Mic is open all the time, if you talk during a hunt even if you are not push to talk you will alert the ghost

it's a bug but yes, it can hear you as long as your mic is on, regardless of push to talk. that shouldn't make it target you, tho. the only thing in the code is line of sight.

But any sounds help the ghost find you easier

They can track places you have been by following you around and listening to sounds you make while in the non hunt phase.

We tested this out by having one of our friends just make random noises in a corner of the map while the rest of us gathered the evidence. We then had him be quiet and move to the other end of the map.

When it came time to hunt it decided to lock onto our friend who was making all the noise.

It ran straight out of the room and headed right to where he was sitting during the whole time making all that noise then proceeded to search for him from that point.

Sounds during a hunt don't seem to matter though. Seeing as I remember seeing a video of a group of people screaming during a hunt just to find out if the sound made it come to them and it never came for any of the ones making the sound.

Yeah, I've literally talked, sometimes even shouted while hiding and never die.

yeah, that tracks with my experience and what others have said as well. it knows where you are via sound and such OUTSIDE OF A HUNT, but not WHILE HUNTING.

Ghost don't hear you during hunts. Me and a friend blast soundboard memes in the bathroom with the ghost outside the doorway and it doesn't care

ok

Just mute your mic. I do it during hunts.

Hello, Level 600+ Player here. Ghosts CANNOT hear you during a hunt. You can safely ignore anyone that says otherwise. They cannot hear ANYTHING during a hunt. However when it is not hunting, they are all ears even without the push to talk button pressed. I just want to eliminate misinformation right off the bat. People will tell you they can hear during a hunt because "oh my friend made a sound and it randomly wandered to him by coincidence so it must be able to hear", but fact is they can't.

The only thing that matters when a ghost is hunting is LINE OF SIGHT. If you're not in its vision, then it won't care about you and will just be wandering purely at random. And yes they can see behind them. As soon as you're out in the open and it's possible for the ghost to see your head, the grudge gurgling noise starts playing which is direct sound notification that tells you that you're in its line of sight and it is currently approaching you.

Agree, and thinks it would be better if they could hear you. The game would be much more interesting. It is a good game anyway though.
