Ready or Not, the PvE game by VOID Interactive, received a major update today. The update brings new content, map changes, superior audio, and of course, a ton of bug fixes. Two new weapons are added as well, namely, M32A1 Launcher (Flashbang Rounds) and M320 Launchers (Flashbang, Stinger, and Gas).
Suspects and Civilians in certain levels and scenarios will now wear Bomb Vests. NVG Phosphor display can be changed to green or white color. Several optimizations for HUD and Team View were made as well. Thanks to the update, players won’t be able to join co-op games that are already in progress.
The developer also wants to make the game more immersive, that’s why from now on, every NPC will have death screams.
