Phasmophobia Update 0.5.1.2 Patch Notes

Changes

• Increased the chance for ghost events on small maps.
• Significantly reduced the distance that paranormal sounds are heard away from the ghost’s location with the Parabolic Microphone so that they are now near the ghost.
• Push to talk will now enable when playing solo if you have the option selected instead of forcing your microphone always on.
• The hunt will now end if you glitch outside of the level after the hunt has started.
• The Asylum toilet cubicles doors have been made straight to make it easier to find the ghost if it is in those rooms.
• Ghosts should no longer appear in non-ghost photos taken by other players.
• If there is no evidence in the photo and you already have a ghost photo, the priority will now go back to the ghost evidence for the photo.

Fixes

• Fixed a bug where paranormal sounds could not be heard on the Parabolic Microphone.
