When me and my friends played this challenge, we fucked around only to be hunted around 75% sanity, the ghost zoomed around the map like a madman killing one of my friends and continued to hunt for ages after. It was absolutely terrifying, thinking it was Thaye we left and it turned out to be a BLOODY MIMIC!!!

20:41 It makes quite a lot of sense. The way how cursor works is that it draws a line from the center of your screen forward and if this line intersects an interactable object, then the cursor changes to tell the user that they are now pointing at an object which they can interact with. The keyword here is the "line". The cursor is not actually shaped like the hand (like Insym here seems to think) and the size and shape settings in the menu only changes the size and the shape of the visual indicator. The actual cursor is still just an invisible forward pointing line in the middle of the screen. This is because it's much more efficient (read. faster) to calculate if a line intersects with an object compared to if a cylinder (or some more complex object) intersects with an object. Using a cylinder instead of a line would cause performance issues... and a hand would definitely be a PIA to calculate. The much more efficient alternative would be to increase the hitboxes of all intractable objects all across the board, so that the user don't have to point directly at the intractable objects to use them, but that might have looked very weird with the smaller visual indicator. Having too large interaction hitboxes would be much more confusing than the current ones which seems to be about the same size as the objects themselves.

Yeah agreed. Love him but occasionally he will have a very hard stance on something he clearly doesnt quite understand and its like dude please. lol that isnt how any of that works

@diospato 3 ай бұрын

i guess another take would be to instead of having a cylinder as you suggest, have 1 line in the middle and 8 or 16 extra lines in each cardinal direction (around the circumference of the cursor), where these extra lines' positioning would be based on the size of the cursor to match it. This would work because most of the items in the game are large enough that when a player tries to pick up an item, the hitbox of the item touches both the middle and the circumference around the cursor, so even if you miss the hitbox like Insym did, in this scenario the lines positioned around the circumference would catch the item. (also prioritize the line in the middle when multiple items are inside the radious, or take the item that has more lines intersected if there is not an item in the middle) Following this idea, i think the larger the cursor, the more lines it should have, because sometimes a larger cursors could have a "disadvantage" or bug where in some cases the circumference would be touching an item by a tiny margin but because its not in one of these lines it wouldn't be able to be picked up (max lines would depend on a balance between performance and usability ofc)

11:30 - Insym is totally right here about how the challenge can be negated by just playing safe and collecting evidence normally. I'm a new player but I was able to clear this challenge fairly easily by just staying in the light and taking sanity pills.

I can tell if the ghost is a myling if it steps through the salt and cannot hear any footstep sounds.

Wow. I wonder if that's intended and consistently works that's way or is it a bug. Mylings can be heard up close during hunts but it would be strange to zero footstep noise walking through salt and the player witnessing the salt getting stepped through up close

This may be a weird thing to ask but after watching many phasmo videos to improve I noticed that my weakest point is positioning, it'd be really nice if you could explain in one of these videos where should players position during the investigation depending on the ghost type/sanity etc. I can identify ghost without any evidences but I always die by being in the worst spot when the hunt begins 💀

I think I found a bug in Phasmophobia, I don’t know if it was possible before the update, but I found a way to duplicate items. You can only duplicate up to the item’s truck max capacity. If you own at least one item, and you add twice very fast, you’ll have one extra of that item. For example, if I have 0/4 headgears, but I have one in storage, and I add twice very fast, it’ll give me 2/4 headgears, instead of the 1/4 headgear I should have in the truck. Then I can repeat the process, having 1/4 headgears but having one in storage, add twice very fast, and I’ll have 3/4. And I can repeat the process one more time. Edit: I found this after they changed the shop/equipment manager/loadouts display.

a good way to figure out is to make a custom game and make the ghost as active as possible and turn on friendly ghost so it can’t hunt you! that’s what i did and it helped immensely. bring it an emf so you can see what specifically the ghost touched

The players who are good enough to bypass the hunting mechanics, arent good enough to speedrun the game with the knowledge that veteran players have. No need for 2 difficulties or to raise it because for those players who never try to get hunted, the games too immersive and slow paced to want to be hunted. Most players at that level aren't looping ghosts, they are evidence hunting.

@daedro 3 ай бұрын

actual cursor, not graphics, always have been single pixel on center of the screen. Or at least if you play with mouse&kb. And if you increase radius(for example, making same radius as interact icon) , it will create some annoying moments, if two items placed very close to each other, game will probably pick not the item you want, basically same thing with photo priority right now. At least, if that would be optional thing, maybe someone will prefer that function, but definitely not for me.
