playable ghost mode
i think there should be playable ghosts but not making it the main mode i want it to be a alternate mode you pick to play because i like the standard gameplay but it gets to repetitive and a player ghost can help this it can ad a bit of competitiveness to it i think how it should work is that the player who is the ghost gets a random ghost and can chose there ghost room then the ghost has a some factor before it can hunt and get angry and i want this to be an anger meter and stuff like being in the building will very slowly fill the meter and saying the name will fill it a small amount and other factors but i think there should be 4 markers on what you can do at mark 1 you can interact with phones and radios etc. at 2 you can do that thing where you make that sound in the hunter ears and close doors at mark 3 you can start showing your self in that shadow form but not in normal form and cant hunt them at mark 4 you can hunt and i am not sure how to balance the hunt and i also don't know what to do to make it harder for the hunters this is where you guys can give your input i will read and reply to them lets hope the devs hear the fact we want to play as the ghost

I really should put "There won't be a PVP mode in the game" on a sticky pad or something.

Go play DBD if you want a horror PVP mode. Because that's exactly what this game's going to become if they implement one.

Maybe the Dev can pin a Discussion that explicitly states that there won't be a PVP mode or something, although I'm sure some people will disregard it anyway.

To be honest, you're not building the game so you saying, you want it a certain way is not up to you. The game is fine the way it is. There is no need for a hunting mode. There are plenty of games out there where you can be a killer/hunter like Dead by Daylight and Friday the 13th. If you want a hunting/pvp game, you reallly should play one of those. Just my opinion!

im not saying this is the certain way i want it it is just an idea and i understand it is fine the way it is its just an idea for people who want it

reply to the bored chair man i want this mode to be optional not the main game and for those who want it and i want the main focus to be scaring the other players not overall killing them and it is just an idea

jim24456 Dec 28, 2020 @ 8:54pm

I apologize for the people who have harassed your idea, it is commonly quoted here, I think most, as well as I would love a way to control ghosts and most of these guys who publicly reject this mod would also want to play after implemented, I'm sure.
Most of these guys who reject a ghost control mod are usually the ones who haven't even reached level 200 yet and don't know how tedious the game becomes after that.
I find the idea of ​​playing with ghosts fascinating, and as you said, it would be a game mode regardless of the main game mode, it would make these people who apparently reject this mod, not make them cry.

I think the mod playing with ghosts should have a different view of ghosts, just like human players they couldn't see it constantly. The ghost should look around the house for "materialization points", these accumulated points could cause it to materialize for some time both to scare players and to attack them. Because we know that a ghost when it does not materialize is harmless only being able to touch some objects.

Actually if you check other threads quite a lot of people DON'T want PVP (those that do tend to be the very vocal minority), and a lot of people just keep it short in terms of shooting the ideas down because they're tired of repeating the reasons why it wont work so many times. Though, dev already confirmed there won't be PVP so just kind of makes these hypotheticals kind of pointless. If you are looking for something similar to this that does have PVP though Damned is probably as close as you're going to get (it's actually scary unlike DBD). Only issue is it's got a pretty small player base (almost nonexistant) and can be kinda jank at times so might be beast to get some friends in on the action.

Can you prove these claims? I think not. What I read is that the developer has no PLANS to implement a "pvp mode" as you are calling it, but he never said he would not do a pvp mode. I follow him on Twitter

"pretty small player base (almost nonexistant)" lol

I believe that you must have already researched how many players want to play with ghosts in this game. That's hilarious! lol It presents "facts" without any evidence.

I'm pretty active on the boards here, just speaking based on the trend I've seen in the past with these threads. Also not sure why you pulled out my blurb about Damned to preface that?

If being active on this forum gives you some authority to say something about how many people want or don't want a mod that can play with ghosts, I also have this right because I am very active on this forum lol.
I want you to show me the numbers / percentages of what you said, if you don't have it it's just ♥♥♥♥ speculation you use to discourage people from asking for this mod.
It is a dishonest maneuver widely used on the internet.

"Right now I have no plans to add another game mode, as it would turn the game into something completely different, and push the game away from what I want it to be. I want the game to remain 4 players vs. 1 AI, and balance the game, then add new features around that style of gameplay ."

So even though he did say he has "no plans" to make a pvp mode he has already decided he will not make one because it will take the game in a different direction than what he wants.

His game his choice.

I just wish people would accept it and stop begging for it like the game is going to die if it doesn't have it.

It will be just fine without it.

PvP might be a good idea, but dev's resources and interest in developing the said game are pretty limited. Also, afaik, dev said that any kind of PvP is not happening, and he prefers to stay focused on improving replayability of the PvE aspect.

Relax, the guy is not begging. He is merely suggesting. I see no reason to attack him.
