[brazen chasm]

👻

[storm belfry]

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHhhhhhhhhhh

[agile merlin]

You know what would be great actually? A 30 person ready or not Lobby.

[brazen chasm]

I feel that would go horrifically wrong

[agile merlin]

Its on a basic map like 23 megabytes per second.
I can imagine. Being a guard and the door gets blasted open and 30 flashbangs get thrown in. That would be terrifying

[storm belfry]

30 flash bang, 30 CS, 30 stingers, then 30 men in various uniforms, armor sets, and insignias

[agile merlin]

You’d see god with all that XD

[storm belfry]

Nobody would see anything, the whole map would look like the opening to Detroit become human

Not to mention EVERYONE getting stuck on eachother

[agile merlin]

Oh yeah

[storm belfry]

So it be a massive conga line all throughout the map

[summer sequoia]

the realistic swat experience

[agile merlin]

30 untrained dumbasses with guns vs the left behind. Who wins?

[storm belfry]

I've heard of that one before (WW1-WW2)

[proper dock]

I almost got VoTD in one try im so sad

[storm belfry]

30 American GIs with Shotguns vs the valley of dolls

[agile merlin]

AINT NO ONE SURVIVING

[proper dock]

one of the suspects started shooting at me whilst stanting in the middle of 2 civvys

[storm belfry]

King Von type shit

[proper dock]

I froze

[storm belfry]

and started break dancing?

[agile merlin]

Im pretty sure almost nobody is innocent on that map

[storm belfry]

That's how I avoid bullets

Very effective to just treat every fight like a NFL quarterback

[proper dock]

doesn't amos have a line something like "I never cared about the kids anyway"

[storm belfry]

We care about the kids ❤️

[agile merlin]

He does. And that’s why I always say body cams on. Shotguns out. Im taking his head off on sight

[storm belfry]

Body cam on, make it a public beheading

[agile merlin]

Good ol USA

[sleek lantern]

Man greased palms pisses me off so bad the design just is so messy

[stoic thistle]

Longest sight lines outside the Port Hokan.

[proper dock]

i gave up on it yesterday and ran it on casual just to move on

[amber dock]

@brazen chasm to answer your question in #🎨ron-screenshots-and-art it’s combination of mods and in game replay system that’s on PC

[worldly ridge]

I love wearing heavy armor. Suspects only shoot legs and arms anyway, what's the point of body protection?

[spiral tundra]

30 men in Hawaiian shirts pulled up to my house bruh what did I do

[worldly ridge]

Trying to finish Relapse after I haven't played on it for a year+

Who the hell designed this hospital?

"Let's connect every single room with each other for no reason"

[spiral tundra]

Well it wasn’t intended for CQB

[spiral tundra]

Probably cuz they gotta rush people around

[worldly ridge]

It wasn't intended for much it seems

[worldly ridge]

Rush a patient through several back offices into the kitchen or what

[spiral tundra]

The nuggets make the pain go away

[storm belfry]

Affirmative

Those nuggets were pretty good

[void jasper]

Still I like that map especially the walkway between the two hospital buildings

[twin musk]

thats on purpose

its meant to be hard

[mighty hemlock]

Guys I'm stuck on Ides of March what do I do?

[junior atlas]

i love that the levels are these messy places with horrible angles. they're like real places that weren't designed to be a FPS game level

[worldly ridge]

Ides of March is the penthouse level, no?

[mighty hemlock]

Where there's these Vets and a bunch of apartments yeah I think

[worldly ridge]

Wedges are your best friend. Go around the circular lobby. Wedge every single door. Clear the central room. Go one-by-one.

C2+Stinger breach all rooms

[mighty hemlock]

Aight

Thank you!

[idle zinc]

Will RON get more firearms?

[mighty hemlock]

I really hope so but I just got the game so I'm clueless

Possibly though

Always more money (Dlcs)

[idle zinc]

For me, I want to see more Bullpup style rifle (IWI Tavor) and magazine shotgun like the (VR80 or Typhoon F12)

[spiral tundra]

Wedge middle
Check laundry first
Be careful of traps
Most apartments will connect to each other, go like that

[stone bay]

it will get one dlc and its done. grab the console cash and disappear plan

[mighty hemlock]

Thank you very much! Although just as you wrote that I finished the mission...

[short crow]

Guys where is the package in the dark water third mission (island one)

[spiral tundra]

Oh lol

Did you enjoy the mission, it’s one of my favourites

[maiden flame]

are any of the dlc wepons good

[spiral tundra]

Yeah
The launchers are amazing for S, and the Mk-V pistol one taps everything

[tulip rampart]

question: does firing an officer make it so you can't get the hermit achievement

[humble mauve]

yes, you can't lose an officer at all (fired, quitting, dying)

[mighty hemlock]

Not alot. I'm new so this might change but it was one of them brick wall levels

[maiden flame]

is that only pc

[spiral tundra]

No

[maiden flame]

what dlc are they

[spiral tundra]

Ah alr
I really enjoyed it on my first run but probs because half of them ran out at me in the start and I popped them

[maiden flame]

i didnt get the launcher neither the mkv

[mighty hemlock]

Good for you I guess.

[spiral tundra]

Most maps you enjoy more as you play more tho

I despised neon due to my ai and me having a massive skill issue

[maiden flame]

how did u get the launcher

[mighty hemlock]

Man I'm scared of those greased palms heard it's a hellhole

[spiral tundra]

I think you have to buy deluxe edition but I’m un sure

[spiral tundra]

We don’t talk about greased palms

[mighty hemlock]

Fair

[mighty hemlock]

Ragebait level?

[digital finch]

Idk if I’m jus getting insanely lucky or what but so far I’ve gotten all arrests on Vines solo with a raider x320 😭

I didn’t go in the map intending to S rank it, I’ve been doing random missions and load outs to practice aiming and reaction and they all just happen to surrender lmao

I even had some shoot at me and they surrendered after a few hits from the 320, that’s crazy work

[sullen agate]

does anyone know if the way out west achievement is bugged right now?

and if its not, is kicking doors allowed?

[spiral tundra]

Kicking doors yes
No shield on back
No NOGs equipped

No tacticals nothing

[sullen agate]

No shield on back?

Is restraining suspects allowed and also is there a certain mission completion rank I need to get?

[deep patio]

God why do I want this Plat trophy so much

Now I'm here trying to S Rank it all

And here's greased fucking palms 💀

[toxic harness]

If you're doing Ironman Mode, do Lethal

[deep patio]

Oh no I did that shit on lethal for Ironman absolutely not working with that hell

I'm on VotD

[storm belfry]

isn't there a thing for S rank Ironman mode?

[deep patio]

Goodness no

[toxic harness]

Nah but that's another set of challenge

But I would say getting Hard S ranks for Quick Play/Multiplayer is enough

[deep patio]

Hard S rank is no joke

[toxic harness]

I would def do Standard S ranks for Ironman, unless it's on missions where it's infamous like Relapse, Hide and Seek, Greased Palms, and few more

Then I'm doing Lethal A ranks

[toxic harness]

Fr but I be getting Hard S ranks for folks as well

Rn I'm so busy that I haven't touched the game

[deep patio]

I'm starting to hate my AI

[spiral tundra]

I mean
I didn’t have too much struggle

[spiral tundra]

You can essentially just play it like standard S but maybe you wanna pre fire rooms instead

[wooden wagon]

any plans for ron to become vr game?

[deep patio]

There is a VR mod being developed

[wooden wagon]

w

[storm belfry]

Me whenever I played the taco restaurant with 7 flash bangs

[wooden wagon]

ron has an amazing base and ive had since beta so was thinking that making a vr mode would be AMAZING

ive noticed a lot of people that do airsoft have been getting into ron

[deep patio]

Should be in the Announcement channel just scroll up abit

[spiral tundra]

I want to do airsoft
Then I hear the MONEY

[wooden wagon]

thx

[wooden wagon]

i do airsoft occasionally... it is so expensive

a gun is like 300

to modify gun its another 100-150

for a mid gun

if you want a good one thats hpa its like 1k+

[toxic harness]

I want to do Airsoft but there's rarely any good locations in my area

I still need to get a primary and extra mags for both of my guns, and I need more gear like a Vest, Goggles and new gloves

[storm belfry]

I just bought an actual beanbag shotgun instead of airsoft

[toxic harness]

no way

[storm belfry]

pro gamer move let's be real chat

does he know?

[raven estuary]

Anyone down for Sleeper Agent achievement? Two of us going for it currently

[haughty oriole]

The memoriam room is underrated

It's not a useful room really but it gives me odd feelings

[tropic gull]

So I know the assault rifles are more or less all the same, but I'm wondering if one caliber does actually edge out the others in terms of performance. I've read on the subreddit that .300 Blackout is the best, compared to 7.62x39, 7.62x51, and 5.56x45

[cosmic mortar]

guys quick question im trying to play commander mode and everytime i get into a mission my loadout resets

why is this happening

[abstract leaf]

I DID NOT KILL ANYBODY IN HIDE AND SEEK AND SMEHOW DID NOT GET THE S

[deep patio]

Greased Palms is gonna make me lose my mind

[crude prism]

Generally .300blk is just better than 7.62x39 and 5.56 because the ARN-18 exists

7.62x51 has use cases depending on difficulty, like you can 1 tap torso most suspects on Standard

@abstract leaf #🎨ron-screenshots-and-art message

You had a civilian incapacitated. No S rank.

6 * 35 = 210

You got 180.

[abstract leaf]

fuck them he deserved

[crude prism]

this spreadsheet has lots of info on it, guns, armor, damage, blah, blah, etc

and in this game pretty much any rifle is gonna put people down, not sure if you're lookin for like the "meta" or whatever but a lot of it's gonna pretty much come down to preference!

7.61 x 551 strongest round, all ammo of the same caliber does same damage regardless of barrel length too.

[quasi coral]

Ah I just wish the SHAW Concepts plate carrier had more accessories

I mean come on, it's got like, 4 mags and that's it

There is nothing else on it

[naive leaf]

hm i kinda like how sleek / simple it is

but yeah would be cool to see more than literally zero different options on it outside of color haha

[quasi coral]

Right? Well, I know it's personal preference but I preferably like "larger" vest with accessories like pouches and sleek packs on the back

Though, I feel as if most of the ones here in Ron other than the Supporter Edition(Which.. Is gone now) just has a lot missing

[naive leaf]

yeah i feel you! doesn't change shit unless you're doing heavy vs light armor so yeah its preference for sure]

[quasi coral]

Mhm, just for the coolsies

[naive leaf]

i like some of the bigger ones, mostly i just have my ai squad situated so its easy to tell them apart - i like to turn off most hud options that you can (on xbox at least)

[tropic gull]

I wish there were more upper body clothes that were long-sleeve but didn't cover your watch

[deep patio]

@abstract leaf an incapacitated or dead civvie/suspect won't let you get an S Rank

Everyone has to be alive

[abstract leaf]

It was not even my people that shot sadly but that's life

[deep patio]

Yeah well the game dgaf

[quasi coral]

I usually give em distinct style changes

Point man gets a cool tan helmet everyone is boring multicam

[deep patio]

Everyone looks the same cause I hate them all equally

Eli, Prescott, King, Swan ?

Hate all 4 of them equally

I look different cause I'm the only one that doesn't bottle it by standing still in an open area 💀

Yes I very much despise my AI 😭

[rigid tartan]

IM FREE IM FREE I FINALLY GOT THE DEVS RUINED WATCH OH MY GOSH.

[quasi coral]

Swan is tier 1

Literally has NEVER failed me

[naive leaf]

yeah i seperate alpha and bravo as assualt and support. so support team dudes (alpha) black tshirts tan plate carriers with minimal stuff on them. bravo just black usually

\with the bigger vests with more shit on them (still light armor tho)

also i put that backwards alpha assualt bravo support

[quasi coral]

Ah, so does support fall in with you and assault quick breaches doors?

I assume that is the case, since in some cases I pull this move

Especially if the element is injured

[tropic gull]

I wish there were more long tacticals

Any idea as to what they could add?

[quasi coral]

Uhh, for long tacticals

Hmm, nope, nothing to my knowledge
The M320 is the only long tactical that I can think of which is already added

[naive leaf]

i try to do some bounding movement type stuff so typically bravo / support doing overwatch type shit and alpha goes in

[quasi coral]

Honestly can't do that with the broken reaction time for ai lol

[naive leaf]

a lot of times i end up with the alpha people while support covers movements get set up, then bravo comes up

[quasi coral]

So you tell em to fall in and focus on doors? Or do they stack in with Alpha but watch the doors

[quasi coral]

Lowkey fire idea I'ma see if I get flanked or not

[naive leaf]

yeah i mean that in a general sense, but i feel like if you set it up right and have dudes in the right spots you it kinda negates enemy reaction time somewhat

if you're trying that style out definitely watch out that the support dudes dont get flanked. mostly i focus on trying to split the map up to isolate different sections. the cover command more useful than i thought it was when i first got the game.

[quasi coral]

Jesus christ I just lost 2 guys because they bugged

[naive leaf]

lmao

[quasi coral]

I can't keep the amazing and hardworking devs thing up since I'm on the verge of running an SA-58 run

[quasi coral]

Obviously get them to focus on the most possible entries

If it's a big room, you wedge all the secondary entries while you breach the main ones, no guys gettin through

[naive leaf]

yeah just kinda point them to limit macro movements across map if possible

[quasi coral]

Always gotta keep it locked down, since this isn't a stealthy in and out mission

[naive leaf]

the game isn't necessarily geared to the bounding movement type stuff the way i set it up, but can work it and i think its a fun way to mix shit up

[quasi coral]

Unfortunately, though like ya said, we can make it work somehow

[naive leaf]

yeah i pretty much just don't go in big rooms and get support dudes to fight from threshold / overwatch room

[quasi coral]

The fun of it is implying totally unrealistic needs and tacticas and it works

[naive leaf]

if theres big rooms*

[quasi coral]

Everytime I have them do that they miss all the shots and get domed

[deep patio]

King though. King is suicidal.

[naive leaf]

lmao

[quasi coral]

So I breach with C4 and 3 stingers(including me and the launcher) and then we charge

[quasi coral]

King wants to die

[deep patio]

Prescott and Eli are blind but Swan honestly is the only one that isn't an idiot

[quasi coral]

Because unlike everyone on the team

He has a theoretical name that can't be used as a name

[naive leaf]

yeah tbf to do the bounding idea there is kinda a decent amount of like micro control of the squads

[quasi coral]

Like Judge, so he is special

[quasi coral]

I can't do that, I've lost all my touch

[deep patio]

King overextends like he's invincible

WHICH NO YOU ARE NOT THE HEAVY ARMOR WITH STEEL PLATE ISNT MAGIC

[naive leaf]

but ive been approaching it with the idea that if i have to shoot i already made a bad decision

[quasi coral]

😭🙏

[quasi coral]

That's a good mindset, my only mindset is that if my teammates get shot on sight, I might've been going too aggressive

Keep the peace, I mean, if you noticed already, early on enemies aren't TOO aggressive, but after the gunfire they'll start to shoot at you quicker

Ah and that stupid bug where the point man stands infront of the door for 3 seconds and another teammate breaches instead

[naive leaf]

yeah i mean basically I try to set up a big as L

the support dudes are at the end with big rifles and the assualt dudes more mobile and shorter rifles or whatever feels right

[naive leaf]

assualt dudes are vertical axis, support dudes horizontal zxis*

[quasi coral]

I usually have the "Gold" breach sets

So theres only 1 guy with the really short gun(7.5)?

And a second guy with a 10.5 in-case the point man is injured or there is a split element breach

The rest gets SR-16's, they have high muzzle velocity, in which the 5.56 can excel

Deals with armor well and in longer ranges and big rooms with potential of a gunfight, it's really helpful

[placid kindle]

https://tenor.com/view/renderforest-oridux-gif-20335560

Aw cmon gif ain’t giffing

Welp

:(

It’s not like this is an 18+ game or anything

It’s totally rated PG

And should be played by families

And gifs should be banned because it’s PG

(If your a dumbass like me I’m being sarcastic)

[naive leaf]

so apparently there is no muzzle velocity in the game or at least in a way that makes a difference - couldn't find a definitive answer from ron website but pretty sure its hitscan exfcepy for bean bag and launchers, ammo of the same caliber does same damage regardless of barrell length - which is lame lmao

could be wrong for sure, but looked around and that what i found: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1d89lpFDA9lo_v13iBlnhtuA6DvuUnKfPaeo0d4RBGJ4/edit?pli=1&gid=1878248973#gid=1878248973 this shit was super useful since the game doesn't tell you much of anything on how stuff works lmao

[faint saddle]

I think Judge is a robot. Failed runs are just him running simulations of the mission beforehand.

Yeah yeah, this is a very grounded and realistic world, but you cannot convince me that man goes home to a family at the end of the day. Judge is disappointed the department can’t legally let him work 24 hour shifts.

Calling it now, the story ends with him peeling the flesh off his arm to reveal a metal skeleton underneath.

[storm belfry]

You can't just work 24h shifts! You know how many labor laws we're breaking with that!?

[faint saddle]

They just plug him in somewhere in the basement at the end of the day. The department is strapped for cash cause they gotta maintain the server costs of storing Judge’s mission data.

[uncut widget]

Civilian down in basement is "regulator" for Judge's stress from Hard ass missions

[faint saddle]

Judge’s stress is just the literal stress on his CPU. He has to come back to the station and vent the excess heat in a cold room.

Riding in the APC with him after missions is a nightmare, like sitting in an oven.

The reason there’s no option to go shirtless is cause then we’d see the access panels on the back of his chassis.

[storm belfry]

We can't go shirtless cause Judge is just an absolute fucking unit

He can't get shirts off

They just glue em on

[faint saddle]

He has to have them sewn onto his body by an assistant like a knight putting on armor.

[storm belfry]

Exactly

[faint saddle]

At first I was just meme’ing, but now I’m sticking to it. Judge is a robot confirmed.

[storm belfry]

Judge is peak masculinity, like Brock

[uncut widget]

Isn't he just super human?

[faint saddle]

I do know about The Deep Lore, but saying he’s a robot is way funnier to me.

[uncut widget]

Robot can't slap suspect's face with personal intentions🫃

[faint saddle]

TOC:”Civilians have been taken hostage!”
Judge:loud Automaton anger noise

[storm belfry]

@uncut widget @faint saddle what if Judge was just like a fuckin baki character or some stupid shit and we've been over thinking it all this whole time

[faint saddle]

Naaah if he were a Baki character he’d be able to do much wilder stuff. At least in my playthroughs the guy gets domed from like a room away. I think in Baki someone literally moves their brain out of the way of a sniper’s bullet.

[uncut widget]

Then he would just touch Postal office and he'll save every civilian out there and explode every suspect by nuke radiation by one touch (all of this happened for 0.4 sec) (kinda slow for Baki universe)

[storm belfry]

Have you seen like a standard guy in baki's prisons

They're all jacked

[faint saddle]

“If God had intended for you to live, He would not have created me,” says Judge, a man who definitely understands RoE.

[storm belfry]

Judge arresting Amos Val on Valley of the Dolls like "every day from now on in your life is one I'm blessing upon you." and as the saying goes, Judge Arrestith Judge shootith

[uncut widget]

What a skibidi sigma american psycho tyler poopden type of quotes?!??!?!

[faint saddle]

Judge absolutely had a Punisher sticker on his car. He was told to remove it cause it made the department look bad.

[storm belfry]

Judge the type of guy to knock your lights out for saying that

[storm belfry]

DEFINITELY blue stripe and all

[toxic harness]

He's a man who is uncorruptable compared to others. He is the man who would do anything to bring order to chaos

[uncut widget]

I have a best lawyer from court house in Roblox, so I'mma sue him

[storm belfry]

Judge HAS to be driving a Ford F150 super heavy that's lifted

[toxic harness]

Basically our hero, yet he is also in conspiracy where he was part of the USIA which he was put as a SWAT officer to be tested

[storm belfry]

Whenever has Judge had anyone stop him after he shoots a civilian?

[faint saddle]

If you bring up that truck drivers and lumberjacks have a higher on-the-job mortality rate than cops, he shoots you.

[uncut widget]

Well he is super human, maybe no by physical characteristics byt mental resilence

[storm belfry]

Not even, he just doom slayers your ass

[toxic harness]

His will is too strong that helps him manage very stressful situation that other LSPD mates would quit on the spot

[storm belfry]

I always imagine him as like the reacher

[uncut widget]

4 guns from your 4 officers in team😄 👍

[faint saddle]

He sweeps you with his left leg, and uses his right hand to punch you into the dirt.

Judge is an outlier when it comes to police DV statistics, cause he doesn’t have a wife to beat.

Which locations that you want for RON?

[faint saddle]

Oh definitely more compact, claustrophobic levels like the cabin in the woods. I wanna be able to hear the floorboards creak around me.

[storm belfry]

The statics don't include him since he does like 200% more of the stupid shit in the department

[uncut widget]

Some Government building that has been attacked by prob same terrorist organization as Hand

[toxic harness]

I would wish to see The Hand going more ballistic than Qadamah's orders

Imagine a store where few of the Hand shot up as there is a whole ass protest outside

[storm belfry]

Another hospital with Qadamah

[faint saddle]

They tried to program him to do the cool Robocop pistol twirl, but he doesn’t have a Fun setting and is thus unable to feel joy. The most he can do is wear the Hawaiian shirt on Fridays.

[toxic harness]

But the mission includes killing him once and for all for FISA

[quasi coral]

Oh no it's not about the damage dw

[uncut widget]

"Madness is the repeated algorithm that always keep going without stopping in processing"

[storm belfry]

then it turns into trying to escape as he had a dead man's switch or some shit

So essentially it increases consistency and bullet speed

[storm belfry]

A whole new dlc about hunting a cult of personality for a infamous killer with a cult of personality that guards his sites like their holy sites.

Techinally Hide and Seek is like that

Smuggling guns, drugs and women

[storm belfry]

I bet it wouldn't even make the paper's in El Paso

[dark basin]

This, to be honest. Would much prefer the mundane shit that SWAT teams actually go to, like having a 6 hour standoff with a barricaded suspect, only to find that he killed himself 6 hours ago

[storm belfry]

That's small door into a massive venue

[toxic harness]

Also 3 Letter Traid does weapon smuggling

[uncut widget]

All because he stepped on broken piece of glass and because of the drug addiction he didn't notice and just bleeded out

[storm belfry]

A series of side missions like that

Just Mexican stand offs

[faint saddle]

Unfortunately I think if we want more “push the envelope” missions, the team would have to be brave and actually delve into something political.

Take the nightclub level for example. The club in game is just kinda, debaucherous? It’s attacked by the Hand in retaliation for US strikes in Yemen. But the massacre it’s based on, the Pulse Nightclub shooting, wasn’t an attack by a trained sleeper cell—it was a lone gunman, radicalized through the Internet, shooting up a gay nightclub.

That kind of tooth is kind of sidestepped by a lot of the game’s missions.

[toxic harness]

I want to see a mechanic where when trying to rescue a depressed civilian, there are these threshold where if you are too loud like gun shots to the defenders would make him more tempting. But being quiet can make the civilian more compliant

[storm belfry]

a whole dlc that's just "Los Suenos, back in the day" and have it where you get like patrol officer and old SWAT cosmetics

[dark basin]

Yeah, and some missions where it's just one house and you're raiding a felon with a weapon and LSPD detectives requested D-Platoon's assistance cus surprise surprise, the suspect lives in 213 park

"please can you put your hands up sir?" - Judge before using C2 on the door

[dark basin]

Atleast he said please

[toxic harness]

"THE CIVILIAN IS AT THE EDGE! SHUT UP AND GET HIM BEFORE HE JUMPS!"

[dark basin]

"Hit him with a taser!"

[toxic harness]

Like I want more than barricaded suspect missions with a mix of few active shooter and raids

[storm belfry]

My teammate: I'LL CATCH EM!

[storm belfry]

Uni bomber house raid

[dark basin]

Yup, don't need the overtop missions, simple ones will do as well. I can already think of a few already

[agile merlin]

I never was able to find out how to use C2 correctly

[storm belfry]

Or just a homeless shelter used to traffic people

[toxic harness]

It's just on top of the door handle

[storm belfry]

I think you put it on the door

[dark basin]

House is filled with explosives like that cult apartment in SWAT4

[agile merlin]

Is it certain doors?

[toxic harness]

any door

[agile merlin]

I approach the door but I never get the input to do so

[storm belfry]

A house that's just like a bunch of a fuckin trip wires

[toxic harness]

Lethal Obsession and Stolen Valor

[agile merlin]

I just wanna send a door flying into a motherfucker. You know what I’m saying?

[storm belfry]

❤️

[dark basin]

Hell no, no thanks

[toxic harness]

But yeah I would look forward for missions with a sniper, and crisis prevention missions

[dark basin]

Airstrike that house at that point

[storm belfry]

Gotta throw in some rust shotgun traps and have only one suspect

[toxic harness]

Would really make anyone a SWAT

[storm belfry]

You know

[dark basin]

I suddenly though of a mission where a SWAT team responded after a police chase, that would be interesting ngl

[storm belfry]

What about a shooting at a mall

[toxic harness]

I really want a mall mission

Or a movie theater shootout

[storm belfry]

Some shit outta L4D2

[toxic harness]

Crisis prevention mission will for sure punish COD players for going no mercy

[dark basin]

Bring a shit ton of Gas grenades, hotbox the shit out of the movie theatre and enter in after the gas settles

[storm belfry]

You could make it an abandoned mall that's full of hobos and it has like a drug manufacturing plant in it like twisted nerve or like a Neon Tomb like mission

[toxic harness]

That is similar to 3LT

[dark basin]

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

[toxic harness]

PUTIN WAS A COMMANDER?! (ik he used to be a kgb guy before becoming president)

[toxic harness]

So basically the Hand decided to shoot up the movie theater and the LSPD (or Spetsnaz) showed up to stop the attack

Plus that whole attack is 4 days wtf

[storm belfry]

Have a mission that starts with a part of the building exploding giving you an extra entrance while filling a section with smoke making you and the suspects have lower visibility

[dark basin]

Bring in cs gas for maximum realism

[toxic harness]

That should be the achievment objective

[storm belfry]

I think it's called black Monday in Russia, it's a elementary school that gets just destroyed in the most absurd way by the Russian government

[dark basin]

Beslan school siege?

[storm belfry]

Idk for sure

But probably yeah

[dark basin]

Elementary school gave it away, and jesus christ that was a fucking abomination

[toxic harness]

"Moving Photo" - The Hand had finally decided to show up and then shot up the movie theater. This time Qadamah is absent from the mission, likely due to being exiled from the whole organization for his terrible performance of a leader. Anyway, another man had chose to shoot up the theater to tell US troops to get out of Yemen. By getting rid of US troops, meaning we should punish them to death sentence. Crazy right? But there are hostages there which are bait for us to go in and die in their "hands"

[dark basin]

Tanks to active hostage situations

[dark basin]

Honestly, just execute Qadamah atp do NOT let bro live

[toxic harness]

Special Objectives: Arrest 3 Suspects and Destroy Live Stream

[dark basin]

How about a Florida man map

[toxic harness]

Achievements:

• A Short Film: Earn C+ in "Moving Photo"
• Chemical Agent: Complete "Moving Photo" by only using CS Gas and Gas Mask

[dark basin]

Diabolical second achievement 💀

[toxic harness]

First Sleeper Agent, then Chemical Agent

[dark basin]

I would also like to see some manhunt situations, one where officers are searching for an outstanding suspect in a small city block or small neighborhood right after the suspect ran to escape, and with the assistance of police helicopters and officers on the ground that would update where the suspect would be

[toxic harness]

I would believe the Hand class him a tratior or a wimp when he got LSPD stopping their attacks

But I NEED MORE HAND ATTACKS, LEFT BEHIND CONTINUING TERRORIZING THE AMERICAN GOVERNMENT, AND MORE EX-USIA DELULUE SHIT!

[dark basin]

USIA is already 0-3 against Judge lol

[toxic harness]

Lmao

but I NEED MORE

[naive leaf]

looking for different load outs to try to switch shit up. smg's outside mp7 or p90 that are fun

[toxic harness]

10mm SMGs like MP5 10MM and UMP-5

Or do Standard Mode and use any 9mm smgs (unless it's Elephant)

[naive leaf]

ok yeah ive done those, i like the burst fire settings! thanks man 🙂

[lost inlet]

MP5A3, MP5A2, UMP-45 and MPX. Those are pretty decent options.

[torpid onyx]

9mm/45acp smgs are a bit flakey on their consistancy though if you're running later missions with armoured targets though

I prefer using the mp7/p90 because of their 4.6/5.7 bullets though since I carry the five seven I usually just use a rifle/shotgun

[gray wren]

Is this just happening on me or is this happening on you too guys let me know. Every time when I launch game, it opens much slower and takes too long to see VOID and menu screen.😐

Before it will open like in seconds but now it takes minutes... for last 30 minute I am waiting to see the game dude... its all black screen for nothing

Performance dropped with last updates. They need to check it that

[quasi coral]

I think the game crashed if you were waitin 30 minutes

If it's longer than 5 minutes it's probably crashed

[proper dock]

Good news

I S ranked VotD

Second try

[leaden acorn]

So doing my first try and iron man mode run any advice to a perfect run?

[proper dock]

Flash launcher is your friend so far for me

[leaden acorn]

first thing i made sure to have
best thing ever

[high jasper]

is greased palms the hardest fucking map for hard mode s rank?

[grave crown]

yea imo

[spiral tundra]

I think 3LT is harder
But that’s dependent on spawns

[grave crown]

yea

[spiral tundra]

Sometimes they all spawn in one place and it’s hard
Or they’re spread out and it’s fairly easy

[grave crown]

Both took a lot of attempts.

[high jasper]

dude oh my god i cant fucking do this can i have tips on greased palms

[spiral tundra]

I got greased palms 2nd try with a full squad
Still can’t do 3LT with a full squad

[high jasper]

full squad is ai right

[spiral tundra]

Take the outside first
And the post offices outsdide

[grave crown]

its harder for me to do with squad for some reason

[spiral tundra]

No I did on multiplayer

[high jasper]

if you do it on multiplayer does the s rank also show on your singleplayers

[grave crown]

like teammates yells at suspecst and they immediately become aggressive

[high jasper]

nvm

[grave crown]

makes game much harder

[spiral tundra]

Not on commander

[grave crown]

no

not in commander mode but it will show in quick play

[spiral tundra]

If you want to do it on multiplayer go to #🔎looking-for-players I got a whole squad from that

[high jasper]

@spiral tundra have you done greased palms solo?

[grave crown]

or u can just use mod lol

[spiral tundra]

For standard I did duo
Hard 5 stack

[high jasper]

whty the fuck is the ai so stupid i tell them to restrain and they just stand there

[spiral tundra]

The ai is dumb

[grave crown]

yea they are stupid

[spiral tundra]

Whenever I tried s with them they headshotted

Or died upon opening a door

[high jasper]

if they see a hostage to they shoot too?

[grave crown]

yea

[spiral tundra]

You gotta throw a flash for hostages

[grave crown]

they most likely shoot the hostage

[spiral tundra]

Flash makes them drop the hostage

So just go for that

[grave crown]

or give them flash launcher

flash launcher is the best weapon for teammates

imo

[spiral tundra]

It’s almost impossible to use with AI
They get friendly fired somehow

[grave crown]

u dont get penalty for that

u only get penalty when u hit them

[spiral tundra]

They can’t friendly fire?

[grave crown]

so u need to use beanbag or smt

[grave crown]

they do the dmg each other but thats not a big dmg

[spiral tundra]

I get friendly fire when I use flash launcher with AI even if I didn’t directly hit them

[grave crown]

yea thats because u used flash launcher

u get penalty if u hit them but ai teammates hitting each other doesnt give u penalty

[spiral tundra]

True
They’ve got flash goggles anyway

It’s also kinda funny when suspects just run right past you and don’t shoot

Where you going bro

[grave crown]

ai doesnt get effect of gas, flash, stinger anything

[grave crown]

yea lol

just run pass away

[naive urchin]

erm does anyone know what tactical to put on one of my loadouts ,alpha is breacher bravo is a pointman delta is also a breacher I have no clue what to put charlie (and yes I'm a beginner I haven't even started 23 megabytes)

please guys 🥺

PLEASE

[leaden acorn]

alpha shield
beta flash launcher
charlie breacher (shotgun or ram works)
delta shield or mirror
if you put shield on delta put mirror on self

[naive urchin]

Self is more of a non lethal btw

[leaden acorn]

no need for two breachers imo just put some c2 on delta or charlie

[leaden acorn]

it’s my personal load out
i use tac shield a bunch but k find no use for it if my guys are going in first

you can see my loadout in #🎨ron-screenshots-and-art (just realized i took ss of the customization section 🥀)

[naive urchin]

yeah I was kinda confused

[leaden acorn]

that’s mb
but your load out is load out
repeat missions to see what works and what doesn’t
work
took me hours to get the right load out

[naive urchin]

Maybe I might mix your loadout with my previous loadout

[leaden acorn]

see what works
two breachers could work if you do a split up strategy
i only have one because i do all together

[naive urchin]

So I put mirrorgun on self with beanbag gun and the trpl pistol armor is ceramic for alpha I put a battering ram with the m1014 shotgun fiveseven pistol and basically all my ais have heavy armour steel bravo is tac shield mp7 trpl still a bit clueless for delta and charlie

for officer perks delta has the intimidator perk Charlie is nutritionist and alpha breacher bravo Armorer

[leaden acorn]

try and get a paramedic on the team it’ll help in later missions

[naive urchin]

Hmmm I was thinking two negiotars one Armorer and one nutritionist

[leaden acorn]

1 armor 1 breacher 1 paramedic 1 veteran (veteran can be switched for your personal preference) is what i run

[naive urchin]

What about ts

[leaden acorn]

wouldn’t suggest bean bag imo
i use a GA416 with a G19 as my side arm
Alpha and Delta run the same
but all of them have the same side arm (G19)
Beta has a MPX sub
and charlie has the M1014

though i haven’t used non lethal that much so i can’t say if the bean bag is good or not

also what kind of run are you going for
trying to get used to the game?
shoot first ask questions later?
get them to surrender (going for a rank)?
or something different?

[naive urchin]

Rank

[leaden acorn]

ok so best you can do is A+ rank with out any non lethals
that usually means a couples suspects arrested. i believe you can get A+ with them all dead but i don’t remember. To get S rank all the suspects have to be alive.
Now in my personal opinion don’t do commander mode for Rank. Use quick play for that.

[naive urchin]

I got A rank for killing them all

from what I remember

[naive urchin]

hmm okay

[leaden acorn]

ya what i thought
but you can never get S doing that
gotta use all non lethals
and a bean bag CAN kill someone

[naive urchin]

I am well aware

I did some fair amount of research

[leaden acorn]

finding out the hard way sometimes is the best.

quick play is easier cause you don’t gotta worry about stress and all that and you can infinitely do missions without consequences blah blah.

i’d suggest qp for rank but it’s yo to you man
no one is stopping you
all a matter of if you’re ready (hehe)

[naive urchin]

I kinda wanna just blitz through the campaign tbh

I'm not a big fan of the stress thing

[naive urchin]

any loadouts?

[leaden acorn]

for just blitzing it?

[naive urchin]

yes

[leaden acorn]

fast firing guns, lots of ammo

and do qp for that cause all your guys will quit after the second mission doing that

so use submachine guns and or rifles with automatic on

[naive urchin]

I was shocked to see one of my guys go into a crisis already after two missions

I died on the first mission cus I got ambushed 😭

[leaden acorn]

yaaa kill people and or they beg shot does a lot

[leaden acorn]

ya that doesn’t help either

[naive urchin]

Hmm so far all my officers are content

[leaden acorn]

had 3 guys quit after a mission

[naive urchin]

only one of them is in a crisis and I can't send him to therapy

[leaden acorn]

slots full for therapy?

[torpid onyx]

damn just S ranked hard hunger strike in like 3 minutes in pubs

[naive urchin]

yup

[torpid onyx]

(the rotary flash launcher is op)

[leaden acorn]

type shit

[leaden acorn]

ya he’ll be fineeeee just like don’t get your other guys into crisis before the therapy slots open

[torpid onyx]

we had legit like 6 guys upstairs and we were all screaming trying to manage all of them so they wouldn't get up and try kill one of us cos 6 guys all together surrendering isn't a good scenario

[leaden acorn]

i haven’t played pubs in a hot minute
every time i do
i get a TK a new player or a guy who thinks he’s good and dies first fire fight

i gotta start trying lobbies here

[torpid onyx]

95% of pubs suck

it's guys who will just shoot any mf who they see because they're trigger happy and won't call in kills or pick up guns

[naive urchin]

Should I run heavy armour for self

[leaden acorn]

yes

ai love hitting clips on you

i do heavy armor for all my guys (specifically because i’m doing the iron man achievement run)

[naive urchin]

Ok I'm gonna go for the second mission

[leaden acorn]

good luck man

[naive urchin]

Intimidator with the flash tac is okay right?

[leaden acorn]

it’s your team
you do you

everything is your own choice
i gave my personal preference but im no where near good at the game

[leaden acorn]

but that sounds good for that mission

haven’t don’t 23mgb in a minute anyway

[naive urchin]

I dird

I lost like two officers

bro 💔

Ok the one in the crisis dird

the rest are stressed

[torpid onyx]

me watching some guy refuse to get down after 7 beanbags to the chest 🥀

[faint saddle]

Heeeey I just beat all the main missioooons! Holy cow, I never wanna see another warehouse as long as I live! 😭

[toxic harness]

You should Hard S rank

[faint saddle]

To HELL with that.

[toxic harness]

You will do it

[faint saddle]

I’m fine on Standard, thank you! And I’ll get to S-ranking in my own time—I spent hours tonight trying to scrape above a B on the hospital.

[toxic harness]

Are you on pc or console?

[faint saddle]

Console.

[toxic harness]

Standard or Deluxe?

[faint saddle]

Standard. I don’t have any DLCs.

[toxic harness]

Some dlcs are easy but some wish you're in therapy

[torpid onyx]

man idk why some people run public matches on hard like brother nobody in in this lobby can handle a hard level this is pubs 🙏

and then they'll also die in 20 seconds

[faint saddle]

Yeah I got enough of that as is.
The issue is I just find it so much more manageable going off on my own and leaving my team at the start, without them blocking doorways or taking fire from a hallway while clearing a room.

But then I’ll just get worn down by the level and die 3/4s through, or I’ll get swamped.

[toxic harness]

I like to do Hard Lethal runs. I could do some Hard Non Lethals unless it's Greased Palms, Hide and Seek, Relapse or 3LT

[faint saddle]

I’ll get to Non-Lethal eventually. For now I’ll just stick with my 870 and 357.

[toxic harness]

well have fun, but skill issue for not attending Hard mode missions

[torpid onyx]

bruh I swear I just had 3 beanbags not register and the mfers proceeded to 1 tap me

[naive urchin]

Twisted nerve.....

[dark stone]

What's the general approach to even doing S rank on hide and seek?

Cuz I usually use beanbag shotgun but on hide and seek it seems they're in high and far places making it harder to use the bean bag shotgun

[gray zealot]

pepper gun

[dark stone]

Ngl dude I could not figure out the pepper guns for the life of me, they just keep coming at me even after I mag dump them

[quasi coral]

All the AI with heavy armor and steel

All of em carrying pepper guns and wear a gas mask while you're at it

Carry a beanbag with you, but make sure to send them out first

If you're going solo, goodluck

[dark stone]

Shit alr I'll try that out, thanks

[quasi coral]

No problem, and with the new pepperball pistols

Give the team lead a shield!!

Or give you a shield

[dark stone]

What if I rock a shield and give my team pepper guns?

[quasi coral]

That'll do fine, if you think you're the casualty problem, then use the shield

I made it through with this loadout, just remember to give yerselves tons of flashes

As your primary, have the flash launcher

Just don't use it close range..

[dark stone]

Why not?

[dry horizon]

friendly fire

[dark stone]

now that you mention that, I can imagine it

[torpid onyx]

hard mode?

[torpid onyx]

also honestly pepperball pistol sucks it has 6 shots which is barely enough to even entice a guy to surrender

and you'll essentially have to use the whole mag for each guy so you'll be carrying like 17 mags of pepperball

and if it's hard mode pepperball is just useless

[torpid onyx]

I'm a shield user so most of the time I can get away with manipulating my engagement range by covering open space with my shield so I can reposition closer without just getting gunned down

[dark stone]

Is pepperball rifle any better than the pistol, not in like magazine wise

[torpid onyx]

idk

I would assume it's the same stuff just better velocity and mag capacity

[crisp notch]

L

[quasi coral]

Well funnily enough you can't hold the pepperball launcher while using the shield so the pistol at best is better than nothing

[normal tinsel]

Yeah the rifle is 20 rounds in a mag, bullet velocity is unnoticeable, it's just the time to wait for them to start coughing and get stunned that sucks about it

[storm belfry]

Two Bean bags, rest pepper ball, word of advice, don't fight head on, the massive group of enemies out front of the warehouse are better handled from behind with flashes, and slow movements, if you move around rather than a spear head tactic it can usually reduce casualties and be much less painful in the long run

[verbal meteor]

can you still get the achievement for both the hermit and ironman if you do it on casual difficulty?

[dry horizon]

"standard or higher"

[verbal meteor]

tyy

[amber dock]

For future reference, all achievements in Ron need to be obtained on standard or higher

No achievement can be done on casual

[verbal meteor]

okaa gotcha

[torpid onyx]

vruh I was doing an S rank and the last suspect shot the last civillian in crossfire

genuinely so annoying

[buoyant pecan]

Ready

[leaden acorn]

or Not?

[leaden acorn]

would mag dumped

[viscid nexus]

has anyone heard from the actual Void Dev Team since the online lobby hosting has been broken? what is so freaking hard about switching to a dedicated lobby format that literally tactical co-op games from the early 2000s had? its absurd tbh

not even asking Void to run their own dedicated lobbys, let US run them would make a big difference

[torpid onyx]

man it's super annoying when your AI teamates start just screaming for no reason and alert the whole building and put everyone on the defensive

[toxic harness]

Indeed

[torpid onyx]

and also whenever they breach with gas they don't even give it time to gas up the room so it's essentially useless cos they're already in there fighting before it has a chance to incap people (when it sometimes works)

[viscid nexus]

lets be honest cs gas is useless rn

[torpid onyx]

bruh I was doing hard S rank on the meth lab map and the final suspect can FULL SPRINT around a corner and stabbed me in 1 stab though a vest

I tried to shoot but cos I had beanbags I put my gun up when he came around the corner cos he was too close

[buoyant pecan]

CS gas is slightly better than it was a month or two ago

But not as good as it was before that update

[torpid onyx]

sometimes it just won't work at all

I liked it so much and now it's like useless

[buoyant pecan]

TOC to entry team, be advised: suspect is throwing bowling balls at civilians at a rapid speed

[torpid onyx]

ive also noticed sometimes if your AI teamates throw gas on deploy command sometimes it just disappears into Narnia and doesn't ignite and work

asked a teamate to deploy a flashbang in a room and he proceeded to sprint intro the room gun down and die and not throw a flashbang

I was pointing straight through the doorway he had no reason to run it

[void jasper]

It’s probably a bug, I’m always changing the default commands for the ai so I don’t have to fish around for the right one but sometimes even after I save the change they still perform the old default

Queuing up commands for the AI is fun, executing at just the right moment is always satisfying. Reminds me of rainbow 6 waay back in the day

[torpid onyx]

also genuinely idk what the Devs were cooking up when they made the command wheel it's so dumb because you just get completely immobilised and it's so annoying to spin the wheel around getting your commands

it was so clunky to use

[void jasper]

Yeh it’s got a clunky way of trying to select from the sub menus too

[wicked charm]

Use the command list much better

[torpid onyx]

yeah i do

I just felt like mentioning it when my game decided to auto swap my settings to command wheel one time and it was horrid (so I swapped it back to list)

same with how on controller your default tactical wheel is set to control with left stick so you can't move while grabbing tactical unless you swap it to right stick so you can move

[wicked charm]

My bad man I was just trying to help out lol. I can imagine how frustrating it is to have your settings swap like that.

[cedar mulch]

Will Void just cash out and disappear after releasing the next DLC?

[languid creek]

Feels like it

🥀

No news about anything other than body pillows. DLC in 2026 but it could be December 2026 for all we know. And 3 missions won’t hold people off for long. We absolutely NEED multiple variations for each mission. Bomb defusal, active shooter, hostage rescue, should be options for most if not all maps.

It’s satisfying to clear the maps but there’s not enough variety to keep it fresh. After a few runs you know where the enemies will be, where the civilians will be. If you need a challenge you can play on hard but then the AI just aimbots you while your ai squad gets mowed down.

[cedar mulch]

Given their attitude toward the game, I believe they're not far from cashing out and leaving it behind for good.

If this game has become utterly worthless, I can't imagine why VOID wouldn't abandon it.

[spiral tundra]

Apparently it’s early 2026

[cedar mulch]

By then, the game will obviously be dead.

Because Void is clearly part of a subpar development team. They can't even manage two major updates this year.

[spiral tundra]

They’re an indie team making a detailed game lol

[cedar mulch]

Compared to the game it used to be. It's been completely ruined.

[sharp pecan]

Pls can someone not be bissed to tell me if RoN is worth it

[upper shore]

Get Helldivers instead 💪

[sharp pecan]

na thats not what i want

not what i am asking

[spiral tundra]

I got it a couple weeks ago
I love it so

[sharp pecan]

you on xbox or pc

[spiral tundra]

Xbox

[sharp pecan]

and its good yea? no bugs?

i saw a vid and it was bad

[spiral tundra]

There’s some but I rarely encounter them

[sharp pecan]

yea ofc all games have but i mean this vid i saw was bad

[real peak]

Why is relapse so hard?

[toxic swallow]

the Tactician achievement is bugged, ive done the first mission numerous times now with only flashbangs and nothing else and im not getting it

[sharp pecan]

Why get RoN:
• Tactical, not chaotic
• Realistic SWAT ops
• Heavy emotional tone
• Solo or co-op
• Missions change every time
• Low price, high replay
• 20% off now on Xbox
yes or no

should i get it

[leaden acorn]

yes
i can’t tell you how long i waited for it to come to console
wish-listed it the second it was announced on the ps store

[sharp pecan]

thanks

i takt it has a hell yes

[leaden acorn]

hell ya
best game i’ve purchased

also love the norris pfp

[sharp pecan]

thanks

[torpid onyx]

the only other milsims on Xbox are essentially insurgency and arma (but you can't mod Arma on console)

[sharp pecan]

i will be 100% sure to get it ASAP before the sale ends

[foggy rock]

I haven’t played any other game since getting RON

[torpid onyx]

there's not much competition in the milsim market especially good pve games

[leaden acorn]

i was at 24 hours played by day 5 of owning it

[toxic swallow]

Zero Hour is pretty cool too but that's not on console sadly

[foggy rock]

Is Arma on Xbox?

[sharp pecan]

yes

[foggy rock]

Huhh never knew that

[torpid onyx]

arma 3 and reforger
actually turns out it's just reforger

[native cosmos]

Are there innocents in valley of dolls? (Hint: no)

[torpid onyx]

Janey*

[vocal plaza]

why is valley of the dolls not available in my quick play ready or not

[viscid nexus]

the online co-op is bugged af rn but otherwise its not bad esp w some mods

[viscid nexus]

for real...ppl are still playing SWAT 4 a game made in 2005 lol

[viscid nexus]

ya the fact there isn't a built in mission modifier...to give the same dozen maps or so some variation...by now we all know where the suspects will generally be etc etc - its boring af at this point....there should be more randomness to suspect locations/hostage situations/bombs - any sort of variance to keep us on our toes.

[desert island]

ready or not

[viscid nexus]

sadly thats why these tactical realism based games never have the long term juice like COD/BF/R6 series (r6 used to be similar to swat 4, when it dropped a game like R6 Ravenshield for example) nowadaways its all about appealing to pre-teens spending their parents $ on DLC store aesthetic garbage and playing "military" games like cod/bf that are the Exact opposite of realism....its a mf sad state around mil sim/tactical simulators in general...literally the glory days were back around swat 4/r6 ravenshield imo at least...ever since then its been a shxt show

[solemn patio]

What if they added homemade guns to certain criminals in ready or not?? Like the luty and slam fire shotguns and other hardware store guns

[spiral tundra]

Icl it would be more realistic seeing some with hunting rifles

Not the rare guns they like to use

[solemn patio]

Itd be more accurate for them to have glocks with switches and sawed offs and ar pistols and draco ak pistols

[solemn patio]

Grammatical nightmare I know

[solemn patio]

Like the Luty 9mm smg

Maybe make it horribly inaccurate

[spiral tundra]

Also just common AR-15 platforms and hunting rifles like rugers

[spiral tundra]

They use sawed offs

[solemn patio]

I know

Just not dracos and stuff

Like I want a guy one handing a draco and hitting everyone but the target hes tryna shoot

Itd be funny as hell

[worn dirge]

Whats should i do if im out of ammo for both my primary and secondary, and my pepper spray is out too?

[viscid nexus]

they should have made the game globally based & not limited to just swat, should have had tier 1 units across the allied nations or something along those lines...then you could have had mission sets from the US to North Africa fighting Al Shabaab...would have given the game alot more depth

[worn dirge]

It's a indie studio its need to start small

[viscid nexus]

ya well at this rate this is it, they arent delving any deeper imo

[proper dock]

It would be cool if enemy guns jammed on some of the missions

[spiral tundra]

They are..

[proper dock]

Like Dust Belt and the methhouse mission the early game

[viscid nexus]

look @ what one guy was able to build with Zero Hour

tbh once void parted ways with eezstreet the dev team went to shitville

[void jasper]

Damn greased palms really is hard

[proper dock]

correct

[void jasper]

In a good way

[proper dock]

i have given up on greased palms

[void jasper]

I’ve been waitin for an excuse to do the whole extended gunfight thing

[whole plume]

True tbh

[whole plume]

Aye, more angles than a maths problem

[solemn patio]

Is it even a practical building for shipping??

So many angles bro

[whole plume]

I would say so, but not being a postie take it with a pinch of salt

[void jasper]

Nope that’s probably why the mail takes so long

[whole plume]

What about it is impractical?

[proper dock]

just look at it

[void jasper]

lol the big ol pile of mail and packages 📦

I’ll bet that’s how a post office looks

[proper dock]

the sorter and converyors are a shitshow

[whole plume]

I think that isnt a flaw of the building, more-so a reflection of the chaos of Los-Suenos as a whole

[whole plume]

Id have to look in more detail tbh

[void jasper]

I’ll bet trying to get a package in los suenos is just plain murder

[whole plume]

Given the amount of Guys with guns, I suppose that statement might be right in a literal sense

[proper dock]

it appears that a lot of things in Los Suenos are just plain murder

[void jasper]

I’ll bet if you order it to the police station it somehow always arrives

[proper dock]

I S ranked VotD through Rust Belt yesterday

[void jasper]

I’m doing alright so far but I just keep dyin is all

[proper dock]

ran Sins once before going to bed. I think it'll take me a whie

Elephant was stressfull

[void jasper]

Some of these map names are movie references I swear
Ides of march, elephant

Gonna try and use more c2 charges on greased palms see how that goes

[short crow]

Did anyone play the dlc ?

Second one

[toxic swallow]

no i don't think anyone has played any of the dlc ever

[short crow]

Third map there is a package you need to secure where can i find it

[toxic swallow]

hide and seek?

[void jasper]

Yeh I have it but I think I only played one map from it

[short crow]

3 letter traid smth like that

[toxic swallow]

i dont think that mission has any main objectives other than kill but if you mean soft objectives, i think there's a beeping noise you have to listen for

it's not a bomb but i think that's what you need

[short crow]

Oh alr thx

[toxic swallow]

i only know of two locations where it can be, one at the empty pool and the other at the northwest corner of the map, i think

i dont think there's a single mission i strongly dislike in the game, obv there are the really hard ones

i think looking for the spider containers is a huge pain in hide and seek tho

[sharp pecan]

Mods on console not possible

[storm belfry]

Elephant is related a Movie based off Sandy Hook I'm pretty sure

I would have to look it up

[glass nest]

Just to make sure if i buy mission pass alpha do i get BOTH dlcs and another one next year?

[amber dock]

Yes

[deep patio]

I never thought about this but how do I actually give a comprehensive content warning to someone before they play this game

Because it might be a great game but boy is it not pretty in its portrayals of anything.

That's not a bad thing but it does require a little bit of... Awareness of what is presented to you I suppose

[faint saddle]

Hey, is there a limit to the amount of loadouts you can have? The game keeps deleting mine…

[glass nest]

Thanks

[prime spear]

Why the actual fuck is the #🎨ron-screenshots-and-art slowmode 20 minutes.

[prime spear]

How many loadouts cro need.

[vague locust]

just tell them its all the real life stuff they dont want to think about, lol

[prime spear]

"Think of the slimetok community" basic as that.

[deep patio]

I think there might be because I have had some loadouts just disappear when I was making individual loadouts for my AI

[spiral tundra]

I stole em
Sorry guys

[prime spear]

Vro making loadouts for WW3.

[deep patio]

welp.

[prime spear]

USIA.. turn him into a sleeper agent.

[spiral tundra]

I am the agent

[void jasper]

Nah it’s older than that

HOOOLY DAMN CAPTAIN ZHU YUAN!!!!

[prime spear]

@stable kernel thoughts?

[storm belfry]

Hi cyberlife android guy

[amber dock]

What kind of thoughts is Eman supposed to have? It’s a channel dedicated to only art related to Ron that’s why it has such a long cooldown. But people still use it as a discussion channel even though there’s 2 of them

[prime spear]

Thanks for the suggestion.

[amber dock]

Same goes for #🎬ron-clips-and-media

[faint saddle]

I like to have one for me, one for my team, a non-lethal, and some fun stuff.

[faint saddle]

EXACTLY

[deep patio]

Yeah no, it just goes poof sometimes

Just make one basic one size fits all and you can modify it if need be

So if you want Alpha to have an M203 Flash, you manually change that

You get what I'm saying, you're smart

[faint saddle]

Well that’s annoying. Ah well.

[prime spear]

Is...

Is that a DarkViperAU emoji.

Connor: 🔼

[deep patio]

Yes

That is indeed a DarkViperAU emoji

[gaunt gale]

Because you're not meant to talk in there, you're just meant to post what you wanna post and have that be it

#❓modding-faq

Smeckledorf

[fading arrow]

I want some new maps 😭 love the game but I’m bored now

[void jasper]

Do the buffs from the ai special qualifications stack up? Thought the paramedics would help on greased palms but I dunno…

[jolly verge]

Paramedic reduces chance for each officer to be KIA after mission from 50% to 0%, so he will be incapacitated instead

[storm belfry]

DarkViperAU whenever DarkViperNA:

[jolly verge]

Best traits are 2 negotiators for 50% surrender chance from compliance shout, 1 armorer for 5% more reduction with steel plates (91.5% in total) and 1 nutritionist for 25% more health

Kicker and armorer do not stack, Intimidator only up to 2x, any other trait up to 4x https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Znj4rCaM8g6QREFNWwHRBFSdnfdzYM37Y5AeHQ10rtg/edit?usp=drivesdk

[nimble bough]

oh

no wonder dudes never surrender

i have to yell like 20 times before they surrender

[jolly verge]

Default shout for compliance require either suspect to be stunned or having really low morale

To make him surrender

Negotiator trait simply roll chance to force surrender, same with Pacifier

[tulip rampart]

how is suspect morale lowered? @jolly verge

[jolly verge]

Morale, stress & non-lethals list, everything is explained here https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1d89lpFDA9lo_v13iBlnhtuA6DvuUnKfPaeo0d4RBGJ4/edit?usp=drivesdk

[amber dock]

Shameless plug of @crude prism and Aspid spread sheet smh

[jolly verge]

[normal tinsel]

is there a way to upgrade to the alpha pass from the base game

[simple dirge]

Maybe I am off topic, but I want to thank Void team for bringing me such an amazing and challenging and revolutionary shooting game. I am an old school fella still bound to CS 1.6 and I am enjoying RoN a lot despite I am on PS5 and I am complying in using a fucking shitty controller ♥️

[warm talon]

I think I am off topic but can we please have more maps into the dlc

[warm talon]

All dlcs

[amber dock]

On console?

Console I don’t think you can for whatever reason

[simple dirge]

As soon as I get a mouse, there will be a new sheriff in town 😄😇

[amber dock]

Unless it’s this @normal tinsel https://store.playstation.com/en-se/product/UP6322-PPSA18605_00-ADDCONTMISSIONPS

[normal tinsel]

oh is it a consoles only

im on steam oh well

[amber dock]

I don’t understand then what you’re asking of

[tulip rampart]

this was very helpful, thanks

[amber dock]

Cause DLC’s you can buy on steam no issues

The 3rd dlc will be made available once it comes out like usual

On console it’s just like that for ease for console peeps

But they still paid same price as you will once dlc3 comes

If you’re asking cause you wanna save money

[final adder]

How do you go in Gamechat on pc

[amber dock]

Voice chat is V by default, text chat is Y

[tulip rampart]

i've made progress

not much, but it's something

i'm onto the spider with zero officer casualties, all content stress level, standard ironman mode

i'm gonna get that dev watch even if it's the last thing i do

[copper wagon]

just need relapse and port for hard diff completions

[valid steeple]

hey guys is it just me or is anyone else having problemns with multiplayer? i cant join my friend

[limpid crest]

Anyone know why I’m not getting progression on the S rank all missions achievement, I’m doing missions on safe mode, on quick play, and S ranking missions

[copper wagon]

are you on standard mode?

[limpid crest]

Yeah

[copper wagon]

i have no idea then. must be missing one, whats the progression at?

[limpid crest]

I’m 6/18 and should be at 9/18

[amber dock]

It’s very iffy with tracking progress correctly sadly

Best Strat is to keep redoing same map until you see that the achievement has counted one map

Instead of doing it map map and missing progress

[limpid crest]

I mean I’m fine if it gives me the achievement when I’m done

[amber dock]

It won’t sadly unless it tracks the 18/18

Like the achievement stores its own data whether you did it or not so if the counter isn’t going up you won’t get it

[limpid crest]

I did ends of the earth twice, once on hard and once on standard and it didn’t work both times so idk at this point

[amber dock]

It’s very iffy like I said, you have to keep redoing it until it tracks on its own

[limpid crest]

That’s tragic

I just did greased palms

[split flower]

What does he not know??

[deep patio]

Nothing I guess, it's just that challenge makes my soul want to ascend

[split flower]

Im thinking of having 2 save files 1 iron mode and the other just doing the missions regular mode… after being able to complete a mission perfectly a couple of times then hop over to my Ironman save… is this a good plan chat? @deep patio

[tulip rampart]

all my officers have riot shields for protection. got a nutritionist and armorer. nonlethal primaries for morale upkeep

[deep patio]

Well yeah that should work

But being able to S Rank a mission and knowing it well would probably have you doing well

Cause it's important to know that you can't kill everyone cause on certain maps you might get your officer straight from content to crisis and have them resign

[split flower]

I thought you just had to complete Ironmode to get the Icy watch? I didn’t know you had to S rank every mission💀 F that

[deep patio]

So doing a mixed lethal and non lethal loadout is kind of necessary

[tulip rampart]

you don't have to s rank everything on ironman for the world or hermit trophy

[deep patio]

Well you don't have to, it's just that if you kill too many people your officers will get stressed out too fast and there comes a point where mathematically you can't kill everyone because your officers will enter a crisis state if they're too stressed

[split flower]

I was planning a full C2 / Flashbang loadout for all non lethal

[deep patio]

They gain between 0.03 and 0.08 points of stress per suspect killed assuming you don't have an officer to reduce that

So if you go around killing everyone you might have an officer resign at the end of the mission cause 100/0.08 is about 13 suspects and there's a 30% stress multiplier if they're the one to have taken that life

[deep patio]

It might just work but if you reach the crisis state just alt F4/quit the game immediately because if you return to the station they might resign and make you fail

Same thing if an officer dies, just alt F4

[uncut widget]

Guys, Is ballistic shield breakable now? Because my friend just died even tho he was crouching and looking straight at enemy

[amber dock]

they can aim for your feet even fully crouched

[tulip rampart]

it's been like that

[tulip rampart]

utter bs, sometimes they even hit my arms even tho im looking straight at them

[split flower]

If I’m on ps5 I guess I’ll test to see if closing my game or unplugging my console will work lol (Hope my console doesn’t get fried)

[tulip rampart]

dude don't unplug your console

[deep patio]

Just close the game quickly that should work

Don't unplug your console, you might corrupt your storage 💀

[split flower]

Ok ok I won’t unplug my console! and if closing the game works Ironman is going to be too easy

[deep patio]

Just wait until you reach Neon Tomb.

Or valley of the dolls even lol

[split flower]

I solo’d valley after a few tries 🙂 I’m rocking the Hawaiian shirt / MMA shorts and get kicked from half of the games I join 👍 😅

[split flower]

Yeah Neon Tomb is tough af

[deep patio]

Neon had me 2 officers down and I was doing full lethal on quick play

And I'm pretty sure that map has too many enemies to be done full lethal but then again you can just test it out and if you can't finish the mission without having an officer in crisis then yeah mixed loadout it is

[small cloud]

public matches making me wanna turn crossplay off

i was defusing a trap and dude just kicks the door 😭

next game im tk'd 😭

[tulip rampart]

i'm trying to get The Hermit achievement

all my officers have heavy armor with ceramic plates, ballistic masks, non lethal primaries, but lethal secondaries. all of them have riot shields. i have one nutritionist, armorer, pacifier, and the one that lowers overall morale loss. all have solely flashes and c2s, with obvious spare mags. i have heavy armor and lethal primary/secondary with a mirrorgun, flashes, lockpick gun, and tazer.

is this a good loadout for a combination of tankiness and luck?

[meager wharf]

any idea when the next patch is gonna be released?

[amber dock]

nope

[toxic harness]

It was supposed to be after the RAX event but I guess I got lied to

[meager wharf]

i just wanna play kbm on ps5 😭🙏🏽

[toxic harness]

Same

[storm belfry]

[small cloud]

he looked at me defusing and then kicked the door is what gets me

[storm belfry]

Don't even ask why I got pictures for this

[small cloud]

tbf i was on the edgeware apartment map

their minds can only comprehend traps on the foerst map

[storm belfry]

Bold ideas, like assuming people in quick play have a fully developed frontal lobe

[small cloud]

public match players when the enemy is behind your teammate

[maiden flame]

Pro tip when u hold out any grenade the middle of the left hand where the gap is kinda in the middle of that is ur sight

[nimble bough]

should you just always keep your entire team together?

anytime i send one team to do something one of them always die ☠️

[quasi coral]

YES YOU KEEP YOUR TEAM TOGETHER

Lmfao, don't trust them to do things alone, breaching rooms and clearing em are the best they can do with splits

[nimble bough]

yeah

especially around civilians

they ALWAYS go in just gun blazing the poor people 😭

[quasi coral]

Is this multiplayer or with AI?

[nimble bough]

AI

[quasi coral]

This sounds like both

[nimble bough]

LMAO

i wont lie ill partake in it too once i finished all the campaigns and stuff

[quasi coral]

If you know theres a hostage, YOU should breach first

And slowly neutralize the suspect

[nimble bough]

most of the time its like those people just randomly standing around

[quasi coral]

Ya, it's for the better

[nimble bough]

shouldnt be there!

[agile merlin]

Warcrime time :3

[normal tinsel]

i mean you're not at war with the citizens (at least I hope not), so it's just regular crimes but I figure that's an irrelevant detail

[agile merlin]

Los Suenous is basically a warzone currently.

Gonna get a LIL silly

And ready or not just fucking crashed

Fucking Lovely

[toxic harness]

Man fuck RoN, imma play Police Simulator

Now that can rival RoN frfr

[floral gorge]

daddy judge

[verbal meteor]

how many suspects are there on relapse in hard mode?

[nimble bough]

by the way how do you get S+ ranks on missions? my highest has ever been A+

oh well nvm ill finish a mission then look at the breakdown

i think that'll tell me if im not mistaken

[full wave]

Best bet is usually non-lethal equipment like pepperball or beanbag shotgun and I think stunning gear like stingers or flashes?

But that's from a friend showing me, I'm mostly KOS with armed suspects lol

[fickle idol]

I think the roe for most missions is kinda shit

I genuinely believe that some missions. Like neon bomb. Should be kill on sight.

[full wave]

It's always almost KOS for me with that mission

If that guns up/aimed, then that's good enough reason to open fire

[fickle idol]

I agree. Especially with a civvie nearby. Who knows how much over pen the suspects weapons can have. Specially if it's a rifle.

[full wave]

Or an RPD.

[fickle idol]

And like I said I think the ROE officially speaking encourage KOS on specific missions. Cause yk... I don't think it's a good idea to try to arrest people with bomb vests. And you've seen clips of people using spray. It's effing stupid.

The game wants to be dark gritty and serious but the game encourages gameplay that is often cartoonish.

[full wave]

Yeah, I can see that; I understand the ROE is technically supposed to make sure we don't do stupid shit to our own blues or civis but missions like Relapse or Neon Tomb I'm not taking chances when there's someone ready to detonate nearby me or already intending on shooting

Though I haven't really taken notice on the cartoonish side of things with gameplay?

[fickle idol]

https://youtube.com/shorts/ouUHM4Th11Y?si=rphhDOTYm1KEB5dX

[nimble bough]

yeah, i'll probably just grind S ranks after i finish the whole game or something

just spent like 15 minutes looking for this last guard 😭

dude was in an area i literally cleared too

[fickle idol]

The fact that ai have so little self preservation that they won't immediately fall to the ground in the face of a 5.56 rifle is cartoonish and actually detracts from immersion and my experience as a player.

[nimble bough]

yeah my guy just stood still while bullets were flying 😭

[full wave]

Completely understandable, I've had my fair share of moments of them just... Dying? By their own stupidity

[nimble bough]

i wish they had it where AI fell back to fall in mode or something after clearing a room

[full wave]

Or my infamous memory where my own guy shot a civilian long after I dealt with a shooter

[full wave]

Trying to grab a suspect or civi during a gunfight too lol

[nimble bough]

awareness of a rock i swear

maybe someday it'll get tweaked though

[fickle idol]

Or had actual responses to being hit like their body rocking from the hit.

[nimble bough]

that too

[fickle idol]

I swear the only weapons with good hit feedback are battlerifles and shotguns

And also the 50 cal pistol

[full wave]

They're worse on Greased Palms, tell em to go clear a room and they'll just try clearing the entire warehouse

[fickle idol]

Dunno why the 45 longslide doesn't have the top mounted laser like it's 50 cal counterpart tho

[nimble bough]

i lost so many officers on that map

either from all of us being shot from narnia

[fickle idol]

Worse in the mexico caves mission.

Clear the room. Stands still

[full wave]

RIP

[nimble bough]

i just had that issue 😭

i kept clicking stack up and move and clear

[fickle idol]

At that point I'd rather have no backup period

[nimble bough]

im terrified to walk in alone

i always send one in first then go after them 💀

[full wave]

I think a pet peeve of mine as well is after assessing a room or suspect my own units tend to just stand still and drool while I wander away thinking they are following

[nimble bough]

yeah

ive been remembering more to click "fall in"

[fickle idol]

Warning shots should really help discourage resistance

[full wave]

I legit have to keep a head cam on to baby monitor them that they're following

[fickle idol]

Like if I fire above a civvies head they should just sprawl immediately

[nimble bough]

lol

[nimble bough]

i thought they did at first

sometimes it works...?

[fickle idol]

Feels like it only works with some guns

[full wave]

Sometimes that does work and sometimes they just stare at you like you won't shoot them

[fickle idol]

Battle rifle, shotgun, sometimes revolvers

[fickle idol]

At the rate the game is I just wanna bludgen every npc

[nimble bough]

yeah

especially when they yell "i don't have to listen to you!"
