hello there
When you upload a video it makes me so happy 😀 keep up the good work nuzzgard 🙂
I can't believe the nerves of steel you have playing solo
They should also let smudge stick be lit up from candle
This update Σ(☉｡☉)!
Ahh, so they're focusing on buffing the Parabolic for now. I see, i agree this will encourage the use of Parabolic more.
However, a player like me who likes solo plays and DISLIKES the big maps simply because i get lost easily and do not have a minimap with me, so this buff is pointless as Parabolic is only useful for the bigger maps. So, in line with my previous statements, i can't see this as "encouragement" enough.
Oh and good thing they're fighting them exploits of the EMF thing 👍
My fovirite gamer
finally we see our screens
bit annoying going solo in school now tho
i get why they changed the activity thing for the emf, i dont get why people complain about it in the first place tho. its not like any other tool has more than one use. even the activity reading is very situational and was never that big of a deal since youre were more than likely in the building at that time. take the book for example. you just drop it, leave it there and eventually you will, or will not, get ghost writing. emf5 you can go in there, drop the reader and either you get a reading at some point or not. combined with a camera you can check the book from the van, just like you can check for the activity. its not cheating imo, its knowing how the game works. again i like the change, just thought now that this is over i throw my 2 cents in.
I think it might be a cool idea to have the activity chart be accurate, but only update once per 15-30 seconds. that way to discover EMF-5 from the chart, you would need 1 or more people inside, tracking everything thats happening, and radioing it to the person in the van. all activity would overlap, so thered be no way to tell solo. I do think that might be cool.
With the randomized amount, the activity graph doesnt really have a purpose, its just kind of there for hte atmosphere
Wait, how could you figure out EMF 5 from the truck's activity monitor? I don't know how that even works, actually.
wonder what "slightly" means for ghosts wondering. I have only had one or two cases where the ghost went a decent ways away from its favorite room, and each time, I loved it… Hopefully they do more with this. Like giving the Yurei a much higher wonder chance than other ghosts, since its weakness is that smudge sticks make it stop wandering… doesn't make sense to lock the ghost to a room if it rarely leaves it anyways, and giving the wraith a slightly higher chance to wander, because I feel like it might wind up in some interesting places if it is allowed to walk through walls.
I noticed a big problem with queuing with people, people are too finicky and are too willing to just leave cause someone is a lower level than they are. lol
I like the fact how nuzzguard has the balls to fool around and experiment on professional mode and then theres the community squeezing their stress ball on easy difficulty 🤣
Some great changes with this build
Ugh I rarely get an Emf5 unless i camp in there yelling at the ghost. Time for suicide by emf. Maybe make them more prone to making emf5 then
with this I hope we get to see more ghost manifestations. it's very hard to get a picture of the ghost for the objective even in professional and I play solo 🙁
I'm torn on some of these changes. We think it's fun to have someone stay in the van as sort of a command center. We've talked about how cool it would be if they offered more things to do in the van that could help the team.
Looking at the replies to this patch on twitter, a TON of people are furious about the activity reader change. I didn't even know it was a thing. But I agree that it doesn't sound fun to do. Admittedly, the activity feed doesnt really have much use atm but it's still a work in progress game, so things are allowed to be meh right now, and worked on later
That beard is Moses-esqu
How exactly the wander works?
"Prevent discovering emf 5 without going in"
Me when reach 20 sanity: placing emf in front of video camera
I'm really excited to see Dknighter's finished vision for the Parabolic Mic. I'm hearing impaired so I often have trouble catching the ghost's audio cues, so the idea of having a consistent tool that helps account for that weakness of mine when it comes to narrowing down the ghost room is something I really like.
This game is a massive success! It might not be perfect but in a years time this game will more than likely have a lot more tools to use more maps and that’s why I love this game 😁
Can't wait to see the latest test play!
The Phasmophobia dev did more in three days then Bethesda did after any of their games launched
Discord?
I really enjoy the activity meter update after learning that I could pretty much ensure the emf 5 through it felt a bit dull
Hum, I understand why they did it and I can't be upset about it, but I've seen some emf ghosts not giving me more than 4 on the reader and only with the chart I've been able to see emf 5 in those cases.
Am i the only one not getting any updates for it on steam?

For me personally, the EMF activity monitor thing didn't really work for me because an EMF activity spike of 4 could be anything (such as multiple ghost interactions that added up to 4). I would still have to go in with the EMF reader anyway to confirm the EMF Level 5 since I almost always saw a "false" EMF 5 through it. The change just makes me feel less bad about not reading that monitor properly lol.
This means for solo (which I don't do much) it wasn't useful and for multiplayer you needed at least one person in the truck, which in my group never happens because we are newbie scaredy cats.
I definitely noticed the wandering of the ghost location.
Me: I'm a REAL GAMER!!! HORROR GAMES DONT SCARE ME!!!!!!
Me 5 minutes later hiding under my blankie watching phasmophobia videos: AAAAAAA there's the bitch no no no no no no
