In this video I show you everything about the new hunt system in Phasmophobia! I absolutely love it. Hunts are now so much more scary! But you are still very safe if you know what you are doing! Especially with the new sprinting system! I explain how everything works and how you can keep yourself safe! I hope this video helped keep you safe in Phasmophobia! Much love and see you during the streams 😀

What do you think of the new hunts?
I'd love some more ghost sounds. A good one would be a woman crying or a man groaning (painfully). Maybe add a baby ghost model since we have mylings now, and add a crying baby ghost. But what I really want is intelligent AI. If I run into a room and it sees me go in there for multiple hunts, it should check the lockers/closets. It is a hunt after all. I want it to look for me, not just randomly path into rooms. Maybe even add in keys and allow us to lock certain doors, but the ghost has a chance to unlock the door. Imagine being in a room and hearing it fiddling the locks trying to open the door, I'd shit myself lol.
yeeeeh even right after this new update comes out the fursttt thing i test is the glow stick xD ive been using it even before this new rework , now it is sooooooo brightttt and can see where to go during hunt xD thankiesss Insym !
Demons should have a new and special hunt only for them at zero sanity after a number of failed hunts. A super hunt where the entire houses electronics go haywire, lights on and off, all the electronic equipment going nuts, objects everywhere flying in all directions and the ability to teleport to an adjacent room during a hunt and extra speed. The emf reader should give emf5 for the whole hunt. After failing a super hunt the ghost should go back to normal as it expended it's energy.
Hunts need to be even more dangerous. It's still way too easy to hide. And many times the ghost doesn't even seem to care that my electrical equipment is on. Ghost needs to be more aggressive in locating players.
So ghost can hear you even with "push to talk" enabled?
This game is nuts. I just got it yesterday after watching your new content and played for a few hours, all of my dreams were about this game last night.
20:18 am i the only one who thinks the crucifix looks red
When you play everything looks so easy…
Can you have your equipment on and drop it on the floor? Such as if you left your flash light on but then dropped it on the floor with you in the closet or locker.
My friend and I got hunted yesterday, we had santiy at just over 50%, thought we were good. It strayed to hunt, she silently ran away, I immediately went "oh f#ck" and then ran. Got away into a room but forgot to turn my flashlight off 😂 stuck my head in the wall and waited for death
I was wondering as to why I was getting ganked all the time. I’d be way out of site and hiding and still dying. But after this video I now know they detect equipment.. good to know lol
The best thing about this update is that they finally added the H key on the keyboard!
Is there any explanation of WHERE the ghost starts a hunt? There have been games where the ghost room is identified and all evidence is found, however, a hunt starts, I go to run away from said ghost room, and run INTO the ghost on the other side of the map. I'm assuming it could be random, or a certain ghost type? Just wondering if anyone has an explanation on that.
Great video though! Thanks for covering and explaining things for us! <3
why is there no chat? was this not live?
I've been leaving 2 EMF's by the ghost-room and referring to the two glitching-out during hunts as "The McDonald's alarm" cause the sound reminds me of the sounds the machines made in the back
I think it would be cool if the broken crucifix glowed slightly during a hunt, like it’s still trying to protect you
It is possible to have an open straight book. Open it against the wall or some objects.
About the new hunt system, I was able to warn my teammates with a quick radio check, even from the van. No issues so far. I like the update 🙂
Thanks for you vids Insym.
With the head cams can the ghost use that to find you if someone is in the truck watching threw it? I know just wearing it is safe.
I tested a little on this but I think if you have any items like an EMF reader or flashlight on while it is on the ground where you are hiding the ghost can't seem to sense it. I could be wrong about it so correct me if I am wrong.
Wait can u test if emf level 5 ghosts during a hunt make the emf go to five and not level 5 ghosts Not to 5
I'm sick of dying through doors and not seeing it blink into existence when the hunt starts
You could do a lot of trickery with this new hunting system.
Imagine this system where you can't tell if the ghost hunts unless it is close to you with a ghost type that "clones" itself when hunting, the "clone" spawns somewhere else, doesn't glitch your stuff so you probably think it's a ghost event, but the twist is that the clone can not kill you, only damages your sanity severely when it touches you. (like 40-50 percent)
Wait so if you have push to talk you don’t have to worry about ghosts hearing you unless you’re talking right?
Also would big maps be easier since there is more space to run
Wilbur soot watches your videos, he said I’ve been watching my new favourite YouTube insym
I love the game changes, but I think its getting harder and harder for new players to comprehend the mechanics with all these changes and new items
this dude can be yelling at the ghost 5 feet away and then walk 5 feet and go hide and don't die but im on the other side of the map, mic off, no equipment and in a locker (while holding it) and it kills me
I haven't played this update yet. I do think what would be cool is not quite such a hard radius around the ghost for equipment cues. I would think a tiny, subtle anomaly further out and more gradually intense would be more suspenseful. And certain little things could happen from time to time during ghost events so you don't know if that tiny flicker of your light is a hunt or not. Some of those things already occur, but perhaps it could be drawn out and emphasized a bit more.
Of course, if things are happening all the time, then you have no contrast. If that is the case, it's no longer scary. It needs to be quiet and uneventful to make the events scary.
Also, equipment anomalies in the truck would be fun.
I cant wait to stop going lizard brain whenever there's a hunt and finally break some ghost ankles
If you’re one of those people who think the new hunt system makes the game unplayable… maybe you’re just not good and refuse to get better.
the new hunts are amazing so me and a friend were running into the garage and I got into the locker saely but I died without the ghost opening the locker door.
I wonder was this a timed delay and he caught me before the door closed or is there something now with the ghost physically seeing you go into the lockers?
21:04 DID YOU JUST STRAIGHT RUN THROUGH THE GHOST?!?!
They should make the dots projector many different colors during a hunt so you can have a ghost disco
Need help here:
Do video cams have battery now? My video cams always seem to stop working after a short while; I don’t know if it’s because there’s battery life, if hunts breaks them, or if it’s just glitched. But whether I’m holding the cam or it’s placed it still dies eventually quite often
Oh this is good. They doing quality updates cause those other new haunting games are just so nice. Need to kick up the work else they going to get left
I was so comfortable doing solo runs and stuff before. Now I am back to be terrified to even enter the house, which is a good thing! The hunts are Scary and the noises are even scarier! XD
I'm so glad you said that about the mic and fans because as Summer's come round I had my first death in about 100 hours of the game because the ghost heard my fan and hunted me down into a bathroom stall it never would have known i was in. Turned the fan off, 0 problems.
Large maps went from being extremely easy to extremely tense and challenging. Everything in this update was just wonderful. The long hallways on asylum and the cell blocks in prison are terrifying now.
Is it just me or is finding evidence much harder now? I struggle to find more than 1 piece of evidence now
Anyone know how to sprint in VR? My bf uses VR, I don't, and he was asking me, but idk.
You prolly already know but in the lobby theres a box packed up wirh the old equipment next to the next tier equipment
The new hunts are scary af I went against a ghost that was singing during hunts and events
This game never seemed very scary to me. Now it seems scary.
Also the sprinting you mention outrunning a rev, it feels like you can sprint for like 3 seconds before you're running out of stamina, which is frustrating, but I do like that you can go much faster etc, they said the walk is faster but I don't feel it any different, and still squat walk to go faster than walk walk lmao, don't mind me, I'm just here studying the playthru for my next run in a little while haha
The thing I absolutely love most about this update, is that it makes the game feel completely new and very terrifying again, as if it was the first time playing. Something I rarely see in games, is when the game starts to get boring – then getting an update making it feel brand new. They devs absolutely hit the nail on the coffin with this update, nothing but respect!
I have seen it and was terrified by it
You should cover what the tutorial covers for new players getting into phasmo
