So, you've just navigated through an intense mission in *Ready or Not*, taken down all the enemies, rescued the hostages, and ticked off all the tasks—or so you thought. But then, you're hit with a frustrating "Mission Not Complete" message. It's a common issue, but don't worry, there are ways to fix it. Let's dive into how to resolve the "Mission Not Complete" error in *Ready or Not*.
1. Double-Check Your Objectives

The first step is to double-check your mission objectives. Even if you're certain you've completed everything, the game might have other ideas. Missing just one objective can result in the "Mission Not Complete" error.
How to Check:
- Press the Tab button to access the mission menu and review the objective list. Look for anything marked in red or still incomplete.
- Common objectives that players often overlook include:
- Reporting downed suspects or civilians – Always report incapacitated or deceased suspects and civilians by interacting with them (default key: F).
- Securing evidence (weapons, bombs, etc.) – Make sure to pick up any weapons dropped by suspects.
- Completing optional objectives – Don't forget about tasks like disabling security systems, as these can affect mission completion.
- Ensuring all hostages are safe – Double-check that every civilian is properly rescued and safe.
- Fix: Revisit the map to ensure nothing was left undone.

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

In co-op mode, the "Mission Not Complete" error can occur if not all players vote to end the mission. Even one player missing the vote prompt can cause this issue.
How to Fix:
- Ensure every player presses Y (default key) when the vote prompt appears.
- Use voice or text chat to remind any players who might have missed the prompt.
- If a player is AFK, you may need to wait or consider kicking them from the session.
- Restart the mission if the vote screen isn't appearing for some players.
- For connectivity issues, refer to our guide on how to fix ‘Can’t Connect to Host’ in *Ready or Not*.
3. Objective Bugs
Sometimes, despite completing all objectives, the game fails to recognize your efforts, leading to the "Mission Not Complete" error.
Common Bugs:
- The game might not register secured weapons.
- A rescued hostage might not be counted as such.
- An objective may remain incomplete despite meeting all conditions.
How to Fix:
- Restart the mission and try again.
- In multiplayer, switch the host as the game might register objectives differently for different players.
- Verify your game files through Steam by right-clicking *Ready or Not*, selecting Properties, then Local Files, and choosing Verify Integrity of Game Files. This can resolve issues caused by missing or corrupted files.
The Classic ‘Restart and Hope’ Method
If none of the above solutions work, sometimes the only option left is 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 the issue.
And that's how you can fix the "Mission Not Complete" error in *Ready or Not*. Keep these tips in mind to ensure your missions end successfully.
