About the Game:
Ready or Not is a tactical first-person shooter video game developed and published by Ireland-based VOID Interactive and released for Microsoft Windows. Ready or Not follows the operations of a police SWAT team in the fictional city of Los Sueños, California, US in the midst of a crime wave.
Note:
Ready or Not has some extremely dark missions. This game pushes the boundaries as to what can be in a game. From seeing the basement for the first time on Valley of the Dolls, to opening that shipping container on Hide and Seek; this game never fails to shock and disturb players. But Ends of the Earth hits in a different way. In all of the other missions we know the suspects we encounter are bad or in many cases straight up evil, and we as players have no problems with eliminating them. Ends of the Earth blurs the line between good and bad. The suspects in this mission are breaking the law, however they are doing it for the love of their family. It makes you have sympathy for them, something no other mission does.

when i first played this mission i didnt read the briefing so i was just doing self defense and doing my job. By the time i have killed around 3 hostiles i wanted to know my objective. So i was reading the briefing when i slowly slowly realize why they were doing this
the sons destroyed the family by involving themselves with cartel and criminal elements
@@cagneybillingsley2165 sad
That's how you play immersively as American police. 😂😂
@@Camromulus lmaooo
“i was just doing my job” 😂
"Let me talk to my sons, please..." that- it hit hard...
the sons destroyed the family by involving themselves with cartel and criminal elements
@@cagneybillingsley2165 a man with a set of skills turned to illicit means to try and keep his mother alive, its pitiful
@@TheMiniMiners911 for real mate, nobody wants to be forced to turn to a life of crime though you do what you do for your family...sadly' you'll pay the consequences for it....
@@cagneybillingsley2165 clearly you didnt read as to why they even turned to this life
@@cagneybillingsley2165fucking hedge fund kids and their pretty mansions wouldn’t understand hardship bc their life is perfect
I'm starting to think this games is called ready or not because no matter if you're ready or not this games about to dump the cold hard unfiltered truth on you.
I think it is.
alr bro
In that regard it's quite realistic. How do you plan for the unexpected? Eventually you're going to see things that will traumatize you. It's a noble career, but incredibly taxing. I think Ready Or Not reflects that very well unlike SWAT 4. SWAT 4 does some things better, but that's not one of them.
All stories have an ending.
@@VickiVampiressYT I like the trauma effects on the officers on your team. Depending on how a mission goes down, and if they survive, it will effect them in the next mission if you dont swap them out for refreshed officers.
I brought pepper guns specifically for this mission. There was no way I was gonna kill anyone in the house.
same man, same...
smokes and bean bags I aint no ATF fucboi
Ya I was guns blazing on every mission before, got to this one and equipped all my guys with pepper guns or beanbag shotguns. Felt good to complete it with no casualties......Then I was back to shooting first asking questions later lol
i blasted everyone with the gloccy
@@KANYE24bro 💀
I think it's kind of a cool idea to give off the message that even if all this tactical super cop stuff is badass and all, sometimes it's not always black and white. Some suspects choose to commit crimes due to the lack of choices society has for them. Especially in this mission. When I first did the mission, I didn't think too much of it, busted down the door, didn't leave a single one alive, enjoyed being a HRT operator kicking ass and putting down every threat. Until I decided to actually read the briefing, that was then I realized, jeez I really just executed a mother's child, let alone three or four of them in cold blood. They were just trying to fund for her medical care (through illegal reasons). It made me wonder you know, yea it's a game sure it's not that deep but it did made me question reality a tiny bit. I want and still do strive to serve as a "tactical cop" someday when I am much older, and there's no doubt that the current ones in service deal with this type of shit. thank you for coming to my TED Talk.
there are always choices, they are just much harder. do not try and ameliorate accountability from the individual
@@cagneybillingsley2165 that’s a fair point but still, it does make you wonder what can you do better as a LEO. Police and even SWAT or counter terrorism units like the HRT are there to help and save lives, not serve as just mere enforcers. But I completely get your point sure, they obviously should have made a more logical choice that won’t be illegal but how would we know that. Maybe they had a limited amount of choices right?
Idk man, I look around at all the expensive gym equipment and jewels they got and I'm like, "hm, maybe try selling that off BEFORE turning to pumping guns into low income neighborhoods and making orphans and more dead cops?"@@kakuja2977
Personal responsibility not a big concept in your book?
At which point do these boys accept responsibility for the things they've done?
@@B-26354 That's also fair, and yes they chose to dive into this type of life with pretty much no regrets. Could they have made a better choice, yes of course definitely no doubt. Personal responsibility is huge in my book but just so to reiterate, we are seeing through the lens of us being operators/tactical cops, we have no clue or probably even the chance to find out if the boys feel regretful as they commit their crime, you could argue that yea they deserve it. However I think it's quite nuanced, I would love to hear your perspective, because this topic is interesting. (If we are on the same page, otherwise you can reclarify for me). At the end of the day, we aren't executioners, to some extent. Yes if they open fire and actively try to kill us, and we (fictionally speaking) as operators could have families or loved ones to live for. Then yes, I would not hesitate and put them down as scum. There's a lot of...what's it called, grey areas if you know what I mean.
The one mission I rolled out tossing gas and beanbag guns.
That's my go to for every mission. I try to go for non-lethal whenever I can.
I like to read the briefings (still haven't finished the campaign, took a break after re-doing doolhouse twice) before choosing my loadouts and thankfully managed to get it fully done with less-than-lethal and no casualties. Still got that -50 for friendly fire because AI squad mate went to arrest a suspect who had a pepper spray cloud on them lmao
@@r1g0r_m0rt1s
Not the Doll House, of course.
@@r1g0r_m0rt1sif you beat the doll house like that you need to go back and go for maximum damage
I felt bad until they killed one of my AI teammates… then it got lethal real quick
😭😭😭😭
it got NONlethal?
As they say, a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do, crazy how shit like this really happens though
Not to be too serious, but I see it as a matter of, if the sons stop fighting they die. If SWAT stops fighting, they can turn around and go home. The government will continue to pursue these people mercilessly until they are captured or dead. The government agents sent in to raid them are not being pursued, they are doing a job. They can stop what they are doing at any time and go home.
@@Cagenado You can’t really go home when the people you are arresting basically prove that they are willing to hurt others to get what they want, if they do these guys will end up hurting someone else.
It's sad how stuff like this happens in real life. I experienced my family fall to ruin because of a situation like this subtracting the whole swat team thing.
oh damn im sorry dude
@@MegaTron7568 it happened when I was a kid, so I'm in a better place now
@@jayyang236hope you are doing well.
Why is it sad? Do you know how many NGuYen are on this world!? It is the biggast femaliy.
@@Puxi Because he had to watch his family fall to ruin and it doesn’t make a difference if his last name is nguyen or not.
Always non-lethal this one. They may go to jail, but there's always a chance for a better future.
And as a Vigilante minded i'm not agree.
@@strix501I'm don't think you know what you're saying.
its a game
@@jaydenplayz4062it’s not
@@jaydenplayz4062 highly inspired by real life events and similar location and cases .
The sound of the first contact/kill, with both the officer getting wounded (and, hopefully getting help or whatever) yet the other one dying (the suspect) really set the tone.
As a Mil-sim gamer I like to fuck around; however that doesn't mean we don't care for people.
Soldarius; this is my first time viewing your channel and with this being the first video, no excitement, no pleasure, no relief, just another sad story to tell.
You moved quick, and clean with your team gave them chances to surrender and acted more human than most I see these days; and to that I admire you; good hunting and here's to hoping another scenario like this doesn't have to go on the drawing board.
Edit: Yo thanks for 1k likes probably more than I'll ever get for subscribers lol.
P.S. I agree did go a little far into the rp on this speech I sound like a officer in a corny movie lol.

@@8eye694 didn't know that was a problem?
Well said.
@@8eye694 There are plenty of those in arma 3 who like to commit war crimes in game and kill in game civilians just for fun honestly dark humor war crime moments but that doesn't mean they're all sadistic and what not
@@chloetaylor2713lol I think Milsim players mostly don’t like this. I’m a milsim gamer myself but I don’t really find anything cool in killing unarmed people.
I love how utterly grim this game is, on a good day you're this instrument of justice who hasn't really prevented anything but at least stopped something from getting worse. This is one of those bad days, where you're just acting nakedly as an instrument of violence to perpetuate the state as is regardless of any underlying causes, still a sort of divine tool of retribution but that of the tragedy coming in as consequences towards those who dared fight against fate. On a good day you're a hero and on a bad day you're a janitor.
nice way to put it
The duality of law
They're still criminals. The hand of justice does not differentiate between the circumstances of criminals, only that they did do the crime.
@dovahkiin456 Law is not divine,it's man made. And there are a shit ton of things in law that could be better.
Cops are not some chivalric knights, they are just blind violent instruments of a deeply flawed system.
@@dovahkiin456 I agree. Police can't fix every issue in humanity, they can only do their job, which is to enforce the law and protect people from criminals. That's it. And, going through hardship can be a reason for immoral behavior, but it's never an excuse. The system can be improved, but on an individual level, we can choose to not sell our principles and morals

UA-camrs: this game is sad and brutally realistic
Playerbase: STOP RESISTING AREST
I've had cancer myself, I've seen how tough it is on friends and family. It really hurt my soul to use lethal force on these guys...
Well, I am glad you’re still here with us!
🎉
Also, congrats on beating cancer
(I wouldn’t dare use lethal on these guys).
There’s always a chance for a better future
@@TheonlythingIknowisbloodshed I tried to go beanbag and gas, but got killed in the attic every single time. Also, thank you for the kind words :D.
you can set your teamnates guns to non lethal too@@cr34t_
What would be harder on your friends and family is losing you. Be the amazing person you are!
Im glad you've beat the cancer, bro!
When i heared the briefing i tried to play as passive as I could without using the pepper guns (cuz i found the less lethal alternatives boring) i was able to arrest 2 sons while the other left me no choice
Not only is this hard hitting, but you can see a lot of hardwork has gone into making this! Great content chief! Keep this up and you’ll hit a 100K subs and more in no time!
Thank you, glad you liked it. I don’t have the time to upload super consistently but I always enjoy making videos like this.
This was... too real for me. Seeing the ab flexer outside and seeing the 3D printer setup... just all these little details in the house shows so much history of this family.
How come this has no comments? Its good quality content
It really made me shed a tear....
Great video. There’s so much detail that goes into the crafting of these scenarios that go beyond the “terrorist hunt” modes. It shows the harsh reality that law enforcement officers deal with , the consequences of people making bad choices , sometimes for noble reasons, and above else the grief and sadness families suffer. Great video
Yeah they're 2 different branches of 2 different dept.'s How would you know what CT is like?
The last time I had to move away from my m/kb.
Was Spec Ops: The Line.
After playing this level, I decide to take my parents to the Borneo island for a week long trip because I will never know whether my parents will be healthy til the day they passed on.
Thanks for the awesome content you put into making this video.
that's sweet man
It's one of those missions where you say, "Yeah, we're just doing our job, but these people should never have been placed in this situation."
I'm a very new streamer but man im here for your content. This was legit. Damn.
So glad I got all non lethal force points on this mission. It was stressful, but it seemed worth it.
this is an art form, you’ve done super well. Please keep honing these kinds of videos
Me before completing ready or not: wow Cool tactical shooter
Me after completing Ready or not: Sometimes this world is just THAT cruel
Sometimes... when you listen to the briefing. You have a little more mercy for the victims.
This is why you DON'T DO no knock raid. Enjoy your PTSD.
Is dirtying your soul worth the cabal bravado?
Its much worse than just the PTSD. Imagine if people were not forced into horrible decisions that led to criminal behaviors?
you can always spare them and go non-lethal, they will still end up in jail though sadly
As they should, they are still commiting crimes in the end.
They could turn state's evidence, get the hell out of LS and make a new life somewhere else
I always try to go non-lethal on this mission
The mother will die regardless
@@Amoogusshe might be able to get into some Medicaid plan or something due to her situation but this is also Suenos, everything sucks, and I doubt they didn’t already try every single legal option before the son decided to dabble in the world of drugs and criminals.
@@spartan8705I like to think that he used whatever insider knowledge he had of the gang to get certain players in the gang arrested in exchange for a plea or reduced sentencing. The thing is that he’s just another drug maker, not anyone high up in the gang structure so how much he’d he doing to help is kinda mixed. For all we know he’s just another meth peddler to the system and is going to be locked up for a long time whilst his mom slowly dies in a retirement home or hospital bed.
Well, shit...

Love how you made the video, nice job! Very Immersive.
That is why i love void interactive. The attention to detail is impressive. (Tho some gameplay elements still needs work, but with time)
This mission perfectly explains the world that Ready Or Not takes place in.
It does not exist, but it shows to us that it can exist, and it shows the reality of the world we live in.
This mission hits harder than any other, because this is unfortunately all they could have done to save their parents lives. This mission is perfect because it begs the question;
"What are you willing to do, to save your family?"
I was feeling compassionate at first when starting this level, but then I saw my AI team-mate getting shot to death and it quickly transcended into Doom Eternal.
Have to keep the boys alive👍
7:15 Damn.
I saw a video of a robber getting shot in the Neck on Reddit it looked pretty much like that …
@@45Gunner556what was su reddit called for that footage?

@@45Gunner556 thanks bro. Much appreciated
@@MilitaristTurkcu it’s on R/idiotswithguns … the Video is called Robbery suspects gets shot in the neck
saddest, eh, nah. it's sad but go look in the basement of the voll residence. look at the barrel pit. look at the clothing items and think what may be in those barrels. THAT is the saddest mission.
I agree with you, this mission is just different in the way that it’s the only one that you feel sympathy for the suspects.
@@soldarius1 or the hide n seek, with the container full of women
nah, other missions are very messed up, but this mission is the saddest one lore wise because it's more down to earth and hits closer to home. The kids are selling illegal guns just so they can pay for their mother's treatment, and now they die in front of their own parents. Voll is fucked up, but this is still the saddest mission.
@@soldarius1 Agreed, i read the breifing and couldn't bring myself to go lethal. brought a bean bag, 2 gases for the attic and flashes for everything else. always did by best to S clear it. could't really settle for less
it invokes more sympathy for the suspects ill give ya that. but i just disagree on it being the saddest. it put a rock in my gut but hide and seek put a boulder in it and voll tore my heart in 2. but ay, it's a game and some things resonate with different people more than others.@@kevinc.cucumber3697
This mission shows the misfortune of circumstance. They had no choice but to fund their mother’s treatment. (Via illegal means)
Yet despite all of that from what I noticed; the mother is the one who called 911; despite her withering state, maybe it’s because she wanted to do one last right thing.
We’ll never know. This world can be really dark and muddy at times, full of suffering, cruelty; and misfortune beyond compare.
I’m glad the game doesn’t stray away from these topics. These need to be discussed, thought over more often, and we should all strive to treat others like people. Fairly and amongst equals. (I’m not justifying or excusing their actions, it’s mere analogy.)
Ready Or Not In Twitter : NOOO You cant just be a game where you shoot and be real like
Ready or not In Reality : Well written game with actually making you feel like a Actual Officer.
This is the only mission I’ve never used anything other than less lethal
I used to want to become a badge. I get why they drink so much, why they need therapists, and why sometimes they “cross over willingly.”
After hearing the briefing at the station, I knew ther was no letal option I could take without feeling like an asshole, so immediately put together a non-lethal kit, unusual as every single last mission before almost took us to a breaking point, as a squad, but, more importantly, as humans. Los Sueños its a brutal world, and since our relocation at the new HQ, everyone had a survivalist mindset of ask quietly, instantly shoot and then ask again, this time loud (No one even flinched when we needed to shoot that streamer in the gut after resisting and pointing at us; him being an douche helped, but still). As a team leader, told my squad that they don't need to do the same if they don't want to, I would never put their lives at risk for something I believe, just knew that I couldn´t go through with it...
Thing is, no one could stand that brieff unscathed: for some, it hit close to home, for others, the situation remembered them too much of their own young selves; a family, locked out in this decaying system, desperately trying to save their mother, no matter the cost nor consequences... Everyone took orange guns, tasers, spray and nothing else, even Hightower changed his usual Supernova for bean bags on this one.
As we were leaving the station, we saw Chief on our way out, expecting some kind of chew off for this behavior and loadouts, due to his endorsment and usual requirement of more aggressive, stay safe loadouts and strategies. He only reminded us "It ain´t non-lethal, it is less-than lethal; try to aim low".
Luckily, I had the Umbrella Corp mod, so I felt this was pretty lore accurate to what we do
The saddest mission is volts house, if you realise what is in the basement...
What’s in the basement?
@@Fried_Snowbarrels in a pit with flies surrounding it, children’s clothes strung about. Basically; the body of kids are inside the barrels after those kids were probably subjected to abuse.
yeah that mission is fucking dark but this mission is just sad
@@AURI3N holy that’s dark
Would love a new ready or not lore/extra stuff channel to watch 👀
NGL this mission felt fucked up. I really went balls deep into playing with my AI squad (since its just SO MUCH better now) and started to actually listen to the mission briefs and not just run and gun each mission, and I knew they would obviouly shoot back once we got inside but i tried so hard to just get them to give up the first few times
I'm glad I did this mission completely non-lethal, didn't read the briefing but I do like to bring in as many as possible... well except for the Hand missions, or the trafficking missions.
I always do the mission with non-lethal weapons
Honestly most missions in this game made me feel sad, the game does a good job at showing that the perpetrators are often victims of something else in life and that's why they do crime.
Rarely felt good killing anyone with a few exceptions in this game unless I had to do it, ran non-lethal exclusively on this mission and the Carriers of The Vine but had to mix it up on other missions.
The Left Behind group and its related missions also didn't feel good when killing but it was too risky to do otherwise, but I always tried to minimize casualties.
Life ain't black and white, we live in shades of gray.
This music fits it perfectly, beautiful😢
could anyone tell me what song that is, please?
@@JulianHerbig Ready or Not OST - Ends of the Earth: Custom Ambient Mix by NightRye_
Thank you very much! :)
I didn‘t even realize it was based on the soundtrack bc I turned off the music shortly after getting the game.
What makes it worse in my opinion is that the mother called it in, which makes it worse because that is who they were trying to get the money for in the first place. It shows how the mother did not want her sons to get into that kind of crime, adding onto this is that throughout the map you can see pictures of the family, even the room where their mother was before she passed had a get well card. It shows how the family is connected, it gives the family an actual identity.
This is the only mission i went full non lethal.
I like how nuanced of a stance the game takes about being an officer. Situations like this are hard to watch. On the one hand, even if the family was forced into this, they still need to be brought to justice. Unfortunate circumstances don't excuse crimes of this calibre. But on the other, what does killing solve for the family here? I'm glad the game has non lethal options (or as someone pointed out below me: "Less than lethal.") so you don't have to approach situations with the intent to kill, and that can be just as effective as lethal options with the added benefit of not widowing families or making orphans.
Ready or Not is one hell of a game.
I- I used cs gas and ordered my ai team to clear with flashbang on that room....
When checking on the mission briefing with the tablet, I came to realize that I could've potentially killed her. I now take caution whenever I enter rooms in Every. Single. Mission.
I read/listen to the briefing before every mission to know what type of gear to equip my AI team with, as well as myself. Upon reading this, I put my whole team on beanbag/pepperball kit, and lead the team using non-lethals to ensure that nobody would die. This is one of the missions that makes me feel for the suspects, because in the world of Los Suenos, everyone is having their hand forced because of how the government and elites have a lack of care for the citizens living under them. This mission hurts.
I tried to go nonlethal the first time i played this, but they murked me. Then I got out my SA-58...
4:08 the body at the staircase is tweakin lol
Dude this mission hurt. I literally thought about it for a few nights after. Especially since I’m Pro 2A so I don’t even care about the crime they were breaking and then there’s the sympathy for why they started. We all ran less than lethal but 2 of the boys just didn’t give up. Was a sad mission man
they give you the cold, harsh and depressing truth every time, even the game title asks you if you are ready or not
Something in ready or not which hit with reality was 'Neon Jungle' I think it's called, seeing the bodies was normal, but seeing all the phones ringing with peoples loved ones reminded me that it's easy to lose count and neglect that each individual is someones son, daughter or sibling. Put real mass shootings into perspective.
Upon reading your description, I'd like to tell you that there are all kinds of people in the world wiht all kinds of similar and different opinions, be it good or evil.
The concept of good and evil are simple. It's just that people can be complicated.
Those who turn to a life of crime because of impending despair is no surprise.
It's just bound to hurt when it happens for better or worse.
Sad for sure. Nothing kills me more than Valley of the Dolls though. Especially when you find the basement
This reminds me of that time the local PD brought an APC to serve an eviction down the street and it turned into a 12 hour shootout. After dude died, it turned out the house was given to him by his recently passed away father but it got eminent domained and some random banker had bought the property for pennies on the dollar
I roleplay as the Combine in my game. The vocoders and gas masks made the operation so inhumane - like I was excisising some malignant tumor. I did my best to save everybody in that house, but civil disunity is a tough punishment...
I did this mission a couple days ago, I was able to get everyone to stand down but the youngest son… I didn’t realize who he was until after we completed the job
The one mission I run with non-lethals besides just a tazer. Just 3 dudes making machine guns to help their sick mother.
I first played with an ar and hollow points, surprisingly, not one person died, two body shots is surprisingly non-Lethal…
Thats the sole reason why i always read the briefing, for the first playthru of this mission i grabbed like 3 taser charges, i had probably 1 casualty thanks to npc teammates
I brought non-lethal for this mission, it made it harder of course but I feel like it was the better moral decision.
Haven't got to this mission but its stuff like this that makes me go for nonlethal first
Ready or not gameplay: BRO STOP SHOOTING CIVS (gets blown up by trap)
Ready or not lore:
These people were probably the least criminal of all Ready or Not. They’re just helping their parents Making machine guns shouldn’t be illegal.
Considering they were selling switches directly to criminals and had no problem shooting at LE, I don't see them as any less criminal than other adversaries
The Mindjot security probably are honestly, they didn't believe you were police and acted in presumed self defense
They had a more reasonable cause for the crime
That being said it’s still not reasonable enough since they
1. Selling to criminals
2. Shot at law enforcement (ready to kill)
Also tf u mean “making machines guns shoudnt be illegal”?
I was agreeing with you for everything else until you throw in a curveball with "making machine guns shouldn't be illegal?" You are insane 💀💀
yeah u should be locked up tf "Making machine guns shouldn’t be illegal"
@@matthias8161 Then try and lock me up. Don’t know why y’all are freaking out about simple fun switches. It’s already very unconstitutional that machine guns are heavily regulated. If you play Ready or Not then you should know how useless full auto is and it’s only use it to be fun and waste ammo.
I remember going into this mission thinking its going to be the easiest arrest of my life but when I breached the first door, all of the brothers were there, they were too aggressive that they barely care about the stun and gas.
I got shot in the leg, scared and panicking and I hailed marry the room with my benelli and ended all of them with just a single tube of 12 gauge.
I patched myself up and just sit there. I was so shocked, disappointed and horrified. It hit me hard apart from the fact that they are asian but they are just desperate dudes who reached the deep end and just tryning to survive. These people don't deserve the things I did.
I underestimate the risk and did more damage. I did more chaos than order.
Dude, it's a game lol
@@yellowsaurus4895 So are novels, they are just book. So are movies, they are just animated pictures. I don't get your point.
Broke down a door, neutralized a threat, sounds like any Tuesday for a SWAT officer that needs no reflection
This was the only mission where I forced my entire to go non-lethal. I didn’t want to kill a son in his own home while his dying mother watched.
A great example of an understandable reason, but not a right reason
Now this is how you do indirect storytelling.
in this mission I purposefully make sure to always not shoot even a single bullet
Definitely glad I handled this mission well first try. Ran w beanbag shotty and ordered the team to hold the exits outside. Cleared the house myself w no casualties. All due to reading the briefing beforehand, just wanted to make sure the mother doesn't lose her sons when they didn't deserve it.
Wanna know what's sadder? The fact that devs took a whole year of hiatus again lol.
It’s the only mission I did non-leathal first time playing the game. It just feels bad man.
this was sad but valley of dolls broke me ifykyk
please make more RoN videos! I love the cinematography.
Just dropped a new one
I just did this mission for the first time yesterday. I didn't really read the description of the mission, but when I heard everything the AI was saying I felt kinda bad. The suspects were talking about "Hey it's going to be alright.. Go check on mom." And then I found the old mother in the room with all the medical set-up.. Man I felt bad for having to raid that house. Especially when the mother asked, "Let me talk to my sons, please..."
This mission and valley of the dolls hit me hard
I played this mission with only non lethals, it just hit too deep I couldn't go in there with lethal weapons.
I basically just gassed them with CS and used a beanbag, worked like a charm lol. It's easier than it looks.
I even got my AI to sit at spawn whilst I soloed the house so they wouldnt interfere.
I always play this misson with non lethals. These boys don't need to die nor do they deserve to.
After I read the briefing, this was actually the first mission I “S’d” on my first try. Still felt bad that I had to use pepper balls around the old couple, but at least everyone lived.
They have a very sypmathetic reason for doing this, I agree. But all of my sympathy goes out the window the second they open fire on the police.
Nah, fuck the police
"Our job is not to create widows and orphans, but to bring order to the chaos"
I decided to go full non lethal on this mission after I read the briefing. Was definitely a challenge lol
This game was made NOT for entertainment, so expect every missions in-game real-life situation. Not sure how many of them are real though, since public censure also a thing.
this hits hard
Beyond simple stupidity, wouldn't it have made more sense for the boys to bolt the moment the first flash-bang went off, rather than get in a shoot-out with a SWAT team? Or is this a game programming limitation? Never played it myself, but I'd presume they'd have some kind of basic fleeing mechanic, since that is what many criminals (who are not hopped up on serious drugs) try to do when faced with heavily armed and prepared police. That seems especially likely in this case, since the boys did not exactly get into this by preference.
I never read the brief for this one so the intro made that shotgun run I did the first time significantly less badass looking back. At least I arrested one of them and it's possible one was incapacitated
"Try to bring them alive, but don't risk getting shot for it. They should know better."
wtf do I feel so bad each time I wanna play this map
7:19 the guy bleeding out in the attic was so sad
Their sons are dead, and everything is worse now.
I normally dont use any non lethal options when i have a option to use lethal weapons but after i read the briefing i immediatly switched to non lethal i dont know if its becuase i relate to their situation due to the fact my mother had cancer which she survived thankfully but theres something incredibly inhumane about killing the sons of a mother who is at her lowest.
this mission and the computer storage facility where the security guards dressed in white didnt know you were cops were the only missions i brought full non lethal for my ai friends too
First time in this mission I read the briefing and knew what was going on (that is what is suposed to be for). Equipped non-lethal weapons and went in praying for the best. I decided to take the risks. The result was the family aprehended and one masked guy shot dead in the kitchen. No elements injured.
EDIT: The problem of the AI is that they dont get the background of the situations. So for this one I decided to keep them in the back and do the clearing myself, knowing when to move back and just take some cover instead of shooting to kill.
This game is awesome in this aspect, the way it makes you be deep inside the situation. I love it.
Btw you can disable the hub with F3 or whatever is your assigned button
