Help please: Ghost Orb bug
Been playing with friends and for the first few games the orbs showed up, but we havent been able to see orbs at all for like 2 days now while playing many hours- even if its one of the evidences and we had the cam in the ghost room.

Make sure you’ve looked at every angle of the room. Also, some rooms have two or three additional rooms on it. Like the street house master bedroom that includes closet and the bathroom.

The ghost orb is sometimes not easy to spot, even if you found the ghost room. If the ghost room is a hallway, make sure to check some of the rooms nearby. If you know where the ghost usually starts it hunt from, you most likely find it there.

Shut off the lights of the room if you check for orbs and activate night vision. Only this way you are able to spot it.

Everytime my group is entering the house, we will change the position of the cameras to view the room we think it is from another angle. Often the orb was floating quite "over" the camera we set up, or we viewed just the wrong room lika Snoopa said.

It is an evidence that should to be check multiple times to make sure, same with EMF5. A EMF5 ghost will not always produce a level 5 signal directly if he is nearby.

Just this morning we had a Jinn in Asylum. We got Spirit box, EMF5, but no matter how many video cams we placed we didn't see orbs anywhere, but he never wrote in the book (possible Oni) so we decided to choose in a journal "Jinn"

Did you really check the right room? Especially the smaller rooms or storage rooms are hard to miss. We had two storage rooms right next to each other and checked the asumed room a couple of times (box reacted in the wrong room, since it was near enough to do so), and also EMF5 can happen outside of the ghost room if he wanders.

We watched closely where he exactly begins his hunt and noticed he came out of the storage room right next to the one we checked all the time, so we were able to collect all evicences finally :)

Lowest lvl on the team was 500+, so we knew better than to check only one room. We had 6 cams there, we checked head mounted cameras, we checked cams inside Asylum, I assume that orbs were bugged, coz it was a Jinn

This sounds like it possibly really was bugged. Didn't happened to me still, but you might report this issue in the bug report if you are totally sure about it.

Thanks for all the replies but I'm certain it is a bug as we also had 5 cameras and 3 headcams every time and would keep checking over and over again from different angles. Havent seen a single ghost orb for 3 days straight now no matter how many different rooms and angles we've checked unfortunately. We played an open lobby with an experienced player as well, level 120 and he also couldnt see ghost orbs anywhere when it was evidence...

I didnt realise there was a separate area to post for bug issues, I posted it there now, thanks :)
