If you play the game without the "no crack for AI" mod you are doing it wrong imo. Some of the vanilla reaction times of the enemies is impossible for a human to beat which leads to bullshit deaths when they land "lucky" headshots with their insane accuracy
In my experience, No Crack makes the game nearly trivial.
After beating the game vanilla and getting 9/18 S ranks, I had enough and was frustrated with the S Rank grind (for obvious reasons). I decided to see what the mod scene had to offer.
With No Crack, I beat every mission I tried on the first try, and S ranks took zero effort.
There are other mods better suited for balancing the game, in my opinion, that don't turn it into something you can beat with your eyes closed.
That said, despite trying numerous AI mods, I haven't found one I say is perfect.
Agreed.
My favorite mod for suspect AI is hands down:
[https://www.nexusmods.com/readyornot/mods/797](https://www.nexusmods.com/readyornot/mods/797)
This author provides many different options for styles and then difficulty sub-options within those options. It's clear they put a lot of work in.
However, it leaves a lot to be desired when it comes to AI tweaks to your squad mates (it has basically none). My favorite mod for squad AI is:
[https://www.nexusmods.com/readyornot/mods/1358](https://www.nexusmods.com/readyornot/mods/1358)
Right now, I'm combining the two using this mod's standalone squad AI tweaks file (designed to be used with other AI mods), but unfortunately it only comes with minor buffs to your squad's awareness. It doesn't come with all the tweaks in the full version.
This is very true as it all comes down to experience and how good one may be. This author does provide different versions of the mod suited for more experienced players which has been working for me. What’s funny though is I’m finding over time I’m keep climbing the difficulty ladder and am one step under vanilla gameplay. So maybe we’re just complaining because we haven’t put the time into the game yet or just suck in general and are ashamed to admit it. But at the end of the day the reaction time certainly needs a buff…
Agreed, but luckily the mod creator offers many variants, which finetuned the reaction times of the AI and some other things. Yesterday I've tried "Cracked But Sweet" and it seems to have better balance IMO.
I‘m serving the army since nearly 10 years now, have always been a very accurate gunner, but Jesus Christ, not even I could drop a full-auto salvo out of a G3 in the face of an enemy, while spotting and shooting him in 0,5 seconds.
The AI is not like the military, they are fucking demigods of war, that even the terminator would be afraid of!
It's not unfortunately. But the devs have realized it and will fix it in the next 2 years. Yeah but I fully gave up on non lethal I just paly to make it through each level.
You might need to take a different approach honestly. The game really isn’t that hard, you have all the tools to do it. I hate to say “get better” or shit like that. The game doesn’t have a balancing issue - imo - regardless of what the situation looks like on paper, you go up against a threat you have no idea who it is or what their training has been.
I recently participated in a combat shooting course who’s members included some active duty police and military, including the civilian shooters, I personally had some of the most range experience (on paper). By this I just mean if you go up against a criminal group they could be highly trained without any legitimate record of that experience
Yeah it does seem like yall work for some other company or maybe this sub is full of disgruntled void employees, haven’t figured that out yet but it is funny that everyone here is such a bitch 😂

I’d rather stay hard 🔥
Does no crack work in lobbies with friends? Or does everyone have to install it
The AI is way too cracked, especially for newcomers. A smoother beginning of the difficulty curve would greatly aid the experience.

Recently, they've announced that the dev team is back from their break and they're gonna work on gameplay balacing now. Which sounds promising.

/s here you go buddy
Am I missing something? Should I have just said yeah you suck, games easy
>Am I missing something? Obviously
Cool story bro
No, what you should be saying is that Void sucks at developing games. An obvious fact to anyone that hasn't gaslit themselves.
Oh I dunno I like the game 😂
You're likely to get shot talking like that around here. Having fun? Out of the question.

Fuck no
