Attention Officers,

This patch focuses on addressing online authentication connectivity and achievement issues that some players have been experiencing. A huge thank you to everyone who made bug reports, especially on our official Ready or Not Bug Reports forum channel, which helped us identify some of the root causes. We are continuing to track and address further bugs for future patches.

Please check our official Discord for an updated list of some known issues in the #known-issues-and-fixes channel.

Patch Day General FAQ:

Q: ‘My game mods broke on PC with this update, why did that happen?’

A: When Ready or Not or games in general release updates to the game, the files for the game in areas related to new game content or fixes then changes. If mods were using the old files to function that have since changed to new files, those mods will likely need to update in order to work properly with the new version of the game’s files.

Ready or Not Modding Update Tips: Community Resources

Q: ‘Why does a patch download initially seem frustratingly large in data/gigabytes, even when the game doesn’t actually take up that much more storage when the download finishes’

A: Game service platforms such as Steam etc. may update games by overwriting the game's files with the new files to replace it. For example, this means an update download that initially shows 6GB during the download may actually only expand the game by 1GB in size, since it is largely just overwriting old game files for the other 5GB of data.

Q: ‘Why does a patch take so long to download despite my fast internet’

A: Other routine checks that a game service platform does to confirm game file integrity on the local storage device (e.g. your hard drive such as an HDD or SSD) during a patch download can extend the perceived download size/time.

Q: ‘Why didn’t my game update yet on my console platform?'

A: Console platforms do not necessarily support auto-updates, so you may have to trigger the update manually within your game library with an internet connection.

Thank you for all your support!

Attention Officers,

With the release of Boiling Point, all of us at VOID Interactive have thoroughly enjoyed seeing you gear up and deploy into this next chapter of Ready or Not. The reactions, the intensity, and seeing you experience the most tactical suspects Los Sueños has to offer have all been amazing.

While we're thrilled to have Boiling Point out to the public, we’ve also been working to address some of the issues we’ve observed since launch. We’ve tackled performance issues, crashes, lighting issues, and more.

Attention Officers,

The Dark Waters Release is upon us, and with it comes plenty of changes for free with the base game. You can now buy the Dark Waters DLC on Steam (https://store.steampowered.com/app/3174120/Ready_or_Not_Dark_Waters/). Below is the changelog for Dark Waters, covering free changes to the base game, those exclusive to the DLC, those related to the DLC.

If you already own and have activated the Supporter Edition, the Dark Waters DLC is now included for free in your library.

The majority of the Dark Water Release content is available for free in some manner and included as part of the general game update. Here's a quick outline of how it works:

**

• DLC weapons: Free for all players

• DLC maps: Free in multiplayer if the lobby host owns the DLC

• DLC cosmetics: DLC purchase needed

** Within the changelog "Base game update changes" refers to the general changes that will be included for everyone as part of the base game and are not related to the DLC. "DLC Exclusive changes" refers to the handful of changes that will only be accessible via DLC ownership. Finally, "DLC Related changes" refers to changes that are part of the DLC, but will be accessible to everyone in some manner.

Important Note: Until mod owners have updated their versions to match the game, if you have mods installed you should select the “launch in safe mode” option for Ready or Not to prevent crashes/conflicts that may occur with outdated mods.

Gameplay

AI

Base game update changes:

• New compliance/non-compliance behaviors and animations for suspects/civilians across all missions.

• Added new suspect AI loadout system across all missions which allows them to use sidearms, start with holstered/unholster weapons, melee weapons, and use attachments like flashlights or suppressors. The sort of weapons and attachments available to suspects are unique to each mission and type of suspect, with some randomization possible.

Dark Waters DLC Related changes:

Note: In future updates we want to try to include the below Dark Waters DLC Related AI features into the pre-existing missions where appropriate and feasible; for now we intentionally ended up not implementing these features to the 21 existing missions. This is because there was a lot of extra risk and resources required to properly implement these new features in such a widespread manner at once for the Dark Waters Release, which could have caused new issues or sacrificed other new features.

• Mission Event system on “Mirage at Sea” mission which allows the mission to switch from 'Barricaded Suspects' to 'Active Shooter' mid-mission depending on active gameplay conditions and orders from the key suspect.

• New suspect squad behaviors “Rally” and “Regroup” added for Dark Waters missions.

• Added physical weapon cache system on Dark Waters missions, which allows suspects equip weapons that they did not have at the start of the mission.

• Added a UH-60 AI-piloted helicopter on Dark Waters missions, which provides a thermal camera, radio call-outs, and a spotlight for locating suspects/civilians.

• Pre-restrained civilians system for “Leviathan” mission.
