What’s the video for all the riddles and little hints for the upcoming map, did you make a video for that?
40:40 for anyone wondering. THIS IS NOT TRUE. Orbs are the same for mimic as it is for other ghosts. Orbs are in the favorite room ghost room regardless of a mimic or not a mimic. I tried to say this in stream but unfortunately he did not see it.
I don't know if it still happens but if you turn the flashlight off while it's not in your hands and then you switch to it, it'll be turned on. Has gotten me killed a few times.
Didn’t learn anything try again
In response to you talking too much: I love it. It makes the videos less awkward, and I can listen and follow along even if watching isn’t a priority when I have the video playing. Granted I did enjoy the tension during hunts when push-to-talk wasn’t a feature yet, but I’m glad you “talk too much.”
Well done! Thank you for doing this Insym
Gonna be switching to text mode from now on
speed…speed….stupidness..
thanks man. insym could you make a tutorial or how to understand the game conrad paranormal pi as i bought it time ago, and never played it. and now so many stuff added as its full release. i just wanted to understand it better if you re new to it. cuz really wanna play that game, or if someone can share a video how to play and understand that game, ill be really thankfull.
I have been told Mimic orbs has diffrent motion.
Your excitement about Phasmo is so contagious it made my friend and I want to be good on this game. Thank you Insym <3
For ouija and text you are always stuck in the menu until you use „goodbye“, but then you cannot take an interaction photo even though there‘s still emf
The best thing about candle is that in the apocalypse challenge you can use candle to get the EMF objective done during the hunt.
A few tricks I've discovered with testing rumors or Discord advice since Ascension.
– If you take a photo of a Phantom in its DOTS phase passing through, you do get the Ghost photo, and the Phantom will not be present, much the same as taking a photo during a Ghost Event.
– As DOTS now track the ghost's physical location, that makes it viable as a Spirit Box tracker.
– Against all rumors, a change by a factor of 5 on the truck's EMF monitor (from 0 to 5, from 2 to 7, etc.) does NOT confirm EMF 5. This was confirmed against a Moroi. I theorize that whatever causes EMF 6 changes on the board (from 0 to 6, etc.) is ending up rolling 6 – 1… which makes 5.
– Because Sanity Medication restores over a period of time, you can waste multiple doses accidentally by not waiting for the full value. Multiple meds stack: Four bottles of snake oil at 25 apiece will bring you up to 100 if you chug them in the same second. But if you chug all four while at 75 sanity, you will completely waste three bottles.
– The Tripod is currently a large object ghosts can interact with, making them more likely to be targeted than cameras. They produce EMF signatures when touched, regardless of a successful knocking over or not.
– If you're worried about the issue of a ghost seeing you through floors due to imperfections in the models, check with a DOTS sensor (particularly T3) or UV light. They will shine through such gaps.
– "Hide and Seek" on text mode is dangerous; you can not withdraw from the board while it counts down.
– Motion Sensors are powerful tools to test for Banshee, Wraith, and Phantom. Sit in a corner with multiple sensors on the path to you and an EMF under your feet. A Banshee and Phantom will ping them all lighting up to you, then lighting up going away. Banshees do this VERY often, far more so than their screech, and leave no EMF, though a Phantom will leave EMF 2 and do it LESS often in general. Wraith will leave an EMF signature and poof on you, ONLY lighting up to walk away. EMF + Motion Sensor is a three-in-one test.
Give me a tip how to get my friend out of the van with this awesome t3 cams, these dwellers are brutally fixed in place man
I would love to see insanity mode on all big maps, we don’t get enough big maps content !!
Is it really fair to count a bug as a hidden mechanic?
side note on the tts for voice recognition, if you click hide and seek for the ouija board, you cannot exit its ui until after the countdown and it burns.
44:15 "what are we testing for? speed, speed…STUPIDNESS"
man poor yokai xd IT DIDNT CHOOSE TO BE STUPID
Another bug I have experienced with the flashlight, is that when you turn it off or on with the special button while you aren't holding then switch to it it will return to whatever state it was when you were holding it. So if you had it on, and then ran from a ghost using your lighter and turned the flashlight off with the special button, if you scroll through your items again to say get to the incense you and you scroll past the flashlight it will turn back on when you select it.
Something I found surprising is that Yokai don't have guaranteed Spirit Box.
Since in singleplayer you won't be talking much except to the ghost. So my thought process was that the Spirit Box made it so you HAD to talk to the Yokai which could potentially proc its ability to hunt early.
And this information held true because never once (until recently) had I ever had a Yokai that didn't have it.
phantoms also continue the ghost event even after a photo is taken.
30:15 bug or not, If you do stuff around the breaker and the crucifix is further away, you can tell if a hunt was stopped if the breaker is still on
Imagine learning new mechanic in teaching new mechanic 19:00
3:20 would spiritbox work it you have on light in little room and be in other room?
14:49 : just pull out your little boy and wait, If the ghost blows it, you know it likes it or not
Hello sir, If it's a baby ghost model, does It Has a lesser line (or area) of sight?
Edit : And can ghost use crucifix when you're holding it?
Very nice. Good tips. I also missed sound sensor thing
I think they should make the tier 3 UV into an electric UV lantern! That has a wider range than the tier 1 UV glow stick that’d be a big upgrade!
Weird thought: Insym on a quiz game show. Specialist subject: Phasmophobia (video game)
when Insym talks about dots movement it reminds me about the Simpsons episode where Millhouse talks about his favourite water sprinkler
You can change the position of the sound sensor, just by clicking on it, you dont have to bring it to your hand;)
1:30 Haven't used a flashlight in so long. Glowstick OP. The only use for flashlights now for me is tossing it on the ground to light up a hallway to see a ghost during a hunt.
I forgot to mention for future video ideas, I do think a map guide would be cool. Like show people where cursed objects are. Show the best places to loop and do myling and yokai tests. Show the best hiding spots or the cool make shift hiding you’ve discovered like the brown chair in the farmhouse or the o shit places that you use as a last resort. Show Breaker box locations and yeah worst and best ghost rooms and best cursed possessions like you said
Why are you always yelling at me like a ghost, when I start your video. Next time I'll smash a crucifix in your screen!
I know it'd be a mammoth undertaking, but I'd love a video covering the maps. Sometimes I feel the urge to play on a map that I'm not used to, only to spend forever just navigating and learning the map while also trying not to die to the ghost. There's so much nuance to the maps that I truly struggle with them, so having a guide – even a fairly shallow one that only skims the basics or most useful tips – would help to erode that invisible barrier to entry.
If you do think about doing the map video then instead of doing all of the maps in a single video you could do a video each for each of the maps.
Is it only my observation or do the light switches/secondary lights appear darker when they're off if you see them with night vision? and they'll appear brighter/normal when they're turned on? for example see the light switch in the garage 4:43 for when it's off and 5:11 when it's on
SPOLIER FOR NEW MAP
are we sure its the lighthouse because on the notice board there is a church/cathedral and what looks like a crypt in the yellowy-ish photos?
just a thought.
