[sour sandal]

I have not really looked into small details. I have usually only done the missions

[limber escarp]

Me too, I leave the digging to those who like doing that

then I read what they came up with

[sour sandal]

Yeah. I also watch videos of environmental story telling

[limber escarp]

Theres a couple people who make youtube videos about on-going ready or not popular theorys that a lot of people agree with, one even had Void recommend watching it

[sour sandal]

Oh dang

[limber escarp]

My theory is that we have more corrupt FISA stuff coming in the future, maybe a DLC dedicated to it, just a theory though

[sour sandal]

Probably

[patent urchin]

we "judge" are just a puppet

[sour sandal]

Imma go play WWZ on the PS5. Talk to yall later

[limber escarp]

The second I started reading that judge was created by FISA to be a super soldier I just stopped trying to read into the rest of the theorys

[twilit mulch]

Judge or LSPD SWAT aren't puppets at all. Their job is to enforce the laws and that's exactly what they're doing.

[limber escarp]

One of the theories is that judge was brainwashed by FISA, but thats the only moderate one I've seen that isnt TOO much

[twilit mulch]

think u're referring to him being a former USIA (CIA) member in some capacity, not FISA

[limber escarp]

I read "judge, super soldier, created by, fisa" and just stopped there so idk

We dont know much about judge's past

[twilit mulch]

no evidence to support that theory. There is evidence for him working for USIA previously to being employed by LSPD

The three big unknowns imo are the centuries old CP ring, the MLO and Judge's history

[patent urchin]

yeah im more on judge related to mlo in the past in some way, never heard the super soldier theory

but there are theory that judge using lsd

[limber escarp]

and I stopped there lmao

[patent urchin]

getting S on hide and seek reveals something connecting to MLO

[limber escarp]

You telling me getting S on every mission wasnt just for an achievment?

[twilit mulch]

it was

[twilit mulch]

what does it reveal?

[patent urchin]

oh cannot post image here

[limber escarp]

Well I looked into it and I think I heard somewhere that if you get S on a mission it opens up more evidence in the evidence area

revealing info

[twilit mulch]

I got the S but never saw anything connected to MLO in Hide and Seek

[patent urchin]

once you S it

go to evidence locker and find top secret document titled mariposa plant

[twilit mulch]

tyvm for that, must look into it

[eager walrus]

And I don’t think any of that is going to be elaborated on again

If we continue with the theme of SWAT doing not SWAT things

Judge and his team will be deployed overseas

[twilit mulch]

when did LSPD SWAT do non-SWAT things?

[eager walrus]

Oil rig

[limber escarp]

To be honest yeah that is a COAST thing (Coast Guard)

[eager walrus]

Yes

[patent urchin]

what wrong mission

its the cherry farm mission you have to S for the mariposa plant

[twilit mulch]

the higher ups decided it was in LSPD jurisdiction

[limber escarp]

Yeah but you see thats just void finding a way to give SWAT a reason for being there

[eager walrus]

Rule of cool

[patent urchin]

the carriers of the vine, s this and you can read the mariposa plant document in evidence

[twilit mulch]

oh that makes more sense

seems like that connection has been removed in the current game version

it was there in early access period

[patent urchin]

Insurance
What appears to be classified USIA communications highlighting Raskins' role in some form of top-secret psychological warfare operation.
Text on back:
Brodie: The First Cohort was failure. We built monsters, and turned them loose in the dark. It's only a matter of time before the mariposas grow and you're hung out dry. I'll do it right this time. -E
In red marker: "Beaumont"

[twilit mulch]

that would make Judge part of the "first cohort". Is this still canon?

[patent urchin]

a thread from a year ago https://www.reddit.com/r/ReadyOrNotGame/comments/18rwxj5/the_ready_or_not_rabbit_hole_a_trail_of_evidence/

basically the evidences from missions

[twilit mulch]

cheers

[patent urchin]

the dorms mission in dlc also something

[barren cape]

How do i get S again?

[patent urchin]

dont kill anyone, collect all evidence

[barren cape]

Yeah i did and only got A+

[patent urchin]

some missions have soft objectives

or hidden obs

[barren cape]

yeah cant find them. Gas station where is soft obj?

[patent urchin]

dead person near the dog

and dead person at the start

also by dont kill anyone i mean dont kill the hostile too,

[barren cape]

yeah had both

yeah im only usiong pepper on my whole squad

[limber escarp]

For S you need to complete all objectives, no one dead (incap is fine), get all soft objectives, get all the evidence (weapons), report all suspects, and cuff/detain all suspects

Suspects alive, all reported, all in cuffs whether alive or incap, all objectives completed, all weapons bagged as evidence, all soft objectives, and thats an S

and no dead officers

[jolly verge]

You cant incap for S

[limber escarp]

Not anymore?

I remember I used to be able to

[jolly verge]

When?

[limber escarp]

It was back before home invasion and I think during home invasion

if they were incap but not dead it was still an S, I had it happen once or twice

[jolly verge]

Nah

[barren cape]

yeah i had all that

[limber escarp]

Are you sure?

Can you send a screenshot of your after action report

[jolly verge]

That only means you have someone incaped/killed

[barren cape]

I cant. I only had pepperball

[limber escarp]

Pepperball can kill

[jolly verge]

Well, you will need 1280 pepperballs to kill default suspect

[limber escarp]

Did you make sure to report the cashier?

[limber escarp]

I've killed a suspect with one mag of pepperball unmodded so idk

mightve been cause it was a headshot

[jolly verge]

Crossfire probably or your swat ai swap to pistol and kill someone

[jolly verge]

Nope, not possible

It's deal 1 damage per 4 balls

(per stun)

[limber escarp]

Well you cant just say THAT when I've had it happen unmodded and no trainer

[jolly verge]

I can

That means bot already been on low health

• pepper smoke itself deal some damage

[limber escarp]

Well there you go, but that doesnt mean its not possible

[barren cape]

No pistol on secondary.

[limber escarp]

I just said it happened

[lost inlet]

Suspect friendly fire.

[limber escarp]

^ that too

they can bleed out even if they arent incap or dead

[patent urchin]

i once shot a handcuffed hostile point blank with the shotgun pepperball mag, killed him instantly

and activated the devil

[narrow geode]

You mean beanbag shotgun
It becomes lethal if you aim for the head

[patent urchin]

yeah

[upbeat python]

what if you shoot bomb? it gonna explodes or nothing happen

[narrow geode]

What bomb?

If you mean the ones on relapse and elephant
They dont explode if you shoot them

[upbeat python]

ok

[twilit girder]

Do i need to buy the DLC's if I want to play online with others (im asking if people play the base game online)

[clever scarab]

if the host has the dlc anyone in the lobby can play the missions

[twilit girder]

oh ok

thanks

[delicate snow]

I hope I live long enough to see RON' swat ai be as good as SWAT 4 (2005)'s swat AI. I likely only have another 40-70 years :(

[bitter mason]

I mean tbf they're not far from each other
Swat 4 swat ai has its moments of being dumb

[shy tulip]

very dumb moments

I think they're pre-scripted for levels, so they're gonna be more consistent in that regard compared to RoNs AI which generates their own movements.

didn't stop em from one by one walking to their death on, idk what the name of it was, mission 3

[stone bay]

can anyone tell me what was the mod that made the suspect AI better? (lore accurate skills, reaction time, weaponry, making the number of them a bit too large)

[limber escarp]

You might be thinking of No crack for AI

That mod has a separate optional mod files in there to increase suspect size, but the mod makes the suspects lore accurate, have slower reaction time, and more

[stone bay]

i cant wait to do hide and seek while having to deal with 30 suspects (as if it wasnt hard enough already)

[limber escarp]

https://www.nexusmods.com/readyornot/mods/3169?tab=files

[stone bay]

yea i found it now

[limber escarp]

It makes them surrender quicker with some AI/Morale tweaks, but it doesnt affect terrorists when it comes to that

[stone bay]

👍

[limber escarp]

Also, in the optional files for the mod, the one you'd be looking for is "No crack for you, heart attack mode"

Keeps the normal no crack for ai settings, but increases the number of suspects

[stone bay]

i can imagine just me absolutely removing all my mags for my secondary and getting like 11 AP maps

[limber escarp]

Have fun, also pair it with No Mercy Mod and you got yourself some pretty fun gameplay

Same guy who made no crack made no mercy

[stone bay]

iirc it lets you kill terrorists with no penalty?

[limber escarp]

Yeah it's the one where you can kill any suspects without having to get them to comply and it'll still count as an S

[stone bay]

then it just makes S ranking too easy

[limber escarp]

But you cant shoot civilians, and for those that want to get them to comply they have a "Justified Kills" option where it makes it so itll penalize you if you shoot them without trying to get them to surrender

It also rids the purpose of arresting suspects or picking up weapons and still getting S, unless you want those removed too then they have an option for that

[stone bay]

oh ill install it later as i gotta deal with some stuff

well have a good day

[halcyon scaffold]

yo guys anyone know why i cant downlaod mods? it says subscription failed

[amber dock]

Use nexus mods, not mod io

[copper silo]

grrrrr i hate mod io

[sly nest]

[worn sapphire]

meow

[halcyon scaffold]

do u have to put every mod in externally or is there one built in?

[amber dock]

Yeah

[lone cloud]

cant wait for next ron update when we switch from modio to steam workshop

[harsh vigil]

A nightmare

[tired hamlet]

Is there any planned updates for RON ?

[native rune]

No, RoN has never received an update, not once in its entire existence

[vague sparrow]

Anybody notice anything weird during gameplay? Some suspects would have their guns holstered and don't use it but they still play their refusal to surrender lines. Keep yelling at the suspect and they surrender. What's happening?

[narrow geode]

?

I don't see anything wrong

[vague sparrow]

I meant the suspects

I had one suspect hiding but he had his gun was holstered

He didn't even take it out but refused to surrender

[narrow geode]

Yes they sometimes don't use their weapons
Not sure if thats supposed to happen
But
If they're refusing to surrender
Bash them
Or
Throw a grenade

[clever scarab]

think theres currently some weird edge case stuff going on with suspects surrendering, over the past couple days ive noticed more and more bugs around that

got interrupted cuffing a guy so i put him back down and took care of the issue, i go back and hes back on his feet being confrontational and wouldnt comply even with 3 dudes smacking him in the face over and over again lol

we shot him and didnt get penalized though so ig its something the devs considered could happen

[covert furnace]

I’ve had that issue a bunch too, it’s always punished me though

[crude sage]

Hey guys this is random but can anyone help me out, I'm looking for a photo of the evidence from 3 Letter Triad where its the canister, and the description confirms it was inert and not a real poison gas

If anyone could link me to that I'd be much appreciated!

[shy tulip]

It's in the locker room on the table, shouldn't be hard to miss it, unless you haven't finished(?)

idk the conditions to make it appear

[manic sun]

Is this part of the game or not?

I've gotten to the auction place inside the storage containers on the Hide and Seek mission but my ai teamates are refusing to follow me even with every command.

Their kinda just standing near the entrance. Is thin intentional?

[twilit mulch]

no, it's a bug. There are two entrances to the hidden chamber amongst containers. One of which (the one used straight from the warehouse) Is bugged.

the other entrance is in the warehouse corner, behind an open fence

SWAT AI can easily follow you there

[manic sun]

Oh ok

[nova ferry]

Will dlc maps ever release for free as time goes on or are they expected to always be paid content?

[sly scroll]

Doubt they would ever be released as free as then there would be a lot of unhappiness from the people who bought something only for everyone to get it a few months later.

[sharp zinc]

Will the dlc content be on sale for the spring sale?

[sly scroll]

Likely

[tacit gull]

Yeah that's just not happening, they do some giveaways every now and then though

[urban walrus]

Will always be paid unless the devs said otherwise, the upcoming dlc will be free tho.

[indigo perch]

i genuinely think it'd be really cool to have a planning stage, Which would give you a map rather on a white board for all members in game with you to see and make changes to for all the maps, A simple blueprint schematic wpuld subside honestly. Just think it'd be cool,

[native rune]

Am I wrong or is there literally a map of the level you can draw on and stuff, that in reality is so underused that it’s got Mandela Effect levels of people not thinking it exists?

[amber dock]

Nope

I’ve forgotten so many times it exists because it’s that useless

Like I out of old habits press tab because I keep thinking of the old Ron where it would show the objectives tab without the annoying tablet thing

Now when I press tab I’m gonna be useless to the team for 7 seconds cause I gotta pull out my iPad first

[stable kernel]

You can indeed "draw" on the maps before the mission

The accuracy of them is intentionally bad

[native rune]

I mean as someone who’s replayed the maps an uncountable amount of times, I don’t personally have any incentive whatsoever to draw anything out before I go, and I also doubt its utility as being informative or helpful to people who aren’t privy to the map/situation/strategy because the maps are dogwater and purposefully terrible or inaccurate anyways

[prime wing]

ready or not companion app

just hear me out

[magic pivot]

how does one equip a shield

[native rune]

Long tactical

[amber dock]

The problem is more so that the maps don’t have enough to warrant the need for preplanning at all

Like the lore reason of maps being bad by design because the building is outdated or whatever. With how gameplay flows etc it’s useless

[narrow geode]

I like the "map" provided in the port mission
You literally cant tell where anything is

[amber dock]

It’s faster to just explore map on your own rather then rely on blueprint

And like planning your raid etc is just for immersion purposes

Like nice, one team breach south side and one breach north side. But without other options to enter a building it’s just so not needed. And 5 player count also doesn’t help either

[magic pivot]

ive looked through all of it and i cant find it

[amber dock]

You gotta equip one first on your loadout

[magic pivot]

ive tried

cannot find th eshield

[amber dock]

What you mean you can’t find it? Like there’s no shield at all?

[magic pivot]

yeah

[amber dock]

Any mods of any kind?

[magic pivot]

nope

[amber dock]

Like on the loadout screen, long tactical is there, click on it and scroll to find ballistic shield

Like it can’t be any more clear on that it’s there

[narrow geode]

Right
When i first played on that map
I died a couple times because the level was confusing
I decided to check the map
And
It didnt help at all
Better learn it by playing it

[narrow geode]

Shield is trash anyways

[magic pivot]

i dont see it

hang on

restarting fixed

[sly scroll]

Shield is good for Non lethal

And RP

[limber escarp]

Shield is only good for being what it is, a shield

[copper silo]

everytime ive used a shield ive immediately had my legs injured

[sly scroll]

Then you are using it as a impenetrable wall, not as a shield

And you are not clearing a room right

[copper silo]

im batman

hallway gif

[sly scroll]

Good enough, use an M82A1

[copper silo]

No i bash suspects

Batman doesn't use guns

[sly scroll]

Batman uses .50 cal

[copper silo]

No

[sly scroll]

Yes

Do you go into gas station and start beating people with a gun stock

[copper silo]

nah i use my fists

im sifu from the game sifu

its not me being ready or not its the suspcts

[sly scroll]

I will get embed fail for retaliation

[narrow geode]

Shield ptotects well but landing shots with the pistol is ridiculously difficult

[copper silo]

intuition

[narrow geode]

Is the chance of breaking your leg while kicking a door random?

[real bison]

I think its the damage amount to your legs

The more you kick, the more damage it takes. And if you get shot in the leg you can't kick doors

[tacit gull]

No, if you get shot in the right leg you're just never going to open them

[jolly verge]

Your right leg must be red to break it by kicking the door

[wet thunder]

are stingers more effective than flashbangs?

[stone bay]

flashbangs are less effective outside iirc but stingers im not sure

i mainly use flashes as i have had a bad time with stingers

[jolly verge]

+2m more radius and high damage if exploded near someone

[wet thunder]

alr ima take stingers then

[tawny panther]

what about having your left leg shot

[tacit gull]

Doesn't do anything, it just slows you down

[clever scarab]

they can be but also carry the risk of injury or death if someone is too close to them when they go off

ive yet to get a civ down with them but prefer flashes because of that

[narrow geode]

I use lock pick gun in my runs
Best weapon in the game

[unborn pelican]

I should try a breaching shotgun only run in the gas station

[limber escarp]

Petition to make the lockpick gun an eye-pick gun

[unborn pelican]

Can you use battering ram on enemies

[wraith mantle]

I know you can use it on friendlies... Don't ask why...

[unborn pelican]

Does it kill

[jolly verge]

Melee attacks can hurt only players

[narrow geode]

You can push teammates around in the station

[clever scarab]

lock pick gun is incredibly slept on tbch

very nice to have one on your team

ive only had it happen a couple of times but picking a door does make some noise and can tip off suspects to spray through them

[jolly fractal]

Is there any way to skip missions?

[clever scarab]

like in singleplayer? i dont think so

though you dont need to get a good grade when you beat the mission to go onto the next

[jolly fractal]

It’s not that it’s too hard, I just crash every time I launch the mission.

I can’t even try to complete it lol.

[clever scarab]

😭

are you way below minimum specs?

[jolly fractal]

Probably.

[narrow geode]

I use it because the regular one takes time

[clever scarab]

you might be sol then

maybe one of those potato config ultra optimization mods could help?

[jolly fractal]

Looking through mods now.

[clever scarab]

yea

when i play w my friends we usually run it like 2 people w mirrorguns, 2 people w breaching tools
breaching guy carries a lock pick gun in case they dont wanna make a ton of noise

[sweet ether]

just tried Mirage at Sea, man that shit was rough

they executed 3 before i made it in time

though tbh i found that a lot of the rooms aren't nearly as mechanically divided as they should be. found myself yelling "Why can't I send them to clear this area separately??" in my head a few too many times

[granite peak]

does anyone know how to change the character voice when yelling pls it doesn’t work when i change it in multiplayer host with friends

[narrow geode]

Its a bug

It only works if you're the host and there is one more player with you

Gotta wait for them to fix it

[lofty path]

How big are the DLCs?

[sweet ether]

about 3-4 maps each

[lofty path]

Fair enough

They both worth the money?

[sweet ether]

Home Invasion is about going to the hood

[lofty path]

So shoot to kill. Got it

[sweet ether]

Dark Waters from what i've seen is about coastal calls. there's an active shooting on a yacht, an oil rig infiltration and something else i havent seen yet

[sweet ether]

and theres a map that will remind you of grove street

[covert furnace]

They’re both good, personally both worth the money

[stone stump]

$10 for 1 hour worth of content

[lofty path]

Sweet, cause payday is tomorrow

[lofty path]

||Kinda sounds like your mum||

[sweet ether]

i mean to be fair, there arent really any other games like Ready or Not. if youre looking for new maps its either these developer-curated ones or mods

for what it is i think its fine

[stone stump]

there are, but ready or not being the least shitty of them doesn't make the dlcs any more worth it

[sweet ether]

id rather have them than not

[stone stump]

thankfully enough you can play dlc maps without owning the dlc

you won't be able to try out the new drip, but it's not that great anyway

[sweet ether]

i mean, does anyone actually chill in vanilla drip?

i always mod my outfits

[lofty path]

Do either DLC have new guns?

[sweet ether]

i dont think so?

oh they do.

Home Invasion adds 3 weapons, dark waters adds 5

havent tried them yet though

oh nevermind i have, apparently the GA51 comes with Dark Waters

its my new main gun

does one or two bodyshot kills

[lofty path]

Yeah I keep seeing images of an LMG and I didnt know if it was legit or modded

[wet thunder]

7.62 my beloved

[stone stump]

no

[lofty path]

Go back under the bridge

[stone stump]

huh?

[covert furnace]

When they add the DLCs, they also add a little seperate content update with new guns, so you don’t get any new weapons with buying the dlc

[lofty path]

G O B A C K U N D E R T H E B R I D G E

[covert furnace]

Poor man was trying to help

[stone stump]

void likes to do some false advertising so they say new guns are part of the dlc (they aren't)

[unborn pelican]

Modded

[lofty path]

Right, thanks

[stone stump]

and comically enough they aren't even consistent with it

[sweet ether]

what mods do you guys play with?

[spring knoll]

home invasion has smaller-scale stuff. i don't like the first map but the second is excellent and the third is not bad.

dark waters is very bombastic and noticably harder. if you want more mechanics and visual spectacle, go for that one.

[lofty path]

Mechanics in what way?

[spring knoll]

the helicopter camera system, for one. you get a helicopter that flies around the dlc maps and a spotlight on enemies it spots.

[lofty path]

Oo

[spring knoll]

you can also get a thermal camera view by checking your phone but it's not super useful

[stone stump]

how is dark waters harder when they surprisingly tend to surrender there much easier (except for the last map)?

[spring knoll]

i'd say the maps are also the most interactive and interesting in terms of objectives etc

[spring knoll]

everyone surrenders quickly on every map if you play it right.

[sweet ether]

yacht mission was actually difficult.

you just get put on a 5-story yacht on an ACTIVE SHOOTER mission while there are very well armed guards moving around

[spring knoll]

it only becomes an active shooter mission if you don't arrest the sheikh fast enough

if you apprehend sahid before he can give the execution order, the guards will never shoot civs

[stone stump]

with tacticals sure

[sweet ether]

is he always in the same spot? i wasnt actually aware it was an active shooter so i took my time until i heard a gunshot and realised "oh shit"

[spring knoll]

he almost always begins around the middle deck but he can either go up or down. it's a little rng but i could catch him about 80% of the time on my runs.

[stone stump]

but on oil rig and yacht they genuinely just surrender very often when you just point your gun at them and yell

[sweet ether]

what entrance do you use?

[spring knoll]

this happens with every suspect on most maps if you play correctly and catch them off guard.

[stone stump]

yacht is not active shooter

[spring knoll]

just the default one. i go up the first flight of stairs and rush forward.

[sweet ether]

that funnily enough becomes an annoyance because NPCs in this game take fucking forever to surrender

[spring knoll]

it becomes active shooter after a certain amount of time has passed without sa'hid getting arrested

[sweet ether]

yeah they will start shooting the hostages

[stone stump]

not sure about the time limit, but that really sounds like a skill issue

[sweet ether]

i took my time not knowing im on a limit and they ended up killing 3 people before i finished the mission

[spring knoll]

???

whats my blud wafflin about 😭 😭

i'm explaining a literal mechanic of the mission

[twilit mulch]

ignore, who cares

[stone stump]

it becomes active shooter when you fuck it up

[spring knoll]

easiest blocklist addition of my life

[lofty path]

We're back to killing terrorists? SIGN ME THE FUCK UP

[spring knoll]

they're not terrorists

[sweet ether]

theyre qatari princes or whatever

[spring knoll]

sah'id is kidnapping and assaulting women on his yacht and his security are trying to get rid of the evidence

[sweet ether]

that have a BOLO on their megayacht because they had a few too many #MeToo complaints

[stone stump]

peak

[sweet ether]

i mean how tf are they even gonna get rid of the evidence???

[spring knoll]

anyways i'd say dark waters has better overall quality and is more worth it
but home invasion has narcos which is my favourite mission in the game

[sweet ether]

bird is already circling them, they know we are coming, but they arent cleaning all that blood in time

[spring knoll]

i assume they're killing the women to prevent them from testifying in court and hope to get rid of LSPD and gtfo before reinforcements arrive

then again my assumption storywise is that sa'hid gets away with it regardless because of his rich dad

[sweet ether]

i mean funnily enough the only reason why the LSPD took this situation seriously is because they started shooting people

and that girl called

[spring knoll]

they fucked up big time

[twilit mulch]

LSPD's not god, what would you have them do

[sweet ether]

i mean even if they do somehow kill the SWAT team, what then? they're still in US waters and are now being charged with murdering 5 cops

[twilit mulch]

COAST takes over

[sweet ether]

coast guard was already dispatched

[spring knoll]

i don't think any of them are thinking rationally
and neither are we really meant to think too hard about it

real truth is void just wanted a cool yacht mission with a decent premise so thats what we got

[twilit mulch]

the only reason COAST isn't in charge is because the yacht is docked and therefore in LSPD jurisdic(k)tion

[sweet ether]

i mean i like it because the enviroment itself makes it hard. yachts have a fuck ton of open hallways that are hard to control and then stairs on top of that

[spring knoll]

same reason i dont really care about the 'why is a 5 man swat team taking on a whole army' its because its a 5 player game but they still wanna do bombastic silly stuff

[twilit mulch]

manpower issues, underfunded department

[spring knoll]

yeah, i like the mission. it's not one of my favourites but i don't think there are any real bad maps in the game.

[twilit mulch]

u can hear NPCs talk about quitting the department on mass

back at the station

[sweet ether]

i mean i find that Yacht is a bit unoptimised. a lot of my time loss and risk came from the fact that large open spaces weren't divided into room sections like they are on other large maps

[stoic loom]

how long do you have until a flashbang goes off in this game?

[spring knoll]

i do generally have issues with the way swat AI clears very large rooms

but i don't remember any rooms on the yacht that are particularly huge

[sweet ether]

i mean, the rooms are long

sometimes divided into small sections but nevertheless still one room

so its hard to send the squad in front

[twilit mulch]

bar area is big, cinema relatively big too

[spring knoll]

eh, i guess. i didn't have too much of an issue with those areas personally but i can see ai getting wonky and overextending

[twilit mulch]

screw AI, real men clear maps alone

[halcyon scaffold]

just bought the home invasion dlc without looking at what is in it haha

[rancid wraith]

Full send all missions without looking at the briefing

[halcyon scaffold]

i do that anyway 🤣

[clear dust]

the secret achievement "Justice Undercover Depths Ghost In Elysium" spells out JUDGE?

just noticed that somehow

[left stump]

Yeah playing as john wick is the best way to play

[twilit mulch]

hear, hear

[civic sail]

WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[clever scarab]

solo is fun but so stressful

cant imagine going for s alone i barely get by getting a b on most maps lol

[thorny perch]

me hating my team ai so much I literally play solo just to feel at peace

[narrow geode]

How can you hate AI teammates
They don't listen to you
They don't react at all while getting shot at
They don't watch your back
What else do you want

[tacit gull]

You're in my spot, sir.

[wraith basin]

One of my motorcycle's stolen friend is here somewhere.

[stable kernel]

[tacit gull]

bro is NOT going to therapy

[stable kernel]

Not my boy Eli

[tacit gull]

not me going look how they massacred my boy when i see officer joon with prescott's skin on top of him

[stable kernel]

[amber dock]

All officers mid

The only officer you need is Garcia Garcia

[unborn pelican]

Davis is peak

[covert furnace]

I hope Prescott gets a loving family

[sweet ether]

i went back to the original maps and i have to say, now i understand why the DLC felt so much better

just did Home Invasion in its entirety + the first Dark Waters mission

DLC enemies actually behave like normal people and the missions don't feel Call of Duty like. People surrender a lot.

Meanwhile I just replayed Valley of the Dolls and shootouts happen so often it feels like a Call of Duty map

[pearl plinth]

anyone got some good performance settings?

[tacit gull]

This is all up to luck really, you can go through valley without anybody firing a shot if the RNG is with you, as the first suspect that starts shooting starts a chain reaction due to the game mechanics

[clever scarab]

i dont know if theres any difference with the ai in the dlc, its just getting lucky and not having them start a firefight after faking a surrender

[tacit gull]

dark waters has new ai features that are absent in the rest of the game

[sweet ether]

i mean this really depends on what your bottleneck is

if you have a worse CPU you'll be looking for lowering CPU heavy options. if you have a worse GPU then it's graphics settings

[sweet ether]

i mean thats not entirely my experience either. as I played Home Invasion I noticed suspects were far more aware of their situation eg. being outnumbered

valley suspects have a deathwish and will gladly 1v5 to their inevitable death

[pearl plinth]

I have a GTX 1650 and an I3

[indigo kiln]

I keep hearing chatter about a supposed "PVP mode" coming to ready or not? Are these rumours true as far as anyone knows?

[clever scarab]

i think a lot of this is also the angles on that map having them aggro on you because they catch you "off guard" since youre not aiming directly at them when they see you

so they just hard aggro and try to kill you no matter how outnumbered they are

[nova ferry]

Does gun choice matter in this game or is it just for variance? I dont mean shotguns and ARs, obviously those are different, but does it matter which AR I choose? All I feel is different gun models and sounds, do they have statistical differences?

[copper silo]

bullets and gun length 🤔

[amber dock]

The rumour is that it’s planned but low priority

[amber dock]

The rifles have different stats yes, BUT a very big emphasis on the BUT. I personally never understand this whole thing with choosing the right rifle for the mission. All do the same tasks and will incap someone if you fire enough bullets. If they don’t go down then it’s a skill issue on your part and no one can tell me otherwise

A gun is a gun

[native rune]

All rifles are fine for every situation you come across, and all smgs are just worse in the same situations

[edgy linden]

Smgs specifically can be better if a suspect is running up in your grill.

Or just easier corner peaks in tighter spaces

But I like to use the integrated suppressor AR so I have the punch of a rifle and shorter barrel (and it's quieter then other guns suppressed)

[sly scroll]

And for tight maps

Eg that one stupid Mind Jot server farm one

Can’t take an AR in there

[edgy linden]

I mean you can, you just have to make sure you're giving yourself plenty of space when you scan around a corner, which is technically what you're supposed to do anyways, but usually if I want to take control of the large server room I try to clear the 2nd floor first with the window that overlooks that big room so that way it's easier to spot and hit them.

Plus it's very risky to clear it without clearing 2nd floor first because if there are 1-2 or more suspects they have high ground suppression advantage into fatal funnels.

[rapid canopy]

Do I have to tie up dead guys? like why would I do it

[edgy linden]

Sometimes they play dead and get up and shoot your back if you're not prepared

It's not often tho

[strange depot]

Is it just me or do the swat ai just not pick up all the guns? Like for example they will only collect 1 gun from a suspect but leave the handgun. It’s very annoying

Also the team ai don’t function correctly on modded maps. When they start clearing they walk through the entire map until you tell them to stop. Bummer

[earnest oak]

dont you also get an achievment for doing so?

[edgy linden]

Ye

[sly nest]

It is basically 100% guaranteed if you C2 someone behind a door

I got the first arrest and that as both of my first achivements.

Becuase i C2d a dude in the freezer

But only a day later i got Due Process since the dude got Incapacitated, not "killed"

[prime mural]

Never had a problem running the short ars. How much longer is the short rifles compared to smgs anyway?

[prime mural]

Mostly just length and recoil. Some ars have oddly high recoil

[edgy linden]

No.

🫵

[sly nest]

If you C2 someone behind a door and they are "dead" I have never seen one that didn't get back up, the only time they don't is when they are incapacitated

maybe i am just weirdly lucky though

[edgy linden]

Nooh.

🫵

[split elk]

So like is dark waters worth it.

I'm looking at it and I've just finished home invasion and all the achievements associated with it. I liked it. I thought the AI was a bit stupid but there were 2 good maps in my view with excellent theming. (Narcos and Lawmaker)

I've played all the maps in public lobbies before but haven't really gotten round to properly work the maps (I've been in lobbies where the guys completed the entire thing in less than 9 minutes)

[spring knoll]

if you enjoyed home invasion you’ll probably enjoy dark waters, though DW is much more large-scale

[waxen eagle]

What does resolution scale in settings mean? If I crank it up to max I get better graphics?

[tawny bison]

How do I equip taser with the shield?

[round pagoda]

not a vanilla feature

[tawny bison]

Whaaaat?!

[round pagoda]

[tiny glade]

Should i try submachine guns i only ever used a rifle

[calm jacinth]

yes, especially in maps where the enemies don't wear body armors

[round pagoda]

"should I try [insert weapon]?"
i'm sorry to be a dick but these types of questions are dumb

like, just play the game

try everything why do you need to ask a discord server

[spring knoll]

real

[thorny perch]

SPC-9 Full auto

trust me

[narrow geode]

Should i try this game called ready or not

[thorny perch]

no

[tacit gull]

i'm up readying my not

and by not lets just say hehe my judge

[stone bay]

in short you're readying up your judge

[patent urchin]

the taser with shield is a mod

[tacit gull]

rather its a feature the devs forgot about

[sly scroll]

Realistically we can just give the ai secondary’s with no ammo

[clever scarab]

she be judging if im ready or not before she breach and clear

[covert furnace]

She’s breaching… I think that implies something else

[clever scarab]

?

[spring knoll]

?

[narrow geode]

Question mark

[unborn pelican]

The mark of questions

[narrow geode]

🦐

[sweet ether]

btw, are the devs planning to do something with the giant cliffhanger on Port Hokan? i mean that container where Judge argues with orders. it was such an unexpected event yet the game ends there and nothing comes of it. DLC doesnt touch the storyline at all

[unborn pelican]

All we know is that the fisa agents are corrupt

[spring knoll]

last map of dark waters pretty clearly continues it

[sweet ether]

oh i havent gotten to that one yet my bad

[spring knoll]

and anyway the unanswered cliffhanger in port is pretty thematically fitting to me. i’ve always liked it hovering over the game like an unanswered question.

[sweet ether]

okay im in quick play right? im getting to Twisted Nerve, so im changing up the squad's loadout.

their loadout ALWAYS JUST RESETS as I'm changing it. Literally. I give them NVGs, i switch to another character, then back to the previous one, and all their loadout is gone.

what is happening im losing my mind. can i just not edit their loadouts? their visual customisation changes fine but the loadouts just always. reset.

[earnest phoenix]

has anyone tried downgrading the game to pre-1.0 recently

does it work nowadays

[tacit gull]

it should

[earnest phoenix]

is it just the depotdownloader thing like all other games

also were game modes like active shooter removed in 1.0 or was it prior i cant remember

[stone stump]

active shooter is still a thing on certain maps

but yes, the gamemode selection was removed in 1.0

[spring knoll]

the gamemode selection was never fully functional
gamemodes are now map dependent

[woven breach]

Is queing up commands bugged? I tell blue squad to do X thing and queue it up when it comes to executing instead they just fall in, in this scenario i was clearing tunnels on twisted nerve, blue was at the garage and red at the start of the tunnels in the house in the back garden. I tell blue to execute then red. Instead both squads just fell in to me

[ripe stirrup]

Yall my game is basically vanilla

I only got 74 mods installed

[jolly fractal]

You can get both squads to execute at the same time.

As for that glitch, I get something similar, but not identical.

[woven breach]

Posted a video in my bug report on 23megabytes a second, dunno about other maps. They both execute with gold command but then one squad joins up with the other instead of holding the room

[wraith arrow]

Does anyone remember what the Key was to remove the HUD?

[stable kernel]

F3

Or alt+F4 if that doesn't work

[wraith arrow]

[stable kernel]

I am technically correct

[wraith arrow]

Yeah... I want believe

[jolly fractal]

My only issue with 23MB/S is that I can’t enter the game room.

[covert furnace]

whats everyones preferences on nvg phosphorus color?

[stone bay]

white because i found green a bit weird (not trying to offend anyone)

[jolly fractal]

White is better, but green feels more fun sometimes.

At least in my opinion.

[edgy linden]

That's colorist

!!!!! 🟢

[tired jungle]

White

[prime moss]

Greetings I was trying to play ron on my deck but ...well I don't know the ptt button lmao

[junior adder]

Ron on steam deck?

[tacit gull]

I don't think there is one on controller, i might be wrong

[junior adder]

white feels so much cleaner

[tacit gull]

[junior adder]

with the green one, their is like random obstruction

[tacit gull]

VOID INTERACTIVE GIVE ME AMBER AND MY LIFE IS YOURS!!!

[vague sleet]

Oil Rig is undeniably the most difficult mission in the fps genre, because of how well civilians are hidden.

[spring knoll]

oil rig last civ hunt is atrocious on solo

[vague sleet]

Fuck yeah it is!

[spring knoll]

i usually find them around the corner right behind a door on the bottom floor

honestly imo after you bring order to chaos trailer units should come in and pick up remaining civs

[prime moss]

Yup
Just binded one of the back buttons to v

[honest atlas]

Yeah

For realism's sake should the game tell the player whether or not they've cleared all hostiles for certain maps?

[gaunt gale]

What

[covert furnace]

Amber phosphorus, it’d be good for those maps where you have low light as opposed to no light

[lilac plaza]

Hey, anyone know why I can only restrain certain civs/suspects?

[gentle void]

Can there be 3 bombs in elephant?

I think i just encountered one

[gentle void]

Not possible, all civs and suspects are subject to be restrained

[lilac plaza]

Not sure. Just played the 23 Megabytes mission and it only allowed me to manually restrain a few of them. My AI team had to get the rest

[spring knoll]

were you standing in the right spot

were they coughing from gas

[lilac plaza]

Yes I was standing in the right spot. I couldn’t tell them to turn around or order them or anything. No gas coughing

[empty jetty]

What happened to this game. theres actual DLC?

[unborn pelican]

2 dlcs

[empty jetty]

2 expensive

[prime wing]

i mean, there was a sale a while back, 2 for the price of one iirc.

or you can join someone that has the dlc

and play it for free

[pure blaze]

it was just home invasion

[tame coyote]

its $10

RoN is $50 😭

[empty jetty]

not in AUD

I bought into this game thinking it wouldnt pull this crap. But eh, Trust goes too far these days.

[umbral oar]

what

[covert furnace]

In AUD it’s like, $18 vs 70$ isn’t it? It really isn’t that bad…

[patent urchin]

Is it really considered expensive

[harsh vigil]

For a DLC, is moderately priced

[tawny panther]

:( worth it probably

[prime wing]

DLC was a known thing

for like, 4-5 years

[spring knoll]

actually insane message

'pull this crap' and its just new content

[empty jetty]

from an insane person, no actually not insane at all

when did you even?

ah 2024 RoN'er

[patent urchin]

its additional content, not micro transaction trap

[empty jetty]

is RoN on special? All these new people trying to tell me something.

[spring knoll]

theres no way theyre checking profiles 😭

[patent urchin]

new boy i was there before they even change the vineyard from mafia to a cult

[spare marten]

I only use white for various reasons, first off have a wider fov is a win and the image looks much cleaner. Secondly I have used nvgs irl (job related) and the ones in game (green) I feel needs a lil touch up. But both are an improvement from what we had back whne this game was a beta in which I tested them.

[empty jetty]

Jan 28 2025 proves that

[patent urchin]

maybe because i dont care about discord community until now
thoughts?

[empty jetty]

Obviously friendo.

[patent urchin]

[empty jetty]

Just dont.

[tacit gull]

What is bro yapping about

[patent urchin]

anyways you are just straw manning with this old people vs new people

[tacit gull]

RON was supposed to get expansions even back in 2019

[empty jetty]

expansion, not DLC map packs.

[tacit gull]

They changed to DLCs, but additional paid content was always going to be a thing

[patent urchin]

expansion will also be paid contents

[empty jetty]

Im not paying for maps, I would pay for a pack. But not 15 bucks a map. That is utter BS

[tacit gull]

It's not 15 bucks a map lmao it's 10 bucks total and it's about 6 on a sale for 3 maps

[empty jetty]

13.99AUD

[tacit gull]

still not 15 bucks a map

[patent urchin]

that's cheap

[tacit gull]

check your math

[empty jetty]

rounding up to make it a lesser awkward number.

[tacit gull]

Also, nobody's making you buy them, you can just play them in multiplayer

VOID consider the first 2 DLC the first expansion essentially

since they gave them to supporters

[empty jetty]

lemme hear that from them

[patent urchin]

and you can also download modded maps

[tacit gull]

what lmao

[empty jetty]

ooooh speaking of, me and mates couldnt connect unless we ran in 'safe mode'

2 fresh installs and both complaining about mods

[tacit gull]

Then you have mods

[empty jetty]

fresh.

[tacit gull]

Mods you didn't delete lmao

Check your folder, all of you

[patent urchin]

or, you can turn off checksums in settings

[empty jetty]

what folder would that be

[tacit gull]

Otherwise turn off pack checksum in the settings

[empty jetty]

they're fresh installs

[tacit gull]

PAKS in the content/readyornot/ main install folder

[patent urchin]

you should know by now all those can be solved by turning off checksum

[empty jetty]

ah yes. of course. lets decrease the integrity of our systems because VI had it right before they released the game 😉

[patent urchin]

mods can use symlink

[empty jetty]

sounds like a future zero day to me

[patent urchin]

who knows what kind of mod you guys have before fresh reinstall and how you connect it

[tacit gull]

what the fuck are you talking about

[spring knoll]

anyway ive owned RoN since hotel didnt have textures so idk where youre getting your info from

[patent urchin]

he checking discord join date assuming everyone like him

[spring knoll]

i own supporter edition and got both DLCs for free

[empty jetty]

lol

[spring knoll]

RoN has the strangest players istg

[empty jetty]

hol up friendo

[patent urchin]

im surprised its not weirder

[empty jetty]

ooof. what was that. lol

[spring knoll]

[empty jetty]

I had a legit complaint.

but you nu-kids on the blok wanna try counter, thats cool

[tacit gull]

This is bait

[empty jetty]

no, this is the end of the conversation.

[spring knoll]

lowest hanging bait ever

[tacit gull]

holy cringe

[spring knoll]

I spoke in proper punctuation and checked your 'new kid' server join dates. I win.

[empty jetty]

mwah.

[spring knoll]

[copper silo]

Why so serious

[prime wing]

not so sure about free

more like, you paid up to 40 bucks to cover dlc at best while they decided to figure out pricing

[tacit gull]

blackbird yelling out the quiet part

[prime wing]

dlc can be free as long as you join someone

its not about playing harder

its about playing smarter

[spring knoll]

fair! i was just following up on what the other dude said

[amber dock]

WHAT!? LOUDER

[rigid depot]

How do people know that judge’s name is David Beaumont?

[amber dock]

Says it in his file

And the description of the game on steam

[vague isle]

what is yalls favorite mission?

[tacit gull]

probably leviathan

[amber dock]

Naaa my favourite is homeland

[tacit gull]

afghan better

[amber dock]

Naaaa

[tacit gull]

fine then what about bloc

[amber dock]

5/10

[tacit gull]

nah

i aint gonna take that

[clever scarab]

when i recently reinstalled i had some corruption issue that spat out this error when i tried to play with my friends

verifying integrity fixed it

[empty jetty]

but.. fresh. installs. had to go safe mode/no mods to actually connect to each other. kind of gives docking a bad name.

[clever scarab]

i was also effectively a 'fresh install,' the last i played was on a completely different computer

its not a super deep issue

[empty jetty]

i know, we finally fixed it that way

[wet thunder]

i feel like no matter how quick i go, how many rooms i skip, i CANNOT do elephant without a hostage being executed

should i be using supressors or like what

or using a stab vest instead of light vest

[static anchor]

what are the bestload outs for your npc team??

[lime stone]

Does anyone know what the official keybind is for Point Shooting?

[clever scarab]

p, but you need specific optics to do it iirc

[lime stone]

See this is where I am confused. There's the optic option which usually accounts for variants. (Such as the Irons on the top of the Elcan scope)
And the option generally to cant the gun, get eye over bore and aim either with muscle memory or a laser

Okay. I got it eventually. O for canted and P for variable

I know we aren't getting higher than a D when I see someone ready up with a shotgun.

[limber escarp]

Not true, I use a shotgun when solo and I get A+

[spring knoll]

shotguns are like
ridiculously effective

[limber escarp]

The B1301 "Entryman" Shotgun is my go-to "one and done"

and I aint complaining

[tacit gull]

m1014 gang rise

[limber escarp]

Where they at

Kidding

[tacit gull]

b1301 is cool and all but can your operator hold 8 fucking shells in his palm with it

[spring knoll]

this thing is a monster as well

you can remove someone’s head from across the map with this game’s shotguns it’s pretty wild

[pure blaze]

I didn't say it's bad when solo or ineffective. I'm joking about how often the people using them get penalized for unlawful use of force.

The urge to blow people up is too strong it seems

[limber escarp]

Well that depends on the person, when I run with a group I don't act that urge out, but on no mercy thats a different story

[spring knoll]

tbh this is why i never engage with public multiplayer

it sounds miserable

[paper topaz]

funnily enough, one of the hardest missions so far on my no AI pistol only playthrough was rust belt, which I considered very easy on my original playthroughs

is clemente the first mission with truly professional enemies or do the mindjot enemies also use professional AI

[paper topaz]

sins of the father pistol only is so much easier than rust belt wth

I never engage with public too, only #🔎looking-for-players

anyone know if theres a way i can play solo / singleplayer without a team?

or just tell your ai squad to hold at spawn

[limber escarp]

or

Ehh it depends, cause some people might like certain cosmetics more than others while some people think some cosmetics people have are dumb, just go and look on Nexus

It's good because it penetrates armor and has higher mag capacity, it's only downside is it's harder to control with rapid fire

[copper silo]

yea use a five seven if you want a lame looking gun

[narrow geode]

Who doesnt love running out of ammo after like 7 shots

[edgy linden]

Some outfit combos match well with it if you tactical barbie enough

[wraith basin]

Yeah BORTAC

[wraith basin]

Insert the toy story gif

[thorny perch]

I want men in my life

[edgy linden]

I want soda

[tiny glade]

Whats wrong with it at least i aint do it on the collage map

Wish the school shooters ingame were a little more realistic and under alot of surpreseion they just kill em self

[thorny perch]

Yeah like if they know they gonna die it’d be pretty interesting for them to have a chance to self end

[glacial flare]

Are the hair physics bugged in the current update?

Most characters look like they are balding

[junior adder]

same

[tawny panther]

I love men

[paper topaz]

somehow struggled more with rust belt than neon tomb for my pistol only no teammates challenge

[thorny perch]

i just packed a shit ton of JHP and went very slow

[paper topaz]

something tells my buy cheap buy twice is going to be one of the bigger jumps in difficulty compared to normal

[paper topaz]

why JHP when they have body armor?

[thorny perch]

oh yuh

limb shots ig

[paper topaz]

you incapacitated purely with limb shots? mildly bonkers

then again Quadamah managed to take an entire five-seven magazine with AP

[thorny perch]

i do remember packing purely JHP

[thorny perch]

plot armor

[paper topaz]

nah most other people were neck/head shots, couldnt take the easy headshot against him so I spammed torso and I guess kept hitting the thickest parts of the armor/the least critical parts of his body

whats funny about body armor is suspects with body armor tend to die at a much higher rate than those without because they take so much more to go down and the easy torso incapacitations dont incapacitate

[tacit gull]

I'm pretty sure most suspects get incapped with 2 rifle rounds to the chest

[paper topaz]

depends on rifle but yeah... that does not apply to pistol rounds

[tacit gull]

I think the suspects on neon have armor vests* that completely block pistol caliber

[paper topaz]

yeah they have level IIs oro IIIAs iirc

do the dealership suspects have vests?

[chilly anvil]

Is there a mod that removes gas mask overlay? Only found I found on Nexus wasn't updated for Dark Waters.

[upbeat shore]

This one does still work:

https://www.nexusmods.com/readyornot/mods/4229

[round pagoda]

literally unplayable
trash game

[soft mortar]

was judge a navy seal
alot of the vanilla uniforms have a aor option
it's theorized that judge is a gwot veteran
and the dark waters dlc exists

imo alot of the raids we do here seem pretty direct action and not actual swat raids

the only thing stopping this is that judge hadn't made a book and constantly bragged about being one on a podcast

[jolly verge]

It's 2-3 shots to incap with low calibers

[jolly verge]

Yes, some of them wear level 2 armor

[polar night]

Why are the women on carriers of the vine so good at aiming? Elaine got them doing rifle training between torture sessions?

[prime wing]

I think the map answers that the moment you spawn

[polar night]

Yeah answers it with a .762 right through my face

[fiery sage]

any tips on neon? been stuck on it for a few months

[golden umbra]

scatter your team

since theres a lot of enemies around the map

[summer marlin]

bro valley of dolls is painful

[polar night]

Those security guys don't fuck around

"The money or the right thing?"

Bro made his choice when he came into work today

[uneven hazel]

Do suspects sometimes unalive themselves during missions?

[polar night]

In certain missions

[thorny perch]

Typically terrorists I think

[uneven hazel]

I heard a loud gunshot while searching one of the buildings in Twisted Nerve and later found a dead guy with a revolver next to him in one of the rooms.

[polar night]

Brixley does too

[thorny perch]

oh yeah they end themself too

tho I think its less often?

I've only had it happen like 2-3 times

[polar night]

I haven't seen the meth heads commit self die

but it makes sense

[narrow geode]

Yes

[polar night]

TOC... Do me a favor...

[narrow geode]

Wait wrong video smh

[polar night]

How much psychic damage did u take when playing RoN

[wet moat]

S Ranking it is a prick

[grave crown]

yeah usually when u taze them. I let them do it with pleasure

[rigid depot]

now that I think of it, Ready or Not is like how my school performance has been this year. First few missions, S and A+. After that it all went downhill

[golden umbra]

lol

[noble pasture]

how do I delete a customisation preset?

[noble pasture]

nvm, didnt see the delete button

[ripe stirrup]

I got a question

Why is it when I throw a flash or a nade it flies slowly?

[tacit gull]

Is your game running at a good framerate?

[ripe stirrup]

Most of the time

[tacit gull]

All physics are tied to your framerate, so if it dips they're gonna slow down

[ripe stirrup]

Ok

thanks for helping

[glacial flare]

Did they downgrade the game visuals for this update?

You see it clearly on lod of characters and rocks in mission rust belt

Also some textures seem lower res now too

[quasi thorn]

what rifles would yall like to see added to the game?

[limber escarp]

The ~~game ~~engine changed from Unreal 4 to Unreal 5

UE5 is made for animation/movies, UE4 is made for games, so it's caused a lot of issues

[clever scarab]

personally id love to see a sig sg553 aesthetically, but gameplay wise i think we need more higher powered stuff

the game is already swamped with .223 derivative rifles that perform very similarly in practice

[limber escarp]

Me personally I don't have an issue when I use the MK1 for supporter edition or the SR-16

[quasi thorn]

Maybe they could add the sig spear?

Or maybe the desert tech sabertooth 308 dmr? I think both would be cool options

[clever scarab]

sig spear would be kinda lame imho

[limber escarp]

Have fun https://www.nexusmods.com/readyornot/mods/5450

[clever scarab]

you can already larp as the army with your clothing and weapon choices and that rifle is so ugly to me lol

im one of two people whod actually want to see it but more 90s-2000s gear would also be cool

[limber escarp]

I think they need to focus on adding more gear, cosmetics, and maps with AI tweaks then new weapons, I already feel like we have a full arsenal with a ton of imo un-needed weapons that barely get used. Just let the adding of weapons stick to mods

[quasi thorn]

In that regard perhaps something like the 308 tavor would be a better option?

[clever scarab]

maybe, but then my worry would be that itd make every other .308 option obsolete because of how short it is

i think itd be neat to have a patch dedicated to longer ranged options and having the magnified optics be less clunky to use

like some kind of low capacity self feeding rifle or maybe even a bolt gun with an uncomfortably long barrel for cqc but insane muzzle velocity relative to everything else in the game

so itd be an almost guaranteed one shot no matter what and encourage you to peek the longer sightlines

[quasi thorn]

I think it would be cool to see the bushmaster acr in the game

[limber escarp]

Then we'd need maps for that honestly, otherwise it probably would be an un-needed or overlooked feature, we have a bolt action rifle with a long-range scope and you can barely use it at all

If they ever release an option for there to be a "sniper" position similar to SWAT 4 that'd be useful

[clever scarab]

there are some where id argue theyd be pretty good but thats true

although you could argue as is rn weapon usage is very contextual already

it feels like youre kinda gimping yourself running anything less than a carbine because the smgs lack so much reach and so many maps have at least 1 sightline where it leaves me regretting bringing one

which isnt necessarily a bad thing but still

[limber escarp]

The only map I've seen a long range scope/long range rifle ever come even close to being useful would be the oil rig, cheryessa farm, or the car dealership

But even then it's always close quarters, so I agree it'd be a neat idea but we would definitely need to implement more things for that

I'm kinda bummed the dark waters dlc didnt come with an option to be a swat sniper from the helicopter, just an FPS dropping camera that you have to open the tablet to see

[quasi thorn]

I think it would be cool to see more modular rifles like the sabertooth from desert tech or the acr. Also do you think anyone remembers the acr outside of cod or do most people know about it because of the classic modern warfare trilogy?

[clever scarab]

most people know it from cod cause irl it didnt really go anywhere

[limber escarp]

I think voids trying to stick close to realism to the best of their ability of what SWAT would potentially use IRL, so thats why those types of guns are mods on nexus incase someone wants to

[clever scarab]

which is why you can run something like a g3 or g36 lol

i think they just add stuff they think is cool

[quasi thorn]

In that regard I guess the sabertooth would make more sense then as DT has said the rifle is in competitions for adoption I’d guess by Leo’s or foreign militaries

[limber escarp]

Maybe, but like you said its in competition for adoption, so who knows

[quasi thorn]

It’s in competition so it’s certainly a possibility

The sabertooth can have multiple barrel lengths. 11.5 16.5 and 20 inch barrels. and that’s not mentioning the 308 dmr version. I think it would be cool

Also I’ve heard about a Turkish clone of the elcan which is on par if not better than the actual elcan. It’s called the avci.

Do you think a elcan compeditor would make sense to add?

[noble pasture]

A suspect sawed off my leg with a smg

What the fuck is armor even doing when suspects aim exclusively for the limbs?

[hazy shuttle]

Report it to HR

[noble pasture]

He deadass bypassed my armor with the Tarkov leg melter strat

[wraith basin]

Thats their plan literally. #🎨ron-screenshots-and-art message

[noble pasture]

So 2 suspects were in the basement, and 1 was in the deadzone on the stairs

[dull furnace]

Yeah I did and they said I called Wendy’s instead. They definitely are good at hiding things

[river tide]

put armor on your arms 🤷‍♂️

[dawn gate]

Is it just me who thinks this, or are magnified optics in ron kinda useless

i mean, they take up a large portion of the screen, and most enemies you encounter are a small distance away

I've found point aiming with a laser to be way more reliable even at longer ranges on maps like port hokan

[tired jungle]

They are very useless thus the zoom optics are all LPVO's. The problem is that variable zoom hasn't been implemented yet... Apparently not very high on their priority list so might have to wait some time

[noble pasture]

Hardcore run tips?

My biggest hurdle is handling officer mental health after killing 30 suspects

[wraith basin]

(if you mean ironman mode) Well, having map knowledge is quite crucial when you play ironman. What I ran, was the basic gear with MK18 on 3 guys (myself included), one shield and one shotgun. You can always replay the easy maps with non-lethal sets to gain their sanity back. Ceramic armor full, some wedges, C2, one guy with ram and other with breaching shotgun. Also, have someone to have the flash launcher. Flashbangs in general and stingers with good quantity helps alot.

Try to have atleast one officer with Armorer trait and one with Negotiator, because those help quite alot.

[noble pasture]

My issue is if swat AI gets to a hostage first they also kill the hostage

I seen now TOC announces if a hostage situation starts

[wraith basin]

Do you use mirrorgun? With that you can see those situations and just flash the rooms, if there are hostage situations. Its not always so simple thing to counter, but mirroring every door basically helps you quite far with that.

[noble pasture]

I uses mirror gun but last hostage situation was on streamer

A gangster took Michael's mom hostage, I gassed both

[wraith basin]

Try to rely on flashbangs more. See if that helps you. I mean ALOT more.

[noble pasture]

Should I bring the shotgun?

[tired jungle]

Bang bang

[wraith basin]

With one of your squadmates, yesss.

[tired jungle]

6 flashbangs

[wraith basin]

I'll bang you

[tired jungle]

3 ar mags

[tired jungle]

Hello is this human resources

[noble pasture]

Just 3?

[tired jungle]

Yeah?

[noble pasture]

Thats kinda little

[tired jungle]

You're running semi right

[wraith basin]

Then you can have alot of flashbangs, which is quite nice.

[noble pasture]

Yes

[subtle tapir]

how do i lower stress level of my ai officers

[noble pasture]

But because I aint straight I dont shoot straight either

[noble pasture]

Gas station S ranks

[jolly verge]

Arrest more civi/suspects alive

[subtle tapir]

no actually i failed ides of march multiple times in a row

all of them are now in crisis and 3 in therapy

[tired jungle]

Just... Arrest more suspects
