The could have just made a SWAT game but the fact that they actually have lore behind it is so cool to me
The soundtrack is also incredible imo
Copyright issues and red tape. This game is basically a SWAT game anyway.
@@DylanJo123 A spiritual successor to SWAT 4, if you will
@@Ladis1 that was the phrase I was looking for
...until they started removing parts of the game because it doesnt fit the ""lore''''
To make it worse, in our universe half the family would have been shot by the ATF.
And their dog too
@@sethmoyer likely every dog in a quarter mile radius.

There’s a voicemail left on the landline in the living room which is someone from the PD calling the Tran mother to follow-up on her report that her sons are making the weapon parts.
This means that, in addition to the 911 call, the mother’s report may also have brought upon the SWAT raid.
In that sense, while the Tran kids may have sacrificed a normal life and turned to crime to try and save their mom, the mom sacrificed herself to stop her own sons from making the weapon mods.
And her own kids too.
I’ve seen some people ask “if they need the money so bad, why don’t they just sell their beachfront house, isn’t that worth a ton of money?”
I think the Devs already considered that, since you can see the backyard is actively being consumed by the cliff from all the water erosion, meaning the foundation of the house is compromised, so no one will want to buy it since the house (and the land it is on) will likely be swallowed up within a few years, if not a few months.
also, you can put it on the market... but nobody has the money to buy it. Kinda like real-life.
@@herusolares5320A bank will buy it out then. Just like in real life.
@@yaldabraxas at the lowest price that is nowhere near enough for the mom's medical fee. Just like in real life
@@SkyDragon1997 Living too long is bad anyway.
@@yaldabraxasI mean, I disagree that crime is the way to solve issues since it only pushes everyone around you down further, but saying that "living too long" is a pretty horrible response to this dawg
One theory I have regarding the gambling is that they try to launder the money - because paying medical bills with big duffle bags of cash is a big no-no.
I wouldn't object😊
That's absolutely why, dirty cash in clean cash out even if you lose 50 percent of it you couldn't use that cash anyway
They def are trying any means possible, from fire arms, gambling, ect.
This map was always the one that felt the most engaging to me. No huge conspiracies or gangs, just some people who made a bad choice.
The worst part is that this choise is the only one they had.
@@DENOhritkofacts the state of LS implies to me at least that good jobs aren’t easy to come by with the crime and unrest so rampant
Oh this mission is so heartbreaking. My grandparents were immigrants and they fought so hard to get to where they are now.
As a Vietnamese who is also struggling in a foreign country right now, this map really hits me hard. I nearly broke down to tears after playing the map and understanding what went down, The Vietnamese note on the picture genuinely left me speechless. It's saddening because a lot of fellow immigrants that I know personally have eerily similar stories.
Currently I am dealing with debt, involuntary unemployment, and severe thalassemia. Seeing the bills adding up is slowly pushing me to my mental limit. I genuinely have no clue how I'm still around and how much longer I'd still be around, but I'm holding out hope that things will turn for the better.
Hang tough buddy
Forgot to mention how D Platoon would repeatedly raid the house and bean bag the family whenever a few officers get a little stressed.
What
It's one of the easier missions to clear with non-lethal, so if all the officers are on the verge of resigning, you can run this mission over and over to reduce their stress levels.
I'd go with the gas station mission instead. LOL
This mission hit home for me, as someone whose mother passed from cancer. The costs of her treatment wiped all our savings, so I sympathize deeply with the Trans.
"That'll teach em"
"...what?"
"FUCK"
I love how RoN isn't afraid to talk about social issues (like a bad healthcare system) and stuff that really seems crazy to be in a game. Missions like the Neon Tomb, Elephant and Valley of the Dolls really just showcase that VOID isn't afraid of the backlash that might come with making these very graphic missions that often can get a bit too real.
As a VN I’m wondering if his name’s actually Anh or if that’s just all anyone’s ever heard the other boys call him
I think the caller is Jack Adams, as there’s a note in the FISA room that mentions reporting them. As for the call mentioned in the briefing, there’s an unused voicemail recording from Alana Chan getting back to the parents after they visited the station about their sons
As someone who works with 3D printers. I appreciate the nerd breakdown of the 3D printers and the possible conversions they may have been making!
I do think that it's Perez who brought the brothers into the "business", he's either loosely related, or a low running member of Los Locos, but was just trying to help his friends. The other Los Locos however may not have such good intentions.
I suspect the mysterious caller is related to Agent Adams. In last episode we already know he's into 3D printing gun smuggling and taking the Trans as potential competitors, and it's possible he used LSPD to take out his competitiors with Los Locos gun smuggling business.
I assumed the caller was the FISA agent from the mail center mission, trying to eliminate the competition.
"That'll teach them"
"...sir?"
" *OH F**K* " _click_
Our tax dollars at work.
The only mission I play with a fully non-lethal load out
I wish that there was some lorehooks between the Alt History Vietnam of Los Sueños and this Vietnamese family. Like if the cancer afflicting the matriarch was from Agent Orange...
In a realistic situation like this the dad wouldn’t get a fine for the raid and the sons would make a plea deal for time served after they provided info on buyers and sellers.
In Commander mode this map hits even harder, because you just defeated a large group of heavily armored and well-prepared veteran soldiers in Brisa Cove, and now your enemies are a couple of young unskilled boys with pistols.
The game constantly drives the point that you're a janitor, not a superhero.
My theory,
I think the brothers knew that they had to get out of the game before it was to late, they got ahold of the los locos where they would buy out their operation so they didn’t have to make any more weapons. They planned to use what ever they had made and use it for gambling in order to make their dirty money into clean money. Vinny however didn’t see it this way, he thought it would be best if they continued making these parts and protested against selling their operation away to some gang (hence the phone call)
The story of this map, as heartbreaking as it is, could use some clarification as to who it was that tipped off the police. The 911 call implies either one of the brothers or even the father (though hearing the call, the voice sounds too young to be the dad). Text documents, meanwhile, implicate the mother as the whistle-blower.
SLA printers typically produce weaker, more brittle parts than FDM. You'd have a hard time producing usable firearm parts with an SLA printer. Source; wouldn't you like to know, Fedboi
The other tragedy is, to anyone sane, none of the modifications they are doing SHOULD be illegal. Although I guess what they're doing wouldn't command as much money if black market increased demand didn't kick in.
the music (ends of the earth) that plays when the mission is over makes it one of the best
I noticed the car they are selling has the same name as codename of one of the kidnapped girls in car dealership. Probably doesnt mean anything but i thought i will just point this out
You missed a phone call on the landline in the living room. And you missed a voice recording from one of the brothers that plays when you interact with the computer in the room with the duffel bags of money
I remember watching Hell or High Water where somme bank robber brothers used a casino to launder the stolen money as winnings
This is the only map I go out of my way to NEVER ever kill anyone.
I have cancer, and while I’m thankful for the fortunate position I was born in, those medical bills are no joke. I’ve seen firsthand how even if a cancer diagnosis isn’t a death sentence, the debt accumulated from treatment can be.
always excited for your vids bro
just thought I'd point this out, for the achievement "the Abducted" it marks ends of the earth as a mission to get it. not sure how it ties to hide & seek, and buy cheep buy twice but it could be there just because.
Both Hide and Seek and Buy Cheap are all related to the Weapon smuggling (although we later found out that Hide and Seek also smuggle humans), The Abducted may consist therefore both sides of the event: The chain of events started by LSPD Investigating Weapon Smuggling ring of Los Locos, ultimately found out such Smuggling rings also involved human trafficking. The Trans is more related to the Weapons side.
@@wolfensniper4012 that does make sense, and i guess greased palms is also with the weapons smuggling
love the videos keep em coming
i love this map because it's not some 30 man drug raid but just a regular house which is more realistic
Another great video! (Its one of my favorite maps in RoN)
hauled ass when I saw the notification, excited to see this
I'm pretty sure the Tip off call was actually done by Jack Adams as inside his office there's some text written about them saying "Report to the LSPD?" as you mentioned in the previous video, Jack tried tipping LSPD off so they'd take care of them and maybe get his competition gone.
Theory: I think our main character is having ptsd flashbacks to his older missions trying to make Sense of it by looking through evidence and remembering the stuff he found trying to make sense of it all.
I agree this is definitely one of my favorite maps. Hopefully we get more of these style of maps that are more focused on individual stories..
Everyone is saying how sad they were when they played this misson, well I don't judging by the phone call in the mission brief.
They screwed someone over and now they pay the price. (They did what Walter White did, if they would have known they place everything would have worked out)
We have to thank God that the ATF was not sent to the place
They play blackjack to launder the money. This makes them lose a lot, but effectively provides a "clean" source of income for them to report in taxes. They are likely learning how in response to the audit note, and were not properly covering their tracks previously.
We doing nothing but S rank with zero smoke bombs, teargas, or CS gas with this one!!! 🗣️🗣️🗣️(also, Shayne, please keep cooking)
shane never stop talking
good vid
My man!!
shayne please dont shut up your vids are amazing
I feel like the elephant mission couldn't really have any lore but I would love if you still did a video on it.
The Tran family reminds me of the White Family from Breaking Bad
As a Vietnamese, your pronunciation is... commendable
He butchered every single one.
Excellent video as always mate! It’s tragically sad that the US system and those like it put people into life destroying debt. No-one should be kept from the human right of life saving medical care.
while yes, they are desperate to pay for their mother's medicine, at the end of the day the weapons they modified were used by some very bad people for very bad purposes that cost the lives of a lot of people in the process. they are pitiful and yes, you should feel bad for them, but they still need to face the consequences of their actions.
It sucks to have to ruin a family, but it's worth considering who they are selling to. I'm a firearms instructor and security guard trainer, I have worked in the firearms industry in different capacities over the years and been a part of the community since I was 10. By and large, the majority of people buying these auto sear type things, like Glocks with switches, illegally, are thugs on the street with beef to settle with other thugs, and undercover cops trying to bust illegal firearm sales. Fun fact, auto sears THEMSELVES are considered the machine gun, you register the SEAR when making one, as it's not exactly legal to buy due to the 1986 legislation against NFA items (NFA being the National Firearms Act of 1934, which made machine guns, sawed off shotguns and pistols with stocks and foregrips illegal unless you pay a $200 tax stamp, which was the price of a Thompson SMG at the time. NFA was ammended in 1968 and 1986, the '86 ammendment being that no machine guns newer than 1986 can be sold, so if you want one, you have to register it and build it yourself).
So that said, given the clientele being largely uneducated thugs and cartels, I don't feel all that bad for the Tran brothers. I feel bad for mom, not even dad. She clearly has objections to this and decided it had to end, because think about what criminals are doing with those auto sears. To be clear, I don't feel as if they should be illegal, the 2A says "shall not be infringed", infringement literally meaning "restriction" or "limitation", but I honestly hate thugs who prey on innocent people, it's my main motivation for wanting to teach people how to use a gun effectively to protect themselves. It would be one thing to me on a moral level if they were selling to every day Joe who didn't wanna pay his government mandated bribe to own a full auto firearm, owning one and having one is objectively not morally measureable, but it's what you do with them, and selling to people you know damn well are probably going to do harm to other people makes you complicit. If that guy really is Los Locos, they are actively selling to cartels, and I live in a border city, I feel the cartel impact in terms of drugs and violence in my city, and I have contributed to stopping some of it through some of the jobs I've worked, and that makes them complicit in murder.
Alternatively, one or more of the Tran could cut a deal with LSPD and become an informant, appearing later in a mission involving Los Locos.
The proper pronunciation for Hue's name is closer to "Hway." Aside from that, another common Shayne W. A very good mission where you kinda feel like the asshole in the situation. Moral complexity is spice to a good story.
You guys maybe, I got s rank everyone loves another day
Even mom ( shame that bag of cash went missing)
I never felt good about having to arrest the Tran family; as a human being I understand why they did what they did, and I would have probably done the same thing. On the other hand, I am an extension of the authority of the land, and their activities are the very antithesis of my mission, and I MUST stop them. I love how RoN can communicate such human stories just with environmental storytelling and a few voice lines.
So the neat thing is downloading/possessing files and materials to produce sears, suppressors and other conversion devices is completely legal and covered by the First Amendment.
What you do with that information however can lead you into trouble.
So websites and other distribution methods of this information is completely legal along with producing your own firearms at home for your own use as long as you're not prohibited from owning one to begin with and it conforms to all other firearms laws (barrel length, semi-auto, etc) in many states. It's the First and Second Amendments working together
Knowledge is good, 3D printed firearms are interesting but staying out of jail is even better. Just keep your builds legal, stay safe and have fun
Nguyen is pronounced "Win"
although a bare few will pronounce it the way the briefer pronounced it
This is getting a little too real
hey Shayne, is capturing 1440p footage expensive? or hell 4k? I'm honestly asking/wondering, not trying to jab at your current recording set up but just genuinely curious.
hell nah they added the scummy ATF dog killers 💀💀
I misread it as kaworu
Kinda disappointed they aren't armed with a fgc or just 3d printed guns because duh???
a rubber band will do the same thing lol.
Does this situation with the crime to pay medical bills happen in real life? I am european so this scenario feels very dystopian.
Wouldn’t be surprised.
Yay!!!
Early ash wtf
First
Love your videos man keep it up
To think we ruin a perfect family cuz Vinny thought he was doing the right thing by calling the cops yet today we are the true monsters by overstepping the thin blue line
I have got to be the one and only person on this entire planet that doesn't feel bad about this mission. They are clearly pretty wealthy, even if they can't sell the house why not sell some of those fancy possessions that you have everywhere? Why not do something like that instead of waste all the money you have on 3D printers? And it's clear that the LSPD tried to reason with the family and avoid the raid as much as possible but the kids still went through with the operation. In Breaking Bad, Hank did not destroy the family, Walter did. Similarly, the LSPD didn't destroy this poor weapon trafficking family, the kids did. And it's only the kids fault for any of it. Now maybe I'm just a heartless monster but every time I play this mission I try really hard to care at all about their situation but to me it could have so easily been avoided. Lesson learned: don't jump straight to weapon trafficking as your first option to pay for hospital bills. Especially not when you live in an incredible nice house.
I also felt like for a mission surrounding a vietnamese family they could have absolutely implemented that more into the lore than they did. Maybe the issue is that I just don't like the mission itself or maybe I just don't have personal connection to this kind of thing but I feel way more when I play missions like hide and seek and the veteran missions.
It's Trần, not Tran. Hearing the people in game and in real life calling them tran this, tran that, I couldn't hold back the cringe considering the current movements.
Petition to bring back the old intro like below if you agree
I feel like the odd man out on this one, but that's okay.
I enjoyed this mission and felt absolutely no remorse about bringing "the three stooges" in. I don't get where your coming from with that nonsense about how in this mission there are no good or bad guys, and you feel like the bad guy.
These desperate psychopaths decided out of all the millions of different things they could have done, to turn to weapons selling and gun modification. Screw 'em.
Thanks the them there are probably dozens if not hundreds of motherless and fatherless kids in the city, and for what? So they can make money and go gambling in the hopes to double their winnings for their mothers medical treatment. GREAT.
It's Tuesday lets goooooo
