[eager jackal]

(and my squad was busy or dead in the rest of the basement)

[lyric hedge]

Yeah, that rooms yucky

Concrete floor babies and stufff

[eager jackal]

Worse.

[delicate parcel]

it's a rough thing to see for sure

[eager jackal]

Understatement. It's been like, 6 hours and I still feel physically sick.

[delicate parcel]

i don't know how far in you are, but just to be sure you're aware, there are other various types of awful shit in this game

[eager jackal]

I've beaten every mission, I just never stopped and actually looked into or read the absolutely horrific stuff.

[grim elm]

Put those two together + riot control and you got a much easier path to s rank

I’m actually running that rn + whatever the name is of the perk that makes your officers calmer/less stressed

Lmao this sounds like a Clash Royale deck

[jolly verge]

both intimidator and riot control don't work right now

[grim elm]

Really?

How come?

[jolly verge]

idk, they just don't do anything
Intimidator have 0 impact on suspects morale value and riot control just don't increases stun duration

with intimidator you and your swat ai still deal same morale damage per yell (0.05 from player and 0.025 from swat ai), i tried modifying trait values to very high value, but in game results stays the same

so use only negotiator and pacifier traits for S runs for now

[thorny warren]

finally i did an S run on the car dealership map, which means only 2 levels left.
it's actually not that hard to play with one officer if you do it properly, and armor is pretty op

[delicate parcel]

the negotiator and pacifier traits worked out pretty well for me until i got too ballsy with it, which is on me

it's kind of a shame too, i made a pretty sick looking outfit for that run

[earnest phoenix]

is it intended that you can freely walk through ai's cs gas without a gas mask but can't walk through the one you threw

[stone bay]

So when is VOID planning on updating to fix the many existing issues as well as add new content to the game?
Most of the existing content that keeps me playing is from mods

[lost inlet]

[buoyant canopy]

Does anyone have any recommended entry points for Ides of March, I keep on dying due to bad cover spots and suspects running around in the corridor

[edgy linden]

The halls between units are kind of required to be covered with flanks as you go along especially earlier on. It's the most reliable way to not get clapped by the roamers with lmgs

[buoyant canopy]

Ty, got it done anyway

[edgy linden]

So if you're playing mp having two flank guards is prob good enough but with ai id recommend always having a team behind you facing different directions if you can place them

[buoyant canopy]

Mm

[copper cypress]

Does the thickness of the wall also affect whether a bullet can penetrate it?

[keen gyro]

bro im going non lethal i take the beanbag shotgun, when i fired at the dude, he dropped like a pile of shit his brain is all over the walls

what type of non lethal is this

the only thing good about it is he didnt feel anything he died instantly

[shrewd scarab]

beanbag shotgun is less-than-lethal not quite nonlethal

[keen gyro]

could have used a frag granade launcher at this point

[shrewd scarab]

can you kill people if you shoot them with the flashbang launcher ?

[buoyant canopy]

I need a gun with great dmg, any recommandations?

(primary)

(automatic)

[shrewd scarab]

SA58 if you want to spill blood

[sinful vessel]

shotgun with slugs

oh wait, i didnt see the automatic part

[buoyant canopy]

Ty
I tend to fire too little shots and nearly die every time because of that

[sinful vessel]

still, shotgun if you wanna do a little trolling

[buoyant canopy]

Ugh, playing gresed palms and I only got some civilian hanging around here

Meaning it's one hell of a job to find

finally

[acoustic ridge]

lvar or arn180 are good
not as much damage as sa58 but 30 round mag

[copper cypress]

In addition to the terrorists in neon nightclubs who wear bomb vests, are there some who don’t wear body armor?

[lost inlet]

Nope all of them wear body armor

[copper cypress]

Got it.

Anyone without a body armor must have a bomb vest?

[lost inlet]

idk about that, i mean you would still bring guns that can pen tier 3 armor anyway so you not at disadvantage when the one wearing bomb vest showup

[copper cypress]

I'm debating whether I should carry the SRL47 or the MP7.

7.62x39 JHP vs 4.7x30 AP

[lost inlet]

AK, put 2 rounds into all of them and they all get incap

[copper cypress]

One can easily fail a mission by accidentally killing an important target, and the other has insufficient stopping power.

I just caused Qadamah to die unexpectedly with 7.62x39 and the mission failed.

However, if 4.6x30 is used, it will not be able to effectively knock down the suspect when hitting his hands and feet.

[steady linden]

Are the future updates gonna add NPCs simply living their lifes until you swat? Was kinda sad that the Streamer Mission wasnt actually a one-man hostage situation, but rather a gunfight against his suprisingly well-armed goons :<

[lost inlet]

Could use grenade or use pistol(except 357) and land a headshot

or take AK with AP and 2 taps him as well

[copper cypress]

🤔

[lost inlet]

also you don't have to use ak, just any rifle that can pen tier 3 armor

[copper cypress]

Yup

[ivory kiln]

what's the point of using smgs

[next olive]

many small bullets may or may not be equal to one regular bullet

[ivory kiln]

yeah but one big bullet is enough

also hewwo tay

fancy meeting you here

[next olive]

why aim with big bullet when u can spray with little bullet

[ivory kiln]

and besides rifles and smgs both have equal mag size

[lost inlet]

short and low recoil before your arms got injured

[ivory kiln]

that's cool

but i'm still more an MCX guy

[lost inlet]

prefer ARN, MCX kick quite a lot, LVAR just no

[ivory kiln]

nice

i don't really notice recoil

and hey 300. BLK is a big round

30 rounds in the mag

for me that's good enough

[lost inlet]

ye 2 rounds is all you need to put down anything that move in this game

[solemn cape]

I just had the Shortest round of RELAPSE of my Life... 8.5 Seconds.

[lost inlet]

got killed by who?

[ivory kiln]

bruh

[sharp fox]

killed by trap?

[ivory kiln]

No traps in relapse

[sharp fox]

i swear there was

oh well

[ivory kiln]

Likely someone showed up out of nowhere

[solemn cape]

I entered through the emergency lobby, turned right, checked with the Optiwand, nobody, opened the door. PEEK a BOOM... im Dead.

[ivory kiln]

Must be that crack aim

Surprisingly i don't have issues with the AI anymore

No need for no crack for ai

[solemn cape]

wasn't even the aim itself, was the fact that he POPPED out of nowhere. I So wished i had replay on. would be Hilarious.

[ivory kiln]

relatable

[buoyant canopy]

Where do I find the bombs in Elephant?

[ivory kiln]

they're randomized

[solemn cape]

i think they can spawn in Any of the Rooms, not sure if they have specific rooms to spawn, and other without a chance of spawning. haven't played elephant that much.

[buoyant canopy]

Well that ain't good news for me, I usually go slow but 11min timer on the bombs so

[river tide]

the bombs have set locations they can spawn at

[buoyant canopy]

Anyone know if it's a bug, one of my operatives have disappeared but still shows healthy

[jolly verge]

did you checked his headcam?

might just stuck somewhere

[buoyant canopy]

Just checked, he's stuck in a damn shelf somewhere

[sharp fox]

elite swat operatives cant get through a shelf

[buoyant canopy]

Bro was just staring at some chemical equipment, I had to hold the team to retrieve him

[copper cypress]

Is it possible for a beanbag shotgun to hit a suspect at close range like a Taser but be ineffective?

[stone bay]

Idk

I don’t go non lethal

[fiery moth]

What do you mean by ineffective?

Will it stagger the suspect? Yes

Will it make him surrender? No

I’m pretty sure the beanbag shotgun doesn’t even damage the suspects at all

You can kill civilians with it though

[jolly verge]

it's deal 5 damage and insta kill if you headshot anyone with it

[fiery moth]

Good to know

[jolly verge]

headshot not work against your swat ai with beanbag

[fiery moth]

Well obviously, they wear helmets

[eager owl]

someone wana play with me im new

[jolly verge]

nah, it's ignores armor, and even if you take their helmets off it's still 5 damage

[fiery moth]

lol

[delicate parcel]

i'd be down. won't be free for a good while though, i've got a bunch of classwork to do today

[eager owl]

join eu1

[steady linden]

I prefer to use something without any recoil...

[lost inlet]

F90 or G36

[steady linden]

Even less

[lost inlet]

they both have low to no recoil

[stone bay]

I’ve been running the zombies mod for a good month now, and even using the maximum difficulty isn’t that hard unless you get cornered. The SWAT AI more than compensate.

[lost inlet]

true no recoil is MP5A3 with suppressor and combat grip

[steady linden]

No. Say my name.

[stone bay]

Sometimes it does

[inland jetty]

guys does gunfighter conflict with sniper or not

[lost inlet]

Pepper spray?

[stone bay]

What gunfighter parts are you using

[lost inlet]

please more like fruit juice

[steady linden]

[steady linden]

I never claimed it to be effective, only called it recoilless

[stone bay]

It would be nice if when clearing with flashbangs, you could have multiple guys clear at once.

[lost inlet]

the true recoilless is the mirror gun, you pull trigger nothing push you back. Pepper spray do but too little to notice

[inland jetty]

all except flashlight and doors

[edgy linden]

I like the guns that go brrrr

[stone bay]

I use anim, device I forgor what else I use

[edgy linden]

When I shoot

[stone bay]

Kriss vector moment

[inland jetty]

how do u guys know if a mod conflicts with one another or not? what mod manager do u use?

[steady linden]

I like the weapon that goes "pfft pfft" and only works on 10% of suspects

[edgy linden]

Use the Glock then

[stone bay]

I just drop the pak in the paks folder

[shy tulip]

You generally should know what mods conflict based on what they do. AI mods will never mix for example.

Otherwise there isn't a mod launcher that will help you

[steady linden]

I am talking about pepper spray

[inland jetty]

Ok

[steady linden]

A glock will kill anything, given enough presses of lmb

[edgy linden]

It's because they aren't using good enough spicy sauce

[steady linden]

Gotta get a retexture mod that changes it to pressurised air, about the same effectiveness

[stone bay]

Just use ur spit

Pepper spray is meh

[edgy linden]

I prefer to use the pepper spray on surrendering suspects, especially if I'm alone and have 2-3

[steady linden]

Using them on hostages is also very silly

[edgy linden]

That way they can't pull gun cause stuck in ow animation

That's probably the most consistent and best use case of pepper spray, making sure suspects don't pull the force multiplier out after surrendering

[buoyant canopy]

Why do they gotta have maps where we have to search for a couple last suspects or civilians for 30 minutes

[true panther]

Use wedges to block off parts of the map and stop suspects from wandering, with the right wedge placements and clear route you can get all the suspects and civilians in a single pass on most maps.

[buoyant canopy]

Would have been useful if I hadn't died the second I finally found the last guy

Ty anyway

[steady linden]

Alternatively, you can try to split up your team to catch some wandering suspects on the move

[opal holly]

this swat ai is so bad

these guys dont do anything while im being shot at

[fickle turtle]

Silly question how to I ready up on steam deck

[delicate parcel]

getting the ai to stop doing dumb shit is kind of an art form in and of itself

[fickle turtle]

I select the mission but holding y doesn't start the mission

[buoyant canopy]

My operatives don't do a thing when I tell them to search the place so good luck on taht

[fickle turtle]

?

[buoyant canopy]

Press Y, don't hold

[fickle turtle]

That button only selects the fire mode

[buoyant canopy]

What?

Can you send me a screenshot of your controls

(misc controls)

[fickle turtle]

Ok where's misc mate

[buoyant canopy]

dms

[still sorrel]

naw, but fr, why is the squad ai so batshit dumb

im playing port, and i call my squad to move and clear

Half of them go stack up

The other half go to that utlity/office little building on the other side of tbe map

and then theres just ai not responding at all

hurr durr mf. They definitely rode the short bus to school

[delicate parcel]

my personal favorite is when you tell them to go flash and clear something and two guys go in while the other two guys wait at the door, flashbang the guys that went in, and then go in themselves

[still sorrel]

Ive had my shield just go in solo while the rest stand by the door

[stone bay]

honestly i dont think its fair to call them AI

[still sorrel]

bs

[stone bay]

theyre kinda just npcs lol

[delicate parcel]

at this point i'm honestly just having them cover once i load in and clearing maps solo

[stone bay]

i use quantum's mod to remove swat AI and just solo missions

[delicate parcel]

i do like having them for the traits

but they can sit outside and then come pick up guns for me once i'm done with the contacts

[stone bay]

valid

cleanup crew

[delicate parcel]

it's like the swat team equivalent of when you have someone help you cook but don't trust them to do anything but measure out ingredients

[fervent gale]

Are the standard black Shirts and Pants worn by LSPD SWAT Crye?

[static relic]

I found the priest in MP 🐟

[still sorrel]

i hate this shitty ass ai. Thank you very much for clearing that room, oh and im dead

[umbral oar]

[ivory kiln]

you guys got any cool modded guns

i wanna try some

[ivory kiln]

thank youu

[next olive]

anyone know any workarounds to the AI spawning with pistols slide-locked in the holster

[shy tulip]

Pistols what where

[weak smelt]

mindjot is the worst map tell me otherwise

[amber dock]

Relapse: allow me to introduce myself

It was more fun before, since the Raid gamemode cut the hospital down to one building, which is manageable size. After removal of game modes, it’s stuck at 6 floors, which is way too much

[weak smelt]

they removed game modes?

i just redownloaded the game for the first time in like a year

n ive been screwing around in the commander mode

[next olive]

#🎨ron-screenshots-and-art

[wraith basin]

I agree on this one as well. Raid was such a perfect mode for it.

[fleet talon]

Anyone have that freaking weapon google drive thing for all the damages and stuff??

[next olive]

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1d89lpFDA9lo_v13iBlnhtuA6DvuUnKfPaeo0d4RBGJ4/edit#gid=1684145677

[fleet talon]

Thanks

[lyric hedge]

Sins of the father

I love it, but I freaking hate traps

[half crescent]

sins best map

[umbral oar]

i think farm is probably the worst

visibility absolutely stinks

[half crescent]

nuke greased palms (post office)

[umbral oar]

definitely that if they had stronger weapons

[delicate parcel]

farm is actually one of my favorites

but specifically when running it with a shotgun

[frail quartz]

Greased Palms actually isn't too much of an issue for me, I always have my team pick off people from the outside and the conveyer area itself is always the place I clear last, so by the time I get to that part of the map there generally isn't many people left

[wraith basin]

Honestly, game doesnt really have bad maps, but Relapse is just so boring to play through.

[delicate parcel]

i used to hate the pepperball gun but it's kind of warming up to me

like, instead of having to expose myself to some dude i know is in a doorway i can just gas him out from around the corner without wasting a grenade

[delicate parcel]

this thing is actually great

[weak smelt]

im gonna just mag dump a mf with pepperballs

[delicate parcel]

it's fun as hell. i just ran brisa and got four guys from the start by spraying down corners

[low lichen]

Did they remove the "no officers down"/"no officers injured" thing

[frail quartz]

WYM? That's still something you earn points for

[low lichen]

was it injured or downed?

I know I've not gotten it for officers downed, I think we just had a run where nobody was injured and didn't get it

[frail quartz]

Injuries aren't a factor in the end score anymore

[low lichen]

Yeah we just completed it with nobody downed and that didn't show up on the score screen

[copper cypress]

I encountered a civilian on level 3 who tried to punch me. If I just killed him would that trigger the unauthorized use of deadly force?

Suppose he actually punched me. Although I managed to use melee to get him to submit lol

[delicate parcel]

i dunno. you can test it with one lady on valley of the dolls who will punch you most of the time if you get too close

to be completely honest, i'd rather have the six shot pepperball pistol as a sidearm than the pepperball gun categorized as an smg in ready or not

[umbral oar]

pepper pistol would be nuts

[dapper hare]

this is gonna be hell but i think im going to attempt a iron man max suspect run. pray for my sanity lmao

[copper moon]

is anyone else lagging when looking at daniella voll in valley of dolls

[umbral oar]

yeah, it’s her hair

[copper moon]

wack

[delicate parcel]

greased palms can actually suck my entire ass, cheek to cheek

[waxen grove]

Yo cant belive its been 6 Months and still no updates.

cant wait for the next 6 months without bug fixes

[hexed leaf]

they're working on it bro. Should they be more transparent though? Absolutely.

[waxen grove]

Dont forget adam . . .

1 year without updates, thats voids trackrecord so far

Void hasnt changed face and attempted to try anything different they are keeping us in the dark while making us wait on bug fixes. I give zero fucks about dlc 1 i just want my bug fixes man

[hexed leaf]

Completely understandable. They should prioritize making the base game solid, and THEN start working on additional content

[waxen grove]

the price of this game is a total ripoff as it is.

[soft narwhal]

The last bug fix update was in March, idk where you're getting 6 months from.

We've already gotten more out of them atleast now than we did with Adam. After Adam we had no clue what was going on except from an interview that they never commented on regarding 1.0 release before end of year 2023. I'm not saying it's great or better but definitely atleast we got some sort of info on whats coming now lol

Atleast now we have a deadline to keep track of should they not meet it or decide to delay it of Spring 2024. Which they've announced is coming with a base game update also. Not just DLC.

Then there was the dark ages of 2020

[hexed leaf]

Im guessing the reason they've halted on doing bug fixes since March is because they're working on the 1.1 update and the Home Invasion release and wanting to make sure they get released on time (at least Im hoping thats the case)

[soft narwhal]

My assumption is cause they've made it known before that working multiple branches is a pain. So they're just sticking with one branch with all of it rather than having multiple different ones with different builds and etc

[waxen grove]

1.0.4 was a sorry excuse of a bug fix. i would not be saying that if it was not the last update we have gotten since

[soft narwhal]

The last bug fix was actually pretty important

There was so many rtx 4000 series users who could straight up not play the game cause of the bug.

[waxen grove]

while not fixing the performance issues with the newer graphics cards

i thought 1.0.4 was the holy grail before i discovered nothing changed with preformance

[soft narwhal]

Yeah the performance aspect is hard to pin down since some people with newer and modern stuff are getting expected performance, meanwhile others aren't.

And some with lesser specs are getting better performance with those who aren't getting good performance on better specs.

I'm on a 4070, ryzen 9 7900x, and I'm getting 120fps constantly on all ultra settings at 1440p.

Before I've been on a rtx 3060, and 2060 and the game had always ran smoothly for me without issue, so it's hard to pin down, but there's definitely some more optimization that could be done

[shy tulip]

Nvidia stock moment

[waxen grove]

5600x 3070, im lucky to break 60 after 1.0

it didn't run well before 1.0 but after 1.0 its been a struggle to get a stable framerate fullstop

[molten sun]

Hey, i was wondering if shooting first and asking questions later with the pepperball guns count as unauthorized use of force?

[jaunty knoll]

Non lethal is not as long as you dont kill them i think

or their hands are up

[molten sun]

Thanks, doing an ironman run going for all S tiers and sometimes the pepperball gun takes more than a few shots to bring them down

so i wanted to know if i could shoot before they unload on me

[jaunty knoll]

Yeah ofc

Gl too

[jolly verge]

you need only 4 hits to stun suspects, but i really recommend shoot near their legs instead directly at them, it's will create pepper smoke, which working same as cs gas, and with pacifier trait it's will make suspect immediately surrender

[molten sun]

oh interesting, i always went for the head with them since i assumed the gas exploding directly into their nose would be more effective

[jolly verge]

does not matter where you hit with pepperball, it's always 4 hits to stun or 3-4 to create a smoke

you also should grind 2 negotiators, it's will make your S runs far easier

[molten sun]

Thank you

[fossil palm]

finally got the best badge
#🎨ron-screenshots-and-art message

[sleek scaffold]

Türk oyuncu var mı?

[buoyant canopy]

Man I hate Rust Belt, I'm just running in circles trying to find the last suspects

[fossil palm]

have you used 'search and secure' ?

[buoyant canopy]

Yep, the issue is that my operatives don't go searching and securing but instead keep following me

Finally bro, got a B and the last suspect was on the surface

[fossil palm]

nice

[buoyant canopy]

On the bad side, every single one of my 4 operatives went from Content to Crisis-

[fossil palm]

haha

[buoyant canopy]

All resigned lmfao

Welp, don't have to waste therapy space for em

[fossil palm]

noooo

[buoyant canopy]

Damn, our operatives have a 6th sense. They shoot a suspect down and can immediately tell if he's breathing or not without even approaching

[stone bay]

Guys which weapons do i need and what do i have to do to get S+ tier in a mission?

[buoyant canopy]

I find the MCX good for primary, I haven't tested a lot of other guns though

[stone bay]

That weapon sounds good but if im not wrong if we wanna get S tier we dont kill anybody even suspects

[buoyant canopy]

Think so

Idk tho

[stone bay]

Ehh i'll go non-lethal and try my best

I really wanna get that shirt on amos voll mission

[buoyant canopy]

Tbh, the biggest issue isn't the suspects but your team

They don't know what non-lethal means

[stone bay]

Yeah but good thing i can just go online and make myself a lobby since it doesn't have AI's

[buoyant canopy]

Mm

Or you can order your team to hold on spawn

[stone bay]

That'll be too risky suspects keep moving and they might kill eachother

[buoyant canopy]

True

[jolly verge]

you want to S all maps?

[stone bay]

Oh damn this game doesnt have taser as a secondary

[buoyant canopy]

I mean I could lock them in a room with door wedges lmao

[stone bay]

I would love to but thats kind of.. impossible

[stone bay]

LOL true

[buoyant canopy]

Equip ur secondary and then press 2 again

[jolly verge]

you gotta do it in commander mode then, tratis will make it easy

[stone bay]

Is it not possible for us to get a personal score in multiplayer by ourselves tho

I got no mods downloaded

[stone bay]

Oh thank you

[buoyant canopy]

About mods, do they affect your achievements or score in any way?

[stone bay]

Yes if you download mods your personal score wont count

[buoyant canopy]

Btw beanbag shotgun is a non-lethal primary

[stone bay]

I keep my mods in a specific folder then i put it back in when i wanna mess around

[buoyant canopy]

Alr ty

[stone bay]

Yupp

[jolly verge]

nope, you just get modded text but it's does nothing

[jolly verge]

you can S in multiplayer but it's won't count to achievements

[stone bay]

oh Shoot

[buoyant canopy]

Y'all does this game have any sort of armor / cover for hands & arms?

[jolly verge]

nope, only torso and head

[buoyant canopy]

sad

[stone bay]

You can get heavy armor if u wanna maximize ur cover

[buoyant canopy]

Imagine the amount of surgeries the operatives need on their damn arms-

[edgy linden]

I mean even with arm armour it prob wouldn't be typically stop from bruising or broken bones

Or even be effective likely against proper rifles or lmgs

Or even some small arms depending on caliber

[buoyant canopy]

Mm but like is there anything left if there's a ton of bullets hit on every mission

[jolly verge]

you already get only 0.3x damage to your limbs, which is equals to steel plate reduction

from all suspects guns

and this is after the max damage cap, so usually you taking only 70 x 0.3 = 21 damage

[edgy linden]

I just use a shield cause then you take no damage most the time standing still and not aiming.

And using a flashlight as a rough reticle to aim is useful on all maps

[tawdry phoenix]

d

[floral bramble]

does anyone else get crazy audio issues when using the less lethal shotgun?

[half oyster]

i wish i could answer that but i can't use the beanbag since i'm too lethal with it, aka i am too accurate to use it

[floral bramble]

well aim for the chest then

[half oyster]

it's harder than it may seem for me

[floral bramble]

well that's a skill issue then

and not in the HAHA skill issue way

[steady linden]

Im gonna solo relapse with 12 cans of pepper spray

[stone bay]

I wish you luck with that endeavor

Also why the fuck is split-stacking the default formation? It’s terrible for breaching doors.

[steady linden]

I am in desperate need of therapy After what I have went through.

[fervent terrace]

dude vally of the dolls is some nasty map

like legit some dark things are going on this map

[sharp fox]

very nasty, i keep getting shot at through the windows

[edgy linden]

Yeah, in general that's why I like the game, it don't hold back on the reality of the world.

[fervent terrace]

yhea i a mean the enviormentel story telling is so good

btw port hoken is also very disturbing

[sharp fox]

port hoken is booooring

why do they send 5 officers to clear a section of a port

😔😔

[ivory kiln]

no funds?🤨

[umbral oar]

about port

has anyone noticed the audio inside the gigantic warehouse is fricked

[fervent terrace]

ye

[ivory kiln]

why is the LSPD so undermanned,where are all the other SWAT officers

did they die or leave?

[umbral oar]

they are having therapy

[stone bay]

On leave, retired, left for less dangerous jobs, dead, or even just responding to other events.

[ivory kiln]

understandable

[stone bay]

Los Suenos is a literal dystopia.

[ivory kiln]

i too would leave if i had to deal with crackheads on par with john wick

this also makes me wonder what judge and d-platoon is thinking

do they just not care

or is the LSPD holding them against their will

due to the manpower shortage

I wouldn't be surprised if the high command is that corrupt

[stone bay]

Do you folks find yourself running out of ammo much? I tend to run low on ammo since I'm a proponent of the "shoot them till they drop" method.

[ivory kiln]

not really

i tend to shoot them once or twice

but if you wanna carry more equipment,download gunfighter

[stone bay]

I have gunfighter.

I carry nine mags.

[ivory kiln]

god damn

You gotta learn how to conserve ammo

[umbral oar]

2 bullets drop them no?

[ivory kiln]

At most i use up to 3 mags

[ivory kiln]

pretty much

maybe a third one is needed,but most of the time they drop after 2-3 shots

[stone bay]

I've had moments where I double-tap a guy and he doesn't die, so I've taken to just shooting them until they hit the ground.

[ivory kiln]

Waste of ammo

2-3 bullets center mass will drop them

you can double tap them in the head after

or zip em up

[stone bay]

As I have stated, I have shot people 2-3 times in the chest, and had them not die.

[ivory kiln]

It happens often

sometimes you need more than 2-3 bullets

Suspects for me go down easily

[stone bay]

Yes. That's why I tend to shoot them around six times.

[ivory kiln]

I never have such issues

Yikes

What gun do you main

I tend to main the MCX LVAW

Chambered in 300. BLK AP

[stone bay]

ARWC. 5.56.

Well, not quite, I run the BCM Scorch Carbine, which replaces the ARWC, don't know if it changes anything.

[ivory kiln]

not much

[umbral oar]

jhp?

[ivory kiln]

I think so

[stone bay]

AP.

[ivory kiln]

Well tbh suspects did feel tanky when i mained the HK416 even with AP

But tell me is there any drastic difference when facing off against an armored vs an unarmored suspect

[stone bay]

I mean depending on what you're using, yes, obviously.

[ivory kiln]

Idk what else to say

Maybe use a gun with chambered in something bigger than 5.56

Since 300. BLK is quite at dropping suspects

[stone bay]

I refuse to. Just wondering if anyone else had similar experiences with ammo, it's not a major problem.

[ivory kiln]

I did use to main the 416 and suspects did feel tanky

Ever since i switched to MCX LVAW i never had such problems

You know what i noticed, your guys will not tie up suspects pretending to be dead, they'll just keep yelling for compliance instead of zipping them up

[native rune]

Impeccable by design

[native rune]

And yeah next to 300. BLK and the SA58’there’s like no reason to ever use the 5.56 rifles by comparison alone.

[ivory kiln]

Yeh

When it comes to 300. BLK and SA58 i prefer the former as it has 10 more rounds

[edgy linden]

Or the baby ak

That also packs a punch and is better for closer range vs the SA

[crude prism]

Truth is that the rifles practically identical, spare for the SA-58 which can 1 tap sometimes

[stone bay]

we love different calibers with the same exact damage values

[crude prism]

it bothers me to no end

and I can literally whip up a better system in a few hours by just expanding it a little

[stone bay]

👀

64+ damage curves go brrr

😩

[crude prism]

Based, but impractical for vanilla

[stone bay]

yeah but vanilla kinda boring 😛

at the very least get the visceral blood mod so the blood doesnt look like water mixed with red40

[crude prism]

month 19 of multiple hollow point ammo types having 0% bleed chance

month 4 of all* damage calculation on players being broken

month 19 of scopes being misaligned

month 19 of canted aiming being broken

lip sync soonTM

[stone bay]

😔

month 24 of 7.62 nato being unable to penetrate a 2004 sedan

[lost inlet]

[frail quartz]

once again, does it really matter what order they do things in if the update's gonna be released at the same time anyways?

[stone bay]

yes because im not sure it will

[crude prism]

game breaking bug for 4 months

yeah but they were never gonna patch it before the [arbitary date of DLC1] anyways

[frail quartz]

Yeah, fair enough

[frail quartz]

I mean, it's either they do it in the order of lipsync -> everything else or everything else -> lipsync, they just went with the former so they could get the easier stuff out of the way first

I do have to agree that the repaking isn't really a good excuse to not release such major bugfixes

[crude prism]

no you see by obscuring how the game works from the general public, nobody can tell it's broken

you literally have to dig through memory with like cheat engine in order to find the broken damage calc

[stone bay]

why does it take 6+ months to drop a single bugfix

[frail quartz]

Big brain devs, it isn't broken if players don't know how it's supposed to work

[frail quartz]

Something about players having to repak all the game files when an update releases and they don't want to slightly inconvenience players for substantial bug fixes

[crude prism]

when damage fix comes, players will feel the game suddenly got multiple times harder, and they'll be right

because they've been mislead for MONTHS about the intended behavior, same as the headshot damage fix

[frail quartz]

I'd describe this a certified VOID MOMENT™

[crude prism]

[stone bay]

i just want to see some new content

gimme new guns

[crude prism]

we fixed the subtitles after 6 months

[stone bay]

oh great a reason to re download

[crude prism]

[alpine steeple]

Preacher still preaching?

Someone turn him into a voice pack or something

[frail quartz]

"God forgives, I don't."

[edgy linden]

We fixed 2 crashes in 6 months

[lilac warren]

Are mods worth getting for this game? I just started playing

[umbral oar]

god damn easter bunny

tooth fairy… christmas tree… thing

[lilac warren]

The who the what now

[umbral oar]

mods are cool man!

unless you use sniper or not

[lilac warren]

Oh great rispyif of the ron mod community, inform me of your wisdom because I don’t understand

[umbral oar]

i have no wisdom for you

[lilac warren]

😭

[brisk gull]

ty so much, have a nice day

[umbral oar]

so when is gay or not happening

[soft narwhal]

Hey, could you send me a DM with this info. Such as what's actually broken and how to see it and screenshots of it being broken or if you have a link to where any of the above can be shown.

[dry badge]

i wanna do the "the hermit" achievment, but how dfo you backup savefiles?

[umbral oar]

i personally cheesed with alt f4. i think a lot of people did that actually

[dry badge]

very funny

[umbral oar]

what

you alt f4 when one of your mates die

[dry badge]

and that works?

[umbral oar]

it won’t count as them dying and you can restart the mission

[stone bay]

Yes, absolutely.

[lilac warren]

I tried to do multiplayer but couldn’t find any lobbies. Is this because I don’t have mods or is it region?

Also, what mods should I get?

[crude prism]

#1233563257130848358 message for starters this is WHY it happens, if you want footage of me using cheat engine to look at memory and demonstrate, that'll take a bit

[soft narwhal]

If you could yes, please. You can send it privately and blur out anything non essential

[stone bay]

Your first download should be an AI mod, unless you like getting shot through cracks. I would recommend one of these three, as these are the ones I’ve tried:

https://www.nexusmods.com/readyornot/mods/3169

https://www.nexusmods.com/readyornot/mods/797

https://www.nexusmods.com/readyornot/mods/2169

[lilac warren]

Thank you!

Also, I’ve even having trouble with AI not spawning in at the beginning of the game which caused me to sit in the game for much longer than I should be

[dry badge]

for the hermit achievment, what happenes when I die?

[jolly verge]

your save file will be deleted

[crystal vector]

man this game is so close but wtf is the issue with the AI fixes & obvs the DLC announcement isnt looking great wen the base game isnt right - get it tf together - over & out of ur ahse

[obtuse field]

I find it comical that they even plan on releasing DLC at all

the game still feels like it's in a beta or alpha

[urban walrus]

It's not like they aren't gonna update the game itself when the DLC is out

[obtuse field]

game still needs more work, way too early to release DLC

[stone bay]

guys my pc has all requirements for Ready or Not and its good but i keep having drops in my game like a split second freeze

How do i fix this shi its getting so annoying

does someone have a fix for disconneting to host when Im playing with a friend. If I host, hes dropping, If he hosts, I´m dropping, never experience something similar in any other games. Internet connections stable and very good.

[urban walrus]

Making maps and guns is way faster than fixing the AI and other systems. That's why DLC 1 is coming already

[obtuse field]

Then don't you think "AI and other systems" should've been higher priority?

[urban walrus]

What are the map designers or modelers are gonna do, start to learn coding to fix the AI instead of keep doing things that they are good at?

Also those people are being paid monthly and they aren't gonna sit around and do nothing

[obtuse field]

What are you on about?

[urban walrus]

They are focusing on fixing the game but they are also doing other things

[obtuse field]

The first bit of what you said should have been done before doing a full release tbh

[still sorrel]

If I complete a mission in a friends only server, will I get the achievements/cosmetics?

[lofty notch]

so im doing a less leathal permadeath run, and im on rust belt right now. In the informant call he says that the tunnel wont be trapped due to the amount of foot traffic, but im regularly running into frag and flash traps. is the informant call not supposed to be accurate?

[lofty notch]

i believe so

[stone bay]

you get cosmetics, but not achievements

at least not all of them

[urban walrus]

Well, the full release is most likely a business decision made by the higher-ups (likely to satisfy the investors) since they are indie and have no deadlines that are set by a publisher. The devs didn't want to release the game in this state but orders are orders.

[obtuse field]

Yeah that could be why, but that's something we won't ever know so it doesn't matter if we think that's why or not

[stone bay]

Do the Suspects on Mindjot wear gas masks?

also, whats the best way to clear Mindjot on Ironmanmode + S Rank

[delicate parcel]

i don't believe they wear gas masks

[sharp geyser]

wedge all the side exits, then go to the roof and start clearing form there

oh and bring gas

[wraith basin]

Wedge the MVP

[stone bay]

whats the mvp?

Why in hell don’t any of the rifles have a burst-fire setting?

[sharp geyser]

iirc none of them have burst fire irl, only a handful of SMGs

[lofty notch]

i used a bean bag shotgun and my team used pepperball guns. it worked out well for me. id also use a stinger gl to not heavily rely on people not using gas masks

[vocal quest]

anyway i can change Judge's voice to the original from before 1.0

[umbral oar]

there’s a folder called SWATJudgeLegacy in the VO folder, it’s a matter of renaming it

but maybe backup the current judge folder

[stone bay]

This. Always back up files if you’re messing with voicelines.

[umbral oar]

i did this with the legacy toc lines it was pretty cool

[stone bay]

Why is it that the only issues I run into installing voice replacers is with TOC?

Every other time it’s worked.

[vocal quest]

Any way i can remove this camo mod i installed forever ago that's fused into my game? I checked the mods I have and it was uninstalled, but still in the game. I even tried uninstalling the game and re installing it, that didn't work so now I just have some camo clothes I don't want that I can't remove, it's like it's fused within my game. Any help please?

[half crescent]

may help more for you to post that here as well https://discord.com/channels/310075021882294272/922350557031702608

[vocal quest]

okay thank you

[trail peak]

So I finished Elephant (crazy mission, I swear those kids played too much call of duty with their 360 no scopes) and 3 of my officers went down. I was devistated, but when I finished the mission and went to the HQ 2 were sent to therapy and one is labeled incapacitated for 3 missions. Are they supposed to be dead or am I extremely lucky?

[fresh oxide]

@lucid elk why are here?

[safe cliff]

did you get it from nexus or mod.io

[fiery flame]

I found a man with a bulletproof head

He took 1 556 round to the forehead and only got incapacitated

No helmet btw

[lucid elk]

Because I'm awake!!!!

[stone bay]

I just had to reinstall my game, and probably all of my mods.

[stone bay]

Didn’t have to reinstall my mods thankfully. Otherwise that would’ve taken at least another hour.

[vocal quest]

I forgot but if there's two different methods I'd love to hear them

[fresh oxide]

🪨

[stone bay]

Thanks be to God I’ve finally fixed the voice issues. I’m abstaining from re-downloading the one I was using earlier until it’s complete.

[ivory kiln]

You guys ever had an s-vest willingly surrender

I had that happen to me a few months ago

[stone bay]

I've only ever had that happen when s-vests aren't supposed to spawn. I've had two on Greased Palms in the last six months.

[ivory kiln]

That's interesting

Never had such thing happen to me

[humble mauve]

happens if you are too close to them

need to back off of them a bit

[ivory kiln]

Thing is one of my AI teammates yelled for compliance and he surrendered

And there was quite a distance

My teammate was in the entrance to the dance floor,the s-vest was on the dance floor

So i must've had some luck

[unique lava]

i swear they surrendered from a shot to the knee once

[ivory kiln]

Funny

[unique lava]

maybe a hollow point shattering their kneecaps changed their minds

[ivory kiln]

All it took was someone yelling for compliance to surrender

Surprised he could stand

[unique lava]

only once did brixley surrender to me when i yelled for compliance

only for me to get decked in the head by bolton goons because i didnt wedge his office door

[ivory kiln]

Lmao

[sharp fox]

i think a flashbang and a bullet to his hip convinced him to surrender for me

[delicate parcel]

pepperball magdump

i just unlocked the santa muerte rosary beads because my dumb ass just pieced together using door wedges on rust belt is probably a good idea

[stone bay]

how do i unlock all the accessories

n stuff

[delicate parcel]

if you mouse over them in the customization menu it'll tell you the requirements. most of the time it's "get [grade] on [mission]"

the one i just did was "get A+ on rust belt"

[stone bay]

thanks @delicate parcel

[delicate parcel]

yeah no problem. looking at tattoos is also a good way to see which missions you still need to S rank if you plan on going that route

[stone bay]

alr

[delicate parcel]

man, i'm up to neon tomb on this ironman run. usually i screw something up on like, mission four

wedges are a godsend

especially on missions with hallways. i section it out so that i have complete control of the hallways and then just go room by room

now i just need to figure out the bottom floor of valley of the dolls, the conveyor area of greased palms, and the dance floor in neon tomb

[copper cypress]

Are there ways to reduce suspect stress?

[ivory kiln]

idk really

[jolly verge]

pretty sure there is no way to do it, their stress will always raise no matter what you doing

[copper cypress]

QQ

[stone bay]

What level(s) will you never touch again after beating them?

[native rune]

None of them but Ridgeline is easily the most boring, arguably not worth the loading time to hop in

[ivory kiln]

carriers of the vine

[half crescent]

Eh I argue gas station, the suspects are lame while having lots of civs and it’s a small, less structured map, being a gas station. Also it has an annoying parimeter with glass windows. I’d rather start rifling through hallways or staircases.

If you want to do a patrol cop load out though, that map would be a good fit.

[copper cypress]

Do body armors worn by civilians have any actual protective effect?

[jolly verge]

only map that have armored civilians is carriers of the vine, they wear L2 armor

[steady linden]

What happens if I pepper spray a civilian for 20 seconds?

[copper cypress]

Nothing happened

[copper cypress]

Does this mean they won't die as quickly if I hit them with 9mm ammo?

[jolly verge]

yeap

works same as on suspects

[jolly verge]

you will run out of spray?

[steady linden]

Unfortunate

[karmic bramble]

Greased Palms

[thick wing]

yea fuck that

[ivory kiln]

yall got any good all black kit mods

[stone bay]

There’s this: https://www.nexusmods.com/readyornot/mods/981

[fossil palm]

Carriers of the Vine
Sins of the farther

[ivory kiln]

cool

How much does voll pay his security guards to keep quiet

10 million?

15 mil?

Cuz they really are more than willing to die for him

[stone bay]

Check this out: https://old.reddit.com/r/ReadyOrNotGame/comments/199x327/bolton_security_might_not_be_the_bad_guys/

[ivory kiln]

Unsurprising

LS is a hellscape

But these guys know they're being held hostage and are only doing it to put food on the table and yet their first course of action is to shoot SWAT officers on sight

This game could be better if there was different AI for all levels

[vocal iron]

Probably something that a lot of people complain about, but how tf do people look at RoN as a game and think "yeah, I don't need a mic for this"

[twin python]

hell yeah

[stone bay]

u dont rlly need it

u dont need any talking at all

[vocal iron]

I disagree

[umbral oar]

i communicate via rapid flashlight flicking and vigorous head shakes

[vocal iron]

Haha fairs

[stone bay]

exactly

or if u got some good randoms they js stick to the briefing u got from the tablet thing and basically everyone goes tg without any talking needed

[vocal iron]

Have they nerfed the game?

[manic walrus]

Not really nerfed but learn to understand like how the physics and AI works and it'll go well

Although the AI is powerful

[vocal iron]

Nah I mean, i've never heard the game described as easy before. Unless they just aren't going for S's

[manic walrus]

Well, my biggest pain was greased palms on S rank

That's true though they miss a lot of shots

[vocal iron]

Yeah they've defo nerfed that cus they when I last played they had faster than light reactions and snapped on like a mofo

[manic walrus]

But if they get a lucky shot it just insta kills you

[manic walrus]

They have lightning speed reflexes

But you gotta be faster

[shy tulip]

RoN players try not to use hyperbole challenge (Impossible)

[manic walrus]

Unauthorized use of force incoming

I like beanbag shotgun

It smacks

[vocal iron]

Thats what I mean bro you gotta look for the "but"

[manic walrus]

That is true

So you just shoot again

[vocal iron]

The game is really easy if you just shoot everything infront of you

[manic walrus]

Yeaaaaa, it is

But when S rank comes

Elephant map flashbacks

[vocal iron]

Okay so bro doesnt need to communicate cus he does it in singleplayer, now it's all adding up xd

[manic walrus]

My bot teammates sometimes just go out into open fire

I have no one to play with. My friends play Roblox

[vocal iron]

maybe if they spoke they'd be less brainless?

Atleast u can scream at them, but you cant cus u dont have a mic

[manic walrus]

relatable

Interesting

That's,

Bro the aim is on the mic instead of the game xd

bruhhhh

fair

that fly in your ear:

"alright guys, let's breach this door an-"
heavy intense breathing noises

I should try a studio mic on cs2

Heh

I mean. Since I am ass on that game

"A mic broke someones eardrums" lol

But what is it with always hearing russians screaming in cs

And, why always russians

No offense

Fair

Like me

Bro cs should have a blyat counter

I hear more blyat than rounds fired

They are everywhere

Russia National Game

CS training in schools

anyways I should hop on ron

have fun everyone

[fossil palm]

wooooooooooooooooooooooo 121 hours synced into this game

and who else has got the "way of west" badge

[hexed mirage]

Is it just me or hostiles take a lot more bullets to take down in multiplayer?

[hexed mirage]

Here

[fossil palm]

like it's one bullet from arrest to death

[hexed mirage]

Tru

[fossil palm]

@hexed mirage you've done ironman mode?

[hexed mirage]

Yeah

took a few tries but made it

[fossil palm]

what did you think of it?

[hexed mirage]

FUCK POSTAL

made me restart ironman mode 3 times

[stone bay]

💯

[fossil palm]

oh I'm going to be the same

[stone bay]

am i the only one that likes postal

[fossil palm]

I'm leaving it till last in my method of completing all

First, practice mode then commander, last ironman mode

[fossil palm]

I like the design but the conveyor belts are difficult to maneuver around

[hexed mirage]

That's fair, a lot smarter than restarting ironman mode thrice

[fossil palm]

yk getting the practice in before getting into the deep end. just my opinion

[hexed mirage]

Yeah

[fossil palm]

I don't have any friends to do the multi player 😕😞

[hexed mirage]

I have a physics exam tomorrow at 9 so I can't play w u unfortunately, r n I'm procrastinating XD

BUT I'll add u on steam and we can play tomorrow after my physics exam

[fossil palm]

it's okay the ai is just fine

[hexed mirage]

Alright m8

[fossil palm]

thanks tho

[median shadow]

when does a new patch go live that includes the AI changes from the dev blog?

[vocal quest]

Anyone else just getting random ass crahses for no reason? just did on valley of the dolls when I was commanding my team to fall in behind me

[umbral oar]

i would run a chunkier character if he existed fr

[tall rapids]

@safe cliff i forgort ONE GUN

[safe cliff]

how about i kill you

[tall rapids]

and lost my S rank

[tall rapids]

3:

[safe cliff]

sorry that was my cat

[tall rapids]

[stone bay]

How do I re-enable replays?

[limpid cypress]

i feel like you can just google this

i dont actually know though

yeah @stone bay its literaly just in the game settings menu

options > gameplay > scroll down to enable replays

[stone bay]

Found it. Thanks.

[umbral oar]

you gotta reenable it every time u start the game tho

[copper cypress]

How many suspects do I need to arrest in Neon Level before SWAT Ai status increases? If at the lowest standard

[jolly verge]

You mean stress?
Killing suspect increases stress by 0.04 - 0.08
Arresting suspect heal stress by 0.08 and 0.03 for civilian

[copper cypress]

Yup

[copper cypress]

Is it reasonable that killing a civilian when a bullet accidentally penetrates a wall during a firefight would not trigger the Kill Me command?

Does the system have a way to determine whether the player did it on purpose😂

[stone stump]

yes

[copper cypress]

!!

[blissful harness]

Are the gloves with chicken patterns based on Helikon Tex gloves?

[muted star]

It's based on pig gloves

[hardy nimbus]

Yes.There are 2 kinds of Chicken patterns gloves. They based on PIG (FDT) Alpha Gloves and Delta Gloves.

And I got a pair of Alpha Gloves for my bike race. They are nice.

[safe seal]

Is there any way of getting the FISA equipment, like the G3's and JPC, if I didn't buy the Supporter Edition?

[jolly verge]

Nope

[next olive]

Sometimes it has turned the SWAT AI hostile and sometimes not, it just depends on whether or not the suspect/civ in question is surrendered or not (in my own experience)

[ivory kiln]

Most of the time no

The kill me command seems to trigger under certain circumstances

[elder void]

Right, so what can we expect for tomorrow's briefing? We're well into summer now and I believe we're suppose to be getting a major update and DLC

[jolly verge]

it's disabled by default even if you see it enabled, known issue since 1.0

[ivory kiln]

yeah it's annoying

i wish there was a mod for it

[stone bay]

“buT sPrInG isNt oVeR yEt”

sro eotech and iron sight
if i had to choose one to use forever then eotech

i like eotech since i can use nvg without them being hard to see

[slow radish]

Does anyone know how to reduce stress on the members

?

[steady linden]

Thats perfect

Oh god I just found an even better Sound effect

The "bomb" from the donetsk children meme

[jolly verge]

arresting suspects/civi reduces officers stress

[slow radish]

Roger that

[sharp geyser]

using non-lethal and arresting suspects alive

[stone bay]

Obviously not counting Twisted Nerve or Port, Sins is one of the darkest maps I’ve ever played.

You can’t see shit

[raven schooner]

is the ARG still part of the game/factored into the story in 1.0? or is it basically abandoned at this point

[stone bay]

The latter

[raven schooner]

[stone bay]

not basically abandoned, is abandoned

[thorny warren]

it kinda sucks having to kill civilians when i dont have time to play hide and seek with remaining civilians and wanna end it quick

like it cancels the "rescue all civilians" objective

[stone bay]

i just always tell them to run to exit when i see them

that way you dont need to wander aimlessly

[fossil wagon]

Is anyone having a problem on the mission "Twisted Nerve" i have gone through all 3 houses and there are no suspect to find there all restrained or dead and it still says there is a suspect even tho there are no more.

[sharp geyser]

that's pretty normal since suspects tend to wander around after they've detected you, just use search and secure and your AI will eventually stumble on them

[fossil wagon]

Okay i have ran this mission 3 times

[frail quartz]

Did you clear the caves?

[fossil wagon]

Yeah i think it was i could 2 mods mods installed that were the same thing just bu differnt people

[fossil palm]

i need help, in multi player loadout i have 8 mags but it only shows 4. however in single play i have all 8 mags available

[delicate parcel]

did you set the loadout in both, or just single-player?

[fossil palm]

yes single player and multi

tried different guns but still the same

its the same for my sidearm

[stone bay]

does anyone know how to get rid of the ugly fucking film grain effect

Low/Medium straight up looks better than Epic

[green plaza]

How can I unlock all of the missions for the practice mode?

[shy tulip]

Play through all the maps on practice or commander

[green plaza]

Is that the only way to do so?

[shy tulip]

Yes, without getting into mods

[wintry herald]

why do the some off the graphics settings reset when i set them!!! ???? its so annoying

[main oracle]

Does anyone know if a mission editor for RoN is on any roadmap? Also any ETA on a new update?

[native rune]

For your second question, “Spring”

[stone bay]

I don’t know as far as the mission editor goes. And I just got an update of some sort this morning.

[native rune]

That’s steam sync

[stone bay]

👍

[jolly light]

I've been stuck on Spider for so long

[heady roost]

Which one's that again?

Oh yeah

can anyone help me in modding chat please and thanks

[waxen grove]

Are we getting a newsletter tomorrow or is it postponed again

[sharp fox]

prob postponed

lets be real

they already missed the last one

[stone bay]

deadlines arent real they cant hurt you

[jolly verge]

%LocalAppData%\ReadyOrNot\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor open engine.ini and paste this under bottom

ty

[stone bay]

Is gear all subjective? Stat wise are they all the same

[stone stump]

smgs suck, most rifles suck

use either ARWC, G36C, LVAR, MCX, F90 or ARN-180

[fervent zealot]

Is it just me that pretends to do a holdout like you see in irl swat footage where they try getting the suspect out peacefully for a little while before moving in?

[brave scroll]

yes

usually when you first spawn the TOC will say "negotiations have failed" so why on earth would you sit outside for 2 working days

[fervent zealot]

would be weird that our team just arrived and immediately goes in

if it isnt an active shooter

[hexed leaf]

low-key wish this could be kind of implemented, like if you yell at them through the door enough times, there'd be a tiny chance they'd surrender without having you even go inside

[fervent zealot]

maybe like a small minigame when your team arrives, then toc gives the team the go ahead for entry

like a time skip if the minigame failed

[stone bay]

did they add stunning explosives on doors?? I'm playing sins of the father and I've opened 2 doors, heard the grenade sound with real explosives, but its rly tiny and does no dmg

[wraith basin]

Yeah they are stuns.

[stone bay]

when did they add those?

or am I js rly that blind

[wraith basin]

I think they always had them on that map, haha

[stone bay]

ig I only did that map once but srsly?

[hexed leaf]

yes seriously

[sharp fox]

im pretty sure theres a mix of actual grenades and flash grenades on sins of the father

last time i played atleast

[open harness]

what texture quality should I be using with 4GBs of VRAM

I dont mind a little downgrade in the graphics but it's all just blurry PS1 gameplay now for me

[jolly verge]

texture quality does not really change it quality, it's supposed to change poolsize and anisotropic filter
what pc specs exactly you have?

[warm falcon]

does anyone know what map is this? #🎬ron-clips-and-media message

[hexed leaf]

that's the Wenderly Hills Hotel (barricaded suspects) map. It was a vanilla map that was disabled/removed with the 1.0 release

[warm falcon]

ohhh I thought it was a mod

[warm falcon]

why did they remove it? That map looks cool

[hexed leaf]

I don't know but it made me very sad when I figured it out

[warm falcon]

ikr, devs should bring that map back

thank for the info

make sure you game running on dedicated gpu and not on integrated
you can see in task manager which one is used

[opal holly]

just got another s

and another

[twin python]

They won't affect multiplayer, just make sure the host doesn't have SERVER CHECKSUM on

Yup

[naive marten]

It has just occurred to me that the VKS in game is based on the Byrna Mission 4

[stone bay]

hello guys, any rumor about today's biweekly newsletter?

also, spring is about to end so they should be releasing the 1.1 any time now

[lost inlet]

eh kinda, the toy gun you talking about look exactly like a AR-15 but with orange while the VKS have a more straighter mag

[timber crag]

it sounds cool if we had patches doesnt it?. but its like real life patches and stuff like? sas, fsb, fbi, grom, etc.

it sounds cool

[copper cypress]

Will firing at close range without the use of a suppressor cause greater morale damage to the suspect?

[lost inlet]

nope why?

game not that realistic

[copper cypress]

All right QQ

I just hit a suspect with .300 JHP in Elephant Level twice and he surrendered. (no suppressor used)

But they wouldn't surrender when I used suppressors before.

[lost inlet]

you using jhp?

oh and no suppressor made them more angry, not more scared i think

[naive marten]

it's not a 1:1 but it's loosely based

[lost inlet]

yep

[copper cypress]

more stress?

[lost inlet]

gain stress faster

i don't really care though, if i see a sus bot pointed their gun at me, i am dropping that guy

[copper cypress]

lol

BTW, Hitting a suspect affects morale the same as hitting a wall near the suspect?

[lost inlet]

dont know if hitting near them would affect but they do get affect when they get hit, just very little amount of damage to morale

they would dropped to the ground before they reached the threshold of surrender

like 90% of the time

[copper cypress]

Oh~

[jolly verge]

Dealing damage to suspect using lethal ammo deal 0.125 morale damage (0.1 on lethal obsession)
Shooting near suspect deal 0.025 morale damage (0.001 on relapse and 0 on club/lethal obsession)

[copper cypress]

Got it. Thanks 👍

Wait… 0.001 and 0!? WTF lmao

[jolly verge]

yeah, suspects on relapse, club and lethal obsession don't affect that much from suppression

[copper cypress]

Does the suspect's pressure only affect how quickly they shoot and how likely they are to come to me?

[opal holly]

another s

[copper cypress]

I planned to purposely piss them off so I could beat the level faster🤣

[jolly verge]

im not sure about this, but if they have low morale they will reload their weapons really slow

[copper cypress]

📝

Will ROE change due to different maps? Also sneak up on a relaxed suspect from behind, in Elephant, and the TOC says continue your mission. In the second level, TOC said Watch it! 😅

In the neon nightclub, when SWAT Ai saw me shoot the first suspect without shouting for compliance, he said: Contact Down! Doing the same thing in the spider level I heard: What the hell would you doing??

[obtuse beacon]

Will be there something like a pvp mode in ready or not, like in the closest alpha?

[jaunty pebble]

Man it feels like they stopped developing this game after V1

[stone bay]

thats what mods are for 😉

[opal holly]

real

[jaunty pebble]

Mods can only do so much though.
I want diversity in my gameplay.
Different mission objectives and parameters.
So far its just the same mission but a different look for all of the missions im kinda sick of it

[stone bay]

yeah mods can do that

[jaunty pebble]

Where did hostage rescue and bomb defusal and all those goodies go

[stone bay]

people have been making redux maps

a lot of AI mods also include bomb defusals

[jaunty pebble]

I get it and I have a lot of mods installed but without fresh content and actual updates its very hard to not loose interest in the game

[stone bay]

yeah i get that

[jaunty pebble]

Fuck this modding bot

The story has no depth its literally just mission after mission a p*do or a mass shooter but the victims are either unseen or very bland which makes it extremely difficult to feel empathy to them.
The shooters are also very uninspired with the weirdest motives and the story barely makes sense.
None of the missions actually feel raw or uncensored or that they have some sort of real life inspiration it just feels like censored edgelord swat game with missions made just to bring in headlines to attract more players.

And thing is the general idea and gameplay mechanics are good and they are fun but everything around them feels like its a placeholder

[muted star]

There's like one mod for gas station only

[late isle]

What do you mean by the missions not being uncensored? Also plenty of missions actually have real life inspiration.

[muted star]

Ye

[jaunty pebble]

Missions being censored means that instead of showing brutal reality of the situation they make for a movie like scenario instead.
It doesn't feel real at all.

[stone bay]

i can kinda see that on certain missions

a lot of the AI mods will fix that. for example the active shooters in hospital and club will actually shoot people. it really raises tension when you hear gunshots and then people screaming

[late isle]

I give the game a lot of shit, but I have to give credit where credit is due and I have to ask. Are we playing the same missions?

[jaunty pebble]

The club mission had bodies piled up in the same way the nazis piled up bodies in concentration camps. Like wtf am I supposed to think happened there

[late isle]

A terrorist attack?

[jaunty pebble]

Club shootings are real but its unrealistic to show a pile of 200 people in every other room. Less victims would feel far more real and would represent reality of it much better

Also when people who just saw 9/11 scale of murder are giving ME shit for being there????

[muted star]

wut

[late isle]

What the fuck lmao

[jaunty pebble]

I am referring to the very bad voice acting

[muted star]

Then just say so

[jaunty pebble]

I want realistic scenarios not to see how many bodies the devs can fit in a club map

The club the map is supposedly inspired by had 19 victims. Not 600

[stone bay]

keep in mind Ready or Not is based in a slightly different world, its not supposed to be exactly realistic

[hexed leaf]

I don't mean to sound like I'm whining here, but VOID better release a good newsletter today. Im pretty sure a lot of people will get pissed if they don't

[jaunty pebble]

Slightly is an understatement.
If I am given a team of 5 I want to deal with criminals not an entire brigade of yemenite terrorists tf.

[muted star]

My guy you literally going to solve a terrorist attack with 4 other dudes. I guess you could suspend your disbelief for a sec

[late isle]

They'll just post another one of those "what are you picking for the highest stopping power? Will it be the SA85 or the M4A1 semi shotgun" cringe ass posts

[hexed leaf]

god forbid man

[jaunty pebble]

I literally just said this

[crude prism]

one dude killed 49 people at FL nightclub, their scale for multiple shooters is not "unrealistic"

[stone bay]

theyd be better off just not posting one instead of this lol

[muted star]

Oh shit my b didn't see that as I was writting

[late isle]

💯

[jaunty pebble]

Thats the problem.
I would much rather the mission be hard because I have to save victims from a shooter who is still trying to kill people and is hard to catch and find safely than a mission where I go into a warzone filled with terrorists armed better than me who fo some reason suddenly chose to stop shooting at the civies who remained and only shoot at me and my 5 man team who is armed with nothing but rifles

[jaunty pebble]

49 is believable but 600 is an entire venue

People do run why are they all in a pile at the center

Who put them there

[hexed leaf]

its not even 600 victims in the Neon Club attack

[crude prism]

where are you getting 600 from

[late isle]

Are my messages getting deleted on anyone else's screen too?

[hexed leaf]

its 60 victims

[jaunty pebble]

I didn't count but its for sure not 60

[late isle]

Sure as shit ain't 600 either lmao

[jaunty pebble]

I was exagerating

[hexed leaf]

It says it in a news thing somewhere if I remember correctly

[late isle]

That's where you went wrong, never trust the government

[jaunty pebble]

If it does thats just contradictory to the mission.
There are piles of bodies everywhere in this club and non of them have any sign of life

[hexed leaf]

the news is not the government.
..
or is it? 🤨

[jaunty pebble]

Governments don't lie about victim counts.
It makes it much easier to get a budget when the public knows there were more people killed.

[crude prism]

checkmate... repuberals...

[late isle]

The government controls everything. Even your sexuality. You're actually gonna become gay tomorrow! I heard them talking about it!

[prime wing]

https://tenor.com/view/shrek-shrek-rizz-rizz-gif-11157824601050747846

[jaunty pebble]

Irl the news would cut midway to the terrorists motive and undermine the shooting and effectively reward the attack as news stations often do today.

[crude prism]

spoilers!!!

[stone bay]

a lot of AI mods fix this

[late isle]

I'm just giving him prep time

[jaunty pebble]

If modders can make neccesary changes to the game why can't VOID

[hexed leaf]

you need to remember as well that the Neon Tomb mission is based on the Bataclan theater massacre, where the death count was 138 people.

[stone bay]

youre asking the wrong guy lol

[jaunty pebble]

Fair

[stone bay]

check out astral's AI mod it seems like what youre looking for

[elder void]

🤔it's already 2pm Eastern and still no Briefing

[stone bay]

10usd says there wont be a briefing today

[jaunty pebble]

90* 138 during the entire attack but bataclan was just the main location 90 were killed there and the others were killed in attacks at different locations

[hexed leaf]

yeeeeaaah gettin a little suspicious

[hexed leaf]

even still, 90 people is a huge number

[crude prism]

DLC in under 2 weeks kekw

[stone bay]

gib SDK

[hexed leaf]

allegededly

[stone bay]

we do work for u

[jaunty pebble]

And the bataclan had 1500 attendees. The neon club would never fit that many people.
Most people in a shooting usually manage to escape in neon it seems that they trickshotted everyone within 5 minutes'

And then dragged the corpses to a neat pile for some reason

While leaving some random women alive

[hexed leaf]

those are all hostages

[muted star]

Man tbh that's the least of rons problems

[jaunty pebble]

Yes and it wouldn't even be a problem if they didn't call this a finished product

Its good but not finished.

[shy tulip]

Delayed

News Letter™️

However I suspect everyone will like what the rest of the letter says

[muted star]

sdk mentioned

[stone bay]

sdk 😮

[muted star]

ue5

[shy tulip]

PSO Precaching

[stone bay]

yo this is actually fucking hype

good shit void

[austere merlin]

ue5 is worth the delay

[stone bay]

it is but it is also important to note that no mods will work in the time being

[hexed leaf]

Well that's a little bittersweet

[stone bay]

i just hope someone is able to update UAsset for Unreal 5 cause lots of people have been trying to for quite a while now

[stone bay]

more bitter than sweet for modders cause all that work just got washed away lol

[hexed leaf]

Yep.

[stone bay]

but hey now that theres an incentive behind the community updating the tools thats pretty neat

[muted star]

We get used to that I think

[stone bay]

previously it was relatively easy to just go in and update what you need to for compatibility

but thats not possible since UE5 tools dont exist yet

[muted star]

Yeah it's worst for mappers I guess

[stone bay]

just about everyone. cant model, map, AI config, anything

[hexed leaf]

Welp, time to archive this version of the game lol

[urban abyss]

w dev log

[random forge]

u lot think RoN is gonna drop info during summer gamesfest?

abt the upcoming content update etc. All we did get is a roadmap

[willow kraken]

So it looks like the source code leak came from outsourcing the UE5 port

[random forge]

a bare-bones one

[plucky moth]

Also UE5 basically warrants a PC upgrade

[pliant void]

dont worry about the mods dev guys, there is only about 6 that are any good, ingamemenu, gunfighter2.0, debugcamera, one or two of the AI ones, pretty much other stuff is dog turd, release the UE5! hell yeah!

[amber dock]

bruh

[plucky moth]

Isnt the gunfighter mod working on 3.0?

[pearl shuttle]

more like blandfighter

[shy tulip]

god dayum

[pliant void]

maybe, i dont use it, its basically a cheat mod to make people think they have a backpack full of stuff to make the game easy

[pearl shuttle]

I pointed that out once and got told "just don't use the other slots lol"

[pliant void]

hey look i have 30 wedges, 8 flashes, extra secondary, lets go john wick it

[shy tulip]

The gun movement part is pretty nice though, does make the game a run and gun though

[pearl shuttle]

Yeah I like the short stocking

[shy tulip]

I remember trying it for the first time and felt like I was on cocaine with how fast the player moves

[pearl shuttle]

Wish I could just get that instead
