Ready or Not Here I Come AI Realistic Modpack and Damage Rebuff Mod
Welcome to a great AI Modpack called Ready or Not: Here I Come
This mod comes with a group of modified AI Config files that include 3 different game modes: Extreme Tactical, Terrorist Hunt, and Zombie Knife Party
Requirements:
More Ammo
In Game Menu
The Extreme Tactical (Tac) game mode has AI Bots with dynamic behaviors that allow for a more unique experience that makes the bots feel more life-like and engaging as you clear room to room saving civilians. This mode gives players more organic interactions with suspects and simulates how to deal with them from a tactical perspective. Any major mistake can cause a player or civilian to die. There are traps and civilians in this game mode.
The Terrorist Hunt (TH) game mode is for the players that love to run and gun without having to utilize extreme tactical methods in dealing with suspects. All suspects are extremely hostile and the firefight engagements provide a seriously intense and thrilling gaming experience. There are no civilians or traps in this game mode. All doors are also unlocked and there's a 50% chance of doors being open at the beginning.
The Zombie Knife Party game mode is for the players that enjoy an intense run-in with knife wielding AI. These AI are cracked at sprinting very quickly and slicing players to pieces. It takes a lot of coordination and luck to handle this type of intensity and is an overall blast to play with teams of 5 - 10 players!
Each game mode (with the exception of Zombie Knife Party) comes with 3 difficulties:
- Easy Difficulty Mod Bundle
- Medium Difficulty Mod Bundle
- Hard Difficulty Mod Bundle
Easy Difficulty Mod Bundle: This difficulty now includes all the original AI behaviors which has been adjusted to be much more unpredictable and realistic. This mode is perfect to play Single-player with the Swat AI or up to 5 players. This difficulty includes:
- 5 different AI Suspect counts - Real, Low, Medium, High, and Max
- AI Suspects are more likely to take cover and have aggressive suppression tactics
- AI Suspects are more likely to perform all the idle animations that were added to the new update (Club, Hotel, and Port)
- AI Civilians will appear to act more unpredictable due to a new animation behavior
- AI Suspects are more likely to fake surrender or fake dead when no one is looking
- AI Suspects have higher chance of noticing flashlights, hearing gunshots at certain distances, and reacting/running away from grenades
Medium Difficulty Mod Bundle: This difficulty is an even harder edition of CQB. Tactical precision and execution of collaborative teamwork is crucial to surviving the Extreme Tactical and Terrorist Hunt game modes. This mode is perfect to play with up to 5 or more players. This difficulty includes:
- 5 different AI Suspect counts - Real, Low, Medium, High, and Max
- AI Suspects are even more accurate and dangerous at close ranges
- AI Suspects are more likely to perform all the idle animations that were added to the new update (Club, Hotel, and Port)
- AI Civilians will appear to act more unpredictable due to a new animation behavior
- AI Suspects are more likely to fake surrender or fake dead when no one is looking
- AI Suspects have higher chance of noticing flashlights, hearing gunshots at certain distances, and reacting/dodging away from grenades
Hard Difficulty Mod Bundle: This difficulty is the hardest mode that balances difficulty and fairness. This difficulty requires near perfect execution of all tactics including LEANING around every corner to survive the Extreme Tactical and Terrorist Hunt game modes. This difficulty includes:
- 5 different AI Suspect counts - Real, Low, Medium, High, and Max
- AI Suspects are very accurate and deadly at close and medium range distances
- AI Suspects are more likely to perform all the idle animations that were added to the new update (Club, Hotel, and Port)
- AI Civilians will appear to act more unpredictable due to a new animation behavior
- AI Suspects are more likely to fake surrender or fake dead when no one is looking
- AI Suspects have higher chance of noticing flashlights, hearing gunshots at certain distances, and reacting/dodging away from grenades
Damage Rebuff Mod: This is my newest addition to the AI Here I Come AI Realistic Modpack. The purpose of this mod is to help increase the effectiveness of using all weapons against any type of AI Suspect by increasing the overall damage output, power, and penetration of all caliber ammunition (FMJ AP and JHP). Here is the impact you can expecting using the different category of weapons:
Pistols - Single neutralization with no armor, few shots to kill light armor, and half a mag to break through Level 4 armor depending on pistol caliber. .45 ACP and .357 AP are the strongest viable options.
Pistol Range Effectiveness
Close Range: Effective; Possibly knock out the AI Suspect wearing armor; but mainly neutralization will be lethal
Medium Range: Semi-Effective; More likely to knock out AI Suspects wearing armor
Long Range: Partially Effective depending on accuracy; Less likely to knock out and more shots required to kill armored AI Suspects
SMGs - Single neutralization with no armor, a couple shots to kill light armor, and 5-7 shots to drop Level 4 armor depending on the caliber of ammunition. 10mm and 19x19 AP are the strongest viable options.
SMG Range Effectiveness
Close Range: Very Effective; Possibly knock out the AI Suspect wearing armor; but mainly neutralization will be lethal
Medium Range: Effective; More likely to knock out AI Suspects wearing armor
Long Range: Semi-Effective depending on accuracy; Less likely to knock out and less shots required to kill armored AI Suspects
Shotguns - One of the most powerful close range weapons in the entire game. Single neutralization with no armor, single neutralization to kill with light armor, and possibly 1-2 shots with Level 4 armor. 12G Slug is the strongest viable option.
Shotguns Range Effectiveness
Close Range: Extremely Effective; Possibly knock out the AI Suspect wearing armor; but mainly neutralization will be lethal
Medium Range: Very Effective; More likely to knock out AI Suspects wearing Level 4 armor and Level 5 armor
Long Range: Semi-Effective depending on accuracy; Less likely to knock out and less shots required to kill armored AI Suspects
Rifles - One of the best weapons to use for medium and long range distances when neutralizing suspects wearing the heaviest armor in the game (Level 5 Gorka). 7.62x39 and 7.62x51 are the strongest viable options.
Rifle Range Effectiveness
Close Range: Extremely Effective; Possibly knock out the AI Suspect wearing armor; but mainly neutralization will be lethal
Medium Range: Extremely Effective; More likely to knock out AI Suspects wearing Level 5 armor
Long Range: Very Effective depending on accuracy; Less likely to knock out and less shots required to kill armored AI Suspects
New Scoring System: The New Scoring System mod allows for more fairness in earning points while being able to maintain a relatively realistic expectation when dealing with armed suspects in any situation. This new mod allows for the following:
- Shooting an armed suspect without shouting for compliance in any game type no longer causes any point deduction for unauthorized use of force
- Shooting an armed suspect without shouting for compliance in any game type no longer causes any point deduction for unauthorized use of lethal force
- Players will no longer have to bag up weapons as evidence as part of their mission objectives to hard complete missions
- A separate scoring system for Extreme Tactical and Terrorist Hunt game modes that is already embedded into the mod bundle files
- Players will no longer be deducted points for not calling in incapacitated Civilians for the Terrorist Hunt game mode
DoorKicker100: This newly added mod to my AI Here I Come Mod Bundle allows any base player the strength to kick open any unlocked door that is closed. All locked doors will only take 2 kicks to open and greatly reduces the chances of breaking your leg when kicking down a door. This mod includes:
- Ability to kick any type of door open in an unlocked and closed state
- Ability to kick any locked door within 2 kicks
- Greatly reduces the chance of a player breaking their leg when kicking any locked door or unlocked door
Installation Instructions:
Attempting to drop any mod files at the same time in the Paks folder may cause the game to crash or not run properly. Please remember that no one should have more than one AI Mod dropped in their Paks folder at a given time.
I would highly recommend that you play the experimental mode on the following maps and game types:
Barricaded Suspects: Park Homes, Hotel, Car Dealership, Penthouse Rooms, and Farm
Raid: Park Homes, Hotel, and Port
A huge thanks to all my original beta testers for helping me test and develop these bots to work as I originally intended during my inception of these ideas:
TacoFaceCat, Woooooooah, Foot_Licker, Longshot, undead11(lvl) 16, Chewelews, joca0812, Lucifer, GhostNinja, Xxsaltyfamerxx, Ushi, Aphoxx, Zombiedude
A HUGE thanks to QuantumNuke75 for showing me how to greatly reduce the size of my .pak files. This has made my modding projects so much more worthwhile! Make sure to check out his modding projects on Nexus Mods. They are very good!
I would also highly recommend using Quantum Nuke's More Slots Mod and the In Game Menu Mod from Nexus Mods. These mods will make playthroughs that have max suspects and higher difficulty easier to manage with friends or up to 5 players! It is practically a requirement as well to help try to survive Extreme Tactical Hard Difficulty, Terrorist Hunt Hard Difficulty, and the Zombie Knife Party game modes! See URLs below:
