[median egret]

alright you win i believe you
will tell this to everyone

[median egret]

im not from stalker 2 :dd

[simple turret]

holy gottem

[bleak yacht]

is the dlc money?

[median egret]

yes
dlc gives you money on your bank account

[plucky dirge]

artefakt

[bleak yacht]

how much?

[median egret]

check for yourself because its different for everyone

[jolly trench]

stalker 2 is literally so ass, horrible system requirements i cant even run it, also people keep saying this lame excuse "the devs are in a warzone" NO THE FUCK THEY ARENT, THEY MOVED TO PRAGUE LIKE A YEAR AGO. also they tried to fucking slip an NFT scam into the game but it got cancelled when players were mad, also how is any of this an excuse to release a literal fucking unfinished game full of bugs, it doesnt even have an explorable CNPP like every other stalker game

[lilac hamlet]

Is there a place I can talk spoilers? I have some lore questions?

[median egret]

oh thanks god you wasn't typing huge troll message to me
also good valid point

[modest fern]

You can use the ron chat and spoiler it if you want

[median egret]

i think its #🪹the-sepulchre-arg im not sitting here however

[modest fern]

but there is not a dedicated lore channel

[lilac hamlet]

Thanks both of you, I have some questions about what’s going on in the games story and didn’t know where

[simple turret]

real, also xray multiplayer extension dropped so the entirety of call of pripyat can be played coop which is far cooler to me lol

[jolly trench]

oh sick

[pine musk]

Think they also started on the other two

[jolly trench]

also people keep praising the dev team of stalker 2 for shit like the animations which are basic bitch mw2019 copies, and just little shit like the rain drops on your gun, (a default unreal engine effect)
bullshit like this pisses me off. GSC is a shit greedy company now, just like all the other ones like activision, nintendo, void, etc

[fringe quest]

I wish they would remove the wall passthrough. It annoys me when ONE NPC gets stuck and the whole run is ruined.

[jolly trench]

also the shitty postpunk music pandering to tiktok stalker edits

[pine musk]

The atmosphere is there for me to enjoy it. Small bugs are fine as well, I get one sometimes where people are urinating randomly while walking etc.

But I get broken quests that cannot be completed, some of which have major rammifications. Other times the game has a memory leak. And the A-Life system just isn't implemented whatsoever.

These get fixed? Yeah it's aight. I like it at least.

[median egret]

some of the praisings can be an ad if we talk about vids

[jolly trench]

also GSC decided to go with shitslop UE5 instead of Xray2

[pine musk]

They sold Xray2 ages ago anyways I think. They were going under.

[somber prism]

I remember in the old hotel map there would be a spot where the friendly AI would get stuck

[jolly trench]

well just make it again but different. anyways i just lose so much respect when devs choose UE5, literally the worst game engine ever made

[median egret]

now your ai can stuck everywhere

[pine musk]

Engine is fine, but it does add to everything feeling too homogenous.

[jolly trench]

UE5 isnt even made for games. its an animation/movie CGI engine. the game stuff is just slapped on there. UE4 is a game engine. UE5 is not. also UE5 is optimized like shit, only well optimized UE5 game is fortnite and sadly thats also trash

[pine musk]

UE5 itself runs fine honestly. Ray-tracing is a useless gimmick.

[modest fern]

I shall take UE5 for more beautiful games, TFW is an art masterpiece and they don't try to hide how demanding it is on hardware

[pine musk]

Which tend to be tethered together. Baked lighting or path lightning is always superior though.

[jolly trench]

UE5 is optimized horribly, UE4 had raytracing, UE4 has the same graphics as UE5. UE5 doesnt even look better at all and just runs worse.

people were making these "photorealistic" games in the 2010s with UE4, years before UE5. and they looked exactly the same

[jolly trench]

what's TFW

[unreal shard]

Isn’t bodycam UE5? That game looks too realistic

[median egret]

transport for whales

[modest fern]

https://tenor.com/view/the-forever-winter-eurasian-mother-courage-eurasia-euruska-factions-gif-5513206935586637470

[jolly trench]

bodycam could be made and look exactly the same on UE4

[modest fern]

Yes

But it's not that complex, it's mostly shaders

There's a reason two teens could do it, asset dump, and then run off

[unreal shard]

Huh. Wonder why RoN doesn’t do that. That sounds simple enough

[jolly trench]

thing about bodycam is that it doesnt even look that good if you remove the shaders, its all the camera distortion and grain that hides the imperfections. its like why bf3 kinda looks better than bf4 because it has that shitty blue filter

[modest fern]

RoN isn't trying to be hyper real

[median egret]

because ron is not about bodycam view

[unreal shard]

Ik im talking about the graphics

[jolly trench]

fuck is this

[modest fern]

The Forever Winter, it's a horror extraction shooter, love the art direction

[jolly trench]

man even bodycam isnt about bodycam view, you still see through your eyes.

[median egret]

what if i play this game through bodycam too

[pine musk]

I liked the idea of body cam but ye, the camera position wasn't enough. Should have been a chest or helmet view.

[jolly trench]

oh ive heard of it, but the thing is it could be made to look the exact same and run better on UE4. UE4 is superior to UE5 in literally every way unless you are a movie maker.

[unreal shard]

No it’s more of helmet cam. The scopes are terrible in that game

[somber prism]

This, its just normal first person but now with a fisheye effect

[jolly trench]

UE5 literally has zero benefits, and any minor benefits it does have are way overshadowed by how much worse it runs than UE4.

[somber prism]

Why the hell is there a 30 second delay for the chat 😭😭😭 why

[jolly trench]

server sucks, game sucks, life sucks, jump off the oil rig (both of us, at the same time)

[somber prism]

❤️

[jolly trench]

my bad gang, may have been too much there

[median egret]

its okay,let it out for your feelings

[somber prism]

Do y'all think they're gonna continue on with the #🪹the-sepulchre-arg

[gray cedar]

sounds like someone is angry that they have poor performance, idk if my laptop just pulls out some crack for this game or what but I runs great, also try using dlss it is good stuff

[jolly trench]

why is this song in my playlist, worst song ever

[modest fern]

Yes, Kaminsky was just busy with the DLC

[jolly trench]

man i have no issues with RoN, it runs pretty meh but its not an issue.

[somber prism]

Next DLC is about d platoon raiding a MLO hideout only to see zombies in tac gear

[jolly trench]

i only care about FPS if it goes below 40

[gray cedar]

so many people complain but then have like a 10 year old pc

[magic nacelle]

nah next dlc takes d platoon to Afghanistan

[unreal shard]

It’s ok for me. I usually like having background sound so I turn the tv on and play the game but then my game goes from 60 to 25 💀

[jolly trench]

some very light supernatural shit would be cool, little enough that people cant bitch about realism but just some slight like, weird stuff related to the cults and shit

[median egret]

hell yeah

[waxen latch]

fuck it, surrealist shooter

https://tenor.com/view/absolute-cinema-absolute-cinema-meme-absolute-cinema-meme-gif-11615201256306424437

[somber prism]

"This is a swat game not a zombie sim" 🤓🤓

[magic nacelle]

to be fair ready or not isnt a realistic game; it's a game that uses realistic mechanics.

[calm ravine]

Anyone Know If Ready Or Not Is Going On Sale Soon?

[jolly trench]

id love some stuff like maybe if you get close to dead bodies (not ones you make but map spawned ones) they talk to you quietly on some maps, and it could be related to mental health issues of judge

[modest fern]

Probably winter sale

[slender whale]

Why the fuck is there a guy booty butt naked

[magic nacelle]

"HES REACHING! STOP RESISTING! STOP FUCKING RESISTING!"

[modest fern]

Less clothes = less government tracking

[slender whale]

I can see his pixelated balls bro

[median egret]

dead people wont talk vro

[calm ravine]

Alrighty, My Friend Is Gonna Get It For Me If It Does

[magic nacelle]

someone just played thru narcos didn't they

[waxen latch]

winter arc

those who know

still water

dark water

[somber prism]

Map will be the taliban leaders palace and there are 200 armed suspects, there will even be a hidden basement housing another 500 suspects and they will be armed with PKMs and AKs, not only that they have to fight off the talibans blackhawks

[jolly trench]

vro did you even read it? its like supernatural stuff and like judges PTSD, dead people would talk in that situation

[plucky dirge]

they dont..?

[waxen latch]

and dead children in the basement

[median egret]

tiktok consumed noo

[jolly trench]

we already got that

[unreal shard]

They need to make a whole operation afghan😂

[magic nacelle]

next dlc will take us on a joint contract between the US army Rangers in a campaign across Afghanistan to dismantle a cp/human trafficking/Mexican cartel ring in possession of chemical weapons

[jolly trench]

can we get waco siege map?

[median egret]

is judge getting lit in next update?🙏

[waxen latch]

more dead children, the tactical shooting genre yerns for dark n gritty ol scenery

[jolly trench]

LMAO mexican cartel in afghanistan. funniest thing is that void would actually do this

[magic nacelle]

a proper siege map similar to the narrative created in hospital but with more Waco-like themese would be fire icl

[unreal shard]

A mission to disable nukes around the world

[waxen latch]

well

[somber prism]

They are also linked to the spider somehow and will always have dead children in every map cause realism means dark and griddy

[magic nacelle]

exactly "they've been using the Afghanistan ports as a resupply point"

[jolly trench]

yes

[jolly trench]

half life 2 beta gark and driddy

[magic nacelle]

they will also have tier 1 operators posted up with heavy armor and every door will have an invisible ied

[magic nacelle]

additionally the second the key npc hears any noise including suspects walking he will trigger an active shooter swap

[median egret]

alright, you are gonna be new dev for ron lore

[magic nacelle]

don't give void any ideas

[somber prism]

Too easy, the suspects are actually rogue special ops soldiers armed with PKMs and uses SCARs

[jolly trench]

hire me void, i mean i came up with some awesome totally making sense lore with that copypasta

[somber prism]

Tbf afghanistan does have poppy fields and cartels prov gonna want some for their drug trade

[magic nacelle]

they're also ex USIA chemical weapon developers who all have chemical bomb vests, there will also be a nuke at the end of a map that has no interactivity or use

[modest fern]

my favorite narcotics lore

The Afghani poppy fields vs the Asian fent farms

[jolly trench]

the nuke isnt even brought up in the briefing or by any characters even the suspects

[somber prism]

Even better, the suspects who are unarmed will always race to the nuke and detonate it if d platoon don't pay enough attention

[waxen latch]

"TOC...... We have a problem......There is a room full of nukes"

[magic nacelle]

the briefing will mention that there "might be explosives" and there will be a civilian guarding it modeled after Tony stark who will repeat the same 3 irrelevant voicelines every time you pass by hkm

[somber prism]

"Roger that entry team, tag em and keep moving"

[waxen latch]

CLOSE

DA

DOORS

[jolly trench]

no its literally just a prop at the end of the map and not brought up ever by anyone lol

[magic nacelle]

the briefing will also predict 4 suspects on scene when in reality there's 27

[unreal shard]

They need to make a mission where a guy is a killer clown that kills ppl and the swat team is dispatched to detain or kill the clown but the swat car enters a dark forest where the clown is believed to be. The forest is dark and foggy full of tricks and trip mines planted by the clown. Then after the team passes the danger they stop in front of a house and goes in but faces off with the clown separating the team and killing them one by one.

[somber prism]

27 is too merciful, theres at least 60

[glass mulch]

Blackbird if you want to not interrfer with a ferderal investagation i suggest you follow orders >:)

[magic nacelle]

is this a joke

[median egret]

im gonna jump off oilrig as john say

[waxen latch]

why do i feel someone has been asking for a clown level for years now

[unreal shard]

It would be a fire misson

[magic nacelle]

the clown level was inside of them all along

[somber prism]

..and he somehow has connections to the spider and he has dead children in his basement cause ready or nut is dark and griddy and children being dead is derk and griddy

[waxen latch]

void studio

[unreal shard]

I would grind until the clown is dead

[waxen latch]

the clown level

[jolly trench]

half life 2 beta gark and driddy

[magic nacelle]

I feel like a killer clown map or a surreal map would be funny as hell if we could just waste the killer the second he's spotted

[somber prism]

Diddy is a cut character in half life 2 😱😱

[magic nacelle]

like all this narrative story telling leads up to a final jumpscare and then you just fucking waste the guy

[jolly trench]

id love some more indications of declining mental health in judge, i actually think dead bodies speaking is a cool idea. only if you get really close tho, and still quiet. and only map spawned bodies not ones that were killed in the mission

[somber prism]

Me with a full auto shotgun mod: 🗿

[magic nacelle]

but since he demonstrated intent to surrender 45 minutes ago it's a uof violation and Judge gets demoted to desk duty

[median egret]

no please

[unreal shard]

Me with a rifle that fires buckshots mod 🗿

[jolly trench]

why not? it makes sense and fits the dark and griddy theme of the game

[somber prism]

Tbf he is a cia sleeper agent and we have to assume he's too souless for his mental health to decline

[magic nacelle]

judges mental state should reflect his teams; anxious/crisis team means anxious/crisis judge

we need ptsd attacks in the load out screen guys

[jolly trench]

in the trailer the therapist is talking to him, thus he obviously does have declining mental health

[somber prism]

I remember how i would solo a map on campaign mode and my team will always be stressed regardless 😭😭

[somber prism]

Or it could be another generic swat officer but idk

[jolly trench]

well commander mode is noncanon. quickplay is the canon mode. prescott, king, and the other ones

[jolly trench]

why would it be when judge is the focus of the rest of the trailer

[somber prism]

Fair enough

[jolly trench]

anybody know what mods have been updated to dlc2 yet

[median egret]

i mean uh,judge definitely visits doc and if he can get this type of hallucinations its quite dangerous to keep this dude as commander, however make this system be like black ops storyline shit and im down

[median egret]

they stress for you

[unreal shard]

The US military turns men into physical killing machines therefore most experienced soliders’s mental health declines

[somber prism]

I remember how swan's old voice actor before 1.0 shouts at people in lowercase 💀

[jolly trench]

i think hes fine as a commander, i mean a little paranoid schizophrenia never hurt anybody, right?

[wind cave]

That's army rangers my man badass 🙂

[median egret]

yeah whatever this city is done for anyway

[somber prism]

The CIA said "its ready or not time, judge" and proceeded to MK Ultra all over judge's brain

[solar ivy]

Canted aim broken for anyone else?

[median egret]

nuh

[glass mulch]

no, it should be o on your keyboard, unless you rebound it

[somber prism]

Do y'all think prescott is the type of guy to have a punisher logo on his ford pickup truck

[glass mulch]

🤔

maybe

[somber prism]

Idk he looks like it

Eli is definitely a suburban dad type

[glass mulch]

i love Eli

[jolly trench]

ive always been a prescott guy

[somber prism]

Eli Webb ❤️❤️❤️

[solar ivy]

I think I figured it out, while I did a safe playthrough it may be an old mod potentially

[jolly trench]

king is also cool

[somber prism]

I miss his old arrest dialogue where he mocks the suspect when arresting them

"A duh duh duhhh shut the hell up"

[glass mulch]

ah ok! that could do it!

[glass mulch]

I have enjoyed Eli since early access days

🙂

[somber prism]

Swan looks innocent too lol

Just shouts at people in lowercase

[glass mulch]

"you could lower your weapon please"

[jolly trench]

literally peak

[somber prism]

"Put your hands up please??" 🥺🥺🥺

[glass mulch]

yep!

[jolly trench]

as ive said before, we need some freak in ready or not. please add a rare arrest animation where judge gives the suspect a lil tickle

[glass mulch]

🤨

[somber prism]

What if they just say "harder daddy" when you tap them in the head after the arrest animation

[jolly trench]

no, i just want a little bit of freak, thats too much. i dont want enough that snowflakes will get butthurt over

[somber prism]

Freaky or not

[jolly trench]

real

[mighty ibex]

Is there a way I can revert the update

BAN HIM

[somber prism]

But instead of arresting suspects they just let the suspects rest their head on their lap and play with the suspects hair while the suspects vents out their problems to judge

[jolly trench]

cant be banned, my suggestion is assuming you already own the game, then its not bad

[mighty ibex]

I mean on steam

[jolly trench]

i dont think you can

[ripe scarab]

There's this post: #1275941842378166333 message but what's written is for downgrading to UE 4 1.0 RON if you want to downgrade to home invasion update you have to figure that out by reading the downgrade guide linked there. (Youtube tutorials exist for it as well)

[mighty ibex]

Where is this

[zenith sonnet]

Click the link

[edgy canyon]

Hey All! Going for the Medal of Valor achievement, but I have 17/18 maps showing on Steam, but in game, I have all S rank listed.
Is there any way to tell which maps were S from MP vs SP? Am I doomed to repeat them all?

[quaint shuttle]

Does anyone know why textures of my character hands are so low poly despite me being on epic settings?

[crisp plover]

e

[icy tapir]

Did most mods get FUBAR'd with this update?>

[modest fern]

Seems like the important ones

[icy tapir]

[ripe scarab]

Yes most mods did cosmetics for example work but a lot of the good ones are dead now some mods like gunfighter have received updates and with simple mod menu getting updated some mods requiring that work again too.

[icy tapir]

Thankfully gunfighter was one of the main mods I had. Good to hear that dude is just on top of it!

I'll just wait a week or two so my suite is updated for it. Excited for the rig map

[ripe scarab]

It was an emergency update so you may not exactly find everything working 100%

[icy tapir]

copy.

Thank ya'll for the info!

[jovial timber]

Is it normal for my disk usage to drop significantly at the 98 percent mark for verifying files for RON?

[formal belfry]

For the 2 headshot leviathan how far is 30 meters?

[mighty ibex]

It’s emergency only minimum features work

[formal belfry]

Will the achievement pop mid mission or will it appear at the end?

[slender whale]

400 FPS is a bit too much '

Maybe i should run the game on epic :D

[mighty ibex]

I get 20

[slender whale]

o

[mighty ibex]

On medium

[slender whale]

Oh I prob get alot cuz i lower resolution it helps with fps

[slender whale]

cuz im on a dookie graphics card

[modest fern]

(Laughs in 50s on epic)

[slender whale]

atleast i get 100 fps on bodycam on ultra peformance 😔😔

Its really not the graphics to me, its just how the games built I judge over Gameplay not graphics

[mighty ibex]

YOU are not

[slender whale]

Rx 6500 XT is pretty garbage bro

[mighty ibex]

1030 is

[slender whale]

Like i said, Im on the lowest resolution it makes the game look smaller in appearance but higher fps

[little sleet]

Hello there, who can I talk to get permission to use sound assets for a Fallout 4 mod I’m working on?

[modest fern]

Do you mean RoN assets in Fallout 4?

[little sleet]

Yes

[modest fern]

DM @long summit

[glass mulch]

^

[little sleet]

Thank you

[mighty ibex]

1030 is

[slender whale]

I just died cuz of you 😡

and then a man walked over me with his wanker out

[slender whale]

His pixelated balls make it worse

[mighty ibex]

At least your ai didn’t kill your entire team by deciding he needed to kill more suspects

[mighty ibex]

Send me a picture

[boreal ore]

Holy, Gunfighter works fast.

[slender whale]

there literal cubes bro

[fringe quest]

How the hell do we do the 30 meters crap?

[mighty ibex]

NAH WHAT THE LITERALLY

[mighty ibex]

It has minimum features that are working with ue5 he just did a few changes

[umbral grove]

Hey yo

Anybody got any tips on how to complete the "Sleeper Agent" achievement ?

Is there a way to do it solo ? or does it need to be done by 2 or more ?

[glass mulch]

haven't worked out the right pathing on that one. So not a clue

I know i got the secret meeting one

[errant cedar]

https://tenor.com/view/arcane-arcane-season-2-jayce-gif-17996208736375604909

[umbral grove]

It's like the game asks you to speedrun the mission, but i usually get all the achievements solo since it's hard to coordinate a team and make sure they keep the 15 second mark

[glass mulch]

Nod

[umbral grove]

I don't want to use mods and i wanna do it by the book, but if anybody finds a strategy to do it, please let me know

[glass mulch]

you just gave them ideas :<

[ocean cosmos]

Question, does Richard Epcar voice one of the line sets on The Elysian, or am I hearing things?

[glass mulch]

That i am not sure

[formal belfry]

for the 30 meter one do you have to finish the mission to get the achievement

[mighty ibex]

You are schizo

[formal belfry]

Or do you get it mid mission

[mighty ibex]

Ron Tarkov ghost of tabor any tac fps shooter does make you chirp

[hallow stump]

this is gonna sound silly, but what show is that?

[modest fern]

I think Arcane?

[glass mulch]

it looks like it

[turbid jacinth]

where can i report bugs?

[ripe scarab]

Yes it’s Arcane

[turbid jacinth]

nvm, the bug has been reported already

[little onyx]

anyone knows any EU units?

[serene bay]

new update is amazing

[waxen latch]

pizza mommy or a van with two babies going 80 in the highway

choice is yours

[glass mulch]

[formal belfry]

I thought there would be speedrunners with guides already for the achievements 🥲
google searches yield very little

[glass mulch]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[runic aspen]

We can be the First

Idea for sunday RoN compleate achivment tutorial

[slender whale]

[formal belfry]

how likely will the suspect die from swat AI capping them in the head with a beanbag?

[modest fern]

One hundred percent

They shouldn't aim for the head though

[runic aspen]

They never aim to the head (skill issue)

[fringe quest]

Unless it's slot 3. That dude has 200% accuracy.

Never mind, I assume no one else has this problem.

[thick snow]

hi guys

[old heart]

This is Toc reporting, mommy made me warm milk and brought my blankie, it's nappy time fellas, put em on safe and let em hang.

[slender whale]

[old heart]

FUCK

[stiff blaze]

THESE MAPS ARE FUKIN S TIER

[mighty ibex]

Install save file

[modest fern]

I'm surprised no one has tried that on a new speedrun forum with bad rules

[mighty ibex]

Exactly lol

(Speedrun achievements starts when game installed)

[stray spire]

So mods r broken? From what I heard earlier

[mighty ibex]

Yes

[glass mulch]

to a degree yes

[stray spire]

Fun stuff

Will wait for mod updates before replaying 😂😂😂

[glass mulch]

👍

[mighty ibex]

Gunfighter has some features

[glass mulch]

gun fighter has recently been updated

[mighty ibex]

But yeah gonna wait for my ammo mods n such

[stray spire]

Nothing against the game, all my loadouts are modded so my game gonna be hella broken if I try to play 😂

[mighty ibex]

It has SOME things working that didn’t need rework

[stray spire]

Glad to see it get updates 🙂

[mighty ibex]

Yeah he’s rewriting rn

[glass mulch]

for sure

[mighty ibex]

Hope the extra ammo mods get fixed wanna use the 9m rubber

[mighty ibex]

[stray spire]

I have a lot of mods and much like the last update I figure a lot wont get updated

So might have to scrub and restart

[mighty ibex]

Yeah because it has to ruin them EVREY UPDATE

[stray spire]

That is just how it is

I havent played modded games for a long time but updates somehow can ruin every single mod

[mighty ibex]

COUGH cough open beta for update

[modest fern]

Not sure what an open beta for a mod would do if it's still going to change constantly

[stray spire]

I dont blame the devs however

[modest fern]

At that rate modders will actually be updating their mods more for the open beta

[mighty ibex]

Cough cough framework more attuned to the new update or framework dosent take as much change

[stray spire]

Im happy to have a good swat shooter

[mighty ibex]

Ong

But erm questionable decisions

[stray spire]

The only thing for me is the ais reaction time is a tad fast but other than that I dont think I can complain

[mighty ibex]

Ballistics

[stray spire]

Hm?

[stray spire]

You mean like weapon choices?

[gaunt holly]

Ai reaction time used to be even faster. That was the good ole days

[spark topaz]

Hey brothers and siblings!! I'm from Germany and love the game! What can the helicopter do in the new update?? Are there any special features of the new update. So I bought the new DLC and am currently on the yacht 🍺

[lime notch]

the chopper in all the dark waters missions, maybe except the resort but you can view the chopper and the pilot will let you know if there is a suspect/civ outside and will also flash a light at a suspect/civ which is pretty cool.

[spark topaz]

OK, thank you. But he can't shoot?

[lime notch]

yup its only for seeing suspects/civs and you can view it

to activate it you must click on the chopper icon in your tablet

and yeah the pilot will give callouts ones its activated.

[spark topaz]

wow I just tried this. Cool !!

hey is there a quick key for that?

[lime notch]

not really but if you don't view the choppers POV it will still give ya callouts on any civs or suspects outside.

[modest fern]

You can also see their searchlight when they lock onto an ai

Extra noticeable on Seraglio

[lime notch]

yes I just discovered that actually

its pretty cool not gonna lie, but pls let me chose a situation in quick play. Commander mode is cool without it but quick play needs to have it back.

its pretty hard for me to complete mirage without getting any civ killed. So got any tips on how I can finish it without civs killed?

[modest fern]

The Prince should be your priority for he holds all the cards on the Seraglio

[lime notch]

yes but he spawns randomly

so any idea where he usually spawns? in maybe like second or first floors something like that?

[modest fern]

Usually the upper floors, but he is a yapper

[lime notch]

he yaps a lot?

[modest fern]

You can kinda hear him give himself away sometimes

[lime notch]

hmmm ok

I think I am gonna have to use suppressors on my guns

maybe it will not cause him to quickly order the killing of hostages.

[smoky latch]

Hey looking for some info on the Hermit Achivment, got the watch for it but not the two steam achivments for iron mand mode

[idle pewter]

i ended up using a mod before the update that gave me 9bangers, and now that the mod is broken i have over 13 slots permanently in use if i change my grenades around, and since it doesnt recognise 9bangers as the mod isnt even installed anymore, my game just crashes
how can i fix this without deleting all of my save data

[solid cape]

Reset loadout to default

[simple turret]

wholesome ron post

[idle pewter]

thats a thing?

[modest fern]

Feedback is best in the feedback sections, it'll just get buried here

[languid sleet]

Copy that.

[solid cape]

Yes, click on presets and choose default one

[simple turret]

9bangers are so cancer in lobbies lol

[idle pewter]

i only play with friends so, eh

[solid cape]

You can also override your broken presets by saving current one with the same name, in case they cause game to crash

[modest fern]

Played coop with 9bangs yesterday, every time they threw em I thought it was them getting lit up

[agile violet]

Sounds like it might be Gunfighter mod which has recently patched for DLC2

[simple turret]

same but we sometimes open it up when we are just messing around and often get people spamming them lol

[idle pewter]

the description for the file makes it seem like only some primaries are fixed

[simple turret]

real

[agile violet]

The slots and 9bang device are also included

[modest fern]

Gunfighter was apparently "emergency" updated which means it is not 100%

[languid sleet]

I've never been more appreciative for a development team in my life. Honestly.

[agile violet]

Can confirm from my testing today that at least Basic seems to have it's big features repaired loadout wise

[idle pewter]

and devices aswell then

[languid sleet]

As far as mods are concerned I only used 1 modded map, and a mod that gave me extra equipment slots.

Both of them seem broke now but I couldn't care less. This past update is truly remarkable.

[barren jackal]

@woeful relic Hello

[north musk]

oh yeah but like we just have to wait until the mods are updated. is the mod io in game workin?

[modest fern]

In the sense of installing mods, yes

[lilac axle]

This is like the last dlc right, we’re if the host owns the dlc the lobby can play even if they don’t own the dlc themselves?

[solid cape]

Yeap

[lilac axle]

Awesome 😎

[formal belfry]

What's the most meta tactic for sleeper agent?

[flint orchid]

Hi, is lossless scaling works on ready or not at lower gpu? (Mine is rtx 2050 4gb laptop)

[sturdy solar]

yo quick question if im from sea region can i still play with others in the us or eu?

[primal walrus]

It should, worked fine on my 1660s

[broken gyro]

oh my goodness

[main owl]

Is mod io working again?

[broken gyro]

No, but Matthew Pants is now

[main owl]

.

[modest fern]

Yes, install wise

[zinc pagoda]

Guys where is the livestream thing in leviathan?

Me and my friend been searching for ages, it’s the last thing we need lol

[formal belfry]

laptop and phone on tripod next to hostages

[zinc pagoda]

Thanks bro

[placid violet]

Anyone here played insurgency sandstorm

[lilac vale]

I am too much of a lover of it. Wassup?

[mighty ibex]

Nah how balanced ammo types are

[umbral grove]

Ok so i've dedicated the whole day to finally getting all achievements of this update... However i can't still find a way to get "Sleeper Agent" has anyone completed this achievement yet ? It is the only one remaining for me at this point

[wide dove]

am i smoking or are all but 1 of the helmet customization options missing

[lilac vale]

Which one?

[wide dove]

the default, all i can see are the 2 dark waters helmets, and the 1st helmet you get in the game

[fallen sail]

we playded it

[lilac vale]

Who’s we?

[fallen sail]

me

[lilac vale]

That’s not we

[wide dove]

so am i smoking or what

[lilac vale]

Probs not

[wide dove]

theres no way they removed every helmet except 2 paid ones and the default

[fallen sail]

remove mods and reset the loadout

[flint orchid]

Gotcha, thanks man!

[wide dove]

ah yeah there they are thank you, i was aboutta uninstall and refund so fast

it was the customization unlock

[fallen sail]

that would be a dumbass thing to do

Unless VOID wants to remove all of their cash income for winter

[sturdy citrus]

Its been so long and they still havent added path tracing ??? Whats going on

[wide dove]

thats what i was saying i just bought the DLC to host for my friends but if they really removed all helmets except 2 paid ones that woulda been it for me

love the game alot but thatd be just immoral

[fallen sail]

I dont think path tracing is happening but ray tracing has been pushed way back

[wide dove]

path tracing would be crazy, game already performs spotty path tracing would kill it

[fallen sail]

exactly why its not in according to alan

[winter cloud]

what did I needed to do again to get the game to stop crashing emediatly

[placid violet]

Would you recommend it

[fallen sail]

Personally i think insurgency is better in PVP, it has superb atmosphere and sound work, however be aware that the company behind it is pretty much gone and what few content updates it gets are outsourced to other studios

It's essentially call of duty if it was le tactical

[placid violet]

Ah okay.

[placid violet]

So it’s not really milsim like squad or hardcore like hell let loose

[fallen sail]

It is somewhat hardcore but in a casual way

that is to say armor is almost never gonna save your life

[lilac vale]

Insurgency is like cod but with more tactical elements, like short TTK, no goofy skins, no slide cancelling

[fallen sail]

chinese new year

[lilac vale]

That said, PVP is very toxic

[fallen sail]

I never had much issue with PVP personally

[lilac vale]

Hey man at least less goofy then Nicki minaj skin

[neon bay]

The company behind it is gone? what?

[fallen sail]

The original team got the boot a while ago

[median egret]

remove mods,if it wont help check files

[winter cloud]

it worked thx

[median egret]

good

[winter cloud]

now ill wait for most of my 30 mods to come back XDD

[median egret]

yea,they need to be updated lol

[winter cloud]

less recoil and real blood hurt to not have

[analog isle]

Has anyone noticed ai teammate are stuck in several doors in oil rig map?

They can't transition from stack to move / clear or move to

[median egret]

yeah common glitch

[sleek granite]

Is Sleeper Agent achievement even possible?

[lilac vale]

It probs is but you need so much luck

[sleek granite]

Damn alr

[glossy lion]

Has been a consistent issue for me and my squad since 1.0

[azure sleet]

Use the shield and gas, don't arrest suspects just run by them

[echo whale]

so.... is the full ai rework ready... or not?

[sleek granite]

Alr I'll give it a go

[lilac vale]

Uh well you need to do something about them

[sleek granite]

Yeah that’s what I was about to say as well

But if anyone has the best method that possibly works for the Sleeper Agent then I’m all ears

[azure sleet]

Yeah but if you arrest them or anything, no achievement

[nimble socket]

So i tried installing mods from the in game mod menu months ago, (foolish I know) but i cannot uninstall them. I have tried to find the folder that they are kept in, the mod io folder, but its not there for me. In my Pak folder there is nothing either. Reinstalling them game doesnt clear my mods either and its just annoying at the point. Have already deleted my entire save progress once before to remove the mods and it still never worked. Any ideas? I know I can just run in safe mode but surely there has to he a way to delete these mods permanently…

[azure sleet]

So you can gas them, close doors, arrest civis and move on quickly with the shield

[lilac vale]

The achievements says arrest or incapacitate?

[azure sleet]

Pretty sure

I thought the entire challenge was that you arrest all civilians without any suspects going down-

[lilac vale]

What are you waffling about

[azure sleet]

If you can just arrest them all that's literally a walk in the park wait what

I assumed the achievement was hard because you weren't supposed to incapacitate suspects, including things like arresting them

[lilac vale]

Bro can’t read

[azure sleet]

If you can arrest them
Just use the pepper ball gun and do a normal S ranking

[azure sleet]

In my defense, my version of the achievement is more accurate to the image for it

[lilac vale]

What?! What does image have to do with the description

[azure sleet]

I mean
The image usually relates in some way

[glass mulch]

which achievement?

[azure sleet]

Like...The devil achievement is the devil
The fool is a jester

[edgy halo]

What's up with all the "unit" Clan that are recruiting, wanted me to read a document of like 70 pages long and do/fill interview pappers bigger then an IRL Interview... like wth?

[lilac vale]

That makes barley any sense but sure

[azure sleet]

Sleeper agent

[lilac vale]

Those units are the ones who have least members because of that. Find a diff one

[glass mulch]

ah the incap or arrest suspects within 15seconds of each other one

[azure sleet]

So speedrun it

[glass mulch]

gotta move quick yeah, i haven't gotten it yet

[azure sleet]

You see
Uh I thought this was the lawmaker "arrest all civis without incapacitating suspects" achievement

[glass mulch]

ah

[azure sleet]

[glass mulch]

that one isn't that bad just do a normal non-lethal run

[lilac vale]

Ummm Linch the issue isn’t killing 15 of them. The issue is finding enough of them within 15 seconds of each one

[empty dove]

exactly i'm running out of suspects to gun down after about 10-12 suspects and my 15s window then ends up

[lilac vale]

Even with no armour and lightest load out it will be so tight.

[glass mulch]

i ment the one from lawmaker

[empty dove]

yeah i'm already barely making it out alive with light armor, due to just rushing in, don't think i'll manage without armor

[lilac vale]

Oh that one, yeah I guess but also doesn’t help that it’s host bound for some reason

[empty dove]

true....

[azure sleet]

Also a friend of mine was arguing that there should be a sprint button in the game
Help

[lilac vale]

For sleeper agent there needs to be one

[empty dove]

well there isn't but does he know about low/high ready?

[azure sleet]

I told em
Too slow

[azure sleet]

You should get a Segway or a bike for doing that achievement

[lilac vale]

Sure let me go make one modded real quick

[azure sleet]

Oh phew awesome

Modded bicycle using pre existing assets...

[sleek granite]

For the Sleeper Agent do I have to report it for the incapacitated one or can I just down them and leave them be?

[solid cape]

You can kill them and go for the next, no need to report

[empty dove]

no

[sleek granite]

Ah I see

[willow folio]

which do i buy. dark waters or home invasion?

[empty dove]

it's annoying, even harder than getting all 24 missions on S lol, so much rng luck involved

[sleek granite]

Yeah true lol

[willow folio]

idk which dlc to pick

[karmic echo]

dark water maps are more fun to play imo

more difficulty than home invasion with the exception of narcos

[edgy halo]

I havent played any DLC yet, I can't find people to play with so far, so Im doing them in SP.

[willow folio]

still unsure

[karmic echo]

what timezone you in? qe can play later if we aren't too far apart.

EST, 8:19 right now

[edgy halo]

same lol

[karmic echo]

sick

[willow folio]

i bought dark waters

[karmic echo]

I should be open any time past 2:40

[azure sleet]

Agreed they're MUCH better
Home Invasion was meh for me, Lawmaker was definitely the stand-out map

But on something like oil rig I remember looking up at the building like "holy shit" first time I loaded the map

Great map, hope they keep putting intractable stuff into the future maps (Stuff like the horn, how you can radio back to COAST, turn off the mining drill, etc)

Just
Please make it so if you shoot the pool table balls they'll go in the holes 🙏 I need it..NOW!!!

[little burrow]

i had an issue when downloading update

bro my game is dead

my pc crashed during download and now the game is corrupted

bro I'm tired of this bro what should I even do like bro I bought a 1.5K pc and it's still slow as hell

[winter cloud]

so on the yacht i and my mate dont have sound

[night hawk]

Did you try restarting the map? Like going back to HQ and back?

[winter cloud]

like shouting and steps arent there

well try it again now

i can shout aagaib

[hexed nest]

guys check your phones

[empty dove]

jeez the AI are so useless for sleeper agent

[fervent ingot]

game crashing constantly since DLC?

[main urchin]

how do i send bug report in steam?

[light niche]

Now all I need is an MP5SD6 for this game and it would be perfect in my opinion.

[empty dove]

uh there is

[ember axle]

Patch soon?

[pastel knoll]

Is there anyone having trouble with Phoenix Flight Suit is locked while you already have Dark Water DLC or know how to solve this problem?

[solid cape]

Complete Rust Belt with B grade

[pastel knoll]

oh

[solid cape]

For some reason this suit have requirements in files

[somber prism]

Anyone else suffered a glitch where your game crashed and when you booted it up all your progress has been reset? Like your S ranks, unlocked gear are all reset?

[pastel knoll]

thanks a lot!

[empty dove]

what tf is the use for the secondary aim mode on the XE sight??

[gentle canyon]

Playing Dark Waters right now! Damn immersion!

However, after one campaign and two DLCs, I miss something: I think the mental health mechanic works cool. But! What about some Metal Gear Solid V alike system in which we must earn currency during good raids, pay our unit, earn better gear and pay the bad press due to failed raids?

[fervent ingot]

iron sights, co witness

[empty dove]

ye other than that tho not much

[finite fern]

PLEASE someone give me tips on how to get better FPS 😔

[rigid bone]

What're your specs?

[vale shell]

devs should give us sniper team next since we got the heli cam its gonna b so peak 🙏

[rigid bone]

Y'all likely aren't gonna get it

[vale shell]

but the heli is prolly a new mechanic test tho

[rigid bone]

I think you can trust me fren. :>

[molten anvil]

Hii can someone help, I cant see the names of my teamates on the head cam

[solid cape]

Press F3 few times

[molten anvil]

oh thx

[brazen yarrow]

how can i fix when i launch my game it makes crash report and crashes

[rigid bone]

Remove any mods you had

[brazen yarrow]

yes but i want to play with mods but it crashes

[rigid bone]

We just had an update two days ago, the modders need time to update their mods

[brazen yarrow]

so no mod is working?

[opaque mason]

I love the new entry cutscenes bro

[rigid bone]

Most mods aren't working currently, yes

[frosty tendon]

I figured that out the hard way

[opaque mason]

Ah man I love the new DLC keep dropping bangers void and I’ll buy em all

[frosty tendon]

I might get another SCP mod though as this one i got is sorta boring

[frosty tendon]

Ye, these new DLCs are awesome. They also i feel give a more eerie aspect atleast in the trailers for both

[night oxide]

is kammy still here?

All not, no ready 😔

[opaque mason]

Lmao but this game is fucking goated man

[pliant briar]

they don't know...

[wise scroll]

Can we send the Europeans who come to the US chatrooms to hell?

We don't invade their voice chats why let them invade us!

[pliant briar]

can't they check what is their colony doing?

[wise scroll]

Na these where Middle Eastern

[pliant briar]

[wise scroll]

Keep the sand in the Box!

[waxen latch]

What did you mean by that

https://tenor.com/view/druski-what-do-you-mean-by-that-huang4evr-gif-23513899

[pliant briar]

why aren't you fixing bugs?...

[sick flume]

My brother in christ you try game development then if it's so easy

[pliant briar]

what?

are you replying to a ghost?

[waxen latch]

Dont fall for the bait

[potent shell]

Me who has alot of mods and all non updated:

[pliant briar]

it's not a bait :-(

[runic aspen]

Be the spook, not the spooked

Do we know ETA of FSR 3.1?

[glass mulch]

because..... Community Manager

[pliant briar]

fix bugs with the community then

[rigid bone]

I mean

I am working on that

Currently talking community reports and testing them for reproducibility. So far, I've found a lot of bug are mod related

[sick flume]

No mods supremacy

[pliant briar]

wouldn't a popup when launching the game with mods after an update for the first time (or preferably until after hiding it) help? that assumes the game launches at all, but i hope people can figure out that 1 + 1 = 2 and serialization errors are mod related 99% of the time

[night oxide]

On triad shouldnt all the statues have developed verdigris?

[runic aspen]

Gentlemen...

I just had a sandwich!1!!!

[night oxide]

Place built in 1970s. Its almost 2030, its by the coast, all statues are bronze. Shouldnt they be green like the statue of liberty?

[pliant briar]

what if they were waxed?

[night oxide]

Ur telling me the super secret organization is waxing them?

[rigid bone]

There are several modern-ish alloys of bronze that almost completely eliminate that sort of buildup, that and they look cooler this way

[runic aspen]

That'd be the crazy woman map

[runic aspen]

Waitm statues are supposed to be bronze there? Thought they were waaay to dark for bronze🤔

I honestly thought they were mannequins

[pliant briar]

you never know what's up in the ron's universe

maybe there is a super duper secret organisation that only maintains bronze statues

[runic aspen]

Knowing RoN universe that secret inner circle wing can even have a rational explanation for doing that

[night oxide]

Lmao

[runic aspen]

Sir, respectfully, I'm yoinking your silly cat (bleh :p) pfp

[night oxide]

I made the edit myself

[runic aspen]

Pure art man

[night oxide]

Easter egg transparent chill guy to the right

[runic aspen]

Modern day computer gaming

[willow folio]

i hate the postal service

[autumn halo]

@brazen pilot sorry for the ping but what non lethal weapons or gesrs you use to get S rank in Yacht?

[brazen pilot]

taser only

[opaque mason]

OH FOR FUCKS SAKE THE PREACHER IS BACK

[solid cape]

Just block him

[autumn halo]

Oh, did you like triggered the suspects to execute the civs and it become an active shooting scenario

[opaque mason]

How…

[solid cape]

Escape > Lobby Manager > Block

[brazen pilot]

i arrested the guy who gives the order before he did

[opaque mason]

The one in the Islamic attire right?

[brazen pilot]

yea

[autumn halo]

Oh, so when he havent detained him he will order his men to execute?

[opaque mason]

I saved everyone in there even while shooting the guards

[autumn halo]

Instead of arresting him, should have incapicated him

[brazen pilot]

he wont order them to execute if he's arrested in time

[jolly trench]

Shlorpj it 😈💦

[opaque mason]

Literally every one of his guards but his personal ones got shot down before he could give an order silencers work wonders

[autumn halo]

With suppresed weapons or weapons without silencers?

[opaque mason]

Suppressed I do quick clean work that way

[autumn halo]

Oh ok

Also did the AI's improved a bit or nah?

[opaque mason]

Oh yeah even their surrendering and fake outs are so much better

[autumn halo]

Like based on y'all opinion

[opaque mason]

I love the new animations and the bleed out effect some suspects can take

[autumn halo]

Including the surrender when they slowly put their guns down?

[opaque mason]

Yep works wonderfully so I keep my gun trained on them

[autumn halo]

Yea but it's also quite annoying for the SWAT AI to repeatedly tell them to surrender even tho they're slowly putting their guns down

[opaque mason]

It happens but I’m fine with that since the suspect A.I. doesn’t make them more fearless at least

[jolly trench]

Ok so how is it that when a suspect is walking slowly towards me with a knife I can’t shoot them? I ask them to drop it, they don’t, I shoot. That simple

[autumn halo]

Hm

[exotic maple]

so polite 😇

[opaque mason]

Taser pepper spray non lethal ball shots and grenades

[jolly trench]

Fuck no

[opaque mason]

You gotta remember your guns aren’t your only tools to take down suspects

[exotic maple]

beanbag shotgun is the way to go

[jolly trench]

I try to be as accurate to real police as possible, minus the corruption. If i see a civ pull out their phone, I shoot

Also more relaxed roe, if someone is pointing a gun at me and they don’t drop it within two yells they die

[opaque mason]

I’ve been getting A’s all through the new DLC cause it’s a bit more weapons free than say home invasion and base game

[jolly trench]

I was playing dorms with my friend btw

[opaque mason]

I shoot their hands with hollow points

[jolly trench]

I only bring one type of ammo per mission

[opaque mason]

Or I use a taser and step aside them

[jolly trench]

Also why do we need hollow points? Like think about it. jhp is useless against armor, and ap is great for armor and still gets the job done on unarmored suspects

[gaunt holly]

Hp is useless

[opaque mason]

Because you can incapacitate an enemy without killing or bleeding them

I’ve had a lot more alive unarmored suspects because I used hollow points don’t need cop killers for skins running around

[solid cape]

JHP still can pen armor depend on caliber (up to level 3 with rifles) + more damage on limb shots

[gaunt holly]

Why wouldn't you just always run ap? So when you do run into an armored suspect you can make the bas guys go ouchie

[hardy canopy]

I mean

[gaunt holly]

Ap is also really good vs unarmored suspects

[hardy canopy]

I run jhp pretty much exclusively on .300 and 762 nato

And it's not like i ever have problems with armored suspects

[solid cape]

You need AP only on few maps where suspects use level 4 plates (Consider you run on .300/7.62x39/7.62x51)

[autumn halo]

How about the SWAT AIs?

[vale glacier]

bruh can u please set the slowmode back to 5 seconds, it used to be 5 but some mod increased it

[rigid bone]

We upped it because it did get poppin' in here, but I think it has calmed down enough to lower it back

[empty dove]

10 would be good just like on ron-discussion

[rigid bone]

!slowmode 452425840274309120 5

[silent eagle]

Set 5 minutes slowmode for #💬general-discussion (native slowmode)

[rigid bone]

OOP

!slowmode 452425840274309120 5s

[silent eagle]

Set 5 seconds slowmode for #💬general-discussion (native slowmode)

[vale glacier]

thank you lol

[autumn halo]

Ain't no way we waiting 5 mins to send a text lol

[gaunt holly]

I'd just rather run ap all the time instead of having to worry about switching ammo types

[night oxide]

Ammo?

Yall use bullets?

Weak

[brazen pilot]

no i use taser

[runic aspen]

I use my words, bc I'm civilized.

[gaunt holly]

Boolits good

[unborn anchor]

there's no reason to ever run anything exept AP

the enemies die just fine with it and then you never need to switch, if someone needs to worry about that they are just bad

[solid cape]

Having triple higher stagger chance and incap in 2 shot via limbs hits is a big factor actually

[unborn anchor]

would've made a difference before the new AI

[unborn anchor]

why are you aiming for limbs tho?

or are you just blindly spraying?

[solid cape]

Because you can hit limbs sometimes

they can cover torso

[runic aspen]

Headshots all day.

[gaunt holly]

You're already creating a disadvantage by aiming for limbs

[unborn anchor]

I mean exactly, if you want to incap/kill them instead of arresting them, shot placement is key

[runic aspen]

occasional groin shot, just bc

[unborn anchor]

but now with the new AI getting shot decreases morale instead of adding it

so now you can shoot people once with AP and then have them give up

[hardy canopy]

Which, they seem to go down just fine with jhp .300

Or jhp 762 nato

[unborn anchor]

the ammo choise makes way too little difference in this game

they should really rebalance it

we should also have a reason to run ceramic plates, but we dont

[solid cape]

It's never increases their morale in the first place

[unborn anchor]

it did for a very very long time

[solid cape]

You confusing stress with morale

[unborn anchor]

you could see it with stat showing mods

like litterally

[runic aspen]

Sometimes I like to collect the victims all in one room, and throw multiple flash, stinger, and gas grenades in there with them. Try to dissuade them from ever thinking about turning to a life of crime.

[unborn anchor]

the average RON player has commited more murders in the game than the terrorists ingame

[runic aspen]

very true, lmao

[solid cape]

Well, there is no such mod and damaging suspect always been decreased their morale by 0.125 per shot

0.1 on lethal obsession

[unborn anchor]

yes, the mod isn't in nexus 😄

remeber mate that stuff exists outside of it

[solid cape]

I know, because i have tools that show these stats btw

[unborn anchor]

plenty of trainer show full stats

[solid cape]

and like i said, you more likely confusing morale with stress, which indeed increasing when you damaging suspect

[opaque mason]

Very responsive they know to move better and they’re super smart for dealing with suspects

[fickle jay]

@solid cape I heard you mentioned that you can kill on sleeper agent achievement?

[solid cape]

Yes, i killed all suspects and get it

[fickle jay]

You have just saved one man's sanity thankyou

[opaque mason]

Sleeper agent?

[lilac vale]

The hardest achievement to get right now in the game

Everyone who has grinded dark waters DLC only have that one left

[opaque mason]

Is this part of the theory about judge being one?

[autumn halo]

But when they use SMG, they should learn how to aim for headshot

[lilac vale]

Maybe idk I don’t follow the lore

[opaque mason]

I do intensely

There’s a lot of conspiracy in this

[frank plover]

why are civs never compliing in this update kinda dumb how thye will say no to 4 men armed with shotguns

[autumn halo]

Well he has a friend from the USIA during the 3 letter triad mission

[lilac vale]

Ai always gets broken some way every update

[autumn halo]

But now they kinda improved

[grim mango]

Whoever fixed it to where you now get the highest rank credit if someone else hosts a lobby, I could kiss ya

[lilac vale]

Yeah but still annoying af

[fickle jay]

Does it confirm on being done or mission completion?

[autumn halo]

How so?

[spice prism]

Are the new trophies hard??

[solid cape]

Right after you kill 15th suspect, no need to complete

[lilac vale]

They take forever to get on the ground and still aggressive af.

[fickle jay]

Thanyou this is invaluable

[lilac vale]

Sleeper agent is the only hard one

[autumn halo]

Oh right they drop their guns slowly

[worn solar]

We tried a bunch of times, no more than 15 seconds between kills, still didn't work on a 5 man

[spice prism]

Because to s rank or trophy

[worn solar]

We killed everyone in less than 2 minutes and still it wasn't enough

[lilac vale]

The achivement

[opaque mason]

That is true and there’s a thing about the USIA training soldiers with experimental drugs to make them into mindless soldiers

[spice prism]

Anyone got it yet for sleeper agent

[lilac vale]

Not for me no

[autumn halo]

I assume y'all unlocked the MLO achievement

[autumn halo]

Yea, so Judge is Gamma 1

[spice prism]

What is best to play with bots or teammates for the trophies

[autumn halo]

Depends?

[lilac vale]

Most can be done with bots but for best and fastest result teammates are better

[opaque mason]

It’d make sense…yeah…honestly the more federal missions we have to deal with the more I learn with the USIA’s involvement

Shady ass federals honestly

[autumn halo]

I assume FISA will be under fire since one of them is corrupt

[gloomy delta]

will multiplayer score go towards unlocking gear

[lilac vale]

ye

[opaque mason]

I assume as much honestly

[gloomy delta]

what gun should i use for relapse?

[autumn halo]

When you did the mission, which entrance did you use?

[autumn halo]

[autumn halo]

Always try to aim for a headshot, except the leader

[gloomy delta]

[autumn halo]

All suspects' vests are level 3?

[solid cape]

On relapse they can wear only this one

[gloomy delta]

[autumn halo]

How about the other missions like the Left Behind and Los Locos' vests?

Are they Level 4?

[solid cape]

You better check this spreadsheet, there all info about it https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1d89lpFDA9lo_v13iBlnhtuA6DvuUnKfPaeo0d4RBGJ4/edit?usp=sharing

FInding birds in rdr2 sucks

[autumn halo]

Is the guy's M45A1 golden or am I trippin?

[gaunt holly]

It's golden. Like the James Bond gun

[zealous crow]

does anyone know if using the lockpick while trying to get the Way out West achievement invalidates the run?

[solid cape]

Yes, you cant use it, but your swat ai can

[gloomy delta]

is anybody down to run relapce w me?

[wraith marlin]

does anyone know how the f I terminate the livestream on the rig map?

[small pagoda]

either in the drill room or the large lower room

[wraith marlin]

thank you, bro

[graceful plover]

I have a buddy that is saying he has kicked a door so many times he has broken his leg? Is this a thing? I sware I have kicked doors several times and never had that happen. The only time ive never been able to kick a door is when ive already been shoot in the leg.

[autumn halo]

Ok

[small pagoda]

only if you've been shot in the leg beforehand

[wide grove]

Question, is anyone else having issues with cosmetics? I bought Dark Waters but am unable to use the flight suit. It tells me I don't own Dark Waters despite owning it.

[graceful plover]

Try varifying your Steam files, When I got Dark Waters the DLC didn't install right away.

[wide grove]

Got it. If that doesn't work then I'll just cry Ig

[empty dove]

Finish rust belt in B I think as others said.

It's weird it has a requirement for it

[solid cape]

Yeah, it's has requirement in files, which for some reason was not deleted

[wide grove]

what?? That's a weird ass requirement but...I'll try that if it's not unlocked when I verify.

[solid cape]

Verifying won't do anything, so only rust belt and get at least B grade

[wide grove]

Well, still better safe than sorry

plus I already started the verifying so might as well let it run it's course

22 HOURS?! TO VERIFY FILES? holy shit maybe I won't verify them

[graceful plover]

it will take a min but trust me totally worth it! You gonna love Dark Waters esp if you have a team to play with. I have say they did a great job on it some AI bugs can be address but hand down great DLC.

[serene quartz]

is anyone else’s game crashing when loading into a mission?

[graceful plover]

That usually not accurate. It took me an hour and that was surpringly long on a fiber connection.

[graceful plover]

The game don't crash on me but if you stuck on a black loading screen just give it some time. takes a min.

[wide grove]

it wasn't going down at all nor was the progress bar moving so I'll just assume nothing is broken since it's been running fine 😅

[graceful plover]

like its 100% and black screen just give it a few.

[serene quartz]

I get stuck on the loading screen for 2 minutes then it crashes

[wide grove]

Oh

by crash do you mean crashing or just still sat on the loading screen?

[serene quartz]

it waits on the loading screen for 2 minutes going up by 11% every now and then and it just brings me back to the steam library

[wide grove]

Odd. Do you play on Dx12 or 11?

[serene quartz]

I tried both and the same thing happened

[wide grove]

Do you have any mods loaded?

[serene quartz]

yep

[wide grove]

how many?

[serene quartz]

5 or 6

[wide grove]

what mods are they?

[serene quartz]

just weapons

[solid cape]

You better delete them in case they broken after update #❓modding-faq message

[wide grove]

Perhaps that may be the issue?

I second Aspid's point

[solid cape]

or try safemode and see if game start

[serene quartz]

alright

[hardy canopy]

It's not about the internet speed when you verify files. It's upon your cpu and storage drive

[graceful plover]

Well dangit! All thats fast too! haha!

[magic pecan]

Is your ready or not on a ssd or hard drive?

[graceful plover]

I blame the doughnuts that Ready or Not install in the office. That were moving slow!! SSD m.2 2TB Samsung

[hardy canopy]

[wide grove]

before any of y'all try to help me it's just my laptop hating me

[hardy canopy]

It takes 5 minutes for me to verify my game files

Probably less even

[magic pecan]

Yeah idk then, maybe you had corrupt files it needed to replace

[graceful plover]

It probably too me more like 15mins but seemed like an hour when I had been waiting for the DLC for so long.

[hardy canopy]

[magic pecan]

Flight suit still is unavailable

[hardy canopy]

L

[magic pecan]

Flight suits broken, maps before deployment are broken

Those are the two glitches I noticed

[wet timber]

is it just me or are smgs super weak even with AP rounds?

im having to mag dump one armoured guy just kill him

[magic pecan]

Yeah smgs I don’t like

You end up using all the ammo before you finish the match too

[wet timber]

like the new suppressed mp5 is super cool but using it is such a nightmare

[magic pecan]

It’s really bad, me and my friend used it and against armor it didn’t do anything

[wet timber]

guess headshots are the way with smgs lmao

[velvet finch]

The new M14 is an absolute machine tho

[solid cape]

What map and what caliber you using?

[fallen sail]

SMGs usually dont penetrate plates

They're still decent

[hardy canopy]

Yes

[magic pecan]

I’ve never used it but on three letters triad you need it, the maps too big

[velvet finch]

Only thing I dont like in the new update is one of the surrender animations includes a moment where the suspect will point the gun right at you as he is attempting to put it down. I've shot a few of them in that animation now and it always is an unauthorized force

[fallen sail]

I do feel like its an animation that requires some meta knowledge, but if you let it get you more than once or twice that's on you at that point

[velvet finch]

Yeah for sure, it just subtracts from the general realism I love about this game lol

[fallen sail]

general realism isn't something i would praise this game for

[velvet finch]

Overall, maybe not. But, there are specific moments that have great realism on an engagement by engagement basis. Of course a real SWAT team wouldn't usually be involved in shooting that many people during an operation.

[fallen sail]

I definetly feel like the new suspect changes and the hesitation helps the game A TON in overall gameplay

[graceful plover]

I feel the environment and maps looks great, I think the game play and tools we have are awesome.

[fallen sail]

cant wait to have it all in the old map

[minor spade]

Was the update ever supposed to have the option for having two weapon attachments i.e. Flashlight, Laser. Or am I tripping balls and that's just for the helmet

[wet timber]

they said they'll implement this in later updates

[velvet finch]

Yeah, 10000%

[graceful plover]

Void said in one of the last community notes on Steam they wanted to Implement that but it was not working like they wanted so it should be expected in a future DLC coming in 2025 possibly free for everyone.

[minor spade]

Ahh okay I defintly remember hearing them say something about it.

There's a mod that does it so it's not a big deal

[velvet finch]

The hesitation and new animations appear to be working in the old maps, I tried it on the gas station and it all seemed present.

[graceful plover]

When you guys say old maps your talking about the base game?

[minor spade]

Yeah they are. It's kinda stupid as they're literally pointing it at you with the trigger hand still on the grip

[minor spade]

Yes

I've seen it pretty much every game

[velvet finch]

Yeah, we were just talking about that lol. It has led me to lose points a few times.

[fallen sail]

They do, however stuff like weapon caches, weapons on the level, unarmed suspects or holstered suspects i dont think are i nthe base game

[minor spade]

I think it breaks AI surrendering too because like 5 people yelling at them and they just freeze up

[velvet finch]

I had a holstered suspect in the gas station too

[fallen sail]

haven't had it happen yet, guess i got unlucky

[graceful plover]

yah well I can say this Im almost fisnished with Ironman mode and I beat the Relapse and the Vine mission and in both mission the AI hesitated in areas. Or slowly hand up and slowly going to the ground with the gun pointed.

Also happend at the Car Dealership.

and I have found areas where my AI wont Open and Clear.

[minor spade]

Yeah you have to have them fall in then you tell them to do the order

[graceful plover]

My buddy and I were playing the new oil rig and we had a civ that would not surrender at all. So what we may have discovered is this is happening if you cancel the arrest.

[minor spade]

Or if you put a door wedge on and have them remove it they don't like Open and Clear command.

[graceful plover]

That would be the issue than because I did have a wedge I had removed.

[minor spade]

Only way I've had that fixed is if I open the door yourself or tell them to breach it

[graceful plover]

The door though that wedge they wouldn't even stack it

I bascially clear the room and had them fall in and that worked but after after the fact.

Anyone Void is awesome im sure we can expect some patches in the near future. Its a great DLC reguardless.

[serene quartz]

it should not take 18 minutes to load into the police station

please I just need to load in

[gaunt holly]

Perhaps your computer may be struggling

[serene quartz]

well

now than you mentioned it, you can hear it from around 5 meters around

[gaunt holly]

☠️

[serene quartz]

but it always does that

even on the home screen

yeah I don’t think it’s been that loud before

oh the game crashed

on safe mode

[graceful plover]

It never take me or my teammates to load in that long. Usually when I start the game up it takes a bit longer assuming its installing shaders like most games do now day.

[serene quartz]

well it could be my specs

[main urchin]

Is it just me, or I can't change my A.Is loadout

or is there a new "Save loadout" button i missed.

[graceful plover]

It should work could be a bit buggy looking at different stuff.

[gaunt holly]

Check the heat too

[main urchin]

my own loadout is fine but the A.I. just kept reverting to previous one. I was trynna go non-lethal run

[whole rivet]

are you guys ready

or not

[main urchin]

well the game needs to be ready and let me change my A.Is loadout first lol

[serene quartz]

yes’nt

[graceful plover]

if it bugging go click on one of your AI guys and go back

[main urchin]

i did, it just reverted to my previous one, it even took off their gas mask

idk if cs gas affects AI in this game or not so i just give it to prevent them from sudden death.

[serene quartz]

corrupted data. I HATE MY LIFE, PLEASE I WANT TO BUY THE DLCS PLEASE PLEASE I BEG OF YOU

[graceful plover]

It works for sure. I have rocked every mission with an S class and we normally go Gas/Flash and VKS which now the VPL or something like that.

[empty dove]

He means his swat AI, which no they aren't affected

[sterile forum]

Anyone know if you need exactly a B to unlock items that say you need a B grade in a certain mission or will a higher grade still unlock it?

[lilac vale]

It means that grade or higher

[graceful plover]

They SWAT AI is forsure affected if they dont have gas mask on? I had a AI guy choak up on a mission that I forgot to equip a gas mask on.

[little hawk]

S everything unlocks everything

[lilac vale]

So if you S rank all maps you will get all cosmetics for C etc tec

[little hawk]

Except watch (sorta)

[graceful plover]

Whats the point of the watch if you can't even look at it.

[main urchin]

looks nice, from outside perspective

[little hawk]

Flex on low paid officers

[graceful plover]

I picked the watch I had for the compuss so I can turn off the UI

[empty dove]

Never happened to me, unless it's a new thing with this update

[gaunt holly]

Give up before your computer actually dies. That's what happened to me and now I can't play anything lol

[serene quartz]

I am not giving up, I AM PLAYING THIS DLC

[gaunt holly]

At what risk? Losing your computer? 😭

[serene quartz]

yes

[graceful plover]

This happened to me before the update. My officers cough but I don't if it hurt him or not but I remember cancelling the round to to equip the mask.

[graceful plover]

When you guys buy games do you ever look at the system requirements?

[gaunt holly]

Nope

[empty dove]

I'm pretty certain it did not effect swat AI before, are you using mods?

[graceful plover]

I was playing with one of you guys in this server a few weeks ago that didn't even have graphics card drivers installed.

[gaunt holly]

Altho I'm certain the change to UE5 was the end of me

[serene quartz]

yes, if I’m spending money then I wanna play the game,

core i5 for ron

[serene quartz]

I have an i3

why did that reply, I did not press reply to that message.

[graceful plover]

minimum requirements Intel Core i5-4430 / AMD FX-6300

Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960 2GB / AMD Radeon R7 370 2GB

[gilded tangle]

Is it just me or does the game feel a lot slower during movement for example: arresting, switching weapons etc. Or is that intentional?

[serene quartz]

well everything else is good so one wrong thing can’t break the game right?

[graceful plover]

Not intentional, there is some AI bugs.

[gilded tangle]

ah I see, thanks for the response

[graceful plover]

You just said you had an I3 though

[serene quartz]

ye

[graceful plover]

If you have an I3 you need a better CPU

Do you know what kinda of graphics card you have?

[serene quartz]

gtx 1650

[empty dove]

I mean depends on gen and speeds, some i3 can be better than i5 and so on

[graceful plover]

That gpu is fine.

[lilac vale]

A 14th gen I3 will outperform a I5 10th gen for example

[graceful plover]

Im going off minimum requirements that is listed on Steam.

[empty dove]

Yea but as ^^ said

[serene quartz]

well I have a i3-10105F according to task manager

[graceful plover]

I think he said he was on a laptop too some assuming there is no overclocking and I am going to even encurage anyone to start going that route.

I am not going to encourage ^^

[serene quartz]

I just spent more than 15 minutes verifying game flies just to get the same corrupted file error

would deleting mod data in the crash reporter delete my save flies or just the mods?

[graceful plover]

Just delete your mods first

you can always reinstall those

[serene quartz]

so do delete mod data

[graceful plover]

That is a newer than my I3

[rigid bone]

No, delete the mods in your .pak folder

[serene quartz]

ok

so paks - mod.io - 3791 - mods?

then just delete the flies inside
