[buoyant pecan]

Low key wish we could play the night variant of Cherryessa Farm again

[wraith gale]

the child being unconscious is actually more messed up depending on how you look at it

[delicate vapor]

A child in general in a drug house is wild

[buoyant pecan]

*halfway write it out of the game
If I remember correctly the needle is still there, she’s just completely unconscious

[wraith gale]

but i mean, he has a point. thats one of the only changes i disagree with

[opaque zealot]

have youn not heard the 911 calls+ the child having a seizure is still staying ingame, theres still phones ringing by corpses of families desperately trying to call their already dead loved ones, and much more

[kind anchor]

yes

[buoyant pecan]

I get it tho it was probably more disturbing

[opaque zealot]

plus all the implied horrors through stuff like amos volls disregarded tapes left on the bed, his poaching on janey trying to exploit his own daughter, and more

[kind anchor]

real dude

[verbal dagger]

the child will still be in the game but she will be unconscious now instead of seizing

[delicate vapor]

The whole point of the argument though is pointless because it will all be implemented in the game for PC players if people really care that much they're will be someone putting out a mod to restore it

[hollow lotus]

AI slop art, random arbitrary censorship, still no PvP, and who knows what the next update will break in terms of community mod development. It's a bit tiresome all together. On their own its like meh. But so annoying knowing the update's gonna break everything and random shit is gonna be changed. Who's to say more random shit won't be changed? They already canned the varied modes for each map cutting replayability down a bunch

[opaque zealot]

^ this + the changes arent that major

it's still an unconcious child who Od'd, if anything the implication is worse bc if she isn't even siezing anymore, it means she could just be dead atp

[wraith gale]

kam has already said nothing else will be changed, they passed console certification so they wont be forced to change anything

[kind anchor]

and honestly the the new shield animation its snappy and ass

[delicate vapor]

I mean I know it takes a tiny bit of the extreme out of the game but if you really that badly want to see a child having a seizure or kidnapped abused woman bongas then I think you just need to take a minute to reflect

[verbal dagger]

it's not about the implication, it's about how hard it punches you in the gut to see that happening ya know?

[compact kiln]

Ive also noticed one of the most common arguments from the censorship defenders on this issue is to paint anyone upset about the toning down of these details as some kind of deranged psychopath or sick fetishist

[verbal dagger]

that's because they don't have a better argument to make jailbot

[kind anchor]

uk what add me bro your smart so is jailbot

[eternal crow]

This-

[verbal dagger]

why thank you, done and done

[wraith gale]

theres no one to blame other than console execs and the board rating execs

[twin bramble]

This game has always been about being a SWAT member and seeing first hand what they have to deal with. I cannot believe would rather complain about things being tweaked that they’re being FORCED to change so the game can get on console. Literally waited years for this and people still find a way to complain. It’s like people forget that the point of this game is to see what a SWAT officer goes through. “Don’t forget our mission is NOT to create widows and orphans. It is to bring order to chaos”. Some people just want to mag dump a corpse. Go get mentally checked

[hollow lotus]

For now. Like I said, they previously canned all the variations for map modes that killed a lot of replayability

[opaque zealot]

as much as i get it, at the same time I feel like it doesn't make too much of a difference. Although i also get the whole argument that clothing the human trafficking means they're sorta toning down the brutality, it's still gonna be unnerving to look at them since from what they're saying, its just slightly covering a few areas

[compact kiln]

Proving my point

[opaque zealot]

they're probably gonna still be heavily revealing, just w/ the private parts covered a bit more

[still willow]

I mean why waste ammo on a dead suspect lol

[wraith gale]

anything else they change is VOIDS own doing, kam said "this was the start and end of the censorship"

[verbal dagger]

people want to see what people go through in as realistic a way as possible, there wass a guy in here earlier in the weekend who said he was a cop and he wanted people to see what he has to go through which is why he didn't want the game censored

There's no one talking about this happening who wants console players to not have the game, people just want the game to still be what it is

[opaque zealot]

my biggest gripe is just that people are treating this as if it fully impacts the story itself and somehow breaks it. The loss of shock value def takes some aspect of it's impact away, but the story still has plenty of other aspects scattered throughout the map to regain that weight

[eternal crow]

If for whatever reason they ever rollback on that, the backlash will be much more severe.

[kind anchor]

bro its hell divers 2 allover again look and the screen shots that recent revs

[wraith gale]

review bombing is immature

[twin bramble]

Ya but you’re mad at the wrong people. Maybe get mad at the console execs forcing a censor not the dev team who has to bend over backwards and comply with every demand or the game gets axed its ridiculous

[kind anchor]

BRO I WAS MAD AT CONSOLE THEN IM TOLD NOT TO THEN TO BE MAD

[delicate vapor]

Review bombing isn't good but I think it genuinely doesn't matter it's a game that's been positive and good it's just haters hatin

[delicate vapor]

Go for a walk lmao

[opaque zealot]

this aswell, it's the international review boards who want console censored in different regions that void has to deal with or else they cant release the game at all

[eternal crow]

Bro tbf the people on console don’t want it censored either

[kind anchor]

bro their are dudes with 800 hours pissed off

[opaque zealot]

legit u shouldnt be getting this heated at a videogame

[eternal crow]

Nobody asked for it

[verbal dagger]

Yeah and I completely agree with that, it takes the emotional punch away from it and generally makes the game less terrifying and anxiety inducing than it is, at the same time I'm aware that certain things just aren't going to be allowed on console

to me it just seems like there are changes which shouldn't have to be made like toning down gore and taking away the seizing kid

[delicate vapor]

So? What does that change lmao

[kind anchor]

you said haters hatein

[wraith gale]

huntr explained it very well, no game thats rated AO can be sold on consoles. they did the absolute minimum to get the rating up from AO.

[finite forge]

As a person who hasn't played yet, let's all calm down it's not over yet 🐴🥀

[delicate vapor]

Yeah you can have 5k hours in a game and still hate

[hollow lotus]

I'm surprised people care more about seeing that schizo dude's johnson over the AI art being used everywhere, and lack of replayability, glitchy loadout and customization saving

[kind anchor]

we always supported the game then the just change sum we dont whant

[eternal crow]

Your “about me” is really charming

[still willow]

Let's breach together gng

[eternal crow]

😒

[verbal dagger]

i do wanna give it a chance, at the same time i think it's ridiculous to change a game that i paid for years ago, i think the anger is valid

[kind anchor]

add me back dudez

[finite forge]

I paid 73 dollars I don't wanna be mad.

[still willow]

The ai song slaps ngl

[delicate vapor]

Oof 73 is wild

[finite forge]

🧑🏽‍🦱👍🏽

[kind anchor]

real i bought it when they still had fbi and the old locker room

[still willow]

I think i paid the same lmao

[eternal crow]

Also why do people keep mentioning AI in RoN

[wraith gale]

you wont be, all they changed is a little bit of pixels and removed the ability to dismember dead bodies (which idk why people would do that)

[opaque zealot]

yeah i can agree, i mentioned a while ago that that one bald trafficking victim is definetly the most unnerving thing to look at in the game, however im hopful that the minor clothing changes will still keep the npcs uncomfortable to look at to keep up that sense of anxiety. human trafficking is a real ongoing issue afterall that should make the player uncomfortable to think about.

at the end of the day, the true fault lies within review boards who are forcing the tone down just because regional censors don't want their people being confronted with real world issues

[bold sky]

they did use ai for subtitles for a while lol

[verbal dagger]

that's cool, i paid like 120 for this years ago when i supporter the game before it was censored

i paid that much because of what the devs were specifically doing to create this game in an uncompromising way

*supported

[wraith gale]

ngl for a company with 100 members in total, theyre doing really good

[still willow]

I thought it was 50 in total

[finite forge]

Why does everyone wanna see some Johnsons?

[wraith gale]

he got the supporters edition

[eternal crow]

They’re closeted 🫣

[kind anchor]

we dont its gore and realism

[still willow]

No I mean the amount of people for the studio

[opaque zealot]

i think gerard's balls being removed is the most nonissue thing because u typically dont even notice them

[eternal crow]

(I’m kidding)

[indigo pike]

classic piveting and deflections from people defending censorship 💀

[wraith gale]

kam said 100 and someone else said 60 idk

[still willow]

100 I guess would be pretty small ngl

[delicate vapor]

Well I mean this whole time you have been moaning about not being able to see victims boobas and baldies Johnson and blowing limbs off kinda weird my guy

[eternal crow]

I was kidding tbf, I don’t like it either

[finite forge]

Realism is still there, the censoring could add to the lore, like shifty wifi being in Los suenos resulting in the censoring on the iPad

[verbal dagger]

I agree with most of that, but devs have also said that part of this situation is being caused by a physical release and the restrictions around that specifically

If that's the case I think choosing to do a physical release while toning down the game is a bad decision

[kind anchor]

bro defending censorship is wild

[still willow]

The gore is still there tho

[wraith gale]

thats not just their dev team, thats the whole company lol

[thorn axle]

the censroship is unnecessary and stupid imo

[kind anchor]

bro i never said that shit sybau

[compact kiln]

Censorship defenders, I have still yet to hear an argument other than "I'm a console player and I've waited to long to care" or "I think those who do care are mentally ill and I want to spite them". When someone presents a better argument than these I think you should be heard out and I'll respect your opinion. As it stands now this is a baffling misstep in service of a crossplay integration I'd wager more than half the playerbase doesn't actually care about. It's not worth compromising the artistic integrity of the game so that I can play with guys who run off solo while they hotmic a screaming kid and tiktoks autoplaying on their phone.

[still willow]

Kam also said that these changes could have been so much worse lmao

[opaque zealot]

Yeah, it really sucks bc at the same time, losing a physical release sucks bc having that box would be a really nice decoration

[thorn axle]

id buy a console version if i wanted to play with my console friends and couldnt on pc

[delicate vapor]

Lmao it's okay to come out the closet we don't judge

[finite forge]

We could not have cross play

[thorn axle]

^^ this

[compact kiln]

Preferable

[twin bramble]

I just don’t get what people’s ideas are here. So an executive comes up to them and says “guys we know the game comes out in 2 weeks and we’re gonna need you to censor these things if you want it on console.” You just expect this Dev team to axe the whole project and console port they probably been working on for the last who knows how many years? Or just censor 3 things and maybe come back to it down the line when the game is on console?? I mean 😂 the delusion is wild

[kind anchor]

rage bait is wild

[opaque zealot]

yeah at the end of the day the review boards are 100% to blame for forcing the game to change stuff just to fit regional guidelines

[kind anchor]

YES SIR SPEAK

[thorn axle]

because they're not just gonna add it back. theyre going to remove it and keep it removed

[still willow]

Goofy ass hate

[finite forge]

If I can't play with mods then theirs no point in having cross-platform ig for console players like us.

[compact kiln]

I expect them to ditch crossplay and segregate console players to an aesthetically and comunnally inferior experience

[kind anchor]

fr

[wraith gale]

as a PC player, i wish they didnt change these, but people are making it way bigger of a deal than it really is. people are hoping VOID go bankrupt because they removed a little bit of gore and added cloth to some characters.

[verbal dagger]

I don't care about the box so much, but I do agree with having a disc for game preservation

A lot of gaming publishers do wild things when there's only an online version of a game, especially SONY, having a disc version of the game helps a lot with that, at the same time releasing in a censored state kind of defeats that

[wraith gale]

console doesnt get mods

[twin bramble]

So we’re just rage baiting in the Devs own discord server. Thrilling time

[finite forge]

This argument feels a little silly

[indigo pike]

games getting review bombed because of it too

[kind anchor]

yea

[still willow]

I'm glad I convinced my friend to buy this bc the whining is so insane bro this discord was like fine weeks ago 😩

[wraith gale]

theres barely 2k that review bombed

[verbal dagger]

that and threatening void is wild, at the same time i think the anger is valid, and if changes are bigger than void is saying than it will completely alienate their community

[kind anchor]

ready or not just hund its self

[indigo pike]

welp they had it coming anyways lamo

[thorn axle]

at the end of the day all we can do is hope the devs listen to the people who've literally supported them for years instead of being shills

[opaque zealot]

yeah the crew is especially a good recent example of that, a disk version would really help so that even if servers go offline, console players can atleast play commander mode without having it taken.

unfortunately the backup comes at the loss of the content

[delicate vapor]

Ik it's either deal with the situation and just use the mods that are gonna put this stuff back in place or don't and complain and let the company just lose out on a shi ton of money to help future development

[buoyant pecan]

Bruh what
I got “unauthorized use of force” for shooting a suspect who happened to be right next to the one who was shooting at me that I was aiming for
And then I got unauthorized use of force again for killing a dude who was holding a civilian hostage at gunpoint

[kind anchor]

yea it was that just from 2 days the news just got out 2k is a looot

[wraith gale]

2k review bombs vs 189k positive reviews. who wins

[compact kiln]

Please outline how im rage baiting. How is playing with PC players integral to your enjoyment? How many of your friends who own it on steam have said "awesome, cant wait to link up on crossplay bro"?

[timber fjord]

i just put 20 fucking rounds into a suspect and he didnt fucking die

fucking bullshit

[opaque zealot]

you need to use 21 rounds

[twin bramble]

A lot of my friends actually 😂 I’m assuming you have none or sum like what bro. You’d rather argue nonsense but nah you right they should’ve just scrapped the project and all the money they put into it instead of censoring things they were forced to

[verbal dagger]

I've heard about that happening with the human shield but idk how, i always pop them in the head without getting dinged for it

[wraith gale]

did they increase the slowdown

[opaque zealot]

[timber fjord]

no cuz how does that fucking npc survive a mag and has no body armor

[buoyant pecan]

I’m wondering if some glitches are happening like

[thorn axle]

if all of your friends are on pc its time you get off your ass and get a pc

[opaque zealot]

he ate all his veggies so he is very strong

[twin bramble]

Nice

[buoyant pecan]

Do they got PC money tho

[thin viper]

PC Players crying over minor changes? What else is new

[timber fjord]

ok

[thorn axle]

just say you werent an early supporter then

[thin viper]

PC players are masters of whining

[opaque zealot]

you need to eat vegetables to be a strong commander

[thorn axle]

console players are the masters of sucking ass

[opaque zealot]

true way to play ready or not

[thin viper]

ok go play something else if ur gonna be a crybaby. Nobody cares bye

[buoyant pecan]

Ngl literally every update of the game I see people crying that the game was ruined and I have seen this before the game even got out of early access

[wraith gale]

i got the supporters edition and im not that upset over ts

[indigo pike]

the sad part is, 99% of the community is telling void no its a bad idea and they're sticking their fingers in their ears lmao

[silver palm]

Damn what did I do

[compact kiln]

Then I say without a hint of irony that you'd be better off selling your PS5 or Series X and investing in an entry level gaming pc or portable pc like a steam deck.

[wraith gale]

they have no choice

[compact kiln]

You'd be getting the better, uncompromised product

[thorn axle]

they could just NOT HAVE CROSSPLAY

[verbal dagger]

idk about that, people were super hyped for the update before 1.0
A ton of people loved 1.0 as well but there's been a lot of criticsm about not bringing multiple game modes back

which is fair

[opaque zealot]

they have been preparign this for ages just to get stopped by the review boards, they cant just cancel release now

[indigo pike]

uhhhh they do...make a seperate console build like every other game studio out there

[prisma tusk]

Reminder to be nice to each other

[twin bramble]

I have more friends on console orrrrrr these executives could stop censoring games and then make it seem like it’s the Dev teams fault for complying 🤯

[wraith gale]

a team less than 100 people managing 2 game builds at the same time would cause an extreme amount of bugs on both ends.

[buoyant pecan]

Check the comments on any of the dev updates in history. Always been full of whiners

[opaque zealot]

real i have a few friends on ps5 who've been waiting to play w/ my and my pc friends for ages

[kind anchor]

or that would make devs do the job of a dev

[buoyant pecan]

Then again Steam comments are a cesspool in general

[finite forge]

I'm not saying g keep teh censorship, I want everyone to be able read the game foe what it really is, not be hidden by censorship

[thorn axle]

would be better than pissing off your existing communituy. like i have a console too. i would buy another copy to play with my friends.

[wraith gale]

dawg they have less than 100 people in their whole company, it works out having some shit removed and having one build

[opaque zealot]

but then they'd release something buggier than initial cyberpunk 2077 and basically give console players absolute slop for $50 thats unplayable

[frank badge]

that would be funny though

[thorn axle]

no? it wouldnt be slop if they simply had another build

[verbal dagger]

some sure, but not nearly as many whiners around the update pre 1.0 and 1.0
people were pretty damned happy about those updates

[buoyant pecan]

I remember right when they announced data center and the hotel and people were whining “WOW you just keep adding levels instead of fixing the game’s AI. This game is dead. You keep ruining it.” Then the next update “WOW not adding more maps? No one cares about these AI and gameplay tweaks”

[opaque zealot]

i dont think giving mindseye quality content out for $50 is a good alternative

[indigo pike]

said nobody ever 💀

[wraith gale]

Ready or Mindseye

[buoyant pecan]

Then again, it is steam comments and steam comment sections tend to suck

[amber dock]

Then it's pistols only and nothing else to be safe

[verbal dagger]

there will always be stupid people, those stupid people will not always be in the majority

[kind anchor]

just let them do it then they might realise they fucked up

[frank badge]

they both use a lot of ai slop in the art department so they already have that in common at least

[wraith gale]

real lol

[opaque zealot]

people were defending the ai too like just slightly alter the ai artwork

[buoyant pecan]

Yea I wish RoN didn’t use AI “art”

[silver palm]

Id say give it a week or two after the game gets released and people will get over the censorship

[half harness]

RoN uses ai "art"?

[wraith gale]

people gonna get over it next week

[verbal dagger]

Maybe, i think it depends on what that update looks like

[silver palm]

Exactly

[eternal crow]

What does that even mean

[kind anchor]

dout it

[opaque zealot]

they could easily do some graphic design in the 2 maps that have it most prominently (streamer for example) and add more fitting art

[indigo pike]

yeah the second level has tons of it in michaels room

[frank badge]

its for almost all 2d art in the game

[wraith gale]

yeah, look at the gun in the console cover art lol, the mag clips through the gun

[buoyant pecan]

I think it makes sense for the cringe streamer guy to have AI “art” in his room but otherwise it’s ugh

[opaque zealot]

tbf ur not wrong but i also dislike how the tv has ai thumbnails, they could just add a bunch of ingame screenshots similar to how mikeys game is a dude holding a gun.

[wraith gale]

zepplin 1984

[half harness]

the only piece of content that could really change the impact of the scene due to censorship is the girl in twisted nerve no longer twitching tbh, everything else is irrelevant and even that is passable

[buoyant pecan]

Like Carriers of the Vine uses a lot of of AI art too sadly

[opaque zealot]

big judge is watching

[frank badge]

entire game uses it constantly its quite lazy

[buoyant pecan]

Yea
Tho to be fair the channels on that tv sound like ones that would use it lol

[wraith gale]

i was just tryna tell bro what the acronym meant💔

[opaque zealot]

IT DOES???????

[silver palm]

I’ll never get to see naked Judge but yeah this update won’t impact the game in a bad way

[buoyant pecan]

I think the pics of the kids in Brixley talent time are also AI but I think that makes sense cause I’d rather not they use real kids

[opaque zealot]

lol now that u mention it that tv was made in 2023 for 1.0, meaning ron predicted youtube being filled with ai slop

[opaque zealot]

yeah i think this is a good exception

[verbal dagger]

maybe, the gore changes are either going to be negligible or game changing from what the devs have said

it's why i think they should just release a side by side comparison video instead of broadly talking about the changes

[eternal crow]

Why do they use A.I. for art assets?

[buoyant pecan]

Yeah the room with the paintings

[wraith gale]

probably easier for them

[eternal crow]

That’s more concerning to me than censorship honestly lol

[opaque zealot]

i wish they'd atleast redo some of the lspd posters, the stop mass shootings one is an ai gun that has like 2 different grips and a weird trigger

[half harness]

Tbh I feel like they could have alternatives and there should be more callouts or discussion about it

[indigo pike]

laziness

[frank badge]

they dont care that much for the world beyond basic edgy conspiracy plots

[buoyant pecan]

Saving time I imagine
I very much do not like it, but it doesn’t ruin the game for me

[eternal crow]

AI is dystopian garbage

[silver palm]

I remember them saying it’s temporary and forgot to remove them but they’re slowing getting rid of them (I know I’m coping)

[delicate vapor]

I mean using AI ain't bad if its this small of a development teams and if its for small jobs it saves them time and helps them focus on the bigger things

[silver palm]

I think the subtitles too use AI?

[opaque zealot]

even tho they're a small team i feel like they could definetly replace it in the near future

[frank badge]

looks like shit and is lazy and soulless

[buoyant pecan]

If other aspects of the game weren’t genuine craftsmanship and art I would be more mad

[eternal crow]

Eh… it’s a slippery slope, just like censorship is

[dim swallow]

Its funny cause they commissioned an actual artist for the judge body pillow but they couldn't even hire someone to replace the placeholder ai stuff in the game

[indigo pike]

incoming copes on how its nothing

[opaque zealot]

if they'd atleast remove the ai stuff on mikeys bedroom walls and carriers of the vine, it;'d be nice bc the games detail is already beautifully crafted, adding ai into the mix just makes it stand out

[eternal crow]

[half harness]

AI could definitely be replaced for this game in the near future if it was an actual proposition, they're not that badly off

[silver palm]

😭

[buoyant pecan]

Like when I heard the movie Late Night With The Devil used AI art for a few seconds for a TV show logo thing
I wasn’t happy about it but the movie is still good

[still willow]

Its me I'm the ai art

[prisma tusk]

They are slowly but surely replacing them. They were placeholders but I agree they stuck around too long.

[wraith gale]

judge body pillow is way more important obviously

[buoyant pecan]

We need more RoN fan art

[half harness]

As they should

[silver palm]

Ok so I was right

[frank badge]

they have been around for years and fill every level, what has actually been replaced

[dim swallow]

Slowly? Have they ever touched the old levels till now ?

[eternal crow]

I hope so

[buoyant pecan]

Ngl I’d love a level where we fight a biker gang

[dim swallow]

Im 50% sure Stories from LS is the first time they retouched the older maps

[opaque zealot]

honestly i think an alternative void can do is hosting contests to have artists redraw posters from the precinct and certain maps and reward them w/ stuff like supporter edition or ready or not merch

[prisma tusk]

Lots of tiny bits you probably wouldn't even notice tbh.

[buoyant pecan]

Also a level where you fight the klan would go hard

[opaque zealot]

it removes the ai and gets the community involved in something

[prisma tusk]

That would be sick.

[half harness]

Yeah, this server has quite the community I'd say, it's good if they gave it some use

[dim swallow]

Yea replacing the tiny bits sounds useless when there's huge stand-out parts using AI isn't it

[prisma tusk]

Not that I can think of? Streamer is the glaringly worst level still.

[frank badge]

so nothings changed

[buoyant pecan]

I’m down to do some voice acting if Void ever needs some

[opaque zealot]

bring back the rebel rejects from the old hotel map, hategroup
bikers vs lspd swat

[bitter remnant]

we need wendigoon to now do some VA since he dropped a 4hr long video on RON

[frank badge]

they use some stank ai for that as well dont worry

[prisma tusk]

I... just said lots of small bits in loads of levels have been swapped out.

But alr

[verbal dagger]

@prisma tusk are VOID giving any effort into bringing back multiple game modes on each level?

[opaque zealot]

im actually surprised the rebels rejects haven't made a return yet considering how pre 1.0 they were shown to be REALLY connected to los locos in their drug trade

[buoyant pecan]

Oh damn THAT’s what the RoN notification I got on YouTube is? Hell yeah

[frank badge]

i asked if the obvious uses of it have changed and they havent

[shy tulip]

He can't, or he'll find out that RoN takes place in the same universe as the national mystery flesh pit

[half harness]

The community should be used more

[bitter remnant]

im still watching it, and hes only on neon tomb

[prisma tusk]

afaik, it's unlikely any time soon, if ever.

[prisma tusk]

What obvious bits are you referencing?

[verbal dagger]

that's a shame, it makes the game far more replayable

[shy tulip]

Yeah void is not developing multiple modes per map again, just not a realistic ask at this point

[frank badge]

all painting and posters for one

[buoyant pecan]

I think imma start it
Tho I got work in a few hours so I won’t be able to finish it 😩

[prisma tusk]

Most aren't AI atp. Streamer is the exception.

[bitter remnant]

me when terrorists are invading 4u gas station

[frank badge]

they are obviously ai on hotel

[buoyant pecan]

Is the my chemical romance parody poster from VOTD AI

[half harness]

4U gas station had random robbers I believe, not terrorists

[prisma tusk]

Hotel? Sins of the father you mean?

[verbal dagger]

What are their plans post console release then? Just more DLC? Ron2 as opposed to new game modes? No more RoN?

[buoyant pecan]

Also Janey is kinda based for being an MCR fan

[opaque zealot]

can they add a scary ass ghost to the hotel that would be so awesome

[frank badge]

ah yes thank you

[novel sphinx]

why tf cant i reconnect from a DC?

such a basic feature

[twin bramble]

I thought there was talks they were going to be adding new maps as part of the dev cycle is this not a thing anymore

[bitter remnant]

the joke is he asked for gamemodes, so i made a joke about it

[frank badge]

its based on planetary alignment

[buoyant pecan]

Ngl a Halloween map pack full of horror-based maps would go crazy

[opaque zealot]

theres 2 coming with the dlc

[prisma tusk]

Tbh I can't picture any from that map, ping me with a pic in #📩feedback-reports-channel if u have one.

[shy tulip]

They said if they make another game it isn't gonna be RoN 2, but otherwise I think dlc 3 unless they announce another free mission pack, idk

[verbal dagger]

It was a good joke Synth, don't feel bad 😛

[buoyant pecan]

Wasn’t 4U originally an active shooter level? Or am I misremembering

[opaque zealot]

no but it had active shooter as a mode iirc

[verbal dagger]

Big oooof, I guess they'll just hand off the tactical shooter genre to someone else

[tacit gull]

4U also had a bomb threat lmao

[half harness]

Doesn't this game have enough things to fix within itself already? Why go for even more content?

[opaque zealot]

i remember active shooter was also on relapse aswell back in 2023

[prisma tusk]

That shit was so goofy.

[wraith gale]

gotta wait until 2026 for DLC 3 sadly

[shy tulip]

Cause gamers crave more content

[bitter remnant]

[hollow lotus]

I was gonna say. A lot of the stuff in terms of the "gritty realness" is kinda over the top. I don't think the censorship stuff is that bad since it was never saying much to begin with

[opaque zealot]

they smoked the worst joint at the gas station and decided they had to blow the whole place up

[bitter remnant]

was it really that bad??

[half harness]

I'd say what most people here are craving based on how discussions are going is for the content they have right now to be fixed

[opaque zealot]

yes.

[hollow lotus]

Im into RON for being SWAT 5 Which it still has a ways to achieve imo

[buoyant pecan]

What levels would y’all want if they did a horror-themed Halloween pack
I’m thinking:

• farmhouse with pumpkins and a creepy cornfield. Maybe a haunted house attraction discovered to have real bodies run by some lunatics
• spookyass abandoned mansion or hotel that might be haunted
• serial killer house like Fairfax

[opaque zealot]

ron lore wise is basically just bordering black ops

[buoyant pecan]

The numbers, Judge!!! WHAT DO THEY MEAN?!

[wraith gale]

a haunted house with a "CLOSE. THE. DOOR." reference would be awesome

[tacit gull]

they put the cold fries in the frier

[buoyant pecan]

Ngl I want more outright horror levels

[wraith gale]

NGL add a bearcat so i can just maul someones house and send my AI in

[opaque zealot]

swat 4 lore: new york fucking sucks, stop the crime
swat 4 dlc: stop the mafia from distributing guns

ready or not lore: the usia needs you to kill their enemies, also people are planning chemical attacks and trafficking operations, the world has been a lie for the last 50 years

[buoyant pecan]

I need to check out that tactical SCP game some time

[twin bramble]

I think a subway level would be cool. SWAT 4 had a lot of really cool levels I think RoN could take inspiration from

[opaque zealot]

i remember that one scp game that was meant to have multiple factions trying to stop a corrupted foundation. I was interested in it back then bc it had the fbi uiu

[buoyant pecan]

I forget where I was last on when I played SWAT 4 last
I think it might’ve been the jewelry store

[opaque zealot]

one of my favorite aspects of the subway level is how one of the officers freaks out and yells at toc on why the MTA is still sending trains thru the station

[shy tulip]

There was the hot coffee mod that did that and it was pretty cool

Yes I know what name that is

[buoyant pecan]

Did this server have a self promo channel for like art and stuff? I made a Valley of the Dolls ost inspired track and shared it like couple years ago or so and I kinda wanna share it again

[shy tulip]

There's also the @prime wing 12Gb metro map that we don't talk about

[opaque zealot]

there was a rlly cool ron map i miss from pre.10 where it was at an intersection by a cafe and subway that was based off the mumbai attacks

[buoyant pecan]

12GB??!

[opaque zealot]

i forgot the name but it was chaotic and cool

[shy tulip]

That was hot coffee

Or coffee something

[opaque zealot]

OH

[long dome]

MOAR

[opaque zealot]

dude i loved that map

[shy tulip]

Once you got past the 10fps it was a nice map, but I'm still convinced they stole a gmod RP map and ported it in

[opaque zealot]

hot coffee and sanctums deciet are 2 modded maps i really need to come back, same w/ private airport

[frank badge]

a map in that massive concrete brutalist skyscraper that has no windows in new york thats used as a server farm i believe would be fun

[opaque zealot]

that shit fried my acer laptop

i remember playing it 2 years ago 🥀

[long dome]

"acer", 'nuf said

[shy tulip]

https://tenor.com/view/judge-dread-mad-angry-gif-11692377

[opaque zealot]

imagine a glass skyscraper thats like a luxury office

[buoyant pecan]

I can’t win with hostages
Take too long to do something and suspect kills em
Shoot suspect and I get “unauthorized use of force”

[opaque zealot]

i hate the seralio mission bc they somehow kill 1 civ no matter how i approach

its the only mission i havent been able to S rank

[long dome]

We played it with friends long time ago, didn't really liked it. There's certainly better options.

Still a bummer that the Hotel map drops framerate at places, it's such a beauty

[buoyant pecan]

I wish there were more games like RoN in general
Apparently a lot of the military ones are full of tryhard larpers who freak out and get angry if your character doesn’t dress the way they want or have the exact realistic tacticool loadout as them

[opaque zealot]

i like larper outfits but the larping community is so toxic unfortunately

[buoyant pecan]

I think this whole genre has so much potential

I wish Siege had like
Single player stuff

[shy tulip]

Tactical games in general (ones that are actually kind of tactical) are a niche genre, and it's hard to get into

[opaque zealot]

grown 30 year old men yelling at 17yos for breaking their cag formation

[buoyant pecan]

I used to play Siege for a while but the community sucks ass

[opaque zealot]

i wish rainbow would return to its tactical roots

[frank badge]

everytime i hear larp i can only think of that youtube video of the guy throwing paper balls and yelling magic missile

[opaque zealot]

esports too big of a market to pass on sadly

[buoyant pecan]

I generally don’t like playing online much unless it’s with friends tbh

[opaque zealot]

yeah i dont queue on random lobbies i just play w/ my friends

it's more easier to coordinate anyways when its with ppl u know

(saying this as if we haven't been caught by friendly 12 gauge rounds numerous times)

[buoyant pecan]

I mean this about almost every game tbh

I’ll play fighting games online against randoms but even then I tend to prefer playing single player to blow off steam

[shy tulip]

I tire of online only games, idk, loved em growing up (Halo 3 and Reach, Battlefield 3/4/5, CSGO), but I'm just so hard burnt out on pvp in general

[verbal dagger]

Lol everyone's talking about RoN now, PC gamer's did an article and Wendigoon did a giant ass video on the lore

[buoyant pecan]

I could’ve sworn there used to be some sorta art channel here where people could share stuff they made

[shy tulip]

Just put it in art as long as you aren't like "buy me a coffee"

[chilly whale]

Anybody know why FPS wont improve no matter how much i put my graphics down

[neat oyster]

probably cpu bottlenecked

[chilly whale]

no.

[neat oyster]

what are your specs

[chilly whale]

gtx 960(4gb) and i5 3470, used to run perfectly fine 120 fps at high graphics

now it doesnt matter what im on, the FPS is the same at every graphics level.

meh idk why im complaining i will prolly get a new PC soon enough.

[neat oyster]

when was this?

[buoyant pecan]

Just failed Elephant horribly

[chilly whale]

like 6 months ago

[chilly whale]

💥 ?

[buoyant pecan]

And damn I was moving fast this time and everything but like 6 civilians got executed

TOC was not happy

[noble pasture]

I hope the devs dont bend over for the reviews

[chilly whale]

toc is never happy

[neat oyster]

ah i have no idea then,rip

[buoyant pecan]

“You performed your duties to the absolute MINIMUM” he said lmao

[chilly whale]

just kinda pisses me off cuz i wanna play this game since i got the dark waters dlc

[noble pasture]

Who got an E again?

[buoyant pecan]

Naw I got an F lmao

[chilly whale]

quit your job bro

[noble pasture]

On top of my head thats an easy 3 unauthorised kills

[chilly whale]

did one of your bullets "Accidentally" hit a civilian

[tulip valve]

why's there just an infinitely respawning prisoner in the downstairs area of the station

[chilly whale]

test dummy

[tulip valve]

wild

[buoyant pecan]

Naw

[tulip valve]

do i even lose any points even though its saying im losing?

[chilly whale]

your police department doesnt have an infinitely respawning prisoner?

[buoyant pecan]

I just couldn’t find the damn shooters a bunch of times

[chilly whale]

ur in the PD lmao it doesnt matter.

[tulip valve]

probably, just dont know where he is

[buoyant pecan]

But they found civilians pretty quickly

[chilly whale]

mine keeps him in the upstairs area, name's jeff

[tulip valve]

lol

Los Suenos Rehab Program is really just being used as a test dummy

[chilly whale]

"You abused me!" shut up and take another 9mm to the face.

[thorn axle]

YOU BUSED MEEEEEEEE

[tulip valve]

he doesnt even say anything, just stands/lays there (depending on if you execute or not)

[chilly whale]

yep i know i had fun with him alot

all his limbs were removed at one point.

[tulip valve]

glad im actually taking time to check out the smaller details of the game now

[timber fjord]

how do i stop the stress mechanic in this game?

[tulip valve]

mods

[timber fjord]

are the mods on steam?

[tulip valve]

Nexus

[timber fjord]

ummm... whats that

[tulip valve]

Mod platform, it's also got vortex as another type of manager

[chilly whale]

nexus mods is the biggest hoster of mods

[noble pasture]

Stop Killing suspects

[chilly whale]

u need to make an account to download stuff.

[chilly whale]

ignore luna they're a bad officer, keep killing suspects

[timber fjord]

im not, i checked a door for trap, didnt see shit, opened it and exploded. hidden fucking grenades

[tulip valve]

thats no fun

[chilly whale]

ah hell nah i freaked out saddam hussein

[noble pasture]

You can see the wire if you peek the door open

[timber fjord]

i checked with the door camera

[buoyant pecan]

Man how does anyone s rank Elephant
I ain’t even trying to s rank and ugh

[chilly whale]

switch roles

[timber fjord]

Should i install the "No stress for swats" mod?

[chilly whale]

if u want to yes, it is your game

[tulip valve]

time to try dark waters

[elder void]

No word from the Devs yet addressing our concerns over Censorship?? I demand words from these people who are retroactively making changes to a product we paid for!

[chilly whale]

need a second? actually nvm i gotta do something

[timber fjord]

im just looking forwards to removing the stress system cuz it sucks to have

[chilly whale]

did you become the shooter or what.

ok saddam hand yourself in

"if you cant beat em, join em" ahh police officer

[timber fjord]

#🔧modding-chat help?

[tulip valve]

whuh

[buoyant pecan]

Man
Them active shooters definitely ain’t passive shooters

[tulip valve]

OH MY GODF HE SAID THE FUNNY HE SAID THE THING THE PRHASE!!!

throws roses onto stage

[buoyant pecan]

I kept trying to search the whole building only to realize one of the shooters went back to somewhere I was already at before and killed two civilians I had cuffed

[tulip valve]

faints

spontaneously combusts taking you down with me in a burst of flames as we both turn to ash

mods execute this man

[timber fjord]

to launch with mods do i select the "launch clean mods" launch option?

[tulip valve]

nope, just launch like normal

[timber fjord]

ty

[tulip valve]

move to #🔧modding-chat if you get an error

[pulsar trail]

hello guys i have a question , is there a mod or a way to customize the colour or the material of your weapons?

[eternal crow]

whats stoppin you?

[eternal crow]

i dont think haunting would fit in RoN

though didnt one of the SWAT games have a ghost or am i thinking of something else?

god damn i just checked the steam page, the review bombing is insane

[orchid comet]

I checked it also like 3 days ago so many dislikes

[buoyant pecan]

I think less outright and more implied

Where it’s up to interpretation

I need to make more music for that imaginary tactical shooter game idea

[orchid comet]

I heard on the ready or not console version there isn’t gore?

[tulip valve]

yep theres gonna be less gore

[orchid comet]

how to ruin games 101

[buoyant pecan]

There is gore, but you can’t continue to dismember an already dead body

[muted star]

No less

[tulip valve]

arent they gonna be adding less gore only for console edition and letting pc stay the same?

[muted star]

No

[chilly whale]

shitty fps

[buoyant pecan]

So basically you can blow a dude’s face off into chunks, but once they’re dead the damage afterwards won’t be very visible

[limber night]

PC stays the same in texture department iirc

[orchid comet]

they’re adding little bit changes

[tulip valve]

oh thats an interesting coice

[eternal crow]

wrong person sorry lol

[tulip valve]

review bombing justified then, why ruin a version that doesnt need to be ruined

[eternal crow]

what kinda rig you rocking?

[tulip valve]

Let console suffer not PC

[timber fjord]

my npcs are such a pain id rather play by myself

[orchid comet]

if your looking for the changes you will find it

[tulip valve]

oh not good

[chilly whale]

gtx 960 (4gb) and i5 3470, game used to run fine (like 90-120 fps)

now its hardly getting 60 fps

[eternal crow]

GTX 960?

[buoyant pecan]

They have to do those things for it to even be allowed on console
Personally tho I think they should’ve just made console and PC not have crossplay but that’s likely easier said than done

[chilly whale]

did u grow up in the RTX era?

[orchid comet]

but if you just mind your own business you can’t tell the difference

[eternal crow]

uh, i just got into PC last year lol

[tulip valve]

love it of how Doom is allowed on console meanwhile RoN is barely passing

[chilly whale]

yea explains why

[eternal crow]

but that sounds like an old model, like 2010s old

[chilly whale]

its a 2015 or 16 card, came out alongside the gtx 1080

[limber night]

Brother Void is a self publishing 50 ppl studio

[eternal crow]

oof

[buoyant pecan]

To be fair, I don’t think Doom lets you mutilate a body that’s already dead
Tho Soldier of Fortune allowed that back on the PS2

[limber night]

Meanwhile ID is under Bethesda 😭

[tulip valve]

Fair enough

[eternal crow]

idk about ready or not but for a lot of newner releases i imagine that thing struggles

[buoyant pecan]

I think it’s supposed to be against “desecrating a corpse” or whatever? I dunno

[chilly whale]

yeah of course it does lmao because new games are made to run exclusively on rtx cards

[buoyant pecan]

I gotta go to work in an hour damn

[chilly whale]

i can run alot of games perfectly fine though.

[eternal crow]

i have an RTX 3080

[limber night]

Yeah you just can't further dismember a dead suspect/civ anymore and that's all about the gore changes

[buoyant pecan]

Gonna go eat a hot pocket

[orchid comet]

which hot pocket

[buoyant pecan]

Pepperoni pizza flavor

[orchid comet]

absolutely love this

[buoyant pecan]

Fr

[eternal crow]

idk, i dont think the review bombing is justified, i think there'd be a bit less damage if the post explained that those changes are the ONLY changes, when i read it it sounded kind of vague and not entirely descriptive of everything that was being changed

[limber night]

Ppl should have that energy back in 2017-2023 ain't gonna lie

[eternal crow]

However, if more censorship occurs in the future, i dont think i'd be against the severe backlash. i know they said "this is where the censorship starts and ends"

but they also said in the past the game would NEVER be censored, so asking people to take you at your word is NOW? Thats uh, no beuno

regardless of weather or not these werent their choice and is being forced

[limber night]

I'd say they always had a console version in mind, but never took into account what bringing the game onto it looked like

And eventually hit the wall they had to cross

[buoyant pecan]

wtf happened to that bodycam game
People were enjoying it and then it became total ass apparently

[orchid comet]

how good is the T2 optic in RoN?

[limber night]

It was always ass tbf, it was just popular cuz of the other game that started that trend

[eternal crow]

the bodycam game didnt really look that interesting tbh, it just looked like a glorified tech demo with a few interesting artistic choices

but it looked very shallow

[buoyant pecan]

I wish SWAT 4 had a console version that shit would’ve went hard on PS2

[eternal crow]

not good for longevity

[limber night]

Well it's "realistic" in a sense it has one of the smallest windows in the game, making it less ideal than SRS for example

[eternal crow]

i don't really want games to look indistuingishable from reality personally, i like that video games, you know, look like video games

[orchid comet]

It looks like if RoN and ground branch had a baby

[limber night]

Cuz it was just UE5 assets slapped together lol

[chilly whale]

i agree with this guy, we made games to escape reality, not to replicate it

[eternal crow]

that game was an asset flip?

[limber night]

Well yeah, it was all store assets used in that game

[eternal crow]

i didnt know that but i never really looked into it either

[orchid comet]

the movement looks terrible in bodycam

[eternal crow]

asset flips are almost never good

[limber night]

It was clearly made quickly just to cash in on hype from the other bodycam game

[eternal crow]

what other bodycam game?

[limber night]

I forgot it's name, but it was a bit more complex and SP

It's still in development

But it Basicially build up the hype around the whole body cam type of gameplay

[orchid comet]

has anyone played bodycam?

[limber night]

And the game Bodycam cashed in on that very trend

[limber night]

It's bad, GB unironically better but that game sucks ass too

[orchid comet]

gb looks like roblox ngl

[limber night]

I mean it's just another UE game

18 years in development hell

Unironically Operator which is very bare bones atm and uses multiple store assets itself has more depth and chances to be successful than GB

[orchid comet]

Didn’t ready or not development started in 2016?

[amber dock]

uh huh

[eternal crow]

18 YEARS?!?!?!?!

[amber dock]

2007 it was announced

ground branch

[eternal crow]

oh, i thought he meant that other bodycam game lmao

ground branch doesnt look that great tbh

[amber dock]

it never has

bodycam was made in like less then 1 to 2 years

[eternal crow]

RoN's the best tac shooter on the market, i wouldn't really need anything else

[shy tulip]

Tactical barbie

[static relic]

are pepperballs worth using?

[tulip valve]

are you trying to do an S run?

[static relic]

just in the overall sense i join a lobby and have to run nonlethal

[tulip valve]

If nonlethal then absolutely

[crude prism]

pepperball and beanbag are both good in different ways

beanbag gets you instant-stuns, but with much slower ROF and longer reload times

pepperball has quick reloads, faster shooting, and a CS AOE effect, but requires more effort to stun/disable people

[eternal crow]

beanbag all the way

the pepper balls aren't reliable

S ranks are MUCH easier with beanbags

You'll struggle way more with pepperballs, just take it slow and command your squad effectively

and, dont hit their head if ur doing beanbags, that still kills them, but center mass is an easy target anyways

[echo phoenix]

after all the censorship is there any plans to improve the gore / character response- animation or spilling?

[buoyant pecan]

Low-key want a medieval fantasy tactical shooter game where you’re like
Some city watch group with like knight armor and oldass pistols and rifles and crossbows and sorcery

[thorn axle]

That’s called Dungeons and Dragons

[ionic gale]

Wendigoon is covering us 🔥 🔥

[timber fjord]

i got stuck at the "find all civs" thing and i somehow died...

[languid tusk]

[noble pasture]

What the fuck

[twin bramble]

So I’m confused with the censorship is crossplay to PC still going to be a thing? If I’m on the streamer level and look at the computer on console in a PC lobby what am I going to see

[tulip valve]

i got distracted by the music on leviathan and somehow got blasted twice with a shotgun while i was spraying lead down an enemy and they lived somehow while i died :(

[sharp roost]

Has there been any official console gameplay of ready or not?

[prisma tusk]

Here's some https://youtu.be/LZ2DZ8FTgWk?si=-h8XCl1TF8a_HXbM

[stable kernel]

https://youtu.be/hGmcKOtCfm4?t=993 as well

[fathom flax]

how do ppl play this on contrller bruh i feel handicapped with the aim xd

[vale sparrow]

okay I’m here now

let’s talk about ron

[narrow geode]

Hello, here now

[vale sparrow]

no, check pinned everything’s there you need

[brisk root]

whole thing dont look that bad tbh

[twin bramble]

Probably a little bit I bet if it wasn’t mentioned their would be a stir on discord but no one outside of here would complain

[vale sparrow]

this is about ron let’s not bring anything wbout censorship here pls 😭

what questions do u have

I’ll answer them in a civil matter

[dusty crow]

Would lowering the difficulty decrease the point earnage? I'm asking because I haven't played games on my PC or PS5 in quite a while.

[eternal crow]

Does anybody know if they’re going to expand on the port plot line

[oak hound]

Well playing on a controller is the first mistake 😅

[fathom flax]

how else is console supposed to play bro

[oak hound]

I'm just saying as a general comment, lol.

[vale wave]

Is it just me or every single time im playing port hokan the suspects are ALWAYS staring at the tower and the second i enter it im getting shot at from 10 different directions

[shy tulip]

Sounds like you keep doing the same things expecting different reactions

[prisma tusk]

https://tenor.com/view/vaas-definitionofinsanity-farcry3-insanity-gif-4899376

[vale wave]

Yeah well i definitely did not expect a suspect to snipe me from the other side of the map 0,001 seconds after i entered the upper floor of the tower

[eternal crow]

When I tried it it was fine, but commanding squad mates looks like a pain in the ass. Thankfully when I’m playing this with my buddies we’ll all be humans lol so no need for command wheel

[river basalt]

Since when can you have more then 5 people in one lobby ?

There is 7 people in this thing

[shy tulip]

Mods

[quasi jetty]

Hey question y’all, new here and I’m on Xbox X/S.

Should I preorder Ready or Not ??

I wanted to talk and get your guy’s views/opinions!

[vale sparrow]

I’d say it’s a great game but it depends what sort of games you like, I’ve pre ordered it and after all the clips I’ve watched and things I’ve been told it looks awesome

[lone cloud]

bodycam is asset flip unreal 5 slop

[clever hull]

Am excited for July 15

[undone cairn]

I remembered from a while back when I was making an S tier attempt on dorms with some friends, we finished all objectives but there were about 2 maybe 3 pieces of evidence that I couldn’t find despite how hard we searched, I was wondering if anyone else had this issue and eventually solved it

[twin bramble]

They always update the locations so it might be easier to find now. I remember the meth used to be hard to find on the parkway mission back in the day. It’s a lot easier now so they might’ve chanhed it

[undone cairn]

Cool, thanks

[quasi jetty]

I wish Bodycam would come to Xbox lol

[wary summit]

Is it possible for Amos Voll's guard to kill his own wife? 😭
Just happened to me

[lone cloud]

that game on controller would be awful and youd be lucky to get more than 5 fps lol

[eternal crow]

Yes

[eternal crow]

It’s ass

And not the good kind

[twin bramble]

Is there going to be a FOV slider on the console version or plans to add one

[sinful canopy]

Wasn't there a pvp mode in like the beta or something?

[ionic gale]

Better be an FOV slides

[ionic gale]

It was an early concept during the alpha stage of the game… you probably saw Youtubers like Russianbadger get their hands on the and play it

[twin bramble]

I watched a gameplay video of someone who was invited out to play an early build on PS5, the FOV gives me a headache I hope they have one it’s way to close

[flat willow]

What are the soft objectives on Greased Palms again?? I already reported the VISA post office and the suspected shooter

[wheat harbor]

have the devs mentioned/answered if console version of Ready or Not will have M&K support?

[short crow]

What's that
Excuse me my English ain't too good

[wheat harbor]

I was just curious if the devs have mentioned or answered questions if mouse and keyboard support would be coming to the console version of Ready or Not

[short crow]

Not at the moment
Maybe later

[twin bramble]

There’s weapons out on the parking lot area in a van

[flat willow]

You are a genuine life saver
Managed to save the S rank

[crude prism]

if you watched the video from isaac, he explained in the comments that he had stretched the footage out to hide the HUD, the FOV isn't ~AS~ small as it seems

[twin bramble]

That’s the vid I watched, that’s good to know because that did not look good lmaoo

[solar bramble]

Why is RoN getting review bombed on Steam?

[solar bramble]

Okay, so people are upset the game doesn't show Gerards richard anymore basically.

That's the only change though? That's why people are mad?

[wraith gale]

no, read the pins

[solar bramble]

Surely people wouldn't be mad otherwise.

Console port wouldn't have been a problem if it wasn't for the change in nudity, etc.

[wraith gale]

either they changed the things or ronsole wouldnt be allowed to release

[static relic]

if i felt bored and w anted to use a pistol as a primary, would the five-seven be the best/only option?

[wheat harbor]

gotcha guess i wont get the console version apreciate the response

[short crow]

@gaunt gale got nothing to do with this
Don't ban me pls

[gaunt gale]

It won't, but since there's been quite a few requests, we'll look into doing it in the future

[quasi jetty]

Wait there’s nudity ?

[quasi jetty]

Who’s Gerald Richard ?

[stone bay]

It’s worth it the game is a phenomenal experience with great gameplay and some great storytelling (environment) if your a tactical dude get it just don’t expect it to he fast paced take it slow there is so much i could say but imma stop yapping

[stone bay]

Its honestly not even that deep tbh. I think the game will till get the message and tone across without it and honestly its not even void’s fault sony and xbox are alot more strict one there ratings unlike steam where you can find E games all the way to Adult only stuff

[quasi jetty]

Don’t stop yapping, because I got the Deluxe Edition

[opaque zealot]

you need to play on release and experience the whole thing

dont spoil the game for yourself

[stone bay]

Yah fr

[frail pier]

Out of ANYTHING to get upset about regarding this game people chose cockless Gerard, Port container women in tattered clothing, and a child not having a seizure from an OD along with no dismemberment on dead/incap bodies in a SWAT game😪

[stone bay]

Heres the last thing i will say this is one of the only games that really puts you into these officers perspectives. Mentally and morally especially if you wanna S rank

[solar bramble]

The crazy AK pipebomb dude in the cottage in the woods

[opaque zealot]

they need to learn the hard way on who gerard is

like everyone does

[stone bay]

Yah its silly really

[edgy linden]

I just use AI mods with difficulty and increased suspects, T hunt on steroids :3

[stone bay]

Im hyped for the less then lethal secondary can we talk about that for a second FINALLY i can use a sidearm and not have a empty handgun on all my officers

[quasi jetty]

He’s not in the game anymore thou supposedly?

[stone bay]

T hunt god i feel old

[solar bramble]

Well, this is subjective, but I've always found people that are rooting for and are upset with games not depicting graphic violence are a bit weird.

There are other battles to fight. I am however glad that VOID has taken artistic liberties to try and paint a realistic picture of ex. human trafficking. I mean, sure - it does send a different message when they're all naked - BUT, the overall theme remains unchanged imo.

[opaque zealot]

no they just removed his balls

[quasi jetty]

??

[solar bramble]

I've removed his balls a couple of times

[dim swallow]

They gave him bottom surgery

[opaque zealot]

havent we all

[solar bramble]

"stray" shots

[opaque zealot]

gerard transitioned

[edgy linden]

I love watching 7 people join my lobby, and then 5-6 rage quit the first 10-30 seconds in because they play like call of duty cause vanilla is a joke difficulty wise

[stone bay]

I 💯 agree People Need put some respect Voids name they really cook with there art

[opaque zealot]

i evaporated him once bc i c2'd a doortrap he was behind

[quasi jetty]

So Gerald Richard is a 🏳️‍⚧️?

[stone bay]

That sounds funny as shit

[solar bramble]

They should rather be upset that this is a reality for someone. Maybe not cockless Gerard. But it's a little weird how games have managed to distance themselves so much that heavily traumatic events are only entertained, and need to be MORE violent.

I've played since EA. It was fine without all of the stuff that was later added.

Imo it makes no difference to me what happens in the upcoming version as long as the core gameplay stays the same.

[solar bramble]

Out of all of this - that's what you got out of that

[desert island]

MMMM

[crude prism]

average "joined today" weirdposting

[desert island]

hows the game

[quasi jetty]

So basically, the game used to be a lot more violent and now it’s soft ?

[opaque zealot]

no the game isnt censored yet

[stone bay]

No

[crude prism]

No

[desert island]

game used to be more violent until they saw my body cams and cut the 7.62 budget

[edgy linden]

It is but on occasion I get real gamers that adapt to the difficulty

[desert island]

whats the difficulty changes

[stone bay]

When you get a good stack its so good

[desert island]

wat makes the AI more difficult other than giving them tighter aimbot and more clairvoyance

[quasi jetty]

So if I want to fully experience the game of what ready or not is. What difficulty or should I do?

[edgy linden]

The one I use spawns up to 60-70 iirc on certain maps, they have more realistic variables of reaction timing, and if they are staring at an entry point they have very fast reflexes to start shooting, they also use tactics of charging and retreating and taking cover and shooting from cover more oftenly, and also group up more

[stone bay]

Wait

[quasi jetty]

Xbox X/S
i’m waiting for it to be dropped on July 15th

[stone bay]

Im dumb

[desert island]

yeah i dont think my computer can handle more than 40 ppl on 1 map

[quasi jetty]

Or should I select New Zealand time so I can play sooner than July 15 lol

[stone bay]

Are they adding difficulty sliders?

[quasi jetty]

I have no idea. When I start playing this game, I’m going for the hardest difficulty or whatever I can do.

[desert island]

theres no hardest difficulty at the moment

u just do the missions and just handicap urself with ur equipment

[stone bay]

On pc there is just a unchangeable difficulty the maps do get more challenging as you play

[humble mauve]

Yes there will be 3 difficulty options with the new update

[stone bay]

Ahh okay

[desert island]

if u want challenge just use shittier gear

[edgy linden]

Will they be comparable or better than the AI mods?

[stone bay]

Anti stab vest and revolver only

[desert island]

the nonlethal weapons are better than pistols

[quasi jetty]

What would you recommend I do for the Xbox series XS? If I want the full balls to the wall ready or not experience.

[stone bay]

True

[edgy linden]

Like, personally I wouldn't mind an "advanced" tab for difficulty where I can select how many suspects, and if they use tactics, etc

[humble mauve]

I have no idea

But I'd reckon if you are brand new to the game it would be best to try out standard to see how you do and move accordingly

[edgy linden]

I've played since unreal 4 version when it came out on steam

[desert island]

advanced difficulty

[edgy linden]

I got used to the Terminator AI

[desert island]

john wick ai

[quasi jetty]

I got the deluxe edition

[desert island]

runs into a room backwards and 1 shots everyone

[covert aurora]

I remember those days

[trim kettle]

@gaunt gale Is it possible for suspect to bleed out if you injure him and let him run away?

[edgy linden]

I remember they would just pop out of a corner and kill each person within 1.5-2ish, very funny

Everyone*

[humble mauve]

if they are arterial bleeding yes

[solar bramble]

It was fun

I miss the pizza/burger WIP map

[edgy linden]

Yeah, some of the wip maps and even some of the exclusive maps back then were pretty fun to play on

[trim kettle]

Would love to see pre-release version coming back some day.
I miss randomly generating missions

[stone bay]

I miss old hotel

[solar bramble]

Hotel lobby was great

[edgy linden]

The construction area of death

[desert island]

i wana see a change where they can no longer see thru narrow gaps

[humble mauve]

missions have never been randomly generated

[opaque zealot]

i never got to beat it bc i always struggled down there but it was so fun

[stone bay]

Yah map was huge felt like every thing i used mattered as well as when to pick my shots

[stone bay]

That place gives me nightmares

[edgy linden]

The key back then was to use ALT lean around corners cause the AI sucked at detection when you alt leaned around corners.

[desert island]

their fov is weird

they can see like above their head

but also cant see like right infront of them

[edgy linden]

That or just use flash goggles, primary flash launcher (before it was bugged so badly you killed yourself with it easily) and flash launcher.

I named it "The flash man" loadout back then

[clever hull]

I really hope they new difficulty options include pointing out objectives or marking them for you. Hide and seek is a pain in the ass

[desert island]

spam mark to find targets

[hollow lotus]

When tf are we getting trailers again to actually clean up

[edgy linden]

In general a QoL option...

"Civilians run to spawn and auto arrest themselves once order to chaos is completed"

[trim kettle]

Well, they kinda were.
You were picking your prefered gamemode and everything else (except for map) was randomly generated.

[humble mauve]

they do in practice mode if you soft-complete a level (all objectives finished but not everything collected)

[opaque zealot]

real its been over a year and theyre still extremely rare

[desert island]

maybe they should get rid of bring order to chaos

[opaque zealot]

it'd be nice to have them in commander mode

[desert island]

so u cant know if all the suspects r gone yet

[edgy linden]

Maybe, that could be a good realism mode related option. Maybe even specific tweaks like "only until all suspects are dead" specifically, or.. "never notified"

[desert island]

TOC has omnipotence

he already knows whose a suspect and whose a civilian before u see them

[strange patrol]

um, why are most of the pistols compact and not full size?

[restive ferry]

smol hand developers

[crude prism]

judge has small hands, he's a pistol princess

[trim kettle]

Did tazer got removed or something?
Can't see it in my loadout.

[restive ferry]

Judge has to carry a 43x 😭

[restive ferry]

Keep pressing 4 it should cycle

[trim kettle]

Oh wait, now it's a special weapon?
Woah...

[restive ferry]

Been like that for a while now lol

Kind of annoying when you have to press 4 like 5 different times just to bring a taser out

[crude prism]

Hot tip, your items like C2/Taser/Wedge are equipped in the order you assign them points.

Zero out your utility items, then put a point into the taser first, it will be the first selection when you press 4

(same goes for the other items)

[lavish zinc]

press secondary button 2 times its in that slot too

[restive ferry]

Oh type shit

[honest jetty]

i was so close to s but some suspect decided to break and make it so thinks its still in attacking but its in surrendering animation so you cant even arrest him

[indigo drift]

so about the review bombing and censorship what will happen?

[pseudo comet]

prob nothing, void really seems to want to have a physical release for the game even though no one really uses discs anymore and for them to release a physical version they have to censor some stuff (at least this is what i’ve gathered from it all)

[crude prism]

not much of a review bomb, less than 1% of total reviews still, it's gonna fade away when steam moves the brackets in a few weeks

likely nothing, but I suspect Void will do their best to restore/do what they can in the future, as they have said, repeatedly

[dim raptor]

They changed like 3 things and people are crying like get a grip

[crude prism]

I mean I agree, overall.

But it's still unfortunate either way

[light nest]

would be great if PC players can download something that brings back the stuff we have like a mod, but it won't flash the unofficial score like other mods do

[cursive minnow]

Sure, but people should be directing their complaints about censorship to Sony, Microsoft, and the ratings boards. Blaming Void is undeserved especially when they’ve done their best to work around those restrictions. Void shouldn’t be criticized for wanting to release the game on consoles or make it accessible to a wider audience; that’s like telling someone not to advertise themselves to grow. If you want to complain to Void about something, it should be about the long-standing bugs that still haven’t been fixed and the features that still haven’t been implemented and, from the looks of it, won’t be in this upcoming update either.

I'll be dropping another AI song that is about exactly that.

[honest jetty]

forgot what valley of the dolls is like pretty sure it ain't that hard to s

[cursive minnow]

I mean, it doesn’t really matter overall since that text doesn’t do anything except prevent someone from passing off a screenshot of the end score screen as legit. But even then, people could easily just Photoshop it or use someone else’s and claim it as their own. Video is the only real proof that you actually did it sure, that can be faked too, but it’s a lot harder to do without it being noticeable. Other than that, people just have to take your word for it.

[honest jetty]

oh no..

[light nest]

...wrong reply?

[wet owl]

I’d say it to be more annoying than hard if anything but that’s cause I know how to clear it. But if you don’t know what the fuck you’re doing it’s very hard

[cursive minnow]

No you mention the unofficial score I'm just telling you it doesn't matter over all to put it in short.

[light nest]

i mean it does matter to me especially since im trying to S the main game

[wet owl]

S every level and then stop caring about ranks ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[light nest]

but i don't want even the smallest details to be stripped away from vanilla just to appease sony

[honest jetty]

I know what im doing its just i dont know how to clear the pool

[cursive minnow]

I mean you can read the entire long message as I go over it. And it still saves your scores and doesn't prevent unlocks if that's what you're worried about.

[honest jetty]

i cant read cursives on the map fuck me

[dire horizon]

Flash and have the ai clear it

[light nest]

still, much rather see the official score

[cursive minnow]

The text in it's self? because it still reads everything the same as a unmodded game. It's just text is all I'm saying.

[light nest]

yea

[wet owl]

I thought unofficial scores don’t save

[light nest]

if i use mods and see that unofficial score plastered, it's like the game's punishing me for using mods

[cursive minnow]

Never had a problem with mine saving.

[light nest]

^ this

[stable kernel]

It has never affected scores saving since at least 1.0

[wet owl]

That will explain it

[light nest]

on an off note, are you and mr eman brothers

[stable kernel]

Commander saves get permanently marked as modded though, if you load into it. Not opening the files keeps it as is

[wet owl]

I’ve only started to play the game a lot again recently. Otherwise most of my runs have been during EA

[light nest]

"these mods are seriously ticking me off"

[wet owl]

No I took inspiration of Eman’s pfp and thought instead of ptsd I just put the red eyes showing the struggle this game is sometimes

[light nest]

either way, would be nice if we can get this

like this one mod can specifically bypass the unofficial scores to give back what PC players lost without the "Mods Detected, Unofficial Score"

[stable kernel]

The game will always know if it is modded with a pak mod, since it allows the mods to be loaded in the first place

And if you were to actually change the game pak the checksum would be off and it would probably still know

Not much point in using a mod to remove the text when you know you have to mod it to do so anyway

[light nest]

screw sony honestly

[eternal crow]

Random question but what is that tan shotgun with the shell rack on the side? I’ve seen it in trailers and gameplay vids but I’ve never seen it in game

[light nest]

Beretta 1301 Entry, that's only for EA players

[eternal crow]

Oh 😭😭

[wet owl]

Supporters Edition Exclusive

[eternal crow]

Well what the fuck is it doing in the console trailer???

[stable kernel]

Supporter edition owners, playing during ea is not the same

[eternal crow]

And in the Xbox store screenshots

[stable kernel]

[wet owl]

Oh? There’s another one

[eternal crow]

???

[wet owl]

I’m lost

[stable kernel]

I think you are confusing that one for the beanbag shotgun with orange livery

The entryman has a lot of tan

I don’t see the entryman on the store screenshots

[verbal dagger]

if they're talking about that tan supporter one isn't that the b1301?

[eternal crow]

I just looked back at the trailer and it wasn’t in it. I’m thinking of the Xbox store screenshot though

[stable kernel]

Which one?

I might just be missing it, but I see the beanbag in a few of them

[wet owl]

I don’t see anything that suggests the b1301 entry is in the trailer or screenshots

[eternal crow]

I just looked back at the trailer and it wasn’t in it. I’m thinking of the Xbox store screenshot though

[stable kernel]

Yeah you said that

[upbeat slate]

Anyone have an issue with some of the weapons on Dorms just disappearing? My friend & I have basically S-ranked it nearly 10 times & keep getting cheated by 3 or 4 weapons just not appearing

[honest jetty]

elephant is more disturbing to me. But its also fucking annoying

[tawdry stag]

i got S at elephant on my first try didnt realize how annoying it was until i tried for the second time

[still willow]

You mean the screenshot of the guy holding the tan shotgun with a shell rack and sight on it

Ngl I'm colorblind so I probably shouldn't be asked colors...

[stable kernel]

Known issue for dorms and twisted nerve, the knives can be invisible. You gotta play it solo with ai so they can bag them, or just get lucky

[honest jetty]

its so rrushed you gotta find the suspects who also kills the hostages and you gotta find the bombs in 9 minites

[tawdry stag]

bombs are easy to find annoying part is the suspects they sometimes kill the hostages way too fast like bro chill tf out i just got inside building

[upbeat slate]

oh damn, are the devs aware & planning to fix it? I can barely even find anyone else talking about it. Huge letdown S-ranking everything in a mission & then not being able to complete it cause of that glitch

[honest jetty]

atp i dont even know what rewards i get for s im just gonna kill them all

[fathom idol]

I think review bombing the game isn’t going to do anything lol

[still willow]

Review bombing bc they don't know anything lmao

[dim swallow]

Is George M still in the game

[karmic charm]

one fix is to use the ai to secure evidences because they seem to just pick it up from the depths of earth 💀

[dim swallow]

They got them special interdimensional vacuum cleaners to suck up all the evidence

[karmic charm]

frfr

[upbeat slate]

Yeah, I guess we'll just have to do it in singleplayer or use the mod that adds ai squadmates to coop 😦 just a shame we can't do it legit

[dim swallow]

I love the squadmates in coop mod

Makes duoing levels bearable as you have 4 AI officers to assist

[eternal crow]

I was looking at it the other night

I’ll send a picture when I get home

[dim swallow]

I just wish you could issue orders via helmetcam just like swat 4 so i dont have to be present near them giving them orders and shit

I remember playing 3LT and i had my AI buddies pull security on the main building while me and my friend breach and clear

[upbeat slate]

oh I was wondering whether that was in RoN, was a bit annoying having to go back & forth between teams to command them lol

[dim swallow]

Yea its a shame you cant issue orders via helmetcam, even though they literally added a fullscreen mode via the atak

[dim swallow]

It felt pretty badass when occasionally we'd hear a brief firefight followed by "suspect down." from my teammates while we're inside the hotel CQB'ing the guys

[wet owl]

I need a key that just yells get out of the building for civilians with an area of effect. Probably just extremely gimmicky since the only use I can think of would be in Elephant

[buoyant pecan]

I had mfs killing civilians right as I was defusing bombs

That’s one of the missions that’s much harder on single player commander mode

Cause my squad mates were just standing around me and there was no command to get them to defuse the bomb

[chilly hatch]

Why would anything happen? Void finished selling the game on PC, it plateau'd. Now it's time to cash in on console.

Kind of wish I could refund the Supporter Edition DLC. I uniquely bought it to support them after the school shooting debacle for sticking to their vision.

[honest jetty]

you already bought the game anyways review bombing is not gonna give you that refund lmao

[fathom idol]

Fr

[chilly hatch]

I'm trying to refund the DLC, just in case. Who knows. Steam has refunded other things in the past way past its expiry date.

[karmic charm]

when will they fix the suspects not surrendering

its kinda annoying when running solo S rank on commander ironman mode

because i cant even restart even if i want to or maybe i should give up solo S rank on ironman mode and just keep it to quick play

[wet owl]

Alt f4

[karmic charm]

does it fr work?

[wet owl]

Yes as long as you do it before the you died screen

[karmic charm]

oh thanks i'll keep that in mind next time

[wet owl]

Have you shot them with beanbag or Flashed or cs’d their ass?

[karmic charm]

yes, bean bagged them multiple times

[honest jetty]

not talking about you talking to the other person

[wet owl]

What enemy was it?

[karmic charm]

the glitch seems to happen when i arrest a suspect against the corner of a wall or an object and after they drop the gun they suddenly stand up

[karmic charm]

on any suspects

[honest jetty]

how hard is rustbelt because there is way too many damn rewards for b rank

[wet owl]

odd never had that issue

[karmic charm]

yeah idk it started happening today for me as well i've never experienced it before

[honest jetty]

happened to me too

[wet owl]

That’s the cave one right? Not exactly hard

[karmic charm]

its not that bad

hardest imo is hospital because its literally impossible to solo S rank

[honest jetty]

Void said fuck it and add the rest rewards onto rustbelt

[wet owl]

what rewards are there?

[honest jetty]

atleast like 5 outfits

[wet owl]

oh… But like the Hawaiian shirt is good enough for me and I only wear that

[honest jetty]

i have a mod on which makes every clothes different so thats why i dedicate for the rewards

[wet owl]

gonna complete this hermit run and then just try and s rank the rest of the levels

[chilly hatch]

Yeah I know but wanted to chime in 😦

[honest jetty]

anyways time to run and gun elephant

[wet owl]

idk how the fuck you s elephant

[restive ferry]

Walk in backwards and they will think you’re one of the shooters

[honest jetty]

"Who are we hiding from?"

its so tempting to start permadeath mode for the watch

[deft star]

My first run in the hotel and the laurie music guy is bugged on the floor crawling and i cant do anything but kill him smh

[wet owl]

Abuse the fact that you can s the first level easily to up moral

[restive ferry]

Just get it over with

[karmic charm]

use beanbag shotgun and just run in, no time for flashes and just fast clear everything with tilt and not using lean too often unless you hear a suspect in a particular area

[sharp roost]

Can someone give me 7 days early access to the game on console please

[shy tulip]

Only if you say the line (pfp)

[stable kernel]

https://tenor.com/view/say-the-line-bart-school-millhouse-classroom-gif-26683141

[sharp roost]

Wait I’m thinking

[restive ferry]

Give me 7 days early access instead. I don’t even have a console so it will not even be used

[sharp roost]

Wait idk anymore 💔

[shy tulip]

One job

[twin musk]

#🎨ron-screenshots-and-art

dripped tf out lol

[karmic charm]

why tf does the optiwand cause the game to crash 💀

i was halfway through clearing S rank but now i gotta restart 🥹

[wet owl]

💀 💀 💀 What

[karmic charm]

when i use it on the door, my player has a split second black screen because its loading the other side of the door but for me now it just stays stuck there and then my game crashses

smh 😔

[twin musk]

you got any mods installed?

could be a texture crash or smn

[karmic charm]

i only got the AI improvement and the gunfighter improvement mod...

just wondering but does the paramedic trait also apply for Judge? as in myself, the player

[shy tulip]

Uhhh, idk if it'll save you in an ironman run

@crude prism I summon thee

[karmic charm]

ah okok

yeah i was wondering if that could act as a second life lol

[stable kernel]

Negative

You dead you dead

[karmic charm]

okok tyty

[gilded inlet]

Is the Censor patch already live or does that come on the 15th?

[covert aurora]

the changes come with the 15th

[gilded inlet]

ohokay so the game if i were to purchase it right now and play it are uncensored? thats great I wanted to buy this game but all of the bad reviews had me thinking the patch hit. Gonna try to play it all before the censors come then

[velvet whale]

why thereis a censored ship.. create a button for uncensored ship and censored for players

[boreal gale]

Why do i always get no scoped? :Sob:

[novel meadow]

i dont get why ppl get so mad over a barely noticable censor patch

[cobalt sail]

Wow we are on r/gaming

“Censor bad!”

[gilded inlet]

From what i've read, it seems like some of the more memorable moments of the game have been toned down, and that just kinda sucks. It's not the devs fault.

[waxen dagger]

The "censorship" is really not that bad, I've not played the game yet as I am waiting for the console release but I've watched countless videos on RoN for years now and the game is still the same. The negativity is completely unwarranted and absurd.

[nimble birch]

Because it goes against the mission statement of not shying away from what real SWAT and emergency responders, respond to

[bitter mason]

The censorships are just for the console version though aren't they

[gilded inlet]

No pc too

[cursive minnow]

Wouldn't be as many complainers if that were the case.

[bitter mason]

Oh damn i thought it was just console

That does suck

[nimble birch]

[For context, I'm someone who loves the dark stuff, like, give it to me, give me all the horrible stuff that happens in the world, don't hide it from me, I am a child of the internet, I've seen it]

[cursive minnow]

There are going to be some things that are only on console but most of it will be the same for all platforms.

[bitter mason]

I feel like that's pretty unnecessary :/

[tawdry laurel]

People crying about not being able to mutilate a body after death as a police officer or the fact they removed pictures of kids is crazy to me.. minimal changes. Still lots of dark gritty content in the game and the gore system is still there.

[bitter mason]

I get needing to change it for console ratings but they already exist on pc

[cursive minnow]

Due to their want of having it crossplay it's necessary.

[tawdry laurel]

Nothing has changed to shy away from that?

[gilded inlet]

swat teams definitely don't have god censoring what they see before they go into a room

[tawdry laurel]

Swat officers don’t mutilate suspects once they’re down in the real world. And the kids pictures got swapped out for error messages but the evidence and environmental storytelling is still there.. if you’re getting mad of kids pictures being removed I don’t know what to tell you bro.

[cursive minnow]

You act like they're white streaking the screen like they do in some animes.

[stone stump]

it's not necessary, it's just easier for them to make it this way (and that's fine given how they like introducing bugs and not fixing them for years)

[bitter mason]

Yeah the visuals and whatnot are all still client side

[cursive minnow]

Yea I know cause they don't want to maintain different versions.

[rain badger]

The people complaining about censorship are just sad lol this is the funniest thing Ive seen in a long while. Actual grown adults complaining they can't see a crazy mans junk and naked, emaciated, trafficked women in a container

[tawdry laurel]

They’re still gonna be naked fyi that’s not what’s changed

[bitter mason]

It's not a big deal
I do think ron is too over the top in places and I wouldn't mind missions being toned down

[bleak wing]

I'm lost what's going on about censorship?

[rain badger]

Then why is everyone whining aside from gore slightly changing and that dudes junk being slightly more covered? Is it the "principle?" Boo hoo

[bitter mason]

But I would rather it be for making the story and world feel more realistic and not because of censorship

[cursive minnow]

Just read the pinned message if you want to be informed properly.

[gilded inlet]

@tawdry laurel @rain badger it's not just that "people want to mutilate bodies". Literally nobody said they want to see this stuff specifically. These are childish takes.

Censoring the little memorable moments that help make the game feel fresh and like an artistic experience is what sucks for most people. For example walking into a room as a first time player and seeing a child sleeping vs walking in and seeing a child convulsing on the floor, that will change the way you experience and remember that moment. And those things add up

[bitter mason]

Anyways mods exist if people want to mutilate bodies I'm sure a mod will unlock it

[rain badger]

It doesn't change much seeing the kid convulsing instead of just sleeping with a condom and needle next to her. Thats a deranged take.

[tawdry laurel]

I thought they was keeping the nudity they’re just making the guy look a little bit less ‘tortured’ and haven’t heard anything about the chicks in the containers being censored only the fact you can’t mutilate and blow limbs off suspects after they’re already dead and taking away the pictures of kids on a computer screen in one missions and replacing it with ‘error’

[gilded inlet]

no the animations are changing too not just pictures. i don't think people care about the gore stuff

[bleak wing]

Thanks choom

[rain badger]

muh mersions are ruined and the game is ruined

[twin musk]

HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

THAT ACHIEVEMENT IS SO ASS

[halcyon mountain]

Yeah that sums it up nicely. Kinda wild this is where we are in 2025.. and THIS is the hill they choose to die on lmao

[gloomy schooner]

yo

[twin musk]

FINALLY ITS OVER

[gloomy schooner]

I'm new but do they have a sprint mechanic bc this is getting stupid asf

[twin musk]

MEDAL OF VALOR ACQUIRED

[gloomy schooner]

also why is the loading shi so damn long

[twin musk]

they do not
but there is a mod for it if you want more sped

[gilded inlet]

its not about that at all. nobody cares about the pictures and the gore

[halcyon mountain]

Remap key bind for low/high ready

[twin musk]

textures?
and ai loading?

[gloomy schooner]

deadass which one

[rain badger]

The game will certainly still be an incredibly depressing and fucked up time, people freaking out read censorship and have an anyuerism.

[twin musk]

www.nexusmods.com/readyornot/mods/4047?tab=files
copy that into search

[gloomy schooner]

I'm in the loading screen before a mission for like 3-5 minutes every time I feel like I'm looking at the black screen longer than I'm in a mission

[tawdry laurel]

Yes but police officers blowing limbs off of dead suspects ISNT REALISTIC. And going into a swat raid and seeing a child in those conditions will hit just as hard.. there’s still plenty of environmental storytelling and evidence and fucked up moments in the game for everyone to experience. For the good of future content, the game being supported for the foreseeable and for a bigger and more engaging playerbase I’m happy to make these tiny sacrifices and so should you if you support the game.

[gloomy schooner]

ight

[halcyon mountain]

Is it the PrInCiPlE of it all ??

[twin musk]

that might be your pc bc it loads pretty fast for me

[gloomy schooner]

it's hella buggy too

[twin musk]

oh yea

[gloomy schooner]

idk I set priority to realtime and it's still hella slow

[gilded inlet]

"Yes but police officers blowing limbs off of dead suspects ISNT REALISTIC" totally agree nobody cares abuot that

[twin musk]

brother no one cares

I think people complaining about censorship forget that a console release will bring in a ton of money hopefully. More money for the devs, means more content and a longer life of the game. If that helps the devs, they can take away small details 99.9% of the players don't even explore.

And nobody cares about seeing a kid sleeping rather than convulsing. It’s still a swat raid. There’s still a child in those circumstances. It’s still fucked up.

Look, all I'm saying is: don't blame Void. Sure, they could give the middle finger to Sony/PlayStation, Microsoft/Xbox, and the rating boards and just skip those platforms entirely but I don't see anything wrong with them making money from what they've created. Even with the censorship, the game still feels like a breath of fresh air in an industry that's become overly "woke" lately.

If you're going to blame someone, blame the people enforcing those guidelines likely out of touch decision makers clinging to outdated ideals not Void. The only thing Void should be blamed for is the bugs they haven’t fixed or the content they still haven’t added.

nobody forgot that thats why people are upset. they don't care that you can't mutilate corpses after they die. Theyre just like "ah it kinda sucks that games have to censor to make more money' that's it. nobodies having an aneurism on this, if anything it's the people typing in all caps saying how stupid i am that seem more upset than anyone i've seen lol

[gilded inlet]

Yep literally said it's not the devs fault it's the industry, all creative industries are being ruined by greed, THATS what people are complaining about not "mutilating dead bodies"

[twin musk]

best thing is, is that those people are complaining about nothing bc the changes havent been made yet

[rain badger]

This is a perfect summary. More money, more better. These devs made such an incredible experience and people would rather complain than have the devs succeed.

[gilded inlet]

thats nottt the pointttttt

we want the devs to have more money. the people are upset that they have to dial back their tone to get more money
