From another poster:



At a certain part where you look through a whole you hear some rant and slicing as well. I'm pretty confused with it..

It also seems that the father in this house you are in was laid off 10 months ago. The husband becomes an alcoholic. The wife gets a job as a cashier because the manger likes how she looks in the skirt. (possibly pregnant from her boss now). This is possibly when he kills the family

Thanks. So is the father the player controlled character and the ghost is the mother?

okay, so...on my game, i had alternating hallway colors in the final loop (usually red or green i wanna say?), played today on my girl's game and had none.

went to exit from her game to mine, and maybe it didnt log me out? so i restarted my game and bam, no colors in my hallway anymore either. i wonder if its random or carried over somehow?
 
Xaoswolf is brute forcing it. He stays at the phone to let the ghost past then runs around quickly to check everything.

I think its best to let the ghost roam, I think when you are possessed it my lock the puzzle down. Maybe as long as the ghost roams the puzzle alternates making it easier to stumble on it.

Really? Its weird how some of the stuff even before the final puzzle dont need to be done with consistency

Tempest, Xaos can't keep skipping the phone after the giggles. The only way to find out is to be consistent. So if baby giggles, go to phone. But, he has to be sure he doesn't mess up the rumble getting to phone. So, giggle, go to phone, wait for rumble and then wait for phone call. The minute it doesn't work, you know it's not the only way. But if it works many times after giggles then it's at least consistent.

Okay, I'll post in chat.

the final part of the hallway puts you in a random hallway, sometimes werid colors, sometimes not.

I'm confused, when people say they were "possessed" is that when the ghost just rushes you any old time, or only when she grabs you, you get the "in your face" shot and end up back in the first room?

Standing motionless/inert (like one of the italian hints says) near the telephone (deutsch hint) the pad starts vibrating. Maybe the vibration is her finger that touches my hand (other italian hint). What were the other hints? Maybe they are linked too.

Currently waiting by the phone motionless with red flashlight. Call me maybe?
Please respond

DON'T DO THIS WITH THE RED FLASHLIGHT

I stared at the phone with the red flashlight for a while, then turned around and the ghost FLEW RIGHT AT ME.

I shit seven bricks.

This is disturbing

Looks like Daz is walking 10 steps to get a baby giggle

EDIT: After the bell and all the noise quiets down (he's standing still while this is going on) he walks 10 steps and the baby giggles!

EDIT2: Hmm.. worked the first time. He couldn't replicate it a second time, but there's something about the 10 steps.

When she rushes theough you. Afterwards you only hear her while standing still, and she won't show up again.
 
what the fook is this??!

I feel so helpless not being able to do anything but walk and zoom in....

Nope...after I got that scary lady inside me...I'm done with this...

Well if he couldn't replicated its just another one of the milllion random events. It probably means nothing.

WHat is he doing. Is he getting possessed or not? Is he running quickly through the room? Is he taking time starring at things? Is he looping after some time?

What is the method he is using?

Nope, nothing to do with the ghost. He intentionally stays away from it by standing still while the music and ghost sounds are going on. Then he runs around and looks at stuff when it's quiet. After a while he gets it, but doesn't know how.

EDIT: And he got it again!

To me it certainly seems like the game is built to gain advantage of streaming, with hints in many different languages, so it benefits from cooperation.
 
Just been watching a guy play it on the Live PS4 channel and he was on his 10th run through the game! He seemed to know exactly he was doing, up until the point of triggering the ending!

He just finished it again. I noticed he was singing constantly when the last 2 giggles happened. Does the game monitor noise levels through your headset or PS camera?

So I seem to be stuck in and endless hall that is glowing red with eyeball pictures. And I am running crazy fast. Keep running?

Erm, how can you get possessed? I played and I'm not sure I understand that part, some folks are saying that if you want the phone to ring you need to not be possessed.

Look for a painting on the floor. Above it you will find a hole in the wall. Look through it with R3 and keep watching until the game gets you out. Then keep walking.

Seems like we are all watching daz.

The last 2 times I seen him beat this, he got the first laugh with the 10 step thing. Seems like that's the first step at least.

OK, didn't realize that indicated possession (since she'd still show up elsewhere later). So do people really think you have to never be possessed to get the ending? I thought gamergirltalk got possessed/rushed at one point in her stream?

Lmfao I love the theories on how to solve this game. By now I'm willing to believe this is a legitimate solution hahah
 
So lets think of this like a puzzle. The developers made the answer so complicated they figured it would take a week to solve. And yet the method to solve it is easy enough to stumble into it by accident. This means that whatever the sequence is, the way to solve it is simply walking around, looking at stuff, and being at the right place at the right time. The question is what is that sequence, what governs it?

Seeing that people who have beaten it multiple times have not been able to replicate it with the same steps means what occurred before the infinite loop means nothing. Since you load at the infinite loop and it cant be solved the same way twice, there is no reason to assume what you did before that influences the final loop.

Whatever the solution is, it is solvable from that point forward. I believe Kojima and company wanted this to last days where the whole community would come together to solve it by looking at the clues. I think because many have accidentally beat it the community as a whole is ignoring all the clues on the screen. Maybe if we translate everything, listen to audio in reverse and solve the riddle we may know what the sequence is.

Clearly it is semi random. It probably has to do with time because people have stood still in one spot and stumbled on it meaning at some point the solution so happened to be at that point at that time.

Im stuck.

Im stuck in the part with you moving very fast and all the pictures on the walls are spinning eyeballs

There's a painting that's fallen down near the bathroom, on the wall there, there's a tiny hole that you can get close to and focus on.
 
Welp, apparently you can miss the phone call, I have my PS4 one while I checked the thread, was standing in front of the mirror, when I heard a baby giggle, I switched back to the PS4 and my DS was vibrating, but it stopped when I got to the phone. Didn't notice a phone ringing though.

Kojima likes to take advantage of system features, right? Like reading the time, memory card or controller port as well as "possessing" controllers. The phone call also says you have been chosen. Perhaps there is something that is a mix of certain actions in the game but its limited to certain people only. Maybe based off their name or something else. Maybe we should also be looking into information based around the people who have completed it at least once.

Lol. I'd be willing to bet on that except a GAF member has said they beat it without any Metal Gear or Silent Hill data on their system. I was guessing maybe it was based off usernames or something.

Also, any news on what 204863 is? I saw the birthday theory but why is the 0 in that particular place?
 
Finally did it! Basically what I did was get possessed first thing, then I waited for the baby to laugh. Went straight for the phone and paused. After that I heard the laugh a second time. I un-paused then heard a third laugh. Phone rang and demo is finished. I'll post a video later.

This is fucking bullshit.

This is fucking bullshit.


Been playing this shit for 8 hrs now and only because Kojima wants to randomize the final event. Fuck this, fuck that baby in the sink, fuck Silent hill, fuck cypress hill, Benny hill, and anything with hills. I need a shower
