Is It POSSIBLE to Beat Five Nights at Freddy's 3 WITHOUT the Maintenance Panel? (No Fixing Errors)

Welcome to my purgatory, today I want to see if it's possible for Five Nights at Freddy's 3 be beaten without fixing any errors? Five Nights at Freddy's 3 is a popular survival horror game where you play as a night guard tasked with surviving against the relentless animatronics in a haunted pizzeria.
In this video, I'm going to take on the challenge of beating the game without fixing any errors. Normally, fixing errors/using the maintenance panel is a crucial part of gameplay as it helps to prevent the animatronics from reaching you, helps you to see the animatronics and also generally helps you not lose. However, I'll be attempting to survive every night without using this essential tool.
Join me as I face the daunting task of outsmarting the animatronics, utilizing my skills, and strategic gameplay to stay alive without fixing any errors. It's going to be an intense experience as I navigate through the dark and eerie pizzeria, relying solely on my wits and ingenuity.
Can it be done? Let's find out together in this thrilling gameplay video. I'll be sharing my tips, reactions, and gameplay experience with you as I attempt to beat the game using alternative strategies. Don't forget to like and subscribe for more gaming content, and let me know in the comments if you think it's possible to beat Five Nights at Freddy's 3 without fixing any errors. Get ready for a heart-pounding challenge!

[@emeraldything]

(11:04) The reason Springtrap walks to the audio lures is because the Spring Bonnie animatronic is programmed to move towards the sounds of children, so they wouldn't wander away from the crowd. Because William died to a springlock failure, the suit is in animatronic mode, and is forced to walk to sounds of children against William's will. William is smart enough to know there isn't actually anyone there except for the employee.

[@RyanzinBR]

Cool fact

[@Negonkey]

I think you didn't get the joke..

[@Querez8504]

​@@Negonkey It's entirely possible that Chicken genuinely didn't know why Springtrap went towards sounds of children/BB, but still made a joke about it.

[@mynameisaegis]

I actually thought it was for more of a morbid reason. I thought it was because William hears the sound of children and instinctively goes towards it to murder said children just for them to not be there. Your explanation makes much more sense lol

[@ManicObsevations]

​@@mynameisaegis this is the only explanation I ever hear

[@PeachSSGSS]

This is literally the first time I’m hearing about the hallucinations that aren’t the Phantoms. It genuinely caught me by surprise

[@radn_]

same! and i didn't know you can get so many at the same time. i think i remember when i played long ago i also had two springtraps appear in different rooms and thought the game glitched. i got a bunch of phantom jumpscares before that so it just seemed like the game started breaking.

IK, props to scott for adding this detail that 90% of us will probably never see or notice

[@TheBi4ds]

I love challenge runs from a lore perspective. Because the idea of a security guard who maybe isn't taking things seriously, burning through all their resources in the first hour, thinking they can chill out the rest of the night. Only to then realize the danger of the animatronics, and scrape by on sheer paranoia is so good.

[@0-Mustang]

The phantoms aren’t actually there tho, they are just a figure of Michael’s imagination

[@foxboiunknown320]

​@@0-Mustanghence the paranoia, you realise the danger of something that isnt there, if you ever realise the danger of springtrap your dead

[@the_flipside_world]

Imagine if this was the canon way they do it

[@philipp04]

Just realized that you don't get vent errors passively in night 6 just due to an oversight. The counter thing works exactly as you described, except it isn't tied to the night number, but rather the AI: Scott set that counter to decrease by 1 every 12 seconds iff AI == 2, every 10 seconds if AI == 3, every 9 seconds if AI == 4, every 8 seconds if AI == 5 and every 6 seconds if AI == 6 (there's only one AI value in this game Springtrap's AI value affects all phantoms too). Trouble is, AI never equals 6, AI = 7 on night 6, so none of these conditions apply and the counter never decreases. Either he set AI to be the night number earlier in the game and then changed it but didn't notice that it affected the passive vent errors, or he forgot that AI is 7 and not 6 on night 6. You can still get a vent error from a phantom animatronic jumpscare or from not looking at the cameras nor the maintenance panel for too long though. I can also tell you that if you ever see Springtrap in the vent, then you're looking at the real Springtrap. Springtrap hallucinations only occur on the top layer cameras (1 - 10), and never in the vent cameras or if you aren't looking at the cameras at all

[@thorgidogofthunder]

one more important sound to mention: the "danger whistle." it plays when springtrap is in cams 05-04-03-02-01 and in the hallway to your office. the louder it gets, the closer he is. 25:10 could have been prevented if you'd known to listen for it. the whistling didn't stop, so he had to be in 04. edit: just remembered it also plays when phantom chica is in the office lol. i don't blame you if you just tuned it out. it does get louder when springtrap is nearby, so it's still worth your attention in a challenge like this.

[@Gloom_Shroom_Gaming]

It plays for phantom Chica too? It also plays when phantom Freddy is walking outside.

[@No0b_1337]

I'm amazed that so many people are unaware of the danger ambiance in FNAF3, its a breathy whistle that plays when Springtrap is in cameras: 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, or anywhere in between, and it gets louder the closer he is, unluckily this sound also plays when Phantom Freddy is walking by

[@namesmitt]

Right? It’s such a good indicator because you can figure out his exact location going by that noise alone.

[@RetiredAccount444]

its very easy to notice

[@roxanne8662]

I know right? It's like the hallway danger ambience in 2.

[@benja-tp1sp]

Not really, in FNAF 2 the hallway ambience only tells you that either someone is on the hallway or about to be inside/in a vent, and starting with Night 5 you will pretty much hear that sound from 12 PM to 6 AM. (408 seconds of hallway ambience!)

[@firered33]

Huge props to Scott's sound design in these games. Not only do they add to the atmosphere, it also subtly clues you on what is going on.

[@fireheart223sbackupchannel7]

The reason Springtrap moves towards the audio lure is explianed in this quote form the Night 2 training tape: " For ease of operation the animatronics are set to turn and walk towards sound, giving an easy and hands free approach, to making sure the animatronics stay where the children are, for maximum entertainment/crowd pleasing value."

I mean no sound is pure rng... kinda, from what I Know is that if you close the door and their in the hallway they will be right next to the door, you might be able to leave and go back to the door and that would make them go away. You could also do no closing doors but I don't know if you can even beat the first night with that requirement

Alright. Here’s an idea for the 4th game, do it without checking the closet. The thing is, Foxy has to succeed sneaking through the hallways before he enters the closet in the first place. Thus, you pretty much just have to micro-manage the funny spaghetti tongue man to keep him out of the room. And once you see the closet door moving, thus signally that he got in, you’d better start counting down your remaining time until he decides to attack. Hope it’s at least fun, and also, please take some breaks so you don’t go insane. That should be all. Excited to see what challenge comes next. Maybe you could try SL with the sound off, or FFPS without the motion detector/audio lure/silent ventilation? They’re just ideas though, so if they seem too hard or uninteresting, don’t feel pressured to do them. Still, have fun.

This could work, but all nights past 4 become RNG thanks to Fredbear and Nightmare having the chance to laugh and go into the closet, so he’d have to hope those two just never go to the closet the entire night.

The mini Fredbears I think? (And of course to see if Foxy is in the closet or if the animatronics are far away from the door) No audio? From what I remember, flashing the lights when an animatronic is right at the door is a death sentence and the only way to know if they're there is to listen for their breathing. Or a set amount of moves every night (where going to the door and back counts as 1) So if anything, maybe no sound - some people have already done that though, and I have no idea how possible or (im-)possible this actually is.

the hallucination mechanic is actually so cool, never knew it existed. Though I do wish that maybe there was some way to tell it wasn't a real springtrap, like I guess it flickering or disappearing randomly?

it's so rare it genuinely doesn't matter lol

@@no-mb6fu that's really not the point, if FNAF 3 had more going on, it'd serve as a pretty good confusion to the player. Which I think would be pretty neat, especially since it's a slap on the wrist for ignoring ventilation errors

[@no-mb6fu]

@@justpassingby298 if fnaf 3 had too much going on, it wouldn't be fun. The mechanic is supposed to be easily dealt with (because it's literally an unavoidable situation) if you pay attention. It can be more than enough if you slip up and lose him.

Considering night 6 doesn't have any timed ventilation errors, would it not be feasibly possible to dance around getting any jumpscares and just hold a staring contest with Springtrap on the left side of the office for the entire night?

[@namesmitt]

There’s a separate mechanic present with the ventilation where it’ll start rapidly draining if you sit in the office for over 10 consecutive seconds. It’s a guard against winning the game by office camping

[@lucaschellekens4660]

the reason why is "attracted to children" is explained by the phone guy. Essentially the animatronics components of the springbonnie suit (where the purple guy is trapped) where built to detect specific sounds (like the sound of children) and programed to move to that location. So the options are two: 1) simply the purple guy tries to search for the soul of the childrens for revenge or 2) parts of the suit are still fuctioning and the purple guy has no control over his body when you activate the lure. Anyway great video, it was very entertaining

When Springtrap enters your office he acts so humanly. Like how he stares at you and doesn't attack immediately but immediately runs towards you when you look away... The way he just looks at you when he's at the door. It seems like how a serial killer will act like.
