[sharp fox]

gotta say i may have PTSD from RoN

[west wharf]

Does this game not have exit wounds?

[harsh moon]

Guys, do you think USIA is the leader of the spider organization?

[misty island]

No, just another puppet.

[harsh moon]

İts impossible bc USAİ is big goverment factions.OK if USİA is puppet.Who is Head of The Spider?

@misty island

[misty island]

Big shady organisation. I think, that not whole USIA is corrupted, just big part of "corruption" are puppets if The Spider.

[harsh moon]

So where did you find this evidence?

[misty island]

No evidence, just asuption. Like Beisa cove is hinted to be an inside job at some part. FISA is corrupted, it is well known.
I just think, that powerful organisation like The Spider has its "legs" everywhere.
Like in mission Port FISS Commander tried to cover up something tied to that container. But we will.never know the thurth as we are only a part of a big machine.

[harsh moon]

You are right about FISA but I still don't understand where the Big Shady organization was mentioned.

[misty island]

Sorry, I confused myself. I mean, that The Spider is a big shady organisation, that is behind everything. It has its "legs" everywhere. In FUSA, USIA, police, head of government and etc.

[vagrant scaffold]

how do i like get new swat team members

i unlocked one but where do i assign him

[opaque birch]

hold tab

[vagrant scaffold]

where

it doesn't work

[opaque birch]

press tab in the police station

[vagrant scaffold]

it doesn't work

[opaque birch]

check your keybinds

[harsh moon]

There is some truth in what you say, but these actions are always experimental things for USIA. If USIA were a puppet, why should USIA be the head of the mission?

[misty island]

You should bring up your tablet(default hold TAB) and there is a tab with tour piloce officers. There you will figure it up, I hope. If anything, ping me.

[harsh moon]

Also, the legs in the spider symbol are 8, respectively: Meth Heads-Puppet
Los Locos-Cartel
Mind Jot&Bolton-Private Security
Amos Vol-Boss
George Brixy-Boss
Traffickers-Cartel
The Left Behind-exVeterans
The Hand-Yemen Terrorist Group

[trim sundial]

will devs ever expand customization options

[harsh moon]

its count 8 member + head of spider is USİA = 9

[misty island]

No one knows.

[misty island]

I mean, it is kinda stupid for a government agency to make a huge experiment on its citizen. The lore of the game, that everything and everyone is corrupt, I think, that everything is ruled by money. Some shady, big organisations (The Spider) with wealthy and powerful people just want more money and power, so they influence other and make them puppetire.

I hope I explained that pretty well.

[rigid prawn]

Does anybody know if they'll add a dlc or more maps to Base game?

[misty island]

Meh, this is bad, imo. I do not like your connections.

[limber steppe]

there are 2 confirmed DLCs one is coming this spring, and the other is coming in summer

[misty island]

DLCs are expected this spring and summer.

[misty island]

There are a lot things I disagree.

[harsh moon]

The people are corrupt and there are people who will sacrifice their lives for money and what you say is true, but the biggest part of the government getting into this business is that they can keep the police and citizens in their hands with MK Ultra Mind Control, so there is no need to fix the city, and even a large amount of money can be made from this experiment.

[harsh moon]

Why would they use a spider symbol for a group of 9 members?

[harsh moon]

After all, there are 8 legs and a brain, just like you said.

[harsh moon]

Of course, since these are theories, there is no certainty.

[misty island]

Other people, I do not think that 9 people you mentioned are part of the main group. Just a portrait from Voll's mission shows, that Voll is not a boss.

[misty island]

Yes, but the legs and brain I disagree.

[misty island]

Wtf is MK Ultra?

[opaque birch]

this isnt even lore anymore

🥷 s be makin up conspiracies in ready or not 💀

[harsh moon]

mind control

[opaque birch]

i genuinely need an explanation how the fuck does MK ULTRA fit into the fucking ready or not lore

[harsh moon]

I saw it in the video I sent you.

[umbral oar]

this game is beautiful man

[harsh moon]

I don't know, maybe it's a translation error.

[misty island]

Nah, mate, this some crazy theories

[misty island]

Yes

[misty island]

Wait, what. What video

[opaque birch]

ah yes makes sense true

[misty island]

Yes!!! This shit I will always agree on.

[harsh moon]

The brain control explanation is inside Gerard Scott's(lethal obsession) house.

[harsh moon]

look dm

[misty island]

Nah, I mean, I agree that there should be a concrete proof.

[misty island]

Nah, he is insane. There is no proof, just some crazy man theories.

[misty island]

Oh, OK. I am not home rn, I will look later.

[opaque birch]

if you agree with gerard scott you might be actually insane

[harsh moon]

There is proof in the game

Already showing the proof

[dusky mason]

Yes

[deep kettle]

I just read Void's recent reports that they are finally adding lip sync on characters. I am not sure why they are so late adding this.

SWAT 4 already had lip sync on their animation. I miss good ol days.

We Are Busy Making The Game Run As Bad As Possible

• Jon REady Or NOT

[full cypress]

Hey everyone, I'm currently considering starting to play RON -- how is the community, how high's the barrier of entry? I currently only have one regular PC gaming buddy who recently became a dad. Of course, this squashes his PC time, and forces me to go in solo if it's worth it. What do you say? Is it worth it? Is this discord a good way to find parties? (I'm at EU; so GER/ENG)

[opaque birch]

the community is fine just dont say the game is good and everything will be ok

[full cypress]

Interesting meta. 😉 Any more insights?

[opaque birch]

use the sa58

you will get why when you start playing

[muted star]

Game is cool, has some flaws tho. Big amount of mods if you get bored

[full cypress]

That's great to hear, rarity these days

[full cypress]

Interesting gun in a SWAT-like 😄

[opaque birch]

its goated tho but if you dont like it just rember that rule of cool trumps all

[drifting burrow]

i dont understand how the carriers of the vine women are wearing armor that can block 10mm ap rounds but look like they're wearing dollar store ass clothes

they just have invisible ass armor or something

[jolly verge]

they use vest without mesh

50/50 i would say, with and without mesh

[crude prism]

Void is trolling

Average Void activity, make armor invisible on enemies

[drifting burrow]

oh yeah you're the one who made that guide

i had to look at it for a sec because i genuinely couldn't find out why my bullets were being blocked

[crude prism]

It's good game design when you think you're being cheated and have to go to 3rd party sources for confirmation

[drifting burrow]

yeahh i didn't like that at all on my first playthrough when 1.0 released

[crude prism]

RoN obscures a lot of it's mechanics, but not in intuitive ways

Mostly just leads to confusion

And it would be easier for Void to just explain these things because SOMEONE will eventually summarize it all for those who want the info. I wasn't the first lul

Tarkov is currently doing this with the ammo/armor systems, because they got mald of people just referring to the wiki with all the information

They couldn't keep it obscure, so they gave in to what people wanted.

[prime wing]

it would really highlight how little of a game there is if the mechanics were explained

[opaque birch]

We Do Not Claim Responsibility

• John "Yes the crackheads have invisible armor. You dont. Skill issue" Void

[crude prism]

Eh, I think the opposite. Explaining the systems around calibers/armor/health/ricochet/spalling/penetration/overpenetration etc etc etc

They don't need to get into the nitty gritty of AI stuff, but not everyone is a gun nerd lol

[prime wing]

ballistics wise, It may be due to the fact that some things are not finished or fully thought out, unless the current systems in that category are actually the final version of their take on these things

which would be

disappointing

[crude prism]

I'm sure they'll clean up the outstanding issues with the ballistic systems anyday now

[quasi blade]

.50bmg when

[misty island]

Game is... ok. Do not buy it for 50 EUR or USD. Buy it on a sale. If you do not care about the achievemnts and jus want to play with your frieend - go for it(on a sale!!!). You will still encounter some stupid bugs and shit, but not as much as single player.

[misty island]

They havee L3 armor

[drifting burrow]

well yeah i know that from the document taht mmmm guy wrote, its just that the armor is invisible

[misty island]

Wait. So you are saying, that an enemy with out armour on his model can have L3 armour(Carriers of the Wine)?

[misty island]

If only VOID cared enough... Fucking circus.

[misty island]

What are the issues atm? I do not think that I encountered any and I encountered a lot of issues...

[muted star]

Seems like a lot of walls are paper thin for ai

[crude prism]

There's a lot of behind the scenes stuff that isn't working properly, as well as balancing issues, etc.

I could make a list if you want, but like, it's a bunch

[misty island]

Sometimes, they can stick their hands inside the wall and shoot you, so less walls to penetrate for them.

[misty island]

Oh, nah. Asking for the list would be too much. I just never saw an issue with the ballistic system and that is why I was curious.

[crude prism]

On Sins of the Father, the dudes in form fitting suits have access to lvl4 armor lmao. It's dumb and unintuitive and unfair

[misty island]

One or few examples would be fine sufficient to understand the scope of the problem.

[misty island]

OH!!! So, their model do not correspond to the armour. That's fucking nuts. And I thought I was fuckign crazy.

[dark hound]

Where do I get modpacks? (I'm too lazy to make one myself)

[crude prism]

Multiple calibers still have 0% bleed chances (all of these are JHP ammo types).
Recoil debuffs are flat increases, which disproportionately affects SMGs as they become uncontrollable as soon as you are hit once in the arm.
Some calibers don't deal enough headshot damage to kill suspects, leading to weird gameplay occasionally (this is subjectively not a bad thing).
Feb 6th patch broke damage calculation SWAT AI + Suspects only deal half damage to body armor, making it so you can soak up to 33 shots without damage while wearing ceramic.
4x scope is misaligned, does not shoot where the reticle is.
Lasers become misaligned with the barrel when you use canted aiming, this varies per weapon, but can literally make you miss by like 12 inches at 10meters.

[muted star]

Reason why many people run gunfigter tbh

It helps with some of this stuff

[crude prism]

Ayup

[misty island]

Thank you, amte, you are the diamond of this community!

[crude prism]

Some of these are long-outstanding too, so like, pain 🥲 👍

[misty island]

Yeah, but still. I have the game from almost realese to EA, but nevr palyed it too much, because of cracked AI.

[misty island]

Oh yeah, I tough the canted bug is with pistols, but then soome rifles...

[misty island]

Maybe you will know, how to solve my keyboard doing a doudlee press /j

[dusky mason]

Guys how do I unlock the shotgun and mp7 and the other guns cuz I can’t find them in the gun sectiln

[stone stump]

no guns are locked. you just have outdated mods

[misty island]

Do you have mods? On th top you should see tabs labeled someetinh like "riflese/sng/shotgun". Try swtiching them.

[hexed granite]

i remember the little conversation when RON first got released, all those rumors and wives tales about dynamic and simulated fragmentation and penetration through surfaces and armor, accuracy and movement problems after being shot

obviously none of it was true or concretely promised, but this game was kinda egged on to be a new visceral shooter

hilarious when people compared it to siege when it was pretty much a semi-separate beast of its own

[shy tulip]

It's in concept what R6S was teased at E3, except it's not a pvp game at all

[hexed granite]

that siege CGI teaser lives semi rent free in my head

so fake in hindsight, but boy howdy did it spark conversation in the moment

[humble mauve]

There was a playable build of the game shown off that looked close to 1:1 with the trailer

[tacit gull]

I'm pretty sure that system was (or still is from what some people are saying) in the game, they just completely replaced it with the chance based stuff we have now

Accuracy and movement is affected but it's to such a negligible degree that it has next to zero impact on gameplay

[crude prism]

They don't really simulate fragmentation (as in bullets splitting into multiple projectiles) but the rest of that they do.

[stone stump]

skill issue

[uncut cliff]

i just found out that if you kick the person you are spectating your game bugs until the mission is done

[elder sigil]

I have a stupid question, if I C2 a trapped door will I be able to waltz through without exploding or will I get exploded? #🎨ron-screenshots-and-art message

[elder sigil]

Aight found out that it's good, thought there would be a secondary explosion or something.

[lilac plaza]

Hey guys new to the game. Got like 5 hours in. How the hell do I do Isles of the March or whatever the mission is called where they try assassinating the senator? I can usually clear out 1204 but thats about as far as I get

[elder sigil]

Slow is smooth smooth is fast.

[lilac plaza]

So take it slower? Been trying to do that but no matter how I go about things I'm getting flanked or shot from who knows where. Game has been pretty fun but they've got me beat on this mission

[elder sigil]

Have you tried taking a different path? What I like to do is go through, check my left and right, and go through that room in the middle and clear it, then I'll check for open doors.

[lilac plaza]

Only way I havent tried going is clockwise coming out of the fire entrance. I have been mainly trying to check my left and right, and go counter clockwise around the big room, clearing each apartment

[elder sigil]

Also what weapon you using?

[lilac plaza]

I cant remember exactly but im using mk16 iirc and the AIs have MX something ARs

[elder sigil]

Okay, try clearing the big room that's in the middle first where the DJ guy is, assuming that's where you might be getting flanked from.

[lilac plaza]

Alright Ill try that. Where do you usually go from there? Just any of the apartments?

[elder sigil]

After clearing the middle room I like to either take the door that leads me to the other end of the hallway, or go back through where I came in, and check for open doors and checking the hallways for any of them.

[ionic gale]

Hey ladies, gentlemen and toilets from Costco

How are you all?

[normal glacier]

Try moving through the hallways and wedging all the doors. I usually clear the hallways and do that first, then clear middle room and then each room 1 by 1. Wedges are crazy useful once you start using them and trapping suspects. Also gas grenades

[elder sigil]

I really only start focusing on using wedges for the Mindjot server mission, wedges are king, especially on that mission.

[normal glacier]

Yep. Lately I’ve been clearing perimeters and blocking off entrances where I want them. Playing maze games with the enemy lol

[lilac plaza]

I got a couple wedges on me but I dont think enough for all of the apartment doors. And I've mainly been using flash grenades but they havent worked too well so I did end up switching to gas

[normal glacier]

Your teammates have them too and you can have them add more

[lilac plaza]

Ohh true, how do I make them wedge the door?

[normal glacier]

I use the gas launcher and use regular flashes. I give my other teammates a bunch of wedges flashes and mirror guns

[elder sigil]

Middle mouse click, and there should be some commands, I forgot the exact buttons.

[normal glacier]

Just open commands on a door and select wedge door

[lilac plaza]

Thats greyed out for me. Guess they dont have any?

[stone bay]

Ides of march only has less than 10 enemies. Just shoot your way through and you’ll be fine

[normal glacier]

This is gonna change the game for you once you start doing it

[normal glacier]

Are you pointing directly at the door? Maybe so if you took them away. You should have like 4 total by default

I usually give teammates 2-3

Then I never run out

Impossible to get flanked if there are no flanks lol

[lilac plaza]

I might have. I did end up changing their armor to heavy vest and steel plates since I read it doesnt affect their movements. And the vests as far as I know affect space so I might have taken them out

[elder sigil]

I like to keep it Ceramic, so that it doesn't spread the damage to my limbs (I like my limbs)

[lilac plaza]

Keep it ceramic for the AIs too?

[elder sigil]

if you want to keep it Steel then go ahead, it's just a personal preference of mine.

[lilac plaza]

Wait so if I keep it steel and they get shot at, what gets affected? Do they just get reductions in their accuracy and movement speed etc? Or how does that work

[stone bay]

Ceramic is good enough for AI. They usually snipe down enemies pretty fast, with a few exceptions though

[lilac plaza]

exceptions how so? the ai have been pretty good on my end

[stone bay]

If you micro them properly and don’t use them to breach rooms they don’t really need steel

[lilac plaza]

ive seen a lot about how people say they suck though so im curious about that

[stone bay]

Don’t leave them in the open, enter rooms yourself. Then they are great as static sentries to guard flanks

[lilac plaza]

The main way Ive been using them is to breach rooms until I can get better with aiming and all that good stuff. To search the room and secure once I get all the suspects as well

[elder sigil]

Typically yeah, you get a reduction in accuracy and movement speed due to the bullet fragmenting into your limbs.

[stone bay]

If you use them to breach rooms then get steel maybe. Since they’ll be taking more hits

[lilac plaza]

Whenever I enter a room by myself its so easy for me to miss suspects and get lit up. How do you usually go about it? Just mirror the door, check for traps and suspects, and clear the room checking all the directions?

[elder sigil]

You can have your AI teammates breach and clear with flashbangs and the likes.

[stone bay]

Ceramic breaks after a few hits

[lilac plaza]

I noticed there is red and blue team. Could i mix both, 2 for breach 2 for sentries?

[normal glacier]

I let them c4 the door then I launch a gas grenade and push myself. Their cough is the last thing they hear

[elder sigil]

You can have a specific team breach a room. You can have red Team breach a room while Blue Team will stick with you, then if you want Red Team to fall back in, you can look at the bottom right of your screen and press Z when it says "Fall In"

[elder sigil]

I love C2

Oh there's a suspect camping the door with a rifle? C2 will solve your problems.

[lilac plaza]

I might have to try that then. Get a mix of both going on

c2 is just an explosive breach right?

[normal glacier]

C2 + gas is so fun. I give all my ai the Hunk masks with red. Shit is. Fierce

[elder sigil]

Yea

[lilac plaza]

does it have good range of how it stuns the enemies? or is it only someone whos like right next to the door

[elder sigil]

Makes the door go kablooey, incapacitating suspects that are too close, and it'll also incapacitate civilians that are too close as well.

[normal glacier]

I haven’t had anyone fire a shot until we pushed the room. It may internally “shock” the suspect ai when the c4 goes off

[elder sigil]

I'd be pretty shocked too if I saw a door go from closed to out the window in the span of a second.

[normal glacier]

You do raise a fair point

My favorite is c4 breach + stinger + gas launched as soon as the door blows. Once we actually hit the room everyone is already down with hands up lol

[lilac plaza]

Hey so Ive got a trapped door with a rifleman behind it, how would I go about that? Just peek the door, cut the wire, and breach? or is there a better option. my bad for all the questions just tryna get a handle on how to do things

[elder sigil]

Do you have C2?

[lilac plaza]

not currently on me no

[elder sigil]

Do your teammates have C2?

[lilac plaza]

I dont believe so

How would i check? would the roster show it?

[elder sigil]

Middle mouse click, breach, and check if it says breach with C2. I think that's the proper thing.

[lilac plaza]

only kick and leader for the breach options

which i guess leader means breach on my call

[elder sigil]

Try Middle mouse click, clear, clear with C2?

[short patio]

Anyone having issues with crashing the past few days?

[elder sigil]

I completely forgot the AI commands lol.

[lilac plaza]

flashbang, stinger, launcher and clear without anything and leader are my options

[elder sigil]

Ah, then I assume there isn't any C2 then, sadly, you can sit there and wait for the guy to leave, you could try and shoot through the door if ya want, or you could save that room for last and check the other rooms... Some rooms connect with each other.

[elder sigil]

I haven't had any issues lately.

[lilac plaza]

ok thanks. i managed to get all the other doors wedged off so ill see if theres another door

[normal glacier]

You can have your ai disarm it. The guy won’t shoot

When your ai disarm the suspects don’t ever notice

[elder sigil]

Interesting.

[lilac plaza]

Really? Do i need to middle click on the wire? or is it an option under something else

[normal glacier]

I’m on controller so hard to say but I just tap my command button on the door and it tells them to disarm it

Should pop up as a command option though

[elder sigil]

I think you middle click, and it should say "Disarm trap" as one of the options.

[lilac plaza]

huh. ill go take a look then thanks

[normal glacier]

Now that you know a lot of this you may want to change your ai loadouts back to default and try some of this. I had a hard time too until I started utilizing a lot of equipment I figured was useless

[lilac plaza]

Definitely will do that. I just dont want to quit mid mission and deal with this mental health stuff. Ive already had like 5 people go into therapy cause they had a crisis going on. and thats after me using practice to try and clear this place

Got the guy. Managed to find another door around and cleared on my count. AI was able to disarm the trap though from the inside. Dont know about them peeking the door and disarming it tho

[elder sigil]

You can peek a door and disarm the trap.

[acoustic ridge]

tell ai to mirror/scan the door, they should notice trap, then you should pick lock and middle click door and tell to disarm
you yourself can also disarm it

[lilac plaza]

I know I can but I didnt know about them. Really cool feature though for them to be able to do everything you do

[acoustic ridge]

except use m320 efficiently

[lilac plaza]

oh so thats what the scan button does then. I didnt know what that was really for

[acoustic ridge]

scan is basically budget mirror gun i think, i dont really use it since i just give them mirrors and enemy ai shoots them when they try to pie the door

[lilac plaza]

Btw can some doors be wedged off to you? Like not your wedges, but the enemy wedging the door? I mirrored an apartment and it seems like the wedge goes on both sides. If so then can I do anything about that? Or do I need to find a different way to go

[amber dock]

You can take out wedges

[acoustic ridge]

some doors dont let mirror gun go under

[lilac plaza]

How do you take them out, and doors not letting mirror guns go under must be a different mission because I havent met a door yet that wont let me

[acoustic ridge]

i dont think you can remove the blocker for mirror gun, just tell ai to flash and clear or use c2

[amber dock]

You should be able to crouch and remove the wedge

[elder sigil]

Look at where the wedge is placed and press f once it gives you the prompt, then hold left click.

[amber dock]

it'll prompt you with the multitool

[lilac plaza]

Enemy wedges on the other side?

[acoustic ridge]

i dont think suspect ai uses wedges, if they do just c2 it

[elder sigil]

That's your own wedge, enemies can't wedge.

[normal glacier]

With your lock pick tool. Can also blow them with c2

[lilac plaza]

Maybe Im trippin then. I went to mirror and the wedge goes on both sides, but the other door i wedged doesnt

[elder sigil]

C2 fixes all problems

[lilac plaza]

ok i was seeing things then. All of them have wedges on both sides

[elder sigil]

Did you beat it?

[lilac plaza]

Just now yeah, took things VERY slow, made sure to plan out everything. Right now im searching and securing evidence and such. Thank you a lot for your help. I fired a couple guys and had 3 go incapacitated and I dont even know how many to therapy because of this mission lol

But just now made it out with all 4 of my guys and ill go back to the armory and redo the loadout

[copper cypress]

Can a suspect order a civilian to surrender and ask him to move to his location?

[vernal bane]

No

[copper cypress]

Oh~ Ok.

[grim hound]

Is there a shield mod where the vision is wider??

[elder sigil]

Therapy everyone from Stressed and up.

[lilac plaza]

Thats what ive been doing but it fills up so fast so I mainly worried about the ones in crisis

[stone bay]

with nexus mods, I'm having a thing with it, I'm trying to play with someone, we're using nexus mods, we have the same mods (the only mods we have on is the "NVG always on mod") they get kicked everytime they join me because "we must have the same mods activated"??

[jolly verge]

Disable checksum in settings if you host

[amber dock]

^

[shy tulip]

Praying for the day that the game does it automatically

[stable kernel]

There's a good reason to do it for random multiplayer, since people can join with all sorts of shit to lag or crash people

[elder sigil]

Understandably so, but it takes longer for them to get back on duty when they're in Crisis compared to stressed.

[leaden holly]

Does anyone else wish they put more civilians in with more variety, I have got to a point where I know who's a civilian and who's a naughty boy and I never accidentally shoot a civilian

[dusky mason]

Guys

How do I get shotgun and mp7 cuz I can’t find it in my gun section

Someone told me I have outdated mod so how do I get the newest one

[shy tulip]

Delete the old one, install the new

#❓modding-faq-archive

[dusky mason]

I need mods for shotgun?

[shy tulip]

No. You can't view those weapons because you have a broken mod

[prime wing]

First step is deleting old mods

in order to try the new weapons, which have been in for a long time.

[tacit gull]

why he do that

[copper cypress]

Why does 5.56 AP hit a suspect wearing L4 armor and still over-penetrate and hit civilians😑

A civilian standing behind the suspect was wounded by a bullet fired by a SWAT Ai.

[tacit gull]

Maybe they shot through one of his limbs? I'm unsure if armor actually stops bullets or not but i think it should

[copper cypress]

All right @@

Civilians like to stay behind suspects these days lol

[copper cypress]

How long does it take for the system to determine that the system is in a non-combatant state after a firefight ends?

I just executed a surrendered suspect 5 seconds after the firefight ended, but I did not trigger the kill me command😂

[upbeat heath]

What was the multiplayer voice
Mcbell? Whatever
Its propably the most aggressive one
I love it

[blissful harness]

Can the Void please make us have our selected voice instead of Judge when we're solo'ing without the AI?

They had that when the 2.0 update first dropped, but they pull that back for some reasons.

[stone stump]

are you from the future? have they fixed the game yet?

[blissful harness]

One day, son. One day.

[stone bay]

Has VOID fixed the character traits

[jolly verge]

yeap, they now working when unlocked

[dusky mason]

Do I need mods for shotgun?

[jolly verge]

what shotgun?

[dusky mason]

Weapon and the one that stuns

[jolly verge]

nope, you have them all

[dusky mason]

I’ve seen someone use the weapon in the hospital raid and I’ve seen stun in yt vids

[dusky mason]

They aren’t in the fun section or anywhere

Gun*

[jolly verge]

in shotgun section

[dusky mason]

How about the Mp7

[jolly verge]

it's in smg section

[dusky mason]

UMP is smg, right?

[jolly verge]

yeap

[dusky mason]

I don’t see the sections tho

I bought the game on Monday

So kinda new

[dusky mason]

VERY new

[jolly verge]

you click on primary and then click what type of weapon you want, rifles, smgs or shotguns

[dusky mason]

If I click on primary, there are the weapons on the left

[jolly verge]

check a bit higher

[dusky mason]

I don’t see anything except assualt rifles

[jolly verge]

it's rifles section you see

[dusky mason]

There is Ump tho

Well I’ll try searching higher tho

Maybe your right and I was searching wrong

Do I have all the missions if I make a public lobby? Or I need to unlock them like in solo leader mode

[jolly verge]

commander and practice missions need to be unlocked, but in multiplayer lobby they all should be available

[dusky mason]

Okay thanks for the help

[wheat wren]

What is VKS?

[copper cypress]

Pepper ball launcher.

It is a non-lethal weapon.

[acoustic ridge]

(better than the smg version, vks can hold 25 pepperballs per mag)

[quasi hound]

guys i just downloaded ready or not how i play it im new

[copper cypress]

The SMG version gives SWAT Ai a higher rate of fire when used.

[grim hound]

which one is the gun that's the child between AR and SMG? MPX? Is it good?

[misty island]

MPX is ruined. Too bouncy.

[grim hound]

how about MCX?

Also SIG MCX .300 BLK (mod) ?

[lilac seal]

play the tutorial, it teaches you like everything

[misty island]

"Everything"
Nah, it teachees you like how to walk and press lmb.

[lilac seal]

ok maybe an exaggeration but it teaches you the basics

[true panther]

The MPX is such a weird one, every other gun can be useable but the MPX is strictly just worse than every other rifle and SMG. They really need to tone down the recoil on it, it really shouldn't climb twice as much as any of the ARs.

[grim hound]

Can we add multiple preset for AI team?

[coarse gulch]

make the game cheaper 😭 (or just do a discount for some days)

[misty island]

You will have to wait for the next Steam sale, that is 27.06.2024.

[coarse gulch]

😫 🔫

[misty island]

Do not worry, at this moment it's not worth it.

[umbral oar]

There are lies on the line, watch it!

[dusky mason]

is SMG type guns still good like rifles

With armor piercing ammo

Or like 50% less damage and not worth to use a MP5 or other stuff

?

Is smg type guns good (mainly asking about MP5)

the damage

Ik it’s kinda stupid that I ask

Cuz it isn’t my goal to kill

But I need to find a gun that damages but does not kill

[grim hound]

Based on my personal feels (I'm clueless about ammo cal, etc.), it's solid pick, the classic MP5 I mean. But then again I'm not familiar with the game mechanic. So far, playing on Mindjot, Brisa Cove, Postal and Hospital duo with my friend, I have no issue with that. Need more tapping than AR but I guess it's solid pick still.

[dusky mason]

Thanks for info

[jolly verge]

There are 3 mp5 in game, mp5a2 and mp5a2 that shooting 9mm or mp5/10mm?

[dusky mason]

The one with “modified and a better version of MP5” description

I think it’s the a2

[jolly verge]

they all pretty much bad against armored suspects with l3a vests, you will need 9+ shots to incap them

ap ammo can pen only l2 vest, which is weakest one suspect can get

Just use this spreadsheet if you need damage values https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1d89lpFDA9lo_v13iBlnhtuA6DvuUnKfPaeo0d4RBGJ4/edit#gid=935017421

[grim hound]

Oh yeah. I'm doing more auto in Mindjot. But still incap and not kill iirc.

So far, I mostly just incap with SMG. With the exception is Kriss from mod that replace SPC9. That thing just straight murdering everyone.

[dusky mason]

Honestly does it even matter

What rifle should I just use

I can’t read it on phone

(I did a bit)

What weapon is the best choice for the tankiest loadout

I focus on damage

[jolly verge]

sa58

with ap ammo

on maps with default health it's always 1 torso hit to incap

[dusky mason]

Alr thanks for help

[dusky mason]

Oh wait

One more thing if you can help me with it

Is it worth using stun more than flash bangs? I’m gonna make a launcher loadout

[jolly verge]

what stun do you mean?

do you mean what grenades are better at stunning?

[dusky mason]

The grenades that aren’t flash bangs

You don’t need tactical googles

[jolly verge]

stinger and gas?

[jolly verge]

Stinger stun like flashbang, but deal some good amount of damage if exploded at point blank, also deal a bit more morale damage to suspect
Gas just create smoke that stun, deal morale damage and damage health a bit

[lilac plaza]

yall, on the sinuous trail mission, how did yall go about those rooms with tight corners? I get mauled over there. Trying to use a combo of gas and vks to clear the place, wedging when neccessary

[wispy cypress]

new maps when

[shy tulip]

Soon™️

[wispy cypress]

final released game when

[shy tulip]

3.0 soon

[leaden finch]

will we get new maps for single and multi?

[shy tulip]

There are two DLCs planned this year, one for Summer I think, I gotta check the roadmap again. It is safe to assume that yes, any map added will be for all modes, because why wouldn't it be

[leaden finch]

ok will they like make the game so id dosent decrese fps from 100 to 35

[shy tulip]

Shader caching is coming in the future

[leaden finch]

what does future mean

like how soon

[leaden finch]

?

[shy tulip]

There is not a date

[leaden finch]

bruh

[native rune]

Void is bad at setting dates, meeting them, and having the content work when it does come out

[sudden marsh]

Exactly, i wouldnt take their half ass announcements for what its worth.
until its actually added

[humble mauve]

Ill tell them to not announce anything at all

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[brave lodge]

https://tenor.com/view/swat-police-animation-iclone-3dsmax-gif-12455589

embed fail, use the shield my brotha

[ionic gale]

Helo

[lilac plaza]

i completed it after a couple more tries, im on the post office one now and its giving me hell. Still thinking shield? Tryna go non lethal and I didnt see a non lethal pistol option

[shy tulip]

There isn't a secondary LTL since the taser was moved to the tactical slot. They said they'll look into making it equipable in either or in the future.

[brave lodge]

Wouldn't recommend LTL given it's an active shootout against armoured enemies. I did it today with an HK416. For LTL, maybe try the MP5A3 with AP or MP7 AP. Just be prepared to dump rounds into targets to take them down.

Also shield for me is too clunky but up to you. I generally don't use a shield just on Mindjot it's so claustrophobic it can be helpful.

[stone bay]

yo can someone help me trouble shoot?

[acoustic eagle]

how to make any big mission unwinnable: use the move to exit command on civilians

[elder sigil]

I never really used the shield so I dunno, but I like to go through the main entrance of the post office, go to the area where there are 2 doors that lead into the same area, then head into the door on the left and clear the outside area, then I'll either go back to the 2 door area or I'll go in one of the side entrances through the truck bay. (There will be a decent amount of enemies on the outside area)

[ionic gale]

The Scar is a cool weapon

I got a mod to replace the disgusting Mil Spec stock with its traditional UGG stock

[stone bay]

so FISA is completely corrupt right

[frail quartz]

Depends on who you ask I guess

[shy tulip]

I think it would be safe to say that there are corrupt figures in the LS Field office

[celest maple]

not sure this can be determined with the facts we're given

[stone bay]

considering the port situation and how he specifically tells us to shut and lock the crate its gotta run deeper than that especially since hokan was an international operation

the fact that a FISA operational commander during a massive raid tells us to hide trafficking victims (as if we werent meant to find them) must mean that its deeper than a few corrupt digures

we see FISA involved all throughout the trafficking campaign, specifically the agent on postal and that whole situation

[stone bay]

is HRT also corrupt

[celest maple]

he’s not necessarily telling us to hide them, but possibly to keep them locked up so they can’t scatter — that way they can be kept in one spot for FISA to get their testimony for the federal investigation they’re conducting

[acoustic ridge]

or we can arrest them like every other civ we find??

[stone bay]

who the hell would lock trafficking victims in a crate instead of securing them there and bringing them out to the perimeter

[stone bay]

that too, why do we specifically stop and re lock these people in this crate

i threw a flashbang in the crate

and why didnt he tell us to lock any of the other crates? same logic applies here as the suspects couldve came and destroyed evidence, or to re seal the auction room incase the girls in there scattered

[celest maple]

we are just one strike team! Plus the rest of the port had yet to be secured so maybe he wants them contained until the backup units move in?

[stone bay]

one strike team that has zipties

the exfil point is like not even 100m away from the crate aswell

[celest maple]

all I’m saying is that the evidence is inconclusive

[stone bay]

he also literally threatens us

and judge says over the mic that its would be better to get them RAs

[celest maple]

I’m FISA guy’s lawyer and he is not guilty!!!

[stone bay]

pov jack adams right before getting domed

[acoustic ridge]

we have conducted an internal investigation and found no wrongdoing

[stone bay]

on another note i still find it funny about all the controversy people created over elephant when they announced its inception yet theres dead kids in cement barrels which no one gave a shit about

goes to show that the people writing articles on games never actually look into them

[celest maple]

he’s a federal agent and can’t even be held liable under 42 USC §1983 or 18 USC §242 — only under Bivens!!

[stone bay]

pov the 5.56 flying towards his head after he reached

[celest maple]

average gaming journo tbh

[stone bay]

the honest to god temptation to start writing journal articles and shit but playing the game first

[celest maple]

probably didn’t even play the game just saw a video of it and thought it was a school shooting, wrote article

[stone bay]

bet you 80% of them just looked at that briefing void posted when they first announced that a school shooting map would happen

[celest maple]

the article I saw was goofy and used it as a way to talk about gun violence irl… but homie it’s a game lol

[stone bay]

i dont think "its a game" is really a valid argument with ready or not

[magic hearth]

https://tenor.com/view/you-need-to-close-that-door-paul-freeman-warren-byrne-absentia-shut-that-door-gif-17811142

[stone bay]

i mean the whole point of their authenticity is to convey whats actually happening in the real world

its honestly scary and a bit nauseating to think that operations like this, and far far worse than this have happened before

[celest maple]

good movie if you have the stomach for it: Sound of Freedom

[stone bay]

is there dead kids in cement barrels or something

[celest maple]

not quite that bad, but it’s based on a true story of child human trafficking

[stone bay]

yikes

i live in a city thats got real bad problems with drug and human trafficking

like kids & teenagers scooped up off the street type shit

[celest maple]

yikers

this guy was a DHS agent and went rogue to go save kids because the government wouldn’t let him go officially

[stone bay]

oh and car fent + tranq

[stone bay]

american hero

[celest maple]

played by Jim caviezel too

[gloomy isle]

This game does go over the top in depicting events

[stone bay]

not at all

[celest maple]

the details in neon tomb got to me

[stone bay]

they hit the fucking mark when it comes to depicting real life events

[gloomy isle]

Um, yes it does

[celest maple]

the ringing phones made me think a bit

[stone bay]

fact of the matter is theres far worse shit thats happened in the real world, you'd vomit if you started looking into it

[gloomy isle]

How many active shootings have had 3, let alone 4, coordinator shooters in a school

[stone bay]

several

[gloomy isle]

Name them

[elder sigil]

Oh my god the upstairs part of this mission was an absolute pain.

[gloomy isle]

Columbine had two. Most shootings have one

Second, how many SWAT teams arrest 20 suspects with a 5 man squad

In one operation

[celest maple]

pretty sure Elephant is based on the movie Elephant

[elder sigil]

🐘

[gloomy isle]

Even the movie only had 2 shooters

[elder sigil]

I mean yeah but, it's a game meant for entertainment, they're going to put more than the "Normal" amount of shooters than you'd find. (Pardon my terrible wording)

[gloomy isle]

It’s still over the top

[elder sigil]

I guess? I mean, I don't think it was just some random blokes deciding to just, light the place up considering they planted bombs.

[gloomy isle]

Heck, the Iranian Embassy Siege, a real, famous hostage situation involving the SAS had, you guessed it, 6 armed hostage takers

[stone bay]

columbine had 2, john mcdonogh in 03 had 2, randallstown in 04 had 2, weequahic in 05 had 2, university of south florida had 3 in 06, northwestern in 07 had 2, henry ford had 4 (although this was a driveby)

[gloomy isle]

vs 30-35 SAS if Wikipedia’s correct

[stone bay]

to name a few

[stone bay]

when you consider the scale of the operations its a bit unsurprising

a massive trafficking operation? id expect atleast the amount they have on hokan guarding a stash that large

the only maps that have a small amount of suspects are typically the callouts, like gas station or sullivans slope, which makes sense

on other maps, they're ready for you, and they're waiting for you

these criminal organizations will do literally anything in their power to keep the operation afloat or buy enough time to save themselves

plus it is a videogame and theres a need for a bit of embellishment

[acoustic ridge]

they need more people so its harder to speedrun every mission after shooting like 3 people

[gloomy isle]

Well, I’m having some trouble finding your South Florida and Henry Ford shooting, but even then it really demonstrates the rarity of 4 active shooters

[stone bay]

in the defense of void, lore-wise wasnt the shooting influenced by the hand

What are you guys talking about?

who are known ingame to throw an innapropriate amount of bodies at an attack

[gloomy isle]

How the game can be over the top

[stone bay]

the realism of there being 4 shooters on elephant

that too

[elder sigil]

Wait there's only 4? I swear I thought there was more...

[stone bay]

in terms of storytelling, its not over the top at all, this is literally what you paid for

[stone bay]

The actual columbine had 2 and the movie had 2 so they probably just combined them

in terms of suspect counts ill admit theres a bit of embellishment

[gloomy isle]

The number of police on scene is definitely an embellishment. 5 guys to stop 15 terrorists

At that point, they might consider calling the National Guard

[frail quartz]

The exaggerates some aspects, but nothing that I could say "This could never happen"

[stone bay]

The police are probably way better trained tho lol

[stone bay]

national guard cant be deployed quick enough

most of the maps with 15 terrorists on them are callouts, like active shootings

Especially swat members

they dont have time to wait hours for the national guard to roll in so one building can be cleared out

[humble mauve]

5 team members is more of a gameplay limitation, the level of control you would need for all team of 10+ people would essentially need an entirely different control scheme in order to control that large of a squad

[gloomy isle]

You’d be sending 5 guys to their deaths.

[stone bay]

that too

I just don't understand why they can't get like 2 or 3 patrol officers to come in during the raid too tho?

even in games like door kickers setting up a plan for a team of even 8 units takes way more time

[stone bay]

because they arent trained

[gloomy isle]

I didn’t say it wasn’t acceptable for gameplay, but it demonstrates how much the game differs from reality

[stone bay]

i mean you can even see on some of the maps (relapse most notably) the briefing actually talks about sending in teams from both the underground entrance AND the front entrance, not either or, however the gameplay limitations prevent us from having 2 teams

it would be neat to see larger deployment amounts and alternative breaching points in co op (like the one villa map that i forgot the name of thats the sequel to lustful remorse)

by alternative breaching points i mean "2 guys here, 2 guys there" etc

[gloomy isle]

That would cool, but I also imagine could result in quite a few friendly fire incidents

[stone bay]

trigger discipline is the only answer to that

[frail quartz]

if you have multiple elements that split off and work independently from you then the game would be practically playing itself by that point

[stone bay]

thats why i specified "in co op"

[gloomy isle]

What else is over the top, how about “Sins of the Father.” When has that happened in the US? I’m sure you could find examples in another country, but in the US?

[frail quartz]

Ohhhhh I see what you mean

[stone bay]

not all the maps are based off real events

[stone bay]

I understand that but they can like hang back and secure the outside doors or something

[gloomy isle]

Obviously, but where’s the basis in reality?

[stone bay]

sins of the father is some whitehouse down type shit

[frail quartz]

Like I said, I don't mind the game depicting exaggerated/fictional events as long as its still things that could realistically happen

[stone bay]

To 100% make sure the suspects don't get away

[stone bay]

i mean

the ready or not universe really ramps up the left behinds to justify shit like that

[gloomy isle]

I could see one, maybe two, secret service agents going rogue and pulling off some insanity, maybe, but 10? Woah

[stone bay]

i think that with the lore in ready or not (especially all the corruption in los suenos) its justifiable

[gloomy isle]

What was the exit plan, anyway? They locked themselves up in a high rise

[stone bay]

plus werent all the secret service guys just members of the left behinds/converted

[stone bay]

thats cuz they wanted to kill his family i think

or kill him

[humble mauve]

Theoretically an entire government bureau played a key role in many assassinations at one point in time

[frail quartz]

The mission briefing says they're sympathetic to the left behind

[humble mauve]

So it’s not too questionable

[gloomy isle]

As I said, some things are over the top.

[stone bay]

I would really like to see ready or not dlcs where the swat teams are like sent on an op by the fbi or smth

[stone bay]

all it takes is one or two very convincing people in the team

[stone bay]

..you mean like the joint op at port hokan

[stone bay]

Yes and no

[frail quartz]

It's entirely possible that some of the rouge agents are veterans/closely related to veterans themselves

[stone bay]

i mean its feasible to think that some of the most sympathetic people in the team convinced/"brainwashed" the others into following them and going rogue

thats alot of hypotheticals though

like i said, suspect counts are embellished, the storytelling is not

[frail quartz]

Either way I wouldn't say its something out of the realm of possibility

[gloomy isle]

I’ll say that Neon Tomb has a massive body count, but I think that is possible given the situation presented. The less likely event is the cell of 15 terrorists coordinating and getting all the equipment for the attack

[stone bay]

yea the force of the hand is really really embellished

theres no way they'd have the like 50 active members that they do across both relapse and neon tomb

[gloomy isle]

And, then they have a spare 15 to attack the hospital, yes

[stone bay]

with enough arms to support them

but who knows 🤷 its pretty clear you can smuggle people into los suenos with ease

[gloomy isle]

I’d find it more believable, actually, if the Hand attacked with domestic weapons

[stone bay]

i think that above all the point of the game is less on basing the specific missions on real events and more about, and i hate this word but it does fit, making a comment on whats happening in the real world

[frail quartz]

If there's entire criminal cartels then I don't see what's stopping a cell of a notorious terrorist group from forming

[stone bay]

i mean that too

[frail quartz]

Yeah, the game has a message to send and it wants to convey it as much as possible

[stone bay]

we have criminal cartels smuggling in people by the dozens, cars, guns, drugs, everything with operatives embedded in the FISA to support their crimes

its not so out there, in the ready or not universe, to say that there could be a large scale terrorist cell, especially since their propaganda is probably ramped up due to the yemen incident

[gloomy isle]

The game is fiction. It’s portraying a US where things that could go wrong did go wrong

So exaggeration is expected

[stone bay]

you say that like there hasnt been shit just like this (not the terrorist shit, more directed towards the corruption and trafficking and drugs) in real life

[gloomy isle]

Drug raids happen. Gas station robberies happen. Human trafficking happens. Terrorist attacks happen. These things have happened

The secret service hasn’t set up a cell to threaten a Senator’s family. At least not yet, I suppose

If you’re also going to tell me some human trafficking ring lord had his private security detail of 15 fire at SWAT from his mansion, you’re going to need to give me a source

I can enjoy the game without accepting it’s all reality.

[quasi hound]

ive had this game for 10 hours noww andd i loveeee it

[frail quartz]

I feel like another big part of the social commentary in addition to the issues depicted in general is the fact that half the missions were directly caused/worsened by the negligence and actions of the state

[gloomy isle]

Very good point, Booper

[frail quartz]

Ides of March because of greedy politicians, Ends of the Earth because of a predatory healthcare industry, Neon Tomb because of indiscriminate bombing of civilians, ect

[gloomy isle]

Tracing the weapons and movement of the Hand could have stopped them from amassing for such a large attack

That said, I think they might have wanted us to look more at the consequences of foreign policy, like indiscriminate bombing of civilians

[frail quartz]

I recall a mask of one of the members of The Hand you unlock as evidence having a phrase 'I will fight the fire before it extinguishes our land'. written on it in Arabic

#🎨ron-screenshots-and-art message

[gloomy isle]

You could actually argue the “over the top” aspect just stresses, “If you let things go wrong, they can really go wrong”

[stone stump]

happening in the US*

[stone bay]

not just the US

happens to your north and south too

maybe not as bad in Europe, definitely worse in the middle east and africa

[gloomy isle]

You go to some countries at some points in history, the portrayal of the game itself isn’t that far from reality, minus the stingers, flashbangs, and mirror guns

[stone bay]

come across the Detroit border for a first hand look at what doing horse tranquilizer and car fentanyl does to a person

[gloomy isle]

I’m talking the secret service taking a politician’s family hostage levels

[stone bay]

not surprised

[gloomy isle]

Luckily, I would say we’re not there yet

In the US, I should say

[stone bay]

I mean they're definitely getting there

The US and Canada, politics are getting hot ever since our respective capital riots

[stone stump]

"maybe not as bad in Europe" maybe?

[stone bay]

idk shit about Europe past WW1, hence maybe

[stone stump]

also developing countries have their own issues and shouldn't be compared as equal to the developed ones (which isn't exactly helping my argument as the US is somewhere in between)

[sharp fox]

well i got blown up by the bombs on elephant cause i was too slow 😭

[stone bay]

if your uninstall the game does it keep ur progress or does it also delete it

[stone stump]

devs were competent enough to make it somewhat properly, so no, it doesn't delete it, because it's stored in %localappdata%

even though majority of the files there should be in %appdata%

[stone bay]

cool ty

[umbral oar]

bruh

[jaunty pebble]

Imagine if RoN had a system where instead of vests and shit just being cosmetic they would have different characteristics
And imagine if instead of getting a number for equipment you would instead equip it to different parts of your vest and belt kinda like in ground branch.
So smaller vests:

• Movement speed
• Leaning ability
• Faster changing equipment

And heavier vests would give you more armor and storage room in exchange for those same stats.

Also ron-discussion and general is more or less the exact same channel

[jaunty pebble]

Same with ron-media and game-clips

Like why

[shy tulip]

I prefer the current system. I don't want to be forced to use an armor I don't like the look of because it makes me more 1 inch faster.

That kind of micromanagement also just isn't built for RoN currently. Sure, there's the slot system, but it doesn't impact the cosmetic look of your armor

[wintry hatch]

WTF A REAL ELEPHANT?

[sharp fox]

no LOL
the elephant mission 💀

[wintry hatch]

bruh

[celest maple]

love this

[copper cypress]

Will you all kill civilians when suspects use them as shields?

[slender adder]

just headshot them bro

or throw a flash

[muted star]

Tho they could make separate models for heavy vest since it has more coverage

[copper cypress]

Lately I've only been using pepper ball launchers and haven't dared use a real gun🥹

[slender adder]

damn

it's just a game man

[copper cypress]

Yup lol

This game is very fun sometimes.

[misty island]

It is called lack of moderation.

[dusky mason]

What’s better to use

Stinger or Flashes

[misty island]

#🐜archived-bug-reports-channel message
@obtuse galleon
Yes, it happens pretty often. Usually it hapens because of crash or alt+f4'ing the game. That is why you need to back up your save files. If you did not, then every progress is lost.

[acoustic ridge]

stingers better aoe but can push doors open when you arent plnning to open them
flashes look and sound cool

[dusky mason]

Alright thanks for info

[acoustic ridge]

also im pretty sure suspects do seperate animations when you flash/sting, sting should be clutching stomach area, flash should be covering eyes if i remeber

[terse sandal]

do client side mods still not work in multiplayer?

[jolly verge]

Nope, why would they

what exact client side mods do you mean?

[terse sandal]

just like gun skins, i mean will it allow me to play multiplayer, i know others wont be able to see it

i remember being kicked off for having gun skins

[jolly verge]

it's should work fine, what error you get when you kicked?

[terse sandal]

cant remember, this was pre 1.0

I just find out that LVAR 50 cal is just a 1 shot limb amputator

[lost inlet]

its 50 bmg what did you expect?

[sturdy gazelle]

Nothing, just realised that im kinda psycho hving fun sending that in ppl’s face

[lost inlet]

playing against ready or not shitty AI do something to you

[celest maple]

... lvar... 50 cal... huh?

i can only imagine the recoil from a 50 bmg integrally-suppressed SBR

[elder sigil]

I love the integrally suppressed .50 cal LVAR.

[crude prism]

I use .50 BMG for my CQC police life, the suspects always drop after a single shot and it always causes collateral damage without wasting any extra ammo! So efficient

[tacit gull]

I love killing security guards through 3 floors on voll's house with it

[opaque birch]

HEY VROS

[opaque birch]

OH MY GOOOOD THIS GUY IS SO COOL. SUCH A PSYCHO

CHAT THE LVAR IS IN 50 BEOWULF NOT 50 BMG VROS. 🤓 👆

PLEASE LEARN THE DIFFERENCE OR I WILL DIE.

who hit the caps lock button when i wasnt looking vro

[sturdy gazelle]

Well… that .50 rlly screw ppl’s skull up

[crude prism]

jokes on you my beuwulf is actually a .50ae in a trenchcoat

[opaque birch]

2 50 aes in a trenchcoat

[crude prism]

more 50 per 50

[opaque birch]

true

[stone bay]

swat game funny

[elder sigil]

Isn’t the LVAR .300 blackout?

[tacit gull]

be quiet

[opaque birch]

mod gun

[stone bay]

no its 30 cal

[elder sigil]

Woah

[opaque birch]

no its a 30mm

[stone bay]

dam

i was more thinking 155mm howitzer

[opaque birch]

true

[split heron]

There is an LVAR 50BEO in Sniper or not

[opaque birch]

we know we were just discussing it

[split heron]

50BMG is too large for LVAR but I think 50BMG can be chamber in shotgun

[crude prism]

Once

[sturdy gazelle]

And 249 is fun for zombie

#🎨ron-screenshots-and-art message
@copper cypress
Damn you got so lucky here.
And what are your specks? You have like 20 fps.

@copper cypress Do you know, that SWAT AI is unaffected by CS gas in any way? So there is no reason to give them gas masks.

[hexed granite]

thats what im sayin

the only padding of gametime ill ever accept is spending hours on character customization alone, except for 1 exception

its been almost 5 months and its really wacky how they haven't implemented customized presets for customization cosmetics

[umbral oar]

just realized we cant check ammo for the lockpick gun?

[native rune]

You need to?

[umbral oar]

yes how else do i know how much ammo is left

[slim mountain]

Is the entirety of the US messed up in RoN or is it just the Los Suenos area towards the bottom of California

[sleek tiger]

Which launch version is the best? (DirectX 11, 12 and Safe mode)

[jolly verge]

dx12

[sudden marsh]

dx12

[sudden marsh]

Its been longer in other ways and the game still has bugs and issues that have yet to be fixed

[lofty vortex]

yooo does anyone know how to properly complete the hanged man achievement? I've tried it so many times and completed the level so many times for it not to pop

[misty island]

Depends on your system. You should experiment, but basically, DX12. If you have really powerful system, DX11 may be beneficial.

[sudden marsh]

im on a powerful system and dx11 was not beneficial at all, where did u hear that from?

it has more frame issues than dx12 from what i benchmarked

[misty island]

On DX11 you can pre-load shaders.

[sudden marsh]

dx11 is only good in select older games, but besides that dx12 is starting to become the basic standard

[misty island]

Firstly, did you do it in SP or MP?

[sudden marsh]

it can "preload shaders" but it obviously still has the issues that not using shader precompilation gives.

[lofty vortex]

im sorry whats SP or MP lol

[misty island]

it is OK, Singleplayer and multiplayer.

[lofty vortex]

single player

[misty island]

So, you had bots?

[lofty vortex]

yes

[misty island]

OK, wll, then why is there a reacon to use DX11?

[jolly verge]

yeah, but having +100 more fps it's better if you just compile all shaders on dx12, which don't really require too much time, besides dx11 have spike bug + heavy fps drop in some places

[sudden marsh]

there isnt, besides for older systems.

[misty island]

Didi you flash, bash and taze at least 3 times?

[sudden marsh]

yeah i encountered that alot on dx11, it was the worst time.

[jolly verge]

it's just for pc that don't support dx12

[misty island]

Well, OK. Thank you for explaining me, I was not sure, tbo.

[misty island]

And thank you to you too!

[lofty vortex]

no, i only did one of each

i need to do it three times??

[misty island]

Try doing each 3 times. You can do all of it one one suspect.

[lofty vortex]

if the suspect is surrendered, is it still alright for me to do it on them?

not cuffed but raising their hands

[misty island]

I do not know, but I got all achievements on my first try...

[lofty vortex]

damn wp

i'll try that method then, thank you

[misty island]

Yes, eveen if cuffed, but you will lose points for bashing and tasing. That is it.

[lofty vortex]

perfect

[misty island]

Ping me, if you need further help.

Or if you will succeed.

[lofty vortex]

[shy tulip]

Tell me how to file my taxes

[misty island]

WTF does that mean. Are in America?

[shy tulip]

Yes

[misty island]

How to becoem a mod, lol?

[shy tulip]

Bribery

[misty island]

So, you are interested in federal income tax?

[misty island]

Sad

[misty island]

As you did not respond, then I assume yes.
So firstly, you will need to fill this fomr(https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/fw2.pdf) form each employer.
Then all other earning according to this(https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f1099msc.pdf) or this form(https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f1099int.pdf).
Also you need you include stuff like charitable donations, state or local taxes and other shit, I hope you do not have that.

Then you need to choose a filling status. As Discord Moderator, it will be easy.

Then you need to decide how to file your taxes. Advice method is e-file, but I am not familiar with this, so use this link for help(https://www.irs.gov/filing/e-file-options).

Then you should decide if you itemize your return or you have standard deduction. I have no fucking clue what it is, so use this link(https://www.irs.gov/taxtopics/tc501).

If you own money, then you are fucked. If not, all good.

Then submit your return by filling deadline.

I used this shit to help you(https://www.usa.gov/file-taxes). If you need further help, then find someone else, because I have no idea what I am talking about.

I hope I did help you a little per your request.

Fuck, wrong server to do it, but anyway.

[shy tulip]

jesus

[misty island]

Is that bribery enough?

[misty island]

Tbo, I have no clue wtf I just told you what thee fuck I just told you to do.

[shy tulip]

Never said I was the one to bribe

[misty island]

Oh well. I hope, at least I somewhat helped you with your taxes.

[merry kindle]

"Then you need to choose a filing status. As a Discord Mod, it will be easy" is crazy

[misty island]

Why?

[merry kindle]

I meant that it was funny gang

Auto single filing status

[misty island]

Oh thank you

[misty island]

I was not really sure, if I made the joke at the correct time, as I did not fucking understood a thing that I wrote and read.

[merry kindle]

Pro strat for taxes is fuck it use TurboTax

If you're poor it's free and if you make too much it's only like 40 (for simple returns)

[misty island]

Sh-h... Do not let my work go to waste.

[misty island]

But it is only for US, lol

[merry kindle]

All your info is also US, IRS basically tells you the same thing tbf, that's how I found out ab filing for free years ago

[merry kindle]

Employer gives you W2 then you fill out 1099

[misty island]

I know. I am far from the US. The guy asked info for US.

[merry kindle]

Shouldn't need to request

[merry kindle]

Ahhhh

That makes sense

Idk shit ab other countries tax systems

[misty island]

Do not worry, neither do I.

[merry kindle]

I only know US bc I do my taxes so I was forced to learn it in HS

[misty island]

At leeast I know that I do not need to do some extra calculation, when I go to a shop.

[merry kindle]

TurboTax is basically an online tax prep shop/office

Auto fills and checks shit/e-files shi for a fee

[misty island]

I mean, basic shop. When you just go for a groceries, the prices on a product is without tax.

[merry kindle]

Oh you mean sales tax

[misty island]

xDDD

I like how you have "tax" for every fucking thing.

[merry kindle]

Some states don't have it in America tbh

[misty island]

Oh yeah, it is the same here "value-tax".

But it is included.

[merry kindle]

We have federal taxes which hit all 50 states and the 50 states each have their own weird systems and taxes for their own shit

[misty island]

Sorry, I do not really care about taxes.

Oh, ok

[merry kindle]

Me neither, I'm just bored

[misty island]

I reread it and understood it.

So, like US is one big countrry and each State is one "small" country?

[misty island]

And I am just drukn. trying to become a Mod here.

[merry kindle]

Honestly pretty accurate

[misty island]

That is what I always imagined.

[merry kindle]

It's like the EU but every country has a say in federal law and can do some of their own stuff, the federal government gets final say majority of the time though

The federal gov, regulates interstate commerce, infrastructure, military, etc

[misty island]

I always found funny, how you can be a "criminal" in one State, but other do not care.

[merry kindle]

And states also regulate their own infrastructure and commerce their own way

[merry kindle]

I smoke cannabis which is legal in Maine (a state) but technically according to the federal government it's illegal

[misty island]

And who has the final word?

[merry kindle]

But if I go to Texas (another state) it's illegal and I'll get arrested

[merry kindle]

State typically unless a federal crime is committed

The federal government allows states to regulate most controlled substances on their own but if a federal crime is committed you can get fucked by having it

It's a weird system to explain if you didn't grow up w/ it tbh

[misty island]

is not smoking a federal crime if it is not allowed?

[merry kindle]

Possession + consumption of weed is illegal at the federal level but legalized/decriminalized depending on state

If I fuck with federal agencies I can get in trouble but the federal gov really doesn't give a shit unless you're a terrorist/drug lord/criminal

[misty island]

Possession + consumption is not federral crime?

[merry kindle]

Technically yes, they don't actually care though and don't go after states

[misty island]

Oh, ok. It is, but theey do not care

[merry kindle]

Policing is done state by state not at a federal level

[misty island]

Fucking joke, tbo

[merry kindle]

There are federal agencies that police shit, but their main focus is gangs/terrorists/illegal weapons/meth/heroin

And they only take serious cases or if states call on them

Or if they just decide to fuck you

[misty island]

I get, that federal agencies do not care about a guy smoking at his home.

I just find the system a bit.. stupid.

[merry kindle]

Nah you're right lmao I didn't say it was a good system, better than some/a lot of countries but still very flawed

[misty island]

Well, US is quite big, so that may be the problem.

[merry kindle]

Idk what country you're from but true, a lot of US states are the size of whole EU countries

[shy tulip]

It depends on the scale of it. If you possess it and cross state lines, yes

[misty island]

I do not think that you eveen know the country I am from, lol

[misty island]

Are ther border police?

[shy tulip]

I haven't left the state by road before, so I'm not sure, I think there are some checkpoints but they're mainly tax reasons.

If you mean Canada and Mexico, yes, it's a federal agency

[merry kindle]

This too, i.e federal government covering interstate travel

They can fuck you, really depends on the state though and if it's legal rec/med

If I bring weed to NH I can get arrested but am fine if I go to MA

[soft narwhal]

There are only border police near borders to other countries including checkpoints within states that are bordering another country for obvious reasons. Otherwise, there aren't border police between states

[misty island]

yeah, ofcourse there are state police between countries. Well, at least between USA and Mexica with Canada. I tough mainly between States that check your car.

[merry kindle]

States don't have checkpoints with other states for the most part

Just a toll usually

[misty island]

Toll? like for what? Using a road?

[merry kindle]

Interstate Highway system

[misty island]

Or forr crossing a State you pay a fee?

[shy tulip]

Yeah just tolls to my knowledge, the feds aren't really out there patrolling highways like that unless they're close to the border I think.

There are state police however that are dedicated to highways. Highway patrol, and they're the ones that'll grab you for that

[misty island]

Oh, yes, ok, thank you!

[shy tulip]

If you're using a highway yes you get taxed, cause those taxes cover the road, they're federal land but are maintained by the states

I think even then they lose money

[merry kindle]

Very true, TX state police may search for cannabis/seek it out (bc illegal in TX) but ME state police wouldn't unless you're intoxicated or underage (legal in ME)

In my experience

[merry kindle]

I think it depends on the state but not really sure

[shy tulip]

I've never had an issue with Florida Highway patrol, so I can't say. Their squad cars are fucking terrifying

[misty island]

In EU, I think(really not sure), highway tax mostly only applies to large trucks.

[merry kindle]

I've never had an issue with any cops

[misty island]

Why are they terrifying?

[flint dagger]

Hey there! I just got the game, whats the best way to find a group to play with?

[merry kindle]

Normal FL shi

[shy tulip]

The color and addons to the car are just terrifying to drive near, especially compared to normal cops

[merry kindle]

So many trappers/dealers and shit in FL

[shy tulip]

You can queue randomly in-game or use #🔎looking-for-players / #📌unit-promo to find players, it depends what you want to do. Those are recommended for coordinated or modded lobbies

[merry kindle]

Mostly driving it to illegal states tho

[misty island]

#🔎looking-for-players

[misty island]

But in reallity, better play with friends.

[flint dagger]

I tried random queues, it felt like everyone was just rushing in by themselves so far, wasnt a great experience

[shy tulip]

Then yeah you can use the channels mentioned above to try to filter players and host the game yourself

[misty island]

I guess, I did not see any scary cops in my life.

[merry kindle]

Random queue is not the way unless you meet a random and have coms

[flint dagger]

I wanna play like "real" tactical and all

With people actually communicating

[misty island]

Really, you should play with your friends then, because most randoms are experienced or maniecs, that want to kill everyone.

[flint dagger]

Sadly, I dont have any friends that play this

[merry kindle]

Random guess but I'm assuming you're from Eastern Europe or somewhere near there

[misty island]

Yes, friends mostly or people you know.

[merry kindle]

Your English is similar to my polish friend

[misty island]

Or you should mention that you want to play tectical.

[merry kindle]

Usually groups in here from what I see, def people to play w/ in #🔎looking-for-players usually

[chilly gate]

I have all the Services You asking for but the Problem is

[misty island]

Ha-ha, if you say that in the country I am living now, you will get beatn(jk).

[chilly gate]

I dont have the game But when I buy it we can play I guess

[misty island]

What's wrong with my English? Honest question, I always wondered.

[merry kindle]

Nothing wrong w/ it

[misty island]

BTW, it is close, but Polish people will get angry too, if you call them "eastern".

[merry kindle]

But as a native speaker I can tell it's your second language

Idk why tbh but I can tell

[merry kindle]

Assuming Baltic then?

[misty island]

https://tenor.com/view/breaking-bad-walter-white-bryan-cranston-heisenberg-you-are-goddamn-right-gif-4508847

But I live in Cezchia rn.

[merry kindle]

Oh word

[humble mauve]

If you think that's terrifying

[merry kindle]

GA don't fuck around

[shy tulip]

That's just awesome looking

[misty island]

Lol
We have cheap sedans with "Help and keep safe".

Relatively cheap.

[merry kindle]

That's a lot of city level police

[misty island]

Relatively to that Mustang.

[merry kindle]

Staties got the nice stuff

[humble mauve]

they have camaros with pushbars

[shy tulip]

A signature of highway patrols

[merry kindle]

Maine runs explorers with pushbars

For their state shit

[normal glacier]

They said what, q2 for dlc? Or am I wrong? I feel like these briefings where they discuss round tables are cool, but it gives me the feeling whatever they are working on is far from done

[sudden marsh]

yes they actually announced dlc in this games state lol

[normal glacier]

I’m not really having that many issues and I’m playing on steam deck

[merry kindle]

People really like complaining to complain, game def has bugs that shouldn't be there but it's definitely more than playable+fun imo

[opaque birch]

wolfpax is this games biggest haters

[sudden marsh]

not really, its not just the bugs

[sudden marsh]

mindfully criticizing isnt hating

[merry kindle]

Criticism is valid, I see a lot of mf straight call the game unplayable and unfun though which is blatantly untrue

[opaque birch]

if ready or not has a million haters wolfpaxhd is one of them
if RoN has 100 haters wolfpaxhd is one of them
if RoN has 10 haters wolfpaxhd is one of them
if RoN has one hater wolfpaxhd is that hater
if RoN has no haters then wolfpaxhd is gone
if the world is not against RoN wolfpaxhd is against the world
every day is fuck RoN day for wolfpaxhd

[sudden marsh]

the game is playable and fun personally, but its a diamond in the rough and void isnt doing much to remedy the situation atm

[opaque birch]

and he the 🐐 for it

[merry kindle]

Now that's a valid take

[opaque birch]

this is the validest take ive seen on this game

[merry kindle]

I agree with diamond in the rough

If the game eliminated stutters and fixed swat ai not responding to commands I would probably have zero issues w/ the game

I've never got fucked by the ai personally

[opaque birch]

if swat ai didnt have brian dead the game would be GOATED cuz i know any game i play on my pc is gonna have mad stutters and bad fps

[merry kindle]

This game doesn't even stutter bad for me, it's only in really fringe situations and in the police station typically

[normal glacier]

Yeh I have a few random bugs but I think I’m at like 100 something hours and still finding it fun

[elder sigil]

Hmmmmm, Camaro or Challenger.

[silk junco]

camaro

[lyric star]

just finished the port hokan map

[copper cypress]

Their movement speed will not decrease! ?

[sudden marsh]

that map was terrifying

i was so confused on why there was an auction and slaves until i looked it up

[acoustic eagle]

takes ages to start a game and instantly connection loss when he dies....sigh

[daring flame]

TOC i need a jimmy deans breakfast sandwich

[stone bay]

The true Ready Or Not experience: Get kicked from 80% of the lobbies cause you are running mods that only let you use unused weapons like sniper and M14... 10% are people who dont know how to make a private lobby... and the other 10% are people that crash or i crash

And i'm too afraid of social interaction i just stay out of "looking for players" in this server lol

[stone stump]

literally bike fall meme moment

[leaden finch]

how soon will be the next update

[shy tulip]

When it ready

[stone stump]

#announcements message

[stone bay]

Or Not ? (ReADY OR NOT REFFERENCE!!=!=!?!?!!)

[thorny ibex]

what ever happened to the Less lethal training area in the headquarters?

[stone bay]

It's on the basement

[thorny ibex]

i cant find it

[shy tulip]

You unlock it after a certain amount of missions, I think towards the last six.

[stone bay]

Yep you need to unlock stuff now btw

[thorny ibex]

im on relapse and i dont have it

[stone bay]

hmmm

Ok when you spawn

Take a right and then a left right after the mission overview room

There you'll see a set of stairs going down

Go down and to your left is the CQC training area

[stone stump]

you seem to forgot that you can spawn in different places

[stone bay]

Oh right... Well i already got game on 100%

So i spawn in the entrance of the PD

[thorny ibex]

ig i unlock it after i beat relapse

ive been holding off relapse for weeks, its just such a slow map, and the hallways are a deathtrap

[stone bay]

It's a fun map with friendos haha

BUt yeah on Solo you gotta lock in

[stone stump]

the drawbacks of skill issue

[jovial tundra]

Is there a reason I start stuttering a ton more in multiplayer? Are the animations for players more taxing than npcs?

[stone stump]

nuh uh, it's networking (in simpler terms, the sync)

[shy tulip]

The game is P2P, so either you or the host have a poor connection, maybe both

If you're playing with a specific friend and they're in a different region, it may be an issue

[jovial tundra]

That may be the case, any way to force a specific region?

[stone bay]

Network sometimes is a mess, if you have a fine connection but struggle on Multiplayer dont worry it's not you, it's the host or the distance that the host is at

[stone stump]

frame stuttering because you're playing with someone far away? kinda weird

[jovial tundra]

Generally I get good connection in p2p so its probably that

[stone stump]

no, you can't physically move on demand

[shy tulip]

More like lag.

The host is the server, you can't really brute force that

[jovial tundra]

Dang

[shy tulip]

Or can you?

https://tenor.com/view/mrbeast-ytpmv-rap-battle-squid-game-squid-game-vs-mrbeast-gif-25491394

[stone stump]

you could drill a tunnel through the earth i guess

[shy tulip]

It's cheaper to run fiberoptic from A to B rather than A to B to C

[stone stump]

and it's even cheaper (as an ISP) if you ignore having a decent routing

entire country's traffic (belonging to a specific ISP of course) going through another (usually neighboring) country is more common than you think

[jovial tundra]

Game is good

[stoic monolith]

could someone tell me how the "search and secure" command works? whenever i try and use it my team just continues with the command originally given to them (usually "fall in" since i like to use balistic shield and push with them behind me)

[stone stump]

because they don't have anything to search and secure at the moment

[stoic monolith]

i had one civilian left to find

but weapons and securing targets im quite thorough with

[stone stump]

that command only secures stuff you've already seen

[stoic monolith]

ooooh ok

[stone stump]

which is stupid given how annoying finding the last stuff usually is

[stoic monolith]

yea

like the one where you raid a server farm, i was exploring everything but the last civ was on the roof

and i didnt know there was a roof lmao

[stone stump]

fuck up on your part, you have building plans available

[stoic monolith]

yea i dont use them that much

tbf i couldve when i was done with the hostiles

[lofty vortex]

@misty island i flash, bashed, and tazed at least three times of each and still didnt get the a chievement, idk what im doing wrong

[ebon lark]

Carriers of the Vine completely solo is a fucking nightmare, man

Twice now, left with 4 and 5 suspects and I die from those bushes leading to the chapel. I haven't been able to even get inside it, yet.

I've got the strategy and the "flow" of the map, how to clear it out effectively, but it always ends up being some random shotgun lady and then the chapel with the bushes that throw a wrench in the works.

[stone stump]

literal skill issue

[ebon lark]

I'm no gamer prodigy, but being shot through bushes because the AI doesn't care that they're in the way is bullshit

[stone stump]

then don't go near the bushes, wherever they are

[ebon lark]

You can't avoid the bushes, there's only one path to the last area with the chapel and the corner leading to the chapel is bushy, but the AI sees right through it and shoots you from inside the chapel if the doors are open.

They're basically impossible to see as they shoot you

[vernal bane]

@ebon lark Good habit is to flash over the bushes into balcony chapel, helps a lot

[copper cypress]

Can the shotgun in this game be used as a sniper rifle at long range?

My testing at the police shooting range found that the bullet spread was not as exaggerated as in other FPS games😮

[jolly verge]

yes, but not slugs ammo

[ebon lark]

I'd wager you can use buckshot against unarmored targets pretty far in this game, for video game standards at least.

[copper cypress]

What is the difference between Slug and Buckshot?

[ebon lark]

Buckshot is a bunch of lead balls, a slug is a solid single projectile
