Below you’ll find today’s patch notes. As you continue your investigations in Phasmophobia, if you encounter bugs, issues or simply have feedback for our team, please use the dedicated channels in the official Phasmophobia Discord.

Changes
PS5: Lowered the density of fog on PSVR2 to increase visibility

You can no longer rebind the left mouse click or Xbox A/ PlayStation X button to any keybind, this is to prevent the UI becoming unusable

Fixes
All Platforms:

Fixed an issue where Totem Points would multiply per player in each game.

Fixed an issue that caused too many Totems to spawn in multiplayer.

Fixed several instances of players getting stuck in various locations.

Fixed an issue that caused Doors in VR to no longer shake & play a loud noise when grabbed.

Fixed an issue preventing VR players from turning at the same time as moving, when Smooth Turning was switched on.

Fixed an issue where VR Players would bounce off of objects when walking in to them.

Fixed an issue causing some controller inputs to become unuseable when a VR player opens the journal.

Xbox:

Fixed an issue preventing playeres from not being able to obtain the “They’re Here“ achievement.

PS5/PSVR2:

Fixed an issue with PS VR2 Foveated Rendering that was causing a ghosting effect on the main menu

Fixed an issue on PS5 that caused Tripod T1 to follow the player when dropped.


Thanks,

The Kinetic Games Team

Worse still; it's just adjusted in game so now we all have t1 done, 18% into t2... did they think not mentioning it in the patch notes that we'd just forget? Oh dear.. I hope not.

[Werebuns]

Did you fix the mic on PC not working sometimes when going into a game? Any plan to? My friends and I don't want to play until this is fixed as it has affected all us.

[Vencered]

I agree with the mic. It wont work on PC it is glitched. NOTHING GOES THROUGH. NOW WE CANT USE SOME BUTTONS....... So Disappointed...... Please Fix these.

Incorrect? There was a big jump when they adjusted it like yesterday or two days ago. Play more often please.

I still have issues, Blood moon event/weather not even appearing on maps and my partner who is beside me has the weather, Also all maps with trees are lighting up like fireworks, Love the game just want to enjoy the event with it working or an understanding how to fix it.

And DIDN'T mention it patch notes, please read better.
They put everyone off playing when they messed the event up this badly, and I had other events in other games that weren't made impossible while also diminishing personal effort put in.
Your reply is very weird and ick.

I wish I knew -.-
They redirected to their site for the BIG patch.. instead of copy pasting it? It's where I got this info from, maybe they need to direct traffic to their site for some weird business reasons idk, but it's incredibly inconvenient.

Give me a decent mic server, it's been more than an hour and the mic still doesn't work.

[VenomousGoat]

me and my wife play together and now only one of us get the weather depending on who is hosting. this also affects the temperatures between us by about ten degrees. Also affects the blood moon bonus.

[CodaEsq323]

The patch made controllers not work.

Honestly this part just sucks. I was playing with left mouse click for placing objects as it's a lot smoother for me. Never had an issue with the UI becoming unusable.

this isn't new, the progress for the event was supposedly* increased before this patch even released, last night i was playing and the progress was at 90%, the day before it was at ~60

so basically the last part of your post is just you saying you haven't played since they increased the experience for the community progress.

also, it's only "rumored" to have increased, i have a suspicion that it wasn't actually increased at all and that the progress counter is just not a live feed to the progress and only updates every so often, because after my first few games when the event started it went from like 15% to 24% in a matter of hours.

so just saying, it was rumored that it was increased, but there was no real update that i saw that did any such thing and the progress doesn't update constantly ime.

this could explain why there was no "patch note" talking about an increase to the progress because there wasn't actually an increase at all, i only saw people mention an increase here on discussions and they stated it was up to 56% then for them, which means this was after the first day when i played and saw the actual progress being updated every hour or so.

in short: it seems like they didn't increase it at all, people just saw that it wasn't updating and assumed the progress wasn't counting, but it was; it just wasn't updating as often as they looked.

It was at like 1.7% after a full day, that doesn't sound like it was updating rarely, I also saw it increase by like .1% once, p sure they tweaked vastly inaccurate estimates.
