[opal basin]

since theres no lethality command for some reason

like a command to tell your squad to only use non lethals

[wraith glade]

Yea they need to add that

what i did was just go to the locker and take all of their pistol ammo away and exchanged it for pepper ball mags for the VSK

[opal basin]

yeah, i do that usually as well. i just wish they would use tazers and pepper spray

also i wish there was a pepperball pistol, i mean they exist in real ife

[wraith glade]

Also, when playing in quick play and stuff, is your swat ai team just straight up dumb? Like, i can order them to open and clear a room and when they stack up and open the door the guy in front just randomly leaves the door and walks off somewhere completely random then back before actually doing anything. that or the ai just don't respond to commands at all sometimes when i give them. They just stand there and look at me

[opal basin]

for me when i order them to open and clear sometimes they just stack up and do nothing

[shy tulip]

They are no different than commander mode except that they don't get stressed out and there are no traits to unlock

[tiny quail]

the ai of the teammates is truly an enigma

[wraith glade]

So what's up with them just wondering off randomly when they go to clear rooms to some random location them coming back before doing it? and when i try to double breach with say.. red team on the double doors on the first mission and the blue team on the side door, and press execute, they literally walk away from their doors i told them to breach and flip doors with each other

red would go to the side door and blue would go to the double doors and then move in instead of sticking to the doors i put them on

[tiny quail]

i spent all my current 35 hours in the game on quick play and not even a singular match on multiplayer i feel like that never happened to me

[shy tulip]

They just do freaky stuff, my guess is a pathfinding issue. The theory I subscribe to is when you open a door towards them they won't push it the other way and pathfind away from that door.

[tiny quail]

if i told one half to stick on one door and the other to the other door they will do just that

[cunning fulcrum]

Bullup is nice anyways I think

[forest lichen]

modded commander mode

[opal basin]

huh?

[forest lichen]

ok but every round in the 1911 is capable of destroying a Tiger 1 due to them being blessed and baptised by Tom Hanks first

Muh 45 ACP boomer power tom hanks won 2 world wars

Idk release the 2011 and have it either in 9mm or 45 ACP

[opal basin]

yes. i always carry a taser, it really helps especially for missions which require you to arrest at least some suspects. and it helps with the tactical larp roleplay

[forest lichen]

Underbarrel Taser

[somber iron]

run two tasers

[cunning fulcrum]

Is it any useful for hostage situations? Or should I quick throw a flashbang

[cunning fulcrum]

Also should I take taser or pepper spray?

[bitter mason]

Taser

Pepperspray is next to useless rn
Only good against noncompliant civvies

[hexed escarp]

is it just me or is there a problem with invisible trip wires

i checked both sides of the door with the camera, didnt see a grenade, peeked it, and then blew up

[bitter mason]

Do you have any ai mods

[cunning fulcrum]

Also you can tase someone in the back

[tidal isle]

Sometimes, the grenade can glitch and go out of sight. For me I just peek the door. Just double checking. If that doesn't work, get an AI team mate to check the door.

[tidal isle]

From my knowledge, I am pretty sure you can. Always aim for skin.

[cunning fulcrum]

If it's realistic you can ;)

Is there a quick way to bring it up tho? Scrolling is inconvenient and you can't double click 2 fast, you need to wait for the sidearm to come up and then click 2 again

[bitter mason]

You don't need to aim for skin with the taser in ron
Not even body armour blocks it lol

[stone bay]

but body armor absorbs the electric so how does that work

unless people have changed body armor material since the last year

[bitter mason]

In ready or not
not irl

[opal basin]

for hostage situations i just aim good

shoot them in the head

[stone stump]

every map is a hostage situation

[opal basin]

not even kidding that is how i deal with those

[stone stump]

well, maybe except the beach house

[opal basin]

what i meant and what i assumed viske meant was when a suspect grabs a civ and uses as body armor

[stone stump]

and the spider...

[opal basin]

the house in the woods as well

i consider any map with civilians a hostage situation

[stone stump]

either way majority of the maps are hostage situations

[opal basin]

yes

[forest lichen]

kinda?

some are just arrest warrants that just have civs in the area

some are responding to attacks

trying to stop the threat before they do anymore damage

[chilly abyss]

I just wish we had the customisation for multiplayer or solo we had before. Game has been getting boring playing the same thing over and over again

Just wish we could get different game types

[opal basin]

it is impossible to play ron with my friend

he just kills everyone

[shy tulip]

Keel him first

[opal basin]

he always hosts the server because my internet is spotty

[stone bay]

Does the paramedic perk not do anything

[shy tulip]

It has a % chance to save your downed teammate at the end of the round

[dark tartan]

I know how to play the game but I’m pretty new. Like 20 hours or so. Am I going to get bullied if I try to join games or is this place fairly noob friendly.

[frail pier]

No

Most people with a few hundred hours still dont know shit about the game

[dark tartan]

What do you mean?

[frail pier]

They suck lol. I've seen brand new players play better than some people with that time in game. You'll be fine

A lot of lfgs usually have low hour players. Its a pve game so who really cares

Play with your team. Don't be rambo.

[dark tartan]

Which is exactly why playing with my buddy, who is the only other one of my friends who plays Ron, is not fun to play with. Bro shoots everything that moves.

[shy tulip]

The Discord here is generally friendly, but random lobbies are random, trying to answer that question may as well be playing the lotto

[umbral oar]

they either dont care or you get kicked for wearing the hawaiian shirt

[shy tulip]

Seeing people rage over that shirt makes me laugh so hard

[hoary spire]

lmao

[somber iron]

and why do people rage over it?

I am clueless

[amber dock]

People rage over anything, back in the old days of RON I got kicked for wearing HRT uniform

[somber iron]

I used to get kicked for not wearing balaclava (the home invasion ones)

[dark tartan]

Why do people rage over the Hawaiian shirt

[somber iron]

I asked the same question

[shy tulip]

Tacticool gamers when players don't follow their specific aesthetic choices

[soft narwhal]

Same type of people who kick for not wearing appropriate gear are the same type of people who defend and LOVE shitty bodycam mods for "realism" and immersion meanwhile making their game look horrible 🤯

Hawaiian shirt is a great shirt

[amber dock]

but but muh IMMERSION

[soft narwhal]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/575050669682065428/1052165878319435796/Drop.gif

[amber dock]

Best RON meme ever

[hexed leaf]

the flagging is going crazyyyy

also
Armed SWAT my beloved 🥲

[flint karma]

I've noticed an issue with the SPC9 where if you empty a magazine and dry-fire, your iron sights move back and up

[upbeat shore]

[amber dock]

Don't cry Crussong I still love you and your mods

[stable kernel]

HQ, now.

[amber dock]

Who the hell are you?

[stable kernel]

Don't make me post the video

[dark tartan]

I wear Hawaiian shirts every week

[amber dock]

Or what?

[stable kernel]

If you don't, you will be making me cry too

[amber dock]

okay fineee... sryyyy EMAN. returning to HQ

[stable kernel]

Good tortoise

[dark tartan]

How does a body cam increase immersion? Body cams are for viewing an action, not the person actually doing the action

Immersed into viewing a body after the fact?

[amber dock]

makes game look more 'realistic'

[dark tartan]

Yeah, more realistic to a person watching a body cam video on YouTube. Not the cop wearing the body cam lmao

[amber dock]

some people have weird obsessions with Video games and making it as immersive as possible

[stable kernel]

CAG

[dark tartan]

I mean I suppose it is a sim of some sorts

[amber dock]

You have games like Ground branch where you can be so tactical that it's ends up being not funny

[dark tartan]

Ron is a pretty good balance imo

[amber dock]

Yeah

[river tide]

i didnt even know that was a thing, who cares about a shirt

[forest lichen]

if 75th rangers can wear hawaiian shirts and be cool then so can i

[lost inlet]

Bruh

[forest lichen]

this is america damn it, i wear whatever i want when im defending this shit hole city

[lost inlet]

Realism obsessor in a non realistic game

[plain python]

I purposely make the most brain damaging outfits possible with the shirt

[lost inlet]

Based

[plain python]

They should really add a musket to the game as that’s the what the founding fathers intended

[lost inlet]

Pro: one shot everything in the game whether it hit on the body armor or the limbs
Cons: long af and takes like 20 secs to reload another shot

[tiny quail]

would it be funny if i just play both sides and uses a bodycam reshade but fit all my ai teammates in hawaiian shirts

[plain python]

I can load a musket faster then 20 seconds don’t give me that bs

[lost inlet]

You could but the ron swat couldn’t

[forest lichen]

wear 6 camos at once

[plain python]

More realistic if it was 10 seconds

[plain python]

Truth

[lost inlet]

Last time i remember, ron swats player is the second weakest thing in the game

Wouldn’t surprise me that ron swat takes more than 10 secs to reload a damm musket

[plain python]

True tho they kinda slow

[forest lichen]

yeah that's why we should clone judge

[plain python]

It the words of Todd Howard “It just works”

[lost inlet]

Wouldn’t that mean judge is the weakest swat since that’s who we are playing at

[forest lichen]

Yeah but we don't get stressed out or shit

And we have free will unlike the SWAT AI where they need to be commanded

[plain python]

Judge is just mentally unstable yet uses it for good

[tiny quail]

judge is mental and he knows it

[plain python]

Bro the Walter white map a few flash bangs makes those Tweakers go ballistic

[stable kernel]

CIA Judge has no mental game

[tiny quail]

twisted nerve is currently my favorite map solely of the fact that it's one of the few maps where its fairly dark enough that nvgs would be somewhat needed

[stable kernel]

Proper light discipline goes a long way

[dapper fractal]

Hi everyone, new player big fan

love the game, its awsome so immersive the sound and visuals are top tier

my only issue is that sometimes enemy bots in certain circumstances are a little unrealistic, I understand the difficulty, I don't want that to change, however a bot with a balaclava on their head on a rainy night map while I have night vision goggles on and I can barley see them, kill me from several hundred metres away is a little bit questionable.

[bitter swan]

yo

[forest lichen]

yeah AI don't react different even if light sources are different

they basically have built in night vision

[tacit gull]

If you're talking about port then yeah, it's pretty much up to random chance
Most of the time they won't hit the broadside of a barn, other times they might laser you

[lost inlet]

Heya

[runic pelican]

anyone know how to optimize ready or not?

[forest lichen]

there's not a lot of mods for it atm considering we don't have a SDK

https://www.nexusmods.com/readyornot/mods/4279
there's this tho

[runic pelican]

Thanks so much

[stone bay]

Um what's ron discussion?

[lost inlet]

Discussion about ready or not specifically

[stone bay]

Ah that actually makes sense thank u

[lost inlet]

This mod actually improve fps?

[hidden bramble]

its where we discuss Ron, the crackhead who lives in the station bathrooms

[tacit gull]

ron being a crackhead that's going to AA meetings and trying to get better sounds about right

[charred bone]

real

[charred bone]

next purchase if steam support lets me move my account to a different email

[cunning fulcrum]

Is the team lead (me) supposed to be first in last out, enter the room first and take the most hits, or is the leader usually only commanding the squad from behind?

Also, if I order squad to search and secure but they stay where they are, does that mean we have already searched the whole area?

[charred bone]

how to play solo no bots

bots keep ruining my s run attempts

[cursive minnow]

https://www.nexusmods.com/readyornot/mods/4589

Alternatively you can just tell them to stay somewhere.

[charred bone]

thank you

[crude goblet]

people when will the game ever update to be mod compatible

[forest lichen]

https://www.nexusmods.com/readyornot/search/

[crude goblet]

yeah thanks ig

[amber dock]

That’s up to the mod creators not the devs

[tacit gull]

Not true, if an SDK comes out it would make modding way easier

They can also make installing mods a whole lot easier by actually making mod.io work

[nocturne parcel]

im bored give me loadouts to try

[amber dock]

But it’s still at the end of the day the modders job to make the mods compatible with the games. It will be easier if void adds SDK etc. But it’s still modders job. Otherwise it becomes a vanilla thing if void does it all

[native rune]

The in game mod menu being the worst place to do your modding is already a void-done thing

As for the sdk I’ve been hearing people excited for it finally maybe coming out, since before 1.0

[flat sparrow]

you guys think the spread choke is worth recoil or not really?

[jolly verge]

Nope, you already get 30% less spread in ADS and with choke it's will be way too tight

[true panther]

Ironic that shotguns with realistic spread become worse than semi-auto rifles in close quarters. Like, yeah there'll be much more spread with buckshot than with rifle fire but in the context of CQC you still very much need to aim a shotgun unlike most games where you can hipfire and hit an entire room with one shell.

[tiny mountain]

omg fuck I met watchmen again
how is he not banned

[deep quail]

How is the new school map?

Havent played it yet

[lone cloud]

the game is peer to peer, even if the developers wanted to ban people from their game (which would be unbelievably cringe btw) they couldnt as of right now. what they are implementing is effectively a way to block people so you dont end up in lobbies with them anymore

[astral warren]

I don't think many modders are interested in modding this version of the game. The player is taking double the damage they're supposed to because VOID can't remember the order of operations. It would be wasteful to spend time developing a mod around the player dying in as little as 4 shots, despite all rounds striking their steel plate. As it stands right now, ceramic is a direct upgrade to steel, since it stops damage instead of reducing it, and armour damage reduction is the same, but the raw value it must reduce is much larger than it used to be.

That and the new engine version is uninviting at best and discouraging at worst.

[sudden nymph]

any tips on how to beat a lethal obsession?

[tiny mountain]

what you're struggling with? It's one of the easiest maps, only 3 suspects

[sudden nymph]

every time i try to enter a room i got blown up

[tiny mountain]

lmao

[sudden nymph]

wow

[tiny mountain]

peek + crouch to see wire and disable
or use optiwand as long tactical

[sudden nymph]

shii i didnt knw that the ai set out traps tbh

[native rune]

Most traps spawn already set

[sudden nymph]

k

[tiny mountain]

Maple highschool? that one?

[placid granite]

For the unabomber map, use a lot of explosives on doors

[deep quail]

Yes

With the school shooters I think

[forest lichen]

v1 shouldn't you be keeping hell full with blood as fuel

[vague sparrow]

Y'all ever use the SLR47? Is it good cause I never personally used that small AK74u looking gun once. Probably twice I've used

[forest lichen]

it's an AK

what can go wrong with an AK

if a child in somewhere africa can use it, then so can you

[frail pier]

It's bouncy to the side at times but it has the same performance as .300blk while having a slightly higher pen

[forest lichen]

wonder if we'll see more 7.62x39mm rifles

[frail pier]

The SA58 is a "gimmick" weapon for some reason while the SLR47 isn't considered that

[vague sparrow]

There was the G3A3 in RoN but I think you could get it in the PVP. But you could use it in single player with the use of mods. It was hella fun to use in operations and all that shit

The members with the masks in Neon Tomb would sometimes use G3s i think

[dark tartan]

SA58 is insanely good and I can’t be convinced otherwise.

1 tap with JHP on unarmored targets and max 2 tap with AP on the most armored targets. Overpen is an issue but not really with JHP

Overkill, yes. Awesome, yes

[forest lichen]

m249 and m32 rotary grenade launcher mod

Swan "tactically acquired" some gear from the local Army base

[frail pier]

Yeah thats the point

[frail pier]

Btw you can still use JHP on L3 armor and below since it pens first shot with SA58. You only wanna use AP when there are suspects with level 4.

[dark tartan]

ie been using the scar heavy mod. also, how do you tell what level or armor bad guys have

i make reasonable assumptions based on who they are but no idea how to tell exactly what level it is. like meth heads and petty criminals might have level 2 or 3 and the veteran group prob has full, legit armor

no idea what level tho

[manic lark]

Guys, how many map is there in the DLC?

[frail pier]

Here is the BIBLE
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/u/0/d/1d89lpFDA9lo_v13iBlnhtuA6DvuUnKfPaeo0d4RBGJ4/htmlview#

[frail pier]

[dark tartan]

holy fuckin shit this is gonna take days to read

[frail pier]

Do you read 1 letter per minute?

[dark tartan]

no mf but to actually digest this its gonna take a few read thrus

but the specific part i asked about, no obviouly not

[frail pier]

Yeah GL digesting all of that in one go. I still flip to it from time to time.

[dark tartan]

wonder how this was even figured out

[frail pier]

Datamined, Tested ect

[dark tartan]

the armor specifically...trial and error i guess.

[past linden]

Yo, I just joined and I'm new to RoN and I was wondering if there's an older version I can revert to so I can play with mods until there fixed?

[shy tulip]

If a mod is not fixed at this point, it probably isn't going to be fixed and won't be in the future (assuming that it isn't part of the authors backlog)

But yes, you can use steamdb and some trickery to downgrade.

[past linden]

Ah, ok.. I have SteamDB installed but I'm not sure what Manifest ID I need though

[forest lichen]

"don't worry brah this back tracking isn't gonna ruin my game"

can't open the game anymore

[forest lichen]

weird how 300 Blackout is crazy good against armor despite it being a generally heavier and slower round

my thought process is that the 300 Blackout is basically just the .45 ACP of rifle rounds

5.56 being the 9mm of rifle rounds

[carmine moon]

i think i just deleted my save data

dang all i wanted to do was clear my mods

[stone stump]

mfs when reading is required

[cunning fulcrum]

How to clear a room with an open door that is swung up towards your squad? Should you simply run across with your primary pointed inwards so you can neutralize suspects who are right at the door, stack up on the weak side and clear the room as normal?

[forest lichen]

flashbang

[cunning fulcrum]

I know, but I need to pass the open door to get to the weak side. How do I do that

[forest lichen]

if not, probably pie it

by weak side are you in a corner fed room situation

[cunning fulcrum]

I'm asking how to get from the strong side to the weak side when the door is open outwards

I can't upload a sketch what I mean

[forest lichen]

close the door and open the door inwards

think doors in ready or not actually go both ways

[cunning fulcrum]

Won't the suspects go crazy then?

[forest lichen]

don't think so

unless they see you

[cunning fulcrum]

ok

[cunning fulcrum]

Lean would help a lot. What should I bind them to so I can move and lean at the same time?

[forest lichen]

if you want, try using toggle to lean instead of hold to lean, this is if you aren't using those fancy gaming mouses that have the extra buttons on them

[cunning fulcrum]

I currently use toggle lean but there should be a better way... I have 2 thumb buttons but those are for attachment and canted sight

[forest lichen]

try attaching the light/laser gadget to middle mouse

and change your command prompt to ` instead
this is what my layout is like

[cunning fulcrum]

That's for commant menu 😅

[cunning fulcrum]

Not a bad idea actually

[forest lichen]

it all comes down to personal preference honestly

[cunning fulcrum]

I don't have US keyboard, but you mean the key at the left of 1, right?

[forest lichen]

yep

[cunning fulcrum]

Nice

But canted aim then? Or do I replace that with lean

[forest lichen]

idk i never really used canted aim a lot so i put it on o (yes weird choice)

[cunning fulcrum]

Is it better to lean right or left? I suppose right because you hold your weapon with that arm so you can aim without exposing so much of your body

[tiny quail]

tfw after 15 mins straight of paranoid-ly searching every room and finally finishing elephant you get F

[forest lichen]

it all depends on which side of cover/concleament you're using

[forest lichen]

how did you get f

did you kill every civ

[tiny quail]

civilian killed accounting to 6

[cunning fulcrum]

But if I can choose, should I take cover so I lean left or right?

[tiny quail]

and before you ask no, I don't do massacres

[forest lichen]

guess you weren't fast enough since the shooters will start killing civs

[tiny quail]

Yes, 3 mins in or something

[forest lichen]

up to you

[tiny quail]

i was hoping i can get away with probably a few casualties but i was not fast enough

[cunning fulcrum]

But is it simulated that you don't expose that much of your body when leaning towards your weapon side?

[tiny quail]

what kind of bs did the shooters went through to not be dettered when 5 armed swat men surrounded him

[cunning fulcrum]

what kind of pd sends fewer SWAT than suspects?

[forest lichen]

hm good point

[forest lichen]

depression
losing the will to live
nothing left to lose

[forest lichen]

a heavily defunded one

[tiny quail]

wish we can bring in more than like 4 ai teammates but controlling 4 especially on elephant for some reason is already abhorrent enough

this is the one map where they suddenly act up

move and clear
guy in shield suddenly runs through the other door when the other 3 is already piled up on one

[cunning fulcrum]

If it was like IRL with at least 10 swat the game wouldn't be challenging

[forest lichen]

ready or not ai pathing

[forest lichen]

game balancing!!!!!!!!

[tiny quail]

yes but afaik they never do things like that, similiarly? sure but to a less severe degree

oh and rust belt, uhhh interesting map that's practically another excuse to me to bring nvgs in

[forest lichen]

Sicario 1 Tunnel Scene larping

[tiny quail]

oh yeah i heard that level was based off that, i gotta watch that someday

[forest lichen]

you def should

tho
good action set-pieces and story
bad gear

[tiny quail]

i will immediately jump at any chance to use nvgs at missions just because they look cool asf

thats why i had twisted nerve as my favorite map

[forest lichen]

"why do you run nvg's when it's daytime"

"they look cool"

[tiny quail]

beats having no attachment at all lol

but in any other cases, i guess gas mask or anti flash if im feeling simple

[forest lichen]

i would use the ballistic mask but it looks out of place when you're not using the heavy armor models and the earpros clip through it

[tiny quail]

i never use that solely because i use light armor most of the time so the neck is still somewhat exposed, idk just me tho

[forest lichen]

tho it is one of the best protection you can get according to

3 hits of 9mm/10mm/.45 ACP or at least 2 hits from rifle rounds, 4.6, 5.7, 12g slug and .357

[tiny quail]

huh, weird, on that doc its noted that the amount of suspect on elephant is strictly 4, while on my F rank run i mentioned before i got 7 suspects

i mean its definitely in character for the game to add in 3 suspects out of sheer spite

[forest lichen]

probably not updated yet

[tiny quail]

can't have shit in los suenos fr

[cunning fulcrum]

In the apartment mission, how am I supposed to survive heavily armed and armoured suspects with weapons training, and still take 3 of them living? Lol I doubt they would even instruct the SWAT to do that IRL

[tiny quail]

do vanilla ai suspect even has a chance of surrender without any use of taser or pepper spray

[cunning fulcrum]

flashbang

[tiny quail]

i feel like unless you use the likes of that their one braincell activates and will try to gun you down most of the time

[viscid cedar]

It be cool if devs added police dogs to assist us in the game!

[cunning fulcrum]

...would be depressing to see them being gunned down, I have a dog IRL

[tiny quail]

on that note, do you guys think adding recon drone would be too easy?

[forest lichen]

the geneva convention restricts the use of chemical agents in warfare
but cops don't follow the geneva convention

[tiny quail]

the roe leaving my body after getting doortrapped for the 300th time on ides of march

[bitter mason]

how do you fall for door traps 300 times

[tiny quail]

lack of patience

[wheat fiber]

Guys why is running not good and crashing and loading long when I have above recommended specs

Also hai <3

[real raptor]

usually background apps causes performance issues

check for updates also

[wheat fiber]

ok

[real raptor]

drivers and window updates

[summer pivot]

Has there been anything new after the DLC update?

[tiny mountain]

Overall only couple suspects, it's too easy and quick of scenario.
usually it's only 1 suspect and chance of 2 suspects.

many civilians but you don't have to arrest any of them.
during first tries, our team finished it in less than 2 minutes, therefore I'd say it's a boring one.

Anyone got any mod recommendations for hard AI?

[dry cosmos]

i play with my own usually, basically just made them kill you faster, you can try it if you want

[prime wing]

not if you limit its application, like battery or range, but they said drones are not happening

[fervent terrace]

You guys know why the ai in elephant keeps killing random civis its practically impossible to finish

[dry cosmos]

because active shooter

its random af just gotta learn the spawns and shit and then speedrun

[river tide]

that mission is easy

[lean valve]

a guy just died after being shot with a pepperball?

in dorms, i shot them with a pepperball as they were moving through a crevise and they somehow died

my ai squad does all have pepperball guns

[dry cosmos]

lmao

[lean valve]

nevermind the bro faked it lmao

[tiny mountain]

that's what active shooters do, they kill people
are you trying to do it on S?

[fervent terrace]

Yes

But it keeps failing me

[tiny mountain]

You have to rush it
Clear every big corridor, dont stop, breach any locked doors with shotgun, ignore civs and bombs

[fervent terrace]

Ok

[tiny mountain]

once you find suspect, flash and take him alive and repeat for others

once you got suspects focus on bombs

and lastly get the civs and evidence

[fervent terrace]

Ill try

[cunning fulcrum]

Just magdump anything that moves lol. But non-lethal is harder (new player maybe that's why but anyways)

[forest lichen]

this isn't ghost recon brah 💔

[river tide]

oh did you say non lethal if so that’s very hard

[wheat fiber]

still performing bad

[wary summit]

Guys am I the only one who has this issue when I play multiplayer, no matter which voice do I pick it's always Judge's voice?

[old spade]

so when a door is trapped how do you disarm it if you are on the other side?

I feel like very not smart

[tiny mountain]

whichever way you want
Breach shotgun, C2, peek and croutch

choose whichever you like most

[old spade]

ohh ok

I have tried to clear IDES of march like 7 times and keep dying to traps

[stone bay]

Peek every door, before opening. Or check with the wand.

[rare scaffold]

Favorite song in the game?

[dry cosmos]

screams of incapacitated suspects

[turbid basin]

or screams of michael williams

Do installing mods in-game work

[tiny quail]

what 70+ hours of breakpoint does to a man fr fr

[agile bridge]

hi do you think guys that the support edition gear and guns etc. will be locked forever or there is gonna be some dlc for it? (i really like the jpc but i didnt bought the supporter version and now i am sad xd)

[gaunt gale]

That's a hard no fren

Supporter kit will always stay Supporter

[agile bridge]

sucks

could make some more money cuz not everyone have the support edition

[gaunt gale]

It's not about making money though, it's about maintaining a promise to our supporter community. In the far future, there is a incredibly slim chance we may have an edition that grants more exclusive cosmetics, but that is a conversation for much later.

But also, keep this in mind, it would be either closer to the end of RoNs lifecycle or to make something very special

This is also just a marketing guy waffling on about theoreticals, not a roadmap or plan

[loud remnant]

RoN 2 before gta6???

[shy tulip]

RoN 6.9

[prime wing]

this is the biggest issue with the industry

sometimes making money is not the best choice when you alienate everyone

[forest lichen]

if you want the cosmetics, wait for Ballistic to update his Crye Airframe and JPC mod

[eager holly]

True

[radiant zealot]

wish ballistic would update his older stuff : (

[gaunt gale]

I believe Ballistic does take commissions

[radiant zealot]

I am currently broke af rn but I'll def commission him sometime in the future

[stable kernel]

Good luck getting in between all the other requests I am sure they get

And the massive backlog to be updated

[radiant zealot]

I don't mind waiting

[forest lichen]

Yeah but it's not that we want commissions, we just want him to update his outdated mods

[shy tulip]

Commissar?

[radiant zealot]

Hopefully he's doing alright. I believe Vietnam has mandatory military service.

But if I were to commission something from him, it would probably be a ARVN mod, like the ARVN rangers. Either that or Vietnam's Counter Terrorism Unit/SWAT or their modern military SF/SOF units. Would be cool.

[quasi holly]

I have no clue how to play custom maps in ready or not cansomeone help me please? I installed the mod but dont know where to select the map

[umbral oar]

really

[quasi holly]

help pleaseeee

[inner wren]

yo guys is fps fixed yet? or no

[opal basin]

modded maps in regular map selection

[shy tulip]

Those numbers really don't matter in actual gameplay, and if you aren't running NVG, then on some maps yes you will want/need a flashlight.

[quasi holly]

thats not there for me like seriously just those and home invasion there

[opal basin]

maybe you are downloading old maps

[quasi holly]

ones from like a year ago ish wont work?

[forest lichen]

they need to be updated to at least 23rd July 2024

[quasi holly]

damn thanks

[forest lichen]

yea but PEQ15's and M600's look cool

also the stats bible says the deadzone nerf is really negligible and shouldn't be focused on

anyways why was the GM Suppressor nerfed 💔

[shy tulip]

The penalties mean nothing in terms of real gameplay, you could ignore the text and it would change nothing. There isn't really anything to balance besides whether or not you want to use a flashlight

[stone bay]

How many mission experience required do I need?

[forest lichen]

I on know

[stone bay]

Huh?

[silk junco]

he don know

[frail pier]

Modded or something. There is always 4 in vanilla. Always will be with vanilla. These are pulled from the game files. It does not go over that unless you used a mod.

[stone bay]

Ah ok my bad ;-;

[tiny quail]

Ah yes, i used an ai mod, must've affected the suspect count

[latent mist]

it’s not abt stats it’s about playing barbie

[charred rapids]

my game keeps crashing on the 23 megabytes a second mission when i go upsstairs any fix

[lean valve]

any tips on clearing and s ranking narcos?

[agile bridge]

wait he is making airframe?

[forest lichen]

he made an Airframe mod, currently outdated

[charred bone]

game runs so much worse at lowest settings

any fixes?

[charred rapids]

are the devs gonna fix the freezing problem in the mission 23 megabytes a second

[frail pier]

Flash launcher or use gas. There's a bunch of places if you're familiar with spawns you can nade over walls to get them. When it comes to the houses be careful of the windows. It's easy to get fried through those. Clear counter clockwise (first house you hit should be the soft objective one)

Also I remember seeing someone say the angled grip does nothing. Why is that true?

[jolly verge]

Yes, ADS speed stat on combat and angled grip does not work

only optics affect it

[frail pier]

How'd you find that out?

[jolly verge]

Just simple test with value change

[frail pier]

Damn maybe it's placebo to me then. It felt like it was quicker than the vertical grip. I'm gonna test some stuff out here in a bit.

Like I even swapped back to vertical grip and still felt slow.

Now to mention the whole laser thing. Would it be better to just not use one at all? Since you're losing that 15% on deadzone?

[lean valve]

anybodys VKS illuminators not work?

[frail pier]

Swap to a different rifle then back to VKS

Crazy how that's still a thing....

[lean valve]

bruh

thanks

[jolly verge]

Nah they are fine, it's not noticeable with such low values

and it's working only when you moving

[frail pier]

Usually I aim by laser with canted but half the time when I'm animation cancelling off spawn it doesn't turn on. I don't notice till like halfway through a level lol

The laser?

[jolly verge]

deadzone thing

[frail pier]

Ohh yeah the sway

[jolly verge]

it's off from center only when you moving

[frail pier]

So it'd move less without a laser? Even by a small amount?

[jolly verge]

you wont notice it really

That what it's looks like with 1000% https://youtu.be/uCbhLqu8hzQ

[frail pier]

That looks fucking awful

What the fuck then....

Does sights even do anything or nah? I don't ADS anyways but they have that stat too. Granted I don't ever equip one but still.

[jolly verge]

Yes, they do increase ADS speed

[frail pier]

While affecting deadzone?

[jolly verge]

some of them

[frail pier]

Gotcha

[lean valve]

may someone guide me in vc on how to s rank port?

please

[frail pier]

Lots of tacticals and beanbag or pepper

[lean valve]

what would tacticals do

[frail pier]

Flash bangs?

[lean valve]

the place is so open it wouldnt do much at all

its like postal but even more hard

[frail pier]

Flash launcher them? If they get hit by it and you yell it still will work regardless of it being open

[lean valve]

and if they are holding a civilian hostage? im making shit up because im doubting this

[frail pier]

Flash them? Beanbag the hostage takers leg

Bro I've S'd it solo. I'd argue postal is harder than port

[lean valve]

understood

[real raptor]

okay whats ur specs u got?

[lean valve]

bruh i just killed this dude by a launcher

[bitter mason]

be sure they arent faking it

[lean valve]

fair point

[lean valve]

can you guide me somewhere today?

im really struggling with this, moreso than postal

nope it definitely kills them

[frail pier]

Flash launcher? I don't think I've ever killed one with it.

And I usually go for direct impact on their chest with it haha

Hell I've smacked them in the head before and it's been fine.

[lean valve]

i think its because of a mod i have

is there a run you recommend i follow

[frail pier]

Oh maybe.... I don't think I've ever done non lethal on AI mods.

[frail pier]

Are you using AI or True Solo?

[lean valve]

using ai

[lean valve]

i removed it, it was a mod that makes launchers break glass

[frail pier]

You can look up tutorials or something. You could watch Ash's speedrun with AI. He got under 12 mins for his speedrun.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SP_VGpbS6tU

Even he had a tough time but half of it is battling the swat AI itself lol

It's a bit of a double edged sword when you tell AI to search the area. If a suspect shoots at all near you the swat stop. There's a bunch of interactions that can cause the swat to just not listen to you. Maybe that's a good thing since you wouldn't want them to get fucked while restraining.

[lean valve]

also on port, how can the suspects shoot through that weird cement thingy near spawn but i cant?

i really need someone to help me

[frail pier]

You got it man. You can do it lol. Port and Narcos IMO showcase the worst AI interactions. Half the time on port suspects even at close range can just appear out of thin air (I think more of a culling issue on that map)

[lean valve]

so its not just me then

[frail pier]

Just try to use cover as much as you can. Take it really slow.

If you haven't S'd it by later this afternoon I'll help you. I won't be on until then

[lean valve]

it is the afternoon for me, ive been playing since like 11 SAST

i just need you to guide me in vc, im in south africa so ping is alot

[frail pier]

I can't join VC at the moment

[cunning fulcrum]

Flashbang vs stinger

[jolly verge]

Stinger has a bit larger radius, but deal good amount of damage that can incapacitate civi/suspect or kill player if on low health

[cunning fulcrum]

Incapacitate suspect is good, and as long as the civvies survive they should be happy

[lean valve]

holy shit i have done it

[real raptor]

whats yall loadouts?

[tiny mountain]

G36C with 4 mags, couple nine bangers, 2 wedges, one C2 and 2 frag grenades

[wheat fiber]

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660
Intel Core i5-9400F 2.90GHz
16gb of ram

[tiny mountain]

damn

[wheat fiber]

whay

[tiny mountain]

well it's old

[real raptor]

thats more than capable to run the game. but if ur getting fps problems maybe delete some bloatware or reinstall windows

[wheat fiber]

K

[tiny mountain]

how many frames are you getting?
and how many frames do you expect to get?

[real raptor]

tbf its a better machine than mine but im getting mainly 60fps per mission

[wheat fiber]

Im in the police station right now and the highest fps is 90 and the lowest was 31
its staying at about like 60 rn

[real raptor]

try dumping ur quality settings

[wheat fiber]

Its at the lowest

[real raptor]

tbh tho if it is staying above 30 its still playable

[tiny mountain]

police station FPS doesn't matter, to actually test fps select a map in singleplayer and see what fps in there

then change settings in the mission to see if they improve or reduce the frames

judging by your specs you should be getting around 40-50 FPS on smaller maps

[wheat fiber]

its staying at around 60

[tiny mountain]

ok and how many fps do you expect?

[wheat fiber]

Idk

[lean valve]

why would the civilian hit me man doesnt that make them a suspect

[wheat fiber]

Shoot everyone

with a gun

dont warn, just shoot

If you shoot first then you wont get shot

[potent stratus]

I just experienced a civilian kick down the door in front of me and immediately give up

[stone bay]

crazt

[potent stratus]

213 park does shit to you

[placid granite]

That map sucked the first time, very open, dark, lots of enemies

[lone cloud]

best map in the game

most fun map to run pistol only no armor

[astral warren]

It'd be good if suspects didn't get stuck in closets and I had to execute them and violate ROE to keep myself from being softlocked half the time I play it, but yeah, sure.

[dawn frigate]

Yo! VOID. Anyway we can make is so beanbags don't kill after two consecutive shots? Also can you add some rubber bullets so they got the range of a pepperball but the non lethality of the beanbag?

[frail pier]

Huh.... I've shot dudes multiple times when they've been bugged.

Yet they didnt die. They're either faking or you hit them in the head

Bro don't make any sense

[dawn frigate]

maybe my buddy shot him in the face.

[frail pier]

Probably

[dawn frigate]

he claims he didnt

[frail pier]

His claims are false

[dawn frigate]

g2k

[wraith arrow]

I just found out that Judge can die from a fall of no more than 30 centimeters.

[brisk nest]

dude i’m stuck on greased palms this maps so large

[brisk nest]

been stuck on it for the whole day

[stone bay]

i reccomend clearing outside then make your way into the inside from outside then go to the second building

imma try to find a map for you

i cant find a map for it but you need to clear the main entrance and make your way into the room where there are two doors leading the the open area on your far right and right side, but there should be a door on your left, go through there clear it and make your way outside and just clear the parking lot and then into the the big open area and just be careful since u can get shot from anywhere, once you cleared the big open area and the fisa office, make your way to the upstairs office and then to back building.

If you didnt understand heres a small and quick recap:

1. Main entrance -> the place where 2 bathrooms or packages are
2. Bathroom/package room -> the door infront of a bathroom and then to the left
3. move outside to the side and clear outside
4. make your way to parking lot where all the trucks and stuff are and clear that
5. make your way inside the wide area through outside and clear the big area
6. clear big area then move upstairs
7. after clearing main warehouse, move to the 2nd building

you should be done after clearing second building but its kinda hard to explain since i dont have a map of the level.

Anyways goodluck

[forest lichen]

you can use this and post your plan on #🎨ron-screenshots-and-art

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3137562299

[stone bay]

ive seen it but idk if im blind or they dont have greased palms

[forest lichen]

they have every map down to the DLC maps

[stone bay]

ok

[runic pelican]

could anyone have tips to finishing relapse?

[gentle stratus]

• start at the parking lot
• go SLOW, the bombs has a lot of time and you have a lot of map to survive through
• listen carefully for suspect chatter
• mirrorgun will save a lot of stress
• consider downgrading armor to bring extra flashbangs (if you aren't already)
• use the P90 or MP7 because of their high ammo capacity and short length (good for rounding corners)
• know the rooms that usually have a lot of suspects and pre-flashbang them (bomb rooms, morgue)
• pre-flashbang any rooms that you tend to die a lot in
  Good luck, officer

i completed a 2 man S rank of relapse recently, and that is what we did (except replace guns with beanbags)

[forest lichen]

my first attempt on relapse failed because i died to my own stinger nade

oh yeah if you see a patient still in his gowns and is armed, that's Qadamah, take him alive

[runic pelican]

Thanks so much but what type of ammo do you think I should use I use the sr16 and it takes 2 or 3 rounds to take someone down.

[jolly verge]

Depend on map, for relapse you need AP on 5.56

[runic pelican]

Alright thanks

[gentle stratus]

does anyone know if officer resigning matters for The Hermit achievement?

[jolly verge]

Nope, only for dev watch

[river tide]

if you give the beanbag shotgun pepperball bullets then it’s not a beanbag shotgun anymore

[frail pier]

.300blk JHP fucks on relapse.

Takes barely over a mag to do the whole mission

[tiny mountain]

stop shooting heads

[frail pier]

It be like that sometimes

[forest lichen]

is the ap capabilities of .300 blk that good

[frail pier]

No JHP on relapse is so good.

I take that vs AP on that level.

[runic pelican]

How do you clear rooms on relapse

[frail pier]

Good rank/S? Just use tacticals.

Your HVT only spawns in 3 places on second floor

[runic pelican]

Wait don't they have armor

[frail pier]

L3 thats it

Not all of them have it though

[runic pelican]

alr thanks

[winter pendant]

Why is jhp effective against armor? That seems counterintuitive

Makes me wanna do some tests

[runic pelican]

Is jhp better then ap I've been using ap for most of my missions

[winter pendant]

I don't know

[tacit gull]

Not really, on anything other than 7.62 it's gonna get munched up by armor

[merry ledge]

So is non lethal the only way for S rank?

[native rune]

Technically no but shooting around suspects till they surrender isn’t feasible so effectively yes

[frail pier]

It's only 5.56 JHP that sucks against L3 lol

All the other JHP rifle rounds will 2 shot L3 and below. That's why I say only bring AP if you wanna wallbang, using 5.56, or up against L4

Which doesn't make sense to me because idk if those JHP rounds should even pen L3.... You would think it wouldn't but a fucking shotgun slug does in this game

[frail pier]

Against L4 its trash. Besides that its the same amount of center mass shots L3 and below(unless you use 5.56 JHP against it)

[lean valve]

for the hangman, what is meant by bash ?

[cursive minnow]

When you melee with your weapon which by default is binded to your B key.

[lean valve]

why does ron take up like 98% of my cpu in the main menu?

[lavish ravine]

Mine's just in 20s-30s% and I have a 7 year old cpu, so uhh

[lean valve]

apologies, gpu

its something to do with PresentMon

no, its my own nvidia statistics monitor

apologies, again

[frail pier]

What the fuck no

[stable kernel]

Not true, incap counts for 5 points just like dead

[wary summit]

Oops

[frail pier]

You cannot S with death unless you use a mod (Multiplayer officers don't count as long as you report and grab their gun)

[wary summit]

Didn't know ima delete that sorry chat

[umbral oar]

they used to count +35

[wary summit]

well actually ima check that rn cause im curious

[frail pier]

I can't tell you what counts for what. Too many numbers to remember. All I know is S equals no death or incap

[wary summit]

yeah so incapacipated means no death

[frail pier]

Basically dead

[wary summit]

idk ima check that in a sec

[frail pier]

Dude gets shot with a pistol round to the head and is incap? He's a veggie... brain dead is basically dead.

[wary summit]

im doing gas station rn got 2 suspects incapacipated

[lean valve]

how did i not get the hanged man achievement? i am with squad ai, i used 10 taser slots and 15 for flashbangs (slot extender), how did i not get hanged man?

does bash mean the battering hammer or just melee

[shy tulip]

Melee with the taser

[lean valve]

do you have to melee?

[frail pier]

Idk if they fixed it but your swat team can kill everything while you use that load out.

[lean valve]

i know, which is why i am confused

[frail pier]

Just you yourself can only use that. But maybe they fixed it after HE update

[wary summit]

okay you were right I got A+

[frail pier]

Yeah they can't be incap either for S. That goes for civs and suspects.

[lean valve]

use tasers

[frail pier]

Bean bag tf

[lean valve]

theyre good, just low ammo capacity <- the tasers now

[frail pier]

I mean it's 4-5 dudes on gas. The only dangerous one on that map can be the dude with calico.

Calico and uzi fucking shreds

[lean valve]

they couldnt have, i did beat cop like yesterday and i just used that loadout while my squadmates had all f90s

[frail pier]

Ahh okay

[lean valve]

but how could i have not gotten hanged man though?

port is, port hokan, right?

[frail pier]

As long as you only used those items then idk

[lean valve]

i couldnt really have used anything else as they were the only things in my inventory besides a flash launcher which i didnt use

[frail pier]

🤷‍♂️

[lean valve]

okey then

[spark ginkgo]

anyone RON give u a red screen like it's missing somethinh?

[lean valve]

elaborate?

send a pic in #🎨ron-screenshots-and-art

does the launchers count as weapons?

[frail pier]

Can't use it

IIRC it's only flashbang grenades not flash launcher.

Immediately swap to taser the second you spawn

Be sure to bash a suspect though a few times. Even if it's a dude surrendered

[jolly verge]

If you did not get it then you use something else, for hanged man you don't need even do anything or bring taser with flashbang, just let ai kill everyone and you good

[lean valve]

understood

[narrow dew]

uhm guys can anyone here help me out

[lean valve]

the slowmode is long, edit your message

[narrow dew]

im tryna play with my brothers and they have the version 55481 and i have 56549 but we both reinstalled the game?

why do i get a later version and they an older one

[lean valve]

is he using a supporter edition build in steam?

[narrow dew]

nah none of us are

[lean valve]

did they crack it

[narrow dew]

nope we all bought in on steam

[lean valve]

i am stumped

[narrow dew]

yeah me too, this is weird af and idk what to do, which version of the game do yall have?

[lean valve]

56549

[narrow dew]

thanks

[frail pier]

Does it say the same date?

[narrow dew]

no they have august second and i have august 16

[frail pier]

And he checked that it's up to date? And he's for sure not on the supporter branch in the game properties on steam?

If not then genuinely idk

[shy tulip]

One of you is opted into the test branch, opt out.

[narrow dew]

ahhhhhhhh thank you!! they were on the supporter version

[lean valve]

coyote is rust belt, right?

and does complete mean getting every objective including the soft ones or just being able to press y and exfil

also, does a flash count as a weapon

i didnt get way out west achievement and i had no ammo for any other weapon except the magnum

seems like grenades are a weapon

[tacit gull]

anything else is a weapon, including the lockpick

[lean valve]

no way

[lean valve]

youre joking?

[tacit gull]

no

[tacit gull]

you can use the AI to breach in if a door is locked

aswell as the kick, no ram

[lean valve]

holy fashizzle

[tacit gull]

you can just use the ai to clear the level for you since its mostly just 3 straight lanes, but real chads use the one shot kid mentality 😎

[lean valve]

what could i have done different

i kicked no where, i had only magnum jhp rounds

[jolly verge]

what else did you use from loadout?

[lean valve]

i didnt, i just shot, reloaded, moved to the next door and shot

i didnt kick the door, there was no ramming any door, and if there was forcefully opening a door it was with my ai's c2

[jolly verge]

you did not use any lockpick or shield?

[lean valve]

no

does mirrorgun count as a weapon

[lean valve]

wait, just normally lockpicking something?? without the tool, just lockpicking a door as usual

[jolly verge]

yes

[lean valve]

NO FUCKING WAY

[frail pier]

Use ur lamborfeeties

[tacit gull]

💀

[jolly verge]

lockpick is always in your loadout

[lean valve]

but then why would they add another deployable slot to use it, again??

[jolly verge]

it's faster

[lean valve]

fair point

[frail pier]

When you wanna be "Stealthy" against RoN AI

[lean valve]

so, can you even get the way out west achievement in true solo?

[tacit gull]

Yes

[frail pier]

Yea

[tacit gull]

You're fucked if your leg is broken though

[frail pier]

Bro wtf is up with this slowmode

[lean valve]

but i thought kicking a door is a weapon

[tacit gull]

i don't think you'd be able to get through locked doors yourself if it was

[frail pier]

If that was the case then it becomes an RNG nightmare for unlocked doors

[tacit gull]

or well you could just shoot the doors untill they break

But that's a LOT of ammo

[frail pier]

True but idk how many pistol rounds it is to break a wooden door. With rifles it's like 4 or something no matter what corner you shoot.

[stable kernel]

at everyone: #👮ron-discussion is now liberated from the oppressive 15 second slowmode

[frail pier]

You didn't @ everyone. Here I'll do it after this message

Sike

[stable kernel]

Nuh uh

[tawdry trench]

man since when did suspects on 23 megabytes a second fight like trained insurgents, I just got ambushed by 4 of em on the top floor

[stone stump]

yes

[mild stag]

Played this for the 1st time today and totally addicted.

[stone stump]

no worries, the game has like 10 hours of content

[amber dock]

Don’t steal my line

[stable kernel]

Nuh uh

[amber dock]

Okay now it’s war

[stable kernel]

All I have to do is slowly walk away

[amber dock]

Shit

He’s figured out my army’s biggest weakness

[wheat fiber]

Can you use a regular shotgun as a breach shotgun

to shoot the hande

of door

[silk junco]

wth dont steal mine

[silk junco]

no

[amber dock]

Oh yeah forgot you came up with that line

[real raptor]

Quick question. I’m playing the supporter alpha of Ron but it saying I have the home invasion dlc without owning it

What does it mean as in do I get access to the dlc or no

[plain osprey]

yep. supp edition owners get the DLC for free.

[real raptor]

Ah okay thank you. I just didn’t know because it says I can play the home invasion stuff but I just didn’t know if I could yk

[wheat fiber]

What if you could pick the bullets you dumped from the revolver off the ground🤯

[wheat fiber]

Or better yet

just like keep the bullets that havent been fired in the revolver

🤯🤯🤯

[acoustic ridge]

if u shoot a wooden door enough with any gun you can breach it

[lone cloud]

yes but its way worse than it should be

[coarse robin]

Is this game coming to console

[torpid briar]

It would be cool if it is

I joined a public lobby for the first time and I hear two guys, one with a voice changer (Annoying as hell) and another guy who is normal. They were for some reason saying how bad my character looked (I was wearing the full '99 swat gear). Once we loaded in the map they just decided to kill me. They didn't even make 1% relapse because they were so ass. The guy restarted the match and tried to kill me again. I killed them both before they can do damage to me and then they kicked me. I love it!

[acoustic ridge]

use the discord lfg, its alot better than public

[floral condor]

any way to get better FPS?

[torpid briar]

The way I got better FPS was by cleaning my PC, deleting old games, verifying gamefiles and overclocking my GPU. But cleaning your PC and deleting old games would do you good

Before I did all of that I was lagging to hell

[floral condor]

Dang, I'm past all of those steps

theres no hope

[gentle stratus]

are tasers allowed for Beat Cop achievement?

[amber dock]

No, only pistols, lethal ones

[gentle stratus]

👍 just got it with revolver only

[amber dock]

Nice

[vague spire]

Anyone having the ump-45 reload animation clipping inside the weapon?

[gentle stratus]

nope

[gentle stratus]

what can cause Meldonin to fail? i had 16/17 suspects reported and one player dead, also didnt get drug supplies

i got 4:25 on time for the achievement

and didnt get it

Bring Order to Chaos and Secure Civilians were ticked off

nvm got it after second run, buggy achievement

[stone stump]

you shouldn't be playing on supporter alpha. in most cases it gets you an outdated version of the game

[stone stump]

how did you "clean" your pc?

[torpid briar]

Like old files from 2 years ago

Deleted old files

[stone stump]

extremely unlikely to gain fps from freeing disk space, because it would have to be an ssd and it would have to be nearly full, and even then even the reduced speed would be plenty enough

[torpid briar]

I use a HDD

But it worked for me

So idk

[stone stump]

did it? have you tested the fps after the cleaning or after doing everything else too?

[torpid briar]

It's not just FPS, I got a lot of stutters before doing so

And I played on the lowest settings

And I'm talking unplayable type stutter, stuttering every time I get shot at and stuttering when I just move around the map

[stone stump]

stutters are directly related to fps

but i would be thankful if you answered my question, just curious

because it's a common pattern to do n things, say doing n things helped but not actually checking every thing separately

[torpid briar]

Well I'm telling you that whatever I did worked for me,

Because I had unplayable stutters

[stone stump]

so all things considered only one, 3 or all things could've helped

[torpid briar]

Deleting old files/applications, deleting games I don't play anymore, overclocking my GPU.

Before, I couldn't even play on low without getting unplayable stuttering and FPS drops

[stone stump]

i know, but have you checked the fps after doing just the cleaning or after doing everything else too?

[torpid briar]

Wdym by checked? Yes I checked my FPS and it boosted

No stutters

FPS is stable

[stone stump]

specifically just after the cleaning, without doing the rest of the stuff you did, very important

[torpid briar]

The rest...

All together

Not just cleaning the PC because I did all of them together one after another then hopped on game

[stone stump]

in programming's world it would be called debugging worst nightmare. sure the issue got fixed, but what was the point if you don't know what actually fixed it?

[torpid briar]

I'm just saying what I did to get my FPS fixed, it's not a end all problems.

[stone stump]

you don't know what fixed your fps, just what you did and that it did improve in the end*

[torpid briar]

If you really want to get technical, yes I don't know what fixed my FPS but I did delete old files/applications, delete old games and overclocked my GPU to fix my FPS. And it did.

[stone stump]

yeah, i know that and it's good your issue is solved, no need to repeat yourself as im talking about different stuff
-# also literally correlation doesn't imply causation

just something to keep in mind, not wise to say what you said, because someone might think doing all of these steps are necessary

[torpid briar]

That's why I said in the beginning of my sentence "The way I got better FPS..."

[stone stump]

at least in this case it won't do any harm at least (and probably even help overall)

[torpid briar]

I would assume that if someone sees "The way I..." it may or may not work for them either

[stone stump]

and in the same sentence you also said "would do you good"

[torpid briar]

Okay what's wrong with that?

[stone stump]

implies it would do someone good, which may or may not be true

[torpid briar]

Okay if you wanna be a technical man yes

[stone stump]

just correct, that's all i need

[torpid briar]

Correct what

[stone stump]

in my case correct person

[torpid briar]

What

[tacit gull]

what happens if you aren't?

[stone stump]

nothing

but it's satisfying when things are just correct

[tacit gull]

Honestly right now outside of upgrading your pc if the game runs poorly i'd say just wait and pray the next update runs better and not worse 💀

[torpid briar]

Unreal Engine 💀

[tacit gull]

insurgency sandstorm at release

nuff said

[stone stump]

and in this particular context it reminds of poor debugging, so it is what it is

[stone stump]

tfw upgrading your pc components might change nothing

[tacit gull]

I can't be sure what it is exactly but ron reeks of tech baggage

[stone stump]

years of tech debt layered over

[tacit gull]

arma be like

Yeah, stuff that was sloppily implemented, sloppily taken out that now needs to be reinterpreted in order to properly make it work or remove it

[lost inlet]

anyone know what is the name of the default gas mask irl?

[torpid briar]

Looks like a variation of a CBRN riot gasmask

[lost inlet]

think it's called MSC90 M&P gas mask

[torpid briar]

Looks like it, doing a cosplay?

[lost inlet]

just curious

[torpid briar]

Aye 👍

[turbid basin]

White or green phosbhor?

What you use

[violet wave]

Did not play since 1.0 release.
Did they ever fix the superhuman AI, pathing or tracking behind cover?

[tacit gull]

The AI got nerfed massively since 1.0

[river tide]

green it looks cooler

[silk junco]

white looks more cag

[mild stag]

Quick question how do I arrest a suspect that’s just shooting at me and not following commands?

[river tide]

non lethal weapons

[mild stag]

Thank you. New to the game just noticed the tazer.🤙🏻

[river tide]

beanbag shotgun is also very good

[mild stag]

Thank you

[pure rose]

Or tear gas, flashbangs and flash bang launchers, stingers, tasers, pepper spray, beanbag shotgun, and either of the pepperball guns

[mild stag]

Ok tried flash bang had no effect. Appreciate that. Check my load out better before deploying.🤙🏻

[violet wave]

Store claims 1060 6gb for recommended requirements.
To clarify, are those for minimum settings?

[tacit gull]

I dont know if i would trust those right now, game's pretty bad optimisation wise

[violet wave]

Weird, because moderator on forum claims that requirements are fine, game works fine and it's "specific users" that are having performance issues

[tacit gull]

I don't have the best PC, but this game does not look or play well enough for it to be running this bad on my rig

[cloud comet]

In reality just gas the shit out of them

[pure rose]

I like flashbangs personally, they always work realistically for me

[cloud comet]

POV the suspects finally get their hands on anti flash goggles

[pure rose]

Lmao, i worked with flashbangs before and the main role is as a concussion device so in reality all they would need is peltors and they would be fine, the flash is just a "extra distraction" unless your looking right at it

[cloud comet]

Ear pro 🔥🔥🔥

[copper cypress]

Have any of you noticed that ROE has been changed?

[amber dock]

No, roe is still the same. Fire if you’re fired upon

[copper cypress]

I pepper-sprayed a suspect who was pretending to be dead and was convicted of unauthorized use of force ==

[amber dock]

I’m sorry what?

[copper cypress]

I remember there was no problem doing this in previous patches.

A suspect who faked his own death. I used pepper spray on him but it triggered an unauthorized use of force.

[amber dock]

Changed or not, that’s just uh

[copper cypress]

lol

[pure rose]

You're pepper spraying a surrendered suspect how do you think that would go irl?

[torpid briar]

Was he restrained?

[copper cypress]

No

[copper cypress]

But he was lying on the ground, and I wasn't sure if he was still alive and ready to attack me😂

[pure rose]

Yeah but think about it irl because that's what the devs do

[broken cedar]

do i have to finish the campaign to play mod maps?

is there a workaround, like a savefile i can download

[forest lichen]

go to quick play

when you pick a map

go to the top left and there should be a section called modded maps

[strange briar]

i havent played RON in a while is the DLC worth getting?

[sharp swan]

has anyone else got into the lobby with that freak spamming bible versus

im suprised he is still around

[strange briar]

people still do that?

[sharp swan]

same guy

[prime wing]

you get three maps. You can play them for free if you join someone that owns it

[mild stag]

Damn this game is fun.

[wooden prawn]

It is but it starts to get dull once you beat the game and play the same maps multiple times

They need a system for replayability such as procedurally generated maps or something similar

Even if it is different layouts of the same map

[mild stag]

Yeah I could see that.

[frail pier]

Shader cache size to unlimited gave me decent boost. But idk wtf that even does lol.

[mild stag]

I do see they move suspects and civilians around a bit.

[frail pier]

When I did a full wipe including saves it made the game run so much smoother.

I can stream, record while playing and still have really good fps

Before couldn't even play the game without stuttering like fucking wild

[wooden prawn]

You learn the layout of the rooms and where suspects can spawn , what type of suspects and how they react

[frail pier]

^

You know where they're at because of where they aren't.

[wooden prawn]

And updates seem to take a while so there is that aspect as well

[frail pier]

No dudes lower floors on neon? You're gonna have a fun time clearing top and pools

[mild stag]

Good to know I used a gift card so didn’t cost me much for whole bundle.👍🏻

[bitter mason]

if you have them downloaded and they arent showing, then dont use the ingame mod menu, its broken
use nexus mods instead
And of course make sure the mods are up to date before installing them

[smoky forum]

I know this has probably already been said..... but we need RON on PS5 so bad...... We dying on console all the AAA studios have forgotten how to make a dark and gritty shooter.

Well Activision remembered in 2019 with MW2019 but forgot in 2020 and every year since then.

[radiant zealot]

Same here unc

Nah I'm just playing, but for real though, wedges are a must

I like to wedge all doors/exits leading to the outside so I can trap any suspects inside the building and stop any suspects from coming inside.

Have you played the new threat of war modded map btw?

[wooden prawn]

I never use door wedges

[radiant zealot]

Well I usually play solo with AI Teammates so I don't really have anyone pulling security haha. Best I can do is split my AI into two groups. Red can handle breaching and Blue can guard my rear. But that only leaves two people doing breaching which is less than desirable 😅

[astral warren]

They should focus on making the player not take roughly double the damage that's intended first, I think, but yeah, levels are super stale, I suppose the big ones there's more variables and more variety, but I fall asleep hobbling around like I've shat myself trying to find the last civvie in a closet somewhere anyways.

[rare scaffold]

I use wedges all the time, they are a lifesaver for helping divide and conquer

Also I am stuck on Greased Palms again

[wooden prawn]

I really only play solo

Ai tho could use a revamp tho

[radiant zealot]

yeah, sometimes they do stupid things lol

terrible tbh

its better than before at least

yeah haha, I like the idea tho

[junior sinew]

Привет

[radiant zealot]

Здравствуй, мой друг

[junior sinew]

👍

[radiant zealot]

idk if you know the creator but someone made a comment saying he was banned here or something

he went by a different username apparently

[junior sinew]

Ксемакс, играешь в реди ор нот?

[radiant zealot]

Не прямо сейчас

He only has one map though?

Oh sorry nvm I was wrong

[junior sinew]

Понял, ну приятно увидеть русскоязычных )

[radiant zealot]

О, я не русский, ха-ха.

threat of war is fine clientside wise but there is some problems with the AI

[junior sinew]

Ааа

[radiant zealot]

tell me what you think of it when you do, I want to see if others have the same issues as me

[rare scaffold]

Please help, I am stuck on Greased Palms

What the hell do i do?

[radiant zealot]

Yo that map was aids ngl to you, I got frustated with my AI so I just ran solo with it tbh

[junior sinew]

Не знаешь ли, Ксемакс, есть ли капитаны, интересующиеся бойцами, для тактической игры

[rare scaffold]

Is there a way to just skip it

[radiant zealot]

Извини, я в этом не уверен.

[stable kernel]

English only in this server @radiant zealot @junior sinew

[radiant zealot]

wdym?

[junior sinew]

Понял

[deep rain]

Atfter 150h of RON I just realized how easy the game is if you just use AI with all silencer JHP and never use flashbangs or similar to keep enemy stress low. Storming a room usually makes half of them surrender on sight.

[rare scaffold]

I just want to skip the mission, go to the next one

[radiant zealot]

I mean you can do that in multiplayer

[junior sinew]

@stable kernel а где можно писать на русском?

[deep rain]

imho greased palms is the 2nd best map after hotel

[rare scaffold]

I bet it is, but I like less lethal

[radiant zealot]

Ты не можешь, извини.

[junior sinew]

👌🏻

[radiant zealot]

I like the atmosphere for hotel

if someone could make a mod replacing the swat with Gotham's swat it would literally be perfect

[nova gust]

anyone ready for halloween dlc in RON?

[radiant zealot]

and make the suspect joker's henchman

[radiant zealot]

there will be a halloween dlc??!

[nova gust]

i hope there will be

maybe kaminsky's lurking and will confirm in a comment that denies nothing

[meager island]

does anyone have any tips for valley of dolls, I been at it for a while and I can't seem to beat it

[dull thorn]

Hello Er'body

[silk junco]

erbody

[upbeat shore]

[radiant zealot]

Which part are you struggling with?

[meager island]

its tough to say, I've tried multiple dif entry points but theres always just an unexpected guy in a random corner that kills me

[radiant zealot]

Are you playing solo or what?

[meager island]

yeah solo

[radiant zealot]

Hm okay then. What's your loadout? And are you going non-lethal or lethal?

[meager island]

im trying to go non-lethal but at this point ill take anything, I run heavy armor with like 5 smoke bombs, all my teammates have beanbag shotguns and more smoke bombs

[radiant zealot]

Wait I thought you said you're going solo? Teammates?

[meager island]

yeah as in, the bots

[radiant zealot]

Oh okay mb you were confusing me a bit haha

[meager island]

mb shoulda clarified lol

[radiant zealot]

So if you're running with bots, have them run heavy armor just because sometimes they're stupid so they might need the extra armor. I highly recommend you run light armor personally. Smoke loadouts are a good idea for non-lethal so keep that.

Here's what you can do. You can have one guy run breacher and one guy run shield (you can have your shield guy deploy his shield at any time even if you're not breaching), I like to make that my red team. Blue team could be support, have them run smoke, sting, flash launchers or just the grenades themselves. Make sure they have a lot of it because if you're having trouble with suspects in corners that kill you, you could pre-smoke, flash, or sting that area before you peek or move in. That's why I recommend you run light armor because you can carry more shit. Just have your guys move in/breach whenever they can, let them bare the hits, keep yourself alive. Also have two of your guys run beanbag shotguns but the other two run pepper gun rifles. For me personally when I did non-lethal for this map, I just ran with a shit ton of smoke and just basically smoked every single room lmao.

When I get to the big room (which is where most people seem to have a lot of trouble, I try my best to immediately wedge off all the exit doors. I'll deal with the outside guys later. Then I go upstairs again and clear that. What I usually like to do is have blue team run security and watch the stairs and wedge the second room until I clear the first room upstairs. Once I clear all of upstairs I move downstairs via the other stairs (not the stairs located in the wide area) and clear downstairs from there.

I personally like to clear the outside areas via the exit door that leads to the minicamps and whatnot. You only have to what out for your left side that way. I would also clear garden area last before I clear basement. Idk if you run mods but if you don't, run flashlights for basement since its kinda dark.

Overall just go slow. You know what they say, slow is smooth and smooth is fast. There's no bomb or anything so no need to rush, you can afford to take your time.

[radiant zealot]

And if you notice you're still running out of grenades and launcher ammos, just have your guys run light armor then. You yourself can run shield so you can peek corners to see if there's any enemies for areas/places where it doesn't give you an option for your bots to clear it.

[radiant zealot]

lol mb, didn't mean to make it that long

[radiant zealot]

Or you can run mirror gun. I don't personally like to use it but you can do whatever you want lol

[meager island]

Ty this is really helpful, I should probably use wedges for doors more often lol

[stable kernel]

Bunch of yappers in this discord I swear

[meager island]

It was very helpful :c

[radiant zealot]

Yea man, they're helpful. It's important to have area control. That's just my opinion at least.

[radiant zealot]

bro's mad that people talk in a discord server lmfao

[meager island]

Ty for the tips, I’ll probably give it another shot in a bit

[stable kernel]

It's a joke

[radiant zealot]

yeah ik I was just playing around lol

[radiant zealot]

tbh I didn't like running bots in this map either

[radiant zealot]

I just went with my friends most of the time

[meager island]

I might give that a shot tbh, it might be easier

[radiant zealot]

Yeah if you guys know each other well, it'll be way easier than having to command a bunch of stupid bots lol

[meager island]

Lmao

[compact sequoia]

hello is replay fixed

[covert meteor]

i stg this games dead now

no good mods coming out

[lost inlet]

Idk, ever since i started seeing custom gun coming out on nexus instead of just reskin, i thought the game was somewhat saved by the modders

[shadow acorn]

man Elephant is hard

you really got to move quick

[stable kernel]

Modders are people too, and they will probably only work on stuff for the game when they find it interesting. Which is the problem currently in between DLC's with no updates

[runic pelican]

Any tips for hdie and seek???

[forest lichen]

My name is Entry Team, yo
My superior is TOC, yo
Yeah, uh huh
He allowed me unauthorised use of deadly force

[lost inlet]

How i look when the civi just takes their phone out of their asses to takes a picture of me instead of getting on the knees(planning to put a 9mm inside their head)

[stone bay]

Anyone have an issue where they can't turn on their light? I rebound the key, still nothing :/

[noble pasture]

Can Swat AI clear rooms now?

At release on DLC 1 update they kept turning their backs on uncleared angles

[tacit gull]

I dont think that has been fixed

Turning their backs on uncleared angles is one thing, pushing into rooms backwards is another

[noble pasture]

Oh I remember that one too

A Swat AI died cause he pushed a room backwards

[tacit gull]

Atleast with uncleared angles they gave you the ability to micromanage (even though that shouldn't be a need)

[noble pasture]

A shield officer makes things easier

I can not use the shield because I can barelly aim as it is, shield aiming point is offset to the ground

If you put a dot on your screen, the laser pistol aims downwards

[tacit gull]

I dont use a shield officer since them just equipping and unequipping the shield like morons often just ends up in them wasting time or dying because they dont return fire

[noble pasture]

Can they at least cover your back if you breach a room?

[fervent terrace]

do yall know what to do with the bombers in neaon tomb im trying to s tier

[noble pasture]

Tazer their ass. The taser has 100% surrender chance

[fervent terrace]

you sure?
