My friends are incredibly glad that I'll walk in and start screaming the ghosts name in an effort to get it to try and hunt for the crucifix objective. I feel less bad about my girlfriend staying in the van and watching on the camera now that she's got all the equipment, less expensive of I die Smudge sticks makes a hunt take longer to happen, by the way. When a light starts flickering/front door slams shut get the smudge stick out, light it and book it to a closet, gives you a few more seconds.

That happens a lot less often now that they've actually made private lobbies a thing that works.

They're for the bigger maps. Sometimes its hard to pin down where the ghost is so using the microphone to get a vague direction and then punting down a bunch of sound sensors can get you a fairly solid bead on it. Especially if the fucker refuses to set off emf/isn't cold.

Not really, on harder difficulties the ghost gets mad at you pretty much the second you go through the door, so there's still a lot of tension.

Non vr yes, no friends no.

Also Ouija boards can just take you out of the prep phase and immediately initiate a hunt.

Yeah we only found out because i asked the board a question and my girlfriend who is always hiding in the van calling me a coward for not wanting to go into basements noticed the timer drop to 0

I think it loses a little bit of the charm if you all know exactly what you're doing. It does become a very rote "oh that objective sucks, lets not do that one, ok we've got all the detecting gear spread out ok its here dump all the gear in here hello Maria Wilson Maria Wilson PLEASE HUNT SO I CAN GET 10 DOLLARS". Basically i think once you complete a few missions it should turn up the spook and crazy. I hope the dev does.

Huh, that's weird, i've never actually seen that bug. https://trello.com/b/9QrnqQ1j/phasmophobia He's got a feature map/bug fix, etc up if you're interested.

I don't like them just because it takes loving forever for anything to happen. Really wish you could bring at couple extra people to those maps.

It's player by player, but my girlfriend's gaming setup is in the same room so even though she was locked outside, her shouting came through my mic and let the ghost know where I was

It certainly would stop me from just scattering my equipment loving everywhere each time I think I've found the room.

Yeah i played a bunch of games with vets earlier who would go in, figure out what the ghost was, do the easy objectives (smudge stick, motion detector, etc) and then just leave. Even on professional you'll be out before the ghost gets mad. Kinda sucked. I've had much more fun pissing off the ghost so i can get a crucifix prevention going. Also calling the ghost a stupid motherfucker can and will break two crucifix's and trigger a hunt. Guess how i know.

I haven't had any of us load into the asylum without a member of my group crashing, so maybe he should work on that

We tried the asylum again. It didn't spawn the key and the ghost immediately was visible through the locked front door. Alright ghost, we get it. We'll leave.

I'd like it if some ghosts don't get angry enough to murder you, tbh. Or different deaths at least. Just a poltergiest killing me by beaning me with a wrench or something.

Greader posted:Or have the ghost "imitate" a player by basically having that players character model walk past from one room to another in front of another player, disappearing once it is out of sight. Might lead to some fun moments of "Hey, did I not just see you walk in the bathroom? "No?". This happens

Babe Magnet posted:so did you hang out outside of the house for 5 minutes psyching yourself up or something because the ghost can gently caress with you but can't actually try and kill you for 300 seconds after the game begins on amateur. Not even "after the game begins". You have to open the front door of the house. Which means that all the powergaming nerds refuse to open the door until all the equipment is stacked on it.

Drakenel posted:I remember that generally throwing the crucifix in the middle of the haunt room is pretty good at nailing its first couple hunts, as the ghost usually fucks around in proximity to said room. Most of my experience with "get a hunt stopped by a crucifix" is i'll pop two down to cover a fairly large room, call the ghost a motherfucker and it'll break both of them before immediately trying to murder me.
