Now knowing that the alert, gun ready AI reacts in 0.1s, it's absurd.
I have the feeling that there are even more NPCs who have this reaction time.
the devs got it in their head that reaction and action time are the same thing. Reacting to the fastest ai in the game would probebly be a world record
There is a mod for more realistic 0.2 s reaction time as most of the population reacts has around 210 ms reaction time on click.
The top 0.1% is around 120 ms I believe, still far from 100 ms. I mean even then it's okay, but the AI flicks are cracked. You almost always can't outpeek them
@@thenarrator1921 with a average reaction time of 255ms and a standerdivation of 35 having a 120ms reaction time would land you in the top 0.0006%. which is so rare it can be considered a statistical fluke. 120ms is likely impossible. Still with the current ai reacting at 200ms they would always shoot first since you have to act after reacting and with the game having civies and hostages deciding a good shot from a bad shot can still take up to 300ms
got the numbers from human benchmark accounted for input lag
Eh, hold left alt is your friend
little oversight: people keep thinking heavy armor decreases speed but its the acceleration that it decreases when moving, your top speed is always going to remain the same
Except Steel plates, those are slow
@@zmiy_gorinich5385 nope, even those dont affect your top speed, just affects acceleration
Some goods tips here, I'd swap c2 charges for a bunch of wedges though, because map control is very important for S rank imo
especially on maps like Ides of March
Yeah those things are really good I always use them to cover my back as if there're enemies (like outside where I never cleared out) I can just use those wedges and lock them outside until I'm ready to take them out It's just really good I don't think they're quite top tier but they're definitely useful also on the subject of C2 charges I really like the breaching shotgun especially for wooden doors because if a door has a trap on it I can just stand back and shoot the door (usually the door opens and detonates The trap) but since the shotgun shoots slugs I can stand farther away from the door and thus take 0 damage from them which is really useful especially for a lot of traps
Wedges are a lifesaver especially in maps like Relapse and Ides Of March
14:45 Just a heads up, that they can still get up after dropping their second weapon. Not sure if they’ll be hostile, but some NPCs can definitely throw hands
I've had NPCs surrender, pull a gun, surrender again, and then pull a knife.
happend to me once @@Lwislol
Yup, if you wait long enough some will pull a knife, and some will try to pick up a gun from the ground
Suspects who are out of weapons can attempt to punch you like civilians occasionally do if you get in their face.
I have had suspects that just spawn extra guns.
If the enemy is standing right on the other side of a door, kicking or ramming it will stun them. It can help with enemies that are alert.

I can personally confirm that! Did that by accident to be honest, but surely works. 👍
The swat AI aren't affected by gas or flashes even if they don't have gas masks or flash goggles. just equip them with ballistic masks so they (hopefully) don't get one tapped in the face.
Gas mask has the same exact defensive stats as the ballistic mask in the code.
@@AlucardsBlood69 true. I, personally, have experienced that the swat AI tend to die less frequently when I equip them with the ballistic mask. Probably doesn't matter either way tho.
ive lost a bunch of runs from my ai getting shot in the face and dying instantly and they have never reacted to gas for me, so ballistic mask is a must have for them imo@@lmaoyeethaha387
I heard they fixed gas mask being bulletproof in 1.0 @@AlucardsBlood69
What about enemies AI? Are they affected by flashlight 🔦? I don't think so.
Never really saw or felt the speed decrease when using heavy armor, its mostly the plates that slows you down. Even then plates only affects acceleration, you'll still be as fast as everyone else the only difference you'll take a while to reach max speeds. Other that the only downsides I have with it for is less slots for utility.
Also another bonus tip SWAT AI doesn't require Gas masks they are immune to their effects same goes for flashes and stingers, but they can still be damaged by the flash explosion tho so becareful when throwing those near AI. Gas masks from suspects don't do anything either and are still affected by CS and Pepperballs. Other than that these tips were great good luck on those S ranks my dudes.
Another bonus tip for vanilla players. Don't expect the morale system to do anything its currently bugged the only way to fix it is through mods, most of the things that you can do to lower their morale only increases it (Ie flashing, killing suspects, kicking down doors etc ).
Heavy armor is so annoyin, you are very slow when you start moving and if you need to duck you are screwed. Also they one shot you anyways even with the heavy so it's just useless
@@BigBossXCV Like I said before I never really saw or felt the in difference of speed in both armors nor it even affects crouch? If that's a problem free lean can also make you crouch even lower if that's the case. If you're steel plates then yeah that's where I see the difference.
@@laupatual7137 free lean also is another BS at the moment. Even if you peek all crouched behind cover they immediately see you and can onetap you
@@BigBossXCV I think its the opposite for me AI cant seem to distinguish your presence with free lean if you use it properly. But in the end I stopped trying to get Vanilla S ranks after I brisa cove so idk.
Did all On S
and even the Hermit
Its not toooo Bad actually
Its important to give you team a Less lethal and 0 mackup magazines .. otherwise they switch to pistol.
Watched this, cleared Rust Belt in two attempts after countless hours of struggle bussing it and brute forcing S ranks (I am at 7/18 now). Didn't usually like the VKS but knowing about splash damage really helped, as did pretty much every other tip! Good show chap.
I also suggest to activate subtitles/captions because it allows you understand if there is a contact nearby or when you flash/gas a room to identify how many people got stunned
Great video! Although there is one trick that I use that wasn't shown in this video. This trick could be handy at times, but is also risky, so be careful when using it. If you use the mirrorgun under a door, and see that a suspect is standing directly on the other side of it, you can stun them by kicking and hitting them with the door itself, without having to use any ammo or grenades. This is equivalent to bashing them and they will surrender most of the time. Keep in mind: not all doors open with one kick, so make sure to peek the door first so its open before kicking it. You still have the option to kick a door after you peek it open. The reason this can sometimes be risky is because any other suspects in the room will hear you kick the door, become alerted to your presence, and will either hold an angle at the door, rush you, or even sometimes start shooting at the doorway. As long as they are close enough to the door, this trick works almost 100% of the time and is an easy arrest. Hope this helps. 👍
Super useful tips, I'm going to try out getting S rank in Valley of Dolls. That mission giving me aneurysm for keeping suspects under controls.
Finally, a CZcamsr that doesn't complain about the AI but find a way around it. Kudos to you
Damn, this is actually quite useful. Was hesitant to watch, so many 'advanced tips' videos are useless shit or things that are already super obvious, but even after 30hrs this is solid info. I'm struggling with the campaign since 1.0, and lazy to do extensive testing, as you said too something you only just learned, am so keen to try these out.
My biggest issue is that it's at least a full minute or 2 of loading between attempts so testing very small things just feels like a waste of my time and takes ages
This is the best S rank tips video I've seen. Thanks for uploading!
Tbh this guide improved my game experience by a LARGE amount. Props to you my man, you earned a subscribe
keep in mind your ping is accounted AFTER AI's 100ms reaction time. a player with 70 ping has 0.03 seconds to react.
What if i play locally with bots.
@@ukkomies100 0 ping but potentially lower fps, usually how this stuff works.
You are not meant to out-react the enemy AI. You are supposed to outsmart them. Learn to play the game correctly.
@@VormavNJD nah but if you peek a corner and an enemy is able to turn around and line a headshot before you register anything is a bit dumb
@@VormavNJD playing incorrect is how I got S on all levels just like this channel since the game is rigged. yallah preach next door
goood tips! about steel, it can richocet rounds at short range, which can intercapitate suspects, had that many times during s runs
Now this is what I was looking for, a video made by someone who really masters the game, ty very much, very helpful :)
Thank you for sharing your knowledge! All help is welcome!
4:42 that classic RoN AI
Good video! Not sure if there was an update but on my S rank runs I swap between the pepper ball and shotgun for tm8s, I haven’t noticed them kill anyone (yet). Also door wedges are huge for my play style, it is nice to be able to lock off a side of the map and then work from another angel. Love all the updates that have come out since I played in early access, can’t wait to see how many more they have
Very helpful, thanks so much!
Thanks you for the tips!
This video really did help.
Thanks for the video! Tips are valid
I've always used the AI companions and their perks since I knew from the get-go they're just as cracked as the enemy AI with their aim and utilizing their nades is pretty useful too.
One drawback is that they really can't gauge their nades and rarely they completely miss. I found it extremely hilarious when I asked the team to flash and it bounced directly towards us, one of my teammates threw their weapons up, both primary and secondary plus went knees down and hands up.
I was totally confused like "dude are you okay? 😂" when the rest of the team cleared it's like he realized oh shit I'm SWAT and stood up
Yeah I always use those nades they have mostly because it feels like my nades do nothing like I downloaded a mod that made a flashbang that flashes the room 9 times I threw it in a room and not a single guy got flashed which was pretty annoying
I get my AI teammates switching to their empty sidearms and dying mid-breach in a lot of my nonlethal runs. Void left some huge gaps in the friendly AI when they rushed 1.0 and it really shows.
How much ammo are you giving them? Could be running short. I give them VKSes with 4 mags and no sidearm ammo, never had an issue.
I have had this happen too lmao they magdump their vks into a wall trying to wallbang the perps, then switch to the empty pistol and run in to get shot to death
Great video - thanks!
Thank you for this!
Free lean is such a big tip. It is crazy how useful it is, enemies have a really hard time hitting you when you do that. Combined with the armored mask you have a lot of protection when free leaning behind a good wall
Was agreeing with everything until you got to the tazer part. In my opinion the tazer is the best LTL weapon for CQB by far. The fact that it is short makes it insanely OP through doors, super easy to manuver. The only downside is that it doesnt have an "infinite" range like the LTL shotgun but Ive actually underestimated how far it can actually reach.
A few weeks ago I ran out of artillery and all my swat members was killed and the only way I could beat the map was with my taser gun it’s conveniental on rare occasions
I dunno, you’re right about that but if you miss that shot you’re dead. I’ve had shootouts with the beanbag but never with a taser… But maybe it’s just a skill issue lol
@@antwanowens4013 Man's breaching and clearing with an M777 jfc
It's a godsend when going in to cuff, if you're too close they just push the shotty aside and shoot you with a pistol but the taser doesn't protrude as far and instantly stops them in their tracks.
Plus I've often reacted to them pulling out a gun with the shotgun but because I'm standing literally over them I end up getting a headshot and killing them.
@@TheJubiter Yup exactly, also if there are two suspects surrendering, its way easier to take them down if they try to get up and shoot you at the same time. Same kinda thing when clearing a room with two suspects. Ive managed to pull off quite some crazy stuff thanks to the tazer.
I got a perfect run on Rust Belt today finally but got -2 for friendly fire (which I’m pretty sure was done by an AI squadmate) and only got A+. It’s so frustrating getting a perfect score in this game, and I’m still trying really hard to get it on House of Dolls and Relapse. I’ll try Rust Belt again later but I’m tired of playing that map. I really hope the AI suspects get nerfed because although the lethality of the weapons is great, they shouldn’t react so quickly and have such great aim.
i'm using the mod (No Crack A.I is way to easy) it's a mod that came from the mod No Crack A.I.... it's a little bit more playable, but still got some OP enemy A.I....
Yeah you can just download mods to make the ai worse but that will result in an "unofficial" rating which really doesn't mean anything as you can just download another mod that unlocks everything for free
@@WinterGameplays mods disqualify ranking so the devs should seriously reduce the ai aggression
My thoughts exactly. Most of the suspects in the game aren’t supposed to be elite warriors, they’re thugs, weekend soldiers, security guards and crackheads, they shouldn’t be as strong as your team, and they shouldn’t be on superhuman level.
I go to the gun range once a week, and I can’t fire full auto and hit every shot at the dead center like the AI can. It’s simply too accurate. I can see why a SWAT team would be really good shots, but not crackheads and street punks.
As an experienced player, this was a great guide. Awesome job
5:05 that’s interesting because IRL a knife can go through kevlar unlike ceramic or steel
I knew as soon as you started to speak that you were portuguese. Great vid man
14:00 I never seen a target get killed by a C2. After you blow it up they will apear dead, and you can even call to TOC that the suspect is dead, but they aren't really, if you just restrain them they will get up or if you wait long enough the same will happen. You do not lose S rank by doing this. If anyone has seen a suspect actually die in the C2 blast please correct me, but I use them all the time against suspects that are hugging the door and never seen one die
I don't think suspects will die, but unarmed civs can die to c2 explosions.
@@aureole420 Oh I didn't know that. I never C2'd a civie because I thought that I would get ROE violation, didn't know they actually died. Guess the suspects are more sturdy haha
@@Rodiza Yeah for some reason, feels like civvies have around 1/3 of the HP everyone else has. Hence why a bad shoot on a civvie only takes one to down them, but suspects take 3 or 4.
Great video, but one thing about ceramic armor. It still blocks 40% of damage taken after being broken, so it doesn't become completely useless.
Im always sneaking (hold shift) and using free lean (alt+directions). Getting better results.
Didn't know officer perks stacked, or how effective Armorer was. Thanks!
One thing I noticed when doing S rank runs is that on occasion, the Swat AI members will try to switch to their sidearm thinking that it has ammo when it has none in it, thus resulting in them standing around like complete buffoons while they get lit up like a christmas tree. Not sure if this is an issue with them and the beanbag shotgun, or if it's just giving them no secondary ammo.
it happens with the vks too unfortunately, just have to babysit them while they clear rooms and avoid letting them into open areas when not absolutely neccecary
They should add multiple potential spawns and rng to spawning of soft objectives. Would make it more important to be thorough in search instead of just going in and going through the motions
One more thing about gas grenades. You can throw it near a closed door and an enemy on the other side of the door will start coughing. Helped me few times while mirrorgun showed someone holding a hostage behind the door I was about to enter
Thanks you helped me 👋👋
So many great tips, thank you !
Question about door opening sound - so basically if the door is unlocked and I just open it I am alerting AI's around ? Should I always peek and physically push in for minimum sound alert ?
Basically opening the door is loud; Always peek then walk into it to open.
3:24 AFAIK max speed is the same for Light and Heavy armor. Acceleration is slower though.
I don't think the armor types (light vs heavy) affect movement speed. Only the plates do (as far as I can tell when I test it out in game and from what I've read online and from the in game descriptions).
Took me two days of grinding to S-rank neon tomb. I had some suicide bombers take 20 mags of pepperballs, dozens of beanbags, flashbangs, tasers and muzzle strikes for 2 minutes straight until they just fall over dead. And if I stop shooting to break the stunlock they just blow up and kill everybody.
I only have carriers on the vine, hospital and port left
That flick at the beginning was dirty ngl
I think SWAT AIs are immune to pepperballs, stun and gas grenades, and stingers regardless of whether you equip with a gas mask/anti-flash goggles. You just have to worry about yourself.
This. I just give them ballistic masks and then give myself a gas mask
I once had a civ that didnt surrendered even after a couple of tasers and outright fisted me to death after i run out of taser ammo ...
I highly recommend making all your AI specialised in S. For example, have a breacher, 'door wedger', grenader, rifleman/arrester.
If not aiming for S, I don't recommend this, as you will continue when one AI dies. But for S rank, nobody can die anyway
For beginners i recommend AI mods and health mods to get a feeling for the game
bruh 😂😂 "For players who are new to the game i recommend ruining your experience with mods so you dont experience the actual feel of the real game"
As somebody else mentioned, NPCs can get up at least three times, I've had them go down with a rifle, get back up with a pistol, and then get up a third time with a knife.
hey takibo, thanks for the tips! Quick question - does gas/pepperball and stingers affect civilians in the room too? (worried about unauthorized/excessive use)
Yes but it doesn't counts as excessive use of force
nice video, how can i make surrendered people come toward me in multiplayer? i mostly play with my friends and most incidents happen during cuffing in open areas...
Many Thanks!! I tried out all your tips, and I finally managed to completed S rank Valley of Dolls. It did took me a couple times (mostly my fault) but it when alot more smoothly with your super tips. (^_^)-b
Looking forward to trying this. I knew the gas grenades were strong, but they take a while to trigger, which has made me go more with bangs lately.
Good tip on removing the sidearm ammo. What happens if you give an officer a shield, no sidearm ammo and a taser? Will he use the taser?
Pretty sure you can only use a sidearm with a shield (at least AI can)
I'd bind free lean to one of my extra buttons on the mouse so its easier for me to press
14:40 I literally had a suspect on rust belt with uzi and two sidearms. Happens once for me tho
If you take too much damage to your arms use heavy armor, if it's mostly headshot or legs, then keep light armor
One more thing about free lean, you can free lean through the door to see what is going on behind that door and the suspect can’t see you
that’s cheating though…?
it’s a single player game…why cheat on a single player game you’re just ruining it for yourself?
No? I just using the in game feature lol
Lol @ the guy calling this exploit "cheating" when the optiwand lets you do literally the exact same thing (that is, see what's behind a door without alerting the suspects)
@@yellowsaurus4895can’t argue that one
try the following. if the enemy is right next to the door, Peek the door and then kick it open, its gonna stun enemy for a short time.
Beanbag shotty definitely gets suspects to surrender faster, but you've got to be careful not to land a headshot when going for S rank, otherwise you might kill the suspect and have to start over again. Happened to me more than once, which is why I'll usually run with the VKS
You can also pre fire by shooting at a corner you think an enemy might come from so they walk into the pepper cloud
Personally I still prefer the shotty tho
13:50 To deal with the target. Ram the door or peek and kick it.
Don't use stinger grenades at all. Many have reported they are ineffective as a game issue prevents them from hitting targets.
Even if they DO PATCH, gas can travel around walls and are always best.
Flashbangs are a close 2nd as the effects travel around obstacles and corners.
The flash bang is supremely useful in my experience
I FOUND OUT ON THE NEON CLUB MAP THAT THE SUSPECT WITH THE SUICIDE VEST CAN BE ARRESTED IF YOU PICK THE LESS LETHAL SHOTGUN FOR YOUR TEAM AND ORDER THEM TO BEAN BAG HIM 2-3 TIMES HE WILL SURRENDER AND CAN BE CUFFED FYI
Love this game so much, the aim bot ai is fun to fight, because with holding left alt, you can pew them very quick. Use mirror to locate, everywhere, then hold left alt to position and slowly leak out and you are 100% faster. I put the mod on to remove that ai bot but its not fun, too easy
If you have 2 criminals, order the far criminal to come to you 1st then secure the close one.
While they shuffle towards you on their knees they can NOT draw a pistol or knife until they get close as part of the game mechanics.
For graphics set shadows to medium for better performance.
11:19 what would you advise for PS5 Controller?
HAHA 12:09 nice nade
Hearing never using tazers and heavy armor being bad is some heretic stuff man.
Why equip them with battering rams when most of the time you peek/mirror/slowly open doors. Wouldn't m32a1 launcher be a better option? That's like 6*4=24 extra gas/stinger grenades. Wedges are also important for S rank, especially on Brisa Cove
You need wedges on Brisa Cove. Close every door, wedge, clear the hallway and central room, search both rooms
The TPL should be a secondary. A lot more people would run it if it was. I have never used my pistol other than when using a shield.
SWAT AI should be immune to all effects and have inbuilt night vision, so it might be better to give them ballistic masks.
Hey, is it just me or has the performance dropped huge after the full release? My friends and I played in early access a long qwhile ago and it worked perfect. Now we are frequently getting 25-30 fps with great computers. This is not great news in a game where enemies have 0.1 second reaction time
It did, I had to set all my settings to low and cap it at 40 fps or it stutters to the point of unplayability, like an enemy will spot me and fire one shot, the game will freeze, and then I'll be dead
Does peeking then opening give the same results as peeking then pushing open the door?
Counts as opening doors unfortunately
17:55 even though you remove all of their mags, they still have one in the pistol so they can still kill enemies
Dude I thought I was the only one. So infuriating
Are you sure they are actually shooting with the pistols. I have noticed that the SWAT AI will still pull out their empty pistols when having to reload their primary.
Search and secure command becomes available after you bring order to chaos. There's no other requirements for it
Valley of the dolls S-rank is what brought me here :(
Bom vídeo, cá espero o Hanged man achievement video, tem sido difícil para mim, quero ver como iras fazer maquina.
EDIT: Já consegui todos os achievements Ready or Not, mas mesmo assim fico a espero do vídeo :)
I don’t think rank S is the hardest thing to do. I’m about to finish it. I’m about to start my iron man run/iron man without losing any officer run. That seems harder to me but I don’t know the general consensus.
Doing S rank in iron mode run ahahahah started save scumming after dying multiple times in mindjot
Yeah I love wearing gas grenades on my head
I never knew that flashbangs sucked so much in this game
11:00 omg, free LEAN 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜🥶
Im pretty sure ive seen suspects get up a 2nd time. They just tend to pull a knife the next time.
How do you highlight the guns what setting is that
It's in accessibility
given that ceramic will break at one point, isn't it better to run steel in a longer map such as hide and seek?
Bullets ricochet off steel and damage your team
@@bigcheese82 so don't stand too close to your team
Rocking steel plates also increases chance of ricochets into your limbs. Be mindful of that.
Weird that spall liners havent been implemented
@@ukkomies100 Part of the game's lore is that the LSPD is low on money (also explaining the small squad size) so you can make it make sense with that I guess
@@ukkomies100 Spall liners are generally unreliable

my closest S runs were ruined by an npc killing themselves after being stunned 😂
My friends and i have been stuck S ranking sinous trail. We've played it over 10+ hours and 300+ times.... Ive kept tracked.
That map is riddled with bugs, best way I have completed it is two of my friends go up to the roof and work down, and three others go in from the front. I feel you pain though, hospital is that for me. Best of luck, friend.
Yeah, thanks. We are still trying. I like keeping track of how long and how many attempts we do I will update this if the 3 of us ever get S... We heard Sinous Trail is C rank in terms of Getting an S rank compared to the other maps we haven't even tried yet and that scares me.... The layout in the Glass room and server/upstairs is so bad because the ai just aim bots us or shoots through the walls despite us being so careful and gassing the place up.@@savagedamsel
@@Excal123 i somehow lost a s rank on gas station because one guy was incapacitated even though he is still alive
Flash and stinger last for 8 sec gas is 22 sec, thats why i carry the gaslauncher instead the mirror , i call for my enemies and gas the whole area, i got 10 gas nades on me and pepperballs , gastime baby.
I feel so dumb after watching this video 😂, for the longest time I couldn’t get my ai team to stop killing ppl with there sidearm, didn’t think to just give them no ammo 💀
my problem with the VKS gun is that I am the one taking damage when shooting....this game is so broke up man....I get damage after shooting 10 rounds or more, and when I go to arrest the suspect that I just shot, I get damage from the pepper that it's on him.......
I’ve been stuck on the barista cove trying to get S for like a week cause my officers keep dying
For Brisa Cove, just got my S rank a few days ago. Tips for this map would be; never allow your AI officers to clear the long corridors or push into rooms before you, bring lots of wedges and clear each room one by one. If you use the move and clear command, be ready to ask your AI to hold before they over extend and can't support each other or you.
i feel like they should remove the illumination of dropped weapons to make it a fully realistic sim
its a toggle, its off by default..
Honestly just use ceramic ive NEVER had my ceramics break before
i keep dying who installed this lightyear of a delay in my brain stim
After I was in Paris on 13th/11/15 (because of Disneyland) I really dont want a S for the neon club mission. This mission almost breaks my soul.
That mission seriously shocked me the first time I played it, if I remember correctly it's the one with all the phones going off, devastating
