So, you just breezed through a mission in Ready or Not, taking down enemies, saving hostages, and ticking off all the boxes. But then, out of nowhere, you get hit with a "Mission Not Complete" message. Frustrating, isn't it? Don't worry, you're not the only one facing this issue. Here's how to tackle the "Mission Not Complete" problem in Ready or Not.
1. Double-Check Your Objectives

First off, make sure you've actually completed all your objectives. Sometimes, you might think you've done everything, but the game says otherwise. If you haven't completed all objectives, you can still vote to end the mission, but it won't count as complete.
How to Check:
Hit the Tab button to pull up the mission menu and scan the objective list. If anything shows up in red or as incomplete, that's your culprit. Common oversights include:
- Reporting downed suspects or civilians – After incapacitating or killing a suspect, you must report it by interacting with them (default key is F). The same goes for civilians.
- Securing evidence (weapons, bombs, etc.) – Make sure to pick up any dropped weapons. If a suspect drops a gun, secure it.
- Completing optional objectives – Some missions come with extra tasks like disabling security systems. Skipping these can lead to the mission not being counted as complete.
- Ensuring all hostages are safe – Double-check that every civilian is rescued and not left tied up somewhere.
Fix: Revisit the map to ensure you haven't missed anything.

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

This one trips up a lot of players. In co-op mode, every single player must vote to end the mission. If even one player misses the vote prompt, you'll get the "Mission Not Complete" error in Ready or Not.
How to Fix:
- Ensure all players hit Y (default key) when the vote prompt appears.
- If someone's not voting, give them a nudge through voice or text chat.
- If a player's AFK, you might need to wait it out or kick them from the session.
- If the vote screen isn't showing up for some, consider restarting the mission.

3. Objective Bugs
Sometimes, you've done everything by the book, but the game still doesn't recognize it.
Common Bugs:
- The game doesn't register secured weapons.
- A hostage isn't counted as rescued even though they are.
- An objective remains incomplete despite meeting the conditions.
How to Fix:
- Restart the mission and give it another go.
- In multiplayer, try switching the host. Sometimes, objectives register differently for different players.
- Verify your game files: Head to Steam > Right-click Ready or Not > Properties > Local Files > Verify Integrity of Game Files. This can fix issues caused by missing or corrupted files.
The Classic 'Restart and Hope' Method
If all else fails, sometimes the only way out is to restart the mission.
It's not the most glamorous solution, but Ready or Not is still in development, and these bugs are part of the journey. If a mission stubbornly refuses to complete, restarting might be your quickest fix.
