Author: Ryan May 01,2025

You've just navigated through an intense mission in *Ready or Not*, taking down all threats, rescuing hostages, and executing your plan flawlessly. Yet, when you expect to see "Mission Complete," you're hit with a frustrating "Mission Not Complete" message. Don't worry; you're not alone in this, and here's how to address it in *Ready or Not*.

1. Double-Check Your Objectives

How to Check:

  • Press the Tab button to access the mission menu and scrutinize the objective list. If any item appears red or incomplete, that's your clue.
  • Commonly overlooked objectives include:
    • Reporting downed suspects or civilians: If you incapacitate or kill a suspect, you must report it by interacting with them (default key F). The same goes for civilians.
    • Securing evidence (weapons, bombs, etc.): Make sure to secure any dropped weapons, especially if a suspect drops a gun.
    • Completing optional objectives: Some missions have additional tasks, like disabling security systems. Skipping these can lead to an incomplete mission.
    • Ensuring all hostages are safe: Double-check that all civilians are properly rescued and not left tied up somewhere.
  • Fix: Revisit the map and ensure nothing was left undone.

2. The Vote-to-End Issue (Multiplayer)

Ready Or Not Vote to End Mission ScreenIn co-op mode, this issue can trip you up. For the mission to be considered complete, every player must vote to end it. If just one player misses the vote prompt, you'll encounter the "Mission Not Complete" error.

How to Fix:

  • Ensure all players press Y (default key) when the vote prompt appears.
  • If someone isn't voting, remind them via voice or text chat. If a player is AFK, you might need to wait or kick them from the session.
  • Restart the mission if the vote screen doesn't appear for some players.

3. Objective Bugs

Sometimes, despite completing all objectives, the game might not recognize your efforts.

Common Bugs:

  • The game fails to register secured weapons.
  • A hostage doesn't count as rescued even though they are.
  • An objective remains incomplete despite meeting the conditions.

How to Fix:

  • Restart the mission and try again.
  • In multiplayer, switch the host (sometimes, objectives register differently for different players).
  • Verify your game files through Steam by right-clicking *Ready or Not*, selecting Properties, navigating to Local Files, and choosing Verify Integrity of Game Files. This can fix missing or corrupted files causing issues.

The Classic 'Restart and Hope' Method

If all else fails, restarting the mission might be your only recourse. While not ideal, *Ready or Not* is still in development, and such bugs can occur. If a mission stubbornly refuses to complete, restarting is often the quickest fix.

And that's how you can tackle the "Mission Not Complete" issue in *Ready or Not*. With these strategies, you'll be back to completing missions successfully in no time.
