👮ron-discussion

[sacred temple]

Yeah, that's what I do.

It's just that the AI can't navigate the inside afterwards. They just don't move right and it gets them killed.

[jade apex]

Abusing Gas nades might be the choice then

[sacred temple]

I'm already doing that.

[jade apex]

In Post office you can get shot from all angles basically, its rough

[sacred temple]

I think they just need to rework both the allied and enemy AI.

[errant musk]

Lol my holo dot just turn into pixel when I set dlss into quality

[sacred temple]

The allied AI is dumb as rocks and the enemy AI has insane accuracy. Makes this level suck hard.

[jade apex]

Yeah... You may want to get AI mods or just savescum

[bold sky]

just run shield and .357 for postal and you can get a free clear if you are that annoyed

[sacred temple]

No, because I wouldn't get S-Rank.

If I didn't care about S-Rank, I'd be done already. The only reason I care is because I want S-Rank, otherwise I'd just gun everyone down.

[umbral oar]

i love the chaos of postal

[sacred temple]

I like Postal in concept but the AI is just godawful.

The enemy are gangbangers but shoot like Mossad, and the SWAT AI can't navigate the building properly.

The interior AI pathing is all kinds of broken.

[north hollow]

Does anyone else have their gun go left to right like crazy if you get hit in the left arm?

[rare estuary]

That's the gunfighter mod

[north hollow]

Oh okay thanks

[tacit perch]

real

[sharp lark]

suggestion: more SWAT teammates (AI)

[umbral oar]

A third team would be nice

[noble pasture]

Anything else to ensure my swat AI doesn't die?

[stone bay]

unless you make them bomb defusal juggs then just anything that maxes durab with lower speed is fine

[noble pasture]

Have them clear rooms?

If they have no pistol ammo they wont pull out shields

[stone bay]

if you wanna go for proper tank make them use shields

depending on the map to max durability or survivability shotguns or the SA58 give the best takedown effectiveness

[stone bay]

if you want them to shield at all times divert all ammo and non essentials to pistol

[noble pasture]

3 spare mags for SA58 and rest to pistols?

Juuust in case they use it in between breaches

[stone bay]

that should be fine, make some use shotguns just in case of cqc

[mellow valve]

the average sbr is fine

[noble pasture]

One 1301 shotgun should suffice

[mellow valve]

A headshot shall be enough.

[noble pasture]

True, maybe hand them the LVAW, or ARN-18

300 blk works in sbr's better than average 5.56

[mellow valve]

I have a .50 Beo in my arsenal

Maybe I should use that

[noble pasture]

Officer survival seems okay

Now their stress, how do I keep them from murdering half the map?

[mellow valve]

Don't

Use a permanent solution to bring order to chaos

[noble pasture]

Then what about stress management?

[mellow valve]

Motivate them

[stone bay]

flashbangs or tazers

[noble pasture]

I am thinking to send them to doctor only when they get to crisis?

Can a "Stressed" officer skip "Crisis" and retire right after mission is over?

[stone bay]

i'm not sure..

[jolly verge]

Nope

only if you gain stress or there is no space in therapy

[worn girder]

For Ironman, if I before starting gas station swap out my officers, would I not be able to get the achievement?
Trying to decide if it's worth to keep rolling on ideal stats or if it's better to just swap them out

[jolly verge]

For achievement only matter if any officer was KIA or if they fall down on last mission

[worn girder]

So theoretically I could swap officers and still have it pop?

[jolly verge]

sure, you can also fire them

[worn girder]

Even mid-way through the campagin?

[jolly verge]

yes

[worn girder]

Ah awesome, thanks! (I assume you got it this way?)

[jolly verge]

2 negotiator 1 armorer is the best for iron man

[jolly verge]

I tested it a few times and the only way i did not get achiv is when someone was KIA or was incapacitated on last mission port hokan

[worn girder]

Ah awesome, thanks!

[jolly verge]

For dev watch you need no resignations from duty

[noble pasture]

So they auto go to therapy?

[worn girder]

Ah I see, I don't care about the dev watch, I just need the achievement

[jolly verge]

If it's have space - yes

[noble pasture]

4 officers, 3 spots, so only way for this to get messed up is if they simultaneously hit 100% stress?

[jolly verge]

yeah, you need to be careful with it

3 will be in therapy but 4th will resign after mission

[noble pasture]

Send them to terapy once in stressed? Should take only 1 mission to fix it

I think the idea is:
Anxious - swap out for Content
Stressed - send to Dr Green
Crisis - send to Dr Green
Prioritize crisis over stressed in therapy priority and if no room left leave them on the bench

Sounds good? @jolly verge

[jolly verge]

👍

[dense quest]

Is it true that the suspect ai can see your laser or flashlight and react faster to shoot you?

[jolly verge]

Not for laser and they react to flashlight depending on their current stress

[dense quest]

Late reply but I see. Do you basically have to recreate the map to make it work with ue5?

[dense quest]

Ah ok, I used to hear that running the laser is bad for that reason but I guess it was false

[stone bay]

Mine usually ignore it like it’s nun

[noble pasture]

Whats wrong with Swat AI?

Karlson over here did tours around the Gas Station at every stack up order

[wintry wind]

does anyone know if an officer resigning from the force voids the achievement for completing iron man mode without losing an officer? Or is it only if they die

[jolly verge]

Only if they KIA or just fall down on last mission, only watch requires no resigning

[wintry wind]

huh, interesting

fall down on last mission? how do you mean?

[jolly verge]

If officer down on port hokan you wont get watch, even if he will be incapacitated

[violet verge]

yo my scope is blurry when i put on NVG is that a feature?

[jolly verge]

Yes, when you enable nvg it's turning on depth of field and disable volumetric fog

[jade canopy]

isnt it just bright light being fuzzy with nvg?

[noble pasture]

lost my ironman save

cause of my stupid swat AI keeps breaking down like they are school girls

swat AI killed civies and they got depression? How about they dont aim like the civie isnt there?

[opaque meadow]

Do you ever get to see the trailers rescue civilians and stuff?
I remember it being advertised a while ago in patch notes? But ive never seen it.

[jolly verge]

They appears only in practice mode

[opaque meadow]

whats the logic behind that?

[rare berry]

in commander too but not every missions only when all objectives are clear and on some missions not all

[opaque meadow]

Also is there any way to zoom out with the x4 optic?

[dire vine]

Does nvg help ai to see better? For example when you play on Port Hokan

[jolly verge]

Example? Because i tested all missions before and i did not see more than 4 bots with 250 health, but do on every mission in practice

[jolly verge]

Nope, only with mod

[rare berry]

the first one and streamer mission too for sure i forgot for the others

[jolly verge]

It's does not

[opaque meadow]

thats silly

[dire vine]

[rare berry]

qnd its usually only one guy running from police truck to each hostages one by one

[dire vine]

I got another question. Is there any way to have the ballistic shield guy permanently have the shield equipped? The only way I have found so far is to manually order the guy to equip it

[rare berry]

actually you need to tell him to equip

[jolly verge]

Well they appearing only in practice mode and i do see them when mission starting

[dire vine]

Okay thank you

[rare berry]

really i never noticed the NPC from the beginning of the mission

[jolly verge]

you wont, i have tools for that

that really helps to test game

[raw gale]

Is there any plan to make the old Port, Hotel and Vineyard maps available again ? I like the news ones but I think it's a shame we can't have them anymore

[wispy cypress]

double ports, double hotel missions, sounds like No

[raw gale]

They may be same environements but they wouldn't feel redundant since they have completely different layouts :/

[wispy cypress]

it was just beta- early access stuff, all maps are now upgraded etc

[sturdy pawn]

Huh, just realised a little something.

The FISA agent in Greased Palms might not be corrupt, I think he just found some dirt on the agency and they wanted him silenced

[thick sleet]

is it possible to play RoN on german difficulty (only taser)

[dire vine]

yeah if you're brave enough

[raw gale]

Definetely possible but you will need some way of disabling long range threats like a gas or stinger launcher

[umbral oar]

some FREAKS have done it

[thick sleet]

can you use the breacher shotgun as a "regular" shotgun for takibg out suspects

[spark hemlock]

ammo wise good luck

[frail pier]

Nah it's like 10 shots with the barrel 1 inch from their face to incap just a civ💀

[sinful brook]

English police difficulty, ive read that they have officers who dont carry lethal weapons 😂

[quick jacinth]

Pepper spray, taser and your hands

[sinful brook]

https://tenor.com/view/england-fans-world-cup-come-on-england-england-gif-22297273

[frail pier]

If they fixed ammo with tazer stacking that's over 60 shots with tazer.... Ammo isn't the problem at that point.

[thick sleet]

i wish they would add some kind of loadout code which we can copy and share

only weapons and stuff not the cosmetics

[frail pier]

That sounds like a pointless addition honestly. It's not like RoN has that in depth of customization for loadouts.

[thick sleet]

with Equipment armor Sets and weapons this would be cool and quick to add

[mint falcon]

damn rek1n is a really rich guy huh

[dusk depot]

how can i save replays ? #🎨ron-screenshots-and-art message

[stone bay]

Bro said once wasnt enough

[stone bay]

Settings>gameplay>record Replays

[crystal sierra]

Tf they fucked up with this new patch? Suspects dying from paper balls and beanbags constantly, can't finish new mission on S without at least 1 always dying by my NPCs?

[noble pasture]

Skill issue

[crystal sierra]

Skill issue for how i can allow AI to shoot another AI? O.o I knew this server is full of bots, but your ingelligence passed even them.

[noble pasture]

A joke, so first rule is dont shoot the head with the bean bag

[bitter mason]

pretty funny suspects just ignore wedges and open doors anyways

[opaque meadow]

I completed all 3 dlc missions in singleplayer mode and they still are saying its "unresolved" with no time or grade.... whats going on :(

[long cipher]

like idk anymore how i did it but is 1:30m s rank on lethal obssesion good? xd

[frail pier]

Pretty fast for the most part.

[stone bay]

it's absolutely terrible (no validation for you)

[zenith dragon]

Did the devs delete the option for ADS ZOOM? I can't find it now

[noble pasture]

Its in gameplay I think

[zenith dragon]

Okay found it , seems the option is invisiable while mission

[zenith dragon]

Thanks!

[noble pasture]

NP

[sour fulcrum]

does ready or not have a good relation between where you shoot and the amount of damage suspects take?

like if you shoot at the heart will they die slowly?

or is it just pew pew and eventually dies?

[umbral oar]

head torso limbs thats about it

[sour fulcrum]

i'm talking about weak points apart from those like the neck the heart the lungs etc..

[umbral oar]

i guess arterial bleeds

[stable kernel]

There is no simulated organ system if you are asking about that

[sharp dirge]

make one then

[stable kernel]

Limb hit and ammo used affects damage and bleed chance, that’s about it

[stable kernel]

No u

[sour fulcrum]

what about fatal points apart from the head

[stable kernel]

Neck is pretty much always lethal I think

And buckshot to the limbs is always a kill

[sour fulcrum]

so the answear to my question is no

[dire vine]

Anyone have these advanced graphics options enabled?

Game to Render Latency
Game Latency
Render Latency

[stable kernel]

I mean what it takes to kill does depend on suspect go from the map and what armor they are wearing

[dense quest]

man idk if it's from the gunfighter mod but the mk1 with a sfmd brake basically has no recoil at all lmao

[crystal sierra]

Only me or AI now gets 1 full mag by default in their secondary / primaries ?

[vernal atlas]

having issues them going through doors on gas station

[noble pasture]

Not now no

[vernal atlas]

mine refuse to go through doors ive told them to shotgun flash or c2 flash and now just open and clear comands

[ionic gale]

Hey

[stable kernel]

[silk junco]

helo

[orchid phoenix]

[ionic gale]

how are you fine ladies and gentlemen?

[sharp dirge]

great

[naive ingot]

yo does anyone know why my game keeps crashing in the middle of a mission

i cant refund the game so essentially i have just lost 50 euros

[ionic gale]

Have you been running the game on direct x 12 or maybe turn down your settings?

Because the new unreal engine change has caused performance to basically become shit

[naive ingot]

yep

[ionic gale]

I’ve been having to run the game on direct X 11

[naive ingot]

if i do that it takes very very long to load in

and the fps becomes even worse

[ionic gale]

I think DX 12 is supposed to be the one that takes a very long time to load

[ionic gale]

That’s weird because direct x 11 to me is the lower performance option

[naive ingot]

strange

[ionic gale]

Do you know your specs?

[frail pier]

Safemode is dx11 right?

[dense quest]

Is your fps very low in general or normal?

[naive ingot]

like 40-60 id say normal

[ionic gale]

You mean without any mods or anything like that?

[dense quest]

Games crash sometimes when the gpu's vram is not enough

[frail pier]

Yes safemode launch option.

[ionic gale]

Doesn’t supposedly say what type it is so I don’t know

[dense quest]

You should probably mention your specs in general, and try updating your graphics driver (very repetitive advice I know but it helps sometimes)

[ionic gale]

Yeah, I wasn’t upgrading my driver regularly so uh of course games are going to suck booty on it

I finally did and I got visible better amounts of performance at least

[naive ingot]

i have a 1050 ti, very bad gpu but i believe still above the minimum recommened

my drivers are all up to date and i have never had crashing issues with the game before the update

[dense quest]

Hm yeah it's on a new version of unreal engine so tbh crashes for some ppl are expected sadly

At least hope is not lost and they'll likely work on these issues as time passes by

[ionic gale]

My three basic specs are:

1. A RTX GeForce 3050 basic from NVIDIA
2. 15 gigs of memory (RAM)
3. Intel Core i5 CPU

[dense quest]

You should definitely play on dx11 with an old nvidia gpu tho

[ionic gale]

Yeah, I’ve been running the game on dx11

[sharp dirge]

how u got 15gb

[frail pier]

He chewed off a piece of his 8gbx2

[dense quest]

No bub I was talking to goober, your 3050 is not old and dx12 should perform better on paper

[ionic gale]

ahh alr

The only thing that sort of bugged me about dx 12 with this new update is that the low times are a bit longer than I want to, but its all right

[dense quest]

Also yeah how do you have 15gb ram lmao

[sharp dirge]

4gbx4 > 8gbx2

[naive ingot]

thanks you guys for helping

[ionic gale]

I checked my task manager and that’s just how much memory I had

I’m guessing the person that made my build decided to give me that much just cuz

[sharp dirge]

are you sure?

[ionic gale]

I don’t got access to my computer right now so I can’t double check at the moment

[sharp dirge]

ram doesn't tend to work like that
hardware reserved memory?

[frail pier]

Bro has 1tb
"AcShUaLlY iTS 913gb"

[ionic gale]

hmm, I’m just being dumb and I’m just equating the entire computers memory to being ram

[sharp dirge]

wait do you mean 15.6gb of ram

[ionic gale]

15.(something) gigs of memory

[sharp dirge]

oh alright

[ionic gale]

That is wut I saw on my task manager

[sharp dirge]

makes more sense now

task manager shows 15.6 for me

[stable kernel]

The full amount of ram cannot be used, and one of the listings adds the page file to that total

[sharp dirge]

hello itty bitty junior mod

[ionic gale]

Yeah, I’ve been able to run more demanding games that I play pretty all right

[stable kernel]

[ionic gale]

I don’t know exactly how I would rate my build to either low, mid or high tier

[sharp dirge]

who has a page file 🤮

[stable kernel]

[steady folio]

I saw on Stream that the DLC needs 60GB is this true?

[ionic gale]

That’s weird,

[dense quest]

1x 8gb, 1x 4gb, 1x 2gb, 1x 1gb, and break a 1gb ram into a 60/40 split and use the 60 one. Perfect

[sharp dirge]

probably includes size of base game but idk

[ionic gale]

I just decided to reinstall my entire game when I started to play the update my first time

[steady folio]

Ok 👍

[bitter mason]

no
The DLC is already installed with the new update, buying it just unlocks its content
the game is still around 50gb

[sharp dirge]

nerd

[brave bridge]

is there balaclavas yet?

[bitter mason]

yes only for multiplayer tho, they are head options

[sick pine]

Meow

[brave bridge]

okay thx, weird that its only for multiplayer

[sick pine]

Yeah only for multi cause thats the only place where you can switch character models

[brave bridge]

makes sense

[sick pine]

Weird solution to adding balaclavas ngl

[brave bridge]

woudlnt mind bots having them too

[sick pine]

Could add a new tab "facewear" and it would have balaclavas, gaiters, etc.

[brave bridge]

yeah that'd be nice

[sick pine]

Yup yup

[noble pasture]

Managed to S rank postal on first try

Then game froze on valley

[native rune]

I love it when the game crashes when the swat ai clear a random doorway after dedicating 40 plus minutes to doing shit carefully

[bitter mason]

The way they do clothing currently. theres only a single model for all heads. There's already clipping issues with some helmets and glasses so balaclavas would likely require a separate model/shape to fit each head.
So they just did three heads with a balclava likely to cut down on the ammount of models and time it would take to fit a mask to each head

[sick pine]

Yeah i get that but it'd appreciate a new tab for any face accessories on the future

[bitter mason]

definitely would be nice

[sick pine]

Yep

[noble pasture]

I had 6 arrested suspects on 3rd floor alone

Had finished 2nd floor and wanted to go first.
Game: "Heard you had progress, let me freeze real quick"

[amber dock]

Nah, you can just drag in the map from UE4.

[dense quest]

but do you need to do adjustments to make it work normally with ue5 or is it an easy process in general?

[tropic mantle]

Ever since latest update, my game's just had corrupt files.. tried verifying files and same thing... any suggestions?

[stable kernel]

#❓modding-faq-archive message

[ionic gale]

I’m guessing you’re running completely moddless

[tropic mantle]

Yeah, apart from mod.io which I didn't realise you had to delete

[wheat zealot]

is the dlc worth it

[tropic mantle]

which i'll do rn

[ionic gale]

The entire unreal engine update fucked up all mods

So mods that were in made for the old UE 4 version of the game will not work for the new UE 5 version of this game

[ionic gale]

I had a good time with the DLC. I haven’t finished lawmaker yet and I do like the cosmetics a fair bit

I would say that it’s nice for the 10 wacky bucks price

[wheat zealot]

i might consider it, thank you

[ionic gale]

Or whatever your currency is in whatever country you are holed up in

[ionic gale]

There’s three maps and you get a fair bit of cosmetic items

[wheat zealot]

oh damn, i thought there was only one or two maps with a few cosmetics, thanks for letting me know

i havent actually been on the steam page yet,

[ionic gale]

There are some three new weapons, but that comes free regardless of you own the DLC

[wheat zealot]

i just checked the reviews for the dlc, and for some reason they are calling it "jank"

[ionic gale]

A DM4: smol .300blk ar 15
Flux Raider + P320: a semi auto pistol in a fancy PDW configuration an SMG
509 pistol: a 9 mm SMG that has 17 rounds making at the highest capacity 9 mm pistol in the game

[crude prism]

the game transitioning to UE5 is the jank, not DLC related, people are just using the dlc steam page as an outlet

[ionic gale]

That’s most likely, just performances issue due to the new unreal engine change

[ionic gale]

I feel like that, according to most people, the minimum requirements should be changed

[wheat zealot]

i dont think my pc is good enough 😭

[ionic gale]

Because apparently this new update is making it so that low tier rigs will either not run it or barely run it

[ionic gale]

What are the specs that you have?

You can check your basic specs with task manager

CPU, RAM/Memory & ur GPU

[wheat zealot]

i3 processor, 8gb of ram and nvida gtx 1650

[ionic gale]

Hmm

[wheat zealot]

i think its mainly my processor thats letting me down

[simple drum]

i5-7600K
GTX 1080
16GB DDR4

Most of it runs fine. But just been having random freezes

[ionic gale]

Intel Core i5 cpu
RTX GeForce 3050 (basic)
15 gigs of memory

[sharp dirge]

risc-v build when

[ionic gale]

The game runs good for me, maybe I should switch back to dx12

[warped heath]

Are there any ways to get DLSS to not make my reticle look terrible?
I play 4k so I kind of need DLSS for decent frames, but hate that it makes all the reticles look really pixelated and blurry

[frail pier]

What DLSS setting you using?

[simple drum]

DX12 has been better for me for most maps

I did have to use DX11 for Postal though

[warped heath]

Had it on performance, but changed it to balanced so it was more tolerable

[ionic gale]

Maybe try launching the game in direct x 11 for possibly better performance and if it doesn’t work well then like it’s most likely your specs or something

[ionic gale]

lol I finally decided to get off my ass and decide to get GeForce experience to upgrade my driver

I really don’t know why the hell I didn’t do this sooner, my games ran fine without updating it, but I just felt like I needed to do it at some point

The game ran noticeably better when I did that lol

Uh

[noble pasture]

I hate how hard the game is on vanilla

its not the individual missions but rather shit like SWAT AI poor clearing and how they get stressed fast

[stone bay]

Why can't I seem to be able to put a laser pointer on the VKS? Every time I do it makes it a flashlight instead

Even with no illuminator attached it's a flashlight

[opaque meadow]

does practice mode unlock the next mission and save grades?

[agile topaz]

yes but not for commander mode and practice mode is called quickplay now

[ionic gale]

I mean, at least they changed the name to it being a more accurate description of what that is

I made something cheeki breeki

[drifting sand]

Incidentally.

The change isn't thorough.

It's still called practice mode in things like the score and bearcat scenes.

[turbid pawn]

We have a date for dlc 2 ?

[drifting sand]

It's definitely coming after DLC 1

[robust apex]

What’s up with AI pathing? Sometimes they don’t move into a doorway or threshold? 🤔

[waxen grove]

doors stump the ai, thats how dumb that can be some times

[forest kraken]

alright bois share your loadouts and why u prefer it

[frail quartz]

Wait, they finally added a full-capacity pistol!?!?

[ionic gale]

Yes 👏

[frail quartz]

Took them long enough, smh

[ionic gale]

The FN 509 has 17 rounds, we finally have another viable shield option even though we all secretly know the 57 is the best

[forest kraken]

57 armor piercing 😍

[stone bay]

5.7 to a head keeps the doctors away

[frail quartz]

TBH unless they make 9mm take less shots to down suspects than 5.7 then I don't really see any reason to choose the former over the latter.

[forest kraken]

.300 blk keeeps the doctors away

[stone bay]

Honestly MP5 10MM is my go to for smaller compact maps, it packs a bunch and is quick and reliable. If not i go for my standard MCX, GA416 or SA58 my beloved. For sidearms i usually run the 509 cuz it’s clean and bold or the glock 19

[frail quartz]

I understand that medical bills can be frustrating but you guys are going too far, smh

[stone bay]

Honey badger go brrrrt

[forest kraken]

i personally use the lvar with 2 mags fmj 2 mags ap, and then the five seven with ap. i like the ammo capacity.

[forest kraken]

skill issue

[stone bay]

I dont really like having 2 ammo types in 1 go i usually run either AP for heavy armor maps (Narcos, Neon, Slope or College) but for meat bodies i run JHP

I might occasionally run JHP on armor maps for the stagger to a kill shot

[forest kraken]

i usually forget to switch ammo thats why i run 2 sets

[stone bay]

Fair

[forest kraken]

i use .300 to make a statement and sa 58 to assert dominance

HOLY CRAP I DONT REMEMBER THE SA 58 BEING SO DAMN POWERFUL

[stone bay]

Lol it’s 7.62x51 ofc it kicks ass

[dense quest]

Okay now I finished the dlc maps (took me ages I know) and I think narcos was the best

[stone bay]

S rank narcos was annoying

[dense quest]

||I was slowly clearing the houses assuming our guy is ded but when I heard the screams it got really intense and I started rushing|| spoiler for future dlc owners

Pretty cool experience

[stone bay]

That informant was really nasty to look at

The details on his body are immaculate and represent narc brutality

[ionic gale]

Yeah, I’m glad I shot a majority of those cartel crooks dead

The few that have been arrested, will certainly be put away for rest of their lives

[dense quest]

Oh I shot them all fucking dead ||especially after seeing the dead doggo||

[stone bay]

Or subjected to death by squad fire

[dense quest]

Can't trust the trash justice system to actually punish them

[stone bay]

I wonder if burning on a pike is still common practice? Prolly in eastern europe

[ionic gale]

[forest kraken]

when you see the doggo thats when shit goes down

[ionic gale]

Yeah, when you hurt one of our own police officers of course D platoon is gonna kick your asshole

[stone bay]

Not the informant, not the blood everywhere, the damn dog done me mad

[stone bay]

Bust em hard champ

[forest kraken]

sure you can kill people, sure, torture people, i might just incapacitate you

but after seeing the dog...

[stone bay]

No one should touch dog

[forest kraken]

You are no longer fit to live. You're going to die a slow, brutal death.

[stone bay]

If you touch doggo you will met god 30 times painfully

[ionic gale]

Another map that got me thinking is the lawmaker map which I haven’t finished yet

[forest kraken]

makes you wonder why they shot doggo, maybe doggo tried to protect people

[full shore]

Lawmaker and narcos are really good maps. Dorms was meh

[ionic gale]

I feel like void wanted to do the same concept as that diamond store mission in swat 4 where you’re technically helping somebody that at the end of the day, a horrible person

In SWAT 4 through environmental storytelling you find out that the diamond store is using child slavery to get the diamonds that they sell

[stone bay]

Lawmaker is def my fav map. It’s intense and really fits the actual DLC name of Home Invasion

[forest kraken]

voll will never be arrested in one piece

[dense quest]

I mean lawmaker did deliver that feeling a little bit like in one of my runs where my swat ai shot the rich bastard I actually felt like oh hey mission extra successful

[forest kraken]

i purposefully bring the shotgun to that level just so i can seperate his limbs

[stone bay]

It’s basically protecting some wealthy dude who might turn out to be some bad guy

[ionic gale]

Yeah, it is found out on Raskin’s conspiracy board in carriers of the vine that there is a magazine That says Voll may try to weasel his way out of his charges

[dense quest]

they try to portray that he is indeed a bad guy from the way he talks to you when you rescue him

[ionic gale]

Yeah, exactly that as well I was talking about with that swat 4 diamond mission

In that mission, you’re basically saving a diamond shop that is using child labor from mines in under developed countries to get its diamonds

This is the same thing in this mission to where you’re saving a lobbyist that is contributing to our planet being fucked up by global warming for better or worse

Here these eco-terrorists don’t like it, but since they keep shooting at my officers, I don’t sympathize with them rlly

Same thing with the carriers of the vine cult These are women that have been abused by men, but idk they keep trying to kill me and my officers to the point that can’t feel too bad about them

[stone bay]

I really want extra maps that are more Urban such as stores that get robbed or a massive bank hostage rescue mission

[ionic gale]

The oil lobbyist and the diamond store owners are bad people

[stone bay]

Like a Bank map, a 4 maybe 5 story office level and some other miscellaneous stuff

[ionic gale]

But we have to save them because no matter of our views on thar matter, it’s just our job to make sure that we save them

[stone bay]

Law will fuck em in the ass afterwards

[ionic gale]

Also, by the way, I don’t mind about suspect ROE in the elephant mission

These are dipshit school shooters, and they will be KOA

If they want to surrender that’s fine. It just makes my job easier, but if they raise their weapons for any reason at anyone, they will be put down

[stone bay]

ROE shouldnt be there in the first place for a school shooting. KOS should be an immediate order and a search and destroy should be conducted

[ionic gale]

[simple drum]

It gave me a penalty of friendly fire but deducted 0 points. I don't recall shooting any of my officers 🤷

[bitter mason]

Im always mixed with ROE
I like it strict because its a fun subversion to just running and gunning like you can basically do in RON anyways
But I think it definitely should depend on the level
Warrent/Raid levels like meth, beachhouse and port should have stricter ROE
Whereas rapid response ones like Nightclub, Campus and hospital should be way more relaxed

[noble pasture]

Fun fact, Daniela Voll's lines in English are influenced by her Romanian heritage

When she resists swat but doesnt have the range to punch says and I quote "Fuck your mother" a rather common insult in Romania

[bitter mason]

thats pretty much a common insult everywhere

[noble pasture]

No?

[bitter mason]

its not a very unique one
maybe not down to the exact phrasing

[sharp dirge]

I've heard many british people say that

[noble pasture]

Guys, I need a way to beat RoN's hardcore mode

No mods, no cheese, no alt-f4

[sharp dirge]

sad I was about to suggest alt f4

[noble pasture]

A gun that hits hard but not too hard?

I see that of rifle calibers 5.56 JHP has least risk of over pen

And can beat all armors easily up to 4

[dense quest]

yeah I'm pretty sure irl it's a kill on sight

I think one of the school shooters got shot in the back without the weapon raised at the officers

[noble pasture]

Irl suspects would throw their guns before line of sight with swat happens

Since swat treats "gun in hand = threat"

[dense quest]

I think they're more lenient sometimes but there are situations where and I quote a real officer/military gameplay channel "if you have a gun you're dead"

[frail quartz]

IRL SWAT is only sent when negotiation is out the window, are they not?

[dense quest]

usually yeah but I'm not sure in active shooting scenarios they might just rush in to end the threat immediately without negotiation attempts

[ionic gale]

Yeah, if the suspect doesn’t want to comply with the nice people on the line that’s when D platoon kicks their asses

[noble pasture]

Swat is sent when normal police can no longer control the situation

[frail quartz]

If they're an active shooter, yeah, it's pretty clear that there's no negoations to be made

[lone raven]

Ask nicely.

[frail quartz]

Damn, good point

[dense quest]

which makes it stupid when toc says "negotiations have failed" in the beginning of elephant and neon tomb 💀

[noble pasture]

In RoN we open fire when threat level gets to 5. Aka "suspect is about to use lethal force"

[lone raven]

PLEASE sir would you KINDLY stop?

[frail quartz]

Suspects in this game would surrender a lot more often if we just asked nicely instead of screaming at them

[ionic gale]

Yo, I don’t think these guys are negotiating lol

[noble pasture]

"Get on the fucking floor now!"

[ionic gale]

Yeah, during situations like that, I will be putting down anybody armed that is not my element

[dense quest]

ngl I was doing that in narcos too since the cartel all dress similarly, I even shot one in the back lol

[lone raven]

Coroner is gunna have a field day.

[dense quest]

he was carrying a modified AR of course 🙃

[noble pasture]

So what happens to our Undercover guy from LSPD?

[ionic gale]

Uh well Doc he’s going to have a long session with the dude after he gets out of the hospital

[noble pasture]

He is alive but the cartels know he is a cop

[ionic gale]

Yeah, we’re probably gonna have to put that man into protection

[noble pasture]

They took 2 of his toes

[lone raven]

Tell you what they should do with ROE: make it a mission setting. So, you can choose lethal as acceptable for active shooting incident.

[ionic gale]

Ouh? :o

[lone raven]

The host should be able to have modifiable parameters.

[ionic gale]

Oh yeah mission settings for hosts

[static basin]

i just found a really weird bug the 509 pistol recoils downwards when you have dlss on performance or ultra performance

[ionic gale]

Of course It could cause the host to just make crappy mission types that are not fun or just overly tedious so that’s a problem

[dense quest]

luckily there are mods that do this but yeah I totally agree

[noble pasture]

Why the 2 cops on scene for Narcos?

[ionic gale]

I’m guessing they’re setting up the perimeter

[noble pasture]

Around a block?

[ionic gale]

I think the house that we first raid is actually the house that Alejandro is in

[lone raven]

But community then chooses an ROE that fits their play style. All those SEAL LARPers can go for gold.

[ionic gale]

YAY

[noble pasture]

Yeah, first one is his. Thats where the audio tapes are. Rest are just Cartels invading those homes to torture the agent

They need time to get info from him so they set up shop

[night pasture]

It’s just a neat detail and it’s in the briefing

[ionic gale]

Do you guys fw OD green?

I run that uniform color for me and my AI officers all the time

[noble pasture]

I like black

Swat isn't a force that needs camo, but makes use of black as a psychological tool

Men in black uniforms appear bigger and more intimidating

[ionic gale]

Not wrong tho

[noble pasture]

Toc, Civilian is DoA. Brainrot most likely.

[lone raven]

Green better than black for night ops.

Plus, green means fields and fields are manly.

[buoyant fern]

Is anyone else's SWAT AI acting stupid as fuck this patch or is it just me?

[sharp dirge]

SWAT AI has always been stupid as fuck but it does kinda feel stupider now

[buoyant fern]

They seem to get stuck on doors a lot more often and do really strange room clears

[sharp dirge]

took me 5 tries to get them to stack up at one point, had to make them stack up at another door and then at the door I wanted them at

[sour fulcrum]

why does the officer lower slitghly his gun while asking for compliance?

[dense quest]

you probably figured this out by now but sometimes the reason they get stuck is because of a door that isn't fully open/closed

I've had stuck ai start moving again by closing and opening doors in their path

saying this as a tip in general, I do agree they feel worse now

[limber saddle]

are most of the achivements solo only or could you do them all w a friend

[silk junco]

you can do them with friends

[limber saddle]

thank god

[near viper]

is it just me or can you not really free lean over railings and barriers the same way as before

😦 sad

[lone raven]

They need to go back to SWAT school.

Pre-school at this stage.

[bitter mason]

visual flair, honestly should be removed cause it does get in the way sometimes

[lone raven]

Because his chin is connected to his firearm.

His buttstock is on the tip of his chin.

[sour fulcrum]

i mean i don't see the point of that i know it's for visual effects but it can deeply affect your gameplay

[acoustic ridge]

can i die (myself not the ai swat) for ironman achievement

[river tide]

if you die you wouldn’t even pass ironman

[acoustic ridge]

i forgot about that part (the main part of ironman)

[lone raven]

They should at least not make it dip as much.

If they won't remove it completely.

[sour fulcrum]

i mean i get it yelling makes you move a bit but not that much

[lone raven]

It's because he's blowing out a lung yelling GET DOWN ON THE GROUND louder than a flashbang

[livid sluice]

He’s nodding the gun down while asking for someone to get down

[sour fulcrum]

but the only person who's going down is me cause my scope is no longer on the same place

[umbral oar]

i just stop yelling when they’re about to shoot

[lone raven]

I've changed my interact and yell keys so I just stare at them, then pick a time to yell.

https://tenor.com/view/kurt-angle-stare-100-yard-stare-meme-gif-251436459491629941

[wooden merlin]

this game is so unoptimized it's not even funny

[umbral oar]

I have a good chuckle bout it sometimes

[elder void]

Probably not the most important feature right now, but has anyone been trying the "Replay" function lately?

Seems to work perfectly with COOP sessions, but SP not so much. Seeing a lot of weird things when watching a replay of a SP mission, I can't hear any characters speak, firefights that took place just have NPCs standing still and droping weapons when they were supposed to have been shot and no sounds of gunfire at all!😂

[umbral oar]

yeah it’s finicky

[elder void]

Too bad, cause it should be a great tool for Machinimas.

[simple drum]

I'm not a fan of how big and open Port is. Not exactly CQB

[high cipher]

i feel like of all smgs (other than the mp5) id expect the vector to be in the game

[lone raven]

Kinda breaks it up tho

[simple drum]

I guess. Feels like I need a sniper rifle for all this open area

[agile topaz]

gamers i did it i went outside

[sharp fox]

im sorry to hear

[agile topaz]

youre right im back to my dark cave now much more comfy

[earnest heath]

Has anybody had the issue of getting a critical error upon game launch or game crash after mission end?

[lone raven]

#💻tech-support

[earnest heath]

Thanks

[shut tree]

I feel like the first 2 dlc maps are too big which makes it unrealistic for single player with AI if mutiplay then it would be pretty good map for that

[safe oriole]

am i the only one who thinks narcos AI have a buff?

headshot 45 ap and they just eat it

[lone raven]

Never had that. They always drop to a headshot on my end.

[safe oriole]

does the pisol "smg" count as a pistol for beat cop

[stone stump]

45 ap sucks + suspects can survive headshots in ron because reasons

[safe oriole]

im going to try 357 for beat cop since they eat everything

[stone stump]

just use five seven smh

[safe oriole]

its never worked for me

[limber saddle]

would the best pistol even be

they all feel like paintball guns to me

[safe oriole]

fr

it literaly doesnt matter narcos is broken, bro was stunned and his barrel wasnt even aiming at me and i got washed

[lone raven]

I mean you should FMJ, headshot, 1911.

[hushed fulcrum]

anyone know why my ai teamates are trash and dont do what i tell them

[safe oriole]

example?

[chrome notch]

any news on ready or not for console

[noble pasture]

Wait, what kind of language does swat have?

Is it "suspect down" or "suspect killed"?

Should be adaptable, if you shoot a suspect 2-3 times and he goes down, should be just "down". But if you go monkey mode and shoot him 6 times, say "killed"

[toxic palm]

Gets shot in the heart with 7.62 nato "suspect is alive and breathing"

[stone bay]

Down or Killed can be interpreted both different and same. They’ll usually say incapacitated if they are incapacitated or sometimes down cuz they aint moving

[noble pasture]

We dont have a heart hitbox

[stone bay]

Just shoot em in the head for good measure ig

[noble pasture]

But yeah I got jumped by a suspect, shot me in the leg straight in the artery so I dumped 4 rounds in his gut

[stone bay]

Fair trade

[toxic palm]

I legit shot a crackhead on the side it wouldve gone through both lungs, heart

[noble pasture]

I want to like F90, but it ocupies half the screen when I point shoot

[stone bay]

Shot might only register in rhe side not heart? There’s no proper bullet penetration that goes all through yet

[toxic palm]

What fov do you play on

[noble pasture]

100

[toxic palm]

Ok nvm, guess you gotta get used to the brick

[noble pasture]

F90 is a chunky boy

[toxic palm]

Also also, mp5/10 is really good? The fact that theres no slap on empty makes it so fast to reload

I need to use it more, i love the irons on the mp5 (theyre technically the night sights, ie. Not the classic peep hole which would suck for cqc)

[worn girder]

For Way Out West, are wedges allowed? I know nvgs and other stuff isn't, but are wedges?

[noble pasture]

I got it done by giving the bots a lot of ammo and tell them to kick and clear

[worn girder]

Yeah fair, I just use wedges to section off entire areas at a time and work in straight lines, idk if wedges are allowed though

[noble pasture]

Wedges might be banned

[toxic palm]

Need to make a mod to add a combine elite insignia as a patch

[noble pasture]

If you need to press click to use or its a tactical like nvg then its banned

[worn girder]

Ah I see, I'll try without wedges and hope for the best, thanks

[noble pasture]

The tunnels are dark but not dark enough to be unbeatable without nvg

[worn girder]

Yeah tunnels aren't the issue, people wandering off and going straight to hogwarts or something is the bigger one

[noble pasture]

Make sure to get a laser on the revolver and cant it

[worn girder]

Yep already been doing that

Hot take but canting>adsing for close distances

[noble pasture]

Well yes but aiming with a flashlight is hard

[toxic palm]

Nah

[worn girder]

Yeah fair, I usually run laser for close range and nvgs for nighttime/dark

[toxic palm]

You just gotta get used to it, i free fire without any lights and hit shots

[stone bay]

MP5/ 10 is just the goat. It’s super versatile and packs a punch, it’s super great for CQB or even long ranges at times

[lone raven]

Negative.

[lone raven]

But they've done weird things with the flashlight. It should be easier.

[sinful ruin]

Smg in this game is pointless

please bring use a sbr

[fleet talon]

they need to add a purple team at least for the huge maps, would be more immersive and fun

[waxen grove]

P90 has been good in situations

[drifting sand]

One issue that does seem to become apparent, especially with lower calibres, is that suspects have little actual reaction to being shot outside of a quickly recovered from flinch.

Which would be fine on something like trained fedayeen or paramilitary style security, but makes little sense on the local homeless population and gang bangers.

[quick jacinth]

Or just mag dump them in the face

[noble pasture]

Smg is good vs no armor

[uneven siren]

man i want the old hotel map back

i love that level

[fiery narwhal]

I like mpx

[static slate]

is the stun shotgun really good ? i tried it on the first mission in solo and got a S but idk about the other mission (im new to the game)

[jolly verge]

It's good for practice mode, but if you playing commander VKS is way better with traits

[turbid pawn]

I did all my rank S with the stunt shotgun in the both mode but I think VKS better in commander

[jolly owl]

Use Beanbag on Quick Play

Use VKS on Commander Mode once you have Teammates with the right traits, which Zeus can explain here

[rare estuary]

Yes

[mental aspen]

Yesterday I shot someone, they flinched and despite their gun pointing away from me they got a shot off and I died

[dense quest]

It's good but there are missions where you'll struggle with it like big ones

As others said, pepperball is better with your swat ai team once you unlock their traits

I personally never cared about S ranks anyway so I rarely go less than lethal

Btw do the suspects in lawmaker and narcos wear armor?

[quick jacinth]

I can't stand having to use most of my slots for ammo and using half a mag to make a suspect comply so i'd rather just run the Beanbag since it will almost always make a suspect surrender

only problem is range which is only a problem on some maps likes relapse and port

[jolly verge]

Yeap, L3A and level 4

[quick jacinth]

though uh i would advise against giving the AI a beanbag shotgun unless void fixed their tendency to tap people in the face with it

[high summit]

has probs been asked a billion times allready

but do S ranks need to be done in commander to count towards the achievement?

cuz i have them all but i still havent gotten it

note that they were completed in multiplayer

[jolly verge]

Before update it's was not possible to get achievements in multiplayer, for now it's should count if you host

[high summit]

alr fair

[swift glade]

I've gotten achievements is multi as not host

[fiery narwhal]

agreed

[mellow valve]

how do i record a replay

[noble pasture]

Got an A on Narcos and I pretty much incapped or killed every suspect

[copper cypress]

Does a map with more civilians than suspects mean that even if I kill all the suspects, my SWAT Ai's status will not decrease?

[noble pasture]

Civilians restore sanity to officers

[copper cypress]

Okay

[open harness]

should my game crash when launched with DX12 option

[low geode]

no

no you have eny mods downloded ?

[noble pasture]

make SWAT AI stop killing human shields

[wintry wind]

shotugn is pretty good on players, but dont give it to bots if youre going for S rank. but yes, the shotgun is the best less lethal option

[noble pasture]

they keep shooting the suspect through the civie, and it has happened more than once

[wintry wind]

for getting the dev watch, does anybody know if firing an officer voids your ability for getting it? i guess i would also like to know if it voids the hermit achievement as well

[static slate]

is the commander progression is seperated from online

[noble pasture]

Yes

[static slate]

ah, okay lol, thats why i only have 2 mission done in solo

[noble pasture]

Voids it

[wintry wind]

https://tenor.com/view/chiraq-lildurk-durkio-chiraqimony-gif-18480709

[dusky compass]

Is there still a way to draw on the map? I could only use the markers

[forest kraken]

300 blk my beloved

[static slate]

weird but i did 23 Megabytes mission, had a A+ and it didnt save on the mission counter ? (in commander mod) i got the next mission available

and the next mission already have a A ranking 🤔 (i did it in mp)

[sharp sparrow]

Does trailers exist yet? Or like is that still not implimented?

[ruby umbra]

Guys, i opened the game and it says "thanks for purchasing the home invasion dlc" even though i never bought it??

this is also not the first time ive played since the update, and im not a supporter edition owner

is it a bugged popup, or did i somehow get it?

[sharp dirge]

It's a known issue in patch 2

[hidden ibex]

Also any else got the issue where some maps don’t showcase their grade

[ruby umbra]

ok, so i dont have it

[sharp dirge]

no, if you haven't bought the dlc and you didn't buy the supporter edition you won't have it

[noble pasture]

Is doing a mission slowly okay if you minimalize damage taken?

Did narcos in 28 minutes mostly because I waited for bots to sweep when ordered

[sharp dirge]

nothing wrong with going slow in the missions

[amber dock]

Play however you want so you can get your victory. Everyone plays different and for different reasons. Play how you want that will give YOU the satisfaction.

[noble pasture]

Whats with the "Go To" action after "Awaiting Orders" for bots? Sometimes it never ends

[magic hearth]

This!

[amber dock]

See VOID dev certification

[sharp dirge]

void devs are nerds

[noble pasture]

Whats up with bots using a lot of bullets to take down 1 guy on Narcos? I gave them AP 300 blk

I thought it was rated for Lvl 4 armor

[amber dock]

‘Go to’ means your Ai will go to wherever you’re aiming at and stay there until you give them a new command. ‘Awaiting order’ means they are waiting for you to give them a command.

[noble pasture]

Bots do a "Go To" on their own after they finish clearing a room

[amber dock]

They will sometimes on their go to another room in connection with the room you told them to clear. Basically autonomous

[noble pasture]

I studied their clearing habits, they do "Move and Clear" continuing to clear even unprompted. When they get too far from the player or run out of stuff to clear go "Awaiting Orders" then "Go To"

Narcos is incredibly tedious for bots to clear, I once waited by a door 3 minutes for them to finish outside

But mission was a success. Killed/incapacitated all suspects. And only 2 bots ever got injured

Is rawdogging every room a good idea?

Well human shields would be sure to fuck my mission if they happen

Swat killed a hostage today cause they cant go for headshots

[sharp dirge]

swat are really good at killing hostages

[stone bay]

that's what they train for secretly

[simple drum]

Ya this has happened to me on the hospital level

[native rune]

It’s more annoying to me that they can’t seem to down a suspect without at least half of them being injured by the same attacker, while at the same time they magdump a suspect on the ground the nanosecond they think about standing up again, giving me no time to deploy less lethal instead as the suspect is now dead before I could even react.

Like everything’s good, the guys on his knees moving backward towards us, then Blam, to the human eye it looks like the ai officer just domed him for no reason.

[noble pasture]

"He sneezed sir"

[native rune]

Which, as usual at this point, highlights that the suspects not getting up if multiple officers are looking at them, still doesn’t work very good

[dense quest]

how I sometimes get them to clear large areas is by using the fall in command as soon as I see them going too far and preparing to enter next sections

[noble pasture]

What the fuck is swat AI doing?

They cant open a door without getting shot, I would take more aggressive swat AI

Dont even bother making them stack on the side they have cover

They gonna actively lean out of cover to engage suspects before a banger even goes off

[wraith shell]

does taser still have infinite range or whatev

[jolly verge]

it's still have 20m range

[sinful ruin]

You know, I can only see smg usage in low cost environments. Because SBR is literally better in all environments. Portable flashbang device with obnoxious amount of gas and
Unparalleled firepower.

You play it like a police sim, I play it like a milsim

[acoustic ridge]

my swat ai mag dumping the human shield with their sa58

[bold canopy]

is it just me or has the game become a lot better optimised this new update

[sharp dirge]

you and a few other people

[gaunt nebula]

Anyone else experiencing SWAT AI outright ignoring orders a lot more frequently since the most recent patch?

[dense quest]

yes

[simple drum]

Yes

[gaunt nebula]

Not going through doors/clearing rooms, not picking up evidence, sometimes clearing rooms when I haven't told them to - the list goes on 😆

Reckon it has something to do with whatever they did with the doors in the patch notes? 🚪

[pseudo wind]

anyone know if the old mod that removed the upper right text still works?

[stable kernel]

In game menu has a file that does that now

[pseudo wind]

oh really?

is it possible you show me where?

#❓modding-faq-archive message

[turbid pawn]

All the mods that have not been updated that just concern our character (clothing or equipment) no longer work or are there some that work?

[noble pasture]

Farming Narcos for good footage I managed to get a hostage situation. Literally last suspect took a man hostage

To blind the criminal I used my pistol flashlight, and with 1 well placed shot I put him down

Glock may be a gun rated E for everyone, but as a cop gun its a staple

[oak root]

anyone got a 100% save file?

[jolly verge]

With all unlocked cosmetics?

[oak root]

yeah

[jolly verge]

Will send you in dm

[oak root]

appreciate it

[steel harbor]

me too pls?

[tulip karma]

link me up too fam

[steel harbor]

idek how to put it in my game lol

[silk junco]

just download the mod that unlocks all cosmetics

[jolly verge]

I send path in dm, just paste it in explorer or in win+r bar

[steel harbor]

for some reason mods stopped working for me a few updates ago, and all my friends.

[steel harbor]

ty

yeah but the mods all stopped like 2 weeks ago???

they worked fine beforehand, i thought the UE5 update was quite some time ago

[fallow warren]

Does anyone know if there are plans for the ai to be able to defuse bombs at some point?

[steel harbor]

okok ty

[covert furnace]

does the therapist staging an intervention fail the hermit run?

[shy tulip]

Doubt

[jolly verge]

nope

[covert furnace]

ty

[simple drum]

I hope so. It's nice when they auto arrest but seems odd they don't auto defuse

[fallow warren]

Makes quickplay runs of elephant and Relapse imposible. ( I tank the bullets because the AI is a bit too slow to be on their own in a firefight, once I die I carried them far away that we can S the map )

[covert furnace]

is there a way to tell if ive failed hermit run? like some stat somewhere or a file true or false

[jolly verge]

Not really, you fail it if one of your officer KIA after mission or fall down on port hokan, even if he incapacitated on score screen

[fiery hill]

To find your grade look at the mission menu on the briefing room desk and look for the grade on the bottom right of each mission selection tab thingy

[covert furnace]

i hope you dont know that from experience, yikes

[noble pasture]

@jolly verge give bots steel plates for armor?

Mod

Legit Gas Station cant have traps

[toxic palm]

https://www.nexusmods.com/readyornot/mods/4304 this mod xd

[hazy topaz]

It's the AI mod btw.
The config that's used to change AI is the same as the one used to set the traps

If you remove the AI mod, the gas station will not have traps

[quasi gate]

Gas Station used to have traps before the update

[opaque meadow]

I just beat a mission with my friend in MP and it still says "unresolved", our score wasnt saved.... whats going on :/

its like progress isnt saving at all for me.

[ionic gale]

I don’t think multiplayer progress counts for mission completion????

[opaque meadow]

what???

[ionic gale]

I don’t know don’t quote me on that

[fervent hill]

i wouldnt be suprised if its a glitch, you still get cosmetics from multiplayer (unless if the cosmetic is commander mode only). so it not counting doesnt make much sense

[shy tulip]

That means you did not complete all objectives, including soft

[fervent hill]

ohhh, i didnt even know that

[shy tulip]

It's a new thing in home invasion

[dense quest]

I thought we can command them to defuse it or did you mean that they do it autonomously?

maybe we can't command them to begin with but I vividly remember doing that idk

[fallow warren]

Both and you can't do either

[vital wing]

is the hermit achievement unable to be achieved? I found someone on steam saying that this is known bug

[shy tulip]

The hermit is the one about not dying in ironman, right

[covert furnace]

ye

[shy tulip]

Then it should be fine, haven't seen anything about that, not anything that wasn't fixed by replaying port on a higher score at least

[fervent zealot]

im happy that void gave the police station some love and gave what were only statues to show it is somewhat an active station, to show that it really is an active station with the npc voicelines when you pass them, although idk if this is happening to others but some are refusing to talk, even though you heard them talk before
is there like a way to properly trigger the voicelines or??

[vital wing]

roger that, thanks

also, can I fire officers?

[shy tulip]

For the one that says lose no officers, no, they cannot die, quit, be fired

[zinc totem]

i accedentaly deleted my mod.io file in ready or not folder and now it says it cant sync and it wont let me verify files

[vital wing]

okay, thanks you again

[shy tulip]

That should be fine, the most that would have done is deleted your mods, assuming you deleted only the modio folder and not the /paks folder.

[zinc totem]

yea just the mod.io

and i was trying to del my mods anyway

[shy tulip]

It'll come back when you launch the game and/or download more mods, I believe. There may also be some issues they need to patch with the in-game system, but I don't think it's a high priority

[radiant relic]

huh, did they lower the suspect count on Lawmaker? Before they made the dlc maps available in commander mode, I could've sworn the suspect count was like, around 15. It's been 9 suspects each run I do now

[boreal egret]

dude idek, i came here bc i just got home invasion and it says i have corrupts files 😭

presh

[radiant relic]

I just want to make sure I'm not getting, like, especially wack rng, because I know suspect cound can have a mild degree of rng

[boreal egret]

how do i verify the game files?

[shy tulip]

Right click the game and go to properties, installed files

[boreal egret]

thanks

[bitter mason]

I uhh, I dont think the flashlight blinds suspects at all lol

[past jacinth]

does anyone know when the next sale will be i want to get the game but its to expensive when not on sale

[sterile crescent]

most likely the winter sale but I could be wrong

[stable kernel]

https://steamdb.info/app/1144200/ you can check the price history here, and guess based on past sales

@umbral river Hi, game designer here. I liked your thoughts in this video #🎨ron-screenshots-and-art message, but I’m curious as to what you think VOID could have done to make things like the station interactive without just using more filler content, or make the backstories to the missions more interesting, or make the music better. I personally think a lot of it was really well done, and displays a lot of potential that just misses in some aspects - not at all that the game is soulless.

One thing I want to also note is that although I agree that the single-player writing could be expanded to include in-mission conversations or dynamic voice lines for each evidence/suspect (I’m sick of hearing “bagging it up” used for everything), each of the dozen or so SWAT VOs actually have two voice lines per mission that trigger at certain spots, where they comment on the environment. Did you notice this at all when playing?

I’d like to hear your opinions.

[umbral river]

I will get back to you, I’m currently at the gym! I can dm if you would like

[toxic palm]

theres another level where i got sick of it, the postal office "no one would notice if something went missing"

[covert furnace]

I wanna see those ideas too, so maybe no dm?

[umbral river]

That works aswell, I’ll send them asap, like I said I’m not home

[lone raven]

NPC Oblivion dialogue

[toxic palm]

have you heard of those USIA agents? horrible people i say

[frail quartz]

What do you mean? Surely anything from the government can't be bad, right?

[stone bay]

whole squad may be injured but ive S ranked narcos

[true saddle]

Just beat commander (many failed attempts and many unsuccessful objectives…)

[prime wing]

I also want to know what was meant with "cookie cutter levels."

Is the layout too predictable?
Is the forever ending loop of rooms interconnected a sign of a problem with voids map design foundations?
Is the level easy to clear out?
Do the maps feel empty because there is no big reveal or gruesome secrets on them?

What is a cookie cutter level?

and what can be done to make more enjoyable levels. I dont understand what is the complaint and sometimes it helps to be clear when it comes to feedback.

Saying SWAT 4 did it better at this point is no real argument if a person only plays a ready or not level once, when it has been known for a while that the game relies on a lot of rng and runs are likely to be different.

(Which comes at the cost of a scripted experience, some people feel different ways about it)

[lone raven]

Don't worry, I read it all for you.

[shy tulip]

Summarize it and put subway surfers under it

[stone bay]

anyone else feel like they kinda held back w/ lawmaker

oh thats funny i just got the no neutralizing achivement cuz i was doing an S run

[shy tulip]

I wish it had more suspects, but otherwise it depends what you mean

[stone bay]

no i mean with the storytelling

like the suspects didnt hurt anyone until we arrived, didnt assault the homeowner, nothing, they just painted his walls and fucked up his furniture

[shy tulip]

Also fucked the chandelier

But idk, in my view they're there just for the oil lobby guy, not anyone else (especially not the servants.) Maybe his family, but they're safe

[silk junco]

DO NOT DO THAT TO THE CHANDELIER

[proven blade]

@stone bay @mellow saffron

[peak sapphire]

@coral vigil

[shy tulip]

I've certainly had times where they're near the dad and take him hostage and blast em

[stone bay]

yea but like they didnt even lay hands on the dude before we got there

[mellow saffron]

why am i getting pinged? I havent been here in a minute ngl

[coral vigil]

@peak sapphire

[stone bay]

ive actually had them take servants hostage more than the dad, especially the dude that spawns in the one bedroom on floor 3

[silk junco]

Whoa :p

[stone bay]

couldve atleast given dude a bloody nose like the kid on sins of the father

[proven blade]

@mellow saffron some guy said some wack shit in gamechat and i need user id

and his name was reality soooo

[stable kernel]

The thing I just told you about applies to text chat as well. Keep things like that between moderation staff and yourself.

[stone bay]

anyone got any tips for beat copping narcos

[lone raven]

Tip 1. Shoot the head.

[stone bay]

thanks smartass

[silk junco]

tip 2. dont die

[stone bay]

sob

[lone raven]

Hey, that's how I got the achievement. 🤷‍♂️

[stone bay]

jhp or ap 🥺

[silk junco]

ap

[lone raven]

You're going to love this.

1911, FMJ. 😂

JHP* sorry

RMR it

[zinc totem]

what is the strongest pistol with a flat slide?

[stone bay]

if i use mirrorgun does it invalidate the achievement

[zinc totem]

(By flat slide i mean like a glock slide)

[lone raven]

I never use it so I don't know.

[silk junco]

glock

[sly nest]

Unironically though, you get a sight, decent mag, compensator, rail

[frail quartz]

By flat slide, do you mean just the side of it or the sides and top?

[zinc totem]

all of it

why did i shoot a door handle and my team just mag dupped me lmao

[frail quartz]

You must've accidentally shot a civilian or restrained suspect

[zinc totem]

dang

[stone bay]

died to the last suspect because wooden doors are bulletproof

[swift glade]

AP rounds? What gun you using?

[stone bay]

ap 9mm rounds and a wood door stops them

[swift glade]

Use a pistol with .45 acp

[stone bay]

point is a wooden door doesnt stop ap 9mm rounds

[swift glade]

Could be really hardwood in LS 🤷‍♂️

[stone bay]

🗿

im sure theyre using bulletproof wood for an abandoned garage side door in the poorest neighbourhood

[swift glade]

These gang bangers are resourceful

[stone bay]

aint even a gang bangers garage

[swift glade]

Says who

[stone bay]

says the fact that its on the same lot as a civilian house with a child nursery inside :<

im guessing the gangbangers house isnt painted with flowers and shit

[swift glade]

Gang bangers have kids ya know

[stone bay]

😭

[swift glade]

But would recommend 45 acp for narcos cop achievement

[stone bay]

the 9 mil worked i just got fucked on the last dude

id just walk up to the suspect, yell for compliance and immediately dome them. theres only one or two houses that suspects are even capable of spawning in from waht ive seen so i largely ignore them

[swift glade]

I've only ever used AP

I feel like JHP is sub par in almost every situation

[stone bay]

jhp is only good against non armored suspects

i.e. crackhouse, dormitory, etc

[umbral oar]

not tryna nail a civ in the head next room

[swift glade]

I've never had an issue

[umbral oar]

do u know that part in club with the thing

[swift glade]

The pool area?

[umbral oar]

that long hallway that connects to stairs and bar

[swift glade]

Oh yeah

[umbral oar]

theres like a tiny connector room that leads to the pool and i always kill a civ through the door

[noble pasture]

I was thinking, what about ironsights but aided by flashlight? Least height over bore

[swift glade]

Try running arn18 or lvar

Consistently will 2 tap just about anyone

Don't do full auto either

That's how you sling stray rounds

[noble pasture]

My issue is red dots get overshadowed by flashlights

[swift glade]

Canted aim

[noble pasture]

Can't aim canted with flashlight

[swift glade]

Or use the exps3 , it's site is decent in high visual lighting situations

[swift glade]

You can, just learn where the muzzle needs to be or aim flash center mass

[noble pasture]

Trying to get good footage of "Beat Cop" how do I make bots stop getting shot?

A gun they can use or a strategy?

Also feels like they can't kill a single narco suspect without spending half a mag, with AP ammo

Tried SA-58 but they finish the mag even faster with that gun

They keep firing them in full auto

[swift glade]

Take it slow, best path to take after first house is west

Just give em lvar

Or make them wait at start and solo it

Alternatively depending when you're on (time zones permitting) I can try and assist

[noble pasture]

West being to the left?

[swift glade]

Err (should be a setting in gameplay to turn on compass)

But I think it's far left

[toxic palm]

bro i was gonna flank enemy ai that was shooting at teammates, it INSTANTLY switched to me as soon as i peeked, what am i playing tarkov?

[swift glade]

Yes

[noble pasture]

Believe it or not, this is nerfed suspect AI

[swift glade]

[toxic palm]

it hasnt happend untill today lol

i remember how it used to be too

[mighty needle]

Anyone know anything about why might the Local VOIP be automatically and radomly switching to "team"

I'm playing with two friends and sometimes one of us will be on local voip or none of us, but we all want to be on local

And yes we are all on "Local" in settings

[noble pasture]

A guy posted that he got domed in the head as soon as suspect showed on the screen, by the pixel. Through a wall

[toxic palm]

literally tarkov AI

[noble pasture]

Not even US Navy Seals can pull off those shots

[toxic palm]

legit dont even wanna try greased palms again

[noble pasture]

But John Mc Crackhead does them in the dark

[toxic palm]

was the last suspect aswell, mfer STOPPED SHOOTING 4 cops to aimbot me from the other corner of the planet

also swat ai decided to light up a civvie

[livid fulcrum]

Am I the only one who has almost never been unfairly smacked by John Wick AI in my many hours of playing through every update?

[shy tulip]

Gamers are not ready to hear that their actions do infact impact how the AI react to them

[toxic palm]

it was the first time in ever since the first build basically

[livid fulcrum]

case, I guess

[toxic palm]

i was walking, behind cover, while it was shooting and being shot at

[nova laurel]

where can i find theoption for balaclava?

[toxic palm]

multiplayer, the 3 last head options

[shy tulip]

It is in coop under the echo character(s)

[swift glade]

I also have not been clapped out unfairly in a LONG time

[noble pasture]

Also why is there a voiceline for cutting wires? Especially if there is a suspect behind the door

[nova laurel]

dam

[shy tulip]

They will indeed shoot at you after you leave their line of sight for a few seconds, accurately at that, stay on ze move

[nova laurel]

i though it was gonna be a thing where you can equip it as its own

[lone raven]

We should be able to change it's brightness.

[glacial fjord]

why do so many people gatekeep the furcoat mod in ron

[shy tulip]

at this point I'll take them getting turned braindead and shooting the doorway to complete no effect if it means some complaints die down

[lone raven]

But we cannot. Sad face.

[shy tulip]

The what

[swift glade]

Brightness and colour, please and thank you

[toxic palm]

you dont get it, they werent targetting me to begin with, they stopped shooting the cops that were in their line of sight, to turn 180 and one tap me

[toxic palm]

look up Echo on nexus for singleplayer

[livid fulcrum]

Final update makes their fight response a T-Pose

[swift glade]

They calculated that you were the higher threat target

[glacial fjord]

https://www.nexusmods.com/readyornot/mods/4426?tab=posts they have it in a screenshot

im lookin specifically for that damn coat i just cannot find it 😭

[toxic palm]

how

ofc the replay is corrupted im killing myself

[lone raven]

I wish you could narrow beam so it'd be better for this.

[swift glade]

Gunfighter and sure-fire flashlight mod make a big difference

[livid fulcrum]

Remember that the way to not die instantly IRL is to minimize the risk of dying instantly.

[toxic palm]

i dont think people stop shooting active threats to shoot something behind them they couldnt hear

[umbral oar]

usia was in his ear & said “judge is behind you”

[toxic palm]

usia would never betray judge

[livid fulcrum]

Ok but unrelated to what I said

[toxic palm]

i was minimizing my risks for dying by slowly going through cover to flank them, peeking by holding free lean

[livid fulcrum]

IRL?

[toxic palm]

yeah

[livid fulcrum]

dam

[toxic palm]

im comatose rn

hr team in position

[lone raven]

Can you send me surefire one?

[swift glade]

Please hold

[lone raven]

Holding left, work right.

[swift glade]

https://www.nexusmods.com/readyornot/mods/1458

I use the 1200 lumen

Gives you the option for 900 / 1200 / 1500

[lone raven]

Thank you.

[swift glade]

You're welcome, also miss remembered

It's 500 / 1000 / 1200 / 1500

[shy tulip]

that number order is very upsetting

it's like one of those "guess the next number in the sequence"

[swift glade]

1200 / 1500 / 1000 / 500

I fixed it for you

[lone raven]

Way better.

[swift glade]

Yeeep

Visual enhancement mod also makes a MASSIVE difference

[umbral river]

i am having a major issue with crashing we havent been able to complete a run with out a crash.

in co-op

[swift glade]

Running any mods?

[umbral river]

no

[swift glade]

Dx 12 or 11?

[noble pasture]

Try each one

If it crashes a lot, change to the other

[swift glade]

Was asking old mate, I don't have issues luckily

[grave sigil]

only way to play is by losing my saved game!! Really???

[swift glade]

No?

Mine loaded fine

[stone stump]

because you still have the save data

[swift glade]

I made the assumption they still had the game installed

Why else would not having a save be an issue

[stone stump]

installing or uninstalling the game doesn't touch save data in any way

and ron is known for eating your saves for no apparent reason

[stable kernel]

Adding a launch option to delete your save doesn’t really help the matter. I’ve not even run into a situation where the save file was the issue outside of some strange issues with the loadout

I can only remember maybe two cases where they needed to delete the loadout file due to crashing before the menu opens

[gentle marlin]

does anyone know if the balaclavas are coming to sp ?

[sacred temple]

Hey, y'all. How the fuck do you do Elephant? I've been having runs where the first civilians start to die in less than sixty seconds.

Not even kidding, my last run had a civilian death sub ~fifty seconds.

Is it just hope for good RNG?

two minutes and another shot civ

Okay, this is fucking ridiculous. I didn't even get twenty seconds into the fucking mission before a civilian got shot. What the fuck?

IT HAPPENED
AGAIN.

(And, for the record--I'm not exaggerating. I'm talking "step into the building and there's already an 'objective failed' notice")

This is impossible. Every single run--every single run, no exceptions--they kill at least one civilian within exactly a minute.

I'm able to post so frequently because I restart my game between runs.

[swift glade]

That's very wierd

I assume vanilla?

[rustic robin]

The zombie or not paired with no crack for you heart attack edition is so much fun

[jolly owl]

Is it me or The Hand in Nightclub are more depraved than ever?

The ones I were able to cuff were like baiting me into killing them and the usual terrorist lingo

[sacred temple]

Okay, weird. Last run worked fine.

Almost got all four suspects before a shot happened (was one room away because I fumbled a command earlier, which slowed me down about ~5 seconds)

[rustic robin]

It's always been depraved since launch

Every single map has a bit of disturbing stuff.
On Elephant suspects shout for help acting like students than pop around the corner to shoot you. Honestly one of the reasons why I love RON.

[jolly owl]

Surprisingly

They dont do at my gameplay, prob because im too quick as hell and catch them off guard lmao

[rustic robin]

It's a pretty rare event to trigger. Has only happened to me once.

[noble pasture]

got 04:20 on dorms with bots

[noble pasture]

accidental weed joke

[sacred temple]

2:09 on gas station s rank

wait. apparently the speedrun.com third place time is 2:11 srank? i'm beating third place?

oh wait it's because i'm in commander mode, makes sense

[dire vine]

I've done it both SP and MP. This map is really balanced towards MP. If you play SP you gotta put the crew on lead

[jolly verge]

Nah, since they get shot from all directions it's better keep ceramic

[sacred temple]

I've gotten the rhythm down now. Seems like bad RNG just got me for a while

[dire vine]

Did you start at south or north entrance?

[sacred temple]

south

[sharp sparrow]

Is there no server ban/ information room?

[umbral river]

Mf’s are writing essays under my video lmao

[sharp herald]

is the preacher gone?

[noble pasture]

Hmm, I think so

[sand topaz]

I can't say that your "I'm not reading all that" response to what was a pretty insightful (and therefore lengthy) comment reply to your video reflects well on you

Its one thing to disagree with his points, but it's another to act in the way you claim "the community" acts

[slim rain]

does anyone know why i cant see the port map when i try playing in quick play

[dire vine]

you might need to unlock it

[slim rain]

how do i do that

do i just complete all the maps?

[dire vine]

Complete the last unlocked mission, it usually goes from top oldest and bottom newest

[slim rain]

alr thanks

[dire vine]

🫡

[noble pasture]

Got A+ on my Meldonin run but didn't kill anyone. It's because I had no evidence picked up?

[amber dock]

The achievement?

[noble pasture]

Yeah, I don't remember killing a suspect

But got A+ instead of S, lack of evidence?

[amber dock]

Meldonin you just need to finish the map under 5 minutes and all main objs done

[noble pasture]

So why I got an A+?

[amber dock]

Cause you probs arrested majority of the suspects

[noble pasture]

Bots had Bean Bag shotguns, I don't remember seeing a corpse

[amber dock]

I think if you didn’t get the achievement it’s because you took too long. At the score count it has to say below 5 minutes. So timer stops when score board shows up

[noble pasture]

I got the timer, the grade is what confuses me

[toxic palm]

Maybe one of them got hit in the head?
