My neighbors might think an exorcism is happening

[plucky temple]

[hushed osprey]

Maybe so. But, you'll get that Yokai confirmation. 😏

[zinc coyote]

[zinc coyote]

Usually ends in me dying to death

[hushed osprey]

Dying to death IS the worst kind of dying.

[plucky temple]

Looks yummy

[ionic mist]

All the time in multiplayer lobbies

[zinc coyote]

Dying is the #1 cause of death, usually

[hushed osprey]

Thats what the government WANTS you to think

[lyric oracle]

Earth is statistically the most dealy planet.

[night minnow]

[lyric oracle]

Merry Christmas!

[velvet monolith]

any stream or the partners?

[glacial stag]

Partners: animated
Any phas stream: standard

so 4h total i believe

[velvet monolith]

Oooo alright

[glacial stag]

same as previous drops

[hushed osprey]

insert Elf reference here

[tender mural]

How do you know whos a partner and whos not

[glacial stag]

on Twitch its the people with the KG team on their profile, also the people with the red roles, their stream appear in #partner-streams --->

[tender mural]

gotcha

[velvet monolith]

i was gonna say the partner streams channel lol

[glacial stag]

there

[velvet monolith]

[arctic salmon]

Nah. There's dying to disconnect and dying to crash.

[rare steppe]

#social-media-feed message
No offense but shouldnt they be prioritising fixing the game still over doing twitch drops

[lean timber]

whenever i take a photo in game it crashes

[dry marten]

those twitch drops are a waste of time. I have a couple cool cards but yeah after you get one you like its pointless and worthless doing all those events just to get worthless card badge things

[rare steppe]

I think they will get better as clothes customisation grows

But the seasonal events being the same every year got old quick

[dry marten]

cept you have to pay 10000 for 1 jacket. That's more than anyone pays for a jacket IRL

[rare steppe]

Unless its gucci

[lyric oracle]

But also they're permanent unlocks and using money you otherwise have no use for 😄

[rare steppe]

Tbh if you are a levelling up player, have to blow 10k on a clothing item is a bit outrageous

[dry marten]

but seriously, why not do what Daemonologist did and have lobby unlocks, instead of just clothes? That would be more worth it

[rare steppe]

lobby unlocks?

[dry marten]

in Daemonologist you can change the lobby to a Lighthouse or a Pub or something else

[rare steppe]

Sounds sick

[lyric oracle]

Cosmetics are completely optional things tho, once you've levelled and got the unlocks (ignoring sound sensor t2 :v) you end up with a stockpile of money you won't use tho.

[rare steppe]

Ive often thought customising the van would be fun

[lyric oracle]

Pimp my riiiide

[dry marten]

Yeah customizing the van and the lobby would be so much better

[rare steppe]

Clothing should increase in cost depending on level/presitge!

[lyric oracle]

It should not increase based on Presitige :p

[dry marten]

it should be the higher prestige level the more it costs so everyone lower level can get something cool to customize with

instead of janky crap you start off with

[lyric oracle]

But every time you prestige; you return to 0. Why are you trying to punish people for playing? XD

[stark dove]

??

Horrible idea 😭

[dry marten]

you have to play a lot to get to prestige tho

[lyric oracle]

But you still return to $0 that means nothing lol

[dry marten]

yeah but you'd be back up to 10k in a few days probably

[lyric oracle]

Vastly sooner if you tried, but that's not everyone. Random punishment for prestiging ain't the move lol.

[rare steppe]

Idk just trying to think of a way to make clothes more reasonable

[stark dove]

There's no reason to increase the price of items for more dedicated players, genuinely makes zero sense

[rare steppe]

No its to reduce costs for new players

[stark dove]

They can just lower the price for everyone

[dry marten]

There's no reason to have massive prices, makes no sense

[lyric oracle]

By the end it is reasonable, plus you don't need EVERY item, you can only wear some lol.

[dry marten]

Have lobby unlocks for 20K or something

customization to tell your friends apart should be cheap so you can tell who is who

10K for a hat lol rediculous

[lyric oracle]

There's already a bunch of models, different hair colours, prestige items are free, there's a lot of ways to tell apart. Plus people wear the same cosmetics a lot, it's not about telling the difference between people lol.

[dry marten]

a bunch of models that look pretty similar and especially from the back so you can't tell between them

[lyric oracle]

Why do you need to instantly know who is who from the back? XD

[stark dove]

wish they dropped some clothes that were millions

[lyric oracle]

Makes your skin completely golden.

[dry marten]

just saying like this is where they put their priorities. Instead of doing something like lobby unlocks, they make players spend 10K on a jacket instead

[velvet monolith]

like a golden suit lol

[lyric oracle]

Yeah, shame it's definitely the last iteration of it and not just a framework they can add more to /s

[dry marten]

like yeah thats a great way to spend customer money

I mean what was the point in changing Tanglewood? All the time doing that could've been spent doing something else

[stark dove]

item skins are the only type of customization i want

[dry marten]

yeah even item skins would've been better than the stuff they just released

[stark dove]

it didnt have unique assets

theyre reworking all the maps with assets they dont own for the 1.0 release

[dry marten]

I don't think anyone cared that is didn't have "unique assets" it looked fine the way it was

[lyric oracle]

They've also been VERY clear and open about that lol

[rare steppe]

They need to stop the map reworks to work on mechanics for horror 2.0 IMO
I fear for 1.0 release given the character update conundrum

[lyric oracle]

The maker cared, and that's kinda the most important thing lol.

Uses assets; "Asset flip slop" Replaces assets; "NO ONE ASKED FOR THIS" no winning

[dry marten]

yeah stop map reworks, spend time and effort on fixing the game

[lyric oracle]

That isn't the same team lol

Artists making assets aren't writing the code. The programmers aren't designing the assets.

[dry marten]

still a complete waste of time

they could be doing item skins or lobby reworks

instead of reworking what no one asked for

[mortal turtle]

New tanglewood has character and is not a barebone ugly white house 😭

[rare steppe]

Nobody asked for reworks but you have to admit they are really nice

[hidden crown]

Really hoping for an update tomorrow to make everything feel smoother 🙏

[rare steppe]

Im glad they happened but its time to pause that to work on other aspects of the game for 1.0 i think

[dry marten]

The Tanglewood rework already had character cos there was already a rework. Then they did it again unneccessarily

[rare steppe]

Not really a 'rework', just some mat changes and moving a door lol

[dry marten]

well there was, I have played since the beginning. Lots of new stuff added in 😉

[lyric oracle]

Like all things; there's no reason to assume no work is being done on that because other things are being worked on.

[rare steppe]

Well we will find out i guess

But i hate how quiet they are about horror 2.0 given it is the single most anticipated update since like 22

[lyric oracle]

That's actually preferrable to overhype lol

[rare steppe]

No, in the roadmap stream at the start of the year they said that they wont 'spoil' anything or give details

Which is, pardon my french, bullshit

[lyric oracle]

Which is still a better move. People overhyped the character update, and that made it hurt WAY more. Also p sure that's not French :v

[dry marten]

yeah they need to update the players. The ones giving actual money to buy the game

[lyric oracle]

Gave money once*

[carmine vortex]

I was so worried I'd hate Tangle because it was my favourite comfort map but I actually love what they've done with it. It does have more character you're right!

[dry marten]

what so devs don't owe the players who gave them money updates? BS

[rare steppe]

"pardon my french" its an old saying

[lyric oracle]

I know I was just rustling your jimmies, pardon my Dutch.

[ocean laurel]

Hi, is the Alan wake thingy still going? If yes, how long?

[lyric oracle]

Literally? No they don't lol. I have 500 hours already, that's definitely my money's worth.

[lyric oracle]

3 weeks from the start date... whatever that is lol.

[dry marten]

I have nearly 600 hours worth, I have got my money's worth. But its not good holding back from the players. Bunch of BS IMO. If it wasn't for the players this game would've failed.

[lyric oracle]

I got it 1 month after release, there's been a bunch of ups and down, and this is a big down rn, but I'm waiting to see the upswing.

[lyric oracle]

Yes, and they continue to release content for them to finish the game. Complete transparency isn't a requirement.

[dry marten]

The game has gone downhill IMO

[lyric oracle]

No, it's had a dip.

[dry marten]

I would say transparency IS required. I know other devs who do this

[lyric oracle]

Yes there's a lot. There's also plenty who don't :v

[rare steppe]

I think it would be cool if they asked what we wanted for horror 2.0

[hoary kraken]

i would like to ask how to get the drops?

[humble tundra]

ive heard this same thing hundreds of times for the past few years

[lyric oracle]

Watching streams with it enabled, doesn't start til tomorrow tho.

[dry marten]

The Best Devs do transparency all the time and update players regularly.

[humble tundra]

phasmophobia is not going downhill, its only going up!!!

[lyric oracle]

The best devs talk endlessly about what the game will offer?

[hoary kraken]

ah okay thank you

[dry marten]

The Best Devs give regularly updates and yeah maybe actually would ask the players would they'd like for Horror 2.0 @rare steppe

[rare steppe]

I agree

Regular being maybe monthly or fortnightly in form of newsletter

[lyric oracle]

While that's kinda cool; most player suggestions aren't good lol.

[rare steppe]

True tbf

[lyric oracle]

GiVe Me JuMpScArEs

[dry marten]

it actually doesn't matter whether player suggestions are good or not. Its customer service

[humble tundra]

As long as they improve upon the games horror element significantly, I'll be happy

[lyric oracle]

They provide a product not a service lol.

[dry marten]

and make more differences between th event and hunt.

[lyric oracle]

There's so much difference; if you struggle with that that's on you 😭

[dry marten]

the game is a service. It has multiplayer. That is a service

[lyric oracle]

They have no control over how that multiplayer plays out, you're doing it on the game; the product lol.

[dry marten]

serve the players by giving regular updates. It's not that hard

[blissful ocean]

I can't believe what I'm seeing

[lyric oracle]

What? You look in the mirror, haha gottem

But fr tho idk what you're talking about lol

[blissful ocean]

Ooo-! That was good

[dry marten]

and besides, I'm not the only one complaining about the differences between a hunt and an event, often its confusing when it starts, that's an issue I have heard many complaints about. Having a go at people for not instantly being able to tell is not cool

[humble tundra]

you know how hard it is to push updates onto playstation and xbox? its why ive always said console should have come post 1.0 release so we could get more frequent updates

point is, IT IS HARD. the only fix is changing how they go about releasing updates on platforms that require so much notice

[lyric oracle]

What is it you're in disbelief about tho lol

[blissful ocean]

Just everything. I love looking back on the messages between work breaks.

[lyric oracle]

Not instantly perhaps, but if you don't learn that remains on you :/

[dry marten]

whatever it used to be that when the flashlight started flashing, that was a hunt

no its not "on me" thats a load of BS. It's on the devs to make it more clear and more fun

[humble tundra]

agreed, becomes easier when you realise each ghost has a designated 'random hunt sound' so when you hear a ghost and its not its current hunt sound then you know its a ghost event

also the fact that the lights will turn off in the room of the ghost event and the ghost not being able to blink during events

[lyric oracle]

It's very clear, there's many factors that show if it's an event or a hunt, that's far from BS lol

[humble tundra]

this is so much cope lol

[ruby trench]

90.37 woot! and afternoon all 😄

[dry marten]

yeah whatever. So people have to have really good memories to remember all those things? load of bs

[low frigate]

Just tried to play Phasmophobia on my xbox series x and it is impossible to play as it keeps freezing and that doesnt happen when i play other games

[humble tundra]

dudeee this is so copeeeee, if you arent bothered putting the time in to understand how the game works then dont play it or dont complain

[blissful ocean]

It's got some optimisation issues at the moment on all platforms.

[ruby trench]

how is everyone doing

[blissful ocean]

I'll be better when I'm out of work

[dry marten]

wtf is cope, speak english mate. And I have played this longer than you so I'm just saying its bad how they changed it ffss

[ruby trench]

lol how much more time

[blissful ocean]

[blissful ocean]

Meh. Only 5 more hours. Then I've gotta walk home because my car is on the other side of the city having its clutch changed STILL. And then pick it up later this evening

[low frigate]

thank you for the information they need to sort it as I love playing the game

[blissful ocean]

Yeah they're definitely aware, I wouldn't worry too much about it

[ruby trench]

ooof, sending you lots of good vibes and a quick easy night/day/morning 😄

[humble tundra]

pls youre embarrassing yourself, clearly you havent played this longer than me because i learnt the difference between ghost events and ghost hunts back in 2021 lol

[dry marten]

did you play before they changed it?

[covert barn]

guys, stop fighting in front of the kids

[humble tundra]

they changed EVERYTHING since 2021, so yeah.

[covert barn]

please... please... don't get a divorce

[lyric oracle]

tbh the cope line was cringe..
And like I said earlier I played first one month post release, I've learned the difference 🙂

[dry marten]

how many hours?

[humble tundra]

760

[glacial stag]

If you guys can't have a respectful discussion, please move on

[dry marten]

whatever

[lyric oracle]

Pfft nerd :p

[covert barn]

guys, why are we fighting over a ghost hunting game... this can

[humble tundra]

this is cope...

[covert barn]

't be how the marriage ends

[ruby trench]

i've been playing longer (jk idk how long yall beeen playing lol) and i still DONT know the difference 😛

[dry marten]

apparently its illegal to have an opinion and submit feedback here

[glacial stag]

Your free to voice your opinion so long as its respectful

[humble tundra]

hyperboles arent allowed as well

[covert barn]

events are short physical or audio scares that cannot kill you, hunts are where the ghost mounts you and sticks the cruxi where the sun don't shine

[dry marten]

I'm not the one throwing words like cope around which I don't even know what means

[covert barn]

cope is not a bad word though lol

[dry marten]

yeah well how is someone supposed to know that?

[glacial stag]

Can you guys move on from this discussion or not?

[covert barn]

yeah king shark is right

[humble tundra]

anyone thats picked up a dictionary /j

[lyric oracle]

So; ghosts huh? Amirite?

[ruby trench]

oh ik but either one i still squeeze my cheeks 😛 i was just looking at this recognition in the lobby and seen it was 378 lol

[covert barn]

yeah some ghost events still make me clench and run to the front door thinking it was a hunt

[unborn cliff]

I mean, google translate is free lol x)

[thick vine]

so what's up with the new badge coming tomorrow, is christmas coming early this year? =3

[ruby trench]

lol indeed, especially more when you take long breaks and come back feeling fresh again

[glacial stag]

its the sweater from a character from alan wake

[covert barn]

I really want to play rn, but tbh just waiting for another bug fix patch as the performance isn't great rn, lots of lag spikes and frame drops

[lyric oracle]

Merry chrystler!

[thick vine]

OH i never played or seen anything from alan wake, it looked like a christmas sweater

[blissful ocean]

Ykw- I didn't even notice that post. I'm so glad you mentioned that or I would've missed it

[zinc coyote]

[glacial stag]

It's Saga's sweater

[lyric oracle]

You telling me they can't translate slang into English?!

[zinc coyote]

Crimmus

[lyric oracle]

Krampus came early.

[thick vine]

cute!

[blissful ocean]

Me and Krampus have a very love hate relationship.

[lyric oracle]

You love him he hates you? :v

[blissful ocean]

Think it's the other way around.

[lyric oracle]

I had to zoom in to check if that was MLP or not lol

[ruby trench]

hows the challenge mode this week?

[blissful ocean]

NOOOO- POOR LISA-

[dry marten]

I just looked up cope. It is an insult. So this is the last I will say on it, but I wasns't using it.

[lyric oracle]

It's in pins.

[ruby trench]

no no i meant like how did people find it lol

im about to try it 😄

[lyric oracle]

I found it under difficulties.. :v

[covert barn]

that's some mad cope

[blissful ocean]

Haven't done it yet, but it seems quite fun! One I think I haven't done yet.

[static talon]

It’s actually so much fun, I loved it

[lyric oracle]

It's definitely more bearable than some are lol

[glacial stag]

This discussion isn't Phasmophobia related, I have asked people to stop this discussion.

[blissful ocean]

I agree. I will say, definitely more interesting than last week's.

[unborn cliff]

Fair

[zinc coyote]

[glacial stag]

it is no longer about the game

[lyric oracle]

Apoc x 3 for 5k? Nah I'm aight. Weird goofiness with slow ghost three times? Yea I can maybe fug with that lol

[tall island]

does the ghost fully check a room or if he sees there's no one here it continues during a hunt?

[lyric oracle]

Holy cringe...

[lyric oracle]

You ever see a fly trying to escape a closed window? They're kinda like that.

[ruby trench]

think i've done sunny weekly style about 3 times now lol

[zinc coyote]

Its random pathing but they have a full 360° view.
They see you, they eat you

[blissful ocean]

Best representation I've ever heard.

[lyric oracle]

Yeah, like I said, fly meets window :p

[zinc coyote]

🪰

[tall island]

i tried looping around tanglewood living room table but its too small or mayble im just a noob

[ruby trench]

cww is coffee world yeah?

[blissful ocean]

Correct!

[thick vine]

I had a ghost on ridgeview go to the piano room while i was in view of that hallway in the kitchen.. it didn't turn back, so i guess not 360 view?

[zinc coyote]

Cww = Cool Wiggly Worms 🪱

[unborn cliff]

Does anyone know if the ghost not burning the crucifix, even when it's in range, is a bug?

[ruby trench]

aye ty milo/grim LOL

[lyric oracle]

Was it a Kormos? They do have 360 vision

[blissful ocean]

You're very welcome. Both are correct.

[ruby trench]

thats how i feel when i get hunted by a deo

[thick vine]

nope, it was an onryo

[zinc coyote]

Could have seen someone else, but they all have 360° view. Besides the new one thats blind

[lyric oracle]

Guy's just an idiot.

[thick vine]

onryo's usually are

[blissful ocean]

HEY- don't bully the ghosts. They can have off days too!

[zinc coyote]

Goryos can get bullied

[lyric oracle]

I thought the main goal of the game was bullying them?

[thick vine]

i support this message

[ruby trench]

onryos are great when they blow them candles in sunny on 0 evidence, or has that changed now

[blissful ocean]

No ykw- agreed. Don't bully the ghosts, but Goryos are an exception. Beat them up.

[lyric oracle]

If they're in the church they gotta do a lot of puffing lol

[ruby trench]

lmao aye

[zinc coyote]

Goryos get the bonk

[lyric oracle]

-+-Nah I respect their bad boi attitude

[blissful ocean]

[ruby trench]

shades on the other hand... can take a nap and still not be hunted

[zinc coyote]

I respect them not being in my game

[lyric oracle]

r00d

[zinc coyote]

I swear. I can be in an entire different zip code watching from the truck and that little turd still wont give me dots

[lyric oracle]

Cause they don't follow rules, they're bad bois

[zinc coyote]

Then they get the bonk

[ruby trench]

round 1 on weekly, bet ill get smacked by a onryo or shade now. brb sec 😄

[zinc coyote]

[blissful ocean]

Good luck!

[plucky temple]

[blissful ocean]

(Really hope they get a super stinky ghost)

[ruby trench]

already got distracted by these new turning on/off animations for t1 emf 😄

[ruby trench]

lmao

[blissful ocean]

Don't. I'm personally not a fan. It's SO buggy, sometimes you turn it on, throw it and it'll just turn itself off again. Then again, I think it goes for most equipment at the moment.

[latent basalt]

do cursed items not always show up? Me and my crew always find the mirror or the doll, we have found the music box and the cards once, does each one have a rarer chance of spawning, or am I just missing the locations

[ruby trench]

lmao, ik. i've sat there waiting wondering why the emf didnt go off once and realised it was off 😄

[blissful ocean]

Always should be one. Unless your difficulty your on has it set to off. Don't quote me on it, but I believe they all have the same chance of showing up.

[slim whale]

They always show up if you play on nightmare or below or custom with cursed objects turned on

[ruby trench]

nope nope, it made a doll laugh

[smoky sun]

517845

[ruby trench]

i dont like that one bit, nope lol

[slim whale]

Mirror, cards, monkey paw, music box, voodoo doll, ouija board, summoning circle
All have same chance of showing up but only one shows up at a time (if not custom)

[blissful ocean]

(Circle)

[slim whale]

Thanksies

[whole egret]

Tarot cards are so fun

[covert barn]

yeah, especially with how bugged they are rn lol

[blissful ocean]

Tarot cards mess up like- 30% of my games I swear-

[rich token]

Hii guys

[blissful ocean]

Mainly because I have friends who think it's hilarious.

Anyway! I'm back off to work! Talk to you all later! Love yall!

[unborn cliff]

agreed, although I have used them a couple of times and gotten myself and my friends killed

[whole egret]

I hide before using them lmao

[rich token]

How are you all?

Can I draw pfp for anyone?

[plucky temple]

hiiiii

[unborn cliff]

Same, but sometimes I don't tell my friends that I'm gonna use them

[rare steppe]

Do onis still have extreme throw ability?

[latent basalt]

also me and the group have started doing professional and Nightmare difficulty, and thats the point where ghosts hide an evidence, but if the ghost doesnt have UV, can I cross that off to eliminate a ghost? and what is the best way to figure out what the ghosts are without that piece of evidence? I try to figure out the ghosts ability and actions, but it lowk gets harder to do after my whole squad gets wiped in the first hunt, nor do I know whta Im looking for

[rare steppe]

You can only rule off an obake if there is no UV in nightmare 👍

[full nest]

Hey I keep getting a voice server not available error how can I fix? I already verified game files

[slow spade]

Holy nostalgia. That hasn't been in the game in years

[rare steppe]

Ah ok

[potent gull]

Is there anyone that could share their custom 10x+ with me ? I wanna try doing some runs on my own but I don’t know which settings are the best lol

[slow spade]

I just checked and the last time that has been in the game was 2.9 years ago -- the Apocalypse update 😭

Such a good update 🥹

[latent basalt]

with basic equipment is there a better way to find the ghost room than the thermometer or the camera for ghost orbs?

[slim whale]

Thermo is best

On bigger maps tier 3 paramic helps. But thats not basic equipment

[sand bane]

listening for thrown objects/ doors

[sour badger]

If they start throwing stuff in the room or cold breath sometimes depending on weather

[latent basalt]

it always takes too long for the thermo to start to get the right tempature, because by that time the ghost has killed somebody

[brazen perch]

I cant type typ somthing in tech support

[vague crane]

Does incense now have some weird delay?

I lit it and threw it at the ghost a I've always done yet it seemed to not blind it

[unique siren]

Just saw someone post on FB that another set of twitch stream drops will be starting tomorrow - anyone know where they announced this initially so I don't miss out next time?

[cobalt matrix]

I mean, it takes you like a whole 3 seconds to light it now from what I've seen.

[slim whale]

Its just the animation. It lights instantly

[vague crane]

Does it carry to actual activation tho? I hope not

[slim whale]

Normally its announces in #game-announcements or somewhere in the links in there. I dont recall if theres drops tomorrow

[cobalt matrix]

Oh neat. Thanks Mimi.

[unique siren]

Thanks! Maybe it's an early leak or something lol

A knitted sweater ID badge (red colour, white accents) with a white deer on it

[stark dove]

check pins

[slim whale]

@glacial stag where did they announce that?

[arctic salmon]

Emf and camera is your best bet.
Keep your ear open for thrown object noises.
When u think u have the room, put down one salt pile. See if the ghost step on it or not.

[vital adder]

is the ouija currently not working

[weary vale]

How long does the community points take to update, because I did do some rounds just now before bed

[slow spade]

It updates pretty quick. One small thing though the target is 150m points meaning each 0.01% is 15k points - its not really possible to see your own progress

[weary vale]

Oh

Now explain it to me like I'm a monkey 😆

[night minnow]

I missed if anyone answered my question?

[stark dove]

you put one banana in a big pile of banana, not much difference is made

[weary vale]

nana

[slim whale]

What was your question? Probably didnt see it

[night minnow]

I saw the game had a lot of issues last night has that been resolved?

[slim whale]

I mean what issues exactly? You can check #change-log for a lot of fixes theyve dont in the last days

I can play without much issues atm

Alright

I just heard that the server is poppin off last night because of issues

[blissful ocean]

Ykw- I can't lie, the increased cap does make for some funny moments, especially with how long you can actually make the prestige level

[spice plank]

I didn't understand anything

[spice plank]

Did you get a response about Los?

[odd vale]

No.

[blissful ocean]

Well this is prestige 3777 : MMMDCCLXXVII

[pine oar]

Mm hate my self got all objectves and gauessed wrong 😭

[molten sable]

breh

[pine oar]

Giessed banshee ws a dayan ... im so bad on all the ghosts... only played upto professional

[ripe dragon]

Gotta wiggle in a locker to guess a Dayan lol

[spice plank]

And what?

[pine oar]

yeah well, no locker in sunny lol

[blissful ocean]

I just think it's pretty funny

[spice plank]

I'll never update XX there's no point

[tropic sequoia]

What does the thing under the match info mean? Like x7,40 ehat are these numbers?

[lyric oracle]

The difficulty multiplier

[tropic sequoia]

Im lvl6 rn what would the the apropriate dificulty level

[tawny oracle]

x2

[lyric oracle]

Not any custom games for the most part if you're brand new lol

[tawny oracle]

Intermediate or amateur should do it

[tropic sequoia]

Do i lvl up if i play on singleplayer ? I cant get in any match im getting insta kicked

[tawny oracle]

Yes you can lvl up

In fact it's better as singleplayer

[tropic sequoia]

Alright

[hallow bolt]

what are the ghost figures standing around in nells diner ??

[odd vale]

Anyone who has any video clips about the LoS issues please tag me and post in #videos a sample of it happening. Thank you.

[tender mural]

Why'd you delete your message mezzo

[ripe dragon]

Ohh they're part of Alan Wake! They're called Taken

[hallow bolt]

they're so creepy, what's the point of them ?

[odd vale]

Because there was already one made and pinned by another mod and I didn’t realize it.

[tender mural]

Oh yeah you right

[rare steppe]

Kormos so broken 🥲

[mossy mason]

Kormos is peak

[rare steppe]

Nah it gets you through walls

It was coming up stairs from basement whilst i was at the dining table on ridgeview and it got me

[mossy mason]

You read that it’s blind, get cocky, and then get wrecked because it hears you
(the killing through walls thing is def a bug)

[rare steppe]

Yes

[lyric oracle]

It will definitely be tweaked lol

As for the killing through walls thing wiki says " Due to having no line-of-sight, it cannot remember player locations between hunts and it will kill players by simply getting within 1.5 metres of them, ignoring obstacles such as furniture or walls" so actually may not be a bug :v

[modern flame]

@ancient veldt let me joi

game full I am lvl 11

[tired radish]

i have all achievements but i didn't get the badge

[modern flame]

Wanna play dm me UI need some helop

[prime elk]

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

[ripe dragon]

Literally standing still the other day like that scene from Jurassic Parc and it still grabbed me 😭🤣

[odd knoll]

i will say once the crashing and shit finally got fixed i havent minded the update i wish there was a little bit more to it for it being a 3 week event but the game is definitely not as bad as it was when customization first came out XD still janky but thats okay

[spice plank]

As I understand it, there's no point in waiting for a response regarding Los.

[analog widget]

-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.

[odd vale]

They’ve asked for samples. So, if anyone gets video they can post the clip on #videos and tag me.

[tranquil merlin]

can someone help me i cant send anything in troubleshooting yet

[wise oyster]

They can't open their game and get a normal ghost?

[tranquil merlin]

all i want to know is how do i fix my vc my friends cant hear me and i cant hear them even tho both our inputs work

[spice plank]

So I have to download the old version and shoot in the new one, right? The new one has a 26-second boost, while the old one has a 13-second boost

[odd vale]

I guess it’s to approach the team with the vids.

[odd vale]

No. Just the current version is fine.

We don’t ever encourage to use an older version.

[spice plank]

So just shoot and run around with the ghost and drop it?

[odd vale]

Yep

[spice plank]

Okay, I'll take it off now

[tranquil merlin]

please help

[odd vale]

Head to the KG Support Portal and submit a request for a ticket

[brittle cave]

does everyone have the problem where the game takes like 10 minutes to fully close

[tranquil merlin]

why what does it do

[odd knoll]

gets you in contact with kinetic games support.

[odd vale]

It makes a ticket to speak to a KG support agent

[rare steppe]

Does a shade in general, have a lower chance of trying for a hunt?

So e.g. if i am no where near the ghost room at 0 sanity and it hasnt hunted in a long time, is this always a shade?

[toxic ingot]

It wont hunt regardless the sanity you have if you're in his room

[odd knoll]

a shade wont do much of anything if you are in the ghost room

[rare steppe]

'if i am no where near the ghost room'

[loud gulch]

Shade a lil pussio ghost

[toxic ingot]

Well in that case, shade could be like any other ghost if you're nowhere in his room

[rare steppe]

Ah ok

[toxic ingot]

It has the same speed like every other lame ghost

Just a tips that if you dont have any interaction aswell while you're in its room, It could be a shade

[odd knoll]

if you hear the emf go off when you leave the room, or leave the room and come back to ghost writing thats when you start thinking of shade

[toxic ingot]

Yeah, it's similar to goryo showing its dots if were outside its room

Shade most likely to write and tinker with the environment if we're outside of their territory

[smoky jasper]

how many is one allowed to post?

[odd vale]

Only one per user would be fine.

[spice plank]

I even took a video with a stopwatch

[spice plank]

Did you take her away?

[odd vale]

Thank you. I have it.

[spice plank]

Can they fix it, or is this a new game mechanic?

[modern mauve]

She's only just taken the video ...

[odd vale]

I’ve no idea yet

[molten sable]

Mezzo does videos sent in #videos have to be in english?

[odd vale]

There is no set rule on that. I just hope it doesn’t haven’t hate speech or anything like that.

[wise oyster]

The disturbing part is that when they got the question, the devs couldn't give a simple "yes" or "no" answer.

[paper inlet]

Another puzzle from Alan Wake event was added. Since they're giving out id cards and badges in ttv drops that look like they're for christmas - which was six months ago - this would suggest that Kinetic Games is six months behind schedule with the game's development. So it'll be another six months before we get a polished, bug-free character update. Ngl im kinda impressed by their puzzle making skills

[drifting dust]

To be fair, currently it was Tom who was asked. I don’t expect the CM to know all the in depth game mechanics

[wise oyster]

Then why can't he pass along the very straightforward question without the extra steps?

[smoky jasper]

but why ask the community when it is the developers or QA that should know this

[drifting dust]

I believe he did, his response regarding it included “just in case the team asks” so him and Mezzo are doing their due diligence

[wise oyster]

all right, fair, that's different

[drifting dust]

No harm in being prepared yknow

[modern mauve]

Why you shouldn't be quick to judge

[odd vale]

Sorry that I wasn’t clear it was just in case they ask

[wise oyster]

no I get that, but the way it initally reads is that the devs don't know what's going on with their game.

[sour ore]

Plz bring back the tool belt

[faint quest]

Guys how do Ievel up fast in Phasmophobia

[sour ore]

VR is now extra annoying to place and grab gear off your character

I cant even grab the lighter half the time, and the journal is annoying to grab

[sly ether]

Set a custom game toas high a difficulty as you can handle.

[faint quest]

So some thing like insanity

[sly ether]

ifyou can handle it

[wise oyster]

If that was a request coming from the devs, it would not be a rush to judgment

[faint quest]

I’m a noob I just want to level up fast but I can’t put intermediate because I need levels

[sly ether]

like i like nightmare, but with a few tweaks that can make some parts easier but only loses a few 0.1s. a bit less points for easier win

[modern mauve]

It is because "the Devs" isn't just the people directly working on the game itself.

[sour ore]

I have a custom 10.32x diff no ev run preset

[faint quest]

I can’t put it because I need level

[modern mauve]

The developers is the whole studio

[sour ore]

but I don't care to rapidly level up anymore, I am already prestige 2

[odd vale]

It’s okay guys.

[sly ether]

oh well, at that point you just have to play and win a bit

[modern mauve]

They are a development studio lol

[wise oyster]

well forgive me for thinking a response about a question about game mechanics actually came from the people who work with the game's mechanics

[faint quest]

So you want me to level up till level 10 then keep Changing the diff each time I get a new one

[wise oyster]

That's like saying everyone at an accounting firm is an accountant.

[odd vale]

[sage spade]

get me involved. whats happenin

[sly ether]

guuuys, why so hostile. relax. have fun. die to ghosts

[rain whale]

Mama Mezzoooooo

[odd vale]

Hey, Skellys

If I had worded it properly this wouldn’t have happened.

[rain whale]

I don't care what they said. You will always be Mama Mezzo.

[rain whale]

Be a Kormos

[sour ore]

a game studio has a lot more than devs.
you have the developers that do the coding,
modelers that do the characters, levels, etc.
artwork directors that plan things out for things like player cards, assist in level design.
you have lighting people that do just that, lighting
and you have people resposbile for planing events, themes and stuff

[sly ether]

not your fault. you cant control people

[drifting dust]

That’s not on you, especially since we dont have to share our exact communications with them. To be honest I only did because the entitlement to answers gets to be a bit much at times. It was easier to just cut it quick

[sour ore]

being community manager = punching bag unfortunately

[drifting dust]

I get it, I want answers too, but that’s not on us. Especially while the devs are still trying to get their shit together after the bad update

[odd vale]

Often the same for us, too.

[sour ore]

and some game studios are just awful about communication and transparency

the community mods and managers over at Xreal get hung out to dry for months at a time

[rain whale]

CMs are the punching bags and mods are the babysitters

[sage spade]

what even is the supposed issue? i gather something to do with LoS but thats.... all i have.

[sly ether]

idk why it is so hard, honestly

[livid leaf]

After using a couple taro cards, why can’t I pull anymore yet it still shows there’s some in the deck?

[modern mauve]

Not everything has to be transparent though, people expect to know the ins and outs of every business decision

[odd vale]

We get the brunt of it all, really

[sly ether]

you should be abletopull until they vanish entirely

[sour ore]

Discord mods in a game server are treated no different than a CM in my experience

and sometimes they are the same role, depending on the game server

[livid leaf]

This is the 3rd time this has happened to me /: it hasn’t fully disappeared so the deck isn’t finished yet it’s not letting me pick the deck back up & pull anymore card

[delicate yarrow]

What’s cm

[sour ore]

Community manager

[rain whale]

With my medical condition, I might not last that long and yet I became a mod in a crochet server and it's been almost 2 years, even 3 years

[sage spade]

is there a place to go to learn more about "los issues"?

[drifting dust]

We aren’t 100% sure if there is. That’s the issue

[sage spade]

whats the allegation? I saw a video in the channel showing the ghost gains speed for longer?

[tender lodge]

I am new to the game, and i dont seem to be able to get voice recognition working, i wanted to ask what is the difference between "voice" and "system voice" in the voice settings?

[rain whale]

If Voice is not working, you can try System Voice. It works for me but it is quite situational.

[modern mauve]

The ghosts currently the 26s to speed up to max, it was 13s before

[tender lodge]

Okay thx

[sage spade]

ok so its different now and we dont know if intended or not

[odd vale]

LoS Inquiry
The line of sight timing (from 13 to 26) is confirmed to be a bug and will be fixed in a future update.

[modern mauve]

I personally think it's just a balancing thing because of the new animations and maybe because of the Aswang's 17ish seconds to max

Nvm lmao

[modern mauve]

Small query, did you mean from 13 to 26?

[odd vale]

I thought it was cut in half. It was doubled?

[wise oyster]

yeah

[odd vale]

-# I’m dumb and was just trying to relay info and may have written it backwards lmao

[modern mauve]

Cool beans

[odd vale]

Fixed

[wise oyster]

no worries,thank you Mezzo!

That's gonna make Aswang interesting when it's fixed then

[modern flame]

Can somone help me get my game brither so i can see in dark I want it to look clean please

[odd vale]

What?

[wise oyster]

most people use a filter in the Nvidia app. Most people that use something to brighten the game, anyway

[modern flame]

I need filter settings

[spice plank]

it has just become twice as big as Los

[odd vale]

Yeah. I found out.

[lime token]

What's the community goal % looking like?

[spice plank]

Thank you for your reply, you are the best moderator

[frank crane]

IT is the Queen Mezzo!

[odd vale]

I’m just me.

[frank crane]

_> Im just me as she says

the Mods here are totally awesome 🙂

[earnest solstice]

Got trolled by a Hantu last night during the weekly challenge. Ghost walked within 3ft of me and went after my wife, so I thought Kormos or Banshee. Kept testing it and getting different behavior during hunt so I chose Mimic and left. Something’s broken…😂

[odd vale]

-# I am terrible with compliments.

[frank crane]

Can i ask a very fair question? Who is excellent with Compliments?!

[last drift]

97

[void gyro]

Got a video of the ghost changing forms; one of the challenges was to get a video of the ghost. Why didn't it count? 🤣

[last drift]

Thatd be me. Im the best. But this is #phasmo-chat

[last drift]

For some reason ability videos are not the same.

[frank crane]

lol b.c this game has a bit of issues still

[void gyro]

Ah. 💀

[last drift]

That's actually been a thing for a while. That's not a bug. It appears to be intentional.

[lyric oracle]

That's not a good reason lol

[last drift]

I didn't say it was a reason. I just said that's the explanation. Lol

[last drift]

Credit where credits due.
You're absolutely right.

[lyric oracle]

Mist form not counting is irritating too, tho it's also kinda not the ghost.. still it says FORM

[frank crane]

yea my friend and I ran into an issue where the power was killed

we ruled out EM5 b.c well our other 2 clues with EMF5 wouldve led it to be a Jinn, turns out it was a Jinn xD

[carmine depot]

if you turn on too many light switches that can also break the power

[lyric oracle]

When you turned breaker back on were all the lights off or did they stay on?

[last drift]

I see. Jinn turned on a light. Overload.

[frank crane]

but we didnt have any lights on

[carmine depot]

then how did you know the power was ever on?

[lyric oracle]

This story has more holes than swiss cheese!

[frank crane]

We turned on the light to the hallway, we set up our cameras and other things, i turn off the lights when doing the Spirit box

when she came back in to place the book and salt, when she tried to turn on the light it wouldnt turn on, so she went to check the breaker and it was off.

But then my friend came back to place the items, she saw EMF5 and we were just purplexed that it was a Jinn b.c the break shut off without any light being on

[carmine depot]

i mean with the current state of the game i wouldn't be surprised if jinn gained the power to shut off the breaker

[lyric oracle]

We would have heard all about it by now lol

[carmine depot]

idk i haven't heard much about jinns in general. maybe it's an occasional circumstantial thing

[lyric oracle]

Because there's no issue with them :p

[carmine depot]

also possible

[frank crane]

it was weird

[deep spruce]

Really like the new mechanics for the Kormos. Ghost being blind is pretty fun

[last drift]

Honestly , with the state of the game , I wouldn't doubt it

Somehow adding two new ghosts and custom characters, and now we've broken sunny meadows restricted

[lyric oracle]

I mean.. that was likely due to door reworks no? lol

[tropic osprey]

Does someone know what the max prestige is now?

[smoky jasper]

its rare enough to have missed it

[smoky jasper]

4000

[lyric oracle]

I doubt it tbh

[lime holly]

highest prestige and level is MMMCMXCIX-9999 (p3999 level 9999)

[smoky jasper]

its hard to prove a negative tho

[lyric oracle]

But it's easy to prove the positive :p

[smoky jasper]

whats the positive of that?

[lyric oracle]

You get a clip of a Jinn turning off a breaker.. lol

[smoky jasper]

but what if it can do that but just doesnt

[lime holly]

thats his point

[lyric oracle]

You can wait for as long as you need, it can't so it won't ever happen.

People did this when they didn't believe written in books also cannot be thrown lol

A negative claim only needs a single piece of evidence to break it, but anecdotal tales aren't that.

[round ingot]

is phasmaphobia made by the same creators of alan wake

[smoky jasper]

no

[wise oyster]

man, that'd be nice

[round ingot]

then why would it say "phasmaphobia,by alan wake"

[lyric oracle]

Because it's a crossover event? And he's an Author.

[lime holly]

Phasmophobia…
…
By Alan Wake

[wise oyster]

it's a crossover event. Alan Wake is a writer, hence giving the event a book title sounding name

[lyric oracle]

It's by Alan Wake; the character. The company who make Alan Wake aren't called Alan Wake :p

[wise oyster]

Remedy Entertainment

[lyric oracle]

Would be the craziest reveal ever, 6 years into development they suddenly drop in the load screen "It was us all along!"

[smoky jasper]

Kinetic Entertainment when?

[wise oyster]

"Hey guys all those bugs for years were pretty funny, right? Anyway, here's the real game."

[last drift]

The event is taking place as a crossover with another video game.

Alan Wake is a horror series about an author trapped in his own story.

In this event, we're trapped in a story. Called Phasmophobia. By Alan wake.

[icy briar]

W lore

[trim kite]

Guys I have a question. Im new to phasmaphobia and im at the training section right now. Specifically at the hunt area of the training. What am I supposed to do? There's not a single hunt happening and the clock is showing 0. (Also yeah I know a lot about the game I Just started playing tho)

[last drift]

Imagine having writers block and going on vacation. And waking up in your hotel room to see pages you've never written.

And then they start coming true.

[last drift]

Go get in locker

[trim kite]

I Am in a locker

[last drift]

O k restart the tutorial.

[trim kite]

Well that's nice...

[last drift]

Well , you missed something , and I really don't wanna walk you through the whole thing again lol.

[trim kite]

Weird

[last drift]

So you may as well just restart the whole thing.

[trim kite]

Do i get anything by completing the tutorial? Because I know a lot about the game tbf

[last drift]

You get an achievement that only about two percent of the community have

[trim kite]

...You're kidding right?-

[last drift]

they don't complete the tutorial. No. Not joking

[trim kite]

Welp time to restart this whole tutorial

[round ingot]

do i need a video of the ghost for a perfect run?

[lime holly]

Only if it is optional objective

[lament lichen]

Have they fixed the weird stutter when looking at the environment whilst moving yet? Was killing my eyes

[slow spade]

Nope, not yet

[lament lichen]

Nooooo any word on it? Have they at least acknowledged it?

[trim kite]

Yeah so like, im back at this part and I still dont have any hunts occurring

Maybe the game is bugged?

[opaque verge]

Before I report a bug can someone help check for me? I am on Elderwood Palace Lodge and the extra lighter in the office bug out and you can't drop them or light any fire light after or smudge

[slow spade]

I'm not sure, its been in the game ever since the console release and I don't think we have had any word about it

[opaque verge]

want to make sure It not just my game

[lime holly]

Do u farm with solo 14.47x strat on coffee world?

[slow spade]

yup

[last drift]

Honestly... at this point with how the game is with that recent update , I wouldn't doubt it. Adding two ghosts, custom models, and some animations somehow breaks sunny meadows , not being restricted.

[slow spade]

i cant do edgefield - but i cant do cww for long periods of time either, i have to take breaks like every 30m

[last drift]

Luckily , you already know a bunch about the game and you're right at the last part , you're ready , just come back in a few months when they patch it and get your achievement

[trim kite]

Oh that's fun.. Sooooo, I guess the tutorial is just, broken for now?

[atomic leaf]

I remember when the game used to be smooth as butter 😔 then 0.11 came out

[opaque verge]

Anyone?

[last drift]

I didn't say that

I just said I'd be not surprised

[slow spade]

😔

[trim kite]

Yeah Im saying that it's probably broken

[lime holly]

Ah. I been trying 14x and it feels nice

[last drift]

Okay , and that's fair , but for the record , I never said such a thing

[slow spade]

14x edgefield?

[trim kite]

Yeah I know, never said You said that lol

[lime holly]

14x coffee world

[atomic leaf]

coffee world 🥀

[trim kite]

NVM IT WORKS

[slow spade]

oh? just 100% player speed?

[last drift]

Yes 🙂 thank you

[lime holly]

75 player speed, hiding spots very high

[trim kite]

I JUST GOT A HEART ATTACK BY THE SUDDEN HUNT LOL

[last drift]

Okay , so either it's bugged or someone's missing something like a step or something.

[atomic leaf]

I was gonna say the shimmy has to be goated

[slow spade]

oh lol were doing that loop then

[lime holly]

yee. The shimmy is nice as u dont have to juggle between smudges and media recording with the janky animations

[trim kite]

I walked back outside the hunt room then back inside and the hunt just randomly started
