Thread 714283819

I was just about to buy this game too…

I bet you weren't really just about to buy the game.
But yeah fuck them.

>>714283819 (OP)
What did they censor?

I don't mind the censorship, but I just cant play a game with that low score

>>714283819 (OP)
Did they ever fix the AI seeing you through fucking slits across the map or is it still garbage?

>>714283945
They removed the DEI

>695 negative reviews
Oh no! This will make the Ready Or Not devs revert the changes and lose out on tens of millions of dollars!

>>714283924
I was. Can I force it to never update?

>>714283945
From IGN:
>In a statement posted to Steam, VOID said it had to adjust levels of gore, nudity, violence, and the "mistreatment of children" ahead of the July 15 console release, and rather than "maintaining multiple versions with different assets and mechanics" that would "increase the likelihood of bugs," some aspects of the PC version have also been revised.
>"Throughout this console port process, we've done our utmost to only make changes when they are flagged as absolutely required by our first-party partners, and any changes aim to remain faithful to the original tonality of the game, so there is no reason to be alarmed," the development team insisted.

>>714284390
Gay

>>714284209
It's ok anon numbers are hard

>>714283945
They censor the nudity which is funny because only Japan got that hammer on them.
Now its western games turn.

>>714284390
>we're kinda shooting to make it so removing this content doesn't leave any gaping holes
>no negative reactions allowed

>>714283819 (OP)
The people making the game need money to survive(food, bills, shelter), so they're porting Ready Or Not to consoles, which will make them money to keep surviving. Unfortunately, Sony and Microsoft have stricter rules than Steam about nudity, gore, etcetera, so the developer has to abide by those. The reason the PC version is being censored is because of crossplay in multiplayer(both console and PC players need the same content in their games).

>>714283819 (OP)
I already knew they were faggot devs when they filled all their levels with AI gen'd posters.

>>714285179
>The reason the PC version is being censored is because of crossplay in multiplayer
That's the most retarded excuse they could've come up with? It doesn't work like that and nobody wants to play with consoleniggers anyway.

thats why you should never buy games

>>714284390
I don't see the problem. You people just want something to be mad about.

>>714283924
of course not
i wait till the games are 3€ so i'm sure i dont support censorship or removal of content

>>714285471
I know, but that's what the developer said, and the developer doesn't seem like a corporate censoring bootlicking company: https://steamcommunity.com/games/1144200/announcements/detail/526472884483260568

"2) If the in-game assets were not the same it would make crossplay unusable; the game content must be equal or basically equal for multiplayer to work. Different versions of assets affects multiplayer replication, which is the ability for the server to understand what’s happening in-game and host players in the same lobby/server."

>>714285179
The reason they are changing the PC version is because they are lazy

>>714283819 (OP)
There has to be some hidden reason for them doing this, the consoles have never had a problem with gore, hell, the last two Mortal Kombat games got a switch port

>>714284390
I didn't like the pedophilia stuff but I wouldn't want it removed, it's part of the job

incels humiliated again huh

>>714285886
/thread
lazy retards get punished, it's that simple

if you're too lazy to stick to your original vision and make the appropriate changes to not try to fuck over your original player base, then just fuck you

>>714285854
there are games where you can disable "shitty skins" so one multiplayer side doesn't see the same as the other
so thats bullshit

>>714283819 (OP)
To be fair, Xbox or Sony probably forced them to do it or they would not allow the game to launch on it.

>>714285886, refer to >>714285854. The developer doesn't seem lazy; RoN is a very detailed game and it just wouldn't be the same if the developer was lazy.

>>714285697
>I'm stealing your car, I don't see a problem. YOu just want to be mad about something

>ARMA for cops(dumbed down for retards because cops are retards)
Don't care, I laugh when they get shot in the back of the head pumping gas.

>>714284390
This is what companies always do they are lazy and so then censor the pc version cause they had to do it on console, this is fucking outrageous.

>mad over censoring a couple boobs
The game deserves a review bomb for its dogshit DLC practices. 10 bucks ONE FUCKING MAP AND ONE FUCKING MISSION

>>714286132
>The developer doesn't seem lazy
Meanwhile their own words:
>and rather than "maintaining multiple versions with different assets and mechanics" that would "increase the likelihood of bugs," some aspects of the PC version have also been revised.
Do I trust VOID's own words, or bootlicking cocksucker on /v/? decisions decisions...

>>714285929
The reason Mortal Kombat is allowed to exist is because for decades the pushback against its censorship has always been that its gore is unrealistic to real life since nobody can rip a person clean in half and see their pristine insides as if straight from an anatomy class.
Ready or Not tries to depict as real life accurate gore as it can, so that defense doesn't work here.

>>714286094
doesn't fucking matter why they did it

>>714284312
no but i bet someone is going to make a mod that restores the content

>>714286132
If they want to maintain feature parity, they can give consolecucks a deliberately censored scene rather than outright removing it so that gameplay parity is maintained, while PC players get the true experience.

>>714286240
Why would you maintain 2 versions of a single game that splits your playerbase if crossplay is what youre shooting for? Just mod the shit back in, tardo

>>714285854
They are, they already censored the child from that drug lab map before

I didn't even realize it's not on consoles. It already feels like playing console slop so I assumed it's multiplat.

>>714286132
>The developer doesn't seem lazy
lol
Reminder that they used AI to generate their subtitles after it came out of Early Access.

>>714286479
The heft of aiming does feel very consoley. There's almost no snap when aiming.

>>714283819 (OP)
consolecucks have been a bane to pc gaming for decades now

>>714284390
When companies used to have balls they were proud of releasing an unrated / AO version of their games on PC, like Leisure Suit Larry Magnan Cum Laude, Manhunt 2, etc. that featured content that wasn't possible in the console version.

Now better keep it a single standard, or else.

>>714286386
>modders will fix it
Nah, mass "review bombs" and refund requests would. But there are too many spineless bootlickers like you for it to work.

>>714283996
Yeah they fixed that

>>714283819 (OP)
So, when are we getting the cape?

>>714286479
Are you one of those SWAT 4 people who think that game is the ultimate tactical simulation even though it's a janky piece of crap from 2005?

>>714286243
Have you seen what a recent mortal kombat game looks like?

>>714286737
Cry more queer. I'm already playing modded anyhow

>>714283819 (OP)
crossplay was a mistake

>>714284390
>we're removing chunks of content from the game because we don't want to have to worry about multiple builds
>also don't be a bitch and start complaining because we're going to try and keep the tone the same despite no mention of adding in content to replace what's being removed
>seriously though, there's literally nothing to even be mildly upset about regarding these changes
god I hate modern devs so fucking much

>>714285929
Some Mortal Kombat fans seem unable to understand the violence in MK is always absurd in fantastical levels anyone with a developed brain can easily disassociate from ever considering realistic; that's why it gets a pass with ratings and advisors.

>>714286850
k
I requested a refund and left a review. Will buy/refund multiple times across all my accounts if I won't get it. :)

>>714286791
Have you? It still has fantastical levels of violence no human being can replicate.

>>714287159
its fucking pixels
anyone with a brain can dissasociate from anything in a game even if it was 100% realistic

>>714283924
Not ashamed to admit Wendigoon put out a long video about the weird story in this game and I was interested.
Saved some money, anyway.

>>714287268
>If I don't get a refund I'll ask for more!
Lmao Chuck cope

They also failed to deliver a proper school shooting mission. The one we got is some fucking uni with adults and the map itself was shit.

>>714286791
Enlighten me then, has Mortal Kombat 1 gotten new fatalities where you realistically get your head decapitated in slow detail with a butter knife like cartel members do, or is the same were a punch cleans someone's head off like a watermelon?

>>714285471
>Nobody wants to play with consoleniggers
It's been hilarious watching the Plebbit Arma Reforger subreddit as the dindu's on PS5 and Xbox invade everyones servers and ruin it.

>>714287419
>faggot doesn't know how Steam refunds work
As expected. I wanted to do only 3 to cost them ~1 copy but I guess I can do a couple more just for you. :)

>>714287521
i can dissasociate from both things so not my problem

>>714287325
As opposed to heads completely vanishing when they get hit by a shotgun? Or people bleeding out in seconds? Believe it ir not, whole limbs don't go flying when they get shot, it's all fantasy shit, just because the game you like has a gritty dark aesthetic doesn't make it more realistic

>>714286005
What? Explain.

>>714287764
Sexing kids is an honest work and a part of a police officer job.

>>714283945
rather specific things
>while dismemberment/gore works as before, you can't dismember already downed/dead characters
>an overdosing child in a crack house level changed to a sleeping child
>cabin schizo's cock and balls + some female nudity covered up
aaaand that's all we actually know at the moment.

>>714287887
I mean...There's CP in the game? I dont get it.

>>714288130
Like half of the game is about sexing kids.

>>714287764
There's a handful of missions where you learn about trafficked, abused, raped, kids.
One is a furry streamer with CP, nothing crazy and you don't see anything
One is a birthday party or a quinceanera where the dad is a child trafficker who makes cp on the side
The worst one for me is you raid a run down child talent agency where many of the kids have been abused, again you don't see this, but you cruise through a rundown sunny funny kid office with drug paraphernalia and sexual toys while the walls are littered in children's headshots. As a parent this mission hit me really hard, but I'd never ask for it to be removed as it's a truly unique and harrowing feeling

>>714283819 (OP)
Guess i'll just grab a pirated copy

>>714288083
>>while dismemberment/gore works as before, you can't dismember already downed/dead characters
I get the others, I'm not supporting it but I get it, but this is pure bullshit. Why did MK is allowed to do it but this game isn't?

>>714283996
No they don't, the USPS warehouse map is still a nightmare. And the volumetric lightning of the game didn't help.

>>714284390
Consoleshitters ruin everything once again.

>>714284390
>consolefags

>>714288865
That one specifically does suck, but they definitely fixed the AI somewhat, I was getting domed in the gas station mission from people on the other side of the map going through the first set of double doors. It reminded me of RLcraft where they brag about LIMB BASED DAMAGE but every enemy only pipes your head therefore instantaneously killing you

>>714288225
Interesting. Sounds like some pretty crazy shit and important to keep in. Shame they're removing it.

>>714289265
We don't know that they're necessarily removing those things, but I hope they don't.

>>714284390
So can I request a refund now? Developers should not be allowed to change or remove content in a game without the recourse fo refunds.

>>714288698
It seems really bizarre to me too. Dunno if it's some weird cultural "desecration of the dead" thing or because not all downed enemies are dead (they can be in critical condition but alive), but not like the game stops you from shooting a handcuffed civilian in the face with a shotgun if you really want to, with the full messy response you'd expect. Seems "worse" to me.

>>714286638
Oh thank God it's not just me being suck, I thought I just cant snap aim and change target as fast as in other arcade-ish tactical game like insurgency, turns out the game's gun sway and movement delay is just ridiculous.

i want more ethical console shooter slop like swat global strike team

>>714288130
I don't know what the other anon is on about but there isn't CP on the game. There's missions related to it heavily but nothing crazy is shown. I think the worse that was ever shown was a little girl having a seizure in a bed while there was condoms props close to that bed but nothing more than that.

>>714288947
It's not consoles fault, retard. They have fucking outlast trials on console amd It's not censored. This mess is just the ready or not devs being too lazy to make different versions for cucked countries like Australia amd Germany.

>>714284390

>>714289785
Outlast trials is fuckin gud too. I really hope the devs don't abandon that game, as I know the playerbase is a little slim

>>714283819 (OP)
>buy game
>money stolen

>>714284390
Don't care about words, someone post a before/after screenshot of what they are censoring

>>714289130
For me it's this map, I can't fucking see shit with how absurdly bright the sun is with its excessive volumetric lightning and horrible anti-aliasing making everything looks like a blurry mess. Yet the NPC can see through all that with no problems and have 0.4 second reaction time from spotting to instantly firing without even aiming and ran around like CoD player while my character cant even snap aim and change target quickly due to exaggerated weapon sway.

>>714284390
Lazy fags and consoles ruining everything yet again.

>pc-cucks kneel to consolegods again
Nothing new here

>>714290913
Crabs in bucket

>>714286964
removing content is bad enough, but one wonders why they'd go on to add insult to injury by being completely unapologetic expecting everyone to "get over it"

>>714284390
Deserved review bomb. I am so glad valve allows players to do this. It gets shit done.

>oh noes the devs censored this game
Okay what was censored..?
>nudity
>torture
>basically simulations of the worst crimes imaginable

Oh so nothing of value. Who gives a shit?

Ah, so they're lazy jews?

>>714284390
>maintaining multiple versions with different assets and mechanics" that would "increase the likelihood of bugs," some aspects of the PC version have also been revised.
I fucking hate these brainless devs. These are the same kinds of retards that are against SKG.
How fucking hard can it be to have:
>pc_config.json
>console_config.json
Fucking retards. They can't even lie correctly.

>>714290573
Most modern games are terribly hard to read. Probably because lead designers are retards who never played video games and think that blinding the player for cinematic effect is a good thing. I don't care about realism if I need to fucking strain my eyes to discern the enemy right in front of me from this blurry vomit of horrible textures and postprocessing effects. I miss the times where you could look on the screen and just fucking see everything.

>>714291975
disingenuous faggot

>>714283819 (OP)
Fuuuck and Im way above the hour limit for a refund. Does steam refund for shit like this?

>>714283819 (OP)
Steam will just sweep those away and put a pity asterisk.

>>714285697
Bad faith bullshit, fuck off. This was a kickstarter game, the PC audience enabled this game to even be made. If you want to branch out and make more money by putting it on console, the bare minimum you should do is not make a PC player's experience worse.
>b-but the game will be slightly different across platforms, think of the maintainability
You'll make a bunch of money from the console release, so shut the fuck up.

>>714293397
Ask even if you don't qualify, they might send someone to check what the fuck is going on if enough people ask.

>>714285179
>which will make them money to keep surviving
Lmao, nobody is buying this game on a console.
All they achieved by pulling this shit is ensure even less revenue from the pc version.

why do you keep making these threads?

>>714283819 (OP)
Lol I have had this game on my radar since they announced it. Guess it's time to let go

>>714283819 (OP)
The devs have been troll remorsing since day one. If you don't care about that, fine. But their behavior now isn't new.

>>714285179
>The people making the game need money to survive
If this was a much smaller game I would agree. All of the devs are turbo rich now because the game was a massive success. This is pure greed

>>714286770
RoN doesn't improve the SWAT4 formula meanignfully at all, it just benefits from modern presentation which fags like you lap up

>>714288225
>trafficker with side job
funny how they didn't mention any censorship regarding this

If you're not a total pussy ass cunt who needs to be babied through life and unironically thinks a gouverment person should come in their house everyday to feed you, you should be against censorship by principle REGARDLESS OF CONEXT.

I do not care if it's a kid who was just raped by a criminal gang with condoms around their bed, if it was in the og game and part of the original storytelling for a dark and depressive game, I don't want it removed for any reason. I don't need to downplay my opinion, censorship is bad, period.

>>714283819 (OP)
let me know if someone successfully gets a refund because I have almost no playtime and would like to try for a full refund.

I didn't even know it had left early access. Kinda relieved I waited to buy it.

>>714285697
I want a realistic simulation. I'll just have to settle for wanking off to gore porn out of Gaza.
It's no Swat 3.

>>714285886
>because they are lazy
not really, they've started shiting on steamies to keep the the consolebux rolling in. It's simply about money

>>714295698
It sucks. They wasted a bunch of resources into this supremely half-baked police station hub where they try to sell a pro LE narrative. It's so poorly done they shouldn't have wasted effort on it. People wanted simple menus to get in the action as fast as possible.

>>714283819 (OP)
>I was just about to buy this game too…
No you were (ready or) not.

>>714283819 (OP)
Its just fucking stupid because the game's no holds barred depiction of a fucked up and evil side of the world is what made it memorable.

>>714286272
>they can give consolecucks a deliberately censored scene
which would be the based thing to do
>want the game on cosoles
>your snoy and xbox overlords don't want you to see the full content
>sorry we don't make the rules
but they chose to bend the knee and go the cringe route

>>714286260
Wouldn't be surprised if one of the devs did this, some of them were apparently really against the censorship.

>>714283819 (OP)
they did this so crossplay can work right? couldnt they make it so when i opt out of crossplay the censored shit gets re-enabled?

How the fuck did we get to a point in which games are more censored than 90s video games in Germany?

Why would I want to play as a zogbot agent of the anti-christ in the first place?

Cleaning up for the child trafficking cartels I see

>>714296113
This. RON gameplay wise has gotten worse and worse since the Betas. It's still a decent tactical shooter especially feeling wise but what made it was the super raw fucked up vibe and how it made you feel even more tense during levels, and it even helped the gameplay as it made you more likely to be trigger happy if you were scared.

>>714296247
no, its a fake reason. If crossplay worked like that everyone would be forced to run games at the same graphical settings. What show's up visually on your end client side has no relevance to multiplayer.

>>714296496
>What show's up visually on your end client side has no relevance to multiplayer.
so in other words theyre too lazy to work on both a pc and console build?

>>714284390
>absolutely required by our first-party partners
So who are the first-party partners?

>>714296790
Yes

The game is ass anyway. Crucial evidence keeps clipping to the hell dimension, enemies act in a buggy, erratic way all the time, there are still retarded limitations like having to choose between a pistol and a razer etc. It wants to be Swat 4 so bad it forgot to actually make any improvements.

>>714283819 (OP)
Is the update out or is it going to update when the console version releases?

>>714295396

Funny in what way? Did I miss something? Stop being a woman and tell me if I missed something or fuck off

>>714289813

>>714284390
>removed everything that was in the lust of ass 2, originally a console exclusive
Huh?

>>714289845
Is it worth getting back into? I never did the rebirth to unlock higher difficulties before but apparently now they dropped that feature. Does this mean I can jump into the harder modes?

>>714298232
Stop noticing!

>>714283819 (OP)
It doesnt even say what game

>>714298301
You can jump right into the hardest difficulty, now. I really like it, granted I'm a total sucker for MKUltra shit and the lore alone carries the game. I'd say try the new full missions you might have missed or some of the new Mk challenges and see if it clicks. I'm not a big fan of the cosmetic free "battlepass" catalogue system but I know some people are constantly hankering for progression so whatever

>>714292465

That's what did it for me. Bought the game a few months ago, enjoyed it, and honestly I probably wouldn't care too much about these changes, but the fact they're doing it to squeeze into the console market and then tried to completely handwave away any and all complaints from fans with an blatant "This is already done, no changing it, so shut up" just made it so much worse
I was gonna grab the DLCs for during this summer sale, but fuck them. I hate their attitudes.
