[tough veldt]

you should at least get another player because the bomb rooms are really nasty.

target the guys with the RPD, theres like 2 on the relapse map

[deep sentinel]

Unless you're actually checking around corners and shit with the mirror cam its better to have them extra 4 stingers

[real frigate]

@acoustic elbow ignore

[stone bay]

we are using the mirror, not dropping that either

[real frigate]

@solar hemlock ignore

[deep sentinel]

Well idek bro

If you aren't gonna take any advice idk how to help

[real frigate]

wrong ping.

[stone bay]

I highly doubt the shield and mirror are the reason we're losing here

[deep sentinel]

At least try things

Well yeah its most likely the fact the ai on Hard are completely fucked but you can still mitigate it by trying new stuff

[stone bay]

I'm not taking your advice because they don't make any sense. Getting rid of strong items like the mirror gun and shield is crazy.

[tough veldt]

i know for me at least,
when i got it done on hard mode for relapse, on quickplay, i gave everyone a shield

[deep sentinel]

Getting rid of strong items on a map where there's stronger items

[deep sentinel]

Did you solo it

The ai are insane with shields

[tough veldt]

i did it with the 5 ai team mates

[deep sentinel]

Yeah

[tough veldt]

i didnt get s rank on hard mode because we were going lethal

i just wanted it done for the achievement

[deep sentinel]

I had absolutely no problems when I did it and just brought a metric fuckton of flashes, ammo and a M320 stinger

[tough veldt]

I ran it again on hard mode on multiplayer and they john rambo the entire building and even arrested the HVT

[stone bay]

I don't see why I can't bring the flash launcher and shield together

[deep sentinel]

There's better maps to use a shield and mirror gun on and Relapse isn't one of them

[deep sentinel]

The shield should be a primary

Not a long tactical

[stone bay]

Mirror gun has helped us a lot of the times to prevent us dying and plan a door breach, I don't get where this idea of it being useless comes from, especially when there are 3 of us

[deep sentinel]

I never said the mirror gun was useless?

[stone bay]

You're saying we would be better off running something else on relaspe

[deep sentinel]

Yes that's not me saying its useless im saying there are better options

I feel like the person who has actually done the mission on hard might know how to do it better than somebody who's struggling on it

At least give it a go

The whole point of all the shit in our kits is for us to use it all to our advantage

Having more launchers is most definitely better than just tanking shots when the AI have practically infinite ammo coming from fully automatic RPKs

[tough veldt]

ayo fuck them machine guns

they're a pain in my ass

[deep sentinel]

The RPKs are so ass bro

[stone bay]

It's not about just tanking shots it's about taking their agro.

[deep sentinel]

Hate them mfs

[deep sentinel]

The ai are fucked dude they switch agro all the time

[stone bay]

If theyre distracted shooting me, my teammates can do something to stop them

In every playthrough weve done they've been focused on me

[deep sentinel]

Idk how

At least give other options a go instead of saying you cant complete it and not taking any advice when people try and help

[stone bay]

Idk man, I really don't think it's the loadout that's hurting us here

[deep sentinel]

As I said before the ai are fucked but different loadouts still make it easier despite how buggy they are

[stone bay]

For the record, I was asking whether or not flash or stinger would work, we didn't get on the topic of loadout until I mentioned what gun I had

[deep sentinel]

Mb for trying to make it easier for you

[rocky lotus]

So this game is dead right? The devs left it to rot?

[mortal steeple]

Dont think so..? isnt there a new dlc expected for 2026?

[rocky lotus]

Where?

Pretty sure devs ran off with their money lol

[mortal steeple]

Dont know man

Cant send a pic here but the description on their game says theres a third dlc for 2026

[tough veldt]

Idk why people keep asking this lol

The season pass is $20, there has to be at least one more dlc to make the season pass a deal as opposed to buying the dlc piece meal

[cosmic arrow]

Hopefully modders take reign on the game and make more maps and revolutionize gameplay.

[rocky lotus]

Are they gonna fix the numerous current in-game bugs or add any more base games and maps? Or is there just the promise of a 3rd dlc in 2026 with no more details about it

[cosmic arrow]

Hopefully modders encompass it all

[thick dome]

it'd be super cool if hte devs would build in mod management into the game itself and fix it so updates dont break mods...at least not maps

with AI customizer built in as well. basically how groudn branch does it

if youve never played ground branch... you can select from 5 AI presets OR customize all the AIs parameters in the game..as well as select the # of enemies on a map. its super good idea for these PVE games

[chilly thorn]

They are going to fix the bugs most likely, Especially considering the ones now are pretty noticable. We will most likely get another DLC as well with like 3-4 new maps

[rocky lotus]

The last bug fix notification was from months ago lmao, the person who posted it isn't even here anymore

The last patch was February 💀

[chilly thorn]

Yeah, Pretty sure the reason development has slowed down is due to lots of developers getting jumbled around and void hiring new people

I think they just need more time to like get back on their feet or whatever

• they've had like 4 dumbass controversies they gotta deal with lol

[rocky lotus]

They should communicate more

I understand having internal issues that need to be fixed but you also need to be more clear about things

[chilly thorn]

That is one thing yeah The fans wouldn't think they "Abandoned Us" if they explained this better

Like its completely understandable just like tell us lol

[rocky lotus]

I mean they have a discord and haven't seemed to really post anything in months, they post often on their Instagram but it's all just promotional stuff lmao

It's like they care about getting new players but not retaining them

They just want people to spend the 40 bucks or however much it is and then they don't care from there

[chilly thorn]

I'm pretty sure thats because the Marketeting team and Development Team are disconnected to each other

Its pretty easy to tell looking at how the vibe of the trailers is much different then the vibe of the game

[rocky lotus]

I would argue the dev teams job is harder but that just means they need to be more open to communicating stuff instead of saying nothing

[chilly thorn]

I believe the console stuff is marketted by a different team as the new trailers.... suck.

[rocky lotus]

Because then it seems like they're not doing anything at all

[chilly thorn]

They are definently working they just don't tell us what they are working on

[rocky lotus]

I have doubts

[austere rain]

i understand why, they make new announcement on steam or whatever, all comments and feedback are just spamming the same stuff over and over about censorship, graphical downgrade this and that

[covert aurora]

Its also they only talk about stuff when they havs something talk about. Why post something if there isnt something that needs to be talked about?

[rocky lotus]

Idk the endless bugs and game ruining glitches could be addressed but it seems like they've said nothing about them for months lol

[celest epoch]

I haven't encountered anything serious, save for specific rooms on some maps that bring me from 70 fps to 20, and occasionally bodies glitching through doors which is just hilarious. What bugs/glitches should I look out for

[rocky lotus]

Ai seeing you through hard walls, glitchy ai movement, evidence disappearing, the main guy from lethal obsession getting stuck and disappearing

[tough veldt]

They had a dev briefing on the 31st of October

[rocky lotus]

That's something

[tough veldt]

Patch 1.3.5 was on September 11th. So idk where you pulled the "they were silent for months" from

[covert aurora]

Gerard getting stuck in a vent was fixed awhile ago i think back in auguest

[rocky lotus]

Happened to me in October

[covert aurora]

Interesting...

[stable kernel]

What is this auguest you speak of

Is this the new trend that the cool kids are doing?

[covert aurora]

Yeah man... you gotta get jiggy with the auguest, to make your your hip with the times!

(That was really cringe. I will see myself out.)

[stable kernel]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-gif-441666516964176409

I think that's for the best

How old are you anyway, old man?

[covert aurora]

[stable kernel]

Decrepit

[covert aurora]

I feel ancient

[vestal mauve]

update when

[covert aurora]

soon™

[quasi coral]

Liar

It's another month until we're in the update time zone

I must say, it's got me super excited though, hopefully it's January

[odd geyser]

Are there any vids I Can Watch to Ron‘s „how people react when you inject solid lead into them“ System

The different things that Happen when You Hit them in different Places including armor

[mystic echo]

is JHP overhated

[vocal brook]

Any tips for sins of the father? Struggling with how many angles you can be shot from

[latent crescent]

100%
JHP is a must for 7.62

otherwise u’ll end up wallbanging a civvie sooner or later

[mystic echo]

mirror gun

use the ability to be able to check corners and under doors to your advantage, and bring alot of flashbangs

[mystic echo]

i use JHP on my 300 blackout, its so overhated, its more limb damage for only the lack of ability to pen L4, and L4 is barely used

it does a shit ton of damage, you wont wallbang a civvie and it still pens armor decently well

[latent crescent]

jhp on 300blk is very useful too

[mystic echo]

yeah, and js switch to AP on maps w l4 armor

[latent crescent]

dont do it solo, use one team of swat ai to hold each end of the corridors as u and another team clear the rooms

[mystic echo]

jhp diss is so buns

[latent crescent]

fr bro

they can go wallbang civvies i’ll stick with jhp

jhp on pistol rounds are useless tho

[mystic echo]

i dotn even use pistol

normally i js use jhp on it tho

[latent crescent]

not even smg’s?

[latent crescent]

its good for early maps where they have no armour

and the 357 one shots

that kinda makes the wild west achievement much easier

[mystic echo]

no

[mystic echo]

normally good unless ur going non lethal but youd js use a diff gun in that case

[rugged isle]

greased palm in the office area, civ as hostage pretty much in my face as i was turning ...not a hostage situation anymore-

[torpid onyx]

JHP for round nose calibers and 300/7.62 is essentially the only option

ap is severely overvalued

it's essentially only good for 5.56 and maybe 5.7 I don't remember if 5.7 JHP works on l3 plates

[lost inlet]

no it doesn't.

[thick dome]

I like the ga51 with AP..cause im Swiss cheesein!

[unborn kestrel]

feels great to come back to port hokan once in a while

probably the best mission in a tactical shooter ever

well one of the best i guess

[thick dome]

for this game..not a big fan of that map. tjats more a counter terror assault.

I did like the oil rig map though. really cool level design and detail

[heady wadi]

Terrible performance though, bear in mind the playtesters actually approved of that somehow

[heady wadi]

And the storyline is so well thought up, it’s all connected in different ways I love it

[vale needle]

is the morale system still bugged?

[jolly verge]

Wdym

[vale needle]

i havent been around long but sometimes it seems like flashbangs and the breaching shotgun still raise suspect morale, was that ever fixed?

[jolly verge]

Never was a thing

[tacit gull]

They do raise suspect stress which is something else

[unborn kestrel]

sucks that some people hate hide and seek just because they like s ranks

must be so fun clearing a very open map with non-lethal weapons tho

playing ron with a full less lethal loadout is actual torture

having so much guns to play with

and you're forced to use pepperballs at long distances

[jolly verge]

M32A1 is a thing

[heady wadi]

Would be nice having more stuff besides pepper balls, beanbags and flash launchers, voids devs might genuinely be one of the slowest working dev teams I’ve seen in a game

Somehow is slower at releasing content than rockstar games

[unborn kestrel]

booooring

[solemn patio]

The b92x is so sexy amiright

[tough veldt]

That never was a thing

Loud explosions and gunfire raise stress

Less lethal and non lethal lower morale

You're probably using lethal equipment and loud breaches, which will raise stress and cause suspects to immediately fire on you giys

Your breach shotguns raise stress

[copper cypress]

After the M320A1 was released, are people still using pepper balls and beanbag?

[jolly verge]

Yes

[rugged isle]

Is there a quiet way to smash windows beside shooting them or throwing flashes? I tried to melee but i’m afraid those 2 are the only things usable

[lost inlet]

nah.

[solemn patio]

1911 then?

Cause the five seven is ugly

[jolly verge]

Shoot from 20m away from suspect

[quasi coral]

They're like super small

[solemn patio]

Its super hard to go quiet in this lowkey

[thick dome]

you can smash some w8ndows with melee. but its inconsistent

[quasi coral]

Well, for what they're doing they are quite small, like 98 developers or something

Like some solo developers making similar games take up to an YEAR for an update

So I'd say like 1 month for an update for VOID is like overclocking time

I admit they are slow sometimes, compared to what they offer

[heady wadi]

That’s no excuse when the content they release is well, super small, they can’t even release a fucking attachment system in 6 months, it’s not that hard. Even just bug fixes takes months, that’s bad

[quasi coral]

Bug fixes is something I hella have a problem with

[heady wadi]

They patch the game that adds more bugs, with the floating casings

[quasi coral]

Same with some promised features like you said, attachments

[heady wadi]

Like great job there game testers

[quasi coral]

COME ON GNG 😭😭🙏 TS SHOULD BE DAY 1

[quasi coral]

Yea if the game testers were like "Yea this is it, this is perfect" then I totally blame them just as much

[heady wadi]

Cause no game tester would let the game go out like that. Missing textures, floating casings, weapon sound bugs (super nova still not fixed)

Since launch the supernova has double sound, which they still haven’t fixed, only reason I don’t use the shotgun cause of the audio bug

[quasi coral]

Either they don't have enough testers to search out every drop or they don't test enough(It's either with time or with laziness lol)

[heady wadi]

The floating casings was within the first 5 minutes of fighting ngl unless they just don’t actually play their own game

[quasi coral]

Same thing with high ready, the thumb clips into the PEQ-15 on most AR-15 platform guns with the combat or angled attachment, also the reason why I don't use it some of the guns, and this shouldn't need 3 patches before it's fixed..

[quasi coral]

Maybe I haven't been paying attention because I haven't seen any floating casings yet

[rugged isle]

Same never had them..or i didn't saw them if it happened. The only bug i'm having in this period is ai standing still and need to give the command two or three times or moving them then command again..as if they couldn't reach the door or place for whatever reason since it's literally clear space.
But considering civs and suspects usually can't even move past a door when you move them to your position not that surprising-

Bugs aside, what's your go to optic for rifle/pistol?

[quasi coral]

It's just so annoying right?? Especially in the mission Rust Belt

Falling in and re-stacking doesn't work, which makes it evenw orse

[quasi coral]

Eotech or the Elcan sight

The Eotech looks cool and works, the Elcan sight looks cool and works in some cases

The Elcan is 10x more cool if I actually use it as intended(Very rarely)

Not cool it cannot go between 1x and 4x, might as well switch it out with an Acog instead

[reef sequoia]

Who else things the grandmas n the farm map out in the garden have aimbot?

[rugged isle]

I used to have the eotech for the look but switched to the 510c (with logo mod) since it looked to have less frame when ads. Or it's just me and they could take the same space.

Recently i installed a mod with a working holo+ magnifier so i'm sticking with that..need to get used but it works.

[quasi coral]

They do have training, evidently

So I think it makes sense, sometimes

[quasi coral]

I would 100% use the 510C more as well, but the PEQ-15 often blocks the view and the reticles stick OUT of the PEQ-15, which doesn't make sense

[reef sequoia]

I mean it makes it more fun and challenging but Yk how scary it is when my teammate dies and I hear “get.. out of my head” while they laugh and peek out from every corner?

[rugged isle]

I also changed that into another model.. don't remember but it's a bit more compact

[solemn patio]

We need to have risers and canted mounts.

[quasi coral]

Please for the love of Cod yes

[reef sequoia]

Honestly, in some of these missions we need drones. Not military drones but general recon drones

[solemn patio]

Just stacks 10 risers and when i ads im hipfiring

[quasi coral]

I went through 3 laser sights and none of them are as compact lol

[solemn patio]

Playin cod rn

[quasi coral]

Wish we did, can you imagine if we had the Hawks in Hide and Seek?

[reef sequoia]

Not even gonna lie i havent played hide and seek yet

[quasi coral]

"You look like a flowered shit woods"

[quasi coral]

Ooooh shittt, you'll know why

[reef sequoia]

We’ll see Im broke and Im currently running off of game trials 😭

[solemn patio]

Mw2 reboot, arguably the last good cod

[quasi coral]

It was the coolest thing ever when it first released

[rugged isle]

Something like the thing in Zero hour, literally a mini flying drone to look around. And could have either a battery/timer or range or even get disabled if you hit something too fast.

[quasi coral]

Lmfaoo, don't worry man, the sales are coming soon

[reef sequoia]

Agreed.

[reef sequoia]

Well it’s 20% off currently so it’s 40$ Rn but I’m 14 and cant get a job and with bills we don’t have a lot of stuff left over yk

But I Love RoN

[quasi coral]

40 BUCKS?!

[reef sequoia]

Yep

[quasi coral]

It's only 15 here, my apologies gng

[rugged isle]

And then ye on the topic of raisers, canted..like you have the default optic and a canted/raised version..literally adjusting where you aim but still the optic would be arleady an asset they have

[stoic thistle]

Like the chopper in dark waters, but controllable?

[reef sequoia]

15$?!

Mannn

[heady wadi]

It’s just embarrassing, no matter how small the studio is skipping over bugs like that is serious negligence

[quasi coral]

Yea our economy is shit but I'm lucky enough to be 5% of what Voll has

[reef sequoia]

With it being 15$ you don’t even need sales unless your tryna get the every DLC

But yeah for me it’s 40$

[quasi coral]

It's small easy bugs compared to the big ones that ruin immersion and it hasn't been fixed in ages

[heady wadi]

Would be cool if they can give us the p250 and the makarov, the models are literally already in the game and the firing sound etc like bruh

[heady wadi]

Yep, I seriously don’t know how some of this stuff got through testing

[reef sequoia]

Without the 20% deduction it’s like 60$

For base game no DLC’s

[quasi coral]

Now that's just, fuckin insane, I can see why some people are super pissed over some of the recent decisions and development lol

[reef sequoia]

Let me show you a pic rq

[quasi coral]

Insane, I should be a tester

I will scour EVERYTHING for ya'll dw

(rel)

[quasi coral]

The P250 being a primary pisses me off dawg

[reef sequoia]

Check #🎬ron-clips-and-media

[heady wadi]

I bought the deluxe version and pre ordered, had no idea people didn’t get the flash launcher and the mk5 pistol, literal game changers for both non lethal and lethal players

[solemn patio]

Its greedy as hell

[reef sequoia]

That’s sad, I use trials get get all the launchers off rip

[heady wadi]

I know bro, like why’s it a primary it’s a pistol carbine

[reef sequoia]

But no clothing or nothing

[solemn patio]

Im starting to think the devs ran off with the money from console release

[heady wadi]

If anything give us a Glock version or the m9 version

[heady wadi]

Have you tried the new double barrel shotgun in the superstore

[reef sequoia]

Lowk a burst pistol would be fire

[heady wadi]

They’d give it stupid recoil though and no attachments to help it

[solemn patio]

93r carbine conversion kit trust

Mw3 typa shit

[heady wadi]

Where’s my five seven muzzle break void cmon

[reef sequoia]

True but I mean it would be decent ish

[solemn patio]

Wheres my 509 muzzle brake

[quasi coral]

It just doesn't work as a primary, it should be a heavier secondary or a variant for an existing P250 option

[reef sequoia]

Five Seven in RoN is goated just my opinion tho

[heady wadi]

Real shit bro

Usp 45 muzzle break

[solemn patio]

Lowkey love the 509 irons

[rugged isle]

For me it’s 50euros full price, the base game. Considering to fix some stuffs or even QoL you pretty much either mod or deal with it..ye kinda high unless they go for a big fix..still see the point of the complaints on the speed of development

[reef sequoia]

Check this rq #🎬ron-clips-and-media message

[heady wadi]

Like bro why are they prioritising suppressors over muzzle brakes

[solemn patio]

OH MY GOD NEW WARBOND

[quasi coral]

Praying for you to be able to get the game in the future, the main selling point for me is the gucchi you can unlock and wear😭🙏

[heady wadi]

Yesss bro

[solemn patio]

I just got the double freedom in super store

[heady wadi]

New AR is pretty ass honestly

[solemn patio]

THE MAXIGUN IS MEDIUM AP WHAT

[heady wadi]

It’s fun for lower difficulties most likely

[heady wadi]

And you can refill ammo with ammo boxes, haven’t got enough medals for it yet

[quasi coral]

Lord you're on controller, that's probably why

[reef sequoia]

See, I love the realism and the tactical aspect and not knowing what to expect, along with realistic ish gear / clothing

[lost inlet]

which one?

[quasi coral]

Deluxe edition is insane

[heady wadi]

The one two, on helldivers btw not ready or not

[reef sequoia]

I am on console yeah but I run KBM

[solemn patio]

GONNA TEST THE DOUBLE FREEDOM RN

[lost inlet]

bruh, helldivers in ron discussion.

[solemn patio]

SHOULD I MOVE TO GEN DISCUSSION

[quasi coral]

I just wish they made the gear more fleshed out, the Dynamic Plate Carrier has so much potential..

[lost inlet]

yes.

[heady wadi]

God forbid I want to speak to somebody about another topic

[reef sequoia]

Agreed

[solemn patio]

You sound kinda pissed u good?

[heady wadi]

Games been out since what 2021 and the game still feels like early access

[lost inlet]

me am?

[quasi coral]

But yea dude, I would 100% gift RoN to you if I could

The game is just so good, ignoring all the wait and uhh very questionable decisions

[quasi coral]

Right? I've had this odd feeling that it still feels, experimental or sum

[reef sequoia]

Dude first mission I played in RoN was the starting mission (obviously) and a NPC Said “Get off me N Word!” That’s what made me be like Thats actually.. realistic.

[quasi coral]

Just doesn't feel like a full game YET(That's not to say it's HELLA fun)

[reef sequoia]

I wish someone would atp 🙏🏼

[quasi coral]

They actually use that word?!?!

[reef sequoia]

Yeah but only had kt happen once

[heady wadi]

Give it 3 more years we might get 2 new guns to use

[rugged isle]

It’s somehow the best swat experience despite the faults it ofc has..both graphic wise and overall immersion. And you have the whole mod aspect that still keep it alive as well.

[quasi coral]

I guess I haven't been playin TYCA! enough

[reef sequoia]

And it was with NPC Teammates after we got a hostage situation under control, I found the best way for those situations are just open and bang.

[solemn patio]

And 16 more bugs, perhaps a few funny ones?

[heady wadi]

Would also be cool to have a .22 pistol, not effective anywhere but headshots, rewards accuracy with low recoil

[quasi coral]

The fact it has so much mods for things that should be in the game tells me the devs really have a lot of catching up..

[solemn patio]

MK2 integrally suppressed

[heady wadi]

Some guy was arresting the old man on ends of the earth, started flying in the air

[quasi coral]

Honestly if they are both AR-15's with MLOK or a Daniel Defense handguard I might let it slide

[solemn patio]

LOL

[reef sequoia]

I use the Red Dot Scopes I’m not the biggest EOTech Fan but some of these Red Dots are WAY to compact

[heady wadi]

Why’s there not a square sight for pistols man, or just a more natural feeling sight

The dots are the size of a pin head I can barely tell where I’m aiming half the time

[solemn patio]

Double freedom will KICK ASS I believe it

Guess my talon is now crowd control

[heady wadi]

Something similar to the g.i reflex from modern warfare 2019 is what I’d want or an rds sight

[reef sequoia]

I use RMR For Pistols

[quasi coral]

Isn't there a square sight?

[heady wadi]

I just don’t like the dip it has like what’s the point

[quasi coral]

Or, are you referring to like that weird square iron sight

[heady wadi]

The RMR but without the weird dent on the top lol

[quasi coral]

RIGHT?! I feel like the mount not having any holes or sum just doesn't feel..

CAG

[quasi coral]

Oh those sights, isn't a problem for me but, I see where you're coming from

[heady wadi]

Just can’t wait for the g36 and mk18 carry handles so I can use normal scopes without vision issues

[reef sequoia]

Agreed LOL

Dude we need to be able to add a laser and flashlight

[quasi coral]

Ts makes me kick my feet

[reef sequoia]

It would be so useful

[quasi coral]

They will in the attachments update

[reef sequoia]

Do yk when that is?

[heady wadi]

G36c with the carry handle and a 510c ugh might be my main after that

[quasi coral]

Which is of Q1 2026, and I'm clenching my cheeks like, deadass I have exams right now and I can't focus on ts

[rugged isle]

Iusually run pistol with irons and laser pointer (again modded laser because the vanilla is like searching for a fly..like come on at least a bit brighter?)

[heady wadi]

They announced it on Halloween sooo.. prob after gta 6

[reef sequoia]

Ahh makes sense Lol

[quasi coral]

Hopefully it hits January

[heady wadi]

A cheeky December update would be nice, and some Santa hats on the guys on the main menu, the pumpkins were a nice touch

[quasi coral]

I suppose, but it makes me so mad that they could've just released a small patch with it or sum

I know it's more complicated and harder than that but I don't know

[heady wadi]

Did you see the pumpkins btw, ps2 poly models

[quasi coral]

It makes me feel weird when devs release a festive update, even if it's just a silly little thing that makes me feel like there should've been an update

[quasi coral]

I did not :(

[heady wadi]

I’ll send a pic in the channel

[quasi coral]

Don't worry, I have seen it

Just, not in-game

[heady wadi]

Ahh okay

[reef sequoia]

They might already plan on it or have it but what if they added weapon wraps? Im not talking about diamonds with lava Im talking about camo or yk

[heady wadi]

It’s in screenshots and media

[quasi coral]

Ready or treat

[quasi coral]

Very likely not

[rugged isle]

Same..especially because it could still have both festive things and some new stuffs even if it isn’t that big. Even a list of fixes, improvements would be cool..like “here is a gift while you wait”

[quasi coral]

It's not very practical in any force at all, in any case they use those, they cover the firearm with a special cloth or sum

[quasi coral]

That'd make me feel festive and happy, but whatever the devs are cooking for us has to be good

[reef sequoia]

I wish we had the option between handcuffs and zip ties not gonna lie

Ik it wouldn’t be practical

[quasi coral]

I think it's more of a practical issue, zip ties are cheaper and also a lot more compact so you can have TONS

Damn how did you know??!?!(It's also to do with lore, the department is kinda defunded[My departments kinda underfunded]

[heady wadi]

Swat use zip ties irl

[reef sequoia]

Cauys you have lowk 2-4 handcuffs and have 200 zip ties LOL

[heady wadi]

Mainly a weight issue

[quasi coral]

I just want the devs to come by every once in a while and info drop us a bit

"We're gonna drop in January, maybe" that'd be great on it's own

[heady wadi]

Like “hey guys, we’re still working on that update we promised, only another 4 months till we update you guys again!

[covert aurora]

Dev's drop things when they have something to talk about, other then that their focus are on fixes and that.

[rugged isle]

Underfunded yet can affort nvgs to all 5..i mean ye ofc game and it would suck if it was actually underfunded but still-

[quasi coral]

Justtt a thought

[heady wadi]

Being left in the dark is different from knowing they’re focusing in this or that

[quasi coral]

They're a special team after all

[heady wadi]

We get one steam page on Halloween andddd nothing since

[covert aurora]

that's how it's been since EA days

[heady wadi]

Void isn’t EA

[covert aurora]

early access

[quasi coral]

The best compliment you can give in these times

[heady wadi]

Been out for 4 years apparently, it still feels like early access sometimes

[covert aurora]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[rugged isle]

Ye i think underfunded is kinda relative…imagine if the commander mode was actually you getting more funds over the mission and therefore you are locked to a set of stuffs as a sort of progression.

[covert aurora]

i mean, i would love this kind of progression for commander mode spificly

[heady wadi]

Same apartment that stole the MKVs from the narcos and used them for our own missions lol, we just stole all our weapons

[rugged isle]

I feel like not a real grind but just limiting what and how much you can use till in the end you reach the default all unlocked that you would have in the quick play.

Like 2 bangs, pass x mission you carry up to 3, same for ammos ecc. would definetly be a bit harder but very cool to get o

*more creative

[heady wadi]

Would’ve been nice slowly upgrading to better weapons, like say you start with the pepper ball AR for non lethal, and completing a mission on S rank unlocks the beanbag or the smg variant

Like how we unlock watches for getting ranks on different missions

[quasi coral]

I personally prefer everything necessary or equipment to be unlocked at the start

[heady wadi]

Definitely lets you explore your own play styles

[quasi coral]

The "Play through the game and unlock more stuff" works a lot finer for me

[heady wadi]

I love the p90 but its recoil is so ass

[quasi coral]

Exactly, and also you get to instantly be as cool as you need to be

[rugged isle]

Could still be the quick play. Or even like iron man a toggle you can have

[quasi coral]

I mean come on it's like a flat surface and funny grip at the front

[quasi coral]

Maybe, maybe it's just campaign locked

[heady wadi]

The funny grip is basically a TH grip or whatever it’s called, comfortable and ergonomic, the recoil after 1 shot is like you just fired a 5.56

Makes zero sense

It’s 5.7 it should be low recoil

[quasi coral]

Weird rith?

Alright, time to go to bed, someone spam ping me if they release any announcements please 😭🙏

[torpid onyx]

the main issue is its like 80% horizontal recoil and it constantly it flicking back and fourth so you can't control it and your groupings past 10m are atrocious

and because it's horizontal and it goes both left and right controlling that part of it is not an option

then comparably the mp7 is a laser and stays centered and only gets vertical recoil making it like 1000x more viable

[rugged isle]

Never tried sub tbh..are they worth a try? I always use Hk rifles or a shotgun if i want to play as the breacher..or plan to be more..close and personal

[heady wadi]

The mpx is nice and familiar, the UMP variants are very good too, the mp7 kinda iffy, bad hit detection whenever you’re in public lobbies when you’re by yourself in commander mode it’s a laser

[rugged isle]

Will give a try for the mp7 in quick play..see also how the ai uses it. I guess with AP right?

[jolly verge]

Depends on mission

4.6x30 and 5.7x28 JHP can pen level 2 armor

AP for level 3

[scarlet valve]

Most are only worth it until L2 armor, you have 4,6x30mm and 5,7x28mm that can pen L3A but that is it

If the mission doesn't have L3A or higher then sure, you can use em
Otherwise tho, don't bother - unless you can go headshots, of course

[jolly verge]

4.6x30 and 5.7x28 also have the highest stagger chance among pistols/smgs

[scarlet valve]

For me I like the UMP family, other than that the MP5s are nice too (not Germaboo, i swear)
MPX is kinda decent to use, i like the bulky feel

[solemn patio]

I really want to be able to go prone so I can shoot through the vent in 23 mb/s

[rugged isle]

I just had the tought that there should be a med pouch item or gadget..since you can heal but the ai can’t and stays injured the whole mission.

[jolly verge]

They have more health and tank more shots than you do, especially with armorer + nutritionist traits

[rugged isle]

I need to read those traits lol

[simple mountain]

Add steam backgrounds

[atomic shoal]

Bro Elephant is so hard, I can't find the bombs. I can only find one.

[hoary knot]

once you know the map layout they are pretty easy to find, listen for that faint beeping and move toward it as soon as you can

[abstract leaf]

In casual there is only one

[abstract leaf]

I mean they gave a lot of time to search for the bombs

It's always in a desk

[thick dome]

listen for the beeps

[jaunty pebble]

All I want is to solo a level without having to create a lobby in multiplayer to prevent the friendly AI from liquidating me

This would be nice so that im not disconnected every 10 minutes of playtime by the shitty entity called epic game servers

WHILE PLAYING ALONE

[thick dome]

cant you just command the AI to stay put at the beginning?

tell then to hold or cover here or something

[rugged isle]

You can order the ai to cover or hold as soon as they spawn and never open the command menu again. Works to go solo

[versed hedge]

Is this police brutality or nah?
#🎬ron-clips-and-media message

[jaunty pebble]

Yeah but like I clearly wrote I dont want them liquidating me when I kill a civilian

[tough bison]

Why does my game look foggy?

nvm my brightness was just too high

[jolly verge]

If you on PC there is a mod that disables this behavior

[tough veldt]

Why are you killing civilians in the first place? You lose a lot of points

[rugged isle]

Ahh.. didn't understood that part...well ye not supposed to kill civs but they shouldn't kill you straight away. Only if you kill surrended people. Pretty sure i hit civs by mistake and i just got TOC yelling.

Killer one that surrended for curiosity and i got one tapped by the other officers

Also you can order that yourself if you are far away and kill a civ

[sharp lagoon]

i cant use a guy cuz he got incapacitated after like a match do i get him back or is he gone gone

[tough veldt]

Run the gas station mission a couple times and he will be bsck

Unless hes dead dead

[rugged isle]

If it's dead..is gone. If not, swap him with a reserve and follow the above suggestion

[sharp lagoon]

It only says incapacitated

[jolly verge]

He will recover after 1-3 completed missions

[sharp lagoon]

O thanks

Btw does the preset setting effect blood I’m tryna get the most detail without lag

I’ve basically got everything on default except preset on high

[jolly verge]

No, just don't disable worlds decals

[north mantle]

what happened to the old maps? the current ones are imo extremely bland , is it possible to play the old maps again?

like port , mansion and hotel were so fun to play

[sharp lagoon]

What does preset do cuz putting it on high lets me keep everything else on epic while making the game playable

And I’m only using a 2050 gpu

[jolly verge]

It's literally changes all sliders to the quality you set

[sharp lagoon]

O funni I missed the change

Anyway thanks

2 deaths so far

[dapper granite]

I tried installing a mod, restarted the game and now the steam cloud is unable to sync, am i good to launch the game anyway?

[wind gyro]

steam maintenance, you can use it but it sometimes tends to reset your whole save

[dapper granite]

that doesnt sound good

[jolly verge]

Imo it's better to disable steam cloud for this game and stick with local save

[odd pier]

hai, i wanna play commander mode but can anyone tell me if its like sad

i know ron is pretty dark, but does it get really sad, im pretty soft 😭

[tough veldt]

Play the 911 calls for neon tomb and elephant in quick play

[marsh cedar]

Hi I'm trying to get the MKV pistol but unsure how. Dose anyone know how?

[odd pier]

is it really sad?..

[tough veldt]

https://ready-or-not.fandom.com/wiki/Neon_Tomb#Neon_Nightclub_-_911_Call_01

https://ready-or-not.fandom.com/wiki/Elephant

The links have the 911 calls

Thats up to you to decide

[primal gate]

Just encountered a very funny multiplayer bug

my character spawned without a primary or secondary weapon

so I just ran around the mission with my gadget out the whole time

[vale needle]

man im done with this stupid ai withstanding flashbangs and stingers to the face then perfectly blasting me away this shit sucks

imma try my ironman mode run tomorrow because now im frustrated as hell it feels like i was cheated

[quasi coral]

I've always wondered what happened to the headset option for the Kaiju SF helmet

[quasi coral]

Sad, yes, it's depressing if you go through more info like briefings and 911 call audio

[hollow summit]

i just finished neon tomb on iron man mode for hermit, is there any tips for the remaining maps or for the mode in general becuase im kinda stressed..

[stray gorge]

They should add ACOGs to ron

[covert aurora]

Trijcon with rmr on top

Or hamr optic

[buoyant pecan]

Any news with RoN?

I haven’t played since liek

September or august lol

I heard multi rail attachments and whatnot are coming

Including my beloved G36 carrying handle

[faint ibex]

It’s base game

Just equip it

[faint ibex]

Nah

[bleak wren]

is anyone else struggling to get Nexus mod maps to work?

[fleet shard]

Will Ron’s graphics get fixed or is this just what they are like now

[torpid onyx]

on console it's deluxe edition or preorder only

until DLC 3

[covert aurora]

Its an issue they are aware of and looking into

[valid raven]

is shooting into a room with the intent to not hit anyone a valid tattic

Like shooting near them to scare them I’m told that often doesn’t work because it sometimes makes people panic

[vital dove]

Can anyone tell me whether incapacitating affects your ability to get S ranks? And whether theres a difference between hard and easy mode

[stable kernel]

Without a mod, incap and dead are the same point wise and disqualify you from S rank. Hard and easy are very different behavior wise, reference the tooltips in game.

[vital dove]

I stg i managed to get an S rank off unconscious

on the gas station mission

[marsh cedar]

Thank you

[delicate hound]

Can I swap anti-aliasing modes? I think the game defaults to TAA/TSR which looks garbage

[torpid onyx]

itll be available for everyone sometimes in Q1 2026 with the next lot of dlc/updates

[covert aurora]

something interesting walking around the station, walked into the cells and i heard the inmates talking to each other.

[modest bear]

Is anyone else getting that glitch where you can get oneshot with a ballistic mask and full heavy armor but suspects take 5+ rifle bullets to the chest to kill?

also, they're ignoring bullet wounds

(they don't react, don't pause, just keep firing as if the pain of a broken rib wouldn't immediately take them out of the fight IRL)

They need to reintroduce Neon Tomb's 2nd entrance. The map takes a millenia to clear now

[covert aurora]

Neon Tomb only had 1 entrance

even in early access

[modest bear]

Are you sure? I distinctly remember there being a side entrance to the right

that led directly into bathrooms

My point still stands. The mission takes FAR too long

[covert aurora]

no i agree

i am like 98% sure there's only been one entrance

[modest bear]

Do any of the suspects have gasmasks in that mission?

[covert aurora]

for neon? no, they were like balacavas alot tho and masks

like face mask

not gas masks tho

[modest bear]

I have an idea

[covert aurora]

hm?

[modest bear]

cs :)

I've been stuck on this stupid fucking map for weeks

[covert aurora]

fair enough

[stable kernel]

Embrace your inner John Wick and go ham

[modest bear]

I've tried that, but I get 1shot

[stable kernel]

Unlucky

[modest bear]

like why do they die in a minimum of 5 but I die in only 1 even if I have full steel plate heavy armor and ballistic mask

[stable kernel]

Only takes one to the head

[modest bear]

I'd love to hit headshots but I have shit aim lol

I line up the red dot, shoot when the red dot is on their head, and miss

I see the "civilian surrender AI stops working at random" bug is still alive and well

[rugged isle]

Never paid attention but the commands “cover” “hold” are pretty much the same? Like i feel like hold makes them actually covering the openings nearby when they stop while cover they seems to just point a random direction exposing themselves..like literally looking at a wall in a hallway with nothing there.

[cedar mulch]

Why doesn't Judge have special dialogue to evaluate different organisations? I think that would be quite interesting. I'd like to hear his take on TLB TH.

[modest bear]

That would be cool

I just want to return to the era when you could customize your skin color

RIP playing as King

they should make the voicelines actually affect gameplay

"These guns are crap, always jamming", yet not once in the mission does a suspect's gun jam

[hybrid belfry]

Why every random player i'm playing with killing fucking civvilians

I want to get an S rank, we successefuly arest everyone and then these motherufckers decide to shoot civ in the head with beanbag shotgun

im fucking tired I need an S rank on Spider

[tidal sleet]

Then why are you playing in a public lobby?

[modest bear]

Did they nerf CS gas or somehting?

the AoE is tiny as shit now!

[torpid onyx]

yes alot, the aoe size was reduced, the time that it takes to lower morale was increased, the duration of the cloud was reduced etc it's essentially useless

most of the time enemies just run out of the radius even if you do land it right at their feet because of how long it takes for it to immobilise someone and sometimes I'm pretty sure it just doesn't work

[rugged isle]

Ye, unless you use modded CS the vanilla it’s useless compared to the flash approach

And even that still very likely you e counter some sort of weird ai behavour. Other thing that should be either reverted or changed since you have no reason to use CS atm.

[modest bear]

That's some bullshit, why did they do that

now Neon Tomb is basically impossible if you don't have CSGO pro aim and reflexes

[jolly verge]

Take M32A1 then

[modest bear]

why would they do this... as if less than lethal wasn't hard enough as it is...

The pepperball launcher didn't NEED a nerf! It was already one of the worst guns!

[jolly verge]

It's was way too OP, but nerf too strong I agree

[torpid onyx]

cs gas waa probably deemed too good so they nerfed it until it was useless

[jolly verge]

It's still the same on standart, only gas cloud was changed

[modest bear]

still objectively terrible

[rugged isle]

Feel like if an officer farts it would be much more effective compared to the CS in the current state-

[modest bear]

They need to bring the AoE to 5m, and bring the stun up toe 100/s

nice middle ground between unusable and actually viable

Or maybe they revert to old, good cs nades but gassing civvies is against ROE?

bottom line, if a suspect can just run out of the room once cs has been deployed, it means it's been nerfed too far

[rugged isle]

Feel like against civs would be breaking ROE..at least you would require more intel before deploying CS.
And maybe some suspects have more resilience so a chance of escaping there is but should be rare

[modest bear]

That would be denoted by a suspect wearing a gas mask

otherwise, only suspects that have increased resistance are druggies like in 4U and 213 Park Homes

idk why they're trying to make the game harder, tbh, it's already plenty difficult

you gotta throw your players a bone every once in a while

[rugged isle]

The difficulty is fine i think..it’s just we have CS but it’s useless compared to stingers and flashes. Still would be a way cooler way to play in my opinion just sending Cs through openings and rushing in a bit later..i get in open zones it should be still a bad option but now even in a room it’s like as if it was a gust of wind..like everybody can walk away so of course you need to rely on bangs.

[modest bear]

That one vent in the apartments is practically designed specifically for CS gas, now michael can just sit down at his computer and he's fine

[rugged isle]

I think i will try to check out a mod i saw that could revert some of the changes,,and hopefully it doesn’t conflict with others. Still as many other stuffs it should be arleady base game..or at least a patch..like you see the changes are too much, either revert until another change or make an halfway between nerf and pre nerf…it’s not even about new stuffs but tweaks to an arleady existing thing. Maybe it will be addressed i hope but still i think some small patches here and there could be a bit more frequent especially when you see the whole player base against it. And it’s not even pvp where i understand it would be more tedious to take a nerf-buff decision.

[modest bear]

The main problem I have with this game is that new PAID content, such as DLCs, are introduced before the original game itself is finished

I understand that if devs waited for their game to be "done" and 'bug-free' before releasing DLC they may not be able to milk their playerbase for that extra $28, but at least make sure that core gameplay mechanics don't break down during normal gameplay to no fault of the player

[rugged isle]

It definetly had improvements but in terms of some bugs it still feel as if it was early access state. I think the main issue is the time between updates or at least even if it takes long there shouldn’t be bugs like ai ignoring commands ecc since it’s the core gameplay..we will see i guess..agree for the dlcs feels like they are a priority instead of fixing what there is arleady.

[jolly verge]

Default is TSR. You can change it to none, FXAA, TAA or use DLAA, FSR

[rugged isle]

What would be the middle ground in term of result, performances between them?

[jolly verge]

TSR is heavy on GPU but crispy

TAA is old blurry AA solution with shimmering, but does not glitch like TSR

FXAA just adds blur in this game and does not hide graphics glitches like hair, reflections and lighting

FSR - 🤮

DLAA with transformer mode looks very good but have ghosting problem

[rugged isle]

Wait Fxaa has blur? Think i might have found the issue i was having..will try to mess with them see if something changes

[jolly verge]

The only available option in game settings is TSR. All AA options have blur, some less some more

[chilly thorn]

It was fine before I mainly just used it to make sure a suspect wouldn't move when they were surrendered

it still works for that so its still useful

[torpid onyx]

i gave up on CS gas it takes way to long to work and rarely ever works it's just straight up easier to flash or stinger

[tacit gull]

^ this

CS gas wasn't even good in the first place, i have no clue why they curb stomped it

[jolly verge]

wasn't even good?

[tacit gull]

It took like an hour to deploy while i could have already started arresting someone in that time

The biggest advantage it had was it kept you safe if a suspect pushed in but otherwise i genuienly dont see why

[deep sentinel]

You know you're meant to throw it into the room and wait for it to deploy right

Not throw it and rush in like fucking seal team six

You're playing a police shooter you're meant to take your time with stuff

CS was amazing if you used it properly

[rugged isle]

Wedge entrances, spam CS and check if they still breathe...repeat it they do ignoring angry TOC noises.

[jolly verge]

Suspects instead of coughing now laughing

[rugged isle]

elephant first run...yeey💀

i managed to take 40 min on valley of the dolls because i was able to get lost twice and couldn't find the entrance where i sent the civs...let alone elephant

[keen rover]

now that things have calmed down, is the game still good after recent controversies?

[lost inlet]

it's mid.

[rugged isle]

good is a strech..but considering other ones it's still the one with most immersion atm..but long way to go before it's actually good in terms of fixes, content ecc. Still good if you can use mods

[buoyant pecan]

Apparently RoN soundtrack was my most listened to album on Spotify this year

[rugged isle]

best entrance for elephant?

[jolly verge]

North, there is a chance for 2-3 suspects to spawn in/near first room

[rugged isle]

yk..maybe door traps weren't too bad compared to a timer

[devout copper]

relapsed tips

[clever veldt]

Hey devs why don’t you do something with the fucking game you’re letting it die

[thick dome]

wish the timer was displayed..or some kinda audio cues to know how "fast" to pace

first time we did elephant bombs went off..we had no idea. after that..we just kinda speed run it with shotguns and ga51's ..not many enemies..so bring small # ammo and lots of flash bangs. bang and clean, bang and clear quickly

[whole plume]

Yeah

Gradually speeding music might work

[odd pond]

I must know what’s everyone’s least favorite mission

[sudden sky]

[sudden sky]

Oh and hospital

[sudden sky]

No idea

[final ember]

famous example would be Greased Palms

[jolly verge]

The only things that got nerf is gas and taser

[final ember]

alright, thanks

[tacit gull]

Or i can just throw in a flash, walk into the room and do the exact same thing as gas except faster and without suspects running around

[whole plume]

Only on Dorms and Twistef Nerve tbf

[solemn patio]

I used to use it a ton, but using flashlights makes it more exciting

[vital dove]

I feel like incapacitation should also allow you to get an S rank

What’s the point of incapacitation as a mechanic if it’s the same as killing

I feel like you should be rewarded the same if you’re able to control your gunfire and aim at nonvitals to the point of taking someone down without killing

[tacit gull]

Only thing incapacitations do is allow you to take in high value targets without failing the objective

[vital dove]

Yeah which is redundant because if you’re S ranking a map then you’re not using incapacitation anyways

I guess it’s not for standard mission completion

[tacit gull]

Well it's not redundant for the exact opposite situation

[vital dove]

But idk I find it a bit lame that to S rank you are pigeon holed into pepper ball weapons basically

[tacit gull]

Yes, that's the point

[vital dove]

Sure but I don’t think it’s a good point

[marsh lark]

The S rank is supposed to be a challenge, not the intended way to play the game.

If all you had to do was use low caliber and shoot non critical spots then it would be really easy

[tacit gull]

It forces you into a different playstyle and is (or rather was) a challenge

[tacit gull]

everyone be like "let us be able to shoot guns out of people's hands" but forget that's what made swat 4 100 score a joke

[marsh lark]

[thick dome]

the ga51 and rotary flash launcher alone are worth it.

[sonic tendon]

alright noted i’ll consider it then

[zinc lantern]

I don’t think you’ll receive the rotary flash launcher for buying any DLCs, I’m pretty sure it was a deluxe/preorder thing. It should be released for free with the next DLC though

[granite pilot]

NVGs are probably too expensive for SWAT teams IRL, it'll set you back $40000 per dude in a 20+ man team

so it's mildly unrealistic

[abstract leaf]

Gotta support your local swat team

[granite pilot]

tactical flashlight is cheap and effective

what is dumb about RoN is you can't have both flashlight and LCU when IRL quad grips exist

[lofty path]

That doesn't explain why players prefer torches over NVGs

I find that RoN is unique in that it is extremely immersive, with situations that are completely believable and realistic, and above all, very stressful. The atmosphere is truly oppressive

And seeing terrifying drawings of psychos on the walls doesn't help

The drawings of the girl in the third mission broke my heart too

[granite pilot]

well it's not exactly battle of Stalingrad though is it

[young wedge]

This game is literally hell

[granite pilot]

SWAT 4 is more Comfy I think

[young wedge]

It’s kinda the same game, isn’t it?

Just very old

[granite pilot]

yeah SWAT 4 is officially Retro this year

but I first played it in 2017

still waiting on that steam release

a shitty remaster perhaps

[covert aurora]

Gotta love the enviremental storytelling

[tacit gull]

god i pray not

deus ex remastered is enough of a warning

[sage trout]

Hi, im using rtx 4070, i downloaded all graphics update, my replay system is enabled but doesnt save any games from both multiplayer and single player, nobody can solve this

I already reinstalled game

I have 1 tb storage ssd

[lost inlet]

That’s why the LSPD is so poor, they gave each SWAT member access to GPNVGs.

[quasi coral]

So weird to me

Like, prefer is reasonable, I mean, the dark atmosphere with a beam of light sounds nice

[lofty path]

I get people kicking from lobbies for not knowing going non-lethal, but for using NVGs is dumb

[quasi coral]

But it being more effective over NVG's is just kinda bs

[quasi coral]

Ain't no damn way that happened

[lofty path]

Yep

[quasi coral]

That's like kicking someone for using Steel over Ceramic

Definitely not true officers, absolutely NOT ready

[young wedge]

What’s the best btw?

I wonder what to wear between ceramic and steel
Btw I have a super-heavy build

[quasi coral]

Steel, but if you're playing Campaign and you got armorer you can go ahead with Ceramic

[young wedge]

Why?

[quasi coral]

Armorer increases durability on ceramic by 50%(According to an article)

The only bad thing about Ceramic is that it'll eventually break, Steel doesn't(Although Steel makes you a little slower and also has the risk of shrapnel damage to your other limbs, it isn't as bad as you'd think though)

[thick dome]

armor impacts your acceleration. full heavy steel i think was about a .5 sec impact to going from 0 to 100 speed. I just use full steel because..why not.

[quasi coral]

Gotta keep yourself safe y'know?

[lost inlet]

Heavy as in heavy vest or just the most amount of protection possible?

[young wedge]

All of this

Everything that makes me heavier and more protected then

All my AI teams is like that

[lost inlet]

Then heavy full coverage steel even though I don’t recommend you going with that setup.

[quasi coral]

It's a good setup for one specific purpose

Pushing the threat

[lost inlet]

Shield in the corner:

[quasi coral]

Shields are for nerds gng

[lost inlet]

That’s spot is for optiwand user.

[quasi coral]

You are not shit talking my glorious Mirror Gun

Honestly it feels too overpowered in a sense, I don't know if that's just me, so I use it with the Picture-in-Picture mode to make it less "good"

[lost inlet]

I don’t use it, i leave it for my swat bots to do it since they can see in the dark.

[quasi coral]

True.. I don't let my AI use it anymore because when they do they get into that clipping into each other bug

And I'm damn tired of falling my team back in again

Not to mention if I do that, theres a small chance they'll open the door with no order or command to, and if theres a trap

[lost inlet]

I haven’t that happened to me yet, at least i think so but as long it doesn’t deactivates them then isn’t really a big deal.

[quasi coral]

For me it kinda does, there was one moment they clipped into each other and a suspect ran through, when they clip into each other they are forced on low ready to avoid friendly fire

[unborn coral]

I js had the Bug on relapse where the civilian doctors w the bomb vests strapped to them js would not comply despite me & my team shouting at them, meleeing them, beanbagging them, tazering them, ETC
So i’m js wondering if any1 knows how to Fix that w/ out restarting the mission..it can rlly ruin S runs

[brave torrent]

Anybody here with edgy asf gifs send them to me

[jolly verge]

Bug since Home Invasion. For S runs the only way is restart or you can incap civi and cuff but you wont get S

[unborn elbow]

do walking affect accuracy?

[jolly verge]

Your gun sway more if you not slow down

[foggy dagger]

Hey would it be a good idea for the devs to add a MOVING TARGET TO THE SHOOTING RANGE??? I keep fucking Up my shots bc I miss a moving target like a dumbass

[quasi coral]

I love the dual render scopes, it definitely gives a very big level of immersion, even if the scopes aren't done correctly (YET)

Though, my one complaint is that the game itself is super bad on my FPS and so I have to activate super resolution, and that decreases the quality of the scope picture and that really sucks

[torpid onyx]

the PiP optics don't really help that matter

but I prefer having the pip optics then not

[quasi coral]

Duh

[surreal pelican]

In the Home Invasion DLC missions, are those hurricane sirens I hear that are winding down at the start of the mission?

It's the horn-like sounding that goes lower and mellower

[gritty hollow]

should i launch in dx12 or dx11

ok 11

[deep sentinel]

Yeah

That's like the whole point of the dlc

[surreal pelican]

Ah aight, I thought it was something else

[surreal pelican]

Which team member do you give your shield to? Alpha or Charlie?

[whole plume]

Finally beat Oil Rig one Solo

Wasn't too bad tbf

[torpid onyx]

does not matter

you're team will position themselves in accordance to their gadgets when breaching so shield will generally be opposite of your breacher and first though the doorway

[torpid onyx]

unless your stack is one one side then he should be second in the stsck first though the door

really the only significant thing to account for is what gadgets your red and blue team have comparably because like if you have your c2/breaching gadget exclusively on one team and don't have some sort of breaching tool on blue team then it might be a bit more difficult to order synchronised breaches

depends how you wanna play

[surreal pelican]

I give mine equal numbers of C2, flashbangs and wedges

[modern forge]

I've discovered the best way to get suspects to comply
Give them a snickers, you aren't you when you're hungry.

[gritty dome]

this is actually a good ad

[gritty dome]

WAIT I HAVE WATCHED YOUR VIDEOS

[modern forge]

Thats an insane coincidence ngl

[gritty dome]

fr

you played that vr game

[modern forge]

Indeed

[gritty dome]

i forgot its name but it was a shooter

[modern forge]

Tactical Assault VR, If you ever pick up a vr headset you should 100% pick it up.
I actually have a full length video on introducing a friend to TAVR for the first time.

[gritty dome]

100%, the game looks very cool

[modern forge]

It's also one of the best feeling VR shooters imo
Definitely better than pavlov or Tabor lol, both those games have horrible feeling guns.

Plus TAVR's quite compatible with physical gunstocks which makes it so much better

[gritty dome]

hmmmm ok

new player friendly game it seems

[modern forge]

Somewhat? Definitely some things that need ironing out.
It's early access but it's getting close to being finished.

Just avoid public lobbies if you get it, stick to matchmaking in their discord or with friends.

[gritty dome]

Aight

Will take it into account when getting my first VR

[modern forge]

Yeah generally avoid anything public in VR.
Just a lot of children

Unless you get into PCVR games

[modern forge]

Also neat fact, one of the co-founders of TAVR's publisher (not the same as the developer, publishers just help with outreach) actually made the RoN VRO mod.

Virtual Reality Oasis co-founded 2080 games, which currently is publishing TAVR (and Gunman contracts)

[gritty dome]

Oooooo

[gritty dome]

2000+ GAMES ?!?!?!?!?!?!?

[modern forge]

No the publisher studio is named 2080

[tacit gull]

they made every game on the planet

[dense wind]

where is like the .ini for the settings stored? Keep getting this issue where the game doesn't properly save some of my keybinds.

Hold low ready, check mag, toggle attachment. Those binds don't save I always gotta set it up before playing a map.

[tacit gull]

If you're gonna change keybinds have fun with unreal's ini binding system working on key id's

[gritty dome]

Oh

[tacit gull]

Engine.ini is probably in appdata

[cedar mulch]

Coyote isn't as good-looking as the original design; I reckon Void hasn't been improved properly.

[keen rover]

is the friendly AI smart enough to not die when you tell them to clear a room or hallway

[tacit gull]

no

the friendly AI isn't smart enough to walk into rooms let alone clear them

[modern forge]

No

[wind gyro]

me when i say the truth

[modern forge]

I had a teammate backpedal into an entirely different room down a hallway when I told him to stack up.
RoN AI are something

[rugged isle]

Depends..sometimes they clear too much, sometimes they walk backward into a hallway pointing anywhere beside in front of them

[cedar mulch]

Since losing key personnel, VOID's programming has deteriorated significantly.

[thick dome]

hit the reset to default button..then redo your binds.

they should stick after that

[keen rover]

I swear even SWAT 4 has better AI

and SWAT 4 AI is stupid

[keen rover]

I mean technically RoN is a co-op game first

[thick dome]

wish you could have the option to have 1 or 2 AI with you when playing 2 person. each player gets a AI battle buddy

aka, equipment mule or rear guard

[keen rover]

what do the AI even do with laser sight

[thick dome]

or at the very least increase equipment slots when playing 2 player

[keen rover]

I mean it is remarkable, remarkably stupid

[gritty dome]

i hope they actually deliever

i do not want to die inside by their unrealistic unexpectations

[rugged isle]

I think they might get a buff in accuracy..maybe..not sure it the attachments actually help them or it's just cosmetic for ai

[modern forge]

Lol, guessing this was from the 1.0 devlog on steam or is this upcoming?

[lone cloud]

what game is this

[pliant frost]

Aside from stingers penalizing you for teamhits, which is better: stingers or flashbangs?

[gritty dome]

flash

i use flash for medium armed

stingers for highly armed

use a combo

[pliant frost]

What are the advantages of flashbangs?

[sullen mural]

Can anyone teaxh me some tactics im pretty new

[jolly verge]

Stingers have 2m more radius and higher damage

[jolly verge]

It's does not cause FF anymore

[jolly verge]

1.0

[tacit gull]

swat 4 ai will walk facing forwards in rooms so its +1

[hybrid belfry]

How do I play Ironman mode in co-op

[tacit gull]

you host a coop lobby and the player who dies uninstalls the game

[hybrid belfry]

whoever dies has to kill themselves in life

[thick dome]

flash had 2 advantages over sting.

1. no FF
2. you can flash yourself/friendlies and still function pretty well, if you are wearing AF goggles. singers, nope

stinger adv.. more reliable and slightly larger radius effect

[trail vigil]

Any good EU Units around?

[keen rover]

it blinds

[marsh lark]

You can always check #📌unit-promo

[languid creek]

Rip ready or not man it was so good for like 2-3 months. I’ll return at some point but seeing such a great game get released on console and then get 0 love and minimal support is a little heartbreaking. The 3 confirmed maps just aren’t enough.. yeah I’m a greedy bastard whatever

[heady spade]

are we fr

[heady spade]

nah devs are the greedy ones

[sharp lagoon]

idk why but im stuck on red team and i cant scroll with mmd to gold or blue

[proven dagger]

is there any info on the upcoming update like a date or idk

[wind gyro]

q1 2026

[prime spear]

When Gratr stepped off from moderator, him and the community cheered.

[tacit gull]

i'm still here though

[prime spear]

But when IIIIIIIIII

Ask a blonde woman if she’ll eat that piece of cake, I get boo-ed away?

[fading herald]

Anyone else know about the hidden graffiti in san uriel?

[tacit gull]

one day again

[covert hamlet]

the PIP optics are rough to use because they didn’t take make then sit them closer to the screen. they’re super awkward to use even at long range because your sight picture is so tiny, your gun wobbles a ton when moving you can barely ever keep a sight picture on a target

the suppression affect makes them unusable the second suspects shoot back too

[raw igloo]

Hi so I’m trying to decide if I should buy this game. Just wondering is this game like scary realistic? And is there a way I knoe it sounds dumb to make the game easy where your team does not get stressed and make it where your screen does not shakes when you get shot and stuff

[sick spade]

Depends on how you define scary, it certainly has very graphic material and covers very sensitive topics. In the time I have played there has been moments where I have felt a little stressed due to the high intensity of the situation (but I’m not one to get super anxious playing games so it’s different depending on the person). That being said there are ways to avoid fully immersing yourself like getting some friends on you just want to have a good time and don’t really care about the intensity

As for the teammates you can progress through quick play which gives you random Ai every time and they don’t carry over to the next mission, removing the whole stress mechanic from the Commander Mode (story mode of sorts) and there is an “easy” mode called casual and many tools (like the mirror gun) that make the game a bit more streamlined

For your 3rd question I am not sure someone else will have to answer that

[light wagon]

Is there any update on when the next update will be out (multi rail attachment system, carry handle etc)?

[light wagon]

Yes!
Some of these missions are absolutely terrifying in my opinion, however this effect goes away after becoming more experience. There is an easy mode and different accessibility options.

[magic hearth]

@quasi coral Amazing recreation you did! awesome stuff

[pure blaze]

👅

[raw igloo]

Bet thanks I may get the game then

[light wagon]

Def get it at least while it's on sale

[raw igloo]

How about the bomb missions how are they

[covert aurora]

I saw what you mean! Omg!

[quasi coral]

Agreed, although they are still useful(SOMETIMES) and very cool, which is why tons have asked for the scopes to be closer or atleast an option for it to be closer

[quasi coral]

Holy, many thanks

It doesn't seem like it but I'm extremely happy one of you guys saw it

[covert aurora]

Also like to note, Martin is part of the art team 🙂

And a narrative writer 😛

[stable kernel]

Martain

Who is this Martain?

[raw igloo]

Well just got the game decided to get the deluxe version. Probably will play it tomorrow

[torpid onyx]

yeah it would be helpful if you could adjust your eye relief

[covert aurora]

welcome on in cadet! 🙂

[sick spade]

Nice!

[torpid onyx]

remember to turn your bodycam off

[raw igloo]

I feel so bad was on the second mission took me one other try my team did not protect me I was arresting a guy and got shot from over head. But the streamer came running to the door thought he had a gun in his hand so I blasted him to turn out he did not have a gun

[lost inlet]

Guess you’ve killed the streamer’s furry brother.

[vale needle]

sins of the father is such bullshit, especially getting shot from dudes outside because the big glass entrance

i walked across the upstairs and they still one shot me from outside like what

[thick dome]

I usually shoot the furry on 23mb on principal

[thick dome]

for sure

[modest bear]

man, it feels really unfair that suspects have invincible arms

their hands, torso, and body are damageable but their arms? The things that hold and actuate their weapons that, if damaged, would render them unable to shoot at you? Nah, shooting at those does nothing

also why are suspects teleporting when I blink my eyes

Why don't targets slow down when I shoot them like I do when they shoot even in my direction

[craggy fable]

cause game silly

[modest bear]

like, the beanbag shotgun should NOT be the only gun that stuns enemies when you shoot them in the chest

because that's what happens when you get shot with a bullet, vest or not

did they increase the self-inflicted flashbang damage or something?

my flash goggles don't do shit anymore

also suspects are shooting through walls?

ok yeah this is utter bullshit, why are suspects shooting through foot-thick walls

they've nerfed too much since I last played

[modest bear]

why tf did they add railings everywhere if I can't throw grenades through them

[frigid sand]

your best option right now is to destroy their arms with a shotgun

[modest bear]

sure

but if i shoot their arms with the beanbag shotgun it should at least stop them from shooting for ~3 seconds

[frigid sand]

100% agree with you dude

[scarlet flax]

Shoulda seen pre AI nerf.

[scarlet flax]

Are you playing on hard mode?

[prime kiln]

Has judges wiki page always been like that or am I missing something

[reef sequoia]

Whats y’all’s favorite Scope / Optic if you had to choose between these 2?

1 - Red Dot Scope
2 - EO Tech Scope

Me Personally, Im Choosing Red Dot.

[chilly thorn]

Guys have you heard that the Adam update drops soon

Im excited for the new blood it looks insane!

[keen rover]

are public lobbies/playing with randoms a bad idea?

[keen rover]

adam smasher?

[chilly thorn]

They need to make ROE stricter honestly

For maps like Neon Tomb it makes sense to shoot on sight but like Crackhouse?

For example you can shoot a suspect who is unarmed and actively surrendering with ZERO punishment

[tacit gull]

Oh yeah ROE along with anything that makes the player think before shooting was hard nerfed in EA

[chilly thorn]

Its so fucking stupid

like especially with difficulties being added ROE should be like a main priority for the devs to get right

[tacit gull]

ROE hasn't been touched in hard mode

which is kind of ridiculous, i mean i think ROE would have been an amazing way to set apart hard mode rather than just making suspect snap to you again

[chilly thorn]

The fact that you can shoot somebody if they surrender as long as you do it while the animation is playing is just

absurd

you basically only get unauthorized use of force if they are actively on their knees

[tacit gull]

I get that there needs to be a grace period so people dont get bullshit penalties but

how it is currently is just absurd

And it definetly leads to players in pubs abusing it to shoot surrenders

[chilly thorn]

I don't really see a point of a grace period since 90% of the time when they surrender they wont actively be shooting you

so its the players fault for making that mistake

Maybe they should have a mechanic where they drop their weapons and make it clear to you that they are planning on surrendering before leaving cover?

[tacit gull]

you can't guess that the suspect is gonna surrender the second your 5.56 enters his eye

[chilly thorn]

I think the whole surrendering system needs to be much more indepth as its like the main focus of the game

[cedar mulch]

Is the AK103 merely a modernised AKM?

[tacit gull]

Yeah i think so, it uses black polymer for its hand touchy parts rather than wood

the 100 series is like different role AK's like the 105 i think is a carbine and the 104 shoots a different caliber

[chilly thorn]

Like why are their only like 3 animations for fake surrendering and why are they incredibly obvious.

[tacit gull]

Actually i think the 103 would be like a newer ak-74 since it shoots 545

[tacit gull]

They're always gonna be incredibly obvious if you play the game enough, it's also done for gameplay reasons

[chilly thorn]

I don't see how fake surrenders being obvious would make the gameplay better especially since the animations are super easy to learn making the game predictable

[tacit gull]

Because being able to see what the suspect is doing is important, fake surrenders are there to punish you for not keeping an eye on suspects, not to kill you because the guy with a backpack as armor is a secret FSB agent

[cedar mulch]

Its appearance rate is far too low; I've only ever seen carshop' Los Locos and the Russia Mafia using them. Beyond that, hardly anyone else.

[tacit gull]

I dont see why people in america would have that over the way cheaper soviet AK's

[cedar mulch]

The AKM is far too prevalent; it ought not to be so commonplace in the United States. Makarov is the same.

[chilly thorn]

And suspects being completely unpredictable will really make you keep their eyes on them, and they its not like they cant shoot their gun while they are raising it (unless it fucks up, which is possible i'm not denying that) The animation of someone reaching behind them should be enough to know they are trying something.

[tacit gull]

It makes sense for the russian mafia since they have their pick and they know that gun well

[tacit gull]

Well yeah that's exactly my point, the fake surrenders are obvious so that if you're looking at them they're easy to intercept

[cedar mulch]

However, given that Los Locos and the Russian Mafia are in a partnership, I suppose it makes sense that they use AK103s and AKMs. But the other levels are rather peculiar

Other organisations should not be using the Makarov or AKM at all.

[tacit gull]

I think currently suspects have glitched shooting states where they'll have like a MASSIVE delay to the point where they'll fire shots while surrendering

[chilly thorn]

My problem is that its obvious before they even do the motion of grabbing for their gun, like the pistol drop animation looks completely different then the pistol fakesurrender.

I think this could just be solved by having more variety in animations like theres only like 7 different surrender animations

[tacit gull]

The makarov is a cheap piece of shit surplus pistol that probably costs nothing and AK's are super spread worldwide, especially the old ones, not so much the newer ones

[cedar mulch]

I recall that in the 2020 and 2019 versions, the suspect animations were considerably smoother than they are now.

[tacit gull]

I don't think the suspect animations have changed

And i can guarantee you that's not true as suspects usually just instantly transferred to different animations without any in-between

[chilly thorn]

they still do that now, sprinting animations have no build up just immediently full sprint speed.

[tacit gull]

You'd have a suspect in a chill state and with perfect movement he'd bring his weapon up using only his arms and instakill you

[chilly thorn]

I think one of the big problems is that the suspect don't have any animations for turning around and instead the spin around like a statue

[tacit gull]

They do have animations for turning around but sometimes they just look really bad
