On S

[proper parcel]

Ides of March sucked bc my friend was an idiot, called out bomb and this guy still kicks the door open

[spark shuttle]

Thanks g

[uncut widget]

He is CoD speed movement demon, let him cook

[limber ledge]

Just use c2 on every door

[uncut widget]

Because of the stress, suspects might take civilians as hostages, so better not

[willow flax]

Why is hit reg so bad

[limber ledge]

Good more reasons to punch their tickets

[sharp wharf]

any tips for valley of dolls S rank

[uncut widget]

Once I had situation like this and I shot immediately when suspect has taken civilians, but I shot right at civilian’s head. Fastest gunslinger, but not accurate one😭

[limber ledge]

I shot through a civie into a suspect one time

[spark shuttle]

Thank u so much I love you

[limber ledge]

The civ survived though

[limber ledge]

I do also have this issue where I keep blowing off the civilian’s hands

[uncut widget]

Not for long

[spark shuttle]

I'm on the road to S rank every mission

[limber ledge]

Still take down the suspect but not without taking a few digits from the civilian

[spark shuttle]

Once I get to valley of the dolls I need help 😭

Or is it easy

[limber ledge]

Also they need to fix the gas it was so fun to run gas before now it’s useless

[spark shuttle]

Wdym gas

[uncut widget]

Easy, just avoid battling around the windows

[limber ledge]

Gas grenades

[spark shuttle]

Ah

[limber ledge]

Not like mustard gas or anything cool like that

[spark shuttle]

No I know

[limber ledge]

White phosphorus update when?

[spark shuttle]

I thought ur talking about the gas station map

[sour dirge]

are you playing on hard

[spark shuttle]

Standard but ima try hard after I s rank all the maps including dlcs

[limber ledge]

I’m not gonna try hard mode until they change it sounds like a chore in its current state

[sour dirge]

when you s rank valley of the dolls, me and my friend found it easiest to go bottom to top then clear outside and basement

[uncut widget]

Standard is gonna suck your blood before you even start hard one

[sour dirge]

learn all the spawns and clear those first

[limber ledge]

I figure the increased volume and coordination would’ve been enough why do they have aimbot again

[sour dirge]

precisely

[spark shuttle]

Alr thanks

[uncut widget]

3 letter triad was the longest for S rank before update for me. Even “Sleeper Agent” achievement hasn’t taken so many tries

[limber ledge]

That mission is dope

I like that there’s an opportunity for longer range engagements at the start

[uncut widget]

I like this mission cause there is just one civilian or few, so I don’t care if they will be taken as hostages

[limber ledge]

Yeah only one civ I think

[uncut widget]

Scientist

[limber ledge]

And he’s already cuffed

[uncut widget]

Like on Leviathan

[vocal wing]

@limber ledge if only variable sights actually had multiple zoom levels

[spark shuttle]

Can I use beanbag shotgun

[limber ledge]

Real

[uncut widget]

You have to

[spark shuttle]

From afar

[limber ledge]

I would love to use the LPVO

[uncut widget]

Launcher?

[limber ledge]

That’s the 12x isn’t it

[plucky cliff]

Huh 😭

[uncut widget]

What is LPVO?

Isn’t it launcher?

[plucky cliff]

Low powered variable optic

Its the 12x thingy

[limber ledge]

Its the scope with a red dot on top

[uncut widget]

Aaaaa, thought because there is L in there

[limber ledge]

I used it to tap a hostage taker on lawmaker one time

That’s about the only use I had for it lol

[plucky cliff]

[spark shuttle]

Question does having 2 officers that have negotiator trait make it 2x more likely than if u had one?

[limber ledge]

I want a 417 or m110 😔

[plucky cliff]

Doesnt stack

[spark shuttle]

Good to know

[limber ledge]

If you split your team up you could put one on either team I guess

[spark shuttle]

Ight I might ask u guys to help me out on later missions maybe if yall are down to do it

I just want the Hawaiian shirt from the valley of the dolls mostly

[tired wraith]

Why does my game always crash in crossplay?

[uncut widget]

Broke my armor and I'm about to die

[old pivot]

Genuinely headcanon that the reason Thank You, Come Again went so absurdly haywire before you showed up is because Zion, specifically, went apeshit, being the one who executed Mudasir. Would certainly explain why the other two are remarkably surrender-prone and why Crystal is very clearly and specifically left alive

[mental anchor]

is there any good ready or not mods anymroe

none of them work

[viral knot]

How dont you have a role

[mental anchor]

wdym

[viral knot]

you have no roles

[ionic gale]

It takes some time for the roles to kick in

[viral knot]

Ok

[ionic gale]

Scratch that, he’s two days into the server. I’m confused as well.

[viral knot]

How do you even check that

[zenith sinew]

On your server profile it should have your discord creation date and when you joined the server.

[viral knot]

Oh found it ok

[hidden rapids]

what multitool is used in RoN when pick locking?

[vital geode]

RoN keeps crashing everytime i open it, havent played since last update but i have wiped all my old mods already

[hidden rapids]

#💻tech-support

[vital geode]

didnt even see the channel xd

[fluid bramble]

What do you do if you have a suspect that is down on their knees but no one can interact with them?

Looking for S rank so we cant kill em

[willow flax]

Try to command them and move them somewhere else or something

[uncut widget]

It's over, restar

[fluid bramble]

Tried that quite a few times the command is grayed out

[fluid bramble]

So lame

[pale cedar]

haha, 308 go brrr

[tidal crown]

yall seen the creepy ass face in thank you come again?

the ones on the magazines

those shits scared the fuck out of me first play through

[pastel oxide]

You guys think it's possible we can have rappelling infiltration and ladder infiltration to add some vertical combat and climb over fences and sprint but not infinite sprinter just 5 second sprint to keep things balance in future updates

[wraith gale]

that was in the reveal trailer in 2017 but the feature was scrapped

[pastel oxide]

@wraith gale aw wish we could have it back in some update or DLC

[finite forge]

Are balaclavas avaliable in the base game?

[ripe ice]

this is not siege bro lol

[median coyote]

I mean, realistically, you cannot just throw a hook on something and call it a day. They mostly do this when on top of rooftops. Plus it ain't like just smashing through windows and somehow disconnecting their rope, instead it just makes them vulnerable when they make entry It just really used to get to one location that seems be beneficial to them or whatever.

[old pivot]

This is what he was thinking. Had a thunt mod installed

Also

How

Did the hand enter US soil

[median coyote]

Smuggling?

[real pulsar]

cough USIA cough

[old pivot]

The last 24 years have been solely dedicated, to the detriment of basically everything else, to creating a security state that cannot allow someone like the hand inside

[median coyote]

Well

Insiders?

[real pulsar]

USIA

[old pivot]

Real. More military spending plz

[real pulsar]

Real

[old pivot]

Nothing like a second 9/11 (the neon tomb massacre) to get another war cooking

[real pulsar]

Yep

[viral knot]

Hi

[viral knot]

Neon tomb was so hard first time i did it, once i get to it on my current playthrough ill see how hard it is

[real pulsar]

The lore is this game is fucking bonkers

Like it's cool but damn it gets strange

[viral knot]

For sins of the father should i start in the elevator or the rooftop?

[vagrant rover]

That sounded COOL. Sucks it was scrapped. Would offer variety with infiltration. Imagine being able to rappel through windows in Relapse, especially to make that sky bridge section easier.

[wraith gale]

there was also drones

[uncut widget]

Balcony

[viral knot]

oh theres a third i didnt realise

[real pulsar]

I think it's cool that they added the Heli feature

[median coyote]

it sucks doodoo bro

[real pulsar]

It's cool, didn't say effective lol

[pastel oxide]

But it would be super cool and really wish they add this in Ready or not more gameplay elements which is good

[uncut widget]

You better take Night vision glasses or flashlight for this lvl, cause it’s too dark to see traps

[viral knot]

Night vision glasses?

[uncut widget]

Yes? NVG

[viral knot]

NVG stands for Night Vision Goggles.
When you said glasses i assumed that maybe there is a feature in a certain pair of glasses idk about

[ionic gale]

Night vision goggles

[real pulsar]

Wish we had some CBRN missions

[median coyote]

same thing man

[uncut widget]

Mb yeah googles, just remembered them as glasses

[ionic gale]

Lil bro, that’s not the same thing 🙏

[pastel oxide]

@median coyote but it would give good dynamic gameplay more options and more fun they can add this in DLC levels were it's design to do rappel options and more infiltration routes

[vagrant rover]

Also, anybody get a weird reloading bug with shotguns where, even with the setting on for multiple shells to be loaded at once, your character will still only load in one?

It's not a major bug, as it will fix itself. Just thought it was weird.

[blissful kindle]

like the last terrorist hunt story mission in siege

[median coyote]

lil bro its so common sense what he meant

[median coyote]

Fun, eh , dyanmic yeah

[bitter marlin]

Carriers is after neon right?

[real pulsar]

Rappelling could be cool similar to the SAS embassy raid, but I don't think players should be able to place stuff

[pastel oxide]

Wow you no like rappelling and shooting

[ivory sandal]

Dark Waters, Three Letter Triad has a certain bio container irc

[pastel oxide]

Exacty

[real pulsar]

Didn't play them yet

I meant like drug raids could be cool if it required you use a gas mask and stuff

[vagrant rover]

Probably would be set places where you could rappel, because YEAH...Don't allow players to place it anywhere...That will be a nightmare with some people lmao

[ivory sandal]

Honestly just had it as a insertion method for skyscraper maps

[real pulsar]

Sprinting tho, no. This game is a cqb game sprinting is gonna result in getting shot.

[uncut widget]

As I remember no, it goes buy cheap, get twice

[blissful kindle]

rooftop spawn, and then you choose the stairs or rappelling to a lower balcony or something. that sounds cool

[ivory sandal]

Breach a window and insert

[manic swallow]

i gotta redo ALL the missions i s ranked before the update for medal of valor😭

[uncut widget]

Didn’t you get it before update?

[manic swallow]

i did half and saved the rest for update bc i wanted to get my team with the pepper pistol

[uncut widget]

Sell of history

[real pulsar]

A really cool but probably really hard thing would be a 10 player co op where each team is a different agency. Not entirely sure how it would work but could be cool

[median coyote]

What? If it was realistic your only use would be using a pistol. It aint easy to use a gun while rappeling and one hand needs to be on the rope to descend or ascend. Its just more dangerous overall as most suspects in this game have a rifle and just have plain aimbot. Its only use is only insertion, not jumping in windows all badass shooting

[pastel oxide]

5 second sprint won't hurt just to get out of annoying fire fight to get to cover I died so many times cause of the slow side movement plus enemy ai gets to run we should run too and catch them and in cqb we do run alot

[vagrant rover]

I actually thought about sprint being added. But maybe not as a regular player action to be used freely.

Maybe something akin to a short distance, and maybe only if you're being shot at, can you sprint away to gain distance. Maybe something akin to it being called " Tactical Distancing "

[real pulsar]

The whole point of the game is taking things slow, if you get killed because you couldn't run in time shits already fucked

[uncut widget]

You can actually sprint if you remove “ready position”

[real pulsar]

That makes sense

[median coyote]

The devs said no overall to sprint as they dont want the game to be fast and want you to take your time and be careful.

I THINK they said no to this idk

[bitter marlin]

I’d rather they add another Greased Palms 2: Even Greasier.

[real pulsar]

Yeah , again if you die because you couldn't run you did something wrong already

[real pulsar]

Evil mf

[spring knoll]

i get why they don't want the sprint because some missions don't lend themselves to it, but i wish you could at least have it briefly for a quick rush down a hallway or something. it's very infuriating to do a brisk walk in elephant while civs are actively getting shot.

the low ready mode helps a little but it's still not particularly fast.

[vagrant rover]

Does cross with fingers MAY THE POWER OF CHRIST COMPEL YOU

[pastel oxide]

@median coyote it doesn't feel immersive without abit of quick running just for 5 seconds wont hurt

[real pulsar]

Tbf, the low ready makes you pretty fast

[uncut widget]

Wear light ceramic armor then

[spring knoll]

it's fast but it carries the feeling of a brisk walk, like i said, which doesn't really feel right in missions with active shooters that need more urgency. i wouldn't mind if it tired you out or had some kind of downside / big limit.

[pastel oxide]

It doesn't have to be call of duty sprint bruh

[bitter marlin]

They should let us snort a few lines of cocaine for a speedboost

[median coyote]

We have high and low ready tho

[real pulsar]

Also the other options is unfortunately clearing. Quicker. Tbf you have a point I think the downside is you can't use your gun while it's active

[spring knoll]

they should also have a coffee machine where drinking 3 coffees gives you super speed.

(void please add it back)

[uncut widget]

This is not CoD speed demon movement tho

[real pulsar]

I also wish we could paint our guns, nothing like pink but like FDE. And the laser light combo

[bitter marlin]

Why can’t I slide cancel on Neon Tomb

[real pulsar]

Not enough coffee

[bitter marlin]

I love the 416 but I prefer it with the black furniture, Please VOID.

[pastel oxide]

Actually you can hoist your self in the body and hold primary rifles

[real pulsar]

I'm the opposite lol, but yeah painting guns would be nice

Also, versions of vests with no setups should also have versions that have setups.

[bitter marlin]

Variable zoom when?

[real pulsar]

Lpvos would be so much better

[bitter marlin]

I need a LPVO that isn’t thiccc

[vagrant rover]

Could work, but probably only on maps that would make sense for certain camos (I.E Urban, desert)

[real pulsar]

Tbf, swat teams don't rlly wear camo

[bitter marlin]

I can use a bright tan HK416 on Sins of The Father… I don’t think they care.

[haughty oriole]

I've done all missions on hard... VOID we need to talk.

[real pulsar]

I could be wrong but swat uniforms are more about intimidation and show of force than camo effectiveness

[haughty oriole]

I want money for my ptsd treatment, thank you

[real pulsar]

Lol, could be the title of a 30 minute video essay

[bitter marlin]

Whenever I get to the Chili’s mission I’m going to do my first run on hard.

[haughty oriole]

Do you know that popular ptsd Vietnam soldier picture?
I'm feeling that way right now.

[bitter marlin]

I need to finish Neon Tomb😬

[turbid fog]

So... I want to buy this game but keep seeing these booty reviews because of a child not convulsing, and peens/bewbs not exposed. Still good?

[haughty oriole]

If it's on standard I'm your man bro but no more hard mode. I AM DONE I ain't doing allat again

[vagrant rover]

But then again, we're taking about a SWAT game that uses the LAR Grizzly Win Mag as a sidearm, so yeah, pretty sure they don't care either lmao

[pastel oxide]

I agree 💯

[bitter marlin]

You’re also talking about a SWAT simulator that lets you use full autos.

[spring knoll]

still good, just janky. guns play very well.

[bitter marlin]

I literally could not imagine Neon on hard difficulty😭

[turbid fog]

Are the graphics any worse, or performance any worse? Sometimes I see reviews of that

[vagrant rover]

True, that too!

[bitter marlin]

They messed with the graphics a ton.

[spring knoll]

performance is a little better from before. there's some weird inconsistencies with shadows but generally the game looks fine.

[real pulsar]

The performance has actually somehow improved for me, but the graphics seem to be a bug apparently. I've still found the game enjoyable

Game doesn't look bad, but it's definitely not gonna blow you away

[haughty oriole]

It's actually easier than I thought, took me only try but I had a good crew to back me up. I was the last survivor and I met this last suspect, he was gonna go boom but I've put my whole mag into his neck. The mission that really broke me in hard mode has been the postal service, the hospital and hide and seek. The rest was doable even with bots.

[turbid fog]

I appreciate all the info. I really wanted to have a SWAT 4 / Rogue Spear sort of experience like from way back in the day (I'm 38), and it just seems like there is nothing like that except this

[haughty oriole]

I got carried in hide and seek I'm not gonna lie

[bitter marlin]

I think it’s mainly the lighting, I can’t see jack on that map.

I’ve come to the point where I might just run IR’s and nvg.

[real pulsar]

I'd say that this game, still delivers for me at least that realistic feeling. The most fun I've gotten was from co op.

[real pulsar]

Fuck the hospital, we all got gunned down by a fucking pkm I blame the USIA

[haughty oriole]

bro don't ask me how I've done allat I just ran on hopes and dreams. In my case postal service is actually hell on earth and that took me 7 hours to beat. Hide and seek 5

You really need to be lucky and patient tbh

[real pulsar]

Were you going non lethal

[spring knoll]

it's definitely the closest thing we have to swat 4. in many ways it's much better given how it's a modern release. the gun customisation and feel of firing, + the quality of the reloads and all is fantastic.
i will say it's not really as grounded or realistic-feeling as swat 4. it's a very edgy neo-noir esque vibe - they've kinda upped the spectacle and 'dark' stuff by a thousand to a point where you may find some of it stretching believability, but that also makes the game considerably harder as an experience which i kinda like.

[crisp aurora]

i lwk wish we got the legacy vest back from early access

[pastel oxide]

C'mon this a game that prides in realism you mean to tell me a swat/cop won't rush to cover if his getting shot at c'mon

[haughty oriole]

I did all missions on S rank yes but that was on standard and I went non lethal but that was a week ago. This week I've beat all levels on hard mode but I was going lethal, I wasn't going non lethal like that bro

[turbid fog]

Very much appreciate all of that info guys, thank you

[spring knoll]

i tried doing hard mode S ranks and dropped it quick. it's genuinely hard as balls.

[bitter marlin]

They should definitely let us do CQB with a PKM next update.

[real pulsar]

Tbf, the cop wouldn't be in that situation where he'd have to run. Because he'd have a bunch of guys covering him

[haughty oriole]

we need some sniping section in this game.

[turbid fog]

It's also crazy how big the community is for this game

[real pulsar]

Oh and if you wanna get some immersive experience the application voice attack allows you to command your squad with your voice. However it can be a bit tricky at times

I've set it up where if I yell hands I shout for compliance in game

[haughty oriole]

you cant play like that at 4 am

[real pulsar]

12 is pushing it lmao

[viscid knoll]

Yo guys i got a question, lets say my AI teamates are anxious, if i leave the game and dont play for a bit will their stress level go back to content?

[real pulsar]

It's mostly for co op when I'm already talking

[real pulsar]

I don't think so I think it's in game days

[viscid knoll]

Alright cuz im tryna do iron man commander mode and i dont want them to resign

[haughty oriole]

Just do a non lethal run S on thank you come again and their stress levels go to content INSTANTLY. That shit helped me get through the Ironman mode.

[pastel oxide]

I agree but sometimes there cases they can screw up so the only choice of action is to react fast move fast get to cover

[viscid knoll]

Bro for me they always die when they use non lethal 😭

[real pulsar]

Maybe it could be where suppression gives you a small speed boost

[real pulsar]

Gas gas gas

[viscid knoll]

Imo flash is better tho no? 😭 gas takes so long to activate and my teamates AI never throw it at the right spot

[bitter marlin]

Gas is also broken I think

[real pulsar]

Gas has worked well for me since you can hear coughing

[turbid fog]

Also... are the two DLCs worth buying? Dark Waters and Home Invasion?

[median coyote]

its broken yeah

[haughty oriole]

I mean uh they never die on me often cause I'm the man that's always in the Frontline and keep them far away from me cause they just block my path... Just make them take cover and do you job. That, always if you are playing at least on standard. You ain't doing Ironman on hard.

[real pulsar]

Is it? I personally have used it just fine

[vagrant rover]

That's an idea I had thought of too.
Being suppressed, and an adrenaline boost activates to distance yourself a small bit.

[viscid knoll]

Lets say i use gas, does the WHOLE room gets gased?

[haughty oriole]

Honestly, for 6 maps that you gonna replay a lot? Yeah, it's worth it. The dark waters dlc is amazing.

[real pulsar]

No clue I just fucking throw one hear a cough and charge in

[turbid fog]

Cool, okay

[real pulsar]

Also bunch of gear

[viscid knoll]

Yo i fo not wanna fuck this up rn

Im tryna get this run done but its stressful asl im on sinuous trail rn

[haughty oriole]

hey get in my dms

[real pulsar]

Yk mission sucked, stolen valor man fuck that

[viscid knoll]

Whatchu mean

[real pulsar]

Idk what it was but we got smoked

[gilded gulch]

Is it normal for ai to walk into their own door traps, I’m replaying a lethal obsession on hard and every time I keep hearing a couple die inside before breaching lol

[zenith sinew]

@hexed lake The game wasn’t added on gamepass and as I know so far there isn’t a current plan to.

You may have been seeing something else.

[pastel oxide]

Dark water I think was inspired by Mw2 level Dark water

[honest jetty]

cs gas is useless as hell

[loud osprey]

is there an eta on the big patch?

[ionic gale]

It is completely bugged right now and not working at all in the subject so you got to wait for that to get patched

[still totem]

Tips for S tier Greased Palms?

[honest jetty]

it was broken the entire time?

[ionic gale]

Yeah

[loud osprey]

it's a bit of a mess currently

[bitter marlin]

I don’t think I’ve ever been stressed out on Sinuous Trail. That’s like my chill out mission alongside Thank You, Come Again.

[ocean nebula]

When are tactical nukes going to be added

[viral knot]

Is buy cheap buy twice hard

Im doing ironman mode and finally got up to the mission without failing and i cant remember if its difficult or not

[wispy vector]

[alpine shard]

They should add true stories into the game

[viral knot]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulse_nightclub_shooting

[crude prism]

It's not so bad. But it is on the longer side.

I'd say it's easier than Neon or Sins if that helps at all

[alpine shard]

Ik that I am currently on that mission like they should add more

[viral knot]

Sins was easy for me, neon i struggle with often

[viscid knoll]

😭🙏

[viral knot]

Elephant, while not being a true story, is also based on the movie elephant.

[alpine shard]

I never seen elephant is it good?

[median coyote]

I think it was accidently referenced to the movie

[crude prism]

That's a hell of a coincidence.

[median coyote]

The name was to mean that "oh people have so many stressful things"

But never reference to the movie

[bitter marlin]

Nah, you just can’t be an idiot about it, has a tendancy to punish you hard for being such.

Don’t go infront of the big ass windows.

[bitter marlin]

It’s extremely intentional.

[median coyote]

it apparantly was not

[viral knot]

Similitaries

• Names are both Elephant
• Both at "Watt" Community College/Highschool
• Both include multiple bombs
  idk anything else

[median coyote]

yes ik, but it apparantly was not

[viral knot]

my ass 💀 whats your source

[median coyote]

The name was just suppose to mean something

I honestly swear to god I do not remember but it was in some video, let me see if I can find it

[bitter marlin]

Oh yeah it’s a coincidence because they meant elephants like real elephants because they have to do with science and Elephant takes place in the Science wing of Watt “Community College”

Duh

[median coyote]

#👮ron-discussion message

[viral knot]

Should i land at street or back alley for buy cheap buy twice

[bitter marlin]

I don’t think I’ve ever heard the phrase Elephant used to describe "oh people have so many stressful things"

[median coyote]

You know what I mean bro

[viral knot]

I dont think he does (neither do i)

[real pulsar]

Elephant in the room

[bitter marlin]

I don’t. At all.

[haughty oriole]

I had this weird shit where if everyone in the game died, in the multiplayer, I wouldn't be able to peek anymore from either the left and right side. Does anyone have that shit or is it just me?

[median coyote]

I dont even know it bro, let me find it god

[viral knot]

So should i go with street or back alley

[haughty oriole]

Back alley

[viral knot]

Ok

[haughty oriole]

I just can't play on the street, the cars just cover my view too much

[bitter marlin]

Back Alley, wedge exterior doors

[misty edge]

There is a bunch of references to the movie aside from them sharing the same name

[viral knot]

Yes sir 🫡

[median coyote]

Ugh I heard it wrong, I was listening to it while do something. Some director from some 2003 film misunderstood the word "elephant" from the 1983 film as something nerdy nerdy and instead was something nerdy nerdy about "elephant in the room" and stressful stuff. Yeah tbh even I was doubting myself

[viral knot]

okay

btw if i kill quadamah in neon tomb do i still have to do relapse?

[median coyote]

Its canon that he was arrested, not dead or incapicated

But even if you fail it, you still do it

[viral knot]

ok

[bleak dirge]

Are blue g3 combat shirt/pants ever going to exist?

[bitter zodiac]

I just did sins of the father

[blissful storm]

love that map

[stone bay]

GUYS I BEAT GREASED PALM ON S TIER

[viral knot]

Bro how

[stone bay]

It was the worst pain I’ve ever experienced and it realistically took me around 100 tries

[foggy fulcrum]

One of my favorites!

[bitter zodiac]

Yeah it just sounds badass

[lofty cipher]

All of my office are either stressed or in leave cuz of greased palms

[steep hare]

Yall any tips for Neon Tomb

[bitter zodiac]

Uh

Im barley abt to do it i js got it unlocked

[foggy fulcrum]

I wedge off as much of the first floor as possible (particularly the dance stage area) and then go up the stairs and slowly make my way through the second floor, and eventually back down to the first floor (visiting the areas I previously wedged off).

[bitter zodiac]

Idk if im getting better cause usally missons would take me a day and now it takes me less like for sins of the father i did it 3 times before beating ut

[steep hare]

Tbh ready or not isn't the hardest...if your not trying to get a S run and kill suspects

[rain marten]

Do y’all know when a Ron update is coming soon

[steep hare]

idk

[crystal parcel]

does anyone elses game on xbox look like shit rn graphics wise

[rain marten]

I feel like ready or not is slowly losing its tactical shooter genre

[steep hare]

Why's that???

[rain marten]

Because every time I sweep a room the whole map gets thrown at me instead of like one enemy per room

[crystal parcel]

🤨🤨🤨

[steep hare]

Yeah Ik what you mean but are you on hard mode

[rain marten]

No

[rain marten]

I’m new

[steep hare]

What mode?

[rain marten]

Standard

[crystal parcel]

am i muted?

[steep hare]

Oh I did standard on Sins of the Father and yeah they also charged me a bit yk

[covert aurora]

no?

[stone bay]

😎

[crystal parcel]

so why wasnt my question answered

[rain marten]

Also every time I throw a detained suspect or
Civilian they disappear off the map

[covert aurora]

no idea.

also #archived-known-issues

[steep hare]

what the...

[rain marten]

Yea happened to me on hide and seek

[steep hare]

oof

[cold burrow]

Anybody know what's the "lore name" for the state RoN is set in? Or is it also just, California?

[zenith sinew]

It is Los Suenos, California

[cold burrow]

Aight

[zenith sinew]

I’m not 100% that’s just what I could find and to my knowledge in game it never says other wise.

So I just go with it being a fictional city in California.

[terse quail]

300blk ap is better than 556 ap right

in terms of damage

[fading mountain]

Yes

[steep hare]

It's like L.A. but deadly

[zenith sinew]

So, basically still just LA lol

[steep hare]

Yeah

[viral knot]

Two more missions until I get the developers ruined watch! 😄 About to do relapse

Should i spawn in the main lobby or parking lot?

[ionic gale]

What are hell are Yoo-hoos?

Never had them

[viral knot]

chocolate milk

[zenith sinew]

Not milk, just a chocolate drink

[viral knot]

Oh i just guessed based on young sheldon

[zenith sinew]

No, it’s literally just a chocolate flavored drink of which I am not a personal fan of it.

[ionic gale]

I never had them, did I miss out?

[zenith sinew]

I’d say no.

[ionic gale]

I’m a Nesqik guy myself

[viral knot]

Me too

[ionic gale]

Well, considering the fact that they don’t have the zing of chocolate milk… I don’t know if I would want to have one

I don’t know if I want to drink straight chocolate I would like some milk to cut it down

[zenith sinew]

You won’t be missing out.

[ionic gale]

Aight

[zenith sinew]

It’s literally like chocolate flavored water in my opinion with no better way to really describe it.

[ionic gale]

Legit I think I had chocolate flavored water before

[rustic venture]

chocolate and chemical water

[ionic gale]

I think was just freaking powder or whatever with legit tapwater

That’s probably what a yoo hoo is but slightly less shit I guess

[zenith sinew]

I mean I won’t say it’s bad I just don’t like it.

[ionic gale]

I don’t know man… at that same age. I also ate an entire jar of Flintstone vitamin Gummies so I don’t know if I was the sharpest tool in the shed

Looking back when I was younger… I consumed some weird shit, dude

[zenith sinew]

I think most people have let’s be real.

[ionic gale]

I remember drinking some grape children’s cough medicine just straight from the bottle

Don’t fucking do that by the way

[zenith sinew]

Yikes…

[ionic gale]

I don’t know if it made me sick or anything, but yeah, I was really stupid

[zenith sinew]

I mean it’s medicine so if anything it made you more immune lol

[fervent hinge]

Using medication without prescription is the main cause of viruses becoming immune to medicine

[rustic venture]

dude my dermatologist gave me like a 60 day supply of antibiotics for acne

i am not taking those 😭 top 10 ways to let viruses devlope

[viral knot]

Should i go hospital main lobby or underground parking lot entrance

[tiny iris]

parking lot entrance

easy to clear from there since you start from the corner of the map and work your way inside instead of being exposed from all directions
thats what i think atleast

[viral knot]

ok

[rugged flicker]

best solo loaduout?

[tiny iris]

g3a51 ap rounds front and back steel armor
red laser and a holo
8flashbangs and 5 magazines
gas mask because it looks cool

[viral knot]

gas is better than flashbang

[tiny iris]

ive honestly never used cs gas j dont know why
maybe because my stupid ass plays too much counter strike i stuff my pockets with flashbangs in every game

[peak coyote]

Fairly sure it's bugged rn

[viral knot]

Bro my AR is bugged i cant shoot

oh its good now

[naive flame]

Thats how it reports in my achievement list 😭 i bought the game in dec and never played until now

[hazy token]

hm i have no idea

[naive flame]

me neither i looked it up online and it seems like nobody has ever had this glitch before 😭

[hasty nexus]

hey guys

[hazy token]

these are all new achievements, i wonder if its a bugged implementation. cuz i have all of those without the progression bar being filled for any of them. though i definitely have done all of those things over the time i previously played.

[hasty nexus]

thinking about buying the game but im not sure if its worth it without the dlcs (cant buy them rn) what do yall think

[hazy token]

the game is worth it without the DLCs imo. DLCs add some cosmetics and levels. home invasion is not a great DLC in my honest opinion, but Dark Waters is great. but the game itself is great without either of them

[naive flame]

This would make sense because it seems like people have had dlc achievements unlock for them in a similar manner so i would assume it happens with newly implemented patches and has not been resolved

[hasty nexus]

i see

[naive flame]

It is because you can also play dlcs without buying them in multiplayer

if your teammates own it

[hasty nexus]

interesting

[naive flame]

Also i just played this game for the first time today so as an unbiased player i enjoy it and would recommend it 🤔

[hazy token]

i think my best recommendation would be to watch youtube videos on it and see if the gameplay is your style. its def a harder game, though they did add a casual difficulty. but its not a run and gun game by any means so i don't think its for everyone

[prime wing]

@crude prism bro whos this doppleganger

[analog forge]

did you call timeout or no?

[crude prism]

another guy with good taste

[viral knot]

I stole his pfp because its my xbox 360 pfp from a long time ago

[hasty nexus]

yeah i already did, looks awesome
i just thought this was the type of game that you have to buy all dlcs for to get the "full experience"

[hardy forge]

One is slightly more yellow to tell them apart

[viral knot]

Ok guys about to do hide and seek wish me luck

[analog forge]

"...he who aims with his hand has forgotten the face of his father."

[hazy token]

nahh so Home Invasion adds 3 maps and a couple cosmetic options. Dark waters add the same. not necessary, but nice additions for when you complete the base game

[edgy salmon]

Ron isnt a paradox game dw

[edgy salmon]

You forgot the supporter edition dlc
(Like the devs did)

[wispy vector]

On top of those 6 new maps for both dlcs it also says that for los Suenos they’ve added two new remastered maps from the early access period?

so we have the 18 main missions plus 8 more maps?

[desert island]

im praying for u

so i can do all the maps on standard with no armor and pistol only

but doing hardmode without armor or grenades is :^(

[fervent hinge]

Retired cop

[naive moon]

Will there ever be a 4v4 multi-player option? The bots are fun but it'd also be a blast to go up against your friends.

[desert island]

just clear a map and then turn on someone

then it will be 1v3

[fervent hinge]

The only pvp so far is the cqc training part in the basement

[desert island]

there should be a way to heal other than stopping bleeds

[fervent hinge]

Morphine
Yippeeeeee

[desert island]

defibrillator longtactical to revive dead cops or civilians and suspects

[naive moon]

Stopping bleeds is all you really can do in the field.

[fervent hinge]

This ain't Hollywood tho

[desert island]

well i think having medic gear would be a strong alternate playstyle

if they run out of ideas

[naive moon]

Some quick clot and a tourni, and get out ASAP.

[fervent hinge]

Plus swat medics are unarmed

[naive moon]

I mean, they have a STRONG foundation to turn this game into a COD/BF killer, I just doubt they care to push it that far

[hardy forge]

Was thinking about that the other day, it would be a great utility to have

[desert island]

how about this then:
paramedic that can carry dead swat teammates to the insertion point which replaces the dead swat with a swat who magically has the same gear and name as a revive system

[hardy forge]

I dont think theyre comparable tbh, there are a lot of fundamental differences

[naive moon]

That's the point.

[desert island]

so like retreating a "dead" player and replacing them with a "new" agent

[hardy forge]

Ah my bad, think I misunderstood what you were saying

[kindred crag]

That can work, but wouldnt that undermine the lore of understaffed cops tho, it is an interesting idea tho

[fervent hinge]

Just throw a reinforcement strategem
And a replacement ron diver gets sent from the sleeping pod

[crude prism]

bro I like RoN a lot, we ain't there

[viral knot]

I found the container

[desert island]

we have a carrying bodies system
we also have a way of retreating system
also we have a respawn system
so having the ability to drag a dead teammate to spawn and request "replacement"

is totally doable

[naive moon]

COD is dead since they went woke. BF hasn't made a good game since BF2. Like 80% of the COD MP player base is obsessed with S&D and Domination. If they made a 4v4 online mode, it's practically already there

[spice arrow]

Crazy first thing to see when joining lol

[desert island]

im just saying if u r able to rescue a dead teammate and take the time to actually carry them back to spawn, i think thats a good trade off rewarding slow play

[kindred crag]

I like that idea, but I wonder if it should be implemented in standard or hard mode. I can see it being amazing in casual for newer players especially with the influx of console players but I feel it would water down the immersion/grittyness of standard or hard mode to try your best not to get killed

[fervent hinge]

Get out of here you cannibal

[naive moon]

That would be neat. It'd give actual utility to the functions that exist

[desert island]

i think its pretty gritty to casavac teammates in dangerous situations

[spice arrow]

eated a lee 😋

[hardy forge]

I dont know, bf6 trailer and footage looks solid so far. Im excited to see what theyre cooking

[fervent hinge]

Is it gay to eat your homies?

[prime wing]

stop

[hardy forge]

Any tips for non-lethal greased palms? Spent a solid 3 hours in it with no luck yesterday

[kindred crag]

Yh probably could be an option in settings tbh, I see the arguement why people want it the way it is (for difficulty sake) but also how it can also help new upcoming players learning the game who just want to play the game w their friends casually

[fervent hinge]

Greased palm is very dependent on rng but if you want a easier way to do it use flash launcher

They insta surrender every enemy almost
And have a good range and radius

[hardy forge]

The new one or the utility slot one

[fervent hinge]

The main one

[hardy forge]

I'll have to try it, thank you!

[kindred crag]

Used to be easier before the CS gas nerf/bug where the radius could fill a whole room

[fervent hinge]

Good luck

[hardy forge]

Had one good run but one of my dudes got domed at the end

[fervent hinge]

It was the outside part wasn't it

[kindred crag]

Does anyone know if the CS gas change was intentional or a bug?

[hardy forge]

Yep

[hardy forge]

Ive heard bug but I dont know for sure

[fervent hinge]

They did fuck me up a good amount of times there
Big area
And with my bean bag
It's ehhh

[hardy forge]

Is ammo pretty limited with the launcher or can you bring a good amount

[kindred crag]

Stingers are a nice alternative for that outdoor section, works better with a bigger radius like outdoors

[fervent hinge]

It should give you like uhhh 19 or 13 shots
Let me check

[naive moon]

Ya, I gotta see the MP trailer on the 31st before calling it. I'm not huge on single player/campaigns. It looks good but theres been a lot of misses in that franchise. COD is dead to me though so im glad this game came around for console

[rustic venture]

i just realized gerad scott isn't in the holding cell but his accomplice is, in lore is he in federal custody?

[hardy forge]

Have you seen any of the footage from the alpha?

[desert island]

flash launcher honestly has enuff ammo to do up to relapse

[fervent hinge]

Okay it gives you 18 shots
If you put 12 of your slots on it

[desert island]

but porthokan and triads ull prbly need more than 2 grenade launchers maxed out

[hardy forge]

Good to know, thank you!

[naive moon]

Not yet, I forgot all about BF6 until you mentioned it

[kindred crag]

That and according to Lvlcap, they were planning on having all weapons be open to all classes but the devs also heard the feedback and may revert back to its closed weapon classes

[desert island]

6 shots starting +12 shots taking 12 slots, then 4 shots from long tactical for 22 insta flashes

u get 1 extra slot free

[hardy forge]

It looks similar in style to BF3/BF4

[naive moon]

BF4 was good back in the day. I tried playing it recently and my god we've come a long way haha

[hardy forge]

I thought it looked so good back in the day lmao, going back now its hard to look at

[naive moon]

The movement was so bad 😂

Speaking of movement, I wish RoN would fix the lean. Are they going for hyper realism where every character has low back issues? Lol

Dude leans a half inch in each direction

[hardy forge]

Its realistic for me

[naive moon]

I feel that Thane 😂

Between BMX/MX/USMC/Corrections and every day bullshit, my back checked out a long time ago 🫠

[hardy forge]

I fell a long way and knocked some disks loose

[naive moon]

Good times

[kindred crag]

I use the free lean (left alt defult) used it alot and works well for me, ESPECIALLY with riot shields

you learn much further and as an added bonus you can crouch and lean farther to the the sides and lower to the ground closer to the floor

[naive moon]

Ya, but that locks you in place. I didnt know crouch and lean allowed for a further lean though. Still new to the game, probably less than 3 hours on. Appreciate the tip

[kindred crag]

Sorry, correction leaning further to the sides while crouching works while free leaning* not the default ctrl crouch 😅

[viral knot]

just finished my ironman mode run, seeing some people from the discord in the game credits was cool

YES I FINALLY GOT IT

THE DEVELOPERS RUINED WATCH

[kindred crag]

how'd did it go? were there some times that irritated or annoyed you? 👀

[late wasp]

anyone know why my swat ai are just chilling and only one is filling out search and secure commamd

[kindred crag]

What was your strat?

[viral knot]

Close the game if you or your teammates die 👌

[kindred crag]

not sure actually, I think its just an issue with the games mapping ai

[blissful storm]

they are pretty bad at it

[kindred crag]

😂 nice

[late wasp]

officer cruz has been "securing fiveseven" for like 5 minutes

useless guy

[kindred crag]

Also they dont secure secondary or soft objectives

[late wasp]

i have it i just need evidence lol

[kindred crag]

Do they even diffuse? Genuine question, never noticed it since I find them quiet easily and do them myself

[late wasp]

like in the college map?

[blissful storm]

i looked for the last gun for 20 minutes yesterday, it was under some suspect

[late wasp]

theres no command for it so i dont think so

[kindred crag]

yh

[kindred crag]

Wouldnt technically search and secure command technically would fall into that?

[errant bane]

highlight guns

turn it on in settings bro shits a lifesaver

[kindred crag]

Also, what's y'all's favorite long tactical? Mine's the shield but switch to primary when glass breaks

[errant bane]

battering ram

[blissful storm]

ye i forgot about that i dont like using it tho breaks my immersion, only use it sometimes if it takes me too long to find the last evidence

[errant bane]

me and my friend duo’d the entire game off the combo of mirrorgun + ram

shotgun is fine too but I don’t like that it doesn’t open the door entirely

[kindred crag]

FBI OPEN UP 😂

[empty vault]

what about traps? if yall gotta peak the door open to look for traps whats the point in the battering ram

[errant bane]

i carry c4 too

[blissful storm]

ive only been using mirror gun tbh, i feel so naked without it

[kindred crag]

same

[errant bane]

c4 sets off traps and usually suspects are barricaded in trapped rooms anyways

[empty vault]

why would a shotgun open the door entirely

[errant bane]

also you can see traps with the mirrorgun anyways

traps are a minor inconvenience to me honestly

I’ve died to one like once and it’s because the defuse prompt didn’t pop up even though i was right on it

[empty vault]

so you defuse the traps, then shut the door to use the ram?

[errant bane]

no i just c4 trapped doors or just ignore them and go another way

[empty vault]

c2*

[errant bane]

or i just peek it and defuse if i know theres no enemies in it

[kindred crag]

although I have to ask, what can the battering ram do that the lockpick gun cant do? I feel that the battering ram is too costly for a slot for what it does. Is there a mechanic im not aware of?

[empty vault]

if theres enemies that see the door they be shooting me through the door if i peak it

[errant bane]

scares enemies

they’re more likely to surrender if you smash the door down compared to just opening it regularly

[empty vault]

well anything is better than the lockpick unless you dont have a battering ram and your legs are broken

also the lockpick isnt even realistic to begin with

[kindred crag]

ah thats actually helpful info thanks

[empty vault]

as realistic this game is supposed to be some of it confuses me

[errant bane]

also sometimes you really gotta move through fast and it’s quicker to ram the door than lockpick it

like on elephant i say fuck the lockpick and just ram every locked doors

[kindred crag]

the elephant yh

[empty vault]

yea some maps dont have traps and the ram is very useful

[errant bane]

yea i use c4s when enemies are like right up on the door cause it knocks them out

[kindred crag]

I assume not really since its limited plus it can kill

[empty vault]

guys its c2 lmfao

[errant bane]

or like i said earlier when the doors trapped and there’s a bad guy in there

also it’s badass to just blow up the door entirely

[empty vault]

well you can sacrafice a mag for a throwable or a throwable for a mag

[empty vault]

it really is tho

using a c2 and then someone going in first with a shield is so cinematic

[kindred crag]

for only 1 c2? 😂

[empty vault]

no i think there's 2 within every 1 you hold

like i only hold 1 and i have 2 of them

[kindred crag]

Actually?

[errant bane]

yea i carry 2 and it gives me 4

[empty vault]

yea i think only the c2 works that way tho

[kindred crag]

noted

[errant bane]

i do use it pretty often

[kindred crag]

I thought it only gave you 1

[errant bane]

I think wedges work the same cause i carry 1 and it gives me 2

[empty vault]

yea you're right

i have yet to find a need for wedges

[errant bane]

you might think a ram and c2 and wedges are counterintuitive but i make it work

[errant bane]

i usually just lock shit behind me so I don’t get flanked

[empty vault]

i understand how you use them for rooms you already clear so enemy dont flank but the enemy rarely flanks me

[kindred crag]

I use alot of flashes and typically my approach with doors is peek and flash

[blissful storm]

this is so necessary in hard mode the enemies are scary sometimes

[errant bane]

I use them when my friend checks a door and I know there’s a bad guy past another door

[empty vault]

i play hardmode regularly and barely get flanked

[errant bane]

so that he doesn’t just run in and gun us down

[empty vault]

maybe i just havent found the map that they do it mostly in or sum

[kindred crag]

I carry AT LEAST 4

[errant bane]

you can also just keep enemies out of places you don’t want them to go anyways

[blissful storm]

i got flanked once and started using them more, maybe they dont flank much but i just wanna be extra safe

[empty vault]

oh im use to sweeping, so i clear everything

[kindred crag]

especially in multi room buildings like the Sins of the Father and Ides of March

[errant bane]

like if you’re going through a door but you wanna make sure the enemy can’t retreat outside just wedge all the other doors

[empty vault]

sins of the father ive played 3 times and havent gotten flanked

[kindred crag]

Its a nice insurance

[blissful storm]

because if they do flank it can ruin ur entire mission, better safe than sorry

[empty vault]

only issue i had was there would be one enemy that would run into a room i already cleared, he wouldnt flank me but just be in a room i cleared

[unreal quarry]

I js spent like an hour looking for a single gun on valley of the dolls

[errant bane]

that too

some maps they’re not really useful but some maps yea you never really know

[empty vault]

also being stabed does hitting the suspect stop them?

[kindred crag]

I started using it more after getting backstab by a crazy methhead in Twisted Nerve

[errant bane]

it stuns them for a second so you can back off and shoot them

[empty vault]

i feel like that would be the only thing the pepper spray is good for, why tf is it in the game lmfaoo

nobody uses pepper spray fr

[errant bane]

i have never used pepper spray or the taser

I do carry a taser on my non lethal loadout but i never use it

[empty vault]

ive seen people use a taser doing non lethal but never pepper spray

[errant bane]

beanbags are usually enough to get someone down or just meleeing them

[kindred crag]

I use taser for non compliant civs or suspects that refuse to cooperate in a tight spot

[blissful storm]

ive only seen ppl do pepper spray for meme runs

[empty vault]

i also feel like the pepper ball weapons are ass

i gotta shoot someone at least 3-4 times , even in the face

[kindred crag]

I think its because of the CS gas bug

[errant bane]

if you shoot guys in the face it works but yea it takes way too many shots

[blissful storm]

shot a mag into someones face didnt do anything

[empty vault]

ive had times where i shoot a dude twice in the face and he still tries shooting me

[kindred crag]

has a nice aoe tho, also really good when the suspect has the hostage as shield

[errant bane]

me and my friend just combo beanbag + pepperball and enemies surrender immediately

[empty vault]

and on top of that its like they do an animation the first time the shot effects them but then if i shoot them twice within that animation its like it never effected them. idk if it has to do something with the animation or what

[blissful storm]

me too yesterday and i only got a C because i killed too many suspects lmao

[empty vault]

some of the guns fall through the map, ive had that happen

[errant bane]

highest I’ve gotten on VOD is B but I haven’t really tried to go higher than that

[empty vault]

or a suspect would be right next to a shelf so when i down them the gun drops on top of the shelf for some reason and i cant grab it

[errant bane]

yesterday ran it back with 2 friends and got a C cause a civvy caught a stray

no idea how they died they weren’t anywhere close to the gunfight

[empty vault]

the civs be dumb ash in this game

[blissful storm]

oh ye i killed the main suspect so maybe thats why my rank was so low too

[empty vault]

also why do suspects get scared of gunshots? they're literally using a gun to try and kill you, ive tried arresting suspects while there's gunfire going off and they be getting scared n shi

[errant bane]

well dudes give you death threats and act tough then start crying like a girl when they get shot

[empty vault]

i got a lot of questions about this game

[kindred crag]

That is true

Its a hilarious rollercoaster,

[empty vault]

its realistic and not realistic at the same time

[kindred crag]

"I aint gonna surrender, I rather die" > "ok ok I surrender" > "Uncuff me, I wanna have a fair fight"

[stone bay]

How many rounds does the breaching shotgun have? Just four for the whole mission? Or do I get multiple?

[kindred crag]

multiple plus reload

[stone bay]

ah nice okay

[kindred crag]

dont know exactly how many rounds tho'

[dim lion]

enough

i swear guys are more tanky now a unarmored guy just took 3 shots and didnt die

308 btw

[empty vault]

like we were talking about in general chat, if you're using AP on unarmored targets it takes more bullets if they arent lethal

are you missing the weapons case?

[errant bane]

by getting angry and dying and retrying

[empty vault]

ive had people not know that was there'

[errant bane]

those guys on elephant and sins of the father are juggernauts

[empty vault]

try drawing targets out or getting them to move, also utilize flashbangs or gas

[dim lion]

im on 28 mbps

[errant bane]

also does anyone else think it’s funny the literal Secret Service got dunked on by local SWAT

[dim lion]

one of the guys just took 5 308s and got back up and surrendered

[empty vault]

which map is that?

[errant bane]

just built different dude

[empty vault]

have you used it?

[errant bane]

sins of the father

[dim lion]

are ppl tankier on multiplayer

[kindred crag]

yh there is a bug that reduced the range of CS gas to near 0

[empty vault]

damn well ive only used it in small rooms so i havent experienced issues

i dont really use throwables in an open space

[kindred crag]

I think its mainly supposed to be used indoors

[earnest shell]

Wait. On the console release, the basement of Valley of the dolls got massively censored? It‘s only porcelain dolls there. So much about Void‘s transparency on what they‘ve censored…

[unreal quarry]

I had a flash launcher and a pepperball i was going for s

[honest jetty]

i genuinly didnt know there was traps on twisted nerves i somehow completed it without even checking for one

[earnest shell]

Suddenly I couldn‘t lean anymore or place down wedges (I retrieved them)

[kindred crag]

I mean, im enjoying the game so far. Sure the AI is dumb as rocks and there some annoying bugs like stuck npcs. But I do like the atmosphere, tone, and unique gameplay on console that it offers especially when it comes to playing w friends

[earnest shell]

Must be hard mode then

[honest jetty]

im too lucky

[honest jetty]

It was way before lss

[kindred crag]

I'll give it time, till they patch it out

[earnest shell]

There were no traps on Twistes Nerves ever before this.
Only maps with traps were Brisa Cove, the forest and the hotel

[kindred crag]

I think that is a hardmode exclusive feature yh

[empty vault]

have yall experienced the glitch when disabling traps? if i used that locked lean mode whatever its called, and i lower myself to dissarm a trap, ill be stuck in that mode but itll let me move, and wherever i look ill lean that way

[earnest shell]

Problem is. For a shitty crossplay feature that doesn‘t even work properly - they have sacrificed the graphics and F*ed up a lot for stability. So many gamebreaking bugs I‘ve encountered (and I haven‘t even talked about the censorship scandal yet)

[kindred crag]

I have the annoying bug after removing a wedge, I suddenly cant interact with doors, evidence, nor arresting suspects. Is that a common issue?

[earnest shell]

I had similar stuff, yeah…

[earnest shell]

Can you not lean as well afterwards?

RoN fell from grace. But Void has no one to blame, but themselves

[kindred crag]

I could lean yeah, but cant use or disable the headcam of teamates which is wierd af

same

[earnest shell]

I hugely care about the censorship. But the fact they screwed over the game so hard performance/stability wise is just beyond me.

[blissful storm]

they should've worked on it for a little longer before the release of the update tbh, these bugs are very annoying

[errant bane]

I mean yall could just roll back the patch

it’s on reddit dude

[earnest shell]

I‘m pretty sure we cannot

[errant bane]

keep crying then lol

yea the game is fucked but I literally just told you you can unfuck the game

[blissful storm]

nah i dont wanna roll back i like the hard mode, even tho they have aimbot sometimes, they just need to fix them bugs, my game performance is good though

[earnest shell]

So you‘re telling me that if I want to have a playable version of the game, I need to do it in an unofficial way, because Void won‘t do?
You‘re part of the cultist fanboys I see

[errant bane]

“you’re part of the cultist fanboys” tf does that even mean lmao

[earnest shell]

The ones that defend Void every step of the way

[errant bane]

I didn’t say anything about void???

[blissful storm]

he just gave you a solution how is he a fanboy lmao

[errant bane]

im not gonna give you the fucking step by step solution right here when you can just Google it

[blissful storm]

ye it is, googling isnt hard buddy

[earnest shell]

I never asked for a step by step solution lol

[blissful storm]

good for you ig

👍

[errant bane]

then just don’t roll the game back then

i mean i just told you you could and you don’t want to so

[stone bay]

Any tips for s-ranking car dealership as a solo? Friendly A.I in RON is a joke so I'm gonna not use them for this one mission 😂 . They don't clear properly, they stand around and move from point to point like brainless idiots.

[earnest shell]

I mean. My point is I‘m just tired of the community having to iron out Void‘s mistakes.
Isn‘t anything personal against you.

[errant bane]

yea it’s stupid that this even has to happen in the first place but here we are

what should’ve happened is the game gets ported to console maybe a couple things get censored and that’s it

not the graphics turn all blurry and shit

[stone bay]

I run NVG all the time 😂 So I don't know what you guys are all complaining about most of the time, XD. It looks fine to me but I'm not the biggest RoN player. It's not exactly sharp, but it's not a 2003 game either.

[errant bane]

I’d say about 2/3 of the graphics are cooked

[stone bay]

Eh, looks fine to me. How cooked?

[humble mauve]

The graphics/lighting is a known bug, was not intentional or done to facilitate crossplay

[errant bane]

like if you just go to hq and look at some of the lighting it’s rough

[errant bane]

i am aware

[errant bane]

uh it’s all like pixelated and shit

[stone bay]

Seems fine to me? I can see pretty high-quality reflections and stuff. Must be a bug like you say because nothing stands out to me.

[blissful storm]

https://imgur.com/a/ZvHCp7F jus look at this lol

[stone bay]

I've not had any pixelated experiences with graphics so far.

[errant bane]

it’s very irritating to look at

[blissful storm]

not my game but ye

[earnest shell]

Void was way too fking overconfident with the console port.
They also lied that censorship was the only thing needed to be changed for crossplay.
Honestly they deserve the reviewbombing

[stone bay]

What's wrong with that?

[errant bane]

well why is all the grass gone

[blissful storm]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JAgJpM9duEw just check this video, see the difference

[stone bay]

I dont' see any pixelation there?The textures are a little low-res on hte fence, sure, but none of that looks bad.

[errant bane]

i mean the game was ported to modern gen consoles not the Xbox 360

[crude prism]

What else was changed besides the censorship in order to accomodate consoles?

(actually asking, not trying to grief)

[stone bay]

It's not a 4k masterpiece but it doesn't look bad. Maybe downgraded... but not bad. I can't tell anything's off not having played RoN recently before and after.

[errant bane]

I’ll tag you in the media channel with a picture hold on

[blissful storm]

idk if its like that in my game i have to check later but it looks like that for some ppl atleast

[stone bay]

I checked the video. All looks fine?

[earnest shell]

Graphics downgrade. Plus the bugfest that RoN is now only has to do with this too

[blissful storm]

lighting is completely different, low texture, no grass, i think thats pretty bad

[stone bay]

I've got a 2k display, running everything on high-epic. I really only care about the bugs since the graphics downgrade either isn't noticeable to me, or hasn't hit me yet with the bug that causes it.

[stone bay]

No grass? Outside the playable area? That's not bad at all? Sure it's not a positive, but it doesn't ruin anything, it's just annoying. Low-textures I didn't even see in that screenshot, apart from the fence which is really only ther if you get up close and look at it.

[earnest shell]

The problem is. Yes we get more FPS now. But. Ready or Not always had poor optimization. They downgraded the graphics, because they don‘t know how to optimize their game

[stone bay]

Game looks good, not great and not like some next-gen masterpiece, but it's not a pixelated mess like you're running a game on minimum settings.

[errant bane]

i sent it

fuck wrong channel meant to put that in screenshots but whatever

[blissful storm]

ye i havent noticed the graphics being that much different in other maps, like i said idk if its only an issue for some people, im gonna check how this map looks on my end later

[errant bane]

also neon tomb had a problem with weird ass fog all over the map since the update

[stone bay]

Looks blurry, yeah. That's weird. It just looks like someone's running on minimum settings. That's not due to the gas mask or anything right?

[errant bane]

i ran it back today and didn’t have that for once

[stone bay]

My game doesn't look like that. Looks all good. I ran Neon Tomb yesterday, haven't noticed any fog on it. Weird that it's only hitting certain people.

[errant bane]

that’s just one example

it’s honestly more noticeable when you see it in person than in a screenshot

if you could show how hq looks in your game that’d be really interesting

mostly just like the spawn area with the logos on the wall

[crude prism]

Are we still on the "Void is lying about graphics downgrades" part of the conversation?

[shy flame]

I didn't notice anything like that

[noble pasture]

How legit is the new flashbang launcher primary? @crude prism

[humble mauve]

Very

Imagine the beanbag, but a flashbang

[abstract isle]

but only effective to a 5-10 foot radius

[crude prism]

It's probably the most overpowered item in the entire game

Actually not even probably.

It is

[shy flame]

why do so many players i join run shield?

in all honesty shield is great and all but like i had 4 teammates run shield

[charred ginkgo]

Shield > All

[stone bay]

Covers you from behind

[shy flame]

isnt that what teammates are for?

[stone bay]

Yeah but the ai are wonky sometimes so if someone manages to get you behind you the sheild will save you

[shy flame]

would like to see people use the other stuff a bit more

[toxic heath]

Is the patch today?

[stone bay]

uh oh a patch

[wispy vector]

[obtuse wing]

Yo, can i unlock cosmetics by playing on beginner mode?

Or i need to play on normal

[wispy vector]

Tbh beginner is hella easy, I think you’d have more fun playing on standard

[obtuse wing]

Yeah i know but i just want to unlock some tattoos, i completed missions many times

[stone bay]

someone on ps5 dm me: i need assistance

[wispy vector]

I know some tats require s rank but I’m honestly not sure about the mode

[shy flame]

id just like to say the burger in the detective room looks delicious

but its weird the wrapper says "crispy chicken" when its clearly beef

unplayable hope they patch this major issue

[noble pasture]

Stronger than bean bag?

[sonic scaffold]

I use it bc it covers ur rear when unequipped and allows you to peak corners and doors like the optiwand, but keeps you protected and you can still shoot any threats

[shy flame]

I guess its more effective for hard difficulty when the AI just pops you quick

[sonic scaffold]

if i didn't use it on neon tomb or greased palms on hard im 99% sure I wouldve lost it

[stone bay]

Best gun for just deleting suspects? I've been using ther MK17 but I also like the LVAR. Anyone got any advice on which to choose, or if another one is better? Something that'll just reliably one-tap suspects no matter where they're hit would be ideal, but I'm wondering what people's thoughts are.

[shy flame]

that makes sense for wide open maps i understand that

speaking about wide open maps when are we getting a bank map

[sonic scaffold]

i believe the GA51 is the meta gun rn, same bullet as the SCAR but the gun is half the size

[stone bay]

Ooh, thanks.

[blissful storm]

g3a3 1-2 taps enemies for me, been using it for a long time

[stone stump]

the best overall is ARN-18

[stone bay]

What's it modelled on, anyone know?

[stone bay]

that's only 5.56 right?

[stone stump]

.300 BLK

[stone bay]

oh really? Neat.

[stone stump]

so is LVAR in case you didn't know that already

[stone bay]

I knew about LVAR yeah. Wasn't sure whether 300 BLK or 762 was better though, so it was a toss-up for me between MK17 and LVAR until you mentioned this compact battle rifle GA51 thingo

[stone stump]

GA51? HK51

[sonic scaffold]

so 300. > 7.62x51 in game?

[stone bay]

Ooh, okay thanks.

[ocean nebula]

Guys, I'm going to get ron soon and I wanna know if you unlock every weapon and gear at the start of the game.

[dense timber]

Yes (skins, no)

[ocean nebula]

Appreciate it

[stone stump]

no, the former is just more controllable + bigger mag. sure, you can one tap suspects on most maps with 7.62, but you can just as well double tap with .300 BLK to get the same effect (not to mention it's more consistent, as 2 taps will incap a suspect on every map this way)

[sonic scaffold]

oh i get it

[sharp kindle]

Hey, does the alt f4 when dying in ironman would work on ps ? Like if i close the game instantly when i died ?

[stone stump]

i would assume it does

[stone bay]

Ron pathfinding needs the SWAT to pathfind around the player. Not just be "oh you're standing in my one specific path even thought there's ample space to slide past you. It really annoys me because then I have to stop holding a spot for them when they could just walk behind me.

[sharp kindle]

Alright im gonna try on a new game, but how does it work ? Like i tried dying but i still could go to the hq and relaunch the mission

[dense timber]

Was swat ai better before coming to console

[crude prism]

Yes. But it doesn't seem to be a "console" thing, it's bugged tf out right now on PC too.

Like I've never seen the AI just walk a mile away when I tell them to do something before (not in years)

[stone bay]

can bots still search the map at the end of a mission for civilians and guns?

[sonic scaffold]

"out of the way chief" as an entire parking lot is behind me

[crude prism]

They also seem to have trouble targeting suspects for some reason, even though they have clear sightlines

[dense timber]

Could ai properly cover each other pre console? They seem misaligned so that certain angles are just vulnerable

Like ai failed to hold a hallway with on guy approaching, (didn’t shoot back cuz angle, but the door was behind held just not in the part where the danger came from)

[rigid tartan]

Dude I more then badly want them to add patrol officer clothing so we can larp as normal LSPD officers.

[stone bay]

Same here. The way they move from point to point, cover angles, clear rooms once they make entry, it just leaves a lot of uncovered angles and stuff. They're not in sync with each other. One guy's side was open for AGES and he died before the next guy made entry to cover him. That's what happened in the SWAT tv show 🤣 And the characters were all "You need to be better!" So...why aren't the A.I.? 😂

[crude prism]

My response is entirely annecdotal, but yes, one AI is always be bringing up the rear, and the rest will transition between various thresholds.

It doesn't mean it's perfect, but the current experience IS NOT what I am familiar with

[stone stump]

you weren't in ironman mode then

[crude prism]

They absolutely did some tweaking and I don't know if it's just bugged on it's own, or a result of the bad-compile we're currently on

[dense timber]

It’s so ronver

[crude prism]

It's not the first time, unfortunately.

Void has trouble getting out "clean" updates, and there are always bugs/issues, especially with content update patches.

They've always wrangled control back, it's just extra sour at the moment because of the "drama" leaving bad tastes in our collective mouths

[unborn lagoon]

Is there a scheduled update for console?? I have been looking everywhere on socials and haven’t seen any date for a update, this needs to be fixed ASAP😭😭😭

[stone bay]

Ah, I see the graphics downgrade. They did indeed take away the grass. But the ground still has a grass texture. Kind of annoying, but it's at the start of the mission and if I wasn't looking I wouldn't have noticed.

[sharp kindle]

well idk it says activated when i was making the new save, and i got the pop saying i only have one life and any loss is forever, but still if i die on the first mission i can come back with ai being stressed so i don't really know

[crude prism]

At this point, with how random the graphics issues seem to be, I don't know what the fuck is supposed to be a "performance" change versus what is a "compiling error"

[stone bay]

lol, the ai go around to kick and clear from the side I'm on... instead of kicking from their side of the door that I'm staring at 😂 Kind of redundant that, because I already cleared it. Still funny though.

"In the way" but there's a whole other room to move through and around. I'm standing in a tiny section of the room blocking one side of the table in the first main room of Carriers of the Vine. 🤣 Why can't the A.I. have pathfinding to go around the player? Is that not... a basic feature?

[sharp kindle]

Damn, i retried, but still can restart the mission, so idk maybe it's buggy on console

[stone bay]

I've noticed them getting stuck stacking up on doorways. They just... don't move. I pushed past and cleared the whole damn room and they STILL didn't come out -.-

They're basically on perpetual "fall-in" or else they do something stupid.

It's weird. If I leave them to do stuff on their own, sometimes it works, but the MOMENT I do anything near them they glitch and either fail or just freeze. Really weird and frustrating but I'm not sure why it's like that or how it would be fixed.

[quartz coyote]

Any1 got a fix for my deleted gunfighter mod still taking up 3 non assigned slots. and when i change it i just get zero mags and its unplayable.

[crude prism]

Selecting the default loadout should fix your inventory.

Then edit it and save as a new loadout to use

[median cedar]

so does Gas not work on PC right now?

[noble pasture]

A+ is easy if you have bean bag, give ai guns and take point

Try to arrest as many guards as you can

[crude prism]

Gas got nerfed. It's really mid-to-bad at the moment. They said it would change, so just hold off for now

[median cedar]

👍

[shy flame]

damn i just used it and thought it made a difference but turns out it didnt lol thanks for saying this tho i was running it

[noble pasture]

Try to also use bangs, gas nades are bugged right now

[fervent hinge]

Why didn't I get the achievement for having two kickers in my squad at the same time
What's the bug

[noble pasture]

Gotta give them the order to kick a door

[fervent hinge]

I did do that too
Does it have to be the kickers guy in specfic?

[noble pasture]

While having both Kickers on the team, hmm unsure

Kick 2 doors then. I got it on the second one

[fervent hinge]

Also does the door need to be locked actually or can it be any door

[noble pasture]

Kick all the doors

[fervent hinge]

I did that
Didn't give me it

The rust belt achievement is bugged too for some reason

[noble pasture]

Are the door Kickers trained?

[fervent hinge]

Yeah they have it unlocked

[noble pasture]

Got to unlock the trait

This achievement is a reference to Door Kickers 2

A small tactical game with a cult following

I got a hard time getting here's johnny

[viral knot]

Hi

[stone bay]

Also for The hanged man are you allowed to use the flash launcher?

[noble pasture]

I don't think you are

[tall arch]

oye

[stone bay]

Ok cool and one final thing but can you get achievements in quick play mode?

[quick owl]

If you dont use mods and the achievement isnt commander mode exclusive yes

[vague isle]

quick question

i was close to getting the medal of valor before the update, why were my grade's reset?

[amber dock]

Mods don’t affect achievements, never have, never will.

[stone bay]

Ok cool thanks It's just for some of the achievements like the fool of here's Johnny where I don't want to sacrifice my AIs morale

[quick owl]

You cant get steam achievements while using mods tho

Ik mods dont remove achivements

[amber dock]

Yes you can. I’ve tried it time and time again

[quick owl]

Then what is up with saying "not official score" when i use mods, also isnt that misleading considering people can change AI with mods to be either extremely good or extremely bad?

[amber dock]

That simply is there just like any other game with score system when you use mods. All games have a warning text telling you that mods will give unofficial scores OR may differ from original gameplay because you’re using mods. It doesn’t actually mean anything for Ron wise.

[noble pasture]

Yes

You can get achievements even when using mods

[dusty gale]

Do you guys know how to make suspects move towards you on Xbox when they are down on their knees ?

[tawdry hazel]

Can "Way out west" achievment be done with a softcomplete?

[stone bay]

Look at them and open the command menu

Then it should show up

[amber dock]

I believe yes but you need a C grade minimum for it.

[stone bay]

Also do your teammates have to all carry the revolver as well?

[empty olive]

ive been stuck on spiders web for like, 2 days😭 and i KEEP dying because i forget to check a corner and there’s someone there or some other thing involving me not being careful💀

[wicked charm]

Dude Prescott is on Demon Time For Red Team. Saved My Ass Twice Now.

[stone bay]

You'll learn one day

[amber dock]

If it’s Ai teammates no they can actually use whatever you want them to use. Only you have to use revolver. If it’s real teammates then revolvers only.

[stone bay]

Oh ok that makes it easier

[amber dock]

Same goes for hanged man and beat cop I’m pretty sure

[stone bay]

Ok that's cool

[empty olive]

the other time was i accidentally killed the main suspect🫩 accidentally hit a fatass headshot

[wicked charm]

Dude I was trying to arrest a suspect He Was Complying Right. Then He Spun Around And Tried To Draw. Before I Could Even Shoot Prescott already put a .300 BLK round into his damn head.

[stone bay]

How do I get developers broken watch? I just completed ironman mode, s-ranked every mission on standard? Is the game as broken as the watch? 😂

[eternal crow]

so is the lighting being highly pixelated and shitty looking a bug or was it intentional

[amber dock]

Rank means 0 if someone resigned or died

[wicked charm]

did you lose an officer through death or resigning ?

[amber dock]

And also make sure Ironman was actually turned on

[stone bay]

no one did

[amber dock]

Well clearly something went wrong cause you didn’t unlock it

Either someone got lost or Ironman was not turned on

[stone bay]

I've heard it's glitched. :/ Is that the case or... is it fixed now?

[amber dock]

If it was fixed I wouldn’t have told you about it

[stone bay]

Damn.

[noble pasture]

Can devs fix Ironman not being able to be turned on without a console?

[amber dock]

You mean a controller, and yes it is being investigated.

[stone bay]

Just like the AI when I forget to take away their sidearm ammo so they instantly start executing everyone

[empty olive]

LMAO

[viral knot]

I got it a few hours ago

[queen void]

What was the name of the big hotel mission? I cant find it

I member playing it like a year ago or something

[amber dock]

Sins of the father

[lofty cipher]

One of the subtitle for the c2 breach with no additional stuff like flashbang, the “and” is typed as “amd”

[tacit gull]

If you're talking about checkin' in it's no longer in the game

[queen void]

Why tho?

I installed some mods to replay the whole game

[tacit gull]

It got "replaced" by sins

[queen void]

Oh

[old pivot]

Is NEON an LGBT club like Pulse was?

[tacit gull]

No?

[bitter mason]

no its just very horny

[brittle swan]

when is extra hard coming out i think hard is still too much fun

[bitter mason]

game is still too easy I want to be nuked as I load in

[shut portal]

Try getting s tier on lethal obsesion but you cant peek doors, you have to open them all the way

[crystal steeple]

Ong finally, C2 challenge

[brittle swan]

i kick all doors anyways

i tank the explosions because im simply built differently

[formal aurora]

I assume im not the only one who crashes when a mission starts

[amber dock]

Any error you get with the crash?

[north hamlet]

Greased palms pepperball pistol only

[crystal steeple]

No armour as well

[north hamlet]

Yea that would be brutal lmao

[deep sentinel]

Greased Palms, S Tier, Hard mode, Solo, No long tactical, No short tactical, Bash only, No yell for compliance, No unlocking doors, No helmet, No armour, No anti-flash, No leaning, No crouching

[north hamlet]

Crouch walk only

Crab walk to victory

[brittle swan]

gimme like 10 minutes ezgg

[marble kestrel]

Anyone notice the audio is affected since the update? Weapons and grenades used to sound deafening and had a punch to them, its hard to describe. Now they sound less raw, guns and explosions sound weaker. All my friends have noticed tbe same and wanted to ask since it seems noone else is bothered? Can't see any complaints with a search

And nothing in the known issues channel

[scarlet copper]

maybe you're on the wrong audio mix settings for your setup in the audio options

i think the only major change was adding 5.1 support

[amber dock]

When we getting 5.2 support?

[scarlet copper]

are there real humans out there running two subwoofers

[amber dock]

Uh yes

You guys not gonna add it?

Shit devs

I’m refunding

[charred ginkgo]

we NEED long hk416 😭

[brittle swan]

we need to ability to call in jdam airstrikes on places

[charred ginkgo]

after killing 3 civilians chopper gunner is unlocked

[marble kestrel]

Nah we've all played with the settings, something seems to have changed overall its like sounds lack punch. Has noone else mentioned it? I feel like im losing my mind a little

Readjusting sliders etc helped a bit but its not the same as before

[hardy forge]

The launcher worked great, cleared after a few trys. Thank you so much!

[marble kestrel]

Not here to whine about the update just genuinely curious as noone seems to have mentioned it while like I said, my whole group has noticed

[fervent hinge]

It's easy s rank I told you
Ima do a ironmad run with it

[crystal steeple]

I haven’t noticed much sound changes

[tame osprey]

ngl I still haven't updated to the latest version. Waiting for the graphics to get fixed and for the Mosin Nagant and Kar 98k Mauser mods I have to be updated.

[tidal crown]

Anyone else’s multiplayer just not finding ANY lobbys

[viral knot]

Nope

[tidal crown]

i cant host either idk whats happening

[viral knot]

No like mine is working

[noble pasture]

Is Los Suenos set in pre Cyberpunk times?

[tidal crown]

I know im just adding on to my own setence

[viral knot]

Ok

When was this server made?

[tidal crown]

what?

[viral knot]

What else do you want me to say

[spark bay]

Does repeating a mission count towards missions done so i can get more officers?

[amber dock]

I think it does

[spark bay]

I'll test it out

[fervent hinge]

Does the mission elephant always stress the team?

[viral knot]

I'm pretty sure yeah

[hexed lark]

For some reason it reminds me of the columbine hs shooting

[viral knot]

People who have S ranked it have said their team was stressed after it

[celest herald]

Maybe because it is supposed to be the columbine shooting lol
