The recent hurricane has driven the Greenside homeless to the 'Dormitories' in search of a roof over their heads. The Dorms have long been on the LSPD watchlist as a place of ill-repute and is long overdue a clean up. The combination of increased homeless presence and the general damage to the building is reason enough for the LSPD SWAT to be called in to sweet through the building and clear out the troublemakers.
Description of "Dorms"
Dorms is a DLC mission in Ready or Not. Mass amounts of homeless people and drug addicts are seeking shelter in the abandoned Greenside Dormitories. Due to the structural instability and the location's history of attracting troublemakers, LSPD attempted to clear the building. However, the occupants resisted and an officer was shot in the leg; whether this was intentional or not is unknown. Other units are unavailable due to the current situation in the city, so SWAT is responsible for clearing the people out of the building.
Mission Briefing[]
Team Lead: Alright, quiet down and listen up. Today we're doing something a little different. There's a property in Greenside, the old dormitory. It's been on our list for a while now to just move through and clear them out. The hurricane just bumped it up to the top of the list. We've had reports of increased activity in the area, mostly vagrants and addicts. We've had a call about gunshots coming from inside the building, and an officer has reported being injured while attending a call. The full details are still coming through but they were injured in some sort of altercation with a group in the building. They are safe, but we've been asked to lend a hand.
I know this isn't our usual job, but this fucking hurricane really did a number on this city. We're all well aware the brass in working with skeleton crews, so we're going to have to pitch in and do things a little different to normal. The building was condemned before the hurricane hit. Now, it's liable to collapse without warning, so the last thing we need is for a group of homeless to get too deeply rooted.
I want to reiterate that I understand it's easy to lose focus on a job like this, but remember, we've already had one officer shot trying to sort this things out. These folks are scared, and this building is their sanctuary. For most of them, it's the only thing they have in the world. It sucks, but everybody has lost something in this damned storm, and they are no exception.
We don't know what we're going to find in there. We know a number of these people are active drugs users. We don't need any fuck ups on this. Get in, clear it out, and get back here for a debriefing. This should be something short and sweet. A palette cleanser after everything we've been dealing with. But we all know things could go tits up in a heartbeat, so I want everybody focused.
Any questions? Any issues? Anything that's been missed?
Officer: What's the relocation plan for any non-threats in the building? If we push them away, they'll just come back again. We've seen a number of pop-up shelters since Antonio hit.
Team Lead: We've got people talking with some local official shelters. There are also a couple of programs to provide rooms for the homeless in some of the old run down hotels in the city. This might sound cold but the solution isn't for us to come up with. Our role is just to clear that building out as best we can without causing a large domestic incident.
Now, I want equipment checks completed and everyone ready to load up in 20 minutes.

Trivia[]
- A few drug addict suspects and civilians are reused assets from Twisted Nerve.
- This mission's background ambience features the same creaking wood and beeping noises from the cabin in A Lethal Obsession.
- Multiple references to the bible and Christianity can be found in the mission. This is likely due to the work of Michael "Reverend" Perez, who appears to be a spiritual leader to the unfortunate individuals inside the dormitories - it seems he frequently tries to convince them to not give up hope.
- Many civilians and suspects in the mission express suicidal tendencies, possibly explaining why the seemingly-good people violently attack the player.
- It appears that the Greenside College is still up and running. These abandoned dormitories were seemingly part of the college campus until new-and-improved dorms were built and these were abandoned.
