[frail pier]

Send a message? Idk

[noble pasture]

That would be an ecologic disaster

[weak kindle]

or blow something up that causes damage to the scale of deepwater h orizon

[fickle totem]

No one said bio terrorists were smart

[frail pier]

They drove what looked like a gas guzzling van in lawmaker. Why didn't they ride in on bikes?

[tiny quail]

man we got all kind of terrorists, salty veterans, disgruntled guys from Yemen, and now bio terrorists

[noble pasture]

D Platoon got sent into more combat ops than actual military vets

[tiny quail]

what's next, aliens?

[frail pier]

Go check out dorms.

[fickle totem]

We goin to mars and clearing out invader zims

[tiny quail]

don't have the dlc

[wispy ember]

damnit dlc leaked

[noble pasture]

Hmm, bio terrorists might be a new faction rising due to gas shortages

[fickle totem]

NASA uniforms would go hard

[noble pasture]

Also how in the balls do you have a gas shortage?

[weak kindle]

no power to refine oil perhaps?

[tiny quail]

what the fuck did Los Suenos do to get to this point man 😭

it's like one disaster after another between mere days

[noble pasture]

I think for once it might not be the fault of humans

We keep getting natural disasters

[frail pier]

Nah still humans

Issue wouldn't exist if they didn't exist

[weak kindle]

not really.. I suspect we're just pulling down a zipper to reveal how we got there..but where we re going?

[tiny quail]

well nature wouldn't encourage gang members to raid home cough cough Home Invasion style wouldn't they

[coarse osprey]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BbxznEErPZQ

[noble pasture]

So from the trailer they executed 5 hostages on the minimum

Entry team, guns hot. We arent making arrests

[tiny quail]

i dont think any job profession is safe atp in ls if they're gonna keep raiding every bloody place

from gas station worker to fucking oil rig

[coarse osprey]

this makes me wanna buy a new pc so badly

[wispy ember]

thats it,join lspd

[noble pasture]

Those terrorists must be real stupid

If they get caught alive they get charged with at least 5 murders

Thats easy life sentence or the chair

[tiny quail]

last mission have them raid their own police headquarter

they holding chief hostage

[wispy ember]

alright we have ideas for another dlc,mars raid,lspd hostage rescue

[noble pasture]

Oil Rig B rank speedrun?

[desert pollen]

Why do I keep losing connection from host?

[tiny quail]

does b rank mean kill all no unauthorized penalty

[wispy ember]

they leave or its connection issue

[desert pollen]

Damn

Well I guess I gotta deal with it

[wispy ember]

nvm

[noble pasture]

Yes, B is lowest you can get while following RoE and killing suspects

[wispy ember]

i read it wrong

[wispy ember]

yea can feel you

[tiny quail]

"erm sir, i did it in self defense, that man was shooting me with a pistol so i magdumped him, clearly no unauthorized use of force at play"

[desert pollen]

"entry team, stop breaking your RoE" my favorite line in the game.

[fleet minnow]

They're eco terrorists, they wanted to make a statement by seizing an oil rig, I don't exactly know what their motives are for now, but if this is to save the environment they sure as hell are just making things worse by killing workers who don't get paid shit.

[noble pasture]

From trailer they hanged 5

[wispy ember]

they brought pistols to a swat raid, their problem:)

[tiny quail]

pls tell me the hanged 5 already happened by the time we start i don't want to do another active shooter mission

[fleet minnow]

Yep, it seemed like one guy had kids.

[noble pasture]

TOC, going lethal

[wispy ember]

most of them probably had,well not a first time in that game

[tiny quail]

"Sorry working class joe, chose the wrong line of work" says the eco terrorist

[fleet minnow]

disables body camera

[noble pasture]

Death is sometimes the only fair sentence to some people

[bright reef]

Any idea what the new GA51 gun is based on?

[noble pasture]

Let god sort them all

[fleet minnow]

1 5.56 round to the head solves plenty of problems.

[tiny quail]

eco terrorist group vs 5 man squad with no regards for human life

[weak kindle]

cheddar, I found a mini G3 but I also found a Turkish shotgun which is....ugly..

[noble pasture]

"I never killed a human, I have killed scumbags" - My Judge

[bright reef]

yeah saw the same shotgun. will be the mini g3 that was in one of the other promo photos

[fleet minnow]

I sometimes forget that Judge is actually married.

[noble pasture]

Married and has 3 daughters

[tiny quail]

that yell for compliance will be the last thing they heard

[fleet minnow]

Aw, thats wholesome.

[noble pasture]

You can read their names on the kids bracelet cosmetic

[wispy ember]

kinda not confirmed,the kids names can be from other places,like a gift

[tiny quail]

"Mom, where's Dad?"

"Oh don't worry honey, the usual, he's off fighting eco terrorist at an oil rig this time."

[noble pasture]

He wouldnt wear them if from random kids

[fleet minnow]

Kaminsky! Give us USIA gear!

[wispy ember]

but he can wear random bracelet from neon club?

and we save kids in different locations

[noble pasture]

Hmm, then he is at least married?

[fleet minnow]

In this case the bracelet is sort of to allow entrance to the neon nightclub.

Perhaps he goes out with his team.

[noble pasture]

"Sorry Swat team, no bracelet"

[tiny quail]

ah fuck wrong reply

[tiny quail]

the same way you can pull up to Amos Voll's house in a hawaiian shirt

[noble pasture]

Show me your potatoes stash

[opal basin]

Dang it. We can stop the terrorists some other time.

[tiny quail]

btw will the dlc drop also come with the qol features shown before?

[opal basin]

Yea

[wispy ember]

i believe too,but in early trailers judge have connections with MLO and we dont know about his mental statement,and how it goes in life. like if he was able to pull a woman and start a family successfully

[fringe plover]

hah, this conversation is going places

[fleet minnow]

I feel like D Platoon should be a bit larger...

[opal basin]

One random feature will be removed because fuck us

[noble pasture]

Now swat team does a piruete every time they enter a room

[tiny quail]

if it means i can wear nvgs and gas mask at the same time without mods, worth it

[noble pasture]

Is Judge a highly functioning psychopath?

[tiny quail]

depends on how you play him

[wispy ember]

real

[fleet minnow]

His prior job in the USIA is very suspect.

[noble pasture]

He doent get affected by taking lives while on the job

Unlike his colleagues

[fleet minnow]

If we see the RoN trailer he clearly gets affected to the point of going into therapy.

[tiny quail]

yes, i kinda want more ai teammate on solo

[noble pasture]

Is that Judge?

[fleet minnow]

Yep.

[wispy ember]

send players to therapy

[fringe plover]

btw, that was one GREAT trailer

[fleet minnow]

It's Judge.

[fringe plover]

chills

[tiny quail]

more micromanaging but if it means i pull up to greased palms in a 9 man squad so be it

[opal basin]

So does every other squadmate

[fringe plover]

shame it was cut while revealed

[opal basin]

Void should make the animations more zesty

[noble pasture]

Hmm, the psychiatrist does address the player "If you need a talk come see me"

[opal basin]

A little tickle when cuffing a suspect

[wispy ember]

the places are kinda tight

[fringe plover]

Wonder if we will see this level of cinematic any time soon

[fleet minnow]

The Streamer Trailer was funny as heck though.

[tiny quail]

perhaps editable teammate count per mission?

[noble pasture]

So both Adam trailer and ingame dialogue suggests Judge does receive therapy

[tiny quail]

like for example 9 on sins of the father and like just 4 on ends of the earth

[opal basin]

Yeah.

[noble pasture]

Also it seems our therapist cares

[opal basin]

Also judge isn’t just some psychopath, see the dialogue in port hokan? He knows something is up, and is hesitant to go through

[noble pasture]

He doesnt half ass his job, he can get officers back in the working condition with time

[opal basin]

Yeah

[wispy ember]

personally im fine with 4 teammates,it would be chaotic to fit in some rooms even on large maps, complicated too to manage actions

[fleet minnow]

Wished my irl therapist was like that.

[opal basin]

Yes.

I just really want do not engage and non lethal only commands

[wispy ember]

sometimes i wish i can manage units more closely like in door kickers 2,to make them clear room while they watch in dangerous spots or some shit,i know you can command each unit to look at one side but it will override the breaching command

[opal basin]

Huh, I don’t have Doorkickers 2

Action squad is really good though, 2d ready or not

Recommend

[rotund kayak]

i've spent the last half hour of my life searching for this last suspect on 213 Park holmes, I am about to tweak

[noble pasture]

Wait for the 1.0 update

[wispy ember]

true,the dk2 is just a better version of first game

[noble pasture]

The devs are slower than a sloth when it comes to updates

[opal basin]

1.0? I remember seeing ads of it in action squad like 2 years ago

[opal basin]

Well action squad is completely different and not the first game

[wispy ember]

yup,i understand

[rotund kayak]

just decided to kill a civ so I can unlock the kill me command steam achievement

[opal basin]

Often times things don’t go on sale when they just released, even if there’s a big steam sale, will dlc2 go on sale during Christmas or not since it would be so new

[umbral oar]

lol

[shy tulip]

ehh

There's something about DK2 that just doesn't feel as good as DK1, I'm not sure how to phrase it really.

[rapid canopy]

anyone have any idea when the next update's dropping?

also door kickers is fire

[fleet minnow]

I think it's because DK1 feels more fluid/snappy.

[wispy ember]

i meant the flexibility

[rapid canopy]

very nice

i hope they fix the weird crashing

[shy tulip]

that was fast

[rapid canopy]

man i gotta play DK2 again

[shy tulip]

I wonder

[blazing glade]

Dk country 3 I know people always talk about 1/2, but the 3 hit me some nice feelings (are we talking about donkey Kong, right?)

[wispy ember]

of course xd

[shy tulip]

https://tenor.com/view/dk-nintendo-donkey-kong-gif-4472496

[gaunt gale]

Don't lead on poor Alan

[tiny quail]

Yeah i can see your point, i guess im just a disgruntled dumbass tired of micromanaging 4 swat guys for the last 95 hours

[fleet minnow]

Ever a fan of Banjo-Kazooie?

[blazing glade]

Didn't played much,but it's cool

[stone bay]

Ready or not more like hard or not

[shy tulip]

Skill or not

[stone bay]

Mid or not

[wispy ember]

sometimes can feel you lol

[sly nest]

I just got hit with a realisation...
We can equip everyone with a .308 gun and they can have a different one each

The .308 madness

[stone bay]

I dont get it

[sly nest]

Everyone gets a unique .308 for the meme

[tired jungle]

What the fuck

[sly nest]

since now that 3 were added, we got 4 with the SA-58, one for each member

[shy tulip]

But there's 5 per team

[sly nest]

...that moment when you forget about yourself

Still a fun idea

[stray girder]

@.devs will we get fingerless gloves in the dlc?

[formal mantle]

Hey friends! Does anyone knows if the new announcement comes today?

[real harbor]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=liN2hF27X_w

Reveal Trailer.

[covert aurora]

trailer drop and steam page update

[edgy linden]

No 🥜 or not

[formal mantle]

Im hyped for this one. I hope that they bring more improvements to the base game together with the dlc 😄

[harsh cape]

does anybody remember what the initial ready or not world reveal trailer looked like vs what we get now?

The quality difference is actually pretty sad

[stone bay]

Yay finally

Low ready nods

[harsh cape]

oh that's nice

[stone bay]

You're nice

don't go to the station tomorrow

[harsh cape]

😱

[timber mesa]

what a campaign slogan

[umbral oar]

won my vote

[rustic vapor]

MLO can still be found in game

Through newspaper clippings in the Adam Update mission

Can’t send it here but you can look for yourself

I really hope these guys become a major player in the future

#🎨ron-screenshots-and-art message

Here

These guys are by far the most interesting and engaging faction in the game, it’s really a shame that we don’t get to see them often

I’m really hoping the come the 10rh they’re featured in the DLC

[summer carbon]

who else getting the new dlc?

[azure crypt]

the ais are still dogshit at following commands

[summer carbon]

true

[azure crypt]

holy shit theyre even worse than they used to be

theyre just walking past people and guns whent ehy should be ziptying and bagging them

[summer carbon]

yeah its pretty fucking annoying

i'd honestly rather go solo on most maps than use the ai teamates

[azure crypt]

i set both teams up on different doors and queue them both to kick and flash

for some reason if i execute gold they kick and flash but stand there and dont move in

if i execute one element then the one i didnt execute will walk over and try to be part of it

and if i try to execute both elements individually it does that same thing but the guys already walking over will walk back and do their thing and the guys i told to do theirs first will now walk over

ive complained about it so many times and i think one time a dev said smn but it just hasnt been fixed

[surreal gulch]

The Map Elephant makes me want to uninstall the game, I just had 2 runs that before I even entered the door I heard a shot go off and I got the message that I failed to save all civilians like come on I didn’t have a chance

[azure crypt]

yeah it happens sometimes you just gotta restart ti lyou get it

[surreal gulch]

And then even when I tell a civilian to leave for the exit sometimes the SWAT AI decides to yell at them again and arrest them anyway so that’s just annoying

[azure crypt]

cant wait for dark waters cuz i love marine settings with amphibious units but i really hope they fix the ai

[surreal gulch]

The announcement did say bug fixes in terms of the AI but I doubt that’s any major behavioural changes just some tweaks with things not working as intended which will likely mean they won’t be much easier, just fix when they freak out and do something they’re not meant to

[azure crypt]

theyre focused on fixing things that are basically fine

[surreal gulch]

The AI needs a HUUUUGE overhaul because right now the game plays like a hardcore shooter and not a SWAT sim, which is fine but it just doesn’t quite feel right since the game seems to be trying its best to set the scene and immerse you, and then you get a guy on meth that shoots better than SWAT while sprinting away firing behind him

[strange depot]

The new update will change nothing when it comes to the ai as the technical foundation is still the same

Maybe slight improvement but overall the same behaviors will remain and mechanics will be the same. Unfortunately

[surreal gulch]

Exactly what I mean. It needs some heavy changes but they aren’t planning on it anytime soon

[strange depot]

Void is happy with the ai groundwork atm so wanting a big change isn’t going to happen. That is… until the sdk releases and modders go in and overhaul everything themselves.

[subtle wadi]

Have you heard the story of worms

[umbral oar]

🪱

[urban raft]

Isn't Void planning on adding IR laser + flashlight usage in the game in the next update?

[covert aurora]

It was something they wanted too include into the DLC but were not able to properly fit it in

[urban raft]

Alright so it's in the works at least

[covert aurora]

yeah

[opal basin]

wait what

[urban raft]

sick, thanks a bunch

[opal basin]

i fucking called it

i jokingly said "time for void to needlessly remove one of the features they were going to implement because fuck us"

[covert aurora]

we will on the other hand.... get duel faces IE: gas mask and nvg's

[opal basin]

i didnt mean for it to be right

[wraith lance]

I was considering the opposite
That the game is trying his best to be a Swat Sim, but only just

[surreal gulch]

I personally feel the game is trying to but the AI is not

[covert aurora]

it wouldn't say "because fuck us." i would more say they just couldn't get it properly implmented.

[wraith lance]

Like, THE thing that triggered me, for a simulation at least, is that the COMMANDER of the team : IS THE FIRST TO GO

LIKE... God damit

[opal basin]

it does not take that long to do this

just add one more attachment slot

instead of side rail, left and right rail

[umbral oar]

u didn’t call it, they told us

[covert aurora]

yeah they said this in brief 80

[opal basin]

way to A. not get a joke, B. be no fun

[surreal gulch]

It’s a little more complicated than that I’m afraid, programming is super complicated even if it may seem simple on the user side

[covert aurora]

lol

[urban raft]

Ground branch style weapon customization could be sick

[umbral oar]

oh my bad bruh 💀

[opal basin]

i mean ive done this shit before, i just have no frame of reference for unreal engine

never used it

[opal basin]

too bad thats the only good part of that game

[covert aurora]

sarcasm is hard to tell through text chat 🤣

[wraith lance]

Having so much attachment that you could barely turn them on by the amount of keys you would push ? x)

[urban raft]

I think it's pretty fun for what it is, not a mind blowing game

[opal basin]

ground branch is why people think people who play tactical shooters are idiots

[urban raft]

Has a lot of work to be done before it's really good

[opal basin]

ground branch is just a cool weapon system with no gameplay

ass game

[urban raft]

bro's hatin 💔

[surreal gulch]

Pretty much, feels like a tech demo more than a game

[opal basin]

i dont know if its improved in the year and a half since i refunded it, but i doubt it has

[urban raft]

Can't disagree with what you're saying tho

[opal basin]

especially since they were scamming for $20 fuckin dollars back then

[wraith lance]

oof

[opal basin]

20 green ones for something i can get in a roblox game with better gameplay

[surreal gulch]

Pretty sure I got it during a sale, but I mostly just go to it when I want to blow off steam and shoot terrorists

[wraith lance]

Woh bro, chill X'D

[opal basin]

not even kidding

[urban raft]

Deadline?

[opal basin]

yeah, among some others.

[wraith lance]

Game's imperfect, but c'mon it's not that bad (dunno, I barely have an hour of gameplay, and I've been triggered 5 times)

[urban raft]

Deadline is pretty fun I should play it again

[opal basin]

it also has a lot of work to be done, but unlike ground branch its actually fun

another fun game is blackhawk rescue mission 5, which has similar customization and full armor customization not just guns like in deadline, and super fleshed out gameplay that isnt just cod modes

[urban raft]

I've got 118 hours and I can confidently say it's a solid 6/10 or less for most people, personally I enjoy the hell out of it because it doesn't take a lot for me to like something. People should only get the game if they know that it's still pretty much early early access

[opal basin]

has a whole open world

fucking ghost recon shit

[opal basin]

it doesnt take a lot for me to like something either but ground branch is just a nothingburger of a "game"

[wraith lance]

And I'm biased 'cause I'm a Zero Hour Enjoyer

[opal basin]

i really want zero hour

looks cool as shit

[wraith lance]

But if it's like 6/10 ? Well, seems like a 8/10 without the AI and a bunch of friends to play with

[opal basin]

looks like RoN but the devs said "screw "realism" and "accuracy to real SWAT", lets let the players have fun"

[urban raft]

I tried to get back into it but too much has changed since i last played it so I'mma have to try another time when I'm not too lazy to figure out all the controls and shit again

[wraith lance]

It's a tactical shooter, without all the "graviting features" of RoN

[opal basin]

it has fucking drones

it looks super cool

[urban raft]

I've always looked at Zero Hour if it was siege but not made by ubisoft and NOT dogshit

[wraith lance]

Well, you kinda got it

[opal basin]

ive always looked at siege if it was CS with aiming and hero shooter (ew) and dogshit

[wraith lance]

Can't tell, I'm not a CS player

[opal basin]

i reccomend it

[urban raft]

Siege was pretty fun for a while up until like 4-5 years ago

[opal basin]

they recently added PEAK back to the game

the map train

[wraith lance]

I would say that, what RoN doesn't have in "field tactics" he got it in pre-plannification, simulation of realism and lore
While Zero Hour doesn't have the over-realism simulacrum, he got it in field execution and arcade satisfaction

[opal basin]

yeah

i love the satisfaction bit

[wraith lance]

But yeah, it's more a "Tacticool shooter, with [Operator Aesthetics] patch on it"

Which is fine, that's what the studio wanted

RoN... Dunno

It's a sim, but SEVERAL CRUCIAL details misses
It's a tactical shooter, but it misses a lot of "FPS-Basics"

[opal basin]

it misses the #1 rule of fps games, g36 full handle

[lost inlet]

Straight up butchered my boy for no reasons 😔

[pine ore]

so saw the trailer

[pliant pelican]

Every singe person (AI) in my team have more than PTSD...

Anyone plays RoN in New Zealand?

[opal basin]

working class joe shoulda picked a different career path 😭

[covert aurora]

and if you read his name tag it's "Mike"

[opal basin]

RoN devs on their way to make every single activist organization look like a terrorist group

[lost inlet]

Lmao???

[lost inlet]

So what are the new guns gonna be added?

[urban walrus]

#🎨ron-screenshots-and-art message

[lost inlet]

That’s a lot of 7.62x51mm

[opaque moth]

the new dark waters dlc looks SOOOO good

[lost inlet]

And is one of them is just G3 but shorter?

[burnt chasm]

When are we gonna see more old guns equipped with modern accessories. Imagine Walther MPL mounted with holo sight and laser side mounted

[crude prism]

In development since 2007

Our kids are gonna love it, but we won't live to see it my frined

[urban raft]

Wait fr? I had no clue it’s been in development that long lmfao

[crude prism]

Debatable when they ~really~ started development (considering it had*** 2-4 people working on it for many years), but they gave public builds to youtubers 9 years ago.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FY_4GNJywrg&pp=ygUZYmx1ZWRyYWtlNDIgZ3JvdW5kIGJyYW5jaA%3D%3D

And they still have test footage up on their official YT channel from 14 years ago

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=16-y3OF8Nzc&t=25s&ab_channel=BlackFootStudios

[urban raft]

My god how long has BD42 been on yt

[crude prism]

Loooooooooooooooooooooooooooong time

[urban raft]

Better question, has he always been a shill

[crude prism]

Eh? I used to have a better opinion of him, but for many years now him AND most "tactical youtubers" are just shills

[urban raft]

Yeah, I like his music tho

[crude prism]

He even used footage of RoN to promote his F2P TACTICAL SANDBOX

[urban raft]

His heavy advocacy for AI is so cringe

[urban raft]

💀

[crude prism]

hold on let me get teh copypasta

[urban raft]

Is it the Gmod realism one?

[crude prism]

maybe

AHEM

GARRYSMOD

[urban raft]

When are RoN devs gonna add more tactical??

Game is unplayable with the lack of tactical

[crude prism]

@Kanimsky when are you guys gonna make RoN more like BD's Tactical Gmod Pack

(he's gonna shoot me for posting that)

[urban raft]

When are you adding skins and battlepasses

[crude prism]

RoN Battle Royale

[noble pasture]

Why not ask for twerking emote while at it?

Make Judge shake that ass

[subtle tapir]

im unable to finish the twisted nerve mission objective: bring order to chaos, all civs and suspects are handcuffed what am i missing?

is there some secret location i missed?

[jolly verge]

Did you check cave and attic?

[subtle tapir]

i checked attic

i missed cave i think

[jolly verge]

Usually there 2 suspect in cave

[subtle tapir]

oh yeah i found it

[subtle tapir]

there were at least 5 lmao, i got killed by the last one ig

[wet thunder]

Is there like a technical reason as to why there are no more than 5 SWAT team members? Is it a matter of optimization or?

[wraith lance]

It's the minimal operators needed in a team
1 group chief
2 squad of 2 and 3
The two being : one chief, one executant
And the second team having the chief and 2 executants

At best : 7 membres are needed for good coordination
And at the very worst : 3 operators (1 chief, 2 executants)

[amber dock]

Engine limitations or some weird excuse

[uncut garden]

Man It's the Season of 7.62x51mm next update haha

3 new 7.62x51mm weapons for free

That GA51 is definitely my go to

[noble pasture]

I have worst officer roster

[noble pasture]

3 crowd control, 2 moral and 2 kickers

On a S rank run

[urban walrus]

https://imgur.com/a/FVXdZSY

[wet thunder]

Can you translate that into english

[amber dock]

Still not a good enough reason why, with all maps being so massive and seem to get even bigger with every new one. Idk how small maps were back in 21 but todays Ron 5 players is not cutting it

[wet thunder]

Yeah, and not nearly everything plays with human teammates

[tiny quail]

just s ranked valley and lethal obsession

i got the funny blue hawaiian shirt this is peak gaming

[urban walrus]

-For more stability and performance
-Easier balancing for the maps and wanted to have the same number of SWAT as singleplayer
Context: the game used to have up to 8 players Co-Op and only 5 for Singleplayer

[wet thunder]

So is it more power consuming to have more AI teammates?

[urban walrus]

More things to render = more power needed

[wet thunder]

So why would co-op have more?

[urban walrus]

Probably because the maps used to be balanced more around Co-op and they want to have big maps

[wet thunder]

Yeah but still 8 isn’t that much for bigger maps

[obtuse notch]

this game is proper so scary dude i just shat my pants from a meth head sprinting at me with a shotugn

[urban walrus]

Now that is just map design issue, you can have a team of 2 and it would still have great gameplay when all of the maps are 1-2 floors and 3 rooms max per floor

[uncut garden]

It's good to know that they're going to fix the Random perma Freeze with the new update tho

It happens randomly But when It does, You have to use the Task Manager to shut the game down

The issue happens very commonly on 23Megabytes a second map

[frail jackal]

Ye that happens pretty often

The meth heads part

[obtuse notch]

no the shitting pants part is definately very common in this game

[noble pasture]

so I have 3 crowd control, 2 kickers, 2 morale officers and 1 nutritonist for S rank runs

[tired jungle]

Why the fuck do you have 2 kickers

Like i understand one is just a huge quality of life improvement but what the fuck does the other one do

[mystic flame]

do only specific maps have traps on doors or it can happen on any map

[amber dock]

Only specific, Ridgeline,sins of the father and brisa cove have traps.

Sins of the father only has flash bang traps so no traps that can kill you

While Brisa and ridgeline have explosive traps

[tired jungle]

Kaboom

[mystic flame]

ty

[noble pasture]

game gave it to me

the initial spawn

[tired jungle]

Fire that fucker

[noble pasture]

Will game give me a new officer?

[tired jungle]

Yes but you may lose morale

[tiny quail]

isn't there like 1 or 2 door trapped on rust belt?

i literally have been mirroring every door like a paranoid on that map

[amber dock]

Rust belt don’t have any traps vanilla wise, if you encounter traps on Rust belt then you have some mod that adds traps

[tiny quail]

i did have some ai changing mod when i encountered it (now im playing on vanilla ai)

I didn't even know they can affect trap placement

[tired jungle]

It used to

[mint falcon]

hot giddy damn a new dlc huh

and it's in 4 days huh

what's added beside the map?

[jolly verge]

Guns #🎨ron-screenshots-and-art message

[mint falcon]

yay

[rocky plover]

very similar approach to how I do brisa cove, a lot of wedges and it becomes easy

try to free lean, usually gives you enough angle to toss one inside without the suspect seeing you

[noble pasture]

We are getting 2 attachments per helmet in new update

Gonna sport that Gas Mask and Quad NVG look

When you are expecting SWAT and instead you get SCP MTF looking motherfuckers

[opal basin]

Is it actually in 4 days or is that just a meme

I hope it is

[noble pasture]

10th of december, It will be at 3 pm Europe Standard Time

[opal basin]

Why that if void is presumably based in the US

Europe

[noble pasture]

There were more time zones in the annoucement but I remembered that one. It will be in the morning for USA

[opal basin]

Alright

Well parts of the us

[noble pasture]

At least East Coast

I am most excited for vanilla Gas Mask + NVG

[opal basin]

Looks like 1pm for me

[noble pasture]

British

[opal basin]

?

I live in Washington

[noble pasture]

The fuck you mean 1 pm?

[opal basin]

Pacific standard time?

I live in Washington

The time one is pacific standard time

3pm CET to PST is 1pm

[noble pasture]

What the fuck?

What the actual fuck?

There isnt just 3 hours between USA and Europe

Its 7 hours

[opal basin]

Is Europe standard not abbreviated as CST? That’s what google tells me

[noble pasture]

EST

[thorn egret]

Man I was hoping the new dlc was gonna give us some more bulky vests, like the default one
Maybe even the one that the outside swat officers are wearing, w/the neck guard

[noble pasture]

Default one is bugged

Clips on your left shoulder

[thorn egret]

Is it? I never noticed, dang

[noble pasture]

Turn your officer and look at the back of left shoulder

[thorn egret]

The only problem I've had is that the glow sticks can't change color
Blue glow sticks + red tint gas mask is weird

[thorn egret]

Will when I'm home

[noble pasture]

Oil rig suspects when an S Ranker's squad shows up, get caught without martyring themselves and now face life sentence:
"My risk was calculated but man, I am bad at math"

[thorn egret]

I'm most excited for the island myself

[noble pasture]

Who could we even fight on the island?

[thorn egret]

Hoping for some good tropical vibes

[noble pasture]

Can't be meth tweakers

[thorn egret]

The Nazis

It's their hidden base, made back in ww2

[noble pasture]

Huh?

[thorn egret]

Trust me

Just like Antarctica

[noble pasture]

Most likely the Bio Terrorists

So my call is that they tried to take over the oil rig and yacht

And probably got a compound in the old resort

[thorn egret]

Yeah probably

[noble pasture]

Who is funding the terrorists?

[thorn egret]

10/10 if I can throw suspects off the boat / oil rig

[noble pasture]

We did capture an actual veteran during Lawmaker

He was with the bio terrorists

[thorn egret]

The FIA of course (no clue)

[noble pasture]

Rest were gang bangers with a cause to die for

[thorn egret]

I never understand the guys on 23 mb/sec

[noble pasture]

Friends of Michael, plus making a lot on bitcoin

[thorn egret]

Ohh gotcha

[noble pasture]

Armed guard was needed

[thorn egret]

Y'know I lined up all his guards in front of him (all arrested) and slowly killed them one by one with the nova
Didn't know they're his friends
Huh

[noble pasture]

Unsure if it was Michael who called the cops as a joke or a viewer with AI voice of Michael

You can make voice profile of people with AI

My theory is a viewer called police on Michael as a prank or just hated his guts

Police running into the bitcoin farm and cheese pizza was a happy accident

[noble pasture]

Fun fact, Michael gets sentenced 18 years for all the crimes comited

[thorn egret]

Win!!
Yeah he had AI generated art all around his apartment so he had it comin

Also I dunno if the Bitcoin farm would be illegal, I should look into laws about that

[noble pasture]

Cheese pizza most likely gets him most years

[noble pasture]

Electricity theft

[thorn egret]

Nah, that got him like a misdemeanor charge
The AI got him 18 years

[thorn egret]

Ah gotcha
Use the Bitcoin mined money to pay the electric bills 🧠

[noble pasture]

He did get a higher than Snoop Dogg electricity bill

So he tried to steal from neighbours

[thorn egret]

Maybe because of his ugly setup
Deserved

[noble pasture]

Thats all the wires going around

[thorn egret]

Gonna read a bit so brb 🔥

[noble pasture]

Okay

[halcyon gyro]

In answer to the QoL improvements and the added "flexibility" to the game, will we see the official release of the multiplayer with more than 5 players ? Will we also see a graphical orders menu in MP ?

[wintry folio]

Hey I play RoN with a buddy of mine and have been since launch, and just recently he was kicked by an admin while I was hosting, who do I talk to about this?

[cunning walrus]

Hello, does somebody know why i cant turn on ready or not with mods

[jolly verge]

Broken/outdated mods

[halcyon gyro]

Try to start in "non crash mode"

[cunning walrus]

No no no, everything was working but since i bought dlc it wasnt working

[halcyon gyro]

Then desinstall/reinstall

[cunning walrus]

Can i fix it somehow?

(home invasion dlc)

[jolly verge]

It's showing corrupt data on start?

[cunning walrus]

Yes

[jolly verge]

Then your mods is outdated after update #❓modding-faq message

[noble pasture]

I have yet to see a GA51

Can someone dig around to see how it even looks like?

Not even forgotten weapons has it

[leaden harness]

man this game is a lot harder than i expected

i love it

any equipment you guys recommend?

[jolly verge]

Heavy vest with ceramic plates

[leaden harness]

oh right, havent figured this out yet
is there a weight system that slows you down?

or downsides for gun attachments

[jolly verge]

Nope, only plate materials has acceleration penalty, but not speed

[jolly verge]

4 more days

🏌️‍♂️

[stone bay]

For what

[leaden harness]

thanks

[hushed rivet]

Dark waters dlc

[tacit gull]

GA51 isnt a real gun lmao

GA is the in universe HK

[mint falcon]

no fucking way they added m14

i wonder if it will have automatic mode

[tacit gull]

[wraith lance]

Oy' guys ; how do we wear off the facewear ? I put one by mistake and I can't pull it off

[noble pasture]

why cant our operators shut the fuck up on mirroring doors?

gerard heard my Judge talk, kicked open the door and shot me like a dog with mirror in hand

Shut your fucking mouth if you are cutting a wire or using a mirror

[jolly verge]

Suspects dont hear how you talking, only when yelling

[noble pasture]

So how did he know I was behind door?

[jolly verge]

Just randomly opened the door or heared how you walking

[noble pasture]

I didnt yell once in the entire mission

Sullivan Slope is bigger rng check than I thought

if you dont Alt F4 half of ironman runs end there

1 bs spawn and you die

[stone bay]

Is it just me, or the AI's sharper with their shooting that it was before? Was playing in the Spider/Nursery map and in the Streamer raid map. They seem to be really good with distance engangements.

[noble pasture]

I did Ides of march

my swat AI didnt to diddy fuck

Also a shooter per hallway

[noble pasture]

Second time I did better, also had the idea to hand a officer AI bean bag shotgun.

[deep rain]

Question: I think I read somewhere that it's a feature to just insert yourself into the NPC SWAT AI stack and they will adapt. So you can take the lead or be any number in the stack. But when I do that, they are constantly bickering "you are in my spot". Was it always like that?

[winter pendant]

I'm not aware of any such feature

[pine ore]

I also was not aware. Can any RoN devs confirm

[amber dock]

This was supposed to be a thing IIRC but I guess it's bugged out atm

[subtle wadi]

What time update

Or do we not know

[amber dock]

no knowing atm

[brittle swan]

i sure hope they fixed the clipping gasmasks

that would be quite amazing if they did

biggest gripe with the game ngl

[noble pasture]

[night badger]

they will break the AI again to create hype. get ready for aimbot AI, so esport streamers will get surprised to attract more attention to it

classic

they did that before. both EA release and 1.0 release

I will post negative review this time I don't care anymore. lame cheap move

[noble pasture]

1.0 suspect AI was worst

A guy got killed by a suspect for being detected for 1 pixel

From another room

[night badger]

this was on purpose. they toned down detection now they're not that broken.. until they bring it back in next update lmao

post office was so cancerous

all little pixelated gaps. you make one step and get suppressed cuz makarov can't pierce mail carts they saw through

[noble pasture]

Suspects should be able to run out of ammo

Once out of bullets surrender

[rocky plover]

Um they do run out of ammo, takes a while but yeah.

[noble pasture]

I never seen a suspect run out of ammo

[stark dew]

We will be able to get the DLC guns without the dlc, right?

[rocky plover]

yes

[stark dew]

And cosmetics?

[rocky plover]

Takes a while but i've seen it happen quite a lot

[rocky plover]

No

[stark dew]

Fair

[noble pasture]

The maps and cosmetics are whats in the pricetag

[night badger]

good

[rocky plover]

There are mods for that if you want anyways.

[stark dew]

They are giving me a G3 and I am happy for it

[night badger]

is it shorter than it actually is, like rest of all assault rifles in game?

[noble pasture]

Germany's: "We have FN FAL at home"

[stark dew]

Don’t know

[deep rain]

https://youtu.be/0nj6qWDNU0A?si=pn0PksB3a-4LP653&t=239

[stark dew]

Actually, all of assault rifles in game are supposed to be short

those are CQB versions

[night badger]

they seem waaaaaay shorter than they are. g36 is like bonked from front

[night badger]

I'm ok with versions, but they really look like narrowed in length man. otherwise all good

[stark dew]

Yeah

That’s why they are for CQB

You can have some complications with long weapons in CQB

[leaden harness]

what kinda goofy ass mods exist for ron?

i can only wonder considering how serious the base game is

[night badger]

looks very lame man. I want full version of AR I'm getting. that G3 is going to be hand cannon I swear

just wrote g3 cqb in google, it looks cringe as hell

[umbral oar]

sr 16 is full length

[amber dock]

Uh lots of anime skins or nerf guns skin not sure if they still work on current ron though

[night badger]

true

[worldly ridge]

This is AI is making me go mad I swear.
SWAT AI is set to Fall In (Dorms)

one random SWAT member decides to go to the second floor and just try to solo it and dies.
How? What trigger made the AI abadnon the entire team

[noble pasture]

My game keeps freezing on Post Office

I also hate that map with a passion, all the suspects have cover

And can shoot through said cover

That big room to the left is so annoying

No matter where you approach from they have cover

[warped cave]

The narcos map is actually scary bro

i just got so scared, my ear plugged

💀

[stark dew]

Grenades, a lot of grenades

[stark dew]

Which mission was that, again?

[warped cave]

CS gas

[warped cave]

dlc map

[stark dew]

The big abandoned house with a bunch of drug addicts?

[noble pasture]

Thats dorms

[stark dew]

The one with many houses?

[worldly ridge]

Narcos is the one with the large amounts of small houses and the drug cartel members

[noble pasture]

Wait no, Twisted Nerve

[stark dew]

Oh, the dlc remake of twisted nerve

[noble pasture]

Ye, just faster

[stark dew]

Literally same thing but horizontal instead of vertical and day instead of night

Probably one of the less exciting dlc maps

I enjoyed the luxurious house map

[worldly ridge]

Oh yeah that's a great map

Soooo many room tho

Still, nothing the FAL cannot handle

Right Arm of The LSPD

Also, AOR2 camo chest & helmet rig when?

[stark dew]

(There is no Fal in the unmodded arsenal)

[worldly ridge]

SA-58 is a FAL, just a full sized one

[stark dew]

Well, yeah

[unborn flame]

is there anyway to play on any map? i just got the game and is new

[worldly ridge]

You need to complete them in order first. If you just want to speedrun them so you can play any map, I recommend quickplay instead of "proper" single player. No need to worry about teammate stats (not like it matters anyway).
DLC missions are playable without completing the base game in Quickplay.

[unborn flame]

alr ty

[worldly ridge]

On second tought, just go Single Player and "speedrun" the maps. Like I said, not like teammate stats matter that much. @unborn flame

You can go for higher scores and stuff once you have them unlocked

[unborn flame]

alright

[deep rain]

The dynamic music on cardealership is still so awesome. Like, no other track in the game gets me so pumped

[thorn egret]

Tried joining a pub lobby 3 times
Got into watchmenwakeup's lobby 3 times in a row

4

[muted star]

Start your own

Help others out I guess

[lavish reef]

what the hell SWAT will do at oil rig😭

[rich quartz]

I like how the reveal trailer starts off with a guy doom scrolling

[lavish reef]

oil rig is job for Seals team,DEVGRU or marsoc

[shy tulip]

https://tenor.com/view/doom-doom-guy-isabelle-rip-and-tear-video-game-gif-16716710

[lavish reef]

i AM pretty sure it will be new team for this mission

[rich quartz]

They’re finally adding the guns that where removed no need for for sniper or not mod lmao

[thorn egret]

Wish we had a multicam version of the crye combat shirt
The only multicam top is that normal shirt, which looks too tight

[lavish reef]

what you mean

i Hope cosmetics are good

i know its swat game but i am making IT like a mislim

[thorn egret]

Sniper or Not is a weapon mod that restores a few cut weapons that're still in the files

[lavish reef]

oh

i would like to have sniper mode like in SWAT

e.g. 4/5 people play as an assault team and one player can be a sniper

[thorn egret]

Oh yeah that'd be awesome

[proven blade]

Yall excited for DLC 2

[thorn egret]

Very

[proven blade]

Same

I like oil rigs and I like RON

[thorn egret]

I like ISLANDS

[proven blade]

Oh yeah mission 3

Isn’t mission 1 a yacht cuz 2 is the rig

[umbral oar]

i like MLO

[proven blade]

Ok loreboar

[thorn egret]

Mhm mhm

[umbral oar]

i wanna meet the guy with the hat

[thorn egret]

which guy

[umbral oar]

well i actually dont know who he is but he wears a big flower

have you seen void’s mlo video

[thorn egret]

nah

[umbral oar]

its pretty creepy

[noble pasture]

MLO used to be a faction

For pvp, supposedly they are the washed up product of USIA's perfect law enforcement experiment

[thorn egret]

Huh, nice

Also man I'm tryna experiment with clothing choices can my man stop doing these poses after I give him clothing

[noble pasture]

Since pvp got canned for foreseeable future due to bugs and instability the faction got canned with it

[prime wing]

It hasnt been canned officially but a smart fella would see why its not viable

Sounds a whole project on its own

They either do a small pvp, no major battle pass or live service bs with minimal support. Or decide to do a fully fleshed out cop v suspect game thats round based

It seems really far away atm

[thorn egret]

battle pass with a season system + ingame currency

The holy trinity of trying to find a public lobby

• Game is in progress
• Cheksum
• Lost connection to host

[desert pollen]

Bro I swear 90% of the time I lose connection to host

[deep rain]

is there a new soft objective on farm that I dont know of? everything is green, nothing to secure, yet mission doesnt end

[covert aurora]

In the art room in the first building

[amber dock]

Uh the cult painting stuff? Or you’re missing a gun

[deep rain]

probably missing a gun

[amber dock]

The only soft objective I can think of is the paintings other then that everything is a main objective

[covert aurora]

Or as Dreepa and Patrick said missing a gun or an unreported suapect

[deep rain]

oh and 1h ago I played cardealership, and noticed the weapons cache is no softobjecvite, but I could interact with the money on the car. or are they the same and you just need one?

[amber dock]

The same

So report either weapons or cash and it will count as all in one

[deep rain]

that's something....let me check

I got 520h in RON... and NEVER EVER realized you could report the money on the car

lol

[leaden harness]

what equipment do you guys recommend?

[covert aurora]

I mean all them are viable

[full shore]

Yes

[covert aurora]

Depends on what you want too do

[leaden harness]

really? i thought taser was less viable and the two first grenades act the same

[full shore]

There really isn't a meta. Just use whatever you think is the coolest

[deep rain]

if you want to have your SWAT AI deal with threats realiably, SA58 with AP

but dont expect survivors for arrest

if you want to increase your chances of them surrendering while you blast them, SMG with JHP

but depending on mission prepare to put quite some bursts on them

[leaden harness]

i see, alr

[deep rain]

Also, the internet claims, stinger have a larger radius and a longer stun at the cost of possible friendly fire

but I am not so sure about that

[mint falcon]

oh you best be sure i'm jumping in on the 10th to give the scar and the m14 a shot holy

[crude prism]

The stinger CAN (technically) cause friendly fire, and has a 20% larger radius. But it won't really trigger penalties unless you're misusing it

[subtle wadi]

The m14 90s loadouts boutta be lit

Kinda was hoping for a new handgun though

[rain basin]

Hey there so I've been s ranking missions with a friend in my lobby so for example a bit ago we s ranked ides of march but when he went into his own lobby it said he hadn't completed it

[amber dock]

No it’s not, cause as long as that pesky rail is on it it’s not a 90s gun

[covert aurora]

pats

M14 with a rail is weird

[covert aurora]

🤔 weird..

[amber dock]

Yeah I know…

But the truth is

VOID ain’t gonna change it

[proven blade]

jesus christ

this watchmenwakeuponyt guy is so annoying

[covert aurora]

Mmhm

[amber dock]

So I gotta do it myself

When I have the model

Just remove that rail and I’m happy and everyone else is

[covert aurora]

Pretty much

[proven blade]

Canonically, Judge is ex-FISA, but Prescott, Swan, King, and Eli are not. So why are they sending Los Angeles/Suenos SWAT to an offshore oil rig??

Wouldn’t the Coast Guard deal with that??

[shy tulip]

Judge has indoctrinated them

[proven blade]

Also if I don’t see a life vest thing for the DLC im gonna freak

[proven blade]

In what sense

[shy tulip]

https://tenor.com/view/wouldnt-you-like-to-know-weather-boy-gif-15559185

[proven blade]

Yes

[bitter mason]

ron's lore and reasoning for many missions dont make much sense

I feel like they should have kept the stories purly for the missions and not really delved into the swat characters that much if they wanted to push missions into more special forces territory. I dont really mind the upcoming maps too much tho. I just want them to actually make it atleast play like a swat game

[proven blade]

You see

They didn’t, we did

[bitter mason]

tru lol

atleast in terms of singleplayer you're always gonna be judge and leading D-platoon. the members of the squad seem lore wise to be pretty much whatever since they didnt expand on the og crew at all really. I would have liked that also but eh

[prime wing]

the game found success on being somewhat of a hybrid between cag simulator and "swat" per se, but it is an arcade game at best. Outside of commander mode, I dont see it viable to change at that point. The market yearns for cag and reload thumbnails

And I think it was for the better to go arcade route since they struggled for years to find a sweet spot

Thats probably why some missions dont make sense, its fun, but it shouldnt be taken as the real police work. Mostly inspired by or based on that restricted roe. Unfortunately the word realism is thrown around a lot in marketing and while true, somewhat unclear at first.

[subtle wadi]

What rail

For the optic?

[cursive minnow]

Yea DLC m14 has a rail going along the entire top side of the gun as you can see from the photo of it here: #🎨ron-screenshots-and-art message
Old m14 that you can unlock with mods only had a rail adapter when you put a sight on it.

[covert aurora]

And abit of side rail on tge handguard

At least on the left side of the rifle

Scratch that its bothsides

[subtle wadi]

I mean to be fair it looks to be “modernized” by the furniture same with the g36

There has always been optic rails tho for the m14

[stone bay]

I aint want no teenage queen

I just want my M14

[covert aurora]

I mean i welcome the m14, i just like the classic wood style of it.

[stone bay]

CLASSIC WOOD STYLE M14

I aint want no teenage queen

[covert aurora]

Lol

[stone bay]

I just want my M14

[covert aurora]

Its coming

[stone bay]

🤨

[stone bay]

oh

[covert aurora]

December 10th we will have the m14

[cursive minnow]

I mean I ain’t got no problem with it either way I was just explaining and answering the question. It’s likely gonna be a gun I don’t use regardless.

[stone bay]

ok 👍

[brave shuttle]

is there a way to get ai team members in private friend multiplayer

[rocky plover]

there is a mod called spawn police

[brave shuttle]

Can u send it

[vast folio]

Is breaching rooms with AI broken at the moment, or is my game scuffed due to mods or something?

Shotgun breaching leaves the AI doods just standing there after shooting the lock.

I want the ruger mini 14

With a 40 cal Glock

And Pvs 14 single nods

[plain python]

All I want for Christmas is: Ready or not Dark waters DLC

[covert aurora]

4 days

[vast folio]

I hope suspect AI gets touched up, most engagements repeats the same pattern of the enemy spotting me from a pixel, going full-sprint and spraying at me through walls 😄

[brave shuttle]

i downloaded and installed it and the mod manager and it still doesnt work

[vast folio]

They just run and gun around like crazy. The postal level is notorious for this, as the suspect seem to be able to spot you through most objects in the level.

[brave shuttle]

Nvm we chillin

[stone bay]

xD

Once they see you they start to track you whole time

Wallbang

[frigid condor]

Gentleman, any advice for gettinng S Rank on the Watt College map? I cant mmove fast enough to get all 4 before a hostage is killed.

[ripe carbon]

Maybe try to do it more quiet?

[lost inlet]

RNG

[lost inlet]

Once you entered the building, the countdown begins before the suspects begins gunning down civs

[frigid condor]

How so? I feel like the hostage killing is programmed in to happen after a certain amount of time.

[frigid condor]

Yea, thats my issue. Seems like its always at the 2 minute mark. I cant get to all 4 fast enouggh.

[lost inlet]

That’s why i sent RNG, you need a good enough spawn to get all 4 of the suspects before any civs dies

[frigid condor]

Dosnt seem like its possible from my end. I have well over 100 tries at this point.

[stone bay]

Fr

[lost inlet]

Just use mod

Achievements don’t get turned off when you’re using mods

[frigid condor]

Which mods?

[stone bay]

Every

[lost inlet]

Any

More movement speed, turn suspects brain off

[frigid condor]

Any? I dont think pink cammo is going to help mme here. Xp

[lost inlet]

Well duh, that’s just cosmetic mods, not gameplay impact ones

[frigid condor]

Hhrrmmm.... Ill have to look into that.

[jolly verge]

Dont do anything, but make suspect surrender and run to another one, you can order your swat ai restrain them, so you wont lose time to do it by yourself
2 minutes is more then enough to run first and second floor, but suspects spawn is really rng here

[frigid condor]

Thats what ive been doing. Tell me squad to arrest and move on. :/

Im usinng the bean bagg shotgun, would pepper be a better choice?

[jolly verge]

Beanbag on this map is better option, since you need only 1 shot to stun suspect instead of 4 pepperball

[jolly verge]

You always moving with low ready?

for 20% extra speed

[pine ore]

bouta try ironman mode again to get the developer watch, any tips?

[noble pasture]

How fucked up is RoN world from a scale of Fairytale to Grimdark?

Noblebright being in the midle

Since the world isnt that much more fucked up than irl

[acoustic ridge]

if u want to cheese it just alt f4
if u want to do it legit then idk use 300blk/sa58 and pray

[noble pasture]

I still Alt F4. Legit this game is a nightmare to play

You get domed through walls

[acoustic ridge]

u can shoot at people back thru walls btw

if theres a civillian thats just unlucky

but always remember mag dumping through the wall is an option

[noble pasture]

By Postal Office I only had to alt f4 3 times

Rest were my game freezing

[acoustic ridge]

i dont like postal, too many weird angles and tiny pixels that i get shot thru

[noble pasture]

And I am trying to S rank it

[acoustic ridge]

S with ai is way harder than S in multiplayer

ai is kinda stupid when it comes to S ranking

[noble pasture]

Dont tell me, once I had to contest a hallway alone while SWAT AI was scratching their butts

[acoustic ridge]

honestly postal is just a pain

weird angles that you cant see throuugh

and big spaces

[noble pasture]

Contest the bags room faster?

If I take that map is easier

[frigid condor]

Yea. I ask these questions, jump back on and get it first try.

[noble pasture]

So is Ready or Not normal or a bit grim dark?

[frigid condor]

Define "Normal".

[noble pasture]

Normal is irl world

Bad and good alike

[frigid condor]

Well in that case, yes. It covers real world topics. Granted most of those topics are not the happy type.

[noble pasture]

So taking a suspect alive matters

Civilized justice

Criminals will go even worse if they are just getting killed

[frigid condor]

If you havent seen anything about the ggamme or how it works, yes, kinda. You get a higher score for taking the bad guys in alive. For example, I am trying to S Rank all the maps right now, in order to do that you need to take everyone in alive.

[noble pasture]

I have played the game I meant that if suspects off themselves or die in a shootout they have escaped justice

Need to take them in and pay for their crimes

[frigid condor]

I mean, I guess? In the real world yea. But there isnt a criminal justice system in the game. You're not like, going to court or filling out paperwork or anything in the game. 😹

[noble pasture]

If you follow the story line we do.see a sentencing

[frigid condor]

Is that mentioned in a news paper or email or something?

[noble pasture]

Streamer Michael gets sentenced to 18 years, yes a Laptop on Mindjot

Most likely because he fired at police and the CP

[tardy light]

Can i use a lockpick for the crooked cop achievment?

[tiny quail]

ron should have a 5 hour long obligatory paperwork section each mission for peak immersion

[analog jolt]

Hi, are there any leaks about the price of the new DLC?

[noble pasture]

Most likely 10 euros

[noble pasture]

S ranked Postal Office with bots

Took me 4 Alt F4's and 3 game freezes

But managed it with 21 minutes on the clock

Last few guys were sitting on their ass on the long hallway with loading trucks section

Started yeeting gas nades at every sound

[desert pollen]

Why get an S when you can just shoot the civilians?

"Entry team, stop breaking your RoE!"

[noble pasture]

Defused 2 human shields with bean bag

If you aim for the arm it will knock the gun out of their hands

[desert pollen]

But if you aim for the head they die

[noble pasture]

Aim for arm

Or head with VKS

[noble pasture]

Wait

If Neon Tomb takes place in new canon way before Valley, means Janey was never there

She would have been 17, not being allowed in the club

New canon puts Neon and Hospital as 2nd and 3rd mission

And Valley as 13th?

[gaunt gale]

Fake IDs and shady club practices exist though

[noble pasture]

Not many survived both Neon and Hospital attacks

Also canon demands Janey survives until Valley

If she was at the club she was one of lucky few

ty sir

[noble pasture]

Game sometimes freezes on more complex maps

Ruining my progress

AAAAAA

I hate valley of the dolls with AI

refuse to follow orders half the time

and once a gas grenade didnt go off

straight up refused to close a door

I went to close the door, got no prompt and I died

[tiny quail]

man was i really lucky with my s rank run on there yesterday

the shits we do for blue hawaiian shirt

[noble pasture]

last man killed me

some random fuck guard who was running around map

[rocky plover]

Last man is always annoying. On steroids and got nothing to lose so he just rushes you like a mad man lol. Super aggressive.

[noble pasture]

Voll's living room is also super hard to clear

[tiny quail]

the last two guard were sitting pretty down in the goon basement part, then i spent a whole 5 minutes running around the house screaming like a madman looking for the last civvies

[noble pasture]

I got shot at from 2 sides

Pushed the kitchen

Can someone tell me how to clear ground floor?

[rocky plover]

Yeah that part is annoying especially when you start getting shot from outside the windows aswell.

[noble pasture]

If I push through bridge and living room I get shot

If I push through the other set of stairs kitchen can shoot me through windows

[rocky plover]

Just don't take the staircase that puts you directly in between the kitchen and living room.

[tiny quail]

yea tbh the living room is hell

[rocky plover]

Take the other stairs closest to the spawn area

[tiny quail]

just take the ones with the most cover

isn't there a way in from the kitchen?

[rocky plover]

Yeah from the back side stairs

[noble pasture]

Yeah

[rocky plover]

Avoid the windows by going through the cinema or what ever it's called

Clear kitchen, then living room

Try getting suspects from the living room towards you to detain

[tiny quail]

oh yeah right if at spawn you took a right there should be a stair to down there

[rocky plover]

Cos if you push living room Ur Gona get shot from outside window

[rocky plover]

Yea exactly

[tiny quail]

ron my favorite horror non horror game

[rocky plover]

Ikr

[tiny quail]

the existensial terror of getting sniped from godknowswhere, and crackheads

[noble pasture]

Bean bag or vks for Valley?

Cause those guards seem resistant to pepper gas

A guy took 5 bean bag shells and a big whiff of cs gas before going down

[rocky plover]

Eh the first time I s ranked it,.it was with pepper ball but now I prefer beanbag for that map. Since it's mostly cqb

[tiny quail]

i did runs on vks, but 2 of my ai mates had beanbags

[rocky plover]

Cos pepper ball seems like it has a longer delay for the aoe to take effect after the update and that made it kinda worse for cqb

[tiny quail]

yea so beanbags for relatively cqb maps, and vks for maps with long ranges

[rocky plover]

Yeah that's my go to most of the time.

[tiny quail]

fuck it, taser

[fleet minnow]

Fully Automatic Taser...

[tiny quail]

electrocutes a suspect

[fleet minnow]

Or simply executes people. Remember using the X2 Taser in modded SWAT 4 on an old lady and she got a heart attack-

I'm not even kidding.

[rocky plover]

I always have a taser irrelevant if I'm using beanbag or vks good backup especially when I'm moving a suspect before detaining just in case he decided to get back up.

It's just so annoying in multiplayer sometimes it doesn't work if you're not the host.

[tiny quail]

i have a muscle memory of tasing that one guy who occasionally spawns in Twisted Nerve's garage during my countless s rank runs

[rocky plover]

Yeah on some maps it's very nice to take advantage when suspects start out with hesitated instead of super aggressive

So the taser plays a nice role there.

[fleet minnow]

I usually find the taser useless because I rarely even use it.

A good smack with the barrel can straighten them out.

[tiny quail]

on the contrary, i rarely use bash

[rocky plover]

Yeah same I hate using bash feels slow

[tiny quail]

because it gets me up close with a suspect and the few times i tried its always unauthorized force

[rocky plover]

And risky

Used to use the pepper spray alot before 1.0 (it was OP while the taser was garbage) now it's the complete opposite so I just replaced the pepper spray for the taser.

[bitter musk]

Question. When Will We get Fingerless gloves. Lol

[tacit gull]

Only supporters were supposed to get them and not even they did

[viral sonnet]

Do perks from AI teammates stack in singleplayer? Let's say that i have two officers with intimidator, does those two effects stack?

[rocky plover]

Some do, some don't.

[bitter musk]

Heyyy I'm back. Also yes We did get fingerless gloves before 1.0

[noble pasture]

Made my team for elephant

[bitter musk]

Cool

[covert aurora]

good luck!

[noble pasture]

failed first S rank attempt

last suspect killed a civie

had 3 arrested

[jolly verge]

Yes, intimidator stack up to 2x, armorer and kicker dont, other traits stacks up to 4x

[viral sonnet]

Okay thanks!

[rocky plover]

And worth to mention most of them are not worth to stack

Maybe some are good up to 2x but with 3 and 4 it's a waste

Cos of diminishing returns

[noble pasture]

I need a route for elephant

Failed it 4 times now

Failure meaning a civie died

The suspects are spread like fuck and can't speedrun all of them

On 5th fail I didn't even have 1 minute before a civie dies

[rocky plover]

The route doesn't matter that much, speed is key in that mission, just keep in mind there are always 2 suspects in the green building and another 2 suspects in the blue building. So start from either 1 and when you have 2 suspects restrained ignore all the rest of the rooms and quickly head for the other side and repeat. Pretty easy with just a flash launcher (very op utility and saves time tossing bangs etc..) instant surrenders. But yeah it can get unlucky with the timing when they start killing civvies but if you're fast it should work.

[noble pasture]

My game lagged the second I opened first door

I died to first shooter

(Not very nice words describing a school shooter) rolled a headshot on first bullet

[rocky plover]

Taking lighter armour or just a stab vest can also help you get there faster, also use the low/high ready for an additional movement speed. The AI teammates don't matter what they are wearing though, they match your speed.

[noble pasture]

Grabbed stab vest

[rocky plover]

I suggest you try the flash or stinger launcher very instant and don't need perfect aim like the beanbag does which can save you a couple of seconds. Also the VKS or TPL just wastes time for them to comply.

[acoustic ridge]

yeah i love m320 for non lethal

pretty much 4 garunteed arrests

[rocky plover]

Should be good, I have a very good success rate with light armour steel front only or sometimes light armour ceramic front and back.

[rocky plover]

Yeah so op, I prefer the m320 over the mirrorgun, since the AI kinda suck with m320.

[fringe siren]

What are all the new guns that are coming?

[acoustic ridge]

ai suck with m320 since they cant reload it lol

i wish u could tell them to deploy it (hold it out like shield) and they just shoot the first suspect they see with it

[rocky plover]

Ga51, M14, G3, mp5sd6, and uh forgot other

[rocky plover]

They fixed that but they still suck at aiming it.

[fringe siren]

G3? A big ass battle rifle???

[rocky plover]

They're all pretty much battle rifles sadly... Apart from mp5sd6 ofc

Mk17 is the other one

[fringe siren]

How is the mp5sd different from the other .300 BLK guns nvm it's 9mm

[winter pendant]

Smaller bullet and quieter pewpew

[fringe siren]

Room clearing with a scar heavy? Meme update

[noble pasture]

Bots can't use a shotgun for shit, they miss first shot and die

Its just fucking 18 yo's how do they keep nailing headshots?

[jolly verge]

Dont give it them unless you have veteran trait, they will miss a lot from shotguns

[rocky plover]

People seem to be hyped about the battle rifles but yeah doesn't really make sense for cqb.

[fringe siren]

The Bizon and Saiga would be wayyy better for this game's tiny maps

[noble pasture]

Also how did 18 yo's get a hold of AK's?

[rocky plover]

Even though they aren't exactly the full versions but are cqb versions of the gun, still kinda not their place for the maps xD

[noble pasture]

I thought ATF would bust your balls if you had something bigger than a 10 round pistol

[rocky plover]

It's funny but most of the time it's the other way round.

Because a pistol is way easier to conceal and most felonies are made with concealed weapons. So concealed permits are stricter.

[noble pasture]

So how did depressed 18 yo's get ak's?
