So, you've just navigated through a tense mission in *Ready or Not*, taken out all the enemies, and rescued the hostages, only to see a frustrating "Mission Not Complete" message. It's a common issue, but don't worry—we've got you covered on how to fix it.
1. Double-Check Your Objectives
The first step is to thoroughly review your mission objectives. Sometimes, the game might not recognize all your efforts. If you miss any objectives, you can still vote to end the mission, but it won't count as complete.
How to Check:
- Press the Tab button to access the mission menu and review the objective list. If any objectives are marked in red or show as incomplete, that's your clue.
- Common overlooked objectives include:
- Reporting downed suspects or civilians – After incapacitating or killing a suspect, interact with them (default key: F) to report it. The same applies to civilians.
- Securing evidence (weapons, bombs, etc.) – Make sure to pick up any weapons dropped by suspects.
- Completing optional objectives – Some missions have additional tasks like disabling security systems that are crucial for completion.
- Ensuring all hostages are safe – Verify that all civilians are properly rescued and not left tied up.
- Fix: Revisit the map to ensure you haven't missed anything.

2. The Vote-to-End Issue (Multiplayer)
In co-op mode, all players must vote to end the mission. If even one player misses the vote prompt, the "Mission Not Complete" error will appear.
How to Fix:
- Ensure all players press Y (default key) when the vote prompt appears.
- Use voice or text chat to remind teammates to vote if someone seems to miss it.
- If a player is away from keyboard (AFK), you might need to wait or consider kicking them from the session.
- For more connectivity issues, see our guide on how to fix 'Can’t Connect to Host' in Ready or Not.
- If the vote screen isn't showing for some players, restart the mission.
3. Objective Bugs
Occasionally, you might complete all objectives, but the game still doesn't recognize them.
Common Bugs:
- The game doesn't register secured weapons.
- A hostage isn't counted as rescued despite being safe.
- An objective remains incomplete even when conditions are met.
How to Fix:
- Restart the mission and attempt it again.
- In multiplayer, try switching 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 corrupted files.
The Classic 'Restart and Hope' Method
If none of the above solutions work, restarting the mission might be your best bet. While not ideal, *Ready or Not* is still in development, and such bugs can occur. If a mission stubbornly refuses to complete, a fresh start might be the quickest fix.
That's how you tackle the "Mission Not Complete" issue in *Ready or Not*. Remember, perseverance and double-checking can go a long way in ensuring your missions end on a successful note.
Ready or Not is available now on PC.
