👮ron-discussion

[willow trail]

Like there’s actually makeshift baracdes

[stone bay]

plus the concept of "ready or not" is highly thematic, and highlights the fine line between legal and illegal use of force, the limitations of the police, and how the legitimacy of a SWAT team is evaluated by how the job is performed

so that making a moral choice could fall on the wrong side of authorization

[dusty shuttle]

Fair, but I honestly don't think the drama would be worth it. It's one thing to respond to a school shooting in a story mode where you are trying to save the kids, its another to be playing both sides and fighting in one

[dusty shuttle]

That'd be brilliant

[willow trail]

I’m not saying one side has to be school shooters, and the other side has to be swat, I just kind of assumed it would be like an operator versus other operators kind of thing

[tacit gull]

I would personally love a RON show with each episode starting off with a small scene before the old "police theme" starting notes play and the scene goes black and white and melts with the red line going over the whole intro

shit would be kino

But with the current game writing i would hate watching it

[dusty shuttle]

Cowboy bebop type intro mixed with a 1960's 70's spy thriller

[willow trail]

Like if it’s a one on one, start it either side of the map or something and just both be swat, clean the map up a little bit and say that it’s “active shooter training” local police forces do all the time during the summertime and stuff they’ll go into schools and sweep and clear like they’re in an actual shooting scenario

[stone bay]

so essentislly the entire budget of a police force only counts up until the moment they are posted at a door about to make dynamic entry. after that moment it is all completely up to chance - being "ready" is whether a human being can psychologically navigate the unknown

[dusty shuttle]

I don't think my parents could stomic it, not that it's a bad story. But the current story still pulls zero punches even with the censorship

RoN is a game where I come out more stressed than I did coming in

[slim fern]

Dude an episode around the mission Ends of the Earth would get me crying

[stone bay]

i have been writing my whole life but am quite motivated to capitalize on the themes explored in the game, even if the backstory is just there to provide cool levels

[dusty shuttle]

Would be perfect to show the moral choice concept bunny talked about

Hell a mini series could work.

Take like 8 of the "best" levels and make like 10 minute episodes on them

[willow trail]

Like I get it, a lot of people have like big emotions and playing ready or not but me and my friend just like to go in there and fuck around. Like we “warm up” by shooting the 88 heat tat guy like mag dumping him then PvP-ing in the training course then we go in with shotguns and blow everything to pieces it doesn’t always have to be doom and gloom

[stone bay]

the irony of course is that they are compelled to make only one choice, it just may not be moral, which contributes to psychological instabilityh

[slim fern]

Or like a mockumentary where the officers recall what happened and what it was like working with judge

[lucid mango]

Hi guys

[dusty shuttle]

With friends and a group of people it is a different expierience, but I played most/all the levels on my own with no people/backround noise

[willow trail]

Like the King Von documentary thing “that fella was a DEMON” “Von was CRAZY in them streets man he was a KILLA”

[dusty shuttle]

The entire show is "set" in the debreifing room with the therapist and we see everything through flashbacks

things start to change as they get more stressed recalling events

[willow trail]

I have too and it hits different but I feel like the ai is kinda too dumb and takes me out of thr immersion also I’ll be immersed, and then I’ll shoot someone and they fly 30 feet in the air

Sometimes it’s just really hard to take the game seriously when stuff like that happens, you know?

[dusty shuttle]

AI is weird %100, but when you look through the call logs on elephant and listen them alone. That shit just sticks even with the goofy AI

[stone bay]

overall if there is a tv show, the over-arching theme would have to be the question of how we approach crime constructively instead of indiscriminately exposing people to police intervention, and how change can be effected beyond the call of duty, since shooting and beating people seems to be a hundred headed hydra

[willow trail]

I don’t ever really listen to the call logs I did on my first time doing the missions and never again

[slim fern]

Yeah and Judge is nowhere to be seen, because he was taken by the USIA and was never seen again. That would be sick

[willow trail]

Speaking of I think it would be cool to see canonically you capture Gerard, and he’s putting the holding cell but the feds take him away before he can go to trial and he’s never heard from again and there’s a big overreaching cover-up

[dusty shuttle]

Following an officer who is an unreliable narrator because of the amount of stress and PTSD he has from all the missions would make for a really good mystery show

[dusty shuttle]

I haven't dived too deep into the USIA and goverment conspericy part as I should have, along with the ARG because I know once I do I won't come out

[stone bay]

i think given the number of topics covered in the game, the challenge would be how to tie it all together in a digestible way lol

[willow trail]

Seven different series all of them were a slightly different title, but all of them share the same part of the title ready or not

[dusty shuttle]

Do like a marvel MCU and have each one be seperate but still connect in some way

Or put it under the cover of how Los Santos is a broken city, and explore the different problems

[stone bay]

nah i think it can be done in one show, but would need some efficient storytelling or just straight up educating the viewer on each topic

[willow trail]

Ready or not: officer stories
Ready or not: the coverup
Ready or not: gangs

[stone bay]

like each episode would be an essay

[willow trail]

Jsut leave it to Shayne

I’m sure he’ll do it eventually

[stone bay]

particularly how each form of crime, like drug trafficking, contributes to an untenable situation for law enforcement in which they benefit off of instability, so that heightening risk improves budgets but the human in the uniforms carries the burden

[dusty shuttle]

Also another thing, do we market this to the players, or do we market it as a gateway into the game.

Is our target audience people who already play? Or is it GETTING people to play?

[stone bay]

especially when opioid analogues are rampant and uncontrollable

[willow trail]

So I might be missing something in the grand scheme of things I get why the Cloudflare security shoots at us because I think that we’re fake cops, but why would Amos voll’s security shoot at us

[stone bay]

voll's security mumbles stuff like "if i go in, its all over" so theyre clearly in on the heart of the issue

they know the cops know they know

[slim fern]

And we can see in game that these burdens do end up with officers who go out themselves and commit acts of violence

[dusty shuttle]

Idk man, Amos is wealthy and could prob pay a shit ton for those security. And with that money and the fact that at least in the back of their minds they know if they get caught they get pinned on the whole child exploitation thing. Yeah I'd shoot too.

[stone bay]

i was going to recommend an arc in which one team member retires due to traumatic experiences and ends up attempting to become a vigilante, and is ultimately confronted by the protag in an operation

[willow trail]

Chris stone form void interactive looks like a guy who would 1) work for void and 2) be named Chris stone

[slim fern]

Like how am I supposed to feel when one of my officers jumps off the building because of the stuff he's seen?

[willow trail]

Yeah fair enough but the probability of killing a swat team?

(As if I haven’t gotten pepered to death by them hundreds of times now)

[stone bay]

i think its more like, the security guards are already there and the SWAT shows up, voll is paying them to be fodder anyway

[harsh kindle]

What do you mean first pt?

[dusty shuttle]

If you kill the swat team: You get the money and you may not get tied to the whole CP scheme
If you die: You don't have to live with the guilt or consequences of what you were defending
If you live and get arrested: You get charged with that shit

[willow trail]

And what’s crazy to me is that Amos fool most of the time sits in his office like he’s in the führerbunker

[willow trail]

If you kill the swat team there will be something worse… federal agents 😟😟

[stone bay]

the reason SWAT chose that day was because it was his daughter's birthday, so theres a high likelihood he'd be in the house

[dusty shuttle]

Some people are afraid to die, some rather die than live with what they have done

[willow trail]

I mean, if I knew that that was gonna happen to me I’m either gonna be killed or in prison for a majority of my life. Id rather go out with a fight.

[stone bay]

i dont think any of those security guards are thinking about any of this lol, i think they just get the job and one day the SWAT busts in

[dusty shuttle]

Most security don't get paid well anyway, with the amount of money Voss probably gave them, I wouldn't be surpised if they would accept the order to shoot at SWAT

[willow trail]

It’s not like you need much you don’t even have to shoot anybody, you can shoot yourself or just in the direction of them, either way you’re dead before you hit the ground

[dusty shuttle]

Thats also very probable

[stone bay]

so really each security guard has a split second to think about whats going on, whether to shoot or not, which is precisely the same dilemma as the officers confronting them

[willow trail]

They probably don’t think about any of this because they’re AI and not programmed to think like this they just have different whey points that they go to to shoot at the player character and swat AI

[dusty shuttle]

Well YEAH but cmon we talking about lore and the show

The AI is goofy here nobody denying that

[willow trail]

When they eat half a can of pepper spray and two beanbag shells, they tend to change their mind on shooting pretty fast

[willow trail]

Why, of course I’m fun at parties. Why would you ask?

[dusty shuttle]

LMAO

[slim fern]

If judge was more vocal I'd think he'll get along well with Rust Cohle from True Detective

[stone bay]

exactly

[willow trail]

I think that judge and detective Cole Phelps badge 1247 from the hit rockstar games classic LA noir would get along pretty well

[dusty shuttle]

While it would be cool for the in game AI to have different personalities and react to situations different from each other, I ain't gonna push that on an indie studio

[slim fern]

They kinda do, They can comment on stuff they see in missions and voicelines for their traits

[dusty shuttle]

I meant more of different reactions to seeing swat and surrendering.

I do find it a little funny that some of the civilians in a school shooting situation pull out their phones and yell at the police

[stone bay]

everyone thinks theyre above the law

[bitter mason]

Civie and suspect voice lines and unique behaviour could definite be improved

[dusty shuttle]

Indeed, I was in a school shooter situation once (thank god it was false) but I will bet any amount of money that nobody besides the person who made the call to get out of a test would even have the thought pop into their heads about resisting the police even a little bit

[jade jolt]

Guys can we have a petition so that the devs have mnk support on consoles on launch?

[dusty shuttle]

I would just make a feedback or a suggestion

Don't make a petition until it is 100% sure it wont come

[jade jolt]

Well i need ppl with me not me alone

[dusty shuttle]

I mean I doubt it won't have it

Xbox already has mnk for some games, and this game already released on PC

[jade jolt]

Yeah that's what im seeing the game is already have crossplay why wouldn't it have mnk support

[quartz night]

Guys I have a question if a lobby host has the dlcs can other people still play it even if they don’t have it or na

[amber dock]

Only host needs DLC

[dusty shuttle]

Yes, if you are the host of the lobby and have the DLC, you can play the levels with your squad

[amber dock]

for everyone to play DLC maps

[quartz night]

Alr thanks good to know

[open elk]

Is there going to be pc Xbox cross play?

[amber dock]

Yeah

[coarse scarab]

Do you recommend any good mod for blood/damage etc.?

[molten pilot]

So chat I've got a question to people who maybe understand the points system a bit better, me and my friend are trying to do some mission for B to unlock cool stuff but no matter what we do we can't get it higher than C, no minus points, all evidence collected, is it just a skill issue moment for not having more friends and only playing as duo with 200 points for all officers standing instead of 400 with full squad?

[slim fern]

Not many mods for that but the few that exist aren’t hard to find and they’re good

[amber dock]

Arrest more people alive is the easy thing to say

you only get 5 for a dead one

while 35 for each alive one

So imagine you kill 2

[molten pilot]

So we have to go non-lethal even if we don't want an S? pretty damn hard to arrest them with real guns

[amber dock]

that's already 60 points you've lost

[narrow dome]

Arrest people instead of shooting them, do the soft objectives if the map has them, make sure nobody dies

[amber dock]

Use flashbangs

stingers,taser

you don't need beanbag or pepperball

[coarse scarab]

kk thx

[narrow dome]

@slim fern magazine fed pump shotgun

[molten pilot]

So theres another question regarding the 2nd part, are the points somehow calculated other way if there's less people playing? It's pretty big difference in 200 and 400 points for "all officers alive"

[narrow dome]

You can get s rank with just yourself

[amber dock]

It could in theory matterbut if we take S rank for example you can get it even if you're solo or full team

the easier way is just arrest more people alive

[narrow dome]

I almost did on twisted nerve but I missed 2 or 3 pieces of evidence

I think they clipped into the carpet and I couldn't see them, I've noticed that happens alot

[amber dock]

cause it's a bug

[narrow dome]

I guessed as much

[tall spindle]

there also a glitch in the same mission when you arrest them on stairs for the attic chance the gun gets stuck under there aswell

[amber dock]

that's what sal was talking about

that map and Dorms have this issue

So S rank in MP is basically impossible without mods

on those 2 maps

[tall spindle]

i did not know dorms had that issue

[desert island]

happened to me twice

[bleak wren]

whats the most controversial RoN opinion yall have? ill go first, i dont think there is any reason to use JHP

[stone bay]

i have no controversial opinions on ron

would be crazy if i did

[hollow mist]

3 days people

[languid sapphire]

The old TOC voice was lowkey hot

[stone bay]

wild

[haughty oriole]

it would be cool if we could have flag patches, it would make a big difference in character customization

I'm referring to the vanilla game ofc

[slim fern]

We’re playing as American LEOs, not a multi-national task force.

[narrow dome]

Let me slap the non binary flag on my arm

Mods nuke this guy

[buoyant pecan]

Thinkin bout Twisted Nerve music

No need to respond like that

[bleak wren]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[haughty oriole]

I meant flags not pride stuff anyways

[slim fern]

Dude’s got pepe in his pfp of course he’ll say something like that

[haughty oriole]

still it would be cool asf

[buoyant pecan]

For some reason playing Ghost Recon Wildlands I headcanoned Nomad as being Canadian so I put Canadian flags on his stuff lol

[narrow dome]

Pride flags are flags

[haughty oriole]

country flags

[buoyant pecan]

Ready Or Not 2 set in Toronto so you can hear enemies and civilians have the worst accent ever

[bleak wren]

can we keep the US cop game US based

[narrow dome]

The country of Lebanese /j

[bleak wren]

dude just be normal

[slim fern]

The glorious country of Transylvania 🏳️‍⚧️

[buoyant pecan]

My ideal setting for RoN 2 would be Florida (Miami or Orlando) or Vegas tbh

[haughty oriole]

Yeah, exactly. In ghost recon wildlands and breakpoint it is clearly stated often that ghosts are American special forces dudes, still they have other countries patches

why? Cause it's cool

[buoyant pecan]

Or New Jersey

[haughty oriole]

Detroit.

[buoyant pecan]

Imagine a firefight on a Wildwood or Ocean City style boardwalk

[haughty oriole]

I'll die on a Detroit hill

[buoyant pecan]

I need to play more Ghost Recon
The recent ones and the classics

[bleak wren]

chicago

[narrow dome]

Mfers stole my porch can't have shit in detriot

[buoyant pecan]

Detroit and Chicago both great ideas
More Midwest representation in games would be cool

[haughty oriole]

why tf would someone steal a porch 🙏

[buoyant pecan]

Cleveland lmao

Why tf Sal get muted lol

[haughty oriole]

probably cause of the joke

[buoyant pecan]

Muted for saying they’d like a pride flag but the person who said “eww” to that is fine? lol

[robust shadow]

I would love a sniper overwatch feature in the future

[buoyant pecan]

Or muted for the Detroit joke?

[haughty oriole]

the pride joke

[bleak wren]

yes i am just fine

[buoyant pecan]

Odd

[bleak wren]

why?

[haughty oriole]

Also I don't know where this pride thing came out from, I just said "it would be cool to have countries flag patches" couldn't make it more obvious :/

[buoyant pecan]

I think it’s odd that lighthearted joke is muted and then going “eww” about lgbt is fine

Tho maybe they were muted for being a smartass afterwards lol

[haughty oriole]

I wanna play as a spetznaz dude 🙏😭

[buoyant pecan]

Russia or Not

[slim fern]

You're more than welcome to install mods so that you could play as them

[haughty oriole]

nah ima console dude

[buoyant pecan]

East coast setting would be cool like SWAT4

[slim fern]

Oh yeah, SWAT4 was in washington state right?

[buoyant pecan]

My most wanted map in the game is prolly a Fairfax style serial killer level

[buoyant pecan]

New York

[slim fern]

Got my directions wrong

[haughty oriole]

I have a feeling this game will feature a bank someday

[buoyant pecan]

A game like this set in DC would be crazy

[haughty oriole]

Either a bank or something fucked up like a hospital

[verbal mountain]

There is a hospital

[buoyant pecan]

We have a hospital level

[slim fern]

There is a hospital level

[haughty oriole]

oh shit didn't know

[buoyant pecan]

Probably my least favorite level tbh lol

[slim fern]

it's large with 2 sections as well

[buoyant pecan]

Torn between that and the post office being my least favorite

[haughty oriole]

yeah i didn't look at every single map cause I don't wanna spoil everything

[verbal mountain]

You prefer the post service level over the hospital??

[stone bay]

really???

[slim fern]

SERIOUSLY. Screw that FISA agent

[stone bay]

greased hams is hard but i think its fun

[buoyant pecan]

Not sure
Post office is at least a bit smaller and has cool music

But I HATE that one section with all the conveyor belts

[stone bay]

you guys have music turned on????

[verbal mountain]

I don’t

[buoyant pecan]

I do
Soundtrack too good for me not to

[slim fern]

at a low volume, yes

[haughty oriole]

always have music on my games

[verbal mountain]

I normally have Spotify on

[stone bay]

you can hear the perps so i never have it on

[buoyant pecan]

I can’t imagine playing Valley of the Dolls or Twisted Nerve without that awesome music

[stone bay]

[haughty oriole]

25% of games experience rely on music for the immersion/vibes. I don't understand why people just straight up set it to 0.

[slim fern]

Rust belt and Greased palms have the best leitmotif in their music

[stone bay]

game would be much harder if i couldnt hear a lot of things

[haughty oriole]

you don't need to have it at max

[stone bay]

i still dont want to hear anything except environment

[verbal mountain]

Tbh I didn’t even know RoN had an OST until like 2 days ago

[haughty oriole]

If it's a "complicated" game I set music lower than voices and environmental sounds, but never at 0.

[buoyant pecan]

I know it’s less “tacticool realism” to have music on but
The music is really damn good and contributes to the atmosphere heavily

[slim fern]

TBH it doesn't get distracting

[buoyant pecan]

Yea I don’t think it’s that distracting other than the nightclub level
And that’s by design

[stone bay]

not even tacticool, i just only want to hear the level

i dont even know if swat4 had music because i turned it off immediately lol

[buoyant pecan]

(Plus you can turn off the music in the club by walking up to the DJ’s setup)

[haughty oriole]

Just like every game out there tbf.

[buoyant pecan]

It does
It’s got some bangers

I’m not sure if Fairfax without music would be more or less scary

The ambient soundtrack is fantastic
And the beat that kicks in if you get in a fight with the killer

[haughty oriole]

it may sound weird but I judge a bit of the game's worth basing on the ost it provides. If it sucks I might not play the game anymore. Hot take? For many it can be.

Music is just too important for a game

[slim fern]

Dude the music for greased palms straight up sounds like something in breaking bad
https://youtu.be/UPSwCPTZhuc?si=3YorYvOYKfby-4F8&t=386

[stone bay]

gamers are so picky man just enjoy things

[haughty oriole]

Bro don't say the G word, that's scary.

[stone bay]

job application

[haughty oriole]

but think about it: imagine for a second battlefield 1 without it's music

[stone bay]

would love to be a swat team operator except its a job and id have to fill out a job app 💔

[haughty oriole]

it wouldn't be the same, same goes for RON I'd suppose I've seen quite a praise for it's OST

[south snow]

what am i even supposed to do when a suspects holds a civilian hostage with a beanbag shotgun

they keep slitting their throats

[verbal mountain]

I think gas or flashbang

[haughty oriole]

it's time for you to remember the basics of CQC

[verbal mountain]

Or shoot their leg maybe

[stone bay]

gas

that also indicates that they knew you were there and had time to think to grab a hostage, which is why entering a room without alerting everyone is key

[slim fern]

If you have a flash grenade launcher fire somewhere behind them it should work

[zenith estuary]

I set mine to around 10%. I'd like to hear footsteps and other audio ques

[buoyant pecan]

I could never be a cop lol

[verbal mountain]

Why’s that

[slim fern]

The music is designed to be played with the background, the more melodic parts play after the fighting is over or a objective is completed

[buoyant pecan]

A bunch of reasons
I’d be too scared and mentally unwell to deal with a lot of the situations
I also don’t really like authority figures much so I can’t see myself taking that role

[haughty oriole]

Can you even hear it at 10%

[buoyant pecan]

VOTD and Twisted Nerve have the best music for sure

Thank You Come Again’s music slaps too
And the car dealership

[slim fern]

They're all bangers

[buoyant pecan]

The Spider’s music is really creepy and fits the atmosphere so well

I understand why Elephant doesn’t have music but I’m curious what kinda music it would have

[slim fern]

Probably some leitmotifs from the Hand, because we know that level and the nightclub level are connected

But since it's a very real issue, I prefer it without music

[buoyant pecan]

Yea it’s also inspired by the 2003 movie Elephant, which used very little music

[zenith estuary]

It depends on the game I might keep it on but just slightly below.

For RON I'll probably set to 70% while I first play through it

I can hear it slightly at 10% but only when it's really quite SFX wise

[buoyant pecan]

If I were to make a track for the level it would probably be mostly sad and unsettling ambience, with a creepy pulsing sound when suspects start attacking you

[slim fern]

Also a sad detail, the person who did the evidence for that level had a son that died at the college and you can see that he quit his job after

[buoyant pecan]

Yea he wrote “MY LITTLE BOY” on the evidence box and the phrase “FUCK IT” over every space

The guy giving you the briefing talking about how his kid went to that college gets to me too

[slim fern]

The phone calls too...

IDK if it's intentional, but he does return during Home Invasion and Dark waters so he definitely got some professional help

[buoyant pecan]

Yea I don’t get the complaints that the level needed to be a high school

[slim fern]

I don't get that either

[buoyant pecan]

It’s devastating already
And shootings happen at colleges a lot

So it’s not like it’s toning down the realism

[winter sparrow]

The shock factor doesn’t really change at all

[buoyant pecan]

Yeah exactly

[willow trail]

Should’ve made it an elementary and the given an achievement for waiting outside for 40 minutes

[buoyant pecan]

Skull emoji lmao

[willow trail]

But yeah I get what you mean it’s still a shocking setting to be in

And you have to throw out every clearing tactic you know to actually get a good score and save lives

[winter sparrow]

You also can’t go slow

[willow trail]

Run and gun like an actual active shooter scenario

[slim fern]

Yeah its 4 suspects in a medium sized map

and after 2 minutes they begin shooting any civilians in sight

[willow trail]

Also has anyone ever had an issue with the bombs in the map? Like the hospital takes some time to clear so I got blown up once or twice but never on the school

[slim fern]

Thats because most people don't take more than 12 minutes on the map

any more than that the bomb goes off (unless it's defused)

[willow trail]

I think they could’ve made it a lot more nerve wracking if there was like a 25% chance for one random grenade trap to spawn on the map

Like why not worse case scenario civie blows themself up best case scenario you disarm it

[winter sparrow]

Maybe on hard mode when that comes out

[willow trail]

Yeah that’d be cool

[winter sparrow]

I think that’s adding in random traps?

[willow trail]

I wish there were more trap kinds

Or maybe suspects like the militarized ones try and use grenades

Maybe not frags but they throw stingers and try and ambush d platoon

[winter sparrow]

Maybe like a shotgun trigger tied to a string trap

[willow trail]

Yes an ankle deleter

Or possibly they could utilize the civilian bomb vest in more maps like it woudont make too much sense but in the hospital maybe

[winter sparrow]

Something like that in the lethal obsession map would fit in

[willow trail]

Yes

Pro tip for clearing mines, guns and c2

[winter sparrow]

Blast the door with a breaching shotgun

[willow trail]

See a mine stand back and shoot it, can’t see the other side of the door? Blow it down

[willow trail]

Even better make a sacrificial teammate use a ram

Stand back and watch the fireworks

[desert island]

breaching shotgun is eh

c2 is the only realistic way of dealing with a trap door

[winter sparrow]

It’s not realistic when u use it yourself

Or in swat terms I think

[desert island]

swat terms i duno if someone is gona shoot the door while being that close

they wuld just blow up the door

[winter sparrow]

I can only speak for the UK but they usually use battering rams for home raids

[desert island]

but i guess if they dont know theres a trap theyll ram it and die lo

[willow trail]

Iranian embassy SAS raid

They used a c4-like compound to breach the upstairs window frames

[winter sparrow]

True but that’s SAS

It would be like saying seal team 6 tactics are swat

[vernal root]

Hi guys l have a question: do you know how to complete coyote den with only the revolver? Like how to trigger the achievement?

[winter sparrow]

You yourself use revolver only, no equipment, idk if the cheese of your ai doing the work for you normally counts still

[vernal root]

I only told the ai to use the non lethal m4 and gas the enemy

I guess that's why it wasn't triggered?

[winter sparrow]

Oh are you on the rust belt map?

[vernal root]

Yeah with the tunnels and cartel

[winter sparrow]

Did you use any grenades yourself

[willow trail]

Well I mean ST6 does participate in a lot of door kicking, and HRT but definitely quite a bit diffrent that a SWAT team they’re trained for urban and rural warfare

[vernal root]

No l didn't

[winter sparrow]

I’m confused myself

It should have popped up

[vernal root]

Is there a way to unequip my primary?

[winter sparrow]

True
I think the UK equivalent to HRT is CTSFO
SWAT would be the AFO/SFOs on a raid or smth

[winter sparrow]

Not that I know of

But did you shoot at least once with the revolver

That might trigger it

[vernal root]

Yeah even killed somebody

[winter sparrow]

Oh

[frosty drift]

First time playing through the game

It does get easier as you play more but it still has a good level of difficulty

[harsh kindle]

Ohhh

[harsh kindle]

So i can command the AI teammates what to do and how to approach right?

I was thinking about leaving 1 or 2 behind so that the enemy cannot flank us or attack us from behind.

[desert island]

theres 2 red swats and 2 blue swats and u can split them into teams of 2

[harsh kindle]

Can i not split the 4 into 4 individuals?

I mean command them individually and not in a team of 2?

[frosty drift]

Yes

[frosty drift]

Maybe with mods idk but vanilla no

Best split you can do is 2-2-1

[harsh kindle]

I'm the 5th one right?

[frosty drift]

Yes

[harsh kindle]

So is it a good strat according to map ofc, to leave 2 behind so that they can watch your back?

Cuz i saw some gameplay where teams were attacked from the back

[verbal mountain]

I’m pretty sure you can give orders to individuals by looking at them before you give the order

[frosty drift]

Ok see this guy might be onto smth but as I far as I know no so don’t listen to me lol

[harsh kindle]

I try it for myself, when the game is out

[frosty drift]

I generally wouldn’t recommend it bc I rarely get flanked, but play how you want

[harsh kindle]

I'm good, as far as i can command them

[harsh kindle]

Fair.

AI teammates can die too right?

[frosty drift]

Everyone can die

[short crow]

Can i customize my ai teammates load out and outfits?

[frosty drift]

Yes!

I wouldn’t recommend though, an hour goes by instantly if you do

[stone bay]

my element is dripped out

[marble night]

What time can u pre download ron on console?

[frosty drift]

When it says you can download on the store

[harsh kindle]

So missions are time based? I know the bomb ones are

[marble night]

……

[harsh kindle]

In 10 hours for me

[marble night]

That’s when the game releases

[frosty drift]

There’s only like 3 time based missions

[frosty drift]

Ok so then pre download N/A

[marble night]

Alright

[harsh kindle]

No? It releases on 15th

[marble night]

Yea 2 days and 10 hours

[harsh kindle]

Bomb ones?

[harsh kindle]

Yeah so 10 hours to go before pre-loading begins

[frosty drift]

Yeah

[marble night]

Where do u find that info

[harsh kindle]

Click on the timer

[scenic mulch]

pre download for me it says july 13th 3AM im est

[harsh kindle]

Same

[marble night]

It doesn’t say a time

[vernal root]

Update l got it second try! Revolver only!

[marble night]

Just the date

[harsh kindle]

So do they kill hostages, if we are not careful?

[short crow]

💀

[short crow]

What timezone you are in?

[vernal root]

I basically ordered the squad more rarely and went straight to them destroying the doors with my foot!

[gleaming pier]

#🎨ron-screenshots-and-art message am i gonna get fired

[harsh kindle]

It will let you know on Auto download page

[marble night]

If it’s my time I can pre download at 8am for me

But that’s just a guess

[short crow]

After 10 hours

Its before 2 days of launch

[marble night]

Eh idk

[short crow]

So 8 am for you

[marble night]

Doesn’t matter won’t be able to play it anyway yet

[scenic mulch]

what time is it for u

[marble night]

Dw

[frosty drift]

Yes

[vocal iron]

Anyone else find the game somewhat scary?

[short crow]

Not really

[vocal iron]

For me it's like the mix of the disgustingness of it and like not knowing whats behind the corners. Gives me heebeejeebies

[short crow]

A bit disturbing

[verbal mountain]

Idk about scary but you’re always on edge bc you can be shot at anytime

[vocal iron]

Yeah like obviously it doesnt matter but also like i've just come off datajot, bro they like the roam. fucking scary

[restive ferry]

Me standing in a door for 30 seconds getting shot because the suspect AI is comically easy

[vocal iron]

Idk much scarier when ur using nonlethals

[restive ferry]

Fear is for girls

[tawny ivy]

I do I'm gonna get jump scared so easy playing this a ai gonna come around the corner and scare me happens in every game I play

[desert island]

this game is a suspense thriller

lots of quiet downtime bracing for the jump scare intense parts

[restive ferry]

When you have an extremely high IQ like I do, it’s hard to be caught off guard

[austere rain]

if you jumped from your ego to your IQ you would die of fall damage

[cerulean quest]

reddit ahh insult

[abstract laurel]

Literally

[restive ferry]

I just finished reading the dictionary, what is he yapping about?

[verbal mountain]

He is insulting us high IQ’d individuals

[austere rain]

Mr High IQ isnt smart enough to read?

[restive ferry]

Very shallow and pedantic if you ask me

[austere rain]

yall are being so puerile rn

[buoyant pecan]

Parts of it

Like that fucking post office where I can’t tell where most of the shots are coming from

[verbal mountain]

He has better things to do with his time, such as researching how to achieve faster than light travel

[vocal iron]

I'm sorry but like, this is such a reddit conversation

[buoyant pecan]

Elephant, Carriers of the Vine and Neon Tomb are probably the most outright scary missions

Valley, The Spider, and Hide & Seek are the most disturbing

[austere rain]

Im sorry sir but this is a very sophomoric statement, achieving faster than light travel is impossible

[restive ferry]

Maybe to someone….like you

[languid sapphire]

Relapse?

Relapse was the 'scariest' mission IMO

[buoyant pecan]

That’s another good pick
I just got distracted by how angry I get playing that mission lol

[languid sapphire]

I was shitting myself the first time I played it

[buoyant pecan]

Narcos has some disturbing moments
Specifically what the cartel did to the informant and what they left at his house

[austere rain]

Dont be asinine atleas i am modest

[languid sapphire]

It was so disturbing infact, Sony told VOID to cover up his balls 😢

[restive ferry]

When has modesty gotten anyone anywhere in life

[austere rain]

All of you "high iq individuals" are making me vexed

[buoyant pecan]

We can handle severe mutilation and torture, but nudity is where we draw the line! lol

[verbal mountain]

You simply cannot compare to us, do not be embarrassed though, few can

[restive ferry]

Perhaps a fellow genius can help me diagnose an issue I am having

[verbal mountain]

What is said issue?

[buoyant pecan]

I suffer from extremely sexy and smart and charismatic disease

[austere rain]

wouldnt someone as astute as yourself figure it out on his own?

[verbal mountain]

Even top scientists, such as myself, need others to verify their work

[restive ferry]

I am trying to figure out when I should switch back and forth between low head inside camping and high head inside camping. And when is it appropriate to windshield wipe into a half guard or perhaps even side control

[restive ferry]

A man who relies only upon himself will drive himself into madness

[buoyant pecan]

I rely upon this muhfuckin glock

[restive ferry]

A reliable solution in most situations but not all

[buoyant pecan]

If you live by the AA12 with incendiary rounds, you will die by the AA12 with incendiary rounds

Sun Tzu said that

[verbal mountain]

I don’t wanna die by the AA12 with incendiary rounds

[austere rain]

i have studied the ancient art of jiu jutsu myself and i can say Don’t rush the windshield wipe if you do it without flattening them first, it gives up space. The switch from low to high head should happen intentionally, not because you're losing position.
Pay attention to their elbow-knee connection if it’s broken, windshield wiping is greenlit.

[buoyant pecan]

I am a philosopher

None of that Socrates or Plato slop I got the true profound knowledge

[restive ferry]

Fascinating answer. I applaud you for your insight and response. I will study this answer and give you results back once they have been tested

[verbal mountain]

I know exactly what you guys are talking about but may I ask that you simplify it for these other low iq individuals

[restive ferry]

Smesh

[austere rain]

Such empathy

[restive ferry]

Disclash, due to your lengthy knowledge perhaps you have an answer for why my front triangle submission rate isn’t at 100%. What am I missing

[verbal mountain]

What is smesh

[restive ferry]

Get on top of opponent

SMESH

[buoyant pecan]

TOC to entry team, suspects are throwing bowling balls at civilians

[stone bay]

entry team to TOC, suspects are actually really chill when you get to know them

[copper current]

@iron charm js watching for now im bored 😭

[austere rain]

Ah yes, the triangle choke, perhaps one of the most technically difficult submissions to perfect depending on experience and skill, there are several reasons why it isnt 100% submission rate, because you did not provide specific detail i will list some common mistakes done when performing the submission so you know what to avoid to get those percentages up

• Not controlling posture and letting opponet sit up, killing the choke
• poor leg positioning like your knee isnt pointing up or your foot is to low on their back
• Wrong leg over, putting leg over the wrong shoulder gives them space or lets them stack
• Forgetting to adjust angle, staying square in front of them weakens the choke
• Locking triangle too early, some people rush to lock triangle before fully adjusting
• Not controlling arm, the arm you trap must be across the neck, not on the outside
• no squeeze or hip lift, just locking your legs isnt enough, you must squeeze knees together and lift your hips for real choke pressure
• Weak head control, if you dont keep pulling their head down, they can escape or posture out
  Treat this as a sort of process of elimination that you're doing none of these, but practice makes perfect, im sure a highly intelligent individual like yourself can comprehend this and choke out anybody 100% of the time in the future

[buoyant pecan]

I ain’t reading all that

[restive ferry]

My solution is not in any of the answers

[austere rain]

well those listed are the ones i notice the most, perhaps if you provide further specifications i can tailor my soloution methods more to your situation

but i can only do so much through the internet, it is best to seek advice from fellow practicioners at whatever place you train at

[restive ferry]

I thought you were a fellow practitioner? I of course am doing all of the basic requirements of a front triangle, I am looking for the minor details in which will help me submit world class opponents.

[earnest shell]

Ready or Not hit 80% in total reviews

[austere rain]

i am a BJJ practicioner but the best advice you can get is person to person not through discord

[verbal mountain]

What was it before the review bomb?

[earnest shell]

I think around 89-90%

[austere rain]

to submit world class opponets you must be world class yourself then

[restive ferry]

What is your belt rank

[austere rain]

brown on my 2nd stripe

[restive ferry]

My apologies I thought I was talking with a master of the sport

[austere rain]

i have submitted black blts

[restive ferry]

With what submissions

[austere rain]

i am master class, i even submitted mighty mouse one time with a reverse triangle

a few months ago i submitted jon jones with a flying armbar

[restive ferry]

Explain the process of setting up a flying armbar

[austere rain]

i have been explaining to you my prowess, perhaps you should as you claim to be master class

[restive ferry]

I have plenty of instructionals online

[austere rain]

good for you

[restive ferry]

Thank you

[austere rain]

your name looks familiar btw

[verbal mountain]

You start flapping your arms very fast to fly and then you bar the opponents

[restive ferry]

Look me up. Any brown belt would know of me

[austere rain]

im more focused on myself

[austere rain]

why would a world class jiu jutsu and mma trainer need advice on discord of all places on a triangle choke?

[oak wedge]

Yo when does the RONSOLE release drop, like time wise I already know it’s the 15th

[austere rain]

i am honored

[restive ferry]

You failed

[austere rain]

[restive ferry]

And by failed, I mean you failed at losing

[wet spade]

Just found you, you win lol

[austere rain]

so did i fail?

[restive ferry]

Congratulations

[blazing sandal]

What just happened

[austere rain]

so i passed!

or is this some gordon ramsay stuff

[wet spade]

👍

Its opposite day

[restive ferry]

Congratulations at being one of the worst students I’ve ever tested

[austere rain]

oh

[blazing sandal]

Wow harsh crowd

[restive ferry]

And one of the BEST professors I’ve tested

[austere rain]

awesome!

truly a honor

[wet spade]

Huh

[restive ferry]

Because If this was a bad at Jiu jitsu test you passed with flying colors

[austere rain]

aww man, ill practice harder!

[stone bay]

void really cooked when they made civilians burst through doors. i mouse1 every time

[wet spade]

Congrats on your achievements though👍

[restive ferry]

And by bad, I mean, bad at losing Jiu jitsu. Congratulations on your belt

[wet spade]

Whaaat they can do that?

[stone bay]

am i the only one who has experienced it??

[austere rain]

i dont know whether to shake your hand or leave crying

[restive ferry]

I would leave crying

[wet spade]

Me neither, I hope the best for you

[wet spade]

In happiness right

[austere rain]

in joy because of my accomplishment?

[restive ferry]

No because you failed the test. What is so hard to understand about this

[austere rain]

oh i get it, failed the worst at jiu jutsu test?

[stone bay]

my absolute son

[desert island]

its always bad when u see a door open but no one actually goes thru it so u just wait

[stone bay]

one day it'll be hash brown cat

and he will catch 30 rounds of pure nato

[desert island]

he can take it

[azure saffron]

How long until ready or not comes out on ps5

[covert aurora]

3days on digital if yiur looking for physical auguest 8th

(Disregard here)

[stone bay]

i ate it. sorry

[lament hill]

I think it comes out for me tomorrow

[azure saffron]

Lucky

[ashen wolf]

Hi guys! Does anyone know if Ready or No will run at 60 FPS on Xbox Series S?

[zenith estuary]

Series S

Probably at a low resolution. But take with a grain of salt as I genuinely have no idea.

[ashen wolf]

Thanks for the reply, I'll only know when it's released.

[lament hill]

I mean I already got the PC version I just got it on console to support VOID and so my buddies on console can gameshare off me and we can play together

[manic prism]

2 more days!!

[zenith estuary]

Hell yeah babyyyyyy

[covert aurora]

Same planning to buy a physical copy myself

[viscid arch]

I pray to god it can run just as smooth as Series X and PS5

[stone bay]

Guys, is it AP or JHP for Carriers of the Vine?

They don't appear armored but idk

[austere rain]

JHP since suspects dont where armor, but i would rock AP regardless it makes pretty much no diff

[stone bay]

I could swear I saw that they run armor

Even though obviously they don't appear to

[ashen wolf]

I hope it runs well, because the game engine is unreal 4

[stable kernel]

The game is no longer ue4

[slim fern]

It hasn’t been running ue4 for a while now

[stone bay]

i still use AP because i think theyre geeked on something

[slim fern]

First dlc update transitioned to UE5.3.2

[ashen wolf]

I had seen it on the game wiki and it was there unreal 4, it must be old then

Only when the game is released will we know, unfortunately, they could say

[near tide]

is it just me or is leviathan really unoptimised

[slim fern]

The content creators who got to try it early said it ran smooth, plus the game’s size has been reduced to about 38gb

[slim fern]

Praise be, I’m not the only one

Especially when I turn on the helmet cams too

[covert aurora]

Game is already out on pc coming to console soon. Game runs on UE5

[near tide]

i dont get why they always talk about making a new dlc without talking about fixing the old one

[zenith estuary]

Cross-version would be kinda dumb. Realistically console would be running the same Engine (UE5).

[slim fern]

There’s always a chance they randomly fix it down the road but post a bug report anyhow

I think it could be a matter of an optimization pass

[near tide]

yeah its not like they even tried either if you go in free cam youll see like 4k textures on things you'd never see

[slim fern]

May want to check those settings as well if it’s showing up uncompressed

Or maybe if it was a mod or something like that

[near tide]

it might be view distance

but it lags even inside?

[slim fern]

I’d still have problems regarding the lower deck, I get framedrops often when navigating it

[near tide]

yeah fr

[slim fern]

And the AI gets clunky at the stairwell to the worker bed rooms

[near tide]

yeah fr i also just hate how instead of adding more to the base game their planning 2 more dlcs

[slim fern]

Mind you, they’re planning to release the next dlc in 2026

[manic prism]

Have they announced how much space this will take up on console?

[near tide]

just make a new game atp

[slim fern]

Should be like 38 gb

[near tide]

probably more their remastering a few maps

[slim fern]

If it’s gonna be that longer, it better be more than 3 levels

At least I hope

[near tide]

fr can we actually leave early access this time

[slim fern]

🤷‍♂️

[wraith gale]

its 22gb on xbox

[near tide]

how?

are they finally gonna optimize

[slim fern]

They really locked tf in

[wraith gale]

its well optimized ig idk

[wraith gale]

look at the photo huntr posted

[slim fern]

Almost half of the game reduced in optimizing

[near tide]

i wonder if their gonna make judge be able to handle pistol recoil

[near tide]

where?

[wraith gale]

its in general i think, i can find the link rq

[wraith gale]

the game is 38gb on what i think is steam, and console games seem to take less GBs than PC #💬general-discussion message

[near tide]

well they are remaking and adding new maps too

[wraith gale]

xbox also showed 22gb when people pre downloaded

[lament hill]

consoles are typically better optimized than PC

[humble mauve]

1/2 sets of hardware per console is way simpler to optimize

still difficult as some.. recent releases... have shown

[lament hill]

mindseye?

[stone bay]

big scary dog

Cool cool, thanks everybody. My dad was curious how much space it gonna take up cuz he hasn't gotten a bigger ssd yet haha

[harsh kindle]

Those DLCs include one mission each?

[desert island]

3

[harsh kindle]

3 missions per DLC?

[desert island]

Home Invasion: Dorms, Narcos, Lawmaker
Dark Waters: Mirage at Sea, Leviathan, 3 Letter Triad

[main iron]

wait so

the update just never came out?

[desert island]

next update is july 15th

adding 2 more maps

[harsh kindle]

How big is each mission of the base game?

Are the maps unique?

[desert island]

theres small and big raids

i wuld say they all r different

[harsh kindle]

Thanks man

[haughty oriole]

oh man this game on console is gonna make all the mw19 players that loved the home invasions go on ecstasy

I can already imagine the reactions 😂

then they realize that this game shoots hard

[vale mulch]

From how I remember UE5 games on series S it would likely be like 30fps 1080p med/low pc settings

From the PS5 footage I couldn’t notice upscaling but I bet even series x/ ps5 would be 1440p upscale to 4k. 60fps med/high settings best case. Could be wrong.

[ashen saddle]

are they gonna keep the replay feature and add it with the console release?

[fervent hinge]

They cooked with that mission
Very short but good

[haughty oriole]

I still remember doing the whole mission with 1 shot per bad guy and not getting hit. Intense asf.

6 years ago btw. 😳

[fervent hinge]

Also is the game going to be available to download in 3 hours?

[haughty oriole]

Yeah i was just about to ask that

I think so, how big is the game on pc?

[fervent hinge]

The multilayer was pretty good too
Just the sawed off shotgun meta was annoying

I don't play on PC but they say it's 60 gigs
Interesting how console is 23 gigs only

[haughty oriole]

Where does it say it's 23gb?

[prisma reef]

Are they only removing dismemberment post mortem or will bullets just go into the ground instead of hitting the person?

[fervent hinge]

I just googled it
Idk

[haughty oriole]

Nah only after death. You can still dismember when alive

[prisma reef]

No I’m asking if we’re going to be able to shoot them while dead too or not

[haughty oriole]

oh well no effects, you would just be wasting bullets

[prisma reef]

Rlly bro 💔

[haughty oriole]

I know it sucks

[scenic mulch]

dawg js wants to disintegrate the dead body ? 😭😭

[prisma reef]

Wait I wanna make sure who can I @

Nah I js wanna shoot it while it’s down

[haughty oriole]

Of the void team? No one

[pearl zinc]

i finally got a pc that can run RoN

[scenic mulch]

😭

[prisma reef]

O ok

[fervent hinge]

Is it gonna be just like your pfp

[prisma reef]

Wait how u get PlayStation role

[pearl zinc]

idk, mcafee is slowing it down alot, it has a 4050 though

[haughty oriole]

it's details.

[scenic mulch]

channels n roles

[fervent hinge]

#role-selection

[prisma reef]

Where

[scenic mulch]

me personally im not going around shooting dead bodies so it rly doesn’t bother me

[prisma reef]

There’s nothing there for PlayStation

[haughty oriole]

it does bother quite a lot of people but I'm not letting this stop me from playing the game

[pearl zinc]

u gotta check if their dead

[fervent hinge]

I just realised that yeah

[prisma reef]

Found it

[prime pasture]

where?

[haughty oriole]

Tlou 2 and rdr2 gore are the best ones I've ever seen in a videogame tbh, and I don't remember people being upset about them. But it's OK it's not that big of deal after all

[scenic mulch]

scroll to top above welcome

n click channels n roles

[prisma reef]

All the way at the top

[wraith gale]

talking about the censorship?

[haughty oriole]

yeah Rico mentioned it

[prime pasture]

ah thanks

[fervent hinge]

Dead island 2 heh

[wraith gale]

yeah rdr2 and tlou2 have way more money, and say in that sort of stuff (i.e what can and cant be in the game). those games also arnet focused on real life policing.

[haughty oriole]

it's still humans getting butchered

it doesn't matter what the game is about, gore is gore

[fervent hinge]

Do zombies count

[haughty oriole]

The visual effects remain just as brutal. Also rdr2 ain't that fantasy set. Also tlou 2, zombies apart you got real humans

[wraith gale]

not rlly

[wraith gale]

it does matter. which one impacts you more, a western citizen getting killed, or a modern civilian who represents the people you see everyday getting killed.

[haughty oriole]

Both suck, and at the end of the day it's a videogame after all. I am a grown ass I don't get bothered over pixels being reduced to atom

[wraith gale]

your last point is exactly why im confused people are upset about the censorship lol, its just pixels

[humble mauve]

also both of those games have different regional releases that are censored

[wraith gale]

isnt the game banned in africa or australia? one of the A continents.

[humble mauve]

which game

[wraith gale]

ron

[humble mauve]

uh it was temp restricted in Australia to get rated

[haughty oriole]

and yeah when a team ain't free to depict whatever they want just sucks. Censorship is the death of creativity and art. Just my opinion 🤷

[humble mauve]

but it was only like a week

[cerulean quest]

based

[wraith gale]

reddit lied to me yet again🥀

[trail radish]

Imma be real, I did not know there were swat characters with balaclavas in the game until like yesterday

[humble mauve]

yeah it was a big freak out in the moment because you couldn't buy it in australia

[astral pawn]

censorship sucks but some people are so unhinged and just spreading hate

[humble mauve]

but it was nothing

[haughty oriole]

Fucking ACTMAN W

[astral pawn]

I only found out that you could do canted sight and lean in a sharper angle by holding ALT + wasd lol

I also have 50 hours in the game too

[trail radish]

The characters must have been added recently, since I dont remember those being added with 1.0 or home invasion

[haughty oriole]

it's not based it's just common sense. Whenever I watched what I did to the bodies of either rdr2 or tlou 2 I greatly admired it, not the GORE, but the work that the developers put into doing what they have done. It's details, details are amazing and most people don't miss Ron deadbodies dismemberment because "Oh no I can't be a perv" it's because watching people's work to depict something as gritty as death. If it's detailed I like the game more, it's not liking gore which is weird but again it's details of the work done by the devs.

[pearl zinc]

oh my god the graphics are so good

never ntoiced details bc my old computer could only run it on low graphics

[astral pawn]

[desert island]

ngl 5 player teams seems overkill for some maps

1 guy going morgue, 1 guy going xray, 1 guy going top floor, and theres still 2 more guys to take pediatrics and entrance

[rugged badge]

hi, i wanna get RoN but ive seen the review bombing and dont know if its still worth atp

what do u guys think?? thanks

[dire horizon]

Dewwit

[rugged badge]

rodger that

[desert island]

pc players didnt like censoring for console players
and thought that leaving a bad review would get them to cancel console release

nothing about the game being bad

[proper osprey]

Get it, the review bombing is just edge lord's

[rugged badge]

im not too bothered tbh i kinda jus want somth to play

alr tysm guys

[pearl zinc]

Get it

[desert island]

i would say its more of NIMBYism than edgelording

they already have the game and dont want stuff removed just for other people who dont have the game yet

[pearl zinc]

What are y’all’s settings for graphics? Mine on epic but it looks blurry and not like the graphics in those yt videos

[desert island]

i only have 2060 so i do everything on low

[haughty oriole]

cause most of yt videos are highly edited,

[desert island]

still runs at 120 fps

[haughty oriole]

or they may have mods on

[desert island]

if i put epic viewmodel, max viewdistance, epic effects

but some maps will drop to 60-70 fps

so i keep it at lowest

[haughty oriole]

that's not even that bad

[desert island]

yeah for a 2060

[haughty oriole]

it's not 30 that would have been 🙏😭

[twin musk]

apparently theres no keyboard support for consoles

but for PC owners, you can use controllers

who tf signed this

[agile ermine]

In an upcoming DLC or whatever, can we please get an L85A2 for us Brits to feel good about ourselves??? 🥺

[pearl zinc]

ah

[pearl zinc]

they need to add SAS stuff 🙏

does anyone know how to disable the zoom feature in replay mode

Does the lobby host have to own the dlc to run dlc maps or just someone in the lobby? And are lobbies hosted on servers or locally

[regal stratus]

its stopping me from reducing the camera movement speed

[agile ermine]

SAS? They use most the same shit as everyone besides weaponry

[ruby umbra]

I have the dlc and want to play with friends that don't, but I probably have the worst Internet

[pearl zinc]

yea but i need the uniform, which the game dosnt have

[agile ermine]

Oakley, Rush, Mechanix, or Goretex

A few other things too but I Cba to type out everything

I still laugh at the fact they saw the Benelli M4 being used by US troops, got so jealous, they put in an emergency request to get a load of them the next day lol

[desert island]

host

[agile ermine]

I’m sure there’s MTP mods for uniforms

[pearl zinc]

oh ok

ive been playing the game with no mods ever since i downlaoded lmao

[agile ermine]

Idk, I’m on ps5, you’d have to look into it lad, but if you need help getting accurate kinda rigs lmk

[ruby umbra]

How dependent is the hosts wifi on the amount of lag?

[uncut lily]

so whats stopping the devs from making the censorship platform only btw

not too caught up on the news

or like, if a console player is in your game it will be censored

maybe it'd result in a slightly larger file size for pc players but it is already 60gb so it is already quite high, an extra gigabyte here or there isnt actually affecting anyone that has the specs for this game already

[desert island]

not sure

[covert aurora]

As someone from outside of the UK i would love this.

[agile ermine]

Let’s hope Void see this

[covert aurora]

For crossplay reason builds need to be close to the same

[uncut lily]

but like, why? whats stopping gore and whatnot from being clientside? should it not be equivalent to having different graphical settings?

[agile ermine]

It’s not even censored that bad man

[scenic mulch]

they acting like the enemies despawn, they dont bleed, they dont get wounds

[covert aurora]

First parties.

[uncut lily]

i could go into a whole thing about how its representative of a larger issue but thats already all said and done and the devs are very clearly set in stone on their decision, i'm just wondering why it works like this on the technical side of things

[agile ermine]

Bro, if I worked for Void, I’d rather censor minute details than have some Karen’s whining because little Timmy is looking at trafficked naked women on the living room TV on a console

[covert aurora]

Idk the whole techincal side.

[scenic mulch]

idk y they complain “oh no i cant see naked starved women, naked old man, and cant go around dismembering dead bodies”

[agile ermine]

The only thing i understand them on is the predator mission, I want a real reason to hate that POS

[scenic mulch]

michael the streamer?

[agile ermine]

Not too sure, I just heard there was a predator

[scenic mulch]

ye i think its the streamer

[agile ermine]

I’m on console I won’t know til Tuesday

[scenic mulch]

same i js been watching hella vids

[agile ermine]

I’m Deadass gonna run G36C and glock trying to rp British Armed Response Forces

[scenic mulch]

am running a canadian hrt/rcmp

[agile ermine]

You on ps5?

[scenic mulch]

ye

[agile ermine]

Wanna play together on launch?

[scenic mulch]

ye sure its launching at 3am for me tho so am prob gonna be sleeping

[agile ermine]

Add Valencify

[scenic mulch]

igh

[uncut lily]

so its an issue with execs, which makes sense, but i feel like theres a discussion here that the devs just haven't had with them. it seems somewhat outlandish to me that the game wouldnt be publishable on the xbox platform just because they can play with people on an otherwise entirely unconnected version with entirely seperate files?

[covert aurora]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[uncut lily]

if the execs have said that its not possible then johnny silverhand keeps getting proven right again and again 😭 tho i get that void cant do anything about it

[covert aurora]

yeah 😦

[desert island]

most expensive game ever made is able to get it to work

and that same game flopped on release

vs indie game

and the devs said they really wanted a console release with minimal changes so if they couldve done it they wouldve

[uncut lily]

i cant tell if youre agreeing with me or not

and im not sure which game youre referring to

[desert island]

im just saying if void had 100x the budget to equal cyberpunk they may have been able to push a filter and unfiltered button for RoN

i duno wat they wuld even do with 400 million dollars

[uncut lily]

i just wonder if its really that difficult though

i mean if the devs come out and say that its out of the budget or whatever im not gonna tell them theyre lying because i really have zero clue but as far as i know they havent really made any kind of statement like that

[desert island]

yeah seems like on PC if u do any mods if u just uncheck serverside check sum it just works

u can have the most graphic mods ever and no other player would see it

i dont see why they cant do like a console release and then release a PC only free DLC for adding back censored content

and have a box checked to be able to play with DLC owners

but hey if they say they truly cant do it and would rather be review bombed then watevr

i just dont wana see a SURPRISE we listened to the fans and brought it back haha

[ruby umbra]

That is actually a very good suggestion

Especially since a lot of games have the ability to enable or disable crossplay anyways

[uncut lily]

i just keep thinking back to l4d2's censored release in australia, which worked fine when i was playing with people in the US as far as i can recall

[dim lion]

they need to update the achievements

[fathom idol]

Corpo scum

I wanna flatline just thinking about them

[heavy prairie]

Ronsole is officially 2 days away

[fathom idol]

Prem

[uncut lily]

instead you should discover what it takes to become a legend and grab your iron and mobilise

[fathom idol]

I don’t know choom maybe I should

Anyway I gotta delta cya

[merry crest]

Are any traps on relapse ´cause I went to check a bathroom at the east wing and I got wiped out?

[covert aurora]

not usually no, might want to check if you have a mod

sometimes certain mods that increase difficulty may add in things to certain maps

[merry crest]

And also lorewise why would it make sense for a terrorist group to boobytrap some small doors to bath-and storage rooms (at my second attempt I got wiped out in radiology trying to check a small room)

[covert aurora]

yeah like i said normally that map doesn't have traps

[merry crest]

No especially I got mods but they’re on easy and also I got one which removes the traps on most maps

[covert aurora]

weird...

[merry crest]

But it was also only two attempts at the third one (in which I mirrored every door) there were no traps….

[covert aurora]

yeah not sure.

[merry crest]

Well yeah whatever got an S Rank at Relapse so now only Port is missing,then I‘ve finished the game

[cedar mulch]

Rebels' Rejects has truly returned to fast food restaurants.

[toxic moon]

Do all npcs in this game have nvg built in?

I was playing neon tomb, and most of the time I couldn't see anything, but the npc could see me and shot me in the head from 10 meters away

[covert aurora]

very nice! keep it!

[merry crest]

Thanks

[raven thunder]

how many days till censorship? date and time preferred

[cedar mulch]

I don't think fast food restaurants are purely radical gunmen. I think they are more like gang warfare.

There are too many suspects.

[covert aurora]

your welcome!

[cedar mulch]

If VOID can really create a multi-party battle, rather than just SWAT against suspects.

[raven thunder]

?

couple of days maybe?

[harsh kindle]

Shouldn't it be available to pre-load now?

On ps5?

[raven thunder]

is that a genuine question or a follow up to mine

[covert aurora]

the 15th not sure the time

[versed sky]

It’s available on ps5

[harsh kindle]

Yeah, downloading

[prime pasture]

yall cant play it till the 15th

[covert aurora]

welcome on in cadets! 🙂

[orchid comet]

Yall excited?

Because I am!!!!

[cedar mulch]

It would be great if VOID could develop a team controlled entirely by AI on a specific map. Port is more suitable for ten SWAT officers to carry out operations.

[versed sky]

What’s the mission pass?

[harsh kindle]

Pre-loaded

Only 21 GB nice

[raven thunder]

thanks g 🤝

[covert aurora]

np

[raven thunder]

gotta lock in

im on elephant gotta finish the rest, any of the dlc missions gettin censored?

[versed sky]

They shouldn’t be I don’t think

[covert aurora]

mainly narcos.

[versed sky]

I haven’t got the dlc on pc so I can’t tell what would be or wouldn’t

[covert aurora]

rest are fine

#announcements @versed sky

[cedar mulch]

DLC3

[covert aurora]

4th img

[cedar mulch]

I hope they add some extra details to the Narcos map.

[covert aurora]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

it should be fine as is. but extra details would be kool

[versed sky]

Why is kbm not allowed on console?

[covert aurora]

uh... that i don't know.

[dense ocean]

Is there an option for controller to lean on hold?

For instance, if I press the left stick it would be leaning towards the left but when I lift it would restore position

[vague ingot]

So does RONSole release at different times for different regions

[versed sky]

No

[vague ingot]

Ahh ok I swear I saw some like post on like different time zones release dates

[vale token]

3 days till console release

[desert island]

y does p509 have a slow swap speed

[versed sky]

Which DLC is best to do first?

[prisma reef]

It’s 2 days

[vale token]

Yeah but it’s 3:00AM so basically 3 fr

[prisma reef]

But July 15th is in 2 days

[rich cobalt]

gore is still going to be in the game.

[vale token]

Yeah but 3 hours ago it would’ve been 2 days

[prisma reef]

Yea

[vale token]

It’s just like desecrating bodies right

[prisma reef]

Now it’s like 1 and 23 hours

[uncut lily]

yeah but body dismemberment and the nudity and shit

[vale token]

That’s going

[vale token]

I personally don’t care if I see ghillie willie

[rich cobalt]

faces can still be blown off and arms/legs can be torn from a buckshot or slug.

[versed sky]

Twisted Nerve with no NVG

[prisma reef]

We have a container full of women…

[brave berry]

Woah

[uncut lily]

the discord bot censoring anything to do with the sensitive subject matter in the game is really funny

[rich cobalt]

okay, so topics about michael and mindjot are censored here.

[prisma reef]

If one of my bots die in a mission but then I die do they still die or do they get rebooted

[versed sky]

I hope dlc 3 is on a military base or something

[uncut lily]

i dont really care to discuss my personal issues with the censorship i just find it very strange that the devs refuse to find any sort of alternative when it seems so easy

[frail socket]

The only people complaining are just the gooners

[versed sky]

Pc players can mod all the stuff back

[rich cobalt]

so,
here's all that they're doing that people are crying about.
girard's dingaling will be hidden a little better (woah! shocking! the devs are totally shills for hiding an old guy's pp!)
trafficking victims in port hokan will now have underwear.
the cartel victim who has his dingaling cut off will now have underwear.
the little girl in the park homes will now be static instead of spazzing out from drugs.
and to save some people's computers, dismemberment can no longer happen to a corpse. you can still blow off people's faces and arms when they're alive, just.. not when they're on the floor and a goner.

[uncut lily]

thats not an alternative because it eliminates crossplay and also creates parity issues with having to get everyone to install all the mods and constantly update them and shit, modding is inconveneient

[rich cobalt]

this isn't really a problem for me, because SWAT4 also had clothed victims.

[uncut lily]

im fully aware of what changes are being made

[rich cobalt]

specifically, in the fairfax home mission.

both (potentially SA'd victims) still have their clothes in SWAT4.

that being an unknown civilian with a mask on her face, and the kidnapped college student.

[versed sky]

Is there any footage of Rontroller?

[rich cobalt]

the game has native gamepad support.

[uncut lily]

yeah rontroller is on pc already

[rich cobalt]

you are able to do voice commands by holding right bumper, and are able to switch between equipment holding left bumper.

stuff like nvgs, weapon light/laser, and low ready are utilized on the dpad.

[versed sky]

I’m hoping kbm gets added to ronsole in the future

[rich cobalt]

holding either bumpers gives you different options for the dpad too.

like helm cams and whatnot.

the only thing controller can't do is switching voip and doing text chat, but if you're on a steam deck, or are playing through PC with a controller on a steam client, i'm sure you're able to map that to whatever you wish.

i'm on a steam deck.

also, you can't freelook on controller.

thank god for backbuttons.

i have my lower backbuttons for VOIP and freelook, while my upper backbuttons are used as a quick way to use low ready and my weapon light.

[versed sky]

Rontroller will 100% take time to get used to

[rich cobalt]

it was fairly easy to get into.
just, train yourself in a lot of tracking because oh man.

[uncut lily]

wait why play ready or not on console if u already have it on pc

[rich cobalt]

suspects like to ice skate.

[uncut lily]

also does ron have gyro

[rich cobalt]

you can enable it for steam deck.

[versed sky]

Wasn’t my account on pc

[rich cobalt]

but i think they should.

[uncut lily]

finally split screen ready or not would be unbelievably goated im coming to realise

[rich cobalt]

what would be a good idea is more bodycam options for spectating..

[versed sky]

It’s in the game but you can only see 1 persons screen

[rich cobalt]

i'd love to add an axon body cam on the stab vest (since it's literally modeled off a patrol officer's point blank load bearing vest that officers wear now)

[uncut lily]

my brother in christ i know what youre saying but that is not split screen

[rich cobalt]

split screen = multiple players playing on one screen, divided in either half or in quarters

think call of duty or halo splitscreen. that's splitscreen if that simplifies it for you.

[uncut lily]

or eighths 😭

[rich cobalt]

sigh..

[uncut lily]

i love ridiculous amounts of split screen players its very funny

[stiff copper]

RON IS ON CONSOLE RIGHT NOW

[uncut lily]

oh wait theres already a nucleus coop script for splitscreen

[versed sky]

Been able to pre install for an hour

[stiff copper]

Me too

[versed sky]

Everybody has

[stiff copper]

IM SOOOO EXCITED ON PS5

[uncut lily]

i cant attach anything here so ill put it in #🎨ron-screenshots-and-art

[frail socket]

Did yall get the deluxe or normal ?

[versed sky]

Deluxe since it’s worth it

[stiff copper]

Normal

I'm about the buy the deluxe add on with it

[frail socket]

I’m thinking about getting the deluxe

[versed sky]

Get it

You get 3 dlc with deluxe

[frail socket]

Bet

[versed sky]

What add on?

[stiff copper]

I think u can buy the dlc and stuff

[versed sky]

You can buy the dlc separately

Deluxe saves money

[stiff copper]

Then f that bro im buying everything

[brave berry]

I still got till Monday 🫩

[versed sky]

There is 3 dlc for RoN but 2 will be in store

[versed sky]

They meant pre loading

[stiff copper]

Damn bro I feel you 😔

[brave berry]

I can’t even do that

[versed sky]

What are you playing on?

[brave berry]

I slept all day today to pass the time

[stiff copper]

Mee too

[brave berry]

Ps5

[versed sky]

You can pre install it

[brave berry]

It just lets me choose if I wanna let it install or not

[versed sky]

Install it since when it releases you can play it instantly

[brave berry]

Not actually install the game

I’ll check tmmr it’s kinda late

[versed sky]

It’s 20.10gb

[brave berry]

WHAAAAAT

[versed sky]

I was expecting more

[brave berry]

I was told it was 60

[stiff copper]

Nah bro its 20k gb

[brave berry]

Dude have you guys seen mk1

It was like 120gb

[versed sky]

I think the largest game I have had installed is cod Cold War for ps5

[brave berry]

COD is always hella gb
