Gas still doesn’t work. Has a nearly zero-second fuse, I haven’t seen it have any effect on people where it lands, but if I’m not wearing a gas mask, it will effect me where I’m standing at the time of the throw, not where it lands after.

[Scoring]
Give 10 points for incapacited suspect
I noticed that we get 5 points whether we kill or incapacitate a suspect so in terms of score there is no point in trying to keep a suspect alive. We should get more points like 10 if a suspect is only incapacitated and not dead.

[vivid scarab]

Fix the evidence disappearing and "F to interact" deciding to break mid run. It sucks that the hardest part about getting S ranks is not the mission itself, but the lottery of "will my interactions disappear? Will suspect evidence disappear?"
I'm tired of having perfect runs but evidence clipping through objects or disappearing or being unable to hit "F" to interact with doors, evidence, or suspects. Like come on.

Do you know if void is planning to integrate a server in South America?

There is a large concentration of people from both Brazil and other Latin American countries who want to play together, the problem is the language barrier that we find in North American servers apart from the players who literally run all over the map and do not play slowly.

Absurd how you want people to not pirate your game when you are so eager to steal other's art through generative ai. I'm sure you know it takes from other artists and blends it all together. Do better.

Also tried to do an S rank run and encountered a bug on Greased Palms where the soft objective would not count in the end, even though I called it in to TOC.

Hey, i think that Void should add more often something from the Suggestions that exist since Early Acces. I know this Sounds like i want to Push my Suggestions, but since 2022 Many Peolple including myself want a REALISTIC Glock 17 or Glock 19. Because i have never seen the G19, that is in the Game, in Real Life.
Sometimes i think that VOID wont even look at the Suggestions and just making their own thing.
How many People Requestet a Pepper Ball Pistol with 7 Shots? Just compare this to the People who want a Realistic Glock 17. Eventhough there are only two Suggestions in #1050529506022137876 but many People want this. And what do we get? A Pepperball Pistol. I have never seen any Suggestions for new Less-Lethal Weapons

[sinful aspen]

Can't stand the noise of door knob anymore.
The door knob sounds like a tripwire grenade click and always gave me a little jump every time I heard it. Please just change it to something more of door knob sound 'skrrrubb...creak' instead of 'click'

[shrewd shard]

I just did the restaurant mission from DLC 3. There are literally 5 rooms on this map and my team failed to do what I asked them to do 90% of the time. This AI and their broken path finding are really getting worse and worse. It's not even fun to play alone anymore because all the missions I failed were because my team was inactive. It's really starting to piss me off.

[primal hollow]

Welcome to the club hahahaha

[astral igloo]

The servers are so unbelievably dog water. Like almost every time I join a server my latency is at LEAST 161.

Fox the console servers for the love of god. They’re like genuinely unbearable to play on when you’re not hosting.

[chilly imp]

Fix the AI flash throwing behavior. Half the time if the room has a small entrance area and then the actual room in either direction no matter how you stack your team they just throw the flash into the wall like idiots and just flash themselves. Then when you throw it for them it’s friendly fire when it’s nowhere near them

[jovial shore]

Greased Palms.. my god what an awful way to make a game, the reaction time of Ai is insane..

[jovial shore]

Better if they fix the ai reaction time on Greased Palms

[chilly imp]

Elephant should be an easy mission, it already took more time than valley of the dolls and i still haven’t beat it. Why do the bombs just randomly go off at mostly random times way under 18 minutes??? Why do the shooters randomly kill hostages across the school where I have no line of sight from them? Why is it so RNG where I have 0 control of doing anything?

[jovial shore]

And getting sniped from a random direction or from half across the map close to the end.. so bs

[chilly imp]

Idk man just keep trying and you’ll get it

[jovial shore]

Ive been trying for so long. The last enemy goes in to override and becomes crazy fast or kills you from far away. Or he just runs up on you super fast.. this is just f annoying

You had 17 suspects. Sometimes its 21 wtf. When i searched it up it said it should be 16

[bold parrot]

Hey yall. Just got this on Series X and while I love the game for being a intense tactical shooter, this shit looks like doodoo. Straight buns. The textures are garbage. The AI is autistic. Before I bought it, I just naturally assumed the neckbeards on reddit were just being pompous, drama queens but I low key see where their coming from now. This game is currently worth the same amount of the file size. I hope big changes are coming because it low key feels like 40GBs short of what it should be. Other than that I feel yall nailed the concept and vibe but the AI, graphic fidelity, and some mechanics are criminal.

[celest adder]

The devs should add it so enemies will hide more in places like behind doors and in stalls or other little areas

[steep radish]

This game is almost unplayable. It is so frustrating because I have looked forward to the console release for so long. The AI teammates are straight off the short bus, and when they aren't ignoring commands, they are walking right past suspects and getting shot in the back. The visual quality is dog crap, bullet casings float in the air, suspects get stuck in crawl spaces, and I've had suspects completely tank beanbags to the groin. I've had countless S-rank runs ruined by these issues and it is so demoralizing. This game is amazing for what it is and I cant wait until it is enjoyable to play.

[frank osprey]

Add shorts and a Glock 17 into the game please

Who in their right mind is gonna wear shorts to a special forces operation

[frank osprey]

Well we are swat not special forces and I did

[dry rose]

To the Ready or Not Dev Team,

I'm writing to express extreme frustration after a game crash completely deleted my save file—with no backup, no recovery, and no cloud support. I've spent hours grinding through missions, unlocking content, and building progress, only for it to vanish instantly because your game has zero protection against corrupted saves.

This is unacceptable in 2025. Cloud saving is standard—even indie games have it. Yet Ready or Not, a tactical game with deep progression and a committed player base, offers no safeguard whatsoever. No cloud sync. No auto-backup. No file recovery. Nothing.

Losing that kind of progress due to something out of my control is not just frustrating—it’s infuriating. Players shouldn't have to back up save files manually like it's 2005. I expected better from a game of this scope and price.

I want to know:

Why there's no cloud saving or auto-backup system?

If you're doing anything to prevent this from happening again?

Whether save protection will be implemented in the near future?

I loved the game, but right now I don’t trust it enough to start over—because I can’t be sure this won’t happen again. It’s not just data—it’s my time and commitment. And right now, Ready or Not feels like it doesn’t value either.

Fix this.

—A seriously pissed-off player

[steady pebble]

I would like to suggest that, in the discord, we have lobbies for modded play. Many times the last few days people have wanted to join lobbies but can't because I run mods. Playstation players can't even JOIN a modded game much less use mods.

This has lead to a lot of complaints and join/leaves as people come in wanting to play but don't want to deal with mods. I know we aren't 2 million players but a few channels in the discord for modded play would be nice. Thanks.

[tepid saffron]

I simple yet effective addition i believe would help the game a lot is a shoulder tap system. A way to let your teammates know in a nonverbal way, its go time, or im set. It would make multiplayer a lot better and give a more realistic feel to the game as well.

As well as giving console players the ability to rebind their controls, and adding a free-look for console would also be really nice

[void belfry]

The server should have separate channels for Xbox lfg, and PS lfg

[nimble iris]

My average grade is constantly dropping in stats despite getting A, A+ and S very frequent and below A very rare. I feel it should be somewhere in the B region but instead it dropped to D by now. I felt betrayed with it showing C already but D? That's really insulting.

I'm sure it's epics fault. They proved themselves more than once incapable of just everything they do.

[primal hollow]

Dude the game is even more broken than i thought 🤣

[primal hollow]

Epics fault? At the end yea bc epic owns unreal engine lol
But the games state is definitely not epics fault xD

[low socket]

Maybe it is fun to have the ability to make custom missions like in Police stories.
In that game you can, for example, pick how many civs there are, and how many and which suspects are there.
If this was implemented in RON, you can give the players more freedom of what they want to do in the game.

[regal maple]

Not sure where to post this but I will say it and hopefully the devs see the missed opportunity. I was about to buy the game yesterday with some friends until they brought up the restricted content on PC with censorship and graphic degrading and I will not be purchasing the game unless these issues are addressed. And hopefully thats soon because my interest will disappear at a rapid pace 🙂 thats my feedback. dont cater to consoles

[hallow ledge]

Same it was on my wishlist

I saw a comparison video and yeah...

[final lion]

When searching for public games, don't put us into games that don't have a map selected. 4 out of 5 games the host is just inactive or not interested in playing the game :) this isnt the biggest deal but would increase QOL by a ton

[steep radish]

I was just securing the last civilian to S rank Sins of the Father, and the game crashed... You can't make this shit up man. I want to enjoy this game so bad, but every time I load it up, there are just more and more reasons to stop playing. This marks the third mission, some stupid glitch, bug, or crash has messed up my S rank run. Valley of the Dolls, Carriers of the Vine, and now Sins of the Father. This is getting ridiculous (PS5)

[chilly imp]

Yeah that’s why I just uninstalled. It sometimes feels like everything in this game is made to just enrage you. Suspects have unholy aim and reaction time, if you want to get S ranks you need to play like mall security. Amount of bugs and tons of overlooked things that make the experience more enraging than enjoyable. Sometimes bullets phase right through enemies. Sometimes enemie’s bullets phase through concrete walls and hit you. again it’s like it’s designed to make you mad

[wraith marsh]

It feels like the hard diffculty is just Normal diffculty minus the AI Fairness update.
making the AI unfair is not the same as making the game harder.

[chilly imp]

It just makes the suspects superhuman and your own team stupider

[steep radish]

That is another problem. The AI teammates are special ed. When it matters most, they completely ignore commands, don't properly search and secure rooms, and just put themselves in the most exposed positions possible

[opal bobcat]

This right here is a problem of mine I tell them to move and clear and they say yeah and don’t go anywhere and when I do search and secure they move to the other side of the map

[young zealot]

wow after game crash i lost 70 hour progres👍 lost evry thing my loadout, cosmetics and saves and all my watches and s tier maps and most annoying thing my diamond watch gg

[iron mantle]

Replay mode need a headcam prospettive and first person cam, will be more fun recording some clips

Hope they add this for console player too

[primal hollow]

They had it once but removed it

[chilly imp]

You guys should change the ROE system so that civilians who suddenly start reaching into their pocket like a crackhead to pull out a phone to not count as unauthorized use of force. This game is a swat simulator and IRL deadly force is justified under the Fourth Amendment when an officer reasonably believes there is an imminent threat. They’re literally trained to respond to threatening movements, not determine if the target actually has a weapon because if you wait to confirm if it’s a gun or not then you’ll get shot. I get how it’s to like make people have trigger discipline, but only an idiot would suddenly reach into their pocket and pull something out with an armed team of 5 screaming for compliance and holding them at gunpoint. Because of that it would make lethal force justified in that scenario and so it shouldn’t deduct points from the mission

[hearty beacon]

Hi sir iam ur no1 gamer

I wanted something actually big. Can u add ready or not to mobile devices pls

[pure ibex]

I can't host a game in Western / Eastern EU, crossplay on / off without crashing to dashboard in Series X either in pre-game lobby or after we start the mission.

NAT type open

[drowsy fossil]

An officer has been sued irl and jailed because he was pointing a gun at a civ and they reached into their pocket to pull out a phone and the cop shot them. It was like determined the cop reacted to quickly or something. I’ll have to find the case if you want it but people are stupid in high pressure situations your brain malfunctions that’s why police and military train the same thing over and over and over

[remote shell]

These ai teammates are SO oblivious to common sense instruction/ reaction... they will just watch me get shot while all 4 of them just stand there. I try to set them up for success by making them use flashes/stingers and obviously have numbers 4vs1 or 2 most of the time while I'm taking whole rooms. There needs to be an actual constant awareness of threats and reaction. They love dying while they walk up to stack a door, they will just calmly walk directly into fire instead of engaging.

[chilly imp]

Nobody’s adding a high quality swat simulator on your phone. It got downgraded enough on console why would they add it onto your phone

[chilly imp]

That’s true but if an officer is under enough belief that whoever he suspects is gonna have a gun then he can shoot him, it doesn’t matter if he actually ends up having a gun or not. Like in the 2018 Stephon Clark incident officers chased him and cornered him in his grandmother’s backyard before he suddenly reached to pull out a phone, but the officers ended up discharging 20 rounds, and none were found guilty. When you’re in some crack noise like twisted nerve And it’s dark and cloudy and there’s suspects everywhere and you suddenly see someone across the hallway and they reach for something it’s almost impossible to tell if it’s suspect or civ and if they’re pulling out a tec 9 or a Samsung galaxy

[chilly imp]

I’ve had that happen to so many times, whenever you tell them to cuff someone or to jam a door and a suspect materializes out of nowhere they’ll just continue doing whatever they’re doing while being gunned down. Same thing if you’re getting shot at. You could tell them to fall in and you get shot and they just stay a safe distance of 5 feet away from you and not do anything

[remote shell]

Exactly 🤦

[agile osprey]

Hope Devs see this (don't really want to ping them). Right now high difficulty is total, unfair piece of terrible balance. Suspects run very very fast and gun (shoot) with aim bot and through any pixel they can see you. Moreover SWAT AI is awful- it regressed and became so stupid and illogical, I actually didn't saw it like this ever. Teammates sometimes don't do commands until you reset it, they can breach inside the room, don't do a thing to surrendered suspects, and after completing task just stand there without doing anything. Dear developers, please, fix it as fast as you can, for now game is unpleasant at all(

[tacit lodge]

They need to add flip-flops for S-tiering the homemade full-auto switch map

[chilly imp]

Sometimes in my experience they breach a door and start screaming for someone to put their hands up and then say “nothing here” and just stand there

[ripe osprey]

screw this broken game, had enough of playing this piece of junk, waste of money...

[severe dock]

Fix it

[safe hamlet]

Instead of all the AI buffs in hard mode, why not just increase the overall misfortune in this diff. Not increased resists and aim/reaction time. You could double the enemy count. Make it so the roam the map more aggressively and if they find a zip tied teammate they cut them loose and give them a sidearm. Increase the cost of doctrine violations. Friendly fire from even AI as punishment for standing in stupid places in a gun fight (crossfire).

[nimble iris]

@primal hollow I believe the stats cloud is ran by epic. Could be wrong but I feel like it showed any stats only after I connected the game to my epic account.

[barren turtle]

Does anyone else think the Taser has too much recoil? Like Tasers shouldn't have recoil right?

[spice ice]

Tasers launch their probes using CO2 so there will still be recoil.

Just… get good.

[barren turtle]

I mean... there's too much lateral movement. Like you said, there should still some recoil, but not to this extent. The officer is full on yanking on the trigger for this recoil to happen

[misty arrow]

No point in showing me my mission rank when I die just boot me straight to the officers tab and it would also be nice to have a restart button there too

[distant whale]

yall need to fix this connection bullshit

[tame viper]

Add AIMPRO for Assault Rifles

[bold ruin]

Swap/take gear from dead officers

[junior quarry]

have you ever shot a taser

[frigid tartan]

hard mode is just funny, look closely but you can see the man who 1 tapped my teammate

[barren turtle]

I have not. But seeing bodycam videos of officers shooting their taser, there doesn’t seem to be much lateral recoil.

[hazy sentinel]

i really hope they add the ability to change the starting location on the map in the restart menu. not a huge issue or anything but it would be a nice quality of life addition to save time.

[junior quarry]

+1

[swift linden]

I love the game and all, I really do but like how with each update something messes up? Because these used to have textures not just fully black and then I crash no matter what when I play and same with a friend of mine, can’t even play the game some days because it crashes then the next day it works for like an hour.

[ripe osprey]

tasers have recoil, 😂 you just need to get good

[barren turtle]

But watching bodycam videos, those tasers barely have any recoil if at all.

[ripe osprey]

I know 😂

[dull scroll]

hi, yeah i find this so useless and very low effort. they've could just paint some black bars or pixel over the eyes, chest and bottom so it would'nt ruin the atmosphere. and i'm sure it could release on console that way without issues. btw: even the text on the wall is changed¿ lol

[surreal prism]

Yep but we are not sony or microsoft we can't know haha

[dull scroll]

Hello,dear dev's, if you would make it look like this on console, there should be no issues releasing it, too. the puppet dolls doesn't make any sense at all and ruined the game, leveldesign and storytelling.

[wide iron]

That looks awful

[barren turtle]

So how can I "get good" if the problem is that the recoil is unnecessarily buffed in game vs. irl? Also how would I get good if it's an animation thing and not a recoil control thing? Recoil control is easy, but the animation makes it seem like the swat officer has the weakest wrist when they pull out the taser.

[dull scroll]

better than puppet dolls, duh :))

[wide iron]

It doesn't, the problem is also the implication of CSAM. That wouldn't be allowed on consoles.

[dull scroll]

not allowed¿ so waht about cyberpunk , gta5 , outlast whistleblower , dead island2 , manhunt etc.. i'm telling you there is something realy gone wrong with the rating on console.

[wide iron]

Mostly all censored in some way in various regions, and if they're not it's because of differences in details.

For example outlast Trials is digital only, manhunt is also ancient and only consists of extreme violence to LIVING people, so much in fact it caused ratings boards to be harsher on games or for some regions to MAKE ratings boards.

[dense parcel]

I would love for the added ability to tackle or have some sort of actually effective melee for suspects that are refusing to give up, mainly the last suspect when you are playing by yourself with no AI on hard mode. Sometimes they just refuse to give up and will eat a grenade, flash/stinger launcher, and then 8 consectutive stuns from the beanbag shotty point blank all while yelling for compliance. I get that its not necesarily unrealistic but it would be nice to have some counter to it because its kinda just a Fuck You Run Over kinda thing for Solo No AI nonlethal. I actually like the functionality of having the last suspect be high resistance and hunt you down, but I just need some counter to them going terminator mode and leaving me staring at them with no ammo in my launcher or beanbag after stunning them ten times in a row. Could even be something like holding B instead of pressing it does a powerful melee that can knock resisting and already stunned suspects down if they have eaten many beanbags already.

Also having the ability to yell for compliance while reloading, taking out, and putting away the flash launcher, the ability to quickly switch to your primary from your launcher instead of neatly folding it back up (Maybe for the cost of a slower animation later, or awkward movement) would be super welcome changes.

[dull scroll]

what does the digital
only thing have to do with it? 🙂 anyways these games are on console but forces the player go brutal mayhem as part of the games mechanic.
i thought a rating should always see the big picture and your simulation game focuses on none leathal negotiation combat situations to search and rescue, based on real life happenings.
the gore etc is all optional. in fact if you would imply a negative number at the after-report-rating-score for destroying evidence (including shoot of limbs from dead suspects) due to giving the forensic medicine dept a hard time (simualtion wise) .. that gore gameplay feature could stay untouched in the game on console aswell :)) .. sometimes developer needs to go creative on how to showcase and display things to get around some spongy rules because it's all about interpretation matter.
well we'll see waht the future holds for us 👍🏻✌🏻

[eternal verge]

add a multicam helmet

[analog field]

Can you please fix cs gas already..

[hard shoal]

I really dislike how AI uses ballistic shields in game.

It’s like the operators don’t care about their safety after entering a room and say “It’s clear”, put away their shield, then get killed instantly by someone in another room. (Same goes for opening/closing doors, wedging, etc.)

It is also very annoying to spam MMB+5+5 after clearing a room to make sure my shield AI don’t die

Would it be possible to add an option or something for the AI to toggle the ballistic shield to stay permanently deployed after clearing a room?

[ripe osprey]

it's sarcasm don't worry about it

[deft cipher]

I often wonder how the heck i got killed in RON. I think having a dead cam after getting killed would be nice, what do you think? 🙂

[idle pasture]

For the love of god remove the supporter edition items from console versions if you’re not going to release a supporter edition on console.

Console players are already got their lore ruined because you censored the 23 megabytes a second mission, the Twisted Nerve mission, and the Valley of the Dolls mission. So because of that I had no idea what was going on. All you had to do was censor the nudity and keep the rest of the game how it was.

[royal mulch]

dawg outlast 2 literally has a section where you have to hide from a extremely implied and told explicitly in lore child-m0lester who has an animation of jaggin himself off while he chases you. It is definitely not censored 😭

[wide iron]

A horror game is also judged differently than a game portraying 'real life', that's what I was referring to when I mentioned details in the original post.

[gleaming mortar]

The supporter edition items being visible is a glitch/bug I’m pretty sure.

[royal mulch]

you could technically call ready or not a horror game somewhat

[remote shell]

The weapons are inaccurate like they're not zeroed in. They do not hit the reticle. Any shot over like 50 feet means nothing.

I've directly hit a suspect with an m320 flash and stinger with no effect.

Being unable to interact with suspects happens so frequently that I don't even count on being and to finish missions reliably.

I cannot emphasize enough how incompetent the teammates are.

Teammates don't restrain suspects that are still armed even after I give the order 10 times. They will say a room is clear while a suspect is unrestrained. They constantly let suspects get back up and start shooting a second time.

The entire command system needs to be changed. A simple "weapons free" needs to be a main command because, as I mentioned already, these "teammates" watch me get shot on every single mission without engaging.

The "teammates" will wonder off to completely useless areas at random times.

There needs to be a command that let's them use their deployables when necessary. It is so stupid for you to make this game where we have to be in complete control of 5 people during shootouts. On top of that, having them quickly deploy a flash when things are hitting the fan isn't even an option. The quickest thing I can do it have them "open, clear, and flash" which makes them completely mindless meat shields that usually walk directly until oncoming fire.

The friendly fire shouldn't even be in existence when using non lethals. That includes flashbangs. That's so incredibly stupid of your design.

A police officer would never shoot another police officer for unwarranted use of force. The idea that your "teammates" kill you immediately if you shoot someone in cuffs is beyond stupid.

Overall, this game has proven to be heavily unprepared for console launch. You guys should've had this tested for a few more months at least. There are so many more glitches I'm not mentioning. And the incompetence of the "teammates" can't be stressed enough

[remote shell]

Wander* off

[vagrant patrol]

After updating in PS5 the guns feel more inaccurate, and the bullet hit registration feels very uncalibrated. I unload an entire clip on a suspect and he doesn't flinch at all

[novel skiff]

whatever yall did to add the head bobbing to the door kicking animation (Patch 2) - it's way too much. Undo it, or at least cut it in half. it's borderline motion-sickness inducing.

[torpid cloud]

When is console getting a settings section for keyboard and mouse?

[drowsy fossil]

Please bring back the other kicking animation

[stable jackal]

I know this is probably the tism but i noticed the grip on the pistols is too high and very unrealistic as the slide actively is cutting into the hand, also the p90 model in 3rd person (when looking at the gun in customization is too small to the size of the guy) i have other minor nitpicks but the grip height is the biggest one as that actually ruins the immersion

[knotty wren]

Requesting audio level slider for voices in game please.

[remote shell]

Actions are not completed (wedge, move, open flash and bang), especially if I give the order and look away.

All my "teammates" have the m320 yet only 1 person seems to be designated to use it.

All teammates are equipped with flashes at the station, yet they show that they don't have any as soon as the mission starts.

Locked doors stop teammates completely. There needs to be a default backup instead of having to go back to them and telling them how to open a door.

NON LETHALS ARE NOT FRIENDLY FIRE. EVER.

Flashbang/stinger timing needs to be simultaneous to the door opening. Not this nonsense of waiting until the door is open to pull the pin.

"Teammates" love dying. It would be nice if they actually tried staying alive.

The position of an open door can stop all movement of "teammates". Meaning that after I give commands to open, they just stand there until the door is adjusted.

"Teammates" miss the doorway and flash/sting everyone.

The teammates constantly telling you to move is probably the most annoying thing. THEY need to move out of MY way.

We should not have to wait for the coughing animation to restrain suspects. That's a great design for us to be sitting ducks.

For enemies to fire accurately while moving around like Muhammed Ali is utter nonsense. If they're going to be accurate, they have to stay still.

The "search area" command means they need to search the area. Not stand there and say "got it".

I can't say this enough, the "teammates" need some common sense. They love dropping a chem light in the corner of a room and then just standing there.

Ever since the latest patch (.007) the "teammates" get stuck at the door and don't do any of the "open" commands. Even with the door open. I have to tell them to fall in and then try again and that usually works. Which of course is a great way to give the enemy plenty of time to kill us all.

[vapid garnet]

When you guys will let we broken lights to going dark? Broken glass with melee? Using one button to flashlight and o other to lasers and other to switch between IR and Visible Laser?

[stable elbow]

Something needs to be fixed on the hard difficulty. Enemy clearly has wall-hacks, 360 view, start shooting before fully turning around and hitting you with beyond pinpoint accuracy. The game doesn't feel difficult, it feels like we're playing hackers. I love difficult games, but the reaction time of the enemy is 0.01 and they can see you from like 100 meters away behind their back while you're peaking. It's too much. Doesn't feel fun. Instead please increase enemies, traps, hostage situations etc to make the difficulty harder. Increasing the accuracy, sure a bit, increase the reaction time, sure a bit, but cranking everything to 1000% is stupid. Thank you.

[lilac gate]

after the last update, loading is taking longer and the game is stuttering once again. CS gas not working. Nothing was really improved — it seems like a regression to me. The gameplay was so nice for us with low-end PCs. I wish I could roll back to before today’s update.

[azure kayak]

AI teammates are frequently clipping into each other, to the point where they're literally standing inside each other, during various breach animations, and after the "mirror under door" and "pick lock" animations.

Whenever the teammates reposition themselves in a stack-up formation, they need to not clip into each other. This is a new problem with the latest patch earlier today.

[primal hollow]

Never, they said already this won't happen

[thick barn]

On the fast food map SWAT AI still can get stuck had one get stuck when he tried to walk through two guys on the ground and then wouldnt be able to do anything else, even when those guys on the ground were moved away, another one got stuck after clipping through another officer while stacked up at a door and then wouldnt move for the rest of the match.

Also M320 gas grenade seems to only deploy gas after bouncing of a wall or ground first which makes it quite unpredictable where it will go. The M320 should go off on impact unless its too close as it does IRL

[severe rivet]

Anyone else have an issue where lean and free lean just straight up stop working?

Idk how to re-create the issue, but it just randomly happened to me while playing Neon Tomb right after one of my officers got dome'd

[viscid osprey]

Gas is STILL broken

[rapid jetty]

It is, and it's made worse by not being able to issue a command to deploy flashbangs, gas, or stingers through an open doorway.

I may not want to have my team to enter the room after throwing gas, I just want them to gas the room. But now I can't tell them to gas without entering.

And if I tell them to "Move and Clear with Gas", half the time the team can't even throw the gas through the door before they enter, leading to slaughter.

[viscid osprey]

Yeah they throw the gas and don't even wait for it to deploy lmao

[rapid jetty]

It would be great to have more options for custom difficulty. For instance I would like to enable enemy squad behaviour without having enemies with superhuman aim and reaction times.

Right now that's not possible because the preset difficulty options bundle so many things together, I can only have one or the other.

[rapid jetty]

Or they throw it in the wall and it bounces into the room I'm already in, so the room they enter doesn't have gas when they rush in (and then they can't see there's guy waiting for them just behind the corner, even though their gun is poking out).

[idle pasture]

Give the supporter edition items for free to everyone for the amount infestation of bugs and the amount of time you made so many players waste restarting their progress over and over due to so many bugs.

I wish I knew the game was in such a terrible state before I bought it but I wanted the preorder items.

As fun as the bonus items are. It wasn’t worth the pain and misery of every S run failing to a glitched out suspect.
Every Ironman run progress not saving.
Every time spent re doing loadouts because they get deleted even when saved. Every session I had to restart because the wrong attachment loaded in regardless of the correct one you picked.

Void you owe the community more than an apology.
Assassins Creed Unity gave everyone the dlc expansion for free.
Cyberpunk gave everyone eligible refunds.
What are you going to do Void.

[misty arrow]

the new kick animation looks awful like it looks straight out of SWAT 4 in the worst way possible just bring back the old one

[void grail]

Just unlock the supporter edition stuff for consoles already. Or make it attainable.

[drowsy fossil]

Bring back the other kicking animation and fix the getting your sea legs achievement

[ashen flicker]

Be awesome if CS Gas worked. I really do not care about the textures. How are priorities being adjudicated? Deeply regret recommending this game to friends on console.

[bright cloud]

The sleeper agent trophy/achievement is a real pain. Make it kill 15 in 15s that would be fair for a bronze trophy.
This is not a challenge it is torture

[azure kayak]

Recommendation about difficulty levels: Let us individually select difficulty parameters to tailor the experience to our specific preferences. Personally, I love the "Casual" mode since it offers an easier, somewhat more forgiving experience that I'm looking for. I don't want aimbot enemies who see me and snipe me from 500 meters away through a wall (unfortunately, this still seems to happen even on Casual mode).

But I would appreciate letting us set each specific option one by one: how much damage I take, how much damage my AI teammates take, how much health suspects have, how many suspects appear in a mission, how reactive and quick they are, how many (if any) door traps appear in a mission.

I'd also appreciate being able to play each map as basically a simple "terrorist hunt" mode where we don't have to worry about rushing through a mission due to "active shooters" or bomb threats and whatnot. I'm told by some PC players that this used to be a feature in the game but was later taken out. Not sure why--it would greatly enhance the replay value of Ready or Not.

[steep radish]

Thanks for your hard work on this patch. Unfortunately, the AI teammates still gargle nuts. They still ignore commands, and now I am having a problem where they will run away from me. I was just playing Carriers of the Vine on PS5 and ordered them to stack up on a door in the basement. 3 of them did, but the 4th AI teammate left. I have no clue where he went, but it was the complete opposite direction. Very unfortunate, and yet again, my coveted S-rank was ruined.

[remote shell]

I felt every bit of this bro

[remote shell]

💯💯

[sacred timber]

requesting players can go through appropriate sized windows

[steep radish]

The glitch is still happening on the pepperball rifle, where if you equip the laser pointer or IR laser, the flashlight just automatically equips

[remote shell]

Yes. I hope they see this too.

[cedar knot]

Make a way for the supporter edition items to be obtainable on console like anything cause I brought the basic edition in case I didn't like it but there is no way to get the supporter edition things cause U can't even upgrade to deluxe on console once U brought the basic version

Even if U made it so U could buy all the supporter edition things instead of making it so if I wanted a few guns and cosmetics I would have to rebuy the entire game again plus like an extra £20

[hushed marten]

Are the console online multiplayer constant sever crashes going to be resolved

[drowsy fossil]

Whoever made the OST for thank you, come again you literally cooked

[steep radish]

This is kind of messed up feedback, but on missions with families, you should make them react differently if a family member is injured or killed. Maybe that means surrender faster or fight harder.

[cursive vector]

Anyone else having issues the Ai squad not following the commands you give them? I tell them to clear a room and they just stand there doing absolutely nothing. It's really annoying.

[narrow lichen]

If the devs can see this can yall make it so modded pc can play with ps5 cause its really annoying I have to go in safe mode and have no mods

[torpid swallow]

its pretty much impossible to make mods on console

[glass trout]

This may feel like me crying but why is there a new kicking animation? I loved the old one

[severe dock]

The achievement was never fixed. From House to Home was not received (56% progress). Xbox

[delicate tusk]

So, not only is cs gas broken, but the new update also broke stinger grenades. Ffs!

[flint cliff]

free lean is completely busted is that right? I read that tons of times here now and my friend and I had the problem too

[lost sequoia]

Not sure if it’s just a computer issue on my end (very possible since I have the technology know how of a rock) but figured I’d mention that I noticed since the update my load times have more than doubled like to load into the main menu or into the station or into missions.

[misty arrow]

literally

[azure kayak]

I've experienced this problem as well. I told my team to stack up on a door in Neon Tomb. Three of them did, but the fourth turned around and ran away somewhere else.

[torpid swallow]

its the shaders compiling use dx11 if you want faster loading times

[lost sequoia]

Will that affect the graphics then?

[torpid swallow]

no, only performance. dx11 has fsster loading times but a bit worse performance

[lost sequoia]

Ohhhh ok ok. I’ll try that out this evening then. Thanks

[narrow lichen]

I mean like they don’t need to add mods to console just make a way so of and console can play together even though pc has mods

[torpid swallow]

console has some ai mods that work if a pc player has it

[narrow lichen]

Yea but like all the gun mods and cosmetic mods don’t work it’s annoying I have to redo my loadout and go into safe mode everytime

[wanton current]

same problem. i tell them to stack up and they run the opposite direction

[torpid swallow]

because as i said its pretty much impossible to mod console

[dark sparrow]

Subject: Request for Full Keyboard and Mouse Support on PS5

Hi Void Interactive team,

First off, thanks for all the hard work you’ve put into Ready or Not — it’s an amazing tactical shooter and I really enjoy playing it!

I wanted to kindly ask if you have any plans to add full keyboard and mouse support on PS5. Currently, the keyboard works but the mouse doesn’t, which limits the gameplay experience for those of us who prefer using keyboard and mouse on consoles.

Since Ready or Not is primarily a co-op tactical shooter without PvP concerns, adding keyboard and mouse support on PS5 would greatly improve precision and control without creating unfair advantages.

I understand development priorities and challenges, but I hope this feature could be considered in future updates. Thanks for listening to the community!

[oblique jewel]

Subject: Sniper Rifles

Adding snipers right now may not be the best considering the size of the maps but it would be cool to see a sniper added for maps where they will be useful in long range missions.

[steep radish]

Can you please train the monkey shit AI SWAT teammates to not stop at thresholds, they clog up doorways, creating fatal funnels. Also, it would be pretty cool if they didn't turn their backs on open doors. It would also be neat if, when clearing a room, they don't walk past surrendered suspects who are still armed. It's not fun getting railed from behind after you hear them yelling at suspects, then ignoring them completely.

[chilly imp]

It’d absolutely insane how stupid everybody is in this game. Your ai teammates stand by and just chill as you’re getting gunned down without doing anything. They scream for compliance for suspects across the building. The civilians have zero situational awareness too, you could be having a multi person gunfight in a room or area and they just stand there like nothings happening. Every sane person drops on the ground or at least ducks down, not stands there like an idiot to get shot by a stray bullet. That concerns all the AI in general. They’re either omnipotent with knowledge of exactly where everyone is at all times or complete idiots

[gleaming flicker]

or u could just make them like ghoats so u can just walk thru them in single player mode

[west linden]

Is it possible for the next update to have the option for PS5 players to port the voice chat to the controller? Kinda like how Hell Let Loose does it.

[scarlet pebble]

i am trying to go for an achievement(who is pepe silvia) on quickplay if i tell my ai to hold at the start make it so they won't go for the evidence while i am searching the map while still on hold command, or make it so they don't move across the map to "finish the mission" until i am dead *edit why do i have 6 officers and 2 don't listen, or die?

[ripe osprey]

the entire game is a broken mess tbf

[delicate tusk]

It is indeed, I should've listened to the PC community. I have to stop buying games upon release.

[steep radish]

I can't believe I spent $70 on what feels like an incomplete game. The worst part is the locked cosmetics, which I have no problem grinding for, except the fact that the bugs and glitches make it nearly impossible

[sacred timber]

where's my RPG

[bitter storm]

Void please let us pen walls better than we can now. Suspect pen is crazy and ours is shit

[cosmic raptor]

Suspects and player have same pen as they use same ammo with the same pen stats, the only difference is that suspects deal very low damage on wallbangs compare to player

[bitter storm]

Gamer these suspects pen through shit with 9 mil that i can’t pen with .308

[cosmic raptor]

Not a thing, provide a clip of that

Like that https://youtu.be/6xxtbfR9vkQ?feature=shared

[shadow goblet]

Please let us have a command that sets the Swat AIs engagement so they don't just immediately shoot a target

[near trench]

I think the bigger issue is their accuracy and tracking when penetrating walls

[bitter storm]

Thats prolly it

[bitter storm]

Yeah suspects will catch a single pixel of me and proceed to blow off my legs, arms, and chin, completely ignoring all my armour and any cover i’m in

[inner kettle]

Please Make the voices a bit higher pitched again just maybe muffle them, it makes it impossible to hear commands and AI team mates call outs while using ballistic face mask

[near trench]

Perhaps reworking on how the enemy ai runs? It just looks like they r sliding sometimes and overly quick. They seem to slide while shooting at the same time too and its just silly to look at

[dusty summit]

Could the SWAT AI please prioritize neutralizing active threats before moving in front of me and out in the open to restrain someone?

[sleek spindle]

same

[brazen sand]

thoughts on PC and console lfg channels to make it organized

[meager fjord]

Grenade changes, can we get a roll and quick throw? Like tapping the grenade button to basically pull and throw although less accurate then if you were to have it prepped, and far less accurate then if you have pin pulled.

If prepped can a tap or long press of the throw button roll it instead of throw it?

[ripe osprey]

you're concerned about game changes? when RON is so broken, it's virtually unplayable

[fading epoch]

could it be possible to get ahold of the aim point optic for assault rifles please? I find it very frustrating that smgs and battle rifles get access to this legendary optic yet ar’s get shafted?

[exotic forge]

The game is great thank guys happy to help you on the operator équipement and other you have a pépite in your hands

[near trench]

Please for the love of God make the secure all civillians obj as optional, the fun goes out the window when u end up spending 20 mins looking fir the last civillian and its also common for them to spawn in areas you cant get to or just not spawn at all

[ripe crow]

id rather they fix guns glitching in the floor and suspects glitching into walls first since that's actually game breaking and consistentnly negates hours of your time spent doing S ranks

[chilly imp]

It is extremely annoying when you tell some swat AI’s deploy their shields and they pull it out for like five seconds and then switch to their primary. Then you do it again and they just keep switching back all the time

[tulip schooner]

I got some ideas that could be interessting.

-Give the Player the option to adjust the colour of weapons Glow to make it easier to find, some maps have a yellow glow which makes seeing the gun in the yellow grass or bright yellow lighting really hard.
-make it so that when weapons get tossed into an impossible to reach area, they get auto collected or spawn at the beginning of the map or next to the suspect.
-Shorten certain arresting animation for (example the one where you grab the suspect by the head and kick their side), since some of them feel a bit dragged out.

Nothing huge just some small adjustments that could make it more fun and nice to play.

[fossil dragon]

Why the hell do homeless people have trip wire bombs on dorms hard mode?

[distant vault]

Probably already mentioned but for future DLC I reckon a good map would be a container ship overrun by pirates….possibly too big though to encompass superstructure, engine rm plus cargo holds but would be cool

[brazen sand]

mods please make pc and console lfg channels

[mortal cedar]

A cosmetic for completing all base missions hard mode would be pretty cool. Maybe a tattoo or something. Between Relapse and Greased Palms i want a memento beyond a steam achievement lol

[fervent oyster]

please fix the achievements in the game

[steep dove]

Devs actually read on here or is there a better way to reach them

[uneven garden]

There should be a random chance on maps that have lots of civilians that one civilian tries to be a hero , maybe have the hostiles rough him up a bit or tries to bring him somewhere to execute

[humble nacelle]

The max player count is 5? if you’re on PC you can increase limit to 16

[dense parcel]

Please add the difficulty of the mission you completed onto the Scoreboard Screen! Not just your personal best

[humble nacelle]

Pretty sure it does

[dense parcel]

I just see the personal best difficulty

[uneven garden]

Add the ability to turn off the lights in rooms

[dense parcel]

Would love to see the DLC 1-3 OSTs on Spotify if possible

[azure kayak]

The simple option to disable on-screen damage/blood/red effects when you're shot or bleeding, screen-blurring/distortion effects when you're being shot at, and general screen shake effects (like when you detonate a C2 charge).

[odd galleon]

Question is the the right channel to request the devs for future weapon add on? If so could yall consider the Desert Tech WLVRN in .308, 5.56, and .300 blk similar to how you have the options for the H&K UMP in 9mm and .45 ACP. Also speaking of .45 ACP could yall consider the FN FNX 45 TAC pr 545 Tac? Or a 10mm handgun. Thank you much

[celest raven]

This would make NVGs actually useful, in Sinuous Trial there's even the electrical box in one of the hallways. You should be able to cut power to the building IMO

One other huge suggestion I have is the issue where melee is like throwing a straw. If I am close enough I should be able to hold the melee button to, as officers often say, "Assist the suspect to the ground"

[lofty thicket]

Your toon moving to a "muzzle up" position while a suspect is in your face shooting is frustrating. If they can shoot you, you should be able to return fire. You can not backpedal fast enough to get the gun back down.

[tacit lodge]

Please void, if you are required to ID verify EU users, use something secure and don't outsource it to Persona.

[quasi mauve]

Good morning. The SMG Raider X P 320 no permit the use of flashlight is bugged with a laser aim. Please verify to solve the problem and and it's possible that they add save points in the levels, it's unfair to restart a mission when you're about to complete it.

[lapis dirge]

We need a code join system, me and the boys have been sitting here for 30 minutes trying to join a game because the epic game join system is broken for us and its the only way to crossplay between pc and Xbox

[ruby zodiac]

Fix the ai teammates, their reaction time and shooting accuracy is worse than the ai criminals.

[vast pollen]

Mirage At Sea, The yacht map, Needs a better OST. The maps current music is super forgettable and doesn't even have combat music.

[long crater]

I think it would be nice if the 1-4x and 1-12x had a way to adjust zoom level, especially the 12x since it HAS a dial on it for that but we can't use it, also would be nice if we could change the sensitivity for the high range scopes separately from the other sights cause at the moment aiming with a 12x gives the same sensitivity as aiming with a red dot which makes using the scopes difficult.

[prime blade]

Me cool idea ..

Prison riot idea that has different gangs in the prison
LSPD Swat is sent in to control the situation.
The prisoners have taken control of the prison and have taken the warden hostage, they have access to the prisons weapons

Dope idea

[steep radish]

That's a sweet idea. I was thinking about a bank robbery or a plane hijacking. Steal some ideas from R6

[novel skiff]

Supporter here.. Please fix this stuff soon. I want to go back to loving this game. I know that's whiny but damn. It wasn't perfect pre-LSS but it was a lot better than this. Wasn't worth getting new maps and other features for how many things broke.

[brittle portal]

Ever since the update the AI is significantly worse. Teammates are potatoes and enemies have even better aimbot than before.

[novel skiff]

Love seeing you get hit by a gun pointed in the opposite direction

[muted meteor]

It's supposed to say "are a" but it says "area"

[jagged sun]

Please fix the AI teammates. For some reason, if its an open door or just a open entry area, they often times bug out and dont even enter into the room or only 1 or 2 enter the room. On rust belt I sent 2 guys to go into a open room I flashed already, and only ONE GUY went in, stared at the wall whilst the suspect was flashed and when he got back up he shot my teammate. Other guy stood outside the room doing nothing.

[brazen tusk]

can we get a skip or fast forward for the scores at the end of the missions

[rocky finch]

Nerf enemy AI,they are so overpowered,and to the people that will tell me “get better” just don’t,because the AI is highly powerful

[light tapir]

Happens very often on that map.

[light tapir]

W idea

[tiny gulch]

We need a playback feature that's all I got for ideas

[chilly imp]

Sometimes one guy just walks off to fuck knows where into the tunnels in the opposite direction

[celest raven]

When muzzle bashing enemies add an option to hold the melee button and "Assist" the suspect to the ground, also when I peek a door and shoot Amos Voll in the hands he shouldn't be able to turn and one shot me when he doesn't have a line of sight. I literally had the whole map cleared so I could torture him and this happens? Additionally add reactions for Amos Voll such as crippling him with shots to the legs, arms, etc. and screams of pain from him. I think all will agree this is necessary.

[stone fractal]

I could see a map inspired by the GIGN (yes it is police) retake of Air France Flight 8969 in 1994. It'd fit perfectly into RoN and allows for multiple ways to do it. Maybe also allows for the the sniper to be added to RoN (like the heli cam on the DLCs)

[feral sleet]

i must say on my 12th attempt of relapse and down over half a roster can you guys please fix the aimbot on these ai's i mean theres no reason i should be getting sniped across the catwalk from another building by a literal pistol and then my ai teammates sometimes occasionally get bored of saving lives and start booking it away from me

[lapis mesa]

Please fix the ai team mates. They should have a general procedure for rooms, not just staying in a single file stack the entire time. Im walking around with 5 guns but only one that works, and they love to stack so close that if I need to bail I cant, honestly they are more of a problem than asset half the time

Also. There is no hard mode. Its either too easy or why do I even play this. No criminal is turning around and hitting me from 50 yards with a 5.7 in .00001 seconds. It kills the realism.

Also. No swat team in the US is issuing a 4x sight with an ironsight on top. Red dots are mandatory in almost every police force.

[dull basin]

What do you mean man, the AI is literally PERFECTION.

[crude fjord]

bullet coming out from his ass, damn, we're dealing with sup veteran here

[rancid spindle]

Hello Devs.

First of all, thank you for creating such an amazing game. The realism, the attention to detail, and the constant updates have truly made Ready or Not one of the most unique tactical shooters out there.

I’d like to suggest a future mission idea: a bank robbery scenario.

This kind of setting fits perfectly with the game’s theme, and I believe many players would love to experience it. Imagine suspects taking hostages inside a large bank, operators clearing multiple floors, handling panicked civilians, and facing unpredictable criminal behavior—it would create an incredibly tense and realistic situation.

Here’s why I think this scenario would be a perfect addition:

・Classic yet fresh setting:
Bank robberies are iconic in SWAT history and films, but Ready or Not’s realistic systems would make it feel brand new.

・High tension gameplay:
The layout of a bank—tight hallways, open lobbies, secure vault areas—offers varied tactical challenges.

・Increased civilian risk:
Banks are crowded, meaning balancing speed and caution would be critical to avoid civilian casualties.

・Replayability:
Multiple escape routes, randomized suspect behavior, and even robbers disguising themselves as civilians could make each playthrough unique.

Such a mission could easily become one of the highlights of the game and would align perfectly with Ready or Not’s style of tactical, methodical gameplay.

Also, please know that you have strong support from fans all over the world—including myself here in Japan.🇯🇵

I’m really excited to see where you take this game in the future, and I’ll continue cheering you on from here.

Thank you again, and keep up the amazing work!

[chilly imp]

The realism is indeed beyond the utmost bound of human thought

[chilly imp]

And the Ai is even better

[vast pollen]

I like the new suspect ai personally but the swat ai is unforgivably bad right now

[undone cipher]

Here's a fresh one.

If legs are still operative, they should cause the same damage to doors as the battering ram.

Maybe slightly less, they can be closed 1 more time?

[sharp onyx]

To make sure you kick open a door 100% of the time without a broken leg you’d need an officer with the kicker trait.

[placid salmon]

(posting on the feedback forum wouldn't work, I'll post PS5 feedback here)

• The X button is both contextual and to issue orders to "get down", but this often causes doors and evidence to be shouted at. And holding circle to melee (tapping is crouch) and clicking both L3+R3 to use the locked lean which has much better range, I wish I could change the button mappings for controller.

• Paper doll damage icon showing when you lean left/right or lock side step would be a nice extra bit of info (canted aiming looks a bit like you're still leaning one way)

• I'd love it if the black space to the right of the weapons/equipment loadout screen had info about all items (i.e can lasers bee seen by enemies? do flashlights lower enemies accuracy when pointed at them - are they different lumens? And just general weapon info like calibre, feet per second or velocity (damage), rounds per minute or fire rate (whether written or shown by bars).

• Also I'd love it if the black area mentioned above in loadouts to the right, had a visual representation of the gun sight used (as seen looking down them) this would be hugely useful at a glance if always available to see per weapon. Along with them shown when scrolling though the different sights.

• If you want to be hardcore, an animation that turns a dial on reflex/scopes to change the dot size (MOA/minute of angle) this would be so cool. It could be added to D-pad or a 2nd embedded D-pad direction and allow for one to change the dot size based on range (lower MOA for small dot and long range acquisition, higher MOA for big dot and close quarters). You can change on real sights the size of crosshairs in general, and even their brightness (though that probably isn't needed for the game).

• Camo skins and ghillie wrap for guns possibly?

• Balaclavas, I can't see any balaclava's in the customization screen? If there's none please add these, they're very often used by SWAT.

• An option possibly to customize the equipment wheel and which categories or items are embedded within? I'd love this as I'd prefer quick access to taser or some items on the first wheel for instance - instead of going through multiple wheels. This would be great too for various missions if wheel pre-sets could be saved, maybe one mission demands quick non lethal tools. The same could possibly be applied to SWAT team command wheels.

• Sniper rifles, I hope in the future we'll see a category for marksman rifles (one or two are in the AR section) and sniper rifles with long range scopes. This game has so much potential for long range combat, one team can provide overwatch from a roof or somewhere whilst another moves in etc. And using mounts maybe when crouched to help stabilize. This could open to question of an option to lay prone and crawl? (better weapon stabilization or making yourself a smaller target).

• I think the melee animation and sound effect are underwhelming currently, it'd be cool if it had a little more oomph to it to properly convey the weight of a weapon strike (sound effect if hitting a wall etc).

• Thermal vision goggles (do SWAT use these?)

• Smoke grenades to obscure vision (these would be very handy).

• 1st responder mode: I know this would be popular as think there's a PC mod for it, but police uniforms, basic armour, and a pistol only (possibly a shotgun) to emulate that scenario (unless the uniform etc is already in the game)

Map ideas:

• A big supermarket, like a real life one (Sainsbury's/Walmart etc) lots of long aisles with suspects, potential for hostage situations and a mix of long range combat and in the offices/staff areas short range.

• A live music event (probably best suited to long range, or sniper rifles which aren't currently in the game).

• A terror incident, such as a bridge/high street where attackers are mainly armed with knives, could be hiding in interiors.

[chilly imp]

Make your game work like an actual full console game not like a random mobile game

[torpid cloud]

Still waiting for keyboard and mouse settings menu on console

[spring relic]

I know i am in the minority but i would like there to be a toggle to turn off the nvg activation sound from the tinitus ringing as it always pierces my ears in a uncomfortable way. either a option to turn it off or have a option to have a less intrusive sound if needed for turning on the nvgs for some reason.

[humble nacelle]

I’m not sure if I’m understanding you correctly. You want option to turn off the sound that plays when you pull down the NVGS?

[spring relic]

yeah, there is a high pitched sound that appears when you pull them down over your eyes ingame, and it is in the pitch of giving me stabbing pains in my ears unfortunately. so an option to either turn off or have an optional sound that is not a high pitched ringing.

[humble nacelle]

Uhhhhhh unless I don’t know what definition is of high pitch, it doesn’t exist to my knowledge in the game

[spring relic]

basically i dunno if it's supposed to simulate tinitus or something, it's a ringing/high pitch ringing that always happens when it is pulled down. unless you don't hear the sound once the nvgs are on

[humble nacelle]

Are you sure that’s not on your end? Cause for me there is not high pitch sound whatsoever with pulling down the nvgs

[spring relic]

no i have had a few others tell about the same audio, there is a ringing sound or something when the nvgs are pulled down and your screen lights up with the nvg. but i guess i am just overly sensitive on that frequency part. always been a thing for a long time but i thought it was patched out or something, haven't paid attention to it. i have no mods installed and run the game purely vanilla and it keeps me from using nvgs as often.

[crimson thunder]

Gotta love how they never fixed this but only put in a movement speed cap in how fast they can turn around lol

[placid salmon]

Just a little feedback about the censorship and story impact playing this on PS5. On 23 megabytes a second, it isn't immediately clear what the streamer suspect had done wrong (he just has documents in his drawer and mindjolt is mentioned). It was even more baffling on valley of the dolls I did today, an adult movie producer who isn't coy about lewd photography no doubt, has pictures of dolls on his walls? I don't understand the logic to it in terms of story. I know these had to be censored for age ratings, but the story element and emotional impact feels lost, can these not be brought back - maybe mostly covered up with spraypaint or something like they tried to destroy the evidence? (there are photos of kids in the Brixley talent centre still)

[azure kayak]

I can attest to this too. When you activate your NVGs, there's the sound of you physically pulling the goggles over your eyes, and that's followed by a faint but noticeable tinnitus-style high-pitched activation sound that lasts for just a few seconds and fades away.

[raw axle]

Devs i see there's lack of half finger gloves in the game but in some artwork i see the contrary can you plz put some thx 🙂

[bitter whale]

Hey Devs, liking the game for the most part, though there are some notable issues as I’m sure everyone here is letting you know.

My main issue is regarding the “Hard” difficulty mode:

TL;DR: Hard mode feels broken. Enemies have near-superhuman aim and reaction times, unarmored suspects are unrealistically tanky and seem to have X-ray vision, and dying happens in milliseconds. Some aspects of the mode are fair, but a lot of its challenge feels unbalanced, unrealistic and just straight up broken.

Problems I’ve noticed (and other players have noticed too):

• Superhuman reactions & accuracy: Enemies snap onto you instantly and can hit you from ridiculous distances through tiny gaps. Maps like Greased Palms and Hide & Seek are especially bad—it feels less like facing criminals and more like facing a team of Deadshots and John Wicks.
• Wall-hits / X-ray vision: Enemies can seemingly track you through walls and wallbang with near-perfect accuracy.
• Tanky unarmored suspects: Sometimes they shrug off multiple 7.62 rounds, or even slug shells, without flinching or having the slightest bit of a pained reaction. You can do everything right—pie a door slowly, get the drop, land rounds—and still get insta-killed after shooting first.
• Low player health vs superhuman suspects: Low health is realistic, but combined with the terminator level enemy aim and reaction times; death often comes in milliseconds regardless of whatever armour you and your team are wearing.
• One of the more obvious and egregious problem—enemies can seemingly shoot you without their gun even being faced your way. Are they ricocheting bullets of walls to hit me whilst I’m behind them.
• Things that actually work: Smarter enemy tactics, extra traps, shorter bomb timers, and reduced health—fair meaningful and believable challenges; everything else just feels cheap and broken.

Achieving the “I’m Too Old For This” has become an exercise in masochism rather than a test of skill.

I hope there are there plans to tweak this difficulty mode so that it’s challenging in a manner that doesn’t feel unfair and broken.

On less urgent matters: is there any chance we’ll get balaclavas or masks as cosmetic options in future? That and fingerless gloves? As ‘ShinobiZero’ pointed out you can see them in marketing material but there isn’t an option for them in game.

[unkempt quest]

In the discord channel, can you separate the voice channels by PC/CONSOLE and M

[magic hare]

Do you think you could remove the cuffing animations where judge just smacks the suspect before cuffing them? It’s bizarrely disproportionate and always bugs out, if I’m bothering to cuff someone, I’m not in the mood for excessive force

Like, if I’m making arrests, then I’m making arrest. I’d spam melee if I wanted to kick their asses

[azure kayak]

Sometimes, suspects seem unrealistically fast and powerful even on the Casual difficulty mode, which I prefer playing on. It's like even regular dudes (not ex-solders or whatever) will just 360 noscopes me from 500 meters away and put me in a bleeding state in just one shot. I'd appreciate it if suspects could generally be less accurate and less reactive on Casual (which is how that mode is advertised, I think).

[placid salmon]

Even worse I think is when Judge caresses a suspect's head during arrest, I have no idea what that was supposed to be

Just some feedback for the artists/level conceptual people, brilliant job. Just did the female cult farm stage, the detail and attention to creating a certain atmosphere is top tier (thought looks like it goes into every 3D asset). Also the moral grey area's in some missions with suspects; it's not overdone to create some fallacy where all suspects have some moral justification, but good when it is implemented.

[fair thorn]

Judge grabs the suspect's head and knees them in the back to straighten them up, making it easier to detain them.

I didn't notice that he knees the suspect until someone else pointed it out, but it's true.

[stark depot]

AR has a lot of recoil, Mics are busted (Have to be in proximity, voice volume is not loud enough), 416 isn't on suppressor mode even on a suppressor, AR muzzle is hot

[azure kayak]

I don't know if we'll ever get this, but I'd love to see less kickback and recoil on more of the assault rifles. For now, I primarily use the G36 because it has wonderfully, refreshingly low per-shot recoil, kinda like a submachine gun, and I love it! But I wish more of the ARs had this too.

[placid salmon]

Small feedback about crouching: When crouched the character's view is low as expected, but when crouch moving it's at the same height as running. It'd be better I think if crouch moving had a slightly lower 1st person view than running, to better convey you are moving in a lower stance. (The paper doll shows crouching but takes eyes off the screen, and I bet most play with UI turned off for realism like myself)

Would be great if the last 3-4 suspects begin advancing towards your position instead of the other way around, would rlly save me and my friends some time on having to spend 20 mins extra playing cat and mouse w the last few suspects. Especially on the bigger maps

[tame igloo]

FIX YOUR GAME BECAUSE CRASHES ARE TOO FREQUENT!!!! There should be no reason when I am at the end of Relapse while cuffing the last guy, the game crashes.

[spice ice]

So I did just did some RoN Recoil Testing

The conditions of the test were:

• All Weapons are given a Suppressor, an EXPS3/RMR and Laser Pointer for consistency and for some recoil reduction to avoid not printing on the human-sized target paper.

• All weapons will perform a quick, uncontrolled semi-auto double tap and have the distance between two bullets measured to gauge their recoil.

Rudimentary Results?

F90 < or = G36C < ARN-180 < SR-16 = MCX < ARWC < LVAR < Mk 18 = Mk 16 < GA416 < or = DM4PDW < SLR47

Which is kinda funny for a lot of the options here because, as example, for weapons like the G36C to have much less recoil than the GA416, something that’s using the same operating system. Or the SR-16, Mk 18 and DM4PDW not being higher up on the list. And this hasn’t accounted for battle rifles.

Please just do another revision VOID.

[spice ice]

Battle Rifle Result: GA51 = G3A3 < M14-S16 < Mk 17 < SA-58

[patent fractal]

The ai teammates keep on getting stuck on the smallest things

[rich vale]

i played the update for the first time last night with 3 people and something we all talked about was since the new update came out the graphics for the character models has decreased we didn't change anything in settings just noticed that they look very plastic like and not as realistic as they used to be.

[brazen zinc]

Any news from the developers? It would be great if the idea could be implemented.

[humble nacelle]

not gonna happen

[lime vault]

Truly astonishing when an enemy is inside of my plate carrier with me and I can't do anything whatsoever except maybe melee once for compliance that does not work 50% the time. I should be able to grab them and turn them from a hostile into a pile of meat

[lime vault]

Even if, I have to drop my weapon onto the ground or retain it with a sling I would rather have an immediately actionable lethal melee option and retrieve my firearm later than to stand there with my thumb rammed up it just letting the hostile do with me as he pleases

[brazen zinc]

That's sad, because some missions are difficult for two players and I don't always want to be in a full lobby with my brother.

[humble nacelle]

Completely understandable would deffo be a nice feature to have

[safe hamlet]

I think void need to add 3rd person perspective and female playable officers

[azure kayak]

Please don't increase the recoil/kickback of any assault rifles, devs. If anything, I'd like to have less recoil/kickback on more of the assault rifles so that I have more options to play with. I keep defaulting back to the G36C because its recoil is refreshingly low, making it my favorite in the assault rifle category. I just wish more assault rifles had the same. 🤷‍♂️

(I understand that the F90 rifle also has pretty low recoil/kickback, but I tend not to use it because it's just kinda ugly-looking.)

[lime orbit]

3rd person is too unrealistc for the game AND its a FPS

can i recomend that we have (inside the station) we can interact with people and talk to them, like talking to the cheif, talking to some general people (EG therpist people around the station) about things like work and the mental health etc

[lime orbit]

and for during the mission with the container (with women) that judge visble recoils and covers his eyes

(this could confilct with the USIA theroy but could make sense as to why he recoils*

[zinc olive]

Can we please get an option for dialogue volume control ?

[lime orbit]

we dont have that?

[zinc olive]

@lime orbit
Nope, it's linked to the SFX so turning it down effects all sound effects - gun fire, explosions etc

[lime orbit]

:augh:

[stark depot]

I know HK416 has a lot of recoil

[void summit]

What’s the point of having a briefing that tells you the suspects identity just for you to arrive and 4 of the suspects are the exact same guy

[fair thorn]

Because they only tell you about the important suspect(s) that you wanna take in alive. Everyone else is an unimportant filler character. If they're a named suspect, there's only one of them.

[steep radish]

Is anyone else having a problem with the AI teammates not being helpful? I'm trying to S rank Hide and Seek and they make it so frustrating. Clearing out massive spaces, and they go stand in a corner while I get shot in the back. They literally walk past surrendered suspects. It would be great if the move and clear command included arresting suspects

I am also having a problem where unarmored suspects are bullet sponges, specifically Michael Williams.

[safe hamlet]

Please fix the Gas Grenades not working

[past totem]

Squad ai is horrendous constantly blocking doors they run off on their own with clear orders etc it does get very messy

[chrome osprey]

They're not bugged but heavily nerfed by reaction time and radius

[void summit]

@fair thorn I just played gas station and came across 3 orange hoodies.

[placid salmon]

Near every single door I go through gets blocked by the team, they need to make it so they aren't physical entities when you collide with them, or so they never stand in doorways/in front of them. With many narrow passages they'd have to retreat out of a coridoor when you look at the door behind them and move to it though. Maybe letting you walk through them is best

[placid salmon]

They wouldn't add 3rd person as it'd change the game and realistic 'in the cops shoes' vibe. But I'd like to see female SWAT/police. (And balaclava's as gear..it's on the front cover but not in-game I don't think)

[void grail]

Is Hard difficulty fixed yet?

[placid salmon]

Civilian dialog feedback:
On Neon Tomb, there was a civilian woman kneeling next to a mountain of bodies on the dance floor, when I killed a terrorist she said "they didn't do anything, you sick fuck". Then a few seconds later "Thank god, it's you". Then when I killed another terrorist 15 seconds later in this room she said again "they didn't do anything, you sick fuck". Maybe that piece of dialog should be disabled for this mission lol.

[rich vale]

id be pretty cool if get shot and needed to stop the bleeding you could see yourself put a turner kit on the body part and maybe if there was a first aid kit in deployables

[gusty kayak]

Can you please fix the goddamn game. I just went on Valley of the dolls while trying permadeath mode. Last suspect was bugged so I couldn't arrest him. Killed a civilian so I can continue the missions and got killed by the AI and lost the playthrough. Please fix the game

[placid salmon]

I think the rules of engagement need to be relaxed a lot where armed suspects are concerned, or severely tweaked depending on the mission. Real SWAT don't down terrorists (at a casualty spree situation) and then leave them to pick up a gun/play dead. They aim center mass to stop the threat completely including when they fall and then cease fire when the threat has subsided and continue to the next threat. But in this, your SWAT team will shoot you for shooting..armed terrorists. And sometimes when a suspect hasn't surrendered which could be a bug. Really needs tweaking, the only time you should be penalized is if they put their weapon down and are on their knees' when they've visibly surrendered. If they're firing at you, and you fire back then this penalty should be wavered.

[frail yoke]

The pepper in this game is incredibly broken. I shouldn't have to shoot a suspect in the face with eight pepper balls before they become incapacitated. That's not how it works. Also the gas in this game is laughably stupid. They have to be within four feet of the gas and they are only incapacitated for the duration of the gas which is only about ten seconds. Realistically, I should be able to launch a few rounds of gas into a house and the whole house would be gassed within minutes (provided the doors are open, but even then, the closed rooms would eventually become affected). This needs to be fixed. You're selling a $50 game with these cringey aspects. That's cringe.

Also PLEASE ADD RUBBER BULLET ASSAULT RIFLES

[signal moat]

Yep. I played the game like crazy on release. It was buggy but extremely fun and enjoyable. The latest patch removed that and so much just takes the fun out of it. Can't even do permadeath mode until the game gets fixed

[ornate raptor]

Has the connection been fixed?

[wet agate]

Who thinks that a jail map should be added?

[past osprey]

Option to change the color of the light on the helmet

Would be easier to recognize who belongs to which team, not for cosplaying but because it has a role

[placid salmon]

Small feedback on Judge dialog to TOC, when reporting something alarming that makes judge shout, the preceeding "TOC is this element lead" or what have you should also be loud/alarmed. Otherwise he calmly says "TOC this is element lead" followed by screaming suddenly "OFFICER DOWN" etc

[lucid ether]

Like why all can shoot trough iron bar windows, and i cant? Wtf.. Fix this this not normal..

[whole thunder]

suspects should have animations to prevent guns clipping through walls, it ruins the immersion and the thrill of not knowing where terrorists or suspects are

[ornate raptor]

Did you fix the connection?

[remote shell]

Here is visual evidence that the weapon does not shoot at the reticle. I've been saying for weeks how the weapons are not zeroed in. I hit people all the time with (what should be) headshots and just any shots but the firearm simply shoots elsewhere. No idea where these rounds are are going but it sure isn't at the reticle. Here's a helpful tip to the admins, bullets go where the gun points 👍🏾

[marsh pumice]

if your gun is zeroed in on 100m you gonna hit low when close range, some games like insurgency have this feature that the bullet goes out actually from the muzzle not the reticle like Siege. However idk if it is this insurgency like feature or a bug in your case

i also found out that the game does register a round in the chamber in semi auto guns meaning when you switch a half empty mag for a fresh one u get that 1 round extra in the gun

so thats why i thought it can be a feature not a bug

[marsh pumice]

ye on realapse you can identify the disguised suspects pretty easily when they have a visible glock on the waist and speak arabic

[manic wharf]

I wish that there was a way to cut power to houses before entering them so nightvsion could play a more strategical role

[humble nacelle]

Problem is that a feature like that doesn’t provide any gameplay benefit besides just cool factor. Cause you also have to make variables around that feature, you have to make Ai for example actually not behave same in dark. Cause right now Ai see just as good in darkness as if nothing is there. Like it’s very useless to add something that won’t actually change much in gameplay but to answer the question devs have very firmly said no to a feature like that due to way maps are designed in unreal engine.

[whole thunder]

that makes sense, but not the fact on how sometimes you can easily find what room the suspect is before even reaching the door

[remote shell]

Lol I've never even thought of a gun firing from the reticle. That would make even less sense. If it shot lower, then I would be hitting the suspects, the game simply doesn't have accurate firing. I come across it every single mission.

[marsh pumice]

same here

[marsh pumice]

i kinda see this only when im shooting from a canted position otherwise im good with my shots

[remote shell]

Man, the game would be so much better if I had your experience. My friends and I take videos of the reticle being dead on still missing every day.

[charred coral]

Yo is it possible that there will be helmets like this in Ready or Not?

[shadow mirage]

System for AI Officers and Tactical Paramedics to clear room you've marked as clear. You can ask toc for these teams to escort wounded or surrendered civilians outside. If the Officers/Paramedics are harmed in anyway (e.g. marking a room full of suspects as clear) then you will be penalized. It would also be nice to add some NPC's standing around the Bearcat, for some quality of life.

[marsh pumice]

Big OOF

[fallen sonnet]

does anyone know why me and my friend cannot join eachother? i am on pc and he is on ps5, we are both connected through epic games but it will not allow neither of us to invite or join eachother.

[remote shell]

Admins, I'd really be willing to let you see some gameplay so you could see how poorly so many aspects of the game perform. It's me against my own ai teammates' incompetency and technical issues every mission. If I can overcome those 2 things, the missions would be no problem.

[latent acorn]

Just a thought but there should be a feature like the coffee machine where the officers can take a donut from the box in the briefing room it'd be a nice detail

[novel stone]

Its been an issue since the console release. For some reason the devs havent really fixed this yet.

[last hawk]

you found a fix?

[signal moat]

Some transparency on potential updates would be nice. Its been quiet... too quiet.

[opaque wraith]

Very true. Had the worst time trying to S tier all missions due to this. 4 officers all shooting at one guy refusing to surrender. So much fun.

[marble loom]

is there a possibility to put the old code in the beta-files in steam so we can play the old game?

[humble nacelle]

You're free to download older versions of a game, there's plenty of guides on the internet. Just keep in mind that mods and any issues on old versions are not at fault of the devs.

[marble loom]

okey thx

[steep radish]

It's great to see that PAX is more of a priority than putting out another bug fix. I just tried to S rank Valley of the Dolls and got screwed over again. First, when the mission was over, I ordered a search and secure. They missed two guns and completely ignored me to search and secure again. Also, it would be cool if you looked into the friendly fire with non-lethal options. When there is an armed suspect next to my teammate or a secured civilian, and I am forced to use my non-lethal weapon, I don't think I should be penalized for friendly fire. This has caused me to get an A+ more times than I can remember.

[sacred timber]

remove the mechanic where if you're pressed against a wall or teammate, your gun goes up and you can't shoot. i have died countless times to suspects rushing me around a corner and point blank lasering me in the face while i panic and try to back away, completely unable to shoot

[spice ice]

Suggestion: Make suspect weapons available to the LSPD after completing a mission. The suspect weapons should also come with more customization for us to use.
Example pics above for the M960

[fair thorn]

Melee them to stun them. Back up and shoot. B to melee on PC. Same on Xbox. Circle on PS5. On Console hold down the button. On PC, just tap.

[lofty wigeon]

Suggestion: add the replay camera for xbox so we can do some media which would be cool, also make an option so we can change wether the AI cuffs suspects automatically so the command to cuff is useful and so our team don't die when trying to cuff a civ same with securing firearms, if you can add a bodycam camera as well so we have helmet and a bodycam would be nice.

[sacred timber]

tried that, it doesn't work

[verbal cliff]

Suggestion: Make it possible to unlock doors from the inside by turning the locks. (Keybind: P )
Description: I find it odd that you aren't able to unlock doors from the inside as it would make it so you wouldn't need to kick down a door or picklock it from the inside. I'm not sure if this is just SWAT procedure where you aren't allowed to in case of traps or whether it's unrealistic for it to be used, but it should still exist.

[sacred timber]

add an achievement for dying 100 times in total.

"You Weren't Ready"

as well as

"Stop Resisting"

get 150 total penalties for unauthorized use of force

[storm shard]

I've seen yt vids where u can turn your head to look around or behind you without moving where your gun is facing. Ik we have free leaning but is there a way to do this free "looking" function on console or is it PC only. If so, add it to consoles already

[uneven yew]

Is the lspd combat shirt rolled green bugged for anyone else cause for me the model is bugged in first person

[tender cosmos]

Wtf is this quality

[left viper]

suggestion: I think it would be cool to see some sort of k9 that the player would be able to choose for a long tactical. this k9 should have its own command tab for it. this page would have commands like find or a command like attack. attack for example would make the dog attack any threat to the swat officers life such as if an ai aims a weapon at the player or another swat ai it would attack said ai. or lead the handler to the closest hostage. it would be cool to see it in co-op and the player that has the k9 can only control their k9 not other players.

[storm shard]

I've seen yt vids where u can turn your head to look around or behind you without moving where your gun is facing. Ik we have free leaning but is there a way to do this free "looking" function on console or is it PC only. If so, add it to consoles already

[regal aurora]

Suggestion 1: Please make it to where you are able to select different varieties of reloading such as; When reloading a handgun you can pick from pulling the barrel to slide it manually, or using the slide release for a faster load time.

Suggestion 2: Please make it to where the enemy don’t absorb 20+ bullets, as most of the time there is blood pouring out of their body yet still able to move way faster than I can & manage to run away unfazed, I get that adrenaline takes place but it won’t stop them from bleeding out. I feel like it’ll be a cool feature if they slowly bleed out over time, as when they do lose a lot of blood they are still in active threat later within the game.

[amber cosmos]

Holdout Scenario

A new gamemode. It's called Holdout. Basically, a team of 5 or fewer (or more if devs allow it) defend against waves of attacking enemies. you can use door wedges, teamwork to defend against escalating gunmen with heavier weaponry and armour. The gunmens get harder and more numerous as each wave passes. This is a SEPARATE gamemode from the campaign. It still has existing RON mechanics and i think it would bring in a lot of players and add more fun to the game.

Players manage chokepoints, wedges, and tactical positioning, while using flashbangs to assist you in arresting or neutralising gunmen. AI will escalate over time: better weapons, armour, coordinated breaches and occasional rushing of the player(s). Arresting the gunmens earn more points but it's risky as it makes the player vulnerable while cuffing. This also provides replayability without changing the campaign.

i can just imagine my friends and I on 3 Letter Triad holding a room against multiple, heavily armed suspects in a violent firefight for our lives.

[shrewd wharf]

i hope they don't go the way payday 2 story went with ||cthuluu is los pollos and he has been immortal for thousands of years|| that'd suck

[radiant hinge]

It would be great if Ready or Not had more varied and polished idle weapon animations, similar to how Call of Duty does it. Subtle movements like checking the weapon, adjusting grip, or shifting stance would make the game feel more immersive and reduce the static feel when the player is standing still.

[light elbow]

W

[radiant hinge]

yea i think that it will be a nice quality of life change

Also Ready or Not may have been released as version 1.0, but honestly, it doesn’t feel like a game that deserves that title yet. While it has strong graphics and solid animations, the overall experience still feels unfinished and lacking the polish expected from a full release.

Looking back at SWAT 4, it’s striking how much more atmosphere and tension that older game managed to deliver. The environments were oppressive and unsettling, the music created real fear, and the AI made every encounter unpredictable and intense. SWAT 4 made you feel anxious before every door breach—it was scary, immersive, and unforgettable.

Ready or Not, on the other hand, looks good on the surface, but it often feels too mechanical and clean. The tension, atmosphere, and unpredictability that made SWAT 4 so special just aren’t fully there yet. That’s why calling this 1.0 feels premature—the foundation is strong, but it still needs more work in sound design, AI behavior, and environmental atmosphere to truly live up to the legacy it’s aiming for. (Better explained in this video https://youtu.be/5PkGZeUFKvw?si=mVu_Y0r31PzqSJxF)

AI and Map Design Feedback

So I've long seen a problem with the suspect AI in regards to large maps. I last played a year or two ago and recently came back to the game. Same issues as before, the AI for suspects wasn't fixed.

So, I've tried a few mods to fix the AI to make it less aimbot and have slower reaction times, to much success. In particular the "Ready or Not Here I Come AI Realistic Mod Pack (DLC 3 Ready)" mod. In particular I tried Tactical (reasonably hard) and Arcade Modes: which was far too easy, but also very entertaining (love to see it added to RoN as a game mode).

By trying these AI mods for the game I figured out the fatal flaw of why huge maps such as Greased Palms are an issue with AI Suspect behaviour:

1. The maps have small gaps where AI can see far better than the player can. Leading to AI being able to cheese the player through blinds (example is Voll Health House). Fixing these small gaps where the AI can see the player before we can see them would greatly improve how the game feels. As of right now it doesn't feel fair at all.

2. AI suspects have far too far of vision. Generally the AI can see you when they are merely a few pixels, while you can't see them. This creates a bit of a problem when it comes to being able to respond to attacks.

3. AI reaction speed is way too fast. It's almost as if they're psychic as well as you come around corners, they just know exactly where you are.

4. Suspect AI sees through its body, not through its eyes. A good example is Greased Palms where there are trucks that have waist high gaps between them. Suspects are capable of being right up against the truck and still shooting through those gaps despite their faces being clearly above the gaps. Which leads me to believe that AI suspects need their vision cones limited to their heads or eyes.

I would like to see this tested by others to see if they can reproduce the same issues with the same AI mod.

[steep radish]

I know that they are just background characters, but it would be cool if there weren't duplicate suspects and civilians. Not a priority, just something that would add more depth.

[rocky spade]

Hey VOID team,

first of all - amazing work on Ready or Not! I've been following the game since beta and my squad and I love the realism, tactics, and atmosphere you've built. Achieving S-ranks together never gets old.

One feature we'd love to see in the future is official VR support.

VR would take immersion and realism to the next level:

leaning around corners naturally

using hand signals to communicate with teammates

practicing tactics in a way that feels almost like real training

I've experienced this kind of depth in Onward, and imagining it combined with the passion and detail of Ready or Not makes me believe it could set a new standard for tactical shooters - both in flat-screen and VR communities.

Thanks for considering this, and thanks again for your hard work!

Because using two different sets of connections is more trouble than its' worth

[mortal depot]

Hi, here are my suggestions;
tasers and beanbag rounds should knock suspects over.

Leg shots should cripple suspects and civilians.

Suspects shouldn’t be able to see so far, and their vision should be worse in the dark.

[mortal depot]

Addition;
Officers should gain less stress the longer they have been with you, and officer stress should show itself as saying stuff like the occasional “Fuck..” and “Shit, man…” after a gunfight or if injured, you should also be able to render first aid to injured suspects, officers and civilians.

[twilit echo]

I find something interesting: playing in hard mode, enemies can shoot through surfaces, even if their vision is obstructed. I can't see them, but then can see me and their aim is deadly, even shooting precisely through cover, knowing exactly where I am. This is such a turn off.

[uneven solstice]

Agreed, hard mode isn't "hard" it's artificial

[heady vessel]

Heya devs! Shields in the car that my team wears in preparation mode are going through the walls. Could ya make them hold shields somewhere in their hands instead of holding it behind their backs?

[azure kayak]

I'd love the option to be able to select my AI teammates and fill my roster in the Quick Play mode, even if the whole "officer traits" thing is disabled in that mode.

[tame moss]

Hostagetaking needs to be toned down a bit. It gets a little ridiculous for context I have a tradition of playing through every single mission available every time there’s an update to see if anything is different at all and I think so far on my play through I’ve had a hostage situation on every single mission, it’s ridiculous, but not only that sometimes a hostage will be taken all the way across the map from me and there’s no way anyone could’ve known the hostage was taken and then the hostage is killed before I could possibly get there in time and it’s known to me that the hostage was killed if there’s some all seeing eye somewhere, why isn’t he constantly giving me callouts like the hostage is taken and killed so far away from me it’s to the point where no one would even know whether or not they were killed during the swat raid and obviously this goes without saying, but it doesn’t really make much sense to grab somebody and shoot them because you know swat in the area realistically, they would grab the person within view of the SWAT team because that’s how a hostage works. “don’t come closer or I’ll shoot” not “I already killed a person screw you guys”

I’m playing on greased palms right now and I already lost a civilian to a hostage situation but to put in perspective how ridiculous this is I have yet to find his body and I’ve completed every other objective

[winged shard]

I’m seeing weird things on my ai squad mates when am customizing them and after that in the game they are not wearing the outfits and the plate carrier’s vests which I already save a loadouts

[severe rivet]

Bruh, I'm done with Hard mode in this game what the fuck.

[wanton leaf]

is the exploded face model when an enemy gets blasted by a shotgun ever going to be changed from just the bald black guy head model?
when i shoot an enemy on the face with a shotgun it just feels off when the rest of their body is white, while the head is just black.

[shrewd wharf]

Fix team AI. They all get confused now. Don’t do commands all bunch together then run off.

[earnest path]

current p2p method is unreliable
we really need a better alternative for this

[winged shard]

I know it took me days just to finish that mission on hard mode and I almost lost my shit.

[sly pasture]

this right here

[hushed ravine]

I don't know it just me or not but since patch #3, the free leaning is alot more stiff

[twilit echo]

So true. Also, one thing I find so stupid: security forces always say changing to your sidearm is always faster than reloading. Yet, I had an enemy running in my direction and ran out of bullets, clicked reload and then immediately after clicked to change to my sidearm. It didn't cancel my reload, it forced me to reload first and changed to my sidearm afterwards.

In hard mode, this is just so stupid. Please fix these issues.

[neon fiber]

For some reason during loadouts, after choosing my main gun and selecting the sidearm, it doesn’t register. I have to quit the window before I can select it.

[misty glade]

yeah if youre on console its fucked just hold down on dpad

[charred prism]

hello, definetely I would vote for such a feature that blocks kicking gamers on public servers ... such a waste of time joining in a public server and then a moron don't want to have strangers in his game, why not use a private game instead?

[charred prism]

How do I get this camera view on pc ?

[severe rivet]

Replay mode. If you have it deactivated, it's in the options menu.

[raw axle]

Add animations for optiwand similar to swat4 open and closing

[vestal flint]

[GAMEPLAY]

Hostage Situations

Don’t you guys find it weird that if a suspect is holding a civilian hostage, the only way to save the hostage is to kill the suspect? If you use any kind of utility on him (gas, flashbang, stinger), he kills the civilian. With gas that might be logical, but if a flashbang explodes at his feet, it feels like it shouldn’t cause the civilian’s death.

[GAMEPLAY]

Reload During Magazine Check

Another thing is not being able to swap magazines while checking them. For example, if I only have 2 bullets left in my current magazine, why can’t I press R again during that animation to immediately switch it, instead of putting it back in the gun first and then reloading?

[warped dock]

[Sniper Unit]
Like in SWAT 4, players should have accessibility to toggle on a view that can be zoomed in or out when controlling a sniper. Some maps like the Dark Waters, Home Invasion, or some vanilla maps, there should be an option to toggle sniper viewpoints. The viewpoints and shots could be controlled through the tablet.

[harsh swallow]

Not just yes, but hell yes!

[atomic arch]

Hi everyone,
I’d like to share some feedback as an Xbox player of Ready or Not:

Movement/Sprint: Adding a limited sprint option (affected by armor or gear weight) would make combat feel more balanced, since enemies often move very fast and it’s hard to keep up or flank them.

Non-lethal weapons: Pepper ball rounds and 12-gauge beanbag rounds feel inconsistent. More reliable behavior, new models, or additional non-lethal ammunition types would make non-lethal encounters more effective.

Missions: The current missions are great, but adding more scenarios would make the experience even better.

Thanks for reading, and keep up the great work on the game!

[dim heart]

I hope I'm in the right Discord channel?

I have a question.

Could the characters be made a bit more realistic?

For example,

hair, skin, pores, or clothing.

PS: Is it intentional that enemies can fire continuously without reloading?

I wish the entire VOID team a great weekend. You're doing a great job. READY Or Not is really fun to play. Keep it up.

[pulsar wind]

Hey guys, couple points of feedback, (NOT criticism) (the game absolutely rocks) (i love you guys man)

The Taser: Listen, the percentage of usage for the taser when not being used in a challenge or for an achievement is probably going to be extremely low, I understand. And also, appearance wise, the taser looks phenomenal, basically a replica of the Axon T7. With that being said, it does make me cringe a little when I don’t see my two copper wires after shooting, or two lasers to line up the upper body and lower body while aiming, or the screen being updated subsequent to unloading a bay. It unfortunately dampens a bit of the game’s realism when they don’t perform anything like real life, especially with drive stuns somehow achieving neuromuscular incapacitation which is a bit of a strange mechanic. I know highly unlikely, but if you guys have spare time it’d be worth revamping the taser’s realism a bit.

CQB Communication: Sorry folks I’m not a big gamer, I don’t know if other SWAT style games utilized non-verbal communication in CQB settings and that’s something you guys have previously tried, but with the way this game is trending I would strongly suggest looking into this. Even adding things as simple as a barrel wave, or an “emote wheel” altogether to perform hand signals, would greatly assist the folks in the game that are looking for realistic operations, as well as the players getting shot because their AI teammates wanted to shout something instead of using their hands.

That’s all for now! Thanks fellas.

[dim heart]

Hello TEAM Void, thanks for the great game.

I have a question. I saw that you can wear balaclavas in multiplayer. Would it be possible to do that in Commander mode?

Have a nice Sunday! Keep up the great work. Great game.

[severe rivet]

So aside from the Hard mode in general just straight needing some sort of revision, something that I think should be addressed is Suspects shooting at close range. Similar to how we cannot fire our arms at a suspect right in front of us, they shouldn't be able to do the same. Besides being shot with the 50 cal, hit twice with the shield and still not surrendering, her shooting like this just shouldn't be possible. She should create some distance.

[dim heart]

If you don't mind me asking, would it be possible to integrate a lamp into the PEQ 15 IR LASER? See video. Please don't be rude. Regards.

[honest hawk]

I would like to re-address the idea of issuing squad commands within team view cam.

There are many situations where splitting off into two groups is just logical to me. 24 bits per second (or whaetever its called) for example, imagine if one team would start at the outside top, clear that room, then clear top of outsside, another bottom section and move up, clearing the middle, then the team go down the outside stairs while other team breach server room from both ends, finally meeting together for the final assault.

Just an example, it would greatly add to the number of tactical options available based on given situation.

[midnight river]

The "free lean" mechanic has changed after the patch 3. I don't know if the change was intentional or accidental.

Free lean in its current state is not smooth and jitters when trying to use it. It worked fine before. Y'all recently fixed the issue where free lean sometimes didn't work at all. Was it intentional to make free lean not a smooth animation or was it an accident?

Free lean is a very important mechanic for peaking tough angles and needed for the hard difficulty. In it's current state it's not effective at all. It's become unpredictable due to the jitter when letting go of your key bind.

Can someone on the dev team explain to me the change of free lean or if the change was intended?

(I put this in feedback because im confused and want to discuss the free lean mechanic)

[rancid tide]

any clues on what the next few maps will be? i hope we get missions that are similar to Swat 4, the serial killer one was too good

[burnt hamlet]

Will Gyroscopic aim come to steam deck soon because I would love to use the gyro without the game freaking out that im using steam
Input and it can’t tell if im on controller or M&K

[deft epoch]

make iot possible to remove iron sights

also add a map with many people with guns

[deft epoch]

add a map full of terrorists

[idle pasture]

Imagine a ready or not detective spin off. Where you can play a co op campaign with a parter to solve all the cases for the raids you do as the Swat teams in Ready or Not. W or L idea?

[wheat wyvern]

I was wondering since Halloween is coming if it’s possible that we could get a horror themed map. Something like a haunted house to find hostages and take down slashers, allowed with a few jump scares. I don’t know if anyone has mentioned it before but it would be a nice addition to the game.

[merry cave]

the artists did an awesome job and the developers implemented great mechanics here and there however visibility check developer should get fired, enemy bots are just casually shooting through the ceiling above me or through thick walls from miles away
teammate bots on the other hand never listen to "secure and search" or "search area" command as they used to a year ago,
they're easily getting stuck at "move, bang and clear" state in random places and in the result i just die in a 1vs3 fight around the corner whilst all teammates have been starring at the door for 2 minutes

[safe hamlet]

It would of be awesome if they change the ncp for a better realistic models they are fine but they can be better

[mossy wedge]

Do NPC's trip metal detectors or no?

[polar isle]

Add some missions where we need to work as a sniper. We can only take a sniper rifle at those specific maps (like towers with much hostages & armored people). You can also give informations to your NPC-Team if you see something Dangerous (camping terrorists or something). If your scope reflects to the sun, may the terrorists will see you and start shooting at you

Add winter maps with matching clothes, gear & gunskin. If your skin is not matching to your Environment, people will see you & may shoot/run

[vast pollen]

One way doors, Doors can swing open both ways currently in game but If they were more realistic and only opened one way it would look better (as most doors hinges clip when going a certain way since they are modeled to only open one way) and it also could bring more to breaching and cqb.

[elfin isle]

Small feedback for the Missions UI. I'd like to be able too see the grade for the missions based on what difficulty is currently selected. Game currently hides my Standard difficulty grade, and displays my HARD grade, for the ones I completed.

[short ledge]

This AI on Hardmode is a joke. I can show you plenty of clips like that. Wallbangs, Instant kills of Brain-AFK Officers in a Doorway, Suspects just Suiciding to deny you from S-Rank Mission.. its a joke. Rework this or the game is unplayable. This Wallhack, Aimbot AI is far away from a good immersive game expierence

[stray ivy]

As a history buff and real SWAT member, I’d love to see Void Interactive add both the ORIGINAL Colt M4A1 and M16A2 to the SWAT ‘99 gear set. These rifles were iconic in late-1990s tactical operations, and including them would greatly enhance the authenticity and historical accuracy of the game. They’d provide players with realistic, era-appropriate options that reflect the true gear used by SWAT teams of that time.

[chrome minnow]

I agree that it will definitely look cool in the game also a M16a4 wouldn't waste

[safe hamlet]

uk servers

[dim heart]

I want to thank VOID for the MEGA-AWESOME READY OR NOT. You're doing a MEGA-GREAT WORK. KEEP IT UP. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE GREAT GAME.

I have a question. Would it be possible to make the characters look more realistic? Hair, skin, clothing?

[torpid swallow]

the game has no servers, the connection is p2p

[glass rune]

It would be pretty nice if we had a few smaller maps released as a side dlc/free addon, instead of complex maps that generally don't happen often, what if those calls were routed towards suburban houses/ apartments, these could be pretty simple but let us see what the swat actually answers to 90% of the time, single/double suspect maps with hostages etc

[dim heart]

I wish the VOID team a great weekend and would like to thank you very much for the great game. I also have two questions I'd like to ask, if you don't mind.

1. Is it normal for enemies to be able to fire continuously?

2. Is there a chance to add a 5th weapon slot so you can use a flashlight and laser simultaneously? I'd like to say again, it's a fantastic game. I'm already looking forward to new content, if any are planned.

[dim heart]

A question: In the game READY Or Not, there are many mirrors. Would it be possible to program them graphically so that you can see yourself?

Or is that too complicated?

I think it would be cool if you could use the mirrors to see yourself.

I saw videos in Early Access that show you could see yourself in the mirror. Would that be possible again?

[cosmic raptor]

Nope https://www.reddit.com/r/ReadyOrNotGame/comments/z7d0ea/comment/j44zq9c/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

[dim heart]

okay i understand sorry for the question

[vast pollen]

fuckass ue5 lol

[steep radish]

It might be just a little bit more realistic if there weren't bulletproof flowerpots and soccer balls. Maybe

When you get wounded, instead of the same animation every time, it might be cool to apply a tourniquet to extremity injuries or pack gauze, or something similar.

[celest raven]

Greatest feedback I have is still hand to hand techniques, AI squad members left a guy disarmed and when I came through a doorway the mf just punched me with massive disrespect, I should be able to feed him some dirt. The same goes for other situations where individuals are stunned and I close the distance only to have no options to forcefully restrain them so they shoot me.

[dim heart]

Hello, good evening, TEAM VOID

A question from a friend and me: Is it possible to make characters look more realistic and detailed with the existing engine? For example, hair, skin, clothing, eye expressions, etc.?

I hope I'm in the right channel?

Or should I post this in the technical support channel?

P.S.: I would appreciate an answer. Have a nice evening.

[wooden tartan]

I think the VOID team should make a map where you raid a barber shop repeatedly being flagged for money laundering in the backtooms or having an illegal lab in the backrooms if you know what i mean

[stray ivy]

What Void NEEDS to do is an SCP-Type of raid where you’re clearing out cryptids/mysteries

[dim heart]

Good morning, me and a few friends. I was wondering if there's a possibility of a character selection? Between male and female.

My friends and I would think it would be cool if we could choose our game character (gender).

Regards.

P.S.: You're doing a great job.

[cerulean zealot]

Hello, goodmorning / evening / night VOID

I'd like to question the current ROE For missions involving terrorists, IE, Relapse/Neon tomb, i feel like it should be shoot to kill instead of arresting for S rank, it feels kinda odd letting terrorist who slaughtered dozens of innocent people live.

Best Regards! Love the game!

[wraith osprey]

-an actual patrol officer mode with no mods and a bodycam mode with no mods

[north badge]

-the ability to at least move a bit quicker or sprint.

[cosmic raptor]

Low-ready is a thing, 20% more movement speed

[cerulean zealot]

We need balaclavas back in singleplayer as its own customization section so we can have glasses and balaclavas

[simple spade]

Hello,
I wanted to give some feedback on reloading guns (in this case the shotguns) and prioritizing actions.
I was playing a mission and got in a gunfight. I was shot and started bleeding out. At the same time I back away and started reloading. I was pressing 'F' to stop the bleeding, but the reload was being prioritized so instead of 'stop bleeding' my officer kept reloading the shotgun which made me fall over dead from bleedout. Would this be something that could be fixed on my end or is it a script action priority thing.

[sly pasture]

Please address the censorship. I dont think its right to censor a game that has a certain type of audience

There should be a toggle for the censorship. The game is rated as +18 in most countries. Why is there censorship for a +18 product out of all places? We should have the choice, as adults, to choose what we want and don't want to see. There is no excuse when many other games have done this. Games like GTA also have cruel visuals, yet there was no problem for bringing that game to console. So why is it for RoN? And why should it impact the PC players in the first place?

Also, revert the graphical downgrades. If you are worried about file size, you can make use of Steam's DLC feature to toggle on/off textures/4k packs, like many other games have done to allow customization in the hands of the player.

The SWAT AI seems to get more buggy as updates get released. Ignoring orders, ignoring suspects entirely and simply not picking up evidence at random.

I think this is the criticism of a lot of players like me and fixing these ‘issues’ would clear 90% of the complaints

[radiant sable]

is there going to be more maps anytime soon?

[torpid swallow]

in the next dlc, so 2026

[violet arch]

I just want to give the idea of extra lives in the game just in case you ever caught of guard even in easy mode

And I think there should be another revolver in the game Like the Smith and Weston R8

And the ability to fix your broken or injured body parts

And how dare you not be able to use an Uzi 😢

[violet arch]

Also, would be nice if you can get extra ammo from your team mates or AI team mates if you run out

[violet arch]

Also, I think the new version of the browning higher power in 40 Smith and Weston would be nice there’s too many 9 mm pistols. What about a pistol in power in between the 45s and the nine?

[crisp agate]

Pretty fun game overall, but the bots could be a little smarter about not getting shot for no reason and I wish some of the mods were incorporated into the game officially.

The left handed throw - shorter, quicker and great for getting deployables into the room right before a clear. Add it to the game with a separate key binding to let us choose long or short throws for the situation.

Additional grenades - 9banger, frags, and other modded throwables would be a great addition to the game.

Shotgun reloads - We're playing SWAT right? Special Weapons and Tactics, but they reload shotguns like farmer grandmother. There are plenty of viable ways to tactically reload a shotgun in the time it takes to hand load 3-4 individual shells. Plenty of competition shooters perform quad loads, and I'm sure that SWAT would practice this as well if they are going to run shotguns.

Rules of Engagement - Depending on difficulty the game has laxed or strict rules of engagement, however, a third mode with more enemies that are more aggressive and no rules of engagement would be amazing. Maybe the bad guys got too wild or started offing hostages and the command said "weapons free" on the way to the call.

Clean up crew - I can understand securing the big evidence, shipments, explosives, lab equipment, but why do we have to pick up every gun for a full score? SWATs job is to go in to save hostages and stop any threats in the area; not to clean up, bag evidence and do tasks that would wait till the situation has been resolved and it becomes safe for forensics, corners and regular police to enter the scene.

Non-lethal score penalties - Why do items like pepper spray and tasers give score penalties when used on civilians who don't comply after a shout (order)? If I shout and they refuse to get down and be detained, try to run away or reach for something (usually a phone) then tasers and pepper spray is certainly warranted. That shouldn't affect a player's score.

Finally this biggest gripe I have is the enemy bots ability to always know where you are and be able to hit you through the smallest gap possible (The post office map being the worst offender). They start firing and you can't even see or find them but they can destroy you if you don't move away fast enough. It's unrealistic for them to have perfect aim, eyesight and laser accurate weapons with no recoil or spray.

[violet arch]

Another thing I think they should have is when one of the AI swat members see someone but you can’t see them or they don’t point out where the hell they are. It should pop up on the screen outline that shines through objects. Or an indicator on the screen shows the direction it’s coming from. Especially noise. Because of your deaf, you can read the subtitles, but you cannot use the hearing to figure out the direction it’s coming from.

[violet arch]

And you’ve got to let us use some of those World War II weapons that are in some of the missions I know it’s meant to be accurate, but it is just a video game and aren’t some SWAT officers allowed to choose their own weapons anyway

[untold ridge]

Subject: [Feedback] High Latency in Asia & Request for Asian Servers / P2P Option

Hi Void team and everyone,

I'm a player from Asia. Since the move to the new server-based matchmaking, the co-op experience for me and my friends has become almost unplayable due to high latency.

The current server list has no Asian region. Connecting to "Southeast Asia" or "Oceania" gives us very high ping, causing lag and rubberbanding.

The old P2P connection, while not perfect, was often more stable for players within the same region like Asia.

Could the team please:

1. Consider adding Asian servers?
2. Or, bring back the P2P option for when we just want to play with nearby friends?

Many players in our region are facing the same issue. We love this game and just want to enjoy it smoothly. Thanks for listening!

[torpid swallow]

the game still uses p2p

if you want to check for yourself that p2p is still being used go into a game click shift + tab and in the top right it will say where its connecting

[proper harness]

Some suggestions. It would appear the message is too large haha

[rancid cedar]

Suggestion for new weaponry: CZ BREN 2 in 7.62x39
Since we only have 1 gun that's in 7.62x39, I think it's fair to add a little more firearms in the same caliber
IRL it is adopted by French GIGN, so having it in the game wouldn't be entirely out of place, while at the same time not making it feels like it's just another re-skin AK

[earnest path]

I believe we need a mechanism to push off suspects when they're stabbing us with knives, quite annoying whenever this happened, cuz we can barely do anything

[willow sapphire]

I would love to have a stadium map, like a football one or something.

[sly pasture]

TL;DR This is what we want:

• Add a censorship toggle for player choice (18+ content)
• Restore original graphics or offer optional 4K/texture packs via Steam DLC
• Fix AI stop freezing, ignoring enemies, or getting stuck in doorframes.
• Optimize performance to reduce frame drops and stuttering.
• Fix gas grenades so they work reliably.
• Release updates more frequently to address bug and QoL improvements.
• Add new content more often such as missions, weapons, maps, or story expansions to keep the game fresh.
• Add Steam Workshop support for mods, maps, and community content.
• Recommit to the game’s independent, community-driven vision.

[formal vector]

Make the Red dots more realistic.

We shouldn't see the outline of the scope when we zoom in!

[grizzled lily]

SWAT AI

Being able to use a deployable like on SWAT 4

I know we already have the "use" order (i think it's on 5) to tell bots to throw or use items. it's pretty sloppy tho
It would be awesome that we have the same with doors. How exactly ? If the AI is stacked up in a door (or anything that acts as a door) it would be awesome if i could tell the bots to just throw a flash but don't go in.

Same with breaching. Making the door explode with C2 + Flash but they won't go in.
So i can just use them for the extra equipment and I can clear the room 😄

It will be simmilar to the leader lead option. They just open the door and wait me to use the items and then they push. But they do the opening and gadget and i clear it on my own 😄 (and they just stay hugging the door frame)

[vast pollen]

Shotgun Traps, I beg of you.

[fiery pelican]

New adjustment in mission objectives

• Now missions where you are asked to arrest an important character will let you choose between arresting them alive or neutralizing them without losing the objective. (example: Arresting him alive gives the player 500 mission points, but neutralizing him only 250)

This change not only benefits the player but they can now play without the fear of accidentally deleting the character and lose a mission objective for points at the end of the game. This is because for those who play Lethal on hard difficulty, because it is common for the enemy that needs to be captured to start shooting at the player and the player ends up killing him in reaction.

[tall flare]

only feedback I can give is that hard mode is in desperate need for either a revamp or readjustment cause it's literally impossible to play
constant sniping from the enemy AI, they are inhumanly fast in their response and you cant even react and you're dead, they do insane damage regardless if you're on the heaviest armor with steel its possible to get killed instantly, the swat AI is very shotty and also dies very fast, I don't understand the nerf in their aim and damage since the enemies already tough as nails.
I understand wanting the hard mode to be, y'know, hard
but there are ways to do it without necessarily making it impossible for the player, It's insane that sometimes you just got to rely on getting RNG for a mission to barely complete it, heck the game already does handle difficulty pretty well in the standard gamemode and Ironman challenge, sure it's difficult but never impossible, hard mode on the other hand? it's barely even passable.
Just please re-work this mode properly so it can actually be challenging while still being fair to the player and fun to master.

Also please add the option to add balaclavas in singleplayer and customize them and option for gasmasks with dark tinted lenses it'd be nice to have those options for more customization.

[solemn viper]

The developers should release an update that allows you to lower the volume of NPC voices so that teammates can be heard better in VOIP chat.

[unique latch]

We need an option to use steamworks insted of EOS for multiplayer because EOS doesn't always work and has many issues im constantly getting disconnected from the game and my friends also this wasn't happening before EOS was implemented thats why we need option to be able to use steamworks insted of EOS

[slate tapir]

• TASER
  We need it so the developers make it so when an npc gets tased, with light clothing or somewhere bare skin like face of arm or leg or no vests to make them FALL and lock up like a real taser would do to a person and they would lie there for like 7 seconds while we can cuff them, i think this would massively improve realism and safety to RON players, while making the taser do that., cause as of right now the taser makes them do a little shimmy animation then they just magicly switch to hands up or just dont do anything and just stand there electrocuted, please DEVS make this happen i beg you, thousands of people want it and adore a good taser animation so please check this out and maybe decide to put it on your to dev list or smt xD,

NEW GAME MODE: COMMANDER + MULTIPLAYER

I have an idea about a new game mode that combines Commander mode and multiplayer. From briefing (in a couple of missions) we can read that LSPD SWAT uses 2(or more) teams on missions (Relapse for example). Player one is the commander of team Alpha, second player is commander of team Bravo on big maps like Hide and seek, Relapse, Mirage at Sea, Sins of the Father, Buy cheap, Buy twice etc. Teams can start from any entry points: at the same or different ones

[subtle island]

• NEW WEAPON

ACC HONEY BADGER 🦡

Role: Suppressed compact carbine for stealth and CQB with extended effective range vs. SMGs.

Platform / chambering: .300 Blackout, integrally suppressed upper (character-defining).

Intended use-cases:
• Quiet entry and room clearing where stealth matters.
• Mid-range engagements where an SMG can’t reach reliably.
• Specialist loadouts (undercover, hostage rescue, VIP protection, stealth missions).

[hexed adder]

will the game ever get an OPEN mic option plz i got enough keys for one hand to deal with thanks !

[frosty siren]

Reload cancelling! Too many a time have I been caught with my pants down because I can’t switch weapons mid-reload! Nothing special, just pause the reload mid way through, and continue the animation when the weapon is re-equipped! It’s so easy that even COD does it!

[maiden basalt]

For console: Add sprinting like in Arma and add more LEO outfits like sheriff office and ICE, ATF, US Marshals, DEA, FBI, US Customs and border protection (CBP), most of these outfits would fit the narco maps and leave room for more maps and scenarios like warehouses filled with guns and drugs and humans also country homes with big land and fields to grow and make drugs and alcohol like a moonshine operation, money laundering businesses, Meth labs, border missions like a truck stop or a check point or pay toll, executing warrants on gangs and wanted bosses not just cartel bosses but like Italian mafia bosses or Russian mob or Irish or low level street gangsters, airport map narcotics smuggling or terrorist act, stolen goods scenario like jewelry, furniture, cars/car parts or finding illegals wanted for things like terrorism or narcotics smuggling, organ harvesting, add money laundering businesses and more Los Angeles based scenarios with the gangs and prison gangs, could add prison map/scenario and add more story/background to criminals/suspects like having warrants out of multiple states for murder or wanted for not returning the suspects child to the primary caretaker/parent which would be kidnapping or a Suspect who lost his job and has his family hostage or DOA, wanted for questioning so don’t kill him type of missions. More guns and add old police outfits and weapons like more revolvers bolt action rifles also add different hats like cowboys hat and cowboy boots and regular work hats add more officers like different races like in California and Texas they have a lot of Hispanic police officers also add undercover outfits like chains and jerseys to look more street thug or like vice cops

[pearl storm]

Make it so that when you shoot someone and they die they don't scream. If they are dead I don't want to hear them screaming.

[lofty wigeon]

Make replay mode available for console pleasee

[median raptor]

ranting over here after spending almost 20 hours on an ironman campaign and got my save file deleted. died because a suspect rushed yolo-ed me pointblank range mag dumping me non stop, but since the suspect was directly infront of me, it automatically put my character into low ready position. unable to react, my friendly AI was directly stacked behind me single file so they could not shoot because of friendly fire. 20 hours of progress wasted because something wasnt within my control, felt cheated and angry. T_T just dropping feedback here, hope the devs read this and at least allow to have some form of defense in extreme close quarters combat. i know hand to hand combat its rare, but that shit happened to me.

[subtle island]

These ai teammates need to be completely reworked or at the VERY least give us an option to disable them the amount of times they get in the way and block you or watch you get shot at and do jack shit and follow WAY to close without falling back when we’re getting blasted at is astronomical please for the love of god fix the fucking AI

Also just to add to that some ducktape would be nice to slap on the mouths of detained people because they speak way to much

[tight lagoon]

More missions we need more missions
We need more missions because a lot of the times I just played the game and it no offense, but it gets boring after a while with no new missions so could you please add more missions?

[wooden briar]

Is there gonna be Kuna SMG in the game?

[proven ocean]

its just a little detail but the G36C should have a clear magazine, so the ammo check animation should probably just be him looking at the magazine, similar to insurgency sandstorm or the P90.

but the toss animation is really cool i'll admit that

[smoky lodge]

i found somthing which has completely destroyed my immersion

the glock 19s 15 round mag has a 17 round count indicator

[copper patrol]

Please PLEAse add a suppo9rt for vr

[uneven yew]

add a multi cam variant and multi cam black variant to the lspd combat shirt

[zinc olive]

Can we please get an option for dialogue volume control ?

[bitter kayak]

These details are a joke guys

who would let people in cell with this stuff 😄 ? A freaking hammer? the other guy..., jesus,

[verbal current]

Where their ammo at?

[turbid breach]

BAGGIER JEANS

[lyric temple]

Add the ksg it’d be way too over powered 🤣

[fringe osprey]

A very simple but effective change would be adding the "AIMPRO" sight as an option for the MK18 rifle.

An iconic carbine, the MK18 Mod 0 is represented with near 100% accuracy in game (SOPMOD stock, LMT rear sight, KAC RIS rail, etc.) The only part missing is the correct optic. The MK18 Mod 0 was generally issued with the Aimpoint CompM2. While the CompM2 is not currently available in game, the Aimpoint PRO (aka AIMPRO) is. The Aimpoint PRO is a 30mm red dot that is nearly identical to the CompM2 and was commonly issued to law enforcement during the MK18 Mod 0's (and CompM2's) peak service.

The AIMPRO optic is only available in game for certain weapons, generally firearms that saw peak use during the 90s and early 2000's (M1A, MP5, etc.) With the MK18 Mod 0's service history being consistent with this time period, and a 30mm Aimpoint red dot being the standard issue optic for said rifle, the AIMPRO should be available for the Mk18 in game.

[delicate herald]

add a way to cut power in a building, it would be cool to enter a building js with nvg so for the enemies is harder to see you

[spice ice]

Also, I’d suggest keeping the LMT rear sight/cut down A4 carrying handle for the authenticity whenever equipping optics.

[wraith osprey]

In Elephant add a optional lockdown alarm that plays, with a flashing strobe light and stuff and just in general home/business alarm systems, if we break down a door in a house add like a “Front door, motion sensor” sound effect idk it just makes the whole game more immersive

[icy thicket]

Void stated back in 2021 they will not be adding the ability to cut power due to the game using baked lighting.

I would love to see this return. One of the older builds had destructible lights in Twisted Nerve and it was awesome seeing the lights go out when breaching. If Call of Duty can have toggleable lights I think this game should be able to accomplish it as well

[sinful patrol]

Bring back the early access game modes only to quick play

[hardy fern]

For Elephant and other active shooter maps, add patrol officers that roam the map, are friendly, wont surrender, and use semi-auto rifles, shotguns, and pistols.

[steady plume]

My 1st time seeing this; we should see this scenario more often at least 20% more tendency

[somber hatch]

[Weapons]

CS-Gas

It has been forever and the gas still isn't fixed. Doing some solo-testing i found out the AI doesn't react to the gas at all, even when firing cylinders and the AI standing in the cloud. They only respond to verbal commands. Can you please fix this? An essential part of the kit is essentially rendered useless for house clearing.

[jovial shale]

This is not a discussion channel. Read and follow the channel description.

[obsidian gate]

Please make the "no crossplay" option also disable Epic Store crossplay, their servers suck and are actively disrupting my user experience

[robust stirrup]

It be nice if they were to stop the game from going on after your Kia bc I just lost 2 officers because the game kept going after I was dead in commander mode

[north badge]

It would be nice to see your characters armor and legs when you look down. Cause when you are looking down there's nothing, no sign of armor or what you customised for your character. Very minor I know but that's personally what I would like to see or at least a mirror in the lobby so you can see what setup of armor or wear you have going in real time while moving around.

[zinc olive]

Can we please get the option to turn down Dialogue, its attached to SFX so turning that down turns down everything but music.

[potent flicker]

Can we get custom difficulty, allowing you to set the reaction time of the AI, number of enemies, tactics used, and weapon levels, would be a better alternative for those who want to have fun and for those who want realism or both.

[brittle slate]

Can we get the 2011 45 ACP double stack pistol? I love using the 1911 and the M45 for every mission because of the great impact it has on a suspect but the magazine is only a single stack with 7-8 rounds in it which isn’t very helpful to me so if we could get a double stack 1911/2011 that would be wonderful

[pliant oyster]

Can we get more realistic missions? Like I know theres a story here but can we at least get like a Murderer hold up at a house instead of raiding a Hospital because knockoff Al-Qaeda is threatening to blow it up?

[finite dune]

We need new maps, grounded apartment maps, and shierff style uniform with tazee and cuffs displayed on dutybelt and vest.

[lament lake]

Can we get multi attachments and some new maps maybe something along the line of a snow/winter map or a Private Military Contractor HQ type map where we go against higher Armor opponents. Also would like some more detailed gear and more weapons and if its a chance we would be able to use a small drone to clear out house/rooms. ( :

[safe hamlet]

Not trying to be controversial but can we get another school map maybe with the hand holding up the school instead?

[jovial shale]

Let me remind everyone that this is not a discussion channel. Read the name of the channel, the channel description, and the pins. Posts not following channel rules will be deleted.

[dreamy marlin]

Would it be possible for a setting that makes it so the game remembers the weapon you last had out after you use something (like a grenade) because currently it just switches back to your primary every time

[stark jasper]

Good evening,I hope to ask for the developers for a mod support on console or a mapmaker so that the console version of the game won't be boring

[umbral sluice]

I wish the Walther P99 would be put back in the game. I remember it was on early release and it was my favorite sidearm to use.

[exotic pendant]

I wish they could add a server browsing UI for everyone. Playing with friends on other platforms would be much easier than praying while hopping from a lobby to another.

[restive hornet]

Do contest when players do own map and people vote for the best and the map with most of votes is added to game

[torpid adder]

Can we please get some sheriff marked clothing and gear? Maybe also a more realistic patrol look by adding hats?

[safe hamlet]

[AI Behavior]

Decrease the difficulty of greased palms.

I've been playing Ready or Not for like 52 hours (which I know is not much), but like almost all of that time has been spent on one map. Greased Palms.

I'm trying to get the S rank on every mission on standard difficulty and no matter what strategies I try as soon as I enter the warehouse, I die and it's over. I almost never even know who is shooting me and from where because there are so many small openings in the warehouse and the suspect AI is too powerful and it's almost impossible to complete.

My entire experience with Ready or Not has been:

• Starting the mission on Greased Palms
• Dying thanks to some suspect on the other half of the warehouse less than half a second after I entered.
• Restarting the mission
• Dying thanks to some suspect on the other half of the warehouse less than half a second after I entered.
• Rage quitting and trying again next month.

I'm simply just not able to complete the mission because the suspect's have military level aim while the swat AI is no help at all.

I've had Ready or Not for almost 2 years now and I almost never play it simply because of how frustrating it is to spend half an hour dying & restarting the mission. Ready or Not was really fun for me and I absolutely loved it until I reached Greased Palms and getting the S rank became impossible. I've tried basically every strategy that exists, I've watched dozens of youtube videos on how to complete it, and nothing works. I always die and lose the S rank.

Please I beg you make the suspect AI's aim and vision distance worse, or please make the swat AI more useful. There was one time where the last suspect killed one of the swat AI's and I lost the S rank on literally the last suspect. Greased Palms has been genuinely making me suffer for years now as I have never been able to get the S rank on it. Every time I finally try the mission again after months of not playing I just die, and die and rage quit.

[sour inlet]

A prison map would be interesting.
Inmates are rioting and have both taken guards as hostage and barricaded themselves in certain areas of the prison. Forces you to use riot gear more extensively as there inmates who are not barricaded will be in the masses roaming the corridors (5+ Unarmed Inmates attempting to overwhelm you, able to make use of riot shields and stingers). There will be a handful of armed inmates like those who have seized the armoury. You will have to rescue staff, attempt to apprehend all inmates, and save the guards held hostage. Plus, the notable Suspects caught in the campaign could be present in the mission, plus if someone escapes it gives way for new missions.

[heady needle]

Can we make the squad actually smart? My squad on Sins of the father go into a room and don't clear it. I walk in and get lit up. My men are completely untouched. I also split up my team's to clear Guest rooms, and they get lit up and die. AI in this game is a joke.

[frosty token]

I’d really like the “lightly pull trigger to use canted aim” to be on Xbox please.
Your excuse was “PlayStation has responsive triggers” but this is a thing games have been doing on both consoles for years.
Consider perfect dark and it’s different zoom levels (if you want a shooter example). Or racing/driving games with different levels of acceleration.

Secondly, would like zoom scope with no attached irons/red dot.
So then it’s only scope or canted, instead of scope/red dot/canted.
currently it’s very clunky.

Also maybe an actual crouch? Or ability to look under beds/low doors properly?

Also better weapon customization and new sights.
The “realism” reason for not doing things has kind of gone away. Keep it grounded, but add some more freedom for customization.

And lastly, a 50cal desert eagle, please.

[serene latch]

please have AI teammates change their mag after majority of rounds are depleted
the amount of times they went empty in the middle of a breach and switched to their pistols is ridiculous

doesn't take a genius to know that you shouldn't clear rooms with 3 rounds in the mag

[rigid trellis]

I would like you to add the new glock g19 or 17 generation 6 weapon, I would be very happy if you would fulfill this request.

[bitter prism]

I would love if next update we get the M16A4 since it’s on the wall inside the armory in the police station but you can’t actually use it I personally think it would be an amazing weapon to add since it is used in police forces throughout the world and still used by the military a bit

[winter kite]

I would love to have to fight female suspects. This game is very realistic but SWAT and police have to deal with everything. I think it would add more realism to the game and maybe some controversy but i think it would be a huge step to making your game even more well know than it already is. I know no games that allow that so i think you should consider my feedback.

[hybrid gyro]

There most definitely should full size Glocks in 9mm, 10mm and .45 rather than only a compact G19 considering most officers carry G17's or G22's.

[brisk crystal]

For the love of god please tone down the difficulty for hard mode AI, they are literal cyborgs. This guys just killed both of us as if he were John Wick, it's ridiculous.

[dim heart]

VOID INTERACTIVE

You guys made a MEGA cool READY OR NOT game.

My question is, could you make the characters look even more realistic?

[glossy urchin]

he is wearing both a belt and suspenders please fix

[normal patio]

An official mod browser for all platforms would be super cool. Only approved mods would appear, but it would allow console users to play custom maps, have cool camera effects like a bodycam, and more guns. Think of how Farming Sim does it

[keen tulip]

more oufit like more color and custom

[drifting cargo]

The ability to look around like this with your weapon pointed straight would be really cool to have on console

[marble lichen]

the interaction hitbox size for the door trap tripwire is so infuriatingly small and difficult to reach on certain doors

most recent instance is on elephant where i died to a door trap because i discovered one, and tried to defuse it, but it wouldnt show me the defuse tripwire interaction because i was too far away, so i inch closer and closer slowly to try and see if it pops up. It never does, and i gently touch the door causing it to violently swing open blowing me sky high

[vital oar]

Improvements:

K9 Unit That You Can Choose To Raise As Puppies Or Get As Trained Adults (Each With Their Own Benefits And Have More Than One On The Team And Different Breeds) And Also Be Able To Have More Than One Dog In Certain Missions Just Like Real Life

Stop Making Alpha, Bravo, Charlie And Delta Stop Being "Stressed" Out As Much After Killing (It's Completely Unrealistic)

Add Drones

Make It So We Can Choose To Each Individual Member Of Red And Blue Teams Simultaneously Or As Many Cameras As We Want Simultaneously (i.e. An Ability To Have Single, Double, Triple And/Or Quadruple Cams Going On On Simultaneously)

Add Snipers

Stop "S Tier" Requirements To Not Kill Any Suspects (It's Unrealistic As Hell)

Stop Duplicate Copy/Paste Civilians, Suspects And Teammates

Add More Teammates (It's Unrealistic As Fuck To Only Have 5 SWAT Members On Some Of These Missions (If Not All Of Them)

Make Us Able To Carry Both Assault Rifles AND SMG's/Shotguns As Secondaries Instead Of Only Pistols

Make Us (And Teammates) Be Able To Run Fast, Slide, Jump, Dive, Etc Like In Call Of Duty (SWAT Members Run And Do All Of Those Other Things All The Time)

Make An Ability To Point At A Direction And How Far For Us To Command Our Teammates To Deploy Grenades, etc

Make Teammates Stop Being So Dumb (One Example Of Many: When I Queue Them To Move And Clear With Grenade Launchers And While They Are Waiting And Somebody Busts Through The Door They Are Facing Waiting To Clear And They Can't Even Defend Themselves Despite Aiming At The Door)

Add Stun Grenades And Smoke Grenades

Make Grenade Effects Last Longer, Especially Gas Because It Is Unrealistic As Fuck And They Shouldn't Be Able To Fight Back Like Nothing Happened (Even On Hard)

Make Ability To Command Teammates To Wait A Certain Amount Of Time After Deploying Grenades To Enter For It To Take Effect (Especially Gas Because They Move Way Too Fast And Wind Up Getting Badly Hurt And/Or Killed Because They Go In Immediately After They Throw It And It Doesn't Have Time To Take Effect And The Suspects Don't Start Coughing Until Like 10 Seconds Later)

Better Utilization Of Blueprint Map (I Don't Really See The Purpose In Drawing Lines In It If It Doesn't Do Anything)

Ironman Mode Being Harder, But Doesn't Wipe Out Your File If You Die

Make Teammates Respond MUCH Faster To Combat, Commands, Etc And Stop Being So Slow

Make Us (And Teammates Be Able To Carry Both Riot Shields And Launch Grenades At The Same Time

Give Us More More Load Out Slots For Grenades, Magazines, Etc

Give Is More Modern Equipment And Technology

AI Teammates Not Being Able To Solve Problems In Their Own Like If A Door Is Locked That They Have Been Commanded To Clear And They Can't Figure Out To Either Kick The Door Down Or Use Pick Lock Or Whatever Resources They Have Without Being Told To By Me

[dark cargo]

Preset sorting
I always find myself struggling to sort presets. So a little leature that lets us put prestes in a specific order would be much appreciated

[storm shard]

Nothing crazy. Just please for the love of God hurry up and add that multi rail attachment for weapons. I'm itching to start using it. Also add free look to console. We only have free lean but imo free look is so much more useful. Ill even take the option to free look instead of free lean in settings

[hushed nova]

ready or not should be realistic right ?
i like the 50 ae but its to weak compared to the real life one

i would make it like 5 bullets
higher recoil
middle-high armor pen
the jhp is ok
i think the 50 ae punches trough armor like nothing else

[signal heath]

Make a map where we are in helicopters and going in clearing terrorist building.

[median lichen]

can we add a toggle to talk button im tired of holding down v

[blazing osprey]

Add like camo balaclavas, and vests where you can customise the writing on the back, and add snipers

[ocean ember]

Add K-9 Units to Ready or Not

I’d love to suggest adding K-9 units to Ready or Not to increase realism, immersion, and tactical options.

K-9s are widely used by law enforcement for clearing buildings, suspect apprehension, and suspect detection, and they would fit perfectly with the game’s realistic SWAT gameplay.
K-9 deployment as an optional squad element

Voice warnings before deployment (e.g. “Sheriff’s Office! Make yourself known or a K-9 will be released!”)

Ability to send the K-9 into rooms or hallways to flush out suspects

Suspects may surrender when warned about K-9 deployment

Risk/reward balance (K-9 can be injured or incapacitated if used recklessly)

AI reactions changing based on K-9 presence (panic, surrender, aggression)

[dim heart]

Hello, I have a question. When I'm in police headquarters and press the middle mouse button, this horizontal bar appears (see image). Would it be possible to add this to the game so that it would provide a better grenade throw indicator?

My question is, would this be possible for in-game missions?

[reef yarrow]

Feed back for priority of Team AI to have all enemies secured and eliminated before stupid AI goes and picks up weapons or secure NPC while they are being shot at!?! This is very immersion breaking. There needs to be AI order of operations during hostile situations.

Can we also get the AI animations and movements more realistic like COD since you guys said before that you spend over a week recording new animations. The team animations have been broke and sloppy for a long time and since the last update seems worse. They need to be consistent as a whole element and also less robotic and more fluid when them move or stack or in position in a stack or moving. Why are all AI moving mainly backwards in a formation and no one but team lead as player helping with left and right and front focus for cover when moving as a team or with the player. This is so immersion breaking and I have seen smaller teams of game developers do this on other games successfully like Blood Brothers

[inner nexus]

could the sinuous trail mission be better optimized? thats the only mission where theres lag depepnding on where im facing in game

[daring hornet]

Would be nice if the optic bodies became transparent when ADS-ing, to simulate how it looks in real life when you use a red dot/holographic/low magnification optic with both eyes open like you're supposed to.

[dusk kettle]

please add balaclavas to offline commander and quick play

[willow trail]

Would be nice to have an airport missions and breach two or something planes and clear the airport.

[red narwhal]

Non-AK 7.62x39mm mini/cqb rifles please🙏

[viscid ice]

Rubber round pistols/smgs/rifles to expand our nonleathal options

[brazen walrus]

Would be nice to have ball cam as in like opening a door and dropping the ball and going on your tablet and moving it around and seeing suspects and civs Becuase a lot of swat teams In states use them also opening windows for flash bangs instead of shooting them

please add fast switch weapon from main to pistol even if u're checkin magazine/bullets in ure main gun

i was checkin bullets, and the suspect in front of me slowly opened door and killed me, cause i cant switch the weapon 🙁

[haughty root]

Can we have a starting weapon check animation for the ARN-180, or is there a irl reason for it to not have one?

[edgy compass]

Would it be possible to add headsets with helmets like the MICH and Kaiju SF Mk 3? They never had any to begin with and with this update adding in headsets/hat combos it would be nice to see something available for helmets

[misty crater]

it would be very nice if we could adjust the new zoomed scopes aiming reduction

[brazen tusk]

[End of Mission Results]

Speed up text

Adding the ability to click and speed up the results at the end of mission to get back into the next mission or replaying current mission after a failed attempt faster.

[undone oar]

[Gamepad]
Hold button to switch to canted sight or Hold button to cycle sights for controller
Right now, on controller, using scope such as the sdr or the atak-r, player have to press the button rapidly to cycle from full scope to integrate sight to canted signt, where as mouse and keyboard there is a dedicate button just to switch to canted sight, and a button to cycle between sight.

It would be cool if they were able to add more handguns and maybe customization to the magazine for like the Glock so you can carry a bigger mag maybe a drum on the 18c

[spice ice]

[Weapons & Equipment]

Revision and Overhaul to current arsenal to enhance realism, balance, and weapon/caliber variety

• ARWC should have its caliber changed from 5.56x45mm to .458 SOCOM (11.63x40mmRB) and magazine capacity changed from 30 to 10.

Reason: To give players a new, high-caliber firearm that can quickly if not almost instantly incapacitate suspects with a single torso shot similar to how the Mk.V handgun performs. Its real life counterpart also has a variant chambered in said caliber.

• F90 should be replaced with the AUG A3 M2 NATO (with bolt release) in .300 Blackout

Reason: The F90 was cancelled from being exported to the US in 2019 for “ethical reasons”. The AUG A3 M2 NATO will be a perfect model replacement for the F90 and it also has a version in .300 Blackout and will help diversify caliber options.

• Raider X P320 should be moved from the PDW class to the Handgun class, thus making it usable with shield. It should also come with a free +1 magazine by default. Its reload mechanism should also be reworked: only upon emergency reloading, the user will use the backup magazine to reload the firearm.

Reason: The Raider P320 was and is overshadowed by previously SMGs and now PDWs in terms of usability and with the addition of the G18C and the Mk V, it’s easily the worst choice for the loadout.

• M32A1 should swap place with the M320 as the Long Gadget. Players should be able to choose between the three grenade types: Flash/Gas/Sting for it and it should come with a fixed carrying capacity of 2+1 magazines. The M320 should get 3 grenades per +1 ammo in the customization section.

Reason: The M32A1 is the best non-lethal weapon in the game and as such should have some limitation and therefore the M320 should replace it in the primary slot.

[gleaming magnet]

I got issue on No Good Deed, I'm not sure if it's a bug or not. I'm doing mission, everything is going fine, when SOMEBODY shoots civilians. There is no hostage taking voice line or anything, no contant, just somebody shoots civvie somewhere on the map. so I can't really do anything

[void acorn]

The New maps especially no good deed lags on steam deck sub 30fps which hardly earns the "steamdeck verified" status

[waxen river]

[GAMEPLAY FEEDBACK] In the most recent update the age-old well known “free-lean while walking” bug was fixed and corrected back to its intentional function, although unintentional that single bug is what rooted my love along with many others love for the game. It not only allowed for the MOST responsive leaning experience EVER in gaming, but also allowed other lesser known mechanics such as allowing the player to “stand on their toes” and raise their camera by the same degree as if you were totally stationary during traditional “free-lean”. As a veteran player with most in-game milestones achieved, I truly believe this masterpiece of a game only saw more replay-ability and diversity in the experience from this unintentional error.
Lastly I want to give a possible simple solution without impeding any core game-code, in which ideally would be adding a simple “toggle” between to the two within the options menu. This single addition could allow the original intended Free-leaning system to remain unaffected and the Default.
For the love of God, and this franchise I must stress how much more love for the game my friends and I have developed solely due to this one bug. I created many connections and new friends through this fixed bug. Due to the multiple niche elements the bug had within itself (standing on toes, crouching extra few inches, etc.) it allowed for a more immersive experience in arguably ALREADY the MOST IMMERSIVE game-world created by developers to date. I have never wrote to a development team in my 20+ years of gaming to ask for a bug to be implemented back into the game, but I wholeheartedly hope that this is a testament for my love to this topic and Ready or Not as a whole.

[austere needle]

Please add in an option to add a keybind for each the laser and illuminator seperately or add the option to seperate the "Toggle Attachment" from the "Cycle Attachment"

Excuse me for asking, but would it be possible to make the graphics a bit more detailed? The mission in the amusement park is very blurry (characters).

1. Weapon Rework [2 weapon specifically]

• Ambidextrous Reload for SR-16 and GA416 [Animation Reworks]
  Both has Ambidextrous Bolt release and yet the game sticks to a generic left thumb press. [BRM5 with weaker engine can do it.]

• SR-16 first person and third person should do a C-Clamp reload with the URX 3.1 no handguard default. [pinky finger wrapped to the triangular C-lamp, ring finger and middle at the 3 oclock of urx 3.1 panel and index finger at 6 oclock, thumb at the top of 12 oclock rails.] because the third person SR-16 grip looks ridiculous when i tried it the that resulted to more strain.

2. Attachment Rework [Muzzle Device and Suppressor as Custom overhaul]
   [First Muzzle device options on barrel thread, second the suppressor based off Muzzle Device picked brand]
   Why? Because SR-16 is using a 7.62 QDC Flash Hider which is for SR-25 not SR-16, its QDC 5.56 3 Prong Flash Hider for QDC 5.56 Suppressor variants.

• Weapon Calibers based on their brand should be on their default Factory Muzzle Device. a SR-16 belongs to default QDC 5.56 3 Prong flash hider for QDC 5.56 Suppressors as example. [I find it embarrassing some gun games can do customization more properly but this game is tagged as realism for its price. So it better live up to its name, Its not easy but diligent work to improve realism of the game even if it will take long.]
• Full sized Suppressor and CQB suppressors [noticeable flash]

3. Sound rework
   The sound with suppressors are way too quiet few feet away for a teammate in different POV and replay test. but first person its loud correctly but sound design feels wrong.
   Supersonic crack differentiates from SBR and Mid length rifles with loud BOOM! that rips the air [far away POV it sounds like a fire cracker suppressed or unsuppressed]

4. Alternative mag vanilla.
   PMAG Gen3 window or solid. [without mod CTD per update]

• PMAG windowed with unique inspection ammo check.

Hopefully this does gets read for realism improvement.

[elder sundial]

WML are not aligned correctly. Also would be great if there was Manual gain. Inspect animations when you pull out the 2011 is a bit annoying, would be great it could be skipped during mid firefight by just aiming and not get murdered.

[hexed gull]

First of all, good job on Boiling Point, truly a work of art. I've been playing RoN since the start and this is by far the peak. You're all getting better and better at developing this game, it really shows.

I solo, pistol only no armor. My favorite way to play, larping as a beat cop. Adding the patrolman outfit was 10/10, thank you so much. There's just one request, can you make it so we can unequip our primaries? Literally all that's left for a proper cop playthrough.
Being able to pick up a suspects gun and use it would also be fire, but I know that's asking too much.

Also I miss the old pistol sway when you look around, that made it possible to shoot behind corners, back in the OG farm days, i might be the only one that enjoyed that gun handling. I've never seen such a thing before or since, it was so fun, and great once you master it. (( I know someone liked it, given the spiral staircase in the old farm, whoever that is, ❤️ ))

Oh and buff .45, im tired of only having to use .50 and .357 on hard, surely there's a better way.

[old palm]

Boiling Point is peak. Guns are awesome sauce, maps are challenging and refreshing, QoL is fantastic, atmosphere is fire.

Add the glock 22 or 23 🙏

[obtuse rock]

New update is realy good but my problem is the toggle canted sight on controller with a scope with zoom. It would be better if you could chose between toggle sight modes while ads with dp left or right.
I prefer to have the ability to turn on light/laser over changing fire mode or toggle canted sight.

[jovial zealot]

there should be an addon for the steam page to purchase the ultimate edition addon separately. Kind of a bummer i have to spend a full 70 dollars for the game to get the top tier after I have already purchased the game.

[uneven yew]

Please add multicam and multicam black to the lspd long sleeve combat shirt and combat pants and also synchronise the ranger green for it

[jovial shale]

Read and follow instructions in the pinned messages when posting in this channel. Off topic or unsuitable suggestions will be removed.

[versed dune]

It would be great if a future update and DLC added Sheriff uniforms (both short and long sleeves), bulletproof vests that say "Sheriff," and Sheriff shirts (both short and long sleeves).

[full dock]

Add voice commands to the campaign for the AI to pick up on. I.e you say a command in game chat such as “Stack up” while your facing the door and your AI team then stacks up on the door. This would be continued with a command such as a flash and breach, then the AI would throw a flash in and breach the room.

[silk hearth]

Loved the new DLC, a welcome new challenge for me, the ending however has once again left me with more questions than answers. though i suppose is not such a bad thing

[drowsy lance]

Hi VOID Int. First time here. I do love the update as it really challenging, but fun (besides a new America) that thing is a beast of "get gud scrub" status.

Anyway. I don't wanna say that this is a serious report, but while looking at my customization progress. It says "customisation progress" with an "s" in customization instead of a "z". Just dropping by.

[humble summit]

[Graphics/Engine]

Add lumen lighting for high end PCs and update the engine

Add a "Cinematic" preset that uses Lumen (with a toggle for software vs. hardware acceleration) and pair it with Virtual Shadow Maps. Currently, the baked-in shadow maps in certain areas, like the Los Suenos Police Station have very low resolution and visible aliasing. The same issue applies to the dynamic shadows (which I believe are cascaded), they look low-res and aliased even on max settings.

Before adding this, however, an engine upgrade to Unreal Engine 5.7 would be a neat idea. It brings a lot of bug fixes, new features, and performance improvements. The UE 5.3.2.0 version that Ready or Not currently uses was released on November 7, 2023, making it pretty outdated at this point.

For context, UE 5.5.4 brought a lot of RHI improvements, and 5.7 added FastGeo Streaming and GASP for motion matching animations. Implementing motion matching would be the coolest thing ever, especially if you could combine it with chain hit reactions just like the ones seen in the upcoming 0.4 update for Gray Zone Warfare.

[severe scroll]

Add a system where you can go to the basement or in a room in every map, turn off the power so the suspects can't see and then you can raid. Would be so good and people would love this update for every player. Also add that you need to drive there yourself for more realism.

[spice ice]

As a follow-up to this, I’d suggest windowed magazines to display the exact number of rounds remaining within the magazines upon inspection

[deft vale]

Weapon Design

AR-15 and G33 Magnifier

I would like to see the AR-15 and the G33 Magnifier for the EOTECH. Otherwise I love the game really worth the money if it was not for Officialinvictus I would not have found out about Ready or Not.

[spark rock]

Hello, as I play the new DLC, the concept it fantastic. However, the AI in the game absurd. As i play, the AI are acting faster than our human brains can even react. This level of AI brings me back two years ago wondering if the AI has ever been tweaked in the first place. Video for refrence.

[jade lion]

Would love to see some sort of mission where killing isn’t a bad thing. Especially with the way the city is going we need to start dropping some people

[azure kayak]

[Weapon damage]

Pistols just feel too weak?

Been loving the new handgun you added for the Boiling Point DLC update, and maybe it's just the 9mm ammo, but it just feels so week. Hit registration on targets is almost not perceptible, and those cult ladies in the "Carriers of the Vine" mission sometimes took around 6 shots from it to go down (and that's when I'm using JHP rounds, not AP rounds). Can all pistols be buffed a little? I often like to run missions with just my handgun for fun, but it rarely seems viable.

[mystic orbit]

Just my idea, as I have family members that are active/retired law enforcement with half of those being on a swat/tactical response team. We should get a single player mode and call it “callout” or something where you spawn in with your team and the objective is a house with a barricaded suspect that had some reason for swat to be called out and they have negotiations going on and the suspect may come out, you can 40mm tear gas through and they may come out, make entry and the suspect is inside they either surrender, shoot at you or they shot themselves earlier, it would be up to the player to decide what to do. Just a thought but it would make for a cool quick play option and show some of the real life side without being canon to the story. Maybe a search warrant one would be cool too, just a small random house that would have variations everytime you played where you could search for drugs, weapons or whatever the at the end have a photo of Judge and the crew standing behind a table with the seized items… also, k-9s. Thank you for coming to my ted talk

[echo kraken]

Base game on console struggles in the replayability factor, as opposed to pc due to their mods and community driven content. Console obviously does not have these and I do not expect console to get these any time soon however I believe the community and game would benefit greatly by map packs being released, the idea being that VOID would release map packs of community made maps every few months which you could enable or disable, akin to how Teardown do it. Obviously they wouldn’t be lore accurate but it would definitely be a boon to the players and player count

[normal salmon]

I suggest adding left handed mode not all swat use right handed

[crimson cedar]

I think button remapping should be added into the game. I was in an accident and i can only play one handed now, i play r6 which is somewhat similar to ron and they have button remapping so ive been able to have more freedom and fun to play it. Ron is great but id love to use more of the guns, with one hand it’s easier to use a shotgun compared to an ar which id have to reach across the control to aim then move and aim then to awkwardly use the shoot button. Ive seen that with the dlc the ai are on some seal team 6 timing and i atleast want to put up a fight, button remapping would help me and other disabled players

[uneven yew]

Add the m50 gas mask as it’s the gas mask LAPD swat uses and add black multicam and multicam for the LSPD combat shirt and pants

[frail yoke]

The AI should really be addressed. Their reaction time and pinpoint accuracy makes this game not fun.

[pearl kite]

I just watched a gamelogy video where it said that an idea that in the teams there is the possibility of having a medical role and of that style which would be great, the truth is to expand the gameplay more to make it more dynamic

[willow sapphire]

I think we need a new ak like a nato round or ak alpha. Also on a new america I've noticed that when you incap they get back up almost immediately. The breaching shotgun is a little janky now that the door doesn't completely break and it usually just stay standing up straight after you shoot all the hinges.

[upper bobcat]

A volume slider for toc would be greatly appreciated. Not only to those that are hearing impaired, but also to the general community as it would allow for more customized gameplay.

[lofty wigeon]

Add replay mode for console

[tall wraith]

Some more feedback on the P2011 and MK-V. The first "draw animation" needs to be contextual as if you dont do it at the start of the match you are stuck using it mid gunfight (ie press checking on the P2011, or chambering a round on the MK-V, with carrying without one in the chamber being unacceptable given the context).
As for the P2011 on top of the first draw animation being the press check, every time you draw it afterwards has this super awkward animation where there is excessive animation of flipping the safety down. This is in comparison to the M45A1 which is a very similar platform ergonomics wise and has significantly less of a delay to use

[steady sentinel]

Please please please add a “Aim mouse sensitivity” option. I want to have different sensitivities when looking around and aiming down sights. It feels weird playing at the same sensitivity for both. Controller has it, why not mouse and keyboard?

[twilit tundra]

In Gameplay Options, there is no quick command to Ram and Clear locked doors.
There's Pick, Kick Clear, C2 Clear, Shotgun Clear but no Ram Clear.

[earnest ore]

Reminder that this is not a discussion channel. Use it for genuine and structured feedback only.

[clever plank]

Not really much to say because of how awesome this update is, i feel the animations on the new firearms don’t match the usual flow of ron anims but i do love the toc radio in the new america mission, would definitely like to see the devs expand on a more in depth toc variety cus it feels wayyyy more alive that way

[cunning mulch]

Now to preface I don't know how difficult actually implementing something like this would be so this might be very naive.

The AI should have a revamped vision system where they start shooting at you only if they can see a set % of your body. This with a set detection distance would work wonders for the balancing of their reaction times. It's really apparent on the new pier map, where you suddenly start getting shot through all the ride handrails from across the entire park.

For example have their detection be set as follows: 50m/80% (from 50 meters if they see at least 80% of your body they'll start to react). This would make it so the enemy will still see you if there is nothing between you, while also giving you some breathing room where you're not getting sniped with a pistol like you're facing Chris Kyle when one pixel of your body is visible through 15 different props.

[barren plank]

I really like the shield mechanic for commander mode with your officers being able to use it, but for S rank I normally want to give their main gun more ammo instead of the pistol handgun that doesnt really do much compared to say like a taser, I wish officers could use tasers if their side arm had no ammo and they used it like that instead of just holding out their empty fire arm and walking in and getting killed.

[drifting cargo]

Wish we got magnified eotech in the new update

[twilit glade]

But you guys should make it where headshots are an instant fold like how it was in the Adam update. The really over the top animations for headshots are pretty ugly and immersion breaking. Most of the animations are ok and the ragdoll after the boiling point update looks a lot better but those headshot animations just gotta go. Maybe just start with a fold animation then instant ragdoll. And just always have it do that instead of cycling through ugly animations. Feedback would be so much better.

[scarlet rune]

more 👏 competent 👏 ia 👏 officers👏, i need them to play it safer and don't run to the enemies when they see him, just failed an s rank relapse because of that

[buoyant wing]

Hey Ready or Not devs & community 👋

With Firewall Ultra shutting down later this year, there's going to be a LOT of tactical VR players suddenly looking for a new home.

One of the biggest reasons Firewall worked so well wasn't just the gunplay — it was the round-based 4v4 attack/defend mode where teams took turns trying to secure or defend a single objective (like hacking a laptop).

It created insanely tense gameplay:
• Clear objectives
• Short, high-stakes rounds
• Team coordination actually mattered
• Attackers had to push smart
• Defenders had to hold angles and manage positioning

Ready or Not already has incredible tactical mechanics, communication, and realism — which honestly feels like the perfect foundation for a similar competitive mode.

A potential idea:

👉 4v4 Tactical Objective Mode (Round Based)
• One team defends a point (for example a laptop / evidence terminal / control device)
• One team attacks and must secure / interact with the objective
• After each round, teams swap roles
• First team to X round wins takes the match
• Limited respawns or no respawns to keep tension high
• Smaller, tighter maps or sections of existing maps

This kind of mode would:
✅ Bring in displaced Firewall players
✅ Add long-term competitive replayability
✅ Create strong squad identity and teamwork
✅ Open the door for leagues / ranked play / esports style formats

Right now there really isn't a true successor to Firewall's core mode in VR or tactical shooters — and Ready or Not could genuinely become that game.

Would love to hear thoughts from the devs and community 🙏

[unreal trench]

Gameplay enhancement

Laser/Light toggle switch

It's inconvenient having to cycle between the device features by holding a button, and having to cycle between 2 modes to get to either a flashlight or an IR laser.

It'd be easier to have the ability to set up keybinds targeting flashlight, (IR) laser.

[untold cargo]

Hey, RoN devs. Here's just something that would add more authenticity to the RoN teaser for 1.0. Add Judges balaclava.

[willow sapphire]

Mabye get a customizable shoot house?

[burnt parrot]

Hey idk if anyone’s talked about this on this channel here before but I’d pay $ for the Tan GPNVGs if they were a dlc add on I bet a other people would too

[golden trellis]

Maps I would love to see:
Stadium concert, movie theatre, comicon meetup, mega airbus/airport, shopping mall, prison riot (but no lethal weapons allowed), grocery store, nuclear facility (shot placement matters), casino, zoo/aquarium

[steady sentinel]

can we get better game optimization? i feel like the games performance is still kinda iffy even after a gpu upgrade and adjusting settings

[lime plume]

I think you should increase the amount of time before suspects can kill hostages on Mexican restaurant and mirage at sea map. I barely have time to clear the first 2 rooms before suspects start shooting hostages. And yes I’ve been quiet

[latent saddle]

Flashlights and lasers really need an option for separate keybinds. When I need to use white light rapidly to see the crackhead in a dark corner I'm not looking to hold the activation button to scroll twice because I was using a laser 30 seconds ago. You really can't compress the functions under one overengineered "all attachments" bind when they serve a different purpose and need to stay ready to use in a gunfight. Two real functions, two buttons needed. Thanks. It's nice to finally have them both.

[mild vector]

i would love to have the option to have two slots for tattoos (left and right arm) as most only have the one arm or are very small in design which are hard to see as the new tattoos are some of the best we have had so far this would also give a bit more personality to each officer/players

[cunning mulch]

Love the attachment toggle, however could we have an option to bind them separately as well as the "cycle" mode? Personally find it really annoying when my laser gets turned off randomly and im on the flashlight option and then i have to cycle them all through just to get my laser on and return back to the flashlight

[pearl widget]

Suggestion: the regular, full face seal gas masks and SOTR gas mask should be differentiated from each other. Similar to how the dual binocular NVGs are different from the quad binocular, ground panoramic NVGs.

There should also be an option to wear both the SOTR gasmask with Anti-Flash Goggles at the same time. You could further balance this by making it so the SOTR gas mask provides full respiratory protection, but, doesn't protect the eyes. As it doesn't create a full face seal like the other, regular gas mask options.

A lot of tactical goggles aren't completely sealed for the purpose of user comfort and to prevent fogging up so, by wearing both at once, you could gain both Flash and (respiratory) Gas protection. However, walking into CS gas, pepper ball smoke or pepper spray, will still affect your eyes. And of course, the gas mask would still block the usage of the Ballistic Mandible.

[stiff temple]

Feature Request: Left-Handed / Southpaw Option

I wanted to suggest a feature that could improve immersion and accessibility for a portion of the player base.

As a left-handed player, I’ve always noticed that Ready or Not (like most shooters) only supports right-handed weapon handling. While I’ve adapted over time, it would be amazing to have a “Left-Handed” or “Southpaw” toggle in the settings.

This could include:
• Mirrored weapon handling and animations (left-hand dominant)
• Option applied to both the player (Judge) and AI officers
• Toggle in gameplay or visual settings

Some games, like No Man’s Sky, already have a handedness setting like this, and it makes a big difference for immersion.

This wouldn’t affect gameplay balance, but it would allow left-handed players to feel more connected to their character and playstyle.

I know this would require animation work, but I wanted to suggest it in case it’s something worth considering in the future.

Would anyone else be interested in a feature like this?

[drifting wyvern]

QoL Feature requests for Commander Mode Ai Officers

---

just a headsup, i don't play Multiplayer, so no idea if you have AI there to fill slots and if it could be used there too in that case and i'm still kinda new and play max on "standard" difficulty to get used to the maps (and because i read hardcore is currently just AI aimbot dilemma as well)

1. officer role loadouts
   currently you can set a loadout to the active team slots (self, alpha...). personally what i'd like to see as well is being able to set default loadouts to roles, because in like the early missions where you have no / barely any armored suspects i tend to take officers with roles like pacifier, intimidator etc. and outfit them with non-lethal gear.

later on i change more to roles like armorer, paramedic, SBAGS or veteran which more often than not also carry lethal equipment instead (sometimes with non-lethal sidearm).

with role loadouts i could just switch between mission and teammates on the spot via table / tablet and they'd already have the gear i want for them without the need to go over to the locker and manually adjust it again

Edit: in a working way maybe have a "default" dropdown setting in the team related loadout menu (self, alpha etc.) which means that it uses the role-related setting and if you choose to change the loadout for e.g. alpha to a different one you overrule that default setting (e.g. to try out something new for a specific mission)

2. instead of firing officers, sending them back in the pool (reserve) / have an option to reroll the pool of recruits?

i find it a little weird to completely fire an officer and have if affect morale of the other members if he has a trait i don't like (e.g. the default guys). technically the guy didn't do anything wrong but i'm just looking for someone else (or when i just want to see which roles are available in total regarding rerolling the pool) so he could serve a different fictional unit instead.

currently the only way i see to "naturally" let them go without firing is failing some missions to increase stress enough to have them go to therapy and at some point leave on their own, but that feels somewhat wrong too (and takes time).

all roles probably have their use depending on playstyle, but e.g. something like "kicker" is pretty much never used by me (except on accident) because i use the mirrorgun to spot for traps and if i open the door and know a suspect is there i can as well open the door and have the weapon already drawn to react (no matter if lethal or non-lethal)

[frosty token]

I’m liking the update. Some much needed fixes. I’m on Xbox.
Few notes:
-texture issue doesn’t seem to be fixed. Palm trees and such still appear as a bunch of weird untextured polygons. I know this and the lighting was specifically addressed recently, so I’m pointing it out.
-can we please get the canted system on Xbox, that PlayStation supposedly has? Where “half pulling” the left trigger will bring the weapon to canted point shooting, a full pull of the trigger does ADS.
It’d help a lot in making the gameplay smoother.

An alternative quick way to melee would be great for when you’re rushed.
Holding B is really unnatural and kind of useless.
-can we get to use the new respirator with flashy goggles? (Since eyes are still exposed).
I know it’s just cosmetic, but it’d be cool. Maybe take a slot of something else for the trade off?

[tardy void]

Small Customization Suggestion
I’m not a fan of the vanilla officer name system, so I’d like to suggest an idea for a future RoN update

It would be great to have more realistic customization options by allowing players to replace the default officer name with

Callsign (alpha, bravo etc.)
POLICE
SWAT
FISA (unlock after Hide And Seek Mission)
Or remove any text like in 1.0 release Version

there is also a lot of space for Mod Creators with their own custom texts
for example: GIGN, POLIZEI, DEA, FBI, EOD

[final lion]

9 bangers should not shake our screen as much as they do. I guess if you're in the same room while they're going off, but I could be on a complete separate floor , in an isolated room and i'll still feel the shaking. Not the BIGGEST deal, but definitely an easy QOL fix .

[fading parcel]

QOL suggestion!
This game seem to use a relay network between player!
thus if anything happen with epic server it will render the game unable to play coop!

This game so far have 0 need for such this complicated problem!
highly suggest just allow player p2p hosting to avoid this whole thing in the future

[twilit glade]

Add a Fidelity+performance mode. because performance mode graphics on series x are horrible and playing on 30 fps for better graphics or an abysmal headache inducer. make a mode that supports fidelity graphics locked at 60 fps for Xbox series X and more powerful consoles. because the current graphics for performance is horrible and the 30 fps lock is also horrible.

[wintry knoll]

Not sure if anyone has said this before but I would love the ability to skip/mute/lower the volume of the TOC/enemy dialogue during A New America. I'm on my 302498230498th attempt of solo hard and at this point it's just distracting and overwhelming. Was very cool at first but now it's a nuisance

[sharp spire]

RoN developers, your game is amazing and I always love to play a tactical response shooter type game and ready or not is perfect as I get to command my own team and deal with this ultra-realistic high risk shooter situations.

One thing I hope to see more is more missions to the campaign such as more house raids as I dig the realism on those type of maps,

I could imagine a dlc that’s full of house raiding maps, they could be arrest warrants, drug raids, hostage situations, false 911 calls etc

[unborn gorge]

Incapacitation should not equal a Kill in determining points at the end of round.

[spice ice]

[Suspect Behavior]

Om Hard difficulty, the suspects are side strafing while firing in full auto with zero penalty to accuracy and at a much higher speed than reasonable. As such, I want to see this completely removed. The suspects should move from cover to cover and only fire in short 3-round bursts or semi auto while on the move with much less accuracy.

[cunning lintel]

[Flashbang Effective Radius]

Flashbangs should stun targets through cover unless it's a solid wall.

I just had a flashbang deflagrate within 5 feet of a suspect, but because he was taking cover behind a couch it had no effect.

Only solid walls and closed doors should protect against flashbangs within their effective radius.

[old palm]

[Suspect Reaction and Behavior]

Suspects have an inhuman reaction, and control for recoil. I could silently open a door while a suspect is fully turned around, and immediately get 750rpm to the face. Considering that Judge can't fully control the recoil for most guns, some of the same guns that suspects use, and he's a veteran FISA and SWAT operator, these suspects shouldn't have Champion R6 aim.

E.g. I'll get cross-room sniped by a gas station robber in a diner if my character half steps into view with prestige accuracy before I can even round the corner. (This is on normal mode, mind you)

And Hard mode is even worse; yes, it's hard mode, but they have split-second reaction time that not even a Navy SEAL could replicate.

Why?

[bitter bramble]

[SF10 gas mask anti-flash lenses]

Balance is why flash protection and gas protection is seperate, but a convenient and real addition would be an option to run anti-flash lenses on at least the SF10 gas mask.

The SF10 gas mask was used British SAS, notably with some use of anti-flash lenses. Being able to run anti-flash with at least the one end-game reward mask would be a cool gimmick (with some history behind it), and having it on all of the masks would just make for less of an awkward hassle.

[royal spindle]

Hi Ready Or Not Community, hope everyone is doing alright; I would like to share a couple game update Ideas that I think would be good, and want to put it out there.

SUGGESTION

1. Less Lethal Weapons

• The Defenzia M-09, AK the OSA PB-4SP non Lethal.

2. K9 dog: of course with protection.
3. Add a disorienting Siren for the shield.
4. More Map.

Hope this helps,
Happy Gaming.

[dull quail]

I was wondering if it would be possible to implement voice recognition in Ready or Not, allowing players to issue verbal commands directly to suspects. Being able to say commands like “Get down!” instead of relying on a button would significantly enhance immersion and realism.

I understand that this may not be feasible, but I wanted to share the idea in case it is something worth considering. I truly enjoy the game as it is—thank you for your continued effort and for creating such a great experience.

[amber cosmos]

Create a survival mode on the map ‘A New America’ where you fend off waves of attacking MLO forces.

[thorn crow]

[QOL]

Add a Setting to Auto skip the Equipment after restarting a mission

So after quick restarting a mission the countdown was instant 10sec wait till in the mission now everyone needs to ready up again and again everytime and for achievement runs oder you die dumb and dont want to change anything and just back in the run its pretty annoying to ready up everytime so would be nice to add a setting in the multiplayer section where you can toggle to just skip this part and go back to the normal 10sec countdown

(Also in Singleplayer its annoying i just want to get back in fast and not click ready up again so toggle would be cool yea)

[stone turret]

[QOL]

SEPARATE CANTED ADS ZOOM OPTION

Add an additional option in settings to allow (for example) zooming when in full ADS, but not when canted ADS. Would allow better situational awareness while in canted aim, while retaining the option for precision aim when looking down sights.

[analog pelican]

Add a workshop so people like me can download mod while playing on gaming cloud like nvidia geforce now

[wheat juniper]

Add a baton to quickly stop fleeing suspects or enemies who won’t drop there weapon.

[graceful turret]

Add a reverse cap without the headset

[faint glade]

In the last patch you announced that the reaction time of the suspects got reduced but still the reaction time which is needed on hard difficulty to counter the open fire of the suspects is still too hard to achieve

[hot wing]

I have an idea which I believe could really enhance the gameplay experience of ready or not making it more immersive and enjoyable. The game itself right now is currently my favorite game. However the only thing I was disappointed about was no option to use my real voice to command civilians and suspects. Adding an experimental feature of using your real voice to issue commands to the AI would be amazing I have several ideas for how that could be implemented but either way I would love to see this addition into the game.

[vernal oyster]

Suggestion and feature request: Add Head/Eye Tracking support
E.g. tobii 5

[novel skiff]

Hunger Strike (specifically) is now next to impossible to pass due to the very much heightened hostage-taking and executing behavior. Pretty much as soon as suspects know SWAT has arrived, especially from the parking lot entry by the van, they execute people upstairs before it is physically possible to reach or stop them. The use of suppressors has not mitigated this behavior either. It's unclear to me whether the suspects are treating SWAT arriving a floor beneath them as "getting too close" or if they are simply acting as full-blown active shooters now.

[dull quail]

As a console player, I believe implementing voice recognition would be a valuable addition to the game. Considering the developers’ evident skill and attention to detail, this feature does not seem overly complex to integrate—especially since even older titles have successfully included similar functionality. With current advancements in technology, implementation should be more accessible than ever.

The system would not need to be overly sophisticated; a small set of clearly defined voice commands—such as “Get down” or “LSPD, make yourself known”—would be sufficient. Suspects could then respond with appropriate voice lines, such as acknowledging their presence. Overall, this feature would significantly enhance immersion and create a more engaging player experience.

[vernal oyster]

Ron we need more realistic hit scan so when i shoot someone in the heart they are dead instead of incapacitated also when i shoot someone they have to treat that wound like we do when we are bleeding so that gives them a moment of vulnerability like we have.

[novel skiff]

Good job with the Hard difficulty enemies not telepathically knowing when you sneak up on them, and also sometimes staggering when hit. I might be a minority in saying so, but although not perfect it's definitely a big improvement

[high jasper]

Feature Request: Automatically reloading when you inspect ammo on an Empty mag

[deft pilot]

request: add option to completely remove primary firearm slot, so i can roleplay with the squad as first responders or off-duty

[lapis spire]

Feature Request : adding a prison DLC

so a cartel smuggles guns into the prison and over 100 prisoners are out (you will only be doing one cell block of the prison and there would be like 25 prisoners and 5 cartel members so 20 prisons 11 of them armed and 9 of them with shanks or unarmed) and a lot of them escaped but the LSPD and FISA blocked off the tunnel that they were using so it turns into a barricaded suspect so it would kind be like the bank but in a prison environment. (the community could come up with the rest or you)

[buoyant tiger]

[Cross-Play] Feature Request: Lobby Codes - I have noticed when trying to play with new people that there is a semi-awkward phase of trying to friend the person of either Steam or Epic or etc. and it can become tedious. A neat QoL addition would be having private lobbies generate a unique lobby code that can be shared to other players so they may enter that code in-game to join instead of going by the friend system. I appologize if this has already been suggested.

[twilit kelp]

[nostalgic from swat4] I would love to be able to command team to deploy a grenade in a room WITHOUT entering it.

[rain scroll]

Feature request: In headquarters in the shooting range having a section to test out guns on npcs of various body armor and such, example such as the first mission with no armor to New America with all the armor.

[livid prism]

open mic, most coop games incorporate this, it should be an option for people who use local voip setting and are playing with friends, no one wants to have to press a keybind everytime they want to speak

[lofty wigeon]

Please try and give console users mod support, it would make our experience a whole lot better.

[sour inlet]

Somewhat trivial but — Stubby Suppressor

[jolly frost]

thank you devs for adding blahaj

[timid hill]

Feature request: Specifically, I would like to propose adding the tactical sprint ability to lower armor layers, such as Kevlar and ceramic plates, to allow for better mobility when using lighter gear. Additionally, it would be great to see an option for an additional front pouch or functional vest pouches. These could provide players with the ability to carry more magazines or tactical gear, such as flashbangs, adding another layer of depth to loadout customization.

[summer bloom]

Hey Team. How can I formaly report how disgusting is the behavior of having guns up when suspects are close to Judge? I'm tired of dying when trying to arrest suspects and they just get up with a gun or a knife and there is nothing to do because my gun is up....

[broken sable]

this week i came back to the game after about a year or so not playing and starting all of the dlc together i had not been able to enjoy was in a big way disappointing to put it lightly in terms of how horribly bad the solo experience is now in commanding an effective team. i looked for others who had the same issues as to be sure i wasnt just imagining the now broken command system in the solo play sessions. i do not play online with other people in most games and especially ready or not as i dont particularly enjoy those interactions in games when what i am looking for is to relax and immerse myself into a well done game mode where solo is effective & rewarding.

solo command was so well done i could not say enough about how enjoyable it was and how effective i could immerse myself into the detailed and tactical methodical swat roleplay it offered. but the command system and ability to play opt the game with the ai team mates is something now completely opposite and broken compared to what it was before and from what i gathered in looking for others if they had the same issues started about 6 months ago. i cannot express how deeply disappointing the system somehow was broken in the ways it was and the ai team mates becoming at times clueless and ineffective to complete the flow of commands and at times not respond to commands at all or leave you in a position where you are killed by the failure of your teammates to engage in close quarters and even ignore enemy engagements as the entire team is being mowed down by aggressive and accurate enemy ai. the enemy ai being challenging and aggressive was something which made the implementation of the command system and how well you could piece the breach and clear of a building the most rewarding fps experience for me i could find. im not sure how this absolute failure to preserve the working condition of the team mate ai has happened and i only complain so heavily because of how good the team had done in solo action.

[broken sable]

in watching moonmoon on twitch play the game for the fist time from top to bottom in solo gameplay i see the same issues are happening for him also.

[drowsy fossil]

Please make a statement on the achievement tracking glitches, I know I may be a small part of the community but as someone who understands the game and mechanics at a high level it really feels defeating putting all this time into a game and simple things like tracking a achievement doesn’t function I’ve completed all the missions on hard, S ranked everything and now played through the new DLC I don’t even want to bother attempting the new achievements because why should I? The achievements will probably just bug out. What else is there do for someone like me who has played every mission 50-70+ times and unlocked every cosmetic and used every gun besides achievement hunt. And that doesn’t even function. The game has become extremely stale for that reason and I really hope that we can make a statement or just fix them because I’ve lost all interest in a game that can’t even fix core level backend tracking not to mention the numerous amounts of bugs that are seen by most players

Maybe just add on a new tab in career section called achievements, so for “getting your sea legs” or “from house to home” you can see what is or isn’t done on RoNs side instead of the console/steam side. I hope this makes sense as this could be implemented as some type of tracking fix for the achievement bugs

I am not a game dev but in my mind this should work? Because it seems the tracking from console for example, to the actual games code isn’t connecting so if RoN has its own achievement tracking tab it may be easier for them to unlock/track?

[deep hill]

I just picked the game up for the first time a week ago.

I am loving it but I am completely underwhelmed by how absolute shit the swat ai is. I often have to risk myself to protect them from getting shot even if they have a ballistic shield on, often getting myself killed in the process of babysitting them.

I have them wear full steel and ballistic shields for complete protection and they can still get gunned down by a mob with just a vest and a pistol if they attempt a one on one.

I'm relieved to hear this sentiment about horrible swat ai but I'm not really surprised at how bad they are. I really hope something changes soon cause I'm starting to feel like I wasted my money; especially when I try my best for over an hour only to get killed because of my stupid ai companions and then have nothing to show for my efforts. Getting an S rank has also become a nightmare and damn near impossible when every member of my team is letting me down. These are supposed to be the most elite of police units and they act like rats in a maze.

[uneven yew]

Add different colour lenses for the gas masks and add the M50 gas mask for us

[fierce obsidian]

I feel like this is such a niche thing to ask but can you please add legacy stick layouts to the console version of the game

[edgy notch]

I think it would be really cool to have more missions similar to the settings of 23Mbps, Ends of The Earth, Twisted Nerve, and Dorms where you are serving a warrant/operating in a populated area, where you have to be careful to ID your targets due to civilian presence.
I think maybe something like Thank You, Come Again but on a larger scale could be really good for this. Maybe a botched robbery at a mall or large shopping center would be really cool for this.

Also, I think it would be cool to have a manhunt mission, something like suspects fled into a forest, the area has been closed off and you are sent in to chase down the maybe like 5-7 suspects. But there’s also a missing officer you have to locate, and maybe some hikers.

[wide raptor]

Audio is complete dogwater. Even with the settings perfect, you can't tell if someone is above, below, left or right. Get it together, Void. Maps like elephant are the absolute worst for this reason. Hear someone screaming? go in direction of screaming: empty room, civilian dead. Where did the gunshot come from? who knows. go a floor above or below in the direction of the audio, more empty rooms. Not even a dead civilian. and why? because you're using an audio engine from the early 2000s.

[cunning lintel]

Why can't I keep my grenades out after throwing one? Why is the game switching weapons for me?

[rotund jewel]

Something I would like to see changed if possible but my dumb ass will still try to get it now is the requirements of one of the achievements on the new dlc boiling point it requires you to complete a new America alone in multiplayer on hard due to how OP the AI is on hard difficulty maybe changing this to a standard run the fact you have to do this solo on hard is a bit extreme and I do believe this would still be a challenge even on standard but the fact a lot of the times your not even able to react before the AI drops you with these insane pixel peaks is unfair yeah i get it if your barging into a room thinking your playing call of duty then yeah fair one but if AI has been purposely programmed to be unfair on hard then changing this to a standard would be great 😁

[reef yarrow]

We need the Team Ai reworked for situation awareness and life preservation. They also should have a quiet entry mode like Swat 3 and dynamic made since they yell too much and alert the whole neighborhood! I like to see better animation for walking and crouching from the team AI as well

Is Ali still working there or with the team AI algorithm?

[lilac mountain]

< CONSOLE FEATURE (Xbox and Playstation) >

Hello Team! Thank you for your time and for all the great work on the game!

I’d like to suggest the addition of a replay mode for the console versions (Xbox and PlayStation).

This feature is already available on PC and would be extremely valuable for console players as well. It would allow us to review missions, analyze decision-making, improve team coordination, and even create cinematic content.

I believe this addition would greatly enhance the overall experience and longevity of the game on consoles, as well as strengthen the community.

[placid moth]

[Suspect AI]

Hard difficulty AI

Part of the reason why I think the AI is so hard is because they can somehow shoot you when holding an angle so close to a wall. His gun can't even aim at me but he can still guesstimate with perfect accuracy

[midnight lagoon]

Is your POV supposed to be this disconnected from your actual hitbox? When you free lean max down your ingame camera is on ground level, while your actual model/hitbox shows you are just crouched. And bots target it for some reason, instead of actual hitbox. Here is side by side proof in actual gameplay: https://streamable.com/n7wj7n

[rotund jewel]

Fixing the enemy AI on hard I do believe this needs to be fixed because you get dropped so quickly without even being able to react when your anchoring door ways and corners, now every game has difficulty challenges I get that but there is a big difference between Feir and unfair or something just being unlucky I believe that the hard AI on this is unfair how am I ment to learn from my failures when I’m getting aimbotted, when the AI comes round the corner and within a fraction of a second they are pinpoint accuracy yeah I get it if you’re standing right in the open with no cover fair one but when I’m doing everything to keep as much body mass out of sight of the enemy also having steel full body plate armour on to get 3tapped I find it ridiculous, and a great quality of life would be to fix the broken AI on hard difficulty 🤙

[elfin ore]

Pistols aren’t really in a good spot at the moment. Their draw isn’t all that fast compared to just reloading, and even if you leave off attachments to minimize length they’re useless to try and draw when a suspect is too close for your primary to be able to fire.

[tacit viper]

I strongly agree with the need to improve enemy AI. I don't expect much from friendly AI. However, enemy AI immediately detects even the slightest opening and fires with accurate aim.

And why do the citizens keep resisting? I cannot understand why they refuse when the armed opponents (SWAT) are shouting for them to raise their hands. It is taking too long to secure the citizens.

[pure widget]

Console replay mode, it would help Ready or Not console content creators. Not to mention it would give more players the ability to share their screenshots and creativity.

[drowsy fossil]

I would just like to say from the previous comments here that the hard AI is completely fine (I have S ranked every mission with the bots, played every mission on hard with the bots, I have the developers ruined watch, S ranked A New America with the bots, and also got the handcuff.) The games AI is really easy once you learn how to free lean and flash corners to bait out or force AI to rotate into worse positions. The only thing that needs worked on if you actually want to make the game harder is making suspects more aware of flanking route.

It’s really easy to wedge off routes once you know map layout and basically stronghold your way through each map. Now that’s not to say the Hard AI still has some moments (i.e. lucky one tap headshot, infinite ammo?)

I think some also that could help in a new America would be once you kill an enemy you can interact with the comms radio on the dead guys body. Hearing the enemy say “flanking” “stack up” “going in” makes the game extremely predictable once you understand how the AI moves. I think having to “hack” into the comms and then being able to hear those call outs makes it more of a challenge.

I would also like to say I like the direction of a new America storyline wise and the gameplay.

But with that, this game is still a SWAT game going back and playing the other missions made me realize I stopped telling people to get down and just started blasting therefore hurting my rank. (Possibly intentional as you had to learn this from replaying new America so many times) but I think we need to keep in mind that for the next mission now we have to be careful to keep the line of not being a Tier 1 unit of door kickers vs SWAT caught up in a absolute mess where a city doesn’t have enough resources and uses D platoon as a spearhead. I don’t want the game to lose that identity. I’ve paid a lot more attention to the games lore and love the clues (detective board)of the overarching story reminds me of OG COD Zombies

[drowsy fossil]

Also I don’t know who works the story department but I see you with Judge and all the little clues you’ve been doing in missions and in the department over the course of the game for the last year. I wondered when that room in dark triad was going to come into fruition. Whoever is creating that storyline you’re actually cooking, the 2 endings of A new America got me hooked on the hidden story I’m just interested to see how far you can really keep this narrative without it being extremely unbelievable. Remember we still have to load into that HQ every single time so the jail ending juxtaposed with just spawning back at HQ was kind of strange. The other ending made more sense as he answered a radio call to leave.

Anyways who ever is creating that story line great job! It’s so cool that you guys are working towards a bigger story. The issues with these games are that there’s always a big story told over small missions with no substance or small missions w stories but no overarching big story connecting them. You guys are doing both so seriously great job!

Also let’s get some more tattoos that are on both arms

Yap sesh over thx love the game

[sharp spire]

RoN devs it would be great to add more missions to the campaign. An exception for another dlc would be like house raids and stuff and I’m thinking like atleast 10+ missions were it ranges from just search and arrest warrants to drug raids, high profile arrests, hostage situations, rescue operations were we had to rescue fellow cops or civilians.

[rotund jewel]

No sorry I have to strongly disagree I should of been more specific on what needs changing the achievement for completing a new America alone in a MP lobby on hard difficulty witch results in you needing to fight hard enemy AI overall in solo game, how can the enemy AI be completely fine when the moment you got a pixel of the enemy in your line of sight when they are not even looking in your direction to automatically become aware of your presence to then drop you in a mili second? just because you completed missions on hard getting S rank congratulations by the way that does take time and commitment but so have i 🤝 that doesn’t mitigate that the AI is broken yes I’m using free lean keeping as much of my body in cover but when the enemy just runs round the corner and immediately 1 tap within a mili seconds when your hold that position knowing that they are about to come around the corner sorry that is not fine gameplay and how are you ment to analyse what you did wrong you can’t

I am a believer in being able to take a step back analyse what went wrong when failing on any game looking back at what you could do differently but with these AI at the moment it’s not possible, everyone saying on the guides you just have to keep replaying until you get lucky on RNG spawns to me that sound like bad AI only 4 people on PS have unlocked the trophy and considering I’ve been trying to do this achievement now for a couple of days and every time I’ve been dropped is due to AI chatting absolute bollocks

[solar rain]

Mission Concept: Underground Psychological Scenario

An abandoned metro operation focused on uncertainty and tension rather than constant firefights.
• Players clear rooms gradually, with no full picture of the situation
• Individuals appear in separate areas wearing similar ritual-like clothing
• Some are unresponsive, others behave unpredictably
• It becomes unclear who is a threat and who is not

The key idea is not a single “reveal”, but slow realization — piece by piece — that something organized is happening.

This would create hesitation, force decision-making, and rely on observation instead of reflex.

Focus:
• low visibility
• layered underground layout
• sound-driven tension (echoes, distant movement)

A mission built on psychological pressure rather than action.

[crystal cairn]

i agree on the citizens part, like in real life no idiot would dare punch a swat or they will get demolished, also why are civvies KICKING down doors, that too feels super hilarious

[pale hound]

[Player and Teammate customization]

Face and Voice, quickplay.

I feel that you should be able to customize the player and teammate face and voice in quick play for player freedom reasons. It’s always a bit of a bummer when I’m unable to put a balaclava on when I’m not playing with friends or solo.

[gentle inlet]

AI more responsive when being shot.

Often when I shot suspect into the leg (unarmored) with fiveseven or g18c they should feel it..anyways they act like nothing is going on with 0 stagger or anything.

We are talking about repetitive being shot to the leg ..

Immersion is dying without details like this, even when I land hits they go down or something happen to them after solid 5 6 shots.

Plus I'm shield operator. WEAPONS DO GLITCH TROUGH SHIELDS!! that's big no no and dumb in a way. Becuase my weapons go up,but theirs weapon glitch and kill me trough shield .

Suspect with knife acts like there is no shield at all in the way..

[shell harbor]

Is there a possibility to make an exception for points with “Uncensored or Not” mode? To undergo missions with official result?

[fallen pier]

I think the game should include a free version, like I really like the game but 37 is too expensive, especielly when converting this in my country device

[dim heart]

Hello, I'd like to sincerely thank you for the fantastic game Ready or Not.

If I may, I'd like to leave a thank you. And I'd also like to make some suggestions for the game, if that's alright?

Specifically, would it be possible to add glare-blocking lenses to the gas masks?

That way, the player wouldn't have to switch between glare-blocking goggles and the gas mask.

P.S.: You're all doing a great job, keep it up!

[tame dome]

A.I in this game is abysmal. when are y'all gonna fix it? please add suppresion effects and limb penalties for the A.I. increase reaction time, make them less accuarate and lower FOV for them; that simple

[rough ember]

Please make it possible to use a taser with a shield.

[rain plaza]

I think the game should include a free version, but it should have only one mission and yeah, just an small testing game if the game is worth to buy

[quaint mica]

Just sent in a request to void for new settings options (specifically for controller) and I'd like to know what you guys think about them?
On/Off-Canted Aim Auto Deploy Light

On/Off-Canted Aim Auto Deploy Laser

On/Off-Canted Aim Auto Deploy All Attachments

[sterile tapir]

A small, well, realism detail: Weaponry is usually secured as evidence in boxes, not in envelopes/zip bags. It would be a nice correct detail, so that you don't see an assault rifle being wrapped up in an envelope that's clearly not the proper size

[sharp karma]

A fan's request. Please, in the next update, make "Ready or Not" accessible to left-handed users. Thank you, my friends.

[elfin ore]

Suspects will instantly shoot through a doorway that was blown up by C2 despite the literal explosion obstructing visibility

The most stingy breaching tool really ought to not be a detriment if a suspect is beyond stun range

[fiery pelican]

Please remove the damn Programmed Psychosis achievement, seriously man, I've been trying to get it for two stupid weeks, why? Why did you do it that way? PC players make it look easy, but their enemies don't react the same way.

[arctic heron]

Female avatars pretty please devs >:]

[pastel crystal]

The quad nods in ready or not for Xbox are super close to the gun like I have a magnifier on them

[sharp spire]

Add more missions to the campaign and increase the lore it’s intresting
Mission ideas I have include multiple suspects on the run into private property or a forest, maybe a siege in a shopping mall, more house raids

If another dlc is planned I think it should be like house raids and seizing illegal items and not just 3 missions in the dlc I’m thinking like 10+ missions of all these house raids and reasons ranging from stash houses, drug and weapon running, open warrants, hostage situations, break and enter, false reports, terrorists and all sort of things. And range of suspects since these are just house raids some of them don’t need multiple enemies I reckon some of these missions might just have 1 or 2 person to arrest and other missions having multiple suspects

And add more missions where people can role play as first responding police I enjoy walking into some of the missions with just a pistol

[thin gate]

Please let us use the Remington 870 Express Tactical.

[fallen pier]

Why not adding a community edition? Like the game is really good but kinda too expensive.

[crystal oasis]

I think the ai should get a few reworks like how when they split a door they should be holding shoulders and also a few commands re added for example "flashbang and clear with leader then move and clear next room" or if theres two rooms you want to split red and blue team to clear there should be a way to make them open and clear the like intersection of it (for example the 2 rooms infront of you after getting up to the first floor in a new america

[twilit echo]

The Devs should fix a very annoying issue that got me killed multiple times, when the suspects rush around a corner and are face to face against myself, they can shoot and my guy can't, keeps his weapon pointing upwards.

This is supper frustrating when they appear out of nowhere and you can't shoot and die because of this idiotic behaviour. Either none of us can shoot or I can shoot as well as him.

[thin gate]

We should be able to use the taser and pepper spray with the shield.

Also having a baton would be cool too.

[cedar kelp]

I have a few ideas but mostly I recommend having the AK-102 which it is a 5.56 nato rounds

[slow saddle]

I guess I have one gun idea in mind, it was gonna be a grail SAR. But I guess I got one pistol in mind.

[thick moth]

[Multiplayer]
Leave Multiplayer Lobbies
in multiplayer please let us leave the lobby when the host restarts the mission, the only option you have is to ready up so i have to wait until the mission starts again if I want to leave the lobby, makes it even annoying when others not readying up and you're stuck waiting 2 minutes... and i dont want to alt+f4 everytime, thanks!

[halcyon ingot]

Following up on my previous email to your support team, I would like to strongly reiterate my request for Mod support for the PS5 version of Ready or Not.
I am a dedicated player who has achieved an S-rank on all missions and successfully completed the Ironman mode. Having fully exhausted all the current content, I am eager for more ways to enjoy this game. I sincerely hope the development team will consider this request, as mod support would significantly extend the game's longevity and replayability for console players.
Thank you for your time and for all the hard work you put into this game.

[onyx gate]

can you have show player names on by default?

[gusty cipher]

DEVS PLEASE ADD MK-23 SOCOM AND THE ABILITY TO PUT AWAY YOUR PRIMARY AND MY LIFE IS YOURS 🙏

[sharp spire]

We need more missions added to the campaign, I love the work you put into the game, being in charge of a swat team is really fun and I always find myself replaying the missions, but at this point of replayed them too many times to the point where I know where the enemies are on each map and where to go. More map ideas I have are more house raids I very much enjoy going in and execute high risk search and arrest warrants, taking down drug running and weapons operations or even hostage situations.
Please consider this for the next major update. Another idea I have is that if you were to bring out a dlc make it only house raids and not just 3 missions like every other dlc, make atleast 7+ and range them from what I listed before

[brittle quartz]

one of my friends reached out to me recently and suggested that RON should have the windows and ledges hop over function.

another suggestion that was made and alot of us agree on it is the speed of the characters, alot of our players deaths happen because they are trying to run for cover due to low health or ai aimbot shooting through walls and just somewhere to really readjust themselves and its like "my nan walking to go put her teeth back in" kinda speed. i feel like there should be improvements on this made. ive heard from alot of other groups and players that have complained about the walking speed.

[loud granite]

[AI and UI]

Improvements on AI teammates behaviour and loadout saving mechanic

I'd be extremely grateful and even more driven to play this game to its full extends, dlcs and so on, if this the AI revived a new patch, every time I play the game the AI behaviour gets in the way of a proper playthrough, they are either bumping into you (crossing the line of fire, instead of going behind you), getting stuck on doors, not clearing intersections properly (turning their back to an open door with a suspect to clear the other corner and dying), maybe the walking speed is connected to this a little, but I believe if the AI was somewhat more structured, we wouldn't be so frustrated having to repeat a 20-30 minute missions again and again because our teamates died because of something outside if the player's control. It's also very frustrating when you want them to clear with you but stop at a certain point, they don't need to go all the way to the end of the hallway and get separated or start clearing every room by themselves. There are other issues, specially when you give them an order and they don't do anything or don't shoot the suspect.

Another huge point of frustration that keeps people from enjoying this game are the loadouts disappearing, it happened before the update and still happens, there are so many things to configure on the equipment loadout and there's 4 teammates you can configure too, having them be deleted because you were trying to replace another loadout is beyond frustration and has made me quit the game for a while.

I understand it's really complex to have an AI behave like real people or similar to the controls you can give in games such as doorkickers, but the squad is a small team of 4 people for huge ops and I'd like to see my teammates actually be competent, because right now they feel horrible to play with and very stressful, this way I wouldn't have to give up and try to complete the level all by myself or be forced to play multiplayer.

[fast elm]

[New Maps]

Add a prison map in a riot or other event
Add a store map like Walmart, Staples, even Costco.

[blissful olive]

vr mode pls 🙂

[tidal bramble]

Hello my favourite developers, could we see the KAC KS1 added to RoN? It would be a great fit as it’s used by many close protection teams and the RMC’s. Also I’d love to see the ability to customise your plate carries, e.g pouches, dump pouch, medkits, battlebelt etc etc.

Keep up the great work, first great fps in a good while!

[regal shuttle]

AI changes on both sides. Some suspects AI that have no military experience in the game right now seem to know how to hold guns. I mean tweak some suspects, depending on factions in game, to shoot the guns like some gangsters do irl, either with one hand sideways for pistols and rifles being held by suspects not on the shoulders but shoot like they never shot a rifle before. Even some terrorist groups and cartel members shot rifles without holding them on their shoulders, there are some videos on this. This will add more to the realism aspect of which faction you are facing where a security detail has more experience on using guns than a gangster or crack head that barely shot any gun.

Another aspect is the AI swat: they will get them selves shot instead of shooting back, plus they will risk their lives for that evidence that is like in a threshold with the risk of exposing themselves or when clearing a room they don't even cover the hotspots of the room and instead they might face a wall instead of facing the open door where danger might come from, really fix this they don't have even self preservation.

[plucky narwhal]

Add a baton as a secondary for us riot shield users would be rather sweet. I'd figure it'd have the same mechanic as beanbag rounds were excessive use would end up becoming lethal as well to avoid melee spam?

[slim orchid]

Add a mall shooting and possibly some more house raids

[wind delta]

So, got some big complaint on either/and suspect behaviour (and some of the animations) and the map Greased palms,

For context, I am currently doing a dual achievement run on clearing all maps on hard and on ironmanmode, I have over 140 hours in this game already and am quite accustomed to all of the game mechanics etc by now, and this is neither my first tactical shooter or shooter in general, while not some Esports pro I am quite well in shooters in general including the tactical genre.

Now, not a dev person, but difficulty scaling can certainly be done differently, there are some severe issues with suspect and SWAT AI behavior, and just, the mission greased palms in general. Now yes, hard mode is supposed to be hard, I'm not complaining because It's "too hard" but because theres some just blatanly messed up/buggy/unfair aspects with these issues such as;

-Suspect AI being able to track you perfectly through solid objects and hitting you with absolute percision; through objects, while running, after 180° turns, e.g
-SWAT AI insisting on yelling for compliance for a good second or two (which can decide life or death) instead of returning fire despite taking fire (outside of this, It could also be neat and useful to have an option for a quiet run, because sometimes, they ruin trying to sneak up closer on suspects by yelling and alerting them from far away, resulting in you taking hyper accurate fire from long range, which ADDITIONALLY suppresses you ontop of being so accurate)
-Suspect AI being able to see you through the smallest and littlest of gaps between objects, that the player couldn't conceivably do the same through (combined with the tracking issue, this makes Greased Palms EXTREMELY unfair)
-Civilian AI for some reason backing AWAY from SWAT and towards suspects
-Suspect AI being able to go from the stalling animation/when you're yelling at them to drop their gun, to pointing it straight at your head and shooting, sometimes WAY faster than the average human reaction time (with perfect aim)
-Suspects in general having PERFECT recoil control during sustained AUTOMATIC fire, even while MANEUVERING/RUNNING
-Near ALL suspects being somehow able to telepathically coordinate with each other like a tactical team either
-No indication WHATSOEVER where you're being shot from leading to even more frustrating deaths

In general believe a more dynamic difficulty scaling of suspect groups would've been better (makes sense for Veterans to have tactical sense and better aim, but not some random crooks/mobsters to the same level), the easy, medium, hard feels a bit "videogamey" for a tactical shooter, not to mention aforementioned issues with Greased Palms map design coupled with the mentioned AIs problematic abilities. But regardless, even for a "challenge" this goes above and into just being very unbalanced.

[loud merlin]

Please add the replay camera for console

[rare void]

I have an idea for a DLC. It's a 3 mission break down. Ok so check it out. The President & VP are on their way to Los Sueno to show that they stand with the people & acknowledge that things must change to save the city.
Mission 1 (Aftermath) After the events of "New America" the governor of California has a convention set up at either the Los Sueno Convention Center (LA Center) or either the Lakers Play or the Clippers play to give a speech. Unfortunately hostiles lay siege on the building forcing the governor to seek shelter & wait to be rescued. Objective: Save the governor. Save civilians. Bring Order to chaos.
Mission 2 (Airport [LAX]) The VP was ambushed enroute to the governor & cannot leave. Secret Service is being overwhelmed & need immediate assistance! Gas bombs from the pier mission are in the area. Objective: Disable the bombs. Save the VP. Save civilians. Bring Order to chaos.
Mission 3 (Air Force 1). Air Force 1 has been damaged by an sleeper agent airline employee & cannot take off. Secret Service is stretched thin between protecting both the president & VP. National Guard is on the way but D Platoon is the best team for the job. Nuclear launch codes may be compromised if the terrorists get there hands on the president. Objective: Save the president. Bring Order to chaos. Call the DLC Election Day & release on the 4th of July or November. What do you think? I would love to hear your input on that. I play on Xbox & my gamertag is CallSignLegacy. Great job on this game & I can't wait the next DLC or even Ready or Not 2. I vote Chicago for the location 😆. Peace.

[glossy flame]

Can you add a upgrade edition on console and not have people who didn’t buy the digital deluxe edition have to buy the game again just to get the guns that come with it

[muted magnet]

1. Please remove the weapon reload from the weapon selection button. I'm tired of dying from misklik...
2. Please disable the primary weapon animation if there is an enemy in the player's field of view. It's a cool animation, but not when you've run out of ammo in your main weapon and you urgently need a sidearm.
3. It would be great if we could skip the animation of the mission result. The game is quite hardcore, you often have to start over. These 10 seconds of shame are very upsetting.

Thank you!

[Customization]

[Added Variety]

1.) For some of the vests (E.g JNTO Trickster, Sly Low Visibility Vest, Dynamic Plate Carrier, etc) it feels like it's lacking in equipment?? I do get their descriptions and for what they're supposed to do. It just feels like a bit more could be added to their slots so that it wouldn't feel bland. Yes, I'm also aware that there's a mod to add those said customization options but, it would be nice if I didn't need to constantly replace the mod file after every update.

2.) To my knowledge, the BDRTAC must be the only heavy vest that utilizes the digital desert camo. Although, the FPC Plate Carrier also utilizes the same camo, I think a variety in the BDRTAC just like the plate carrier could go a long way for other players. So that they would enjoy the heavy vest without making an outfit that (probably) solely relies on the desert pattern.

3.) I remember seeing some people asking for a hoodie in the shirt slot in the customization, and I think that's also a good addition. Just so people wouldn't feel constrained to either; A polo shirt, a polo, a tshirt (not to be confused with the Speed hoss short/long sleeve), and/or a rash guard. Again, I'm unfamiliar if SWAT units are even allowed to have those in their departments when conducting their operations.

4.) Speaking of civilian wear, a different style of polo and polo shirt would be nice. We're only limited to 3 styles for each category and having to constantly pick the polo (because it has better options for customization), as opposed to picking the polo shirt where the player can either go black, brown or Hawaiian kinda gets repetitive. And same can be said with the tshirt (again, not to be confused with the Speed hoss short/long sleeve), as it is the only variant that shows up in the customization option.

That's all for my message, thank you!

[arctic whale]

hi! I wanted to ask if there are plans to improve the gyro aim support (pc/console)?

maybe adding extra sliders or even flick stick?

[wheat dove]

I am once again asking that we get rid of press checks for secondaries. The whole I'm being shot at, but hold on guys, give me an entire 3 seconds to casually draw my sidearm and check the chamber, thing is just... the worst

[novel skiff]

couple QOL requests for SWAT commands:

• add Open, Leader, and Clear to default door commands list
• add Ram and Clear to default locked door commands list (why is it not already there?)
• If Open, Leader, and Clear is active on a doorway, and the Close Door command is issued, cancel the Open, Leader, and Clear command and revert back to Stack Up. Currently, if you do this, the pointman will close the door and then immediately reopen it again, which is unhelpful.
• add Open, 9-Bang, and Clear to default door commands list
• add support for queueing quick/default commands so I don't have to open the menu
• add an option in settings for "default Fall-In command" e.g. Diamond, Double Stack, etc

one more thing - please make clearing double doors so that a split stack will move through simultaneously instead of single file. Dynamic entry through single doorways isn't terrible but double doors are incredibly slow. Maybe change them to buttonhook?

it would be really nice if SWAT made a bigger priority of following tightly/closely when the player is moving slowly. It's understandable for them to trail behind when moving quickly or covering large areas but there are many times I want the swat AI to stick to me like butter like they would in say, rainbow six 1998, and something like "hold the walk button" would be a really intuitive way to signal that without adding more commands. Currently, when holding walk, all AI officers slow their roll, regardless of distance. the guys in the back should try to catch up if they're not close.

[carmine echo]

If this is already in the game then ping me but it would be nice if you could add a sprint button or even change the default keybinds for the peek action so when you press down on the walk button you sprint because I find that on controller it seems slower than keyboard and mouse.

Can you also add the M4A1 please and maybe like gun Camo or ghille suits

[slim orchid]

Please add replay for console and the ability to have a strobe light and disorient suspects with it

[wind delta]

Suggestion to just, change the "difficulty system" mechanic, because It just feels wildly out of place in a game like Ready Or Not that's supposed to be a tactical shooter/Police sim type of thing, and just scaling all suspects across the board doesn't make any logical sense, as in for them all to be on the same level, It breaks immersion, and hard mode with the way AI works currently and a bunch of bugs just is not even "hard" anymore but flat out humanly and realistically/statistically impossible to beat, because basically the suspect AI just turns into Delta Force operators on speed with the unwillingness to surrender of Hiroo Onoda

It would much more make sense to have things such as, compliance, coordination with other suspects, aim/percision, tactical/situational awareness be scaled differently acocrdingly with each mission and suspect group;

It doesn't make sense for low level thugs robbing a gas station to have the same aim and tactical team coordination as combat veterans like that of the Left Behind for example

It also wouldn't make sense for some enforcers/crooks to have the same unwillingness to surrender with 5 guns pointed at you, as If they're one of the radical terrorists from "The Hand" that already intend to kill and die as martyrs, or for some security personnel to open fire on the cops without hesitation, or much less fake a surrender and try to pull a sneaky gun once they know It's real cops

You have all this nicely established lore and background for all the different suspects and suspect groups, the briefings before a mission with info on the tablet, It all sets a stage and expectations for what you're about to go into, and I for one think the suspect difficulty should reflect that, by having some missions/suspect groups just be inherently easier/harder than others, and better/worse in certain categories; i.e More/less compliant/willing to surrender, more/less accurate, more/less situationally aware; (MLO/Left Behind vs drug addicts), coordination with other suspects less or more, willingness to take hostages and KILL hostages,

On that latter, I also think It makes no sense for MOST suspect groups to just take a hostage, hold them for human shield to stall out SWAT and force you to take a well aimed shot.... then just execute the hostage... giving up the only shield they had from you and giving you every reason to shoot them... going against the whole point of taking a hostage

[rotund jewel]

So thanks for the new update my achievement has finally unlocked for getting your sea legs, 🤙 but can we have the achievement programmed psychosis requirement changed if you want to keep it a solo run changing it to normal instead or hard you would still have the challenge there but due to how stupidly over powered the AI is for 10g with no cosmetics as an reward for doing this seeing this requirement changed would be great thanks 🤝

[shell ingot]

The Programmed Psychosis achievement is just not fun or fair. In full heavy armor with a ballistic mask im still getting 1 shot and on hard mode the Ai just almost always knows exactly where you are. Its not fun to play a team based strategy game completely solo when you combine that with having to clutch a 1v26 with a bunch of ai that are basically using wall hax and aimbot. Can we get it tweaked to normal or a tweak to hard mode to make it less unfair like maybe make the ai either less omniscient or make damage not be 10 times what it is on normal

2 more things

Make the mission score recap screen skippable this screen is very annoying when youre doing something like grinding programmed psychosis or other difficult achievement attempts and every failed run you have to wait on seeing it total your score you already know is an F.

I understand suspects and some civilians but in a level like a new america why do civilians never surrender from a swat officer screaming get down at them over 5+ times. It seems like civilians wont get down unless you melee them. This is very annoying and doesnt really add to the challenge much outside of a level like "all gods burn" where there are a ton of civilians and suspects that look identical. those civilians i also can understand cause theyre protestors that are there to make things difficult but why are journalists and office workers not listening to the command until you either punch them or execute a suspect infront of them.

[mystic glacier]

Hey devs at Void Interactive,

First off—great work on Ready or Not. The game’s direction and attention to detail really stand out, and it’s clear there’s been solid progress over time. I wanted to share a few suggestions that could potentially improve gameplay depth, immersion, and replayability.

1. AI Improvements

• Expand suspect and civilian AI behavior (more dynamic reactions to sound, suppression, and player presence)
• Improve SWAT AI coordination in single-player (stacking, clearing, and reacting more naturally)

2. Gear & Equipment Expansion

• Add more optic and attachment variety (LPVOs, magnifiers, IR lasers, etc.)
• Even if full licensing isn’t possible, similar in-game equivalents would add variety and realism

3. Deeper Customization

• Gradually expand weapon and operator customization (inspired by systems like Ground Branch)
• More modular setups for gear (vests, attachments, etc.) to increase player identity and flexibility

4. Loadout & Armor Options

• Consider replacing or supplementing stab vests with chest rigs or alternative load-bearing systems
• Could allow different trade-offs (mobility vs protection vs equipment capacity)

5. Operator Variety

• Adding female operators (especially for COOP) could increase representation and player choice
• Understand this involves additional modeling/voice work, so more of a long-term idea

6. Map Variety

• While CQB is the core strength, introducing a few larger or longer-range engagement maps could add variety
• Even hybrid environments (interior + exterior engagement zones) could work

7. Experimental Game Mode Idea

• A defensive scenario where SWAT holds a position (e.g., a station) against overwhelming hostile forces
• Could be a high-intensity mode that tests coordination and resource management without affecting core realism modes

Some of these ideas may not align fully with the current design direction, but I hope a few are useful or worth considering

Hopefully.

[supple solstice]

Hello, I’d like to share some feedback about the current state of Ready or Not on console.

First, the AI still feels inconsistent. Sometimes enemies seem to react unrealistically fast or appear to know the player’s position even through walls. It’s not as broken as before, but it doesn’t feel as polished as it did previously on PC. Since AI is a core part of the experience, improving its behavior, reaction time, and detection logic would make a big difference.

Second, playing from South America, the online experience is limited by high ping (usually around 80–100 ms or more). This affects co-op gameplay noticeably. It would greatly improve the experience if there were dedicated LATAM servers or better regional matchmaking.

Third, the amount of content feels somewhat limited for long-term play. Expanding the game with more maps, missions, weapons, and customization options would help a lot with replayability.

Additionally, it would be great to see:

• A female character option, including appropriate models and voice lines, as female SWAT operators exist in real life.
• More gear, cosmetics, and tactical variety that also impacts gameplay.
• Continued support with meaningful updates that improve both gameplay and content.

The game has a lot of potential, but these areas would significantly improve the overall experience, especially for console players.

Thank you for your work and for listening to the community.

[frigid pilot]

[Training]

Expand on training options

Hello, I was looking into some of the training options you can do from singleplayer, and the one shown is very beginner-focused. I would like it if there were an option to have a more advanced training or a customizable training ground with AI enemies.

[cold nova]

For PS5 and Dualsense controllers (also kinda the new steam controller)

There needs to be an extensive overhaul to control layout, incorporating the touchpad and directional swiping would help by a considerable amount

I say this as someone who has 140ish binds on warthunder (on PS5 originally with a dualsense but now with a dualsense edge; binds number only has increased by around 5 with the dualsense edge) I do this to avoid wheels and lists whenever possible so that way when I need to do x thing I just do it. This should the underlying design principle around the controls for at least the dualsense

Also fix gyro aim it has some sort of angular velocity cap (to make an anology it would be like playing CS2 using a mouse at 1600 DPI at 1.6 ingame sens but then having it so if you move the mouse beyond 32cm/s it just stops increasing you aim speed) that makes you so unbearably slow

[granite spoke]

please I'd like this issue to be looked into:
RoN has this strange bug for me where I can't run the DX12 version headless on my GPU that DOESN'T have a monitor plugged into it so that I can use Lossless scaling to utilize BOTH of my GPUs effectively. Instead it ONLY runs on the one the monitor is directly plugged into. I've tried everything from windows graphics settings to set the GPU, to Driver per application priority to even setting engine.ini files but NOTHING works. the DX11 does work flawlessly though which is strange to me. I've even changed the windows exploit settings but nothing worked. Devs please fix this. i've got a 9070 xt and a 2070 super this is the ONLY game that has this issue so far and it is my understanding that the devs themselves have to address this specific issue.

[distant basin]

Game Suggestions:

• Add a med kit (part of the deployables) that you can use to partially heal yourself
  -Add an option to have a leg holster instead of on the belt.
• Add an in built mod browser to console
• Option you add a patch (eg. country flag, POLICE) to vest

[dense maple]

Suggestion or idea for a level
Barricaded suspects/shooting at a assisted senior living location

[thorn hare]

Suggestion Co-op AI Teammates: Please add an option to fill the squad with AI SWAT members when playing multiplayer with just one friend. Currently, if there are only two of us, we have to clear the whole map alone. Being able to bring the "crew" into co-op would make the tactics much more realistic.

Shopping Mall Mission: Instead of more school maps, an expansive shopping mall or department store mission would be incredible. Navigating food courts and multi-level stores while managing civilians would be a top-tier challenge for solo players.
Official "British Suits": Please consider adding official Wolf Grey CTSFO uniforms and SCO19 patches for Xbox. As we can't use PC mods, having these "unblurred" tactical skins would be a major win for your international fans.
K9 Support: A K9 unit to help find civilians or track suspects would add a much-needed layer of tactical depth for those of us playing without an AI squad.

You guys responded to my email told me pop the suggestion in here

[deft forge]

Suggestion for a halligan tool
I think a halligan bar added as a new entry device would be cool

[sand jacinth]

@deft forge I agree on the Halligan Bar, it would be great, we need a female swat officer option, more gear, more future dlcs, and more weapons like the CZ Scorpion Evo 3 A1 SMG, Standard Manufacturing DP-12 Shotgun, AN-94 and Sig MCX Spear as possible assault rifles, and Desert Eagle Mark XIX, Smith & Wesson M&P45, and SIG Sauer P320 or the Walther P99 as possible pistols.

[clever brook]

The bots’ long-range shots never miss—every single one lands on my head or body. Even when I shoot at an enemy from a great distance while their back is turned and they clearly haven’t seen me, the moment I fire they instantly spin around and hit me with perfect accuracy.

I’ve already reported this issue multiple times via email asking for it to be fixed, and now I’m posting here as well. Please address this problem.

I’m trying to achieve an S rank on all missions on Hard difficulty, and honestly this is around my 300th attempt. Yet because of this issue, I still can’t complete this mission. The bots’ perfectly accurate long-range shots make it impossible to progress.

It feels like we’re just a gang while they’re Delta Force. I can confidently say even Delta Force doesn’t shoot this flawlessly. Every single bullet they fire lands as if the bots are using cheats.

[sharp spire]

I think a new system where we add diffrent types of calls like active shootings, home invasions and search warrants, hostage situations, drug raids, and all the other reasons and add a bunch new maps like them

[sleek valley]

Something that I would love to be added to the game is Unity risers with space for an optic and a PEQ unit. For some weapons like the MK-18, the added height over bore would be beneficial to the overall sight lines of the weapon, and it would add another degree of customization. When the riser would be equipped, then the overbarrel option would just stick whatever you put in that slot on the riser, and the illuminator would stay the same. The system wouldn't really be much more complex, and an added degree of realism would accompany this change. Not to mention, I would like to have one for micro-dots on some SMGs as that would lift the optic up slightly so that it is easier to use with irons.

Adding the ability to add patches to the game would also be really cool. FISA, POLICE, BDRTAC, MARSHALS, Country flags, etc. would be a great quality of life addition. Players would be able to more realistically change their kits to match their playstyle and/or vibe they are going for, and some morale patches would also be fun for devs to add in order to mess with players or follow popular trends.

[compact cairn]

I’ll add on that. With a patch system devs should also allow adding custom patches. As well as implementing some basic “morale patches”

[civic path]

Most of the clocks in the PD show different times (Doesn't affect gameplay/game mechanics or anything but it's something I noticed)

[gilded silo]

Please add free look on consoles, as I want to be able to see what's happening around me without having to move my weapon's barrel. Thanks.

[polar chasm]

Please look more into Squad AI.

I just finished all maps S Rank and getting all enemies cuffed made me realize there are more issues than I was aware.

If I say "Bang and Enter" they do that, but afterwards I have sometimes 4-6 suspects sitting on the ground and the squad is either still sweeping or standing at some points and not arresting anyone.
Then I issue commands to arrest some and sometimes they just stand there and dont do anything.
Sometimes I move on and was not aware that they just follow without issue the command and we got attacked from behind.
That AI issue was a nightmare in the first room of the Bank Mission!

And for the love of me, fix the AI throwing grenades. These are trained elite police men and I cant count how often nades were lobbed at my feet, at door frames, etc. These guys cant throw things in rooms reliably.
Can you please write a code that this command is working and not a gamble?

[shut shadow]

I would love having baclava finally in the game. Like the echo characters in multiplayer

[polar chasm]

Hej team.

Another Feedback round.
I play the game from the start and like it a lot.
But I really hope that the next update wont be content, but Quality/Health.

The achievements are tedious and not working. So either we need crystal clear parameters for it or idk whats missing. They should be fun. And not frustrating.
Squad AI really needs work.
I commanded them half the day. They often dont execute commands, get stuck in animation, then get killed, because they are stuck and dont fight back, grenades are luck, etc.
You surely know it.

And please recheck old animations. Its nitpicky, but its immersion breaking, that one shotgun has that weird reload, where the hand magically produces shells and not reaching to the belt, or so.
And front grips should be used. Why put them on, when the hand reaches elsewhere? New attachments get used, so I guess its a habit on not rechecking older things.
I really hope the game gets more polish.

[south osprey]

I'm a huge fan of your video game Ready or Not, and I had an idea for a new map set in an airport where there are hostage situations, etc. Perhaps also a grounded plane with a group of terrorists on board, where people are being held hostage, and they would move from the airport to the terminal to get back on the plane.

I hope you'll have some time to read my idea.

[dim heart]

Hello! I would like to express my sincere gratitude for your work on Ready or Not. I have a quick question: would it be possible to make the angled sight available for all weapons? My favorite weapon, in particular, is the MK18; it would be really cool to be able to use the angled sight on that one as well. Thank you so much for your fantastic work on Ready or Not.

[uneven flicker]

Dear Development Team,

I would like to share some points regarding the current state of the game, as I see great potential, but many mechanics currently feel more frustrating than tactical.

A small suggestion beforehand: Take more inspiration from the SWAT series and try to make the game more realistic and detailed overall. The focus should be on believable tactics, understandable AI, and fair mechanics – not on giving opponents artificial or unrealistic advantages.

Currently, there are several issues that negatively impact the gameplay experience:

You can walk through civilians, but not properly past teammates. This feels technically inconsistent.

Light sources from teammates sometimes shine through walls.

Civilians often react illogically or too passively. Features like sending hostages/civilians away or restraining them with cable ties or tape would add more tactical depth.

The shield currently offers more disadvantages than advantages:

For example, you can't drop a light stick while wearing the shield.

The NPC AI also desperately needs improvement. Currently, NPCs often simply do what they want, rarely react in a logical way, or completely ignore situations. The developers could take inspiration from games like SWAT or Payday, where AI and team behavior are significantly more believable.

The behavior of the enemies is particularly striking: Even on the easiest difficulty setting, enemies sometimes don't surrender at all – even after being shot, tackled with the shield, and yelled at. This feels neither realistic nor fair.

In addition, the lighting and shadows are often unbalanced. Some areas are extremely dark, while others are overly bright, making enemies sometimes barely visible.

The visibility of team members should also be improved:

Make names clearer and permanently visible, or

Make skins/equipment more easily distinguishable.

The behavior of team members should also be improved:

Make names more clearly and permanently visible, or

Make skins/equipment more easily distinguishable.

The behavior of the enemies is also problematic. Another example of questionable mission design is the "Relapse" mission: How are you supposed to capture the target alive when they're already holding a gun to a hostage's head?

According to realistic operational protocols, such a person would be immediately eliminated to protect the hostage. If you don't do this in the game, the hostage dies—yet you're still expected to capture the perpetrator alive. This doesn't feel like a tactical challenge; it's simply contradictory and frustrating.

I hope this feedback is taken seriously, because the game has a lot of potential. Currently, however, it lacks a more consistent balance between realism, gameplay, and believable AI.

Sincerely,
Mario

Translated with Google Translate

[viscid nymph]

been playing Ready or Not a lot and just wanted to drop a quick suggestion.

it’d be really dope to see more in depth weapon customization in the future, like more control over attachment placement on rails, plus a wider selection of optics, attachments, and rifles (like the Noveske N4).

the game already has a super solid realistic/tactical feel, so deeper customization would just make loadouts feel even more personal and immersive.

keep up the great work fr 👍

[grave mortar]

Suggestion: Allow Red Dot Sights on Offset Mounts

Currently, weapons that support offset optics can only use offset iron sights. I would like to suggest allowing compact red dot sights to be mounted on offset rails as well.

This would provide a practical solution for designated marksman and long-range weapon setups. For example, when using a high-magnification optic (such as a 12x scope), transitioning to a side-mounted red dot is significantly faster than switching to a sidearm when engaging targets at close or medium range.

Many real-world rifles are configured with offset red dot sights specifically for this purpose. The feature would improve both realism and weapon customization while giving players more flexibility without affecting game balance.

A good example would be maps with large open areas, where players may need both long-range precision and rapid close-range target engagement during the same mission.

Thank you for your consideration.

[wheat dove]

A New America:

It would be neat if the MLO AI didn't use the VIP you're not supposed to shoot as a meatshield and shoot through them with impunity like in screenshot: #🎨ron-screenshots-and-art message

Thanks

[loud viper]

1. The taser and raider x p320 should get moved to the pistol category.

2. Also the Ak47 should get a more recoil reduction. I believe we missed that part of the update.

3. would it be too much for us to customize our own weapon of choice? Alongside one or two LMGs just to add more fun factor to the game.

4, Buff the ammo capacity for the Trpl pistol. 6 rounds isn't enough. Maybe 12-16. It seems unnecessary to use when utilizing the weapon unless as a primary.

5. Def increase the ammo capacity for the TPL smg. 12 rounds isn't enough either. 16-25 sounds more fair to the non lethal runs.

6. Maybe a shotgun pistol to spice up our arsenal too.

These are just ideas many players and I thought of. Not expecting these things to happen til the future

[velvet junco]

Heya I hope the devs see this but I was hoping that you guys could add photo mode to the console versions because I’ve been really wanting to take some cool shots. I will be really happy if the devs can do that

[wicked folio]

suspects sometimes behave like AI aimbots,
while the player gets artificial stress penalties.

A more realistic system would make everyone affected by fear, recoil, adrenaline, pain, surprise, and training level — including suspects.

Better Combat Realism

Suspect Accuracy System

Instead of “difficulty = accuracy boost,” suspects should have:

Skill levels
Fear states
Fatigue
Drug/alcohol impairment
Training background
Injury effects

Example suspect profiles:

Gang member → aggressive but poor trigger discipline
Military veteran → controlled and dangerous
Drug addict → erratic firing
Teenager → panic fire and surrender likelihood
Cartel enforcer → tactical movement and ambushes

Suppression & Fear

Gunfire should affect suspects too:

Flinching
Blind firing
Loss of accuracy
Auditory exclusion
Hesitation after flashbangs
Panic movement

A suspect under pressure shouldn’t laser-beam headshots through smoke.

Structural Destruction

Instead of scripted breach points:

Drywall penetrable
Thin walls chargeable
Different materials react differently
Concrete blocks explosive penetration

Imagine:

Intel says hostage is in bedroom
Team plants directional charge on exterior wall
Simultaneous breach from multiple angles

That becomes true tactical planning.

Negotiation System

This could become the signature mechanic.

Most games treat hostage-taking as:
“enemy grabs civilian = instant headshot puzzle.”

Realistically, hostage-taking is about:

Escape
Demands
Time
Bargaining
Media attention
Survival

Dynamic Negotiation

You could:

Establish phone contact
Send negotiator
Cut power
Offer concessions
Delay assault
Use family members
Trade food/medical aid
Manipulate suspect psychology

Suspect Motivation System

Every suspect has:

Fear threshold
Ideology
Desperation
Intelligence
Ego
Emotional attachment

Example:
A desperate father in a domestic barricade reacts differently than a terrorist cell leader.

[exotic perch]

Please look into a digital deluxe upgrade on ps5 for the standard edition

[raven geyser]

Hello I love your game Ready or Not! I’ve been having a lot of fun by myself and with my friends. I hope we get more DLC. Maybe a new mode? Like a type of survival, in different scenarios the squad gets surrounded by a large terrorist group.

Cosmic additions:

• Realistic Camos to guns
• add multicam black camo to the following items. Alto Maritime shoes, Rooster (FDT) gloves, Atlas pro pants and a multicam black balaclava mask
• Uniform patches that be placed on the helmets, chest plates and sleeves

I appreciate your hard work and dedication, please continue to support this game!

#multicamblack 💚🖤

[dim heart]

Hello VOID Team, I would like to sincerely thank you for your fantastic and hard work on Ready or Not. I would like to make a few suggestions—may I?

It would be cool if, within the settings under "Accessibility," there were an option to make the SWAT team invulnerable and grant them infinite ammunition.

Perhaps for the player themselves as well:

Infinite health and infinite ammunition.

This would allow the player to carry more equipment.

P.S. Regarding my suggestion for the "Accessibility" section: it would be great if you could integrate toggle switches to enable and disable these functions.

You are all doing a fantastic job—please keep it up!

[misty garnet]

First of all, thank you for creating such a great game. I love the incredible attention to detail and the tactical depth you've built into the game. Im having a blast with it.

As a female player and content creator, I wanted to submit a constructive suggestion for future updates: the addition of at least one playable female SWAT officer, complete with dedicated female voice acting.

Since the game heavily prioritizes realism and authentic law enforcement procedures, reflecting the real-world diversity of modern tactical units would be a fantastic step forward. Real-world SWAT and federal tactical teams do include women. Adding this representation would deeply enhance immersion....not just for female players and creators like myself who want to represent accurately in content, but for the entire community looking for an authentic tactical experience.

Even starting with a single voice pack and character model would mean a lot and add great variety to the tactical roster.

Best regards,
/ SheDevil

For the supporter edition This post (#announcements message) says they are the same. However the website says that you get the Frist expansion, soundtrack, and your name in the game credits. On the steam DLC page it doesn't seem to indicate that you will get those perks. The Steam listing seems to only have the skins; basically the FBI HRT pack. Will this be addressed or is the steam version different than the website one?

#announcements message

[sharp inlet]

i have a question
are they sending the keys only for supporter edition or are they doing the same for the standar edition Buyers
and are standar edition buyers able to play the eraly acces?
becouse i bought the Standar edition.

[ember badger]

They're in the process of sending keys for standard edition, just wait.

[uneven tree]

How do we get the supporter discord if we buy the supporter edition on steam?

[sharp inlet]

alright thx so much !

[orchid vapor]

Keys should have been delivered prior to opening the flood gates. This is burning your credibility with long-term supporters. Bad move Cotton.

[safe hamlet]

TOC should send you a form requesting proof.

[unreal wagon]

Hello, fast reload and reload seemed to not be working the way they should be, fast reload should drop the mag while standard reload keep it, it's actually doing the opposite for me

[uncut crest]

are we allowed to send invites to the NDA server?

[rustic basalt]

So I bought the supporters for a friend, sent it to him. He tried to hit accept and it said insufficient privledge and im unsure how to go from here

[broken frost]

xsolla and babka are pretty much two of the worst companies I have ever had to do any work with. This pre-order experience has been atrocious from my end.

[weak niche]

I just wanna voip yell at bad guys to show me their hands

[rustic basalt]

So i pre ordered the original game for 40$....if i want to upgrade its 80 more...but on steam its 80 flat

[sharp crag]

How do I get the game I preordered it

[rustic basalt]

They are emailing tickets, if you have normal edition just wait for your ticket to go through, I believe they are sending them manually

[sharp crag]

Can I upgrade to the supporters addition?

[woeful wigeon]

Perhaps add a School mission (I get it if you don’t want to tho)

[rustic basalt]

Yeah you can, through official website or if you go to your old emails when you bought it they sent another email above your receipt to upgrade

[faint gate]

I downloaded the 16gb update, let it verify. Now when it goes to install steam pauses the update. I've already done this twice.

[safe hamlet]

hey people, I've already asked this a few months ago, but is there any chance that EOS can get removed from the current version of the game? I understand that it's probably there for crossplay with the (saldy inevitable) upcoming "alternate store" version, but I'd just like to give those people as little data as possible

in case it's a bit too much to ask, is there any chance for a separate start-up version with\without EOS-enabled crossplay? Titan Quest devs have added such an option with the most recent expansion, so I'm just wondering if that's a possibility for RoN

[hollow oracle]

I miss a Radio ingame to talk with people over distance. The Squad/Team/local chat is nice but theres no immersion.

[latent pelican]

How do you join Friends, all we're seeing is Lobby 100% and black screen?

[real horizon]

school map is confirmed

[woeful wigeon]

?

[wise vector]

Does the flashlight on the underbarrel come on automatically?

[rocky harness]

Gib me my key

[ember badger]

equip it via gun table in the locker room or shooting range

[final ore]

Hi is the level editor available alreay?

[spring magnet]

My only feedback would be to be able to walk a LITTLE faster

[scenic portal]

@polar cove The Front Iron Sight Of M4A1 Should be removeable i think it blocks the optic sight honestly.

[hallow trout]

you can walk faster if you go into low ready

[ionic moss]

Vr?

[uncut crest]

No VR but check out 'crunch element' its sort of like this

[tranquil nexus]

the regional pricing in chile is off by a lot and is wrong, you have to pay 67.71 usd for standar edition but for supporter edition you pay 53.19 usd so the supporter is cheaper

[flint bobcat]

From the videos, seems like a lot of characters are similar looking and animations are kinda borked as they have "slidey feet" when they turn around. Will this be corrected?

[vivid shuttle]

Woodland housing map near a lake maybe with Hostage or barricaded suspect calls

Office building map

Police Station map, possibly a station siege

[reef viper]

Please implement a scroll wheel option for switching between guns/grenades/equipment instead of having to press keys

[tender wharf]

It would be nice to add more attachments to the weapons, as well as edit other AI player's weapon specs. It would also be nice to incorporate a low/high ready weapon animation. Also, add toggle run instead of walk please. Also, it would be nice to soft press the flashlight on/off instead of toggle it on/off.

[tender wharf]

Also have suspect react to mace effecf

[vernal sigil]

Can we get a proper format to #🔎looking-for-players & more voice channels

[supple ferry]

Game has a stuttering problem. The randoms I’ve played with agree

[safe hamlet]

ability to go back to lobby instead of spectating

[empty valley]

Great game so far but it would be nice to skip right to the score at the end of each mission, If it isn't already in it

[vast prairie]

Might have already been asked but can there be an audio option to turn down the announcers voice. It often covers up teammates callouts

[warm agate]

Not sure if it would fit but a floor plan that just shows rooms that have been entered and not entered.

[tribal coral]

this is incredibly oddly specific but I remember this game touting how realistic the death animations were. It would be cool if AI reacted appropriately depending on where they are shot. I've had a lot of AI gurgle when shot in the legs or abdomen which is odd and this guy screaming when shot in the head

[bright berry]

Might be a separate issue but I bought 2 keys, one for me an one for a poor friend and only received one key

[faint gate]

The fact that suspects have infinite ammo is kookie

[supple ferry]

Only point I’m really gonna disagree with here is the shooting. I like it. It feels difficult and rewarding and intense in a gunfight. As for the other complaints I agree, but I also am hopeful that they add more mechanics in the future

[empty valley]

I understand why they didn't add one (yet maybe) since you are a swat officer with probably 50+ lbs of gear so running might be hard. But if you are in a gun fight irl your adrenalin would be pumping and you'd probably be able to sprint out the way, also to run after a person that is running away from you would be nice to

But who knows it's only beta right now, still got probably a half a year till full release, then hopefully will last 20 times as long

[wary silo]

im a little disapointed that the arsenal isent as big as swat 4 sef

[red chasm]

Hi, after my first mission I have a little bit of feedback although I'm sure you're aware of these things already. first off audio is amazing, especially C2 and flashbangs/stingers. visuals are great but maybe the flashlight ambient lighting could use some work - when panning across a wall the light seems to look almost 2d. friendly AI animations could be a little smoother - otherwise what an amazing experience! have been waiting years for somebody to have another go at this genre and you guys have really done a great job so far. keep it up! very happy customer here 🙂

post above knows more than me about real weapon lights but my issue was more with how the beam interacts with a flat wall (at an angle it's slightly more obvious)

[crimson imp]

When defusing the bomb there should be a puzzle so it's a bit harder rather than just clipping noises and an animation

[blissful nexus]

Only 2.2 hours into the game so far. The one glaring thing I see so far that I think needs tweaking is the civilian kill penalty, especially on active shooter missions. The team score should not get penalized for the suspects murdering civilians, that's the whole reason it's called an active shooter. The only time a penalty should be issued for a civilian kill is 1. you or your team kill a civilian, 2. you kill a hostage while trying to kill the shooter, or 3. you let a suspect kill a hostage when you have the ability to stop the threat. A penalty should not be issued for the team especially if they civilian(s) were dead prior to arrival.

[primal marsh]

me needs freelook please .

[zealous hemlock]

Doesn't the description note only able to use pistol with ballistic shields? Could be bug, not sure

[leaden ruin]

the lighting in the gas station mission looks unnaturally green

[tidal hinge]

So far I haven't been disappointed with the game and it does a good job replicating the magic of swat 4. However, there are some faults I noticed on my initial playthrough.

1. Lack of weapon information: It's hard to tell what weapons perform better in certain situations. A rate of fire, damage, penetration, overall dps, spread, and recoil would all be good information. This extends to weapon Attachments as well. Also it would be good to be able to chose between bullet types such as fmj or hollow points.

2. Lack of utility information: Alot of us know what the opwand does but videos and tutorials for the player demonstrating the need for these tools would be helpful for new players.

3. A better briefing system before the round where we can see the layout of the map and pick an entry point.

4. Dynamic ai: I know in real life someone can be shot and still move due to adrenaline but this should not be the norm and if im shooting someone who's running they should at least stumble a little. I also don't know if there are hostages that secretly have weapons but that would be pretty cool

5. Better maneuverability. It would be nice to sprint or run in a gun fight since it's an option the ai has.

6. Unnecessary point reductions: for example I used the wand only to find a flash bang trap on the other side of the door. Since it was on the other side we set a charge and ignited it from far away as to not disorientate ourselves. Then entered however we still got minus points for setting off the trap even though we where left unaffected.

7. Customization: though it is an early access build it would be nice to see better character customization in the face and outfits

8. Moving hostages: let us move hostages out of the way.

9. Interaction with armories: it doesn't make much sense that you need to go to 3 different stations for customization one for gadgets and weapons, one for character customization, and one for Attachments. It should just be one station.

[zealous hemlock]

Right now you move hostages the same as in Swat 4.,.. By bumping into them, did you mean callouts to get them to go to another room, etc.?

[junior olive]

There needs to be a way to upgrade your base edition on steam to the Supporters edition.

I didn't realise that was the upgrade. For that price I assumed it was the base game + supporter items in one package. Not the supporter price on-top of the base game. 😬

[wide topaz]

In the reveal trailer there was a snip of a school. There will most likely be a school mission. Along with modding support there will for sure be loads of very dark and brutal missions that await us.

[zealous hemlock]

Yes

[leaden ruin]

would be cool to have: 1) Realistic bullet damage/injuries to body/limbs. 2) Non-lethal shots to specific body parts will make them react accordingly (i.e. grab injured arm, limp away, etc.). 3) more realistic looking blood. currently blood looks like paint.

[wide topaz]

Gore and such is already in the works and is planned for the future. Idk about bullet damage and reactions and such but I can imagine that's not far off and probably either being discussed or already in the works.

[zealous hemlock]

They added in limb physics so when you shoot enemies react just recently.

[leaden ruin]

Sweet.

[wide topaz]

In one of the older builds there was a concept gore system put in and it looked pretty cool from what I've seen. Obviously it was taken out in the more recent builds but it's 100% being worked on.

[leaden ruin]

Feedback: Add HDR support.

[chilly panther]

Question to developers:
When will Russian language support be implemented? Many options and tips when setting up controls are not always clear.

[safe hamlet]

Feedback: Pls remove the Green Filter,It makes me dizzy

[wary silo]

i disconnect from host alot for some reason

[leaden ruin]

Yes, especially in that gas station map

[safe hamlet]

And the main menu

[astral widget]

My only feedback so far is the suspects are almost to good with their guns they give me more trained terrorists vibes than criminals and their reaction times are on par with the military in some cases

[paper hill]

i think one of the missions is glitched i spent 15 minutes walking around the gas station after clearing active shooters and i couldn't find any civilians to detain despite the game saying there's people to detain

[karmic shoal]

Just wanted to say, devs done great job with the game, finally after long time a game to revive the genre of swat games, which I enjoyed playing when I was young.

[leaden ruin]

Muzzle flashes are strangely red in color

[paper hill]

for being in alpha this is super good! the only immediately fixable things i can think of is maybe having the flashlights be a bit brighter, and tone down the AI so they don’t 180 no scope me in engagements. other than that it’s great! its like i’m playing SWAT 4 for the first time again

[soft egret]

Theres Only one Downside that I do not like, Its the Fact that Suspects have instant kill aim, Yes Instant Kill Aim, I literally peeked into a door and immediately died, Despite the fact I was wearing the Super helmet and Super Armor thats suppose to protect you and to prevent this type of dying from happening and it still happened. And Weird as hell times where the AI literally strafes and shoots at you and theres nothing you can do but Die because they are super fast, And Tone down the Pistol AI their Aim is insane, I watched one chick with a Pistol Wipe out my entire team 3 times on the Meth lab map from the 2nd Floor window.

[chilly panther]

On the first day of the launch of the game, the question is often asked: which API to choose: DX11 or DX12.
I warned you - you had to use the Vulkan API.
It has full DX12_1 functionality and handles modern CPUs very well (multiple threads) and balances the load between GPU / CPU / RAM. You have decided to support two APIs. This is a headache for developers.

[leaden ruin]

Feedback on flashlights: allow suspects/hostages to be blinded by flashlights, and have them react by shielding their eyes with their hands or something

[spiral delta]

Have a button for the training course reset in the main lobby area. I ran through it once and wanted to do it again to get the feel of it but can't find anywhere to do it. When i say reset i don't mean change the whole course but replace the doors back to their original closed state.

[cedar berry]

Please add loadouts, and/or a way to change weapon/optics without having to walk around slowly in the lobby. 😄

[eternal zinc]

Feedback on difficulty/AI: The enemy AI has way too insane aim/reflexes for folks newer to this genre. Love the intensity, my friends don't love getting snap-aimed and instakilled through a crack.

[leaden ruin]

When ADS, possible for the reticule not to sway?

[gray flame]

Playing solo: Any way to make restart timer nothing? hell even for multiplayer.. its a restart. no point in waiting for a timer. not like you're waiting for people to be ready to retry. like you're in an intermission window.

[midnight magnet]

Greetings, feedback from now on will be submitted by the following (this is just an example, credit to hunter):
[Frisbee]
Gas station not stingy enough about handing out frisbees.
I was most delighted to see the Tangerine Dreamer "Buy 3 and get a free frisbee" deal, but personally I believe to more accurately depict the socioeconomic dynamics the game is trying to portray, this offer should should be increased to "Buy 4 and get a free frisbee" or even "Buy 5 and get a free frisbee". Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.

[calm coral]

Would love to see customizable missions and ability to add/remove types of enemies. Also ability to disable mines because mirror gunning every door is a joke

[ashen oxide]

Would be really nice if we get a before mission breefing like we had in SWAT 4

[vapid kettle]

It is a nice game but i got some feedback,

1. When your team is down, you need to do everything alone? Maybe you can add e respawn at the SWAT vehicle where you need to go, then you can respawn your teammates?

2. Maybe add a thing in the escape menu, that you can extract and stop with the missie and that you get still XP. Now you don't get any XP when you click on stop.

[unborn flame]

Guys are there any floorplans for those missions?

[plain adder]

+1 to customizable missions and turn off traps (how likely is it that criminals are setting up grenade traps in a gas station robbery?)

[chilly panther]

Is your message feedback? Let's go on topic.

[safe hamlet]

Flashlight desperately needs improvement, right now its about as useful as the one in Half Life 1998

Also PLEASE allow us to switch regions, EU can be really frustrating cause people dont speak english or communicate. A server browser would also fix this

Really like the game. Great work! I have one point that id like to give feedback on => Some suspects are running directly to you with a gun. That seems kinda odd to me. I dont think in real life someone just runs into police arms with a gun equipped. I would like to see them faking to cooperate and than trying to shot you. That seems more realistic in my eyes than trying to run through the swat team with a weapon in the hand.

[crude yarrow]

AI reflexes/accuracy needs tweaking

As other have pointed out many times already, the main way the game can improve is by tweaking the AI.
Suspects have very quick reflexes, and are extremely accurate in their shots. Their reactions to unforeseen situations is on par with military trained operators, and not very realistic for a random civilian with a gun.

When suspects go from idel to agressive, very often the shooting starts before the animation is even over, making it hard to drop them before they open fire.

[steep veldt]

Sorry if these are suggested already, but here are things what I find it to be improved.

[Commanding Menu]
An option to order AI to deploy door wedges on door
An option to order AI to deploy battering ram on door
An option to hold mouse wheel button for opening command menu besides toggle
[Single Player]
A function that pauses the game when pressing ESC in singleplayer games
[AI]
Balance Enemy behaviour AI; they shoot and kill me(if not injuring me) instantly on sight before I even yell at them to comply.(https://youtu.be/LQHcsxw29x8?t=236)
Commanding menu is bugged. Sometimes the other element of my team answers to me when I am ordering to blue, especially when ordering an element to cover and regroup to the other.(https://youtu.be/7XSXmB6h4yo?t=213)
There's a certain point where Team AI stucked and can't follow me further.(https://youtu.be/Dk3AnRAQMu8?t=232)

[pseudo agate]

Hello. I pre-ordered the standard edition of the game to get access to the open beta. When will I receive the activation key to access the game on Steam?

Thank you.

[safe hamlet]

this channel is for feedback, but you will get your key when xsolla sends it out. they're having loads of issues and many people are still waiting. if i were you i would request a refund and just buy it on steam

[bitter pumice]

this has to one of the best games out there i love it its great it needs some polishing and all maybe more guns and more ways to costomize and many more stuff but im having a great time rn

[safe hamlet]

Please add a kick function, its annoying when people join who dont talk

[fading olive]

In the settings, the reload and fast reload keybinds are inverted. So if I want to reload normally without dropping my mag, I need to bind the fast reload key.

[bitter pumice]

I love the UI please dont change to much it look great

[leaden ruin]

Please increase the ADS speed

[bitter pumice]

we really need more maps and also the school shooting mission

[silent trail]

Please consider adding the game to geforce now so that those of us with weaker pcs can play the game too.

[full lava]

9mm goes straight through walls, which is fair and valid, no complaints there...much.

A option to choose what kind of rounds you can actually use would be nice. ie. AP, HP etc etc

[ornate depot]

I thought this was already the case?

[steep veldt]

Yep. It is

[cedar berry]

hold for check, double tap is tacticool, and tap for normal reload

[safe hamlet]

Clutter the maps
Some maps like the gas station seem a bit bland due to a lack of believable clutter. If you remember from SWAT 4, the maps were grimy and disgusting as hell. On the restaurant map there was rotten food, cans and small props everywhere.

[tidal hinge]

Yes that's what I meant

[silver spoke]

A possibility to create your own maps + steam workshop

[unborn osprey]

SDK is already planned for sometime next year, if you're already skilled enough in maps or mods you can already do work

[winter maple]

How use shield flashlight?

[unborn osprey]

its not setup to work yet,you could try pistol with flashlight for a temp fix

[winter maple]

Thx 🙂 i broke my keyboard when i try find key)

[tight isle]

Right from the get go, I would like to say that all these years of waiting has been worth it. The gunplay and physics of the firearms, absolutely impeccable, the devs have really done an amazing job.

[mighty hare]

Not sure if this is possible, but please please improve UltraWide support. The game is currently using Vertical Negative, which means it cuts the top and bottom of the display to give and stretches the rest to fit the 21:9 resolution instead of simply showing you more on the sides.

[ionic crown]

need some small maps

[ivory halo]

I dont get my Key

[ionic crown]

refund and buy on steam @ivory halo

[ivory halo]

Where can I get a refund?

[chilly panther]

You're fucking tired of it. This section does not focus on key issues and problems. Feedback from the developers goes here! Specific suggestions and wishes. Are you dumb?
