So, you just ran through a whole mission in *Ready or Not*, cleared all the enemies, rescued the hostages, and did everything right. But then – boom – "Mission Not Complete." Frustrating, right? Don't worry, you're not alone. Here's how to fix "Mission Not Complete" in *Ready or Not*.
1. Double-Check Your Objectives

The first step is to review your objectives carefully. Even if you think you've done everything, the game might disagree. If you don't complete all objectives, you can still vote to end the mission.
How to Check:
Press the Tab button to open the mission menu and review the objective list. If anything is marked in red or incomplete, that's your clue. Common overlooked objectives include:
- Reporting downed suspects or civilians – If you incapacitate or kill a suspect, you must report it by interacting with them (F by default). The same goes for civilians.
- Securing evidence (weapons, bombs, etc.) – Dropped weapons need to be secured. If a suspect drops a gun, make sure you pick it up.
- Completing optional objectives – Some missions have additional tasks, like disabling security systems. Skipping these can result in an incomplete mission.
- Ensuring all hostages are safe – If a civilian is still tied up somewhere, ensure they're properly rescued.
Fix: Go back through the map and ensure you haven't left anything undone.

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

This issue often catches players off guard. In co-op, all players must vote to end the mission. If even one player misses the vote prompt, you'll see the "Mission Not Complete" error in *Ready or Not*.
How to Fix:
- Ensure all players press Y (default key) when the vote prompt appears.
- If someone isn't voting, remind them via voice or text chat.
- If a player is AFK, you might need to wait or kick them from the session.
- Check our guide on how to fix ‘Can’t Connect to Host’ in *Ready or Not*.
- Restart the mission if the vote screen isn't showing up for all players.
3. Objective Bugs
Sometimes, you've completed everything, but the game still doesn't recognize it.
Common Bugs:
- The game doesn't register secured weapons.
- A hostage doesn't count as rescued even though they are.
- An objective remains incomplete despite meeting the conditions.
How to Fix:
- Restart the mission and try again.
- In multiplayer, switch the host (sometimes, the game registers objectives differently for different players).
- Verify your game files: Go to Steam > Right-click *Ready or Not* > Properties > Local Files > Verify Integrity of Game Files. This can fix issues caused by missing or corrupted files.
The Classic ‘Restart and Hope’ Method
If none of the above solutions work, sometimes restarting the mission is the only way out.
Yes, it's not ideal, but *Ready or Not* is still in development, and mission completion bugs are not uncommon. If a mission refuses to complete no matter what, restarting might be the quickest fix.
And that's how to fix "Mission Not Complete" in *Ready or Not*.
