So, you've just navigated through an intense mission in *Ready or Not*, taken down all adversaries, rescued the hostages, and thought you did everything by the book. But then, out of nowhere, you're hit with a "Mission Not Complete" message. Frustrating, isn't it? Don't worry, you're not alone, and here's how to tackle this issue in *Ready or Not*.
1. Double-Check Your Objectives
The first step is to meticulously review your objectives. Even if you believe you've completed them all, the game might see things differently. If you miss any objectives, you can still opt to vote to end the mission.
How to Check:
Hit the Tab key to access the mission menu and scrutinize the objective list. If any objectives are marked in red or remain incomplete, that's likely your issue. Here are some common oversights:
- Reporting downed suspects or civilians – If you incapacitate or kill a suspect, you must report it by interacting with them (default key is F). The same applies to civilians.
- Securing evidence (weapons, bombs, etc.) – Ensure you collect any weapons dropped by suspects.
- Completing optional objectives – Some missions include additional tasks, like disabling security systems, which are necessary for mission completion.
- Ensuring all hostages are safe – Make sure every civilian is properly rescued and not left bound somewhere.
Fix: Revisit the map to ensure you haven't overlooked anything.

2. The Vote-to-End Issue (Multiplayer)
This issue often catches players off guard in co-op mode. For the mission to end successfully, every player must vote to conclude the mission. If just one player misses the vote prompt, you'll encounter the "Mission Not Complete" error.
How to Fix:
- Ensure all players hit Y (default key) when the vote prompt appears.
- If someone doesn't vote, remind them via voice or text chat.
- If a player is AFK, you may need to wait or remove them from the session.
- Consider our guide on fixing 'Can’t Connect to Host' in *Ready or Not* if you encounter connectivity issues.
- If the vote screen doesn't appear for some players, restart the mission.
3. Objective Bugs
Sometimes, you've genuinely completed all objectives, but the game fails to recognize this.
Common Bugs:
- The game doesn't register secured weapons.
- A hostage isn't counted as rescued despite being saved.
- An objective remains incomplete even though conditions are met.
How to Fix:
- Restart the mission and try again.
- In multiplayer, switch the host, as objectives might register differently for different players.
- Verify your game files through Steam: Right-click *Ready or Not* > Properties > Local Files > Verify Integrity of Game Files to fix any missing or corrupted files.
The Classic ‘Restart and Hope’ Method
If none of these solutions work, the last resort might be to restart the mission. While not ideal, *Ready or Not* is still in development, and mission completion bugs are not uncommon. Restarting can often be the quickest way to resolve persistent issues.
