MeatwadIsGod posted:Bangkok is a bit like Marrakesh in that one target can be dealt with immediately, but the second takes some sneaky maneuvers through a high security area to get to. By far the most challenging thing is the security cameras. There are lots of them and only one highly guarded terminal if you are recorded. It's been my toughest SOSA so far, with Sapienza being the easiest. I have no clue how I'm going to SOSA Colorado. i had your exact problem with bangkok. getting that security terminal is so hard its almost worth it to reload if you get spotted by a camera at all. Colorado actually isn't as tough as it looks if you know everyones routines well enough.

I found getting Dahlia a lot easier- just grabbed an IAGO card outside then walked right in. Once "Tobias" and Dahlia had some words, I hit in the closet in her bathroom and gave her the fiber wire treatment. But yeah, Bangkok SASO pretty much hinges on you either knowing how to take out a camera without alerting anyone (The one overlooking the two sleeping guys near the room with the crewmembers just chilling out took me... around an hour and a half to get past both ways). I'm not looking forward to doing it for Colorado, but the XP from it is too good to ignore.

Colorado is easier than it seems because 3 of the 4 targets end up in the house at some point. Maya Parvati is the only one who never goes there, and there's 2 solid ways to kill her on SASO.

Too bad it's mastery level 20 for Bangkok.

The 5mm caseless, the one that can't be found with a frisk, is also fairly decent for quietly popping cameras, and you'll get it from one or two Hokkaido runs, at Mastery 5. Just use your few shots very, very efficiently. Worst case, thrown objects will break cameras too.

Enter dressed as security, toss a coin into the corner, and pick them off one by one with soda cans, starting with the closest guy. Edit: oh, you were talking about sosa, nvm.

I got spotted by cameras on Bangkok during SASO, but I was able to shoot the camera recordings from just outside the security hut door and book it before the guards realized what had happened.

Boiled Water posted:Gunshot heard doesn't seem to count against being a silent assassin I shot the General in Marrakesh from the rooftop above the school to get my sniper challenge and the first time I did it the guards went into Combat mode because I guess they instantly looked up from the schoolyard and saw me. Second time I just backed up a little and even though they heard the gunshot, all they did was search around. They actually got really close to my position, getting to the rooftop next to mine, but since they're not AssCreed guards who can climb up all the same stuff you do, the ledges I shimmied across kept them at bay.

0.5 seconds: the time it takes me to press the "expose wire" button 1.0 seconds: the time it takes me to realize I forgot to turn off the power 2.0 seconds: the time it takes for the "expose wire" animation to complete, resulting in electrocution

Yeah, its a million times worse when you fail an ET that way like I did. I think it was the identity thief?

Choosing to shimmy into the other patient's room at the very start of Hokkaido basically caused a chain of events that led to me silent assassin-ing the whole thing in something like 20 minutes. Bless that old cowboy's poor physical health

Nothing I did over in that room actually contributed to my run though.

Haven't played Bangkok in a long time, but judging by other people's comments, they removed the recorder from that security hut because it was too easy to do just this.

Yeah, it's not too bad but you definitely need to check for cameras. I did it like this: Start at the riverside with a modern lethal syringe and a lethal poison vial, with electronic scramblers in the restaurant bathroom as the smuggled item. Immediately run to the kitchen and poison Morgan's food. Then pick up the scramblers in the bathroom and go to the floor 47's suite is on. Use a scrambler on the door that leads out onto the atrium roof and shoot the camera that's immediately overhead, followed by the other one to the right of the doorway. Then sneak over to the doorway directly opposite on the other side of the roof. Shoot the camera that's facing the crew members passed out on the floor. Sneak into the hotel room where the 3-4 crew members are hanging out, go into the bedroom and shut the door, then knock out the guy in there and drag him behind the bed. Climb up the pipe into Cross' suite, head right into the bathroom, and lure the crew members in there with the nearby wrench. Put them in the bathroom wardrobe, wait in the recording studio for Cross to poison him, then leave the way you came.

I've mastered and SASO'd the previous three levels (just finished Paris last night) but I don't have a scrambler yet.

It'll take you slightly longer, but go get the master keycard in the laundry room and then continue on your merry way.

You don't need a scrambler to get out to the roof, there's another, unlocked, door.

Distract the dudes outside the hotel camera room with a coin and you can easily pop in to shoot the security hub from behind the desks.

Oh nice, I haven't done an ET yet. Been so engrossed in the main level missions and I've wanted to level up to get as many of the tools and weapons as possible but I'm going to do this one. I did pay for them after all. Edit: Oh goddammit, it's a target in Colorado. Haven't even played that map yet. MeatwadIsGod posted:Nice. They must have noticed how many people were cheesing ETs with fire extinguishers. The always-online requirement can be annoying but what it does for feedback to developers is cool, especially for a developer who is releasing content in this manner.

Join me on a magnificent cringefest, won't you? It's incredible how badly the game's development was bungled-the whole design was partially built, scrapped and redone several times. We dodged getting a whole slew of things that were many times worse than Absolution as it was delivered. And this is the account written by the devs trying to make the game look good. quote:The lighter was a nightmare to develop and took a year to work, for whatever reason Discendo Vox fucked around with this message at 16:40 on Jan 10, 2017 |

We didn't dodge anything. The devs worked hard to turn it around and spent countless hours providing us with a good product.

May require some reloads too, I've gotten screwed by head turns in that drat laundry room a few times.

Bless that old cowboy's poor physical health On my first run I walked by the security office and someone walked out, leaving one guy alone. I got a uniform and killed the cameras and had the run of the place. This is the first mission I did totally blind too.

Electrocution is also an accident, and blowing up due to environmental hazards. Falling off cliffs and such is also an accident, as is being crushed by a falling object.
