Whispers on day 1

[DeGugs]

I just started my very first playthrough and heard Springtrap whisper "deception such as this" on night one. I know how the game works and that it's impossible for an animatronic to be there on day one so is this a bug or intentional?

update: I just got jumpscared by springtrap on day one, I thought they weren't supposed to come until you do a salvage!

you must have purchased something with a liability rate

It's not impossible to have an animatronic on Day 1. If you have any risk (you start with 3 Risk points), there is a chance an animatronic might sneak into the pizzeria. My first move is to always buy a sanitation station, as it provides 3 Health and Safety points, which negates the 3 Risk points you start with. Buying items with a Risk factor will increase your Risk points too.

[I've ran out of profile ideas h]

Son what liability you got boi

[DeGugs]

Yep, must've been that ball pit. I didn't think that 1 risk was enough to warrant Springtrap but oh well. Anyway I have more questions:

1. How long do you have to scan with the motion detector to find something? I scanned for a good 5 seconds on that playthrough and it didn't tell me that Springtrap was there.

2. If you find out that an animatronic is in the vent next to you, how long do you have to hold the flashlight to deter him/her?

3. Does silent ventilation do ANYTHING? Because apparently it doesn't cool the room like I thought it would.

4. If you get an animatronic early like I did, do you still do their salvage or do you get the "I'm already in the pizzaria" sign? (I know that happens with lefty but does that happen with the others?)

1/2. Personally I never use the motion detector. I have a strategy that works, but doesn't work 100% of the time. It's a lot easier than trying to monitor four different animatronics at once. Basically I put the audio on the far-middle-left side of the pizzeria and shine my flashlight down the right vent while a task is being done. I turn off ventilation when I hear something in the vents and/or when it hits 60 degrees, and turn it on at around 90 degrees. Like I said, it doesn't work all the time because Scott made it so that audio and flashlights don't work 100% of the time, so you can end up with some unlucky generation in an animatronic's AI and/or the ads appearing. It's treated me well though so I'll keep using it. With just one animatronic though, you should be fine. A video to my run using this strategy on Day 6 (with all four animatronics and two sets of ads) is linked so you can get a visual understanding of this strategy. https://youtu.be/No7osGxCvg0?t=5059

3. It doesn't really do anything so just leave it alone.

4. No, you get the sign. Basically if an animatronic enters the pizzeria you've lost your chance to complete the salvage. So you're not going to be able to do Scraptrap's salvage in this case.

To be fair, I played around with it a little and found out that although the silent ventilation doesn't decrease the temperature on it's own, it does reduce the temperature increase a little. It may not be much, but at least it has a purpose.

With it active, you could probably go another 30 seconds without the main fan.

On my first salvage no one was there. it said "No ones here. (I'm already inside.)" I pretty sure its just rare cases...though it might be a glitch.

well, as you can tell by the other replies, I have been informed that it is in fact possible to get the animatronics (other than lefty) early by purchasing products with a liability risk. If this happens, you will indeed get a sign for that animatronic. The game makes sure to remind you that it "runs the risk of something hiding inside." Back in my playthrough, I bought the ball pit (liability 1) and just got unlucky.

Ah okay, that's nice to know. Personally I still wouldn't use it.

This is not a glitch. It just means that someone has already entered your pizzeria due to any presence of Risk points. First salvage is always Molten Freddy, so expect to see Molten Freddy in your pizzeria.

I bought nothing with risk points. \(.-.\)

I believe the restaurant has a default risk of 1 or 2 points. Just buy some cups or the sanitation station to clear that up. Unless of course you’re going for the “mediocrity” ending. In that case just try again, you got unlucky that time.

Actually you can get the mediocrity ending with the sanitation station. The only way to get the mediocrity ending is to have no animatronics in the pizzeria and to have a Faz-Rating of 0. The sanitation station doesn't increase your Faz-Rating, so you're all good; it automatically removes all risk due to the sanitation station having a Health and Safety of 3, which cancels the starting risk of 3.
