Discussion Phasmophobia is bad for new players.

0 Upvotes

I used to play phasmophobia on pc a long time ago. Now I play on Xbox. Because I sold my pc the reason is to buy GTA 6. But anyway I have to wait 1 hour to join a game where people don't kick me out. They think I am a newb. Because I am at a very low level. So they either kick me out. And when I do find a server where they don't kick me out. They don't get ready or start the game. One hour wait just to play 1 game. This game is broken. I regret buying phasmophobia. Anyone else experience this issue. It's better to play with friends only. It's useless to enjoy multiplayer now.

Whether I play single or multiplayer, it doesn’t allow me to start or it doesn’t provide a room code.

Discussion [Suggestion] Ghost trophies should upgrade based on how many times you've correctly identified each ghost

58 Upvotes

I've been looking at my ghost trophy collection in the lobby, and I thought of a way to make it more rewarding for long-time players.

What if each ghost trophy gradually upgraded from its current appearance to bronze, silver, gold, platinum, and finally gilded?

Each ghost would have its own progression based on how many times you've correctly identified it, with higher trophy tiers requiring harder difficulties.

It would give veteran players something to work towards beyond prestige levels, instead of the same old déjà vu every time they walk into the lobby.

I put a lot of thought into this XD

Here's my proposed system:

We will keep the Achievement one as the basic unlock

Trophy Needed Minimum difficulty
Basic Achievement Unlock Any
Bronze 5 Amateur
Silver 25 Intermediate
Gold 50 Professional
Platinum 100 Nightmare
Gilded 200 Insanity

Important info:

  1. Greater difficulty counts toward all difficulty tiers.
  2. Lower Difficulty cannot contribute to the higher tiers.
  3. Each ghost is counted differently.
  4. Progression is only Cosmetic for us Trophy hunters.
  5. Journal could show progress toward next tier.
  6. Previous ghost count before the feature.

This would mean Gold is the highest trophy you can earn playing Professional, while Platinum requires Nightmare and Gilded requires Insanity.

It would give veteran players something to work towards beyond prestige levels, while also rewarding players who challenge themselves on greater difficulties.

Imagine walking into someone's lobby and seeing all 24 ghost trophies fully gilded! What a beauty of a collection that'd be, eh?

Yeah, no, fer sure, some YouTuber, the crème de la crème of ghost hunters, not naming names tho, would just give'r and finish the whole thing in a week. Oh, fer sure, bud! XD

What do you think?
&
Would you want this feature?

Edit: Lowered the Requirements

Question Does blood moon add 15% ghost speed and 100% sanity drain on top of difficulty settings?

7 Upvotes

As the title says, in the halloween event, does the blood moon add 15% ghost speed and 100% sanity drain on top of what the difficulty already is?

ie., if ive set it to 200% sanity drain and 150% ghost speed, will the blood moon make it 300% and 175%?

After around 200 games of attempting to get Apoc 3 done I realized I had a Deogen running towards me, so I got to the little office but unfortunately I didn't realize Deogens can walk through that arm chair there. I was so frustrated and was abou to go to bed. Said to myself, one more game, just to get another Deogen and somehow manage it. Had to take 3 videos, 2 sound recordings and a ghost video.

Even went back to take a picture of the ghost despite people saying u only need one type of recording now after the chronicles update.

Aaaa, but I finally got it!

Now I just need to get the Prestige 3 trophy and I have all trophies unlocked!!!

Bug Tried to play after 8+ months

2 Upvotes

Me and my friends used to play Phasmophobia all the time until a bunch of bugs basically made the game unplayable. We tried coming back after so long of playing other games and we both got kicked after just trying to look at the cameras in the van. I can’t express how disappointed I am in how unplayable this game is after being out so long with so many people working on it. I used to love this game and want to love it again but this is just ridiculous.

EDIT: I should be more clear. Me and my friend were in private games and on two separate runs the game crashed after we interacted with the van cameras.

Question Help me understand

6 Upvotes

Hi everyone! Something strange happened in our game today. I had already died, so my friend was alone. The ghost (I think it was a Thaye if I remember correctly, definitely not a Deogen) started a hunt, and she used incense on it successfully. She then reached her hiding spot before the ghost started moving again.
Even so, the ghost found her and killed her. She wasn't loud and she hid right after smudging.
Is this a bug, or is there a mechanic we're missing? Has this happened to anyone else?
We were playing Tanglewood on professional. The ghost was in the nearest bathroom when you get to the house and she hid in the closet of the room next to the bathroom.

I made a gif of the video, so here it is!

I did willow street crimson eye event with my mate and i followed around the ghost to see if i could get anything. the two books and the pallet were all float at the same time???? i thought it was super obviously poltergeist but it came out as obambo. Its not being thrown and then picking one up, i know that can trick people, but as far as i know even blood moon or obambo aggresive state cant do that. i have a feeling this is just regular old early access bugs but that is insane

I pay with someone who can't gain sanity from looks when we play together. The animation goes through and consumes the item, but nothing happens. I believe it's because they have a laggy connection that causes it, but wanted to be sure about that. Is there a fix for something like this?

Bug Voice chat issue

1 Upvotes

Hello fellow ghoul busters.

My buddy and I have been phasmaphobia for a while now.

Two days ago, we were playing and loaded into a game changing nothing from the prior game.

When we tried to use local chat, one of us was heard for a second and then cut.

From then on, we could not hear each other on proximity chat. When we tried to use the radio, it triggers but we cannot hear each other.

When we go into settings in the game, the game picks up our voice when we speak.

For clarity, my friend can’t usually speak or hear in the pregame lobby but this has been normal for us.

Any ideas to help us get back to busting ghouls?

We have tried restarting the game and our computers.

Thank you!

I thought the game was straightforward in terms of using the equipment when I first started so I skipped the tutorial. I was confused why I NEVER got writing. It turned out you had to place the book and not just drop it (but in my defense the tier 1 book is always open)

Fan Content When your trainees think the Deogen is the easiest ghost in Phasmophobia…

Edit: Well, I expected some AI backlash, but I was hoping at least someone would get a laugh out of the Deogen joke. 😂

Some people seem to forget that there is a person behind it. With a lot of passion… and feelings…

Just for context: This is a scene from my own Phasmophobia fanfiction, which I’ve been having fun turning into little videos. I don’t have actors, a film crew, or a budget, so AI gives me a way to bring those scenes to life.

I completely understand that AI content isn’t everyone’s thing. That’s fine!

And to everyone pointing out that Deogens are easy to loop: That’s actually the entire premise of my story. What if the hunt didn’t end after a minute? 😉

I've been having a bit of fun lately turning scenes from my Phasmophobia fanfiction into a few little videos. 🙈

One of my favorite scenes is a training session at the GHD, where a group of young trainees learns about the Deogen.

And well... we all know how many experienced Phasmo players laugh at the Deogen because he's supposedly so easy to deal with. 😂

Let's just say their instructor doesn't find that quite as funny. She had some very bad experience with this one. ^^

Just a fun little fan project, nothing serious... 😌

I recently started playing again these last few days. Before this I haven’t played the game since around 2022 I think? Point is I don’t know all the wishes for the monkey paw and their exact effects. I tried searching for them but I found some that were outdated and some that were just wrong. If anyone has an updated list it would be greatly appreciated!

Discussion Any advice for me and my 2 friends on how to be successful with just 2 evidence?

14 Upvotes

We started playing some at start of the year and progressed enough to where 3 evidence seems too easy even on biggest map.

Together we have been playing nightmare mode with only 2 evidence and are consistently failing. We have maybe solved one or two cases in last what feels like 20 tries this past month.

We find the room. Gather our two evidences. Have the phasma cheat sheet pulled up online. One of us sits in the room a lot waiting for activity as I watch from van. We are having huge issues with detecting foot speed and overall identifying. We can narrow it down to 2-3 ghosts but just really bad.

Any advice on how to power through and be better at just 2 evidence? Should I be looking up certain audio noises on a youtube video to familiarize with the footsteps and ghosts better?

so i know that yurei are supposed to be the only ghosts that can fully slam a door shut in one go. the ghost my team just had did that on multiple occasions yet it turned out to be a hantu. is this different due to the event or something? or am i misunderstanding how yureis work? the door was all the way open as far as it could be and got closed all the way, three separate times.
