While all weapons in Ready or Not can be effective, the following loadouts could give new players an easier time learning the game.
As a realistic tactical shooter, players can expect guns in Ready or Not to perform at or near the same level as each other. Every bullet is deadly, and every gun is comparable to each other. The gear choices players make are mostly up to personal preference, though there are a few things to keep in mind that can drastically affect how a mission plays out.
The following guide contains four loadouts designed for different scenarios. The guns and gear here are selected based on ease-of-use and their general effectiveness at the role they are meant to play. Of course, players are free to swap things around, but the following should provide newer players with an easier experience overall. Ready or Not Best Loadouts
When selecting which guns and gear to bring, the first thing you should consider is the strategy the team wants to use for a mission. A general loadout would include plenty of flashbangs and a couple of other breaching devices. Meanwhile, more specialized loadouts lean into specific roles or team-wide synergies.
Generalist Loadout
Primary Weapon
MK16 (AP)
Secondary Weapon
G19 (JHP)
Grenade
Flashbang
Tactical
Pepper Spray Wedge
Armor
Heavy – Front/Back – Ceramic
Long Tactical
M320 Flash
Headwear
Anti-Flash Goggles
This build makes heavy use of flashbangs for breaching rooms and arresting suspects. Weapons-wise, the MK16 is great for beginners thanks to its low recoil and reliable stopping power against armored targets, especially with AP rounds. Heavy Ceramic armor strikes a good balance between speed and protection, which are the two things newer players should try to get the hang of as soon as possible.
You can take this loadout to every mission without having to make many changes.
