So this appears to be the first Colorado ET in over a year and they made it challenging instead of just 'throw duck, run'. The temptation to just look up a guide is strong because its the only suit I'm missing

I actually found him pretty easy once I figured out where he was chilling and what counted as an accident.

At least it's finally an ET that doesn't require you to use AI exploits to get rid of everybody around him.

Yeah that one went pretty smoothly, I dropped him with a lethal syringe in the hacker's room and they hadn't even spotted the body by the time I exited the map.

I went for his water bottle because I always have terrible luck with syringes, and the only real frustration was waiting for all the nearby patrols to sync up. Then I realized on the way to the exit that I could've dropped the breaching charges I was carrying to distract people. Oops. Live and learn.

I pushed him over the railing after knocking out the hackers (and nearly everyone else upstairs because they kept responding to the coins instead) and dragged them into the bathroom. Avoided the cameras on the house on my way out only to be spotted by the one at the gate. So... Back inside the house, distract the guy by the recorder and destroy the evidence, try to leave again and nearly get spotted by one of the enforcers outside and FINALLY make it out. SA and a new costume

I coined one hacker and hid him in the bathroom. Just waited for the right window to hack the laptop. Then when the guard went downstairs I just pushed the target over the railing. Went downstairs and shot the camera system and walked out fairly easily. All costumes now unlocked on my 2nd account! Only thing left is to play out the rest of the ETs I initially missed and get all those Completed checkmarks. Sadly I'll never have perfect SAs on all of them

Does the Sniper Assassin game require the Season 1 stuff be installed first? I really wanna free up hard drive space and Season 1 takes up a ton. If Sniper Assassin and Hitman 2 don't require the other stuff first I'd rather just delete that for now and reinstall later if I want to replay those maps.

Not everything. It revealed the names of the targets for the first three locations, Miami, Mumbai, and Bogota pictures of a bunch of disguises and items from them, and some concept art for the levels. It basically had jack poo poo for the last three. New Zealand is referred to as “New Zealand City,” (!?!?) the North Atlantic location from the previous leak is named “The Ark,” and the North America location is “Suburbia.” One of the melee pickups in Bogota is a brick of cocaine.

To be fair walking around with a brick of cocaine probably would work for a while, not a lot of cops are instantly going to say "hey that guy in the crowd is carrying around a brick of cocaine!"

Once I am done with the main campaign missions, what order should I tackle the additional campaigns and missions? I know that for most of them (Savejero Six? Ugh, I butchered that name) are basically the base missions with a different target.

Good news: The hitman sniper game was updated and it doesn't run like garbage anymore Bad news: I attempted the elusive target and almost had silent assassin but then the guy turned around and I ended up killing him in a non accident way and I failed. I really hate elusive targets. A bunch of unique content that you don't even get to enjoy playing.

I’ll never understand time limited in content in games that don’t monetarily benefit from making you play said content. I hate that a freemium game might do something like that to urge you to pop in and be much more likely to spend money, but I understand it. In Hitman, why do I need to show up and play some week on a mission I should be well practiced and familiar to get the rewards? I’m not going to spend anything additional, and it’s just effort on the part of developers that’s wasted potential. Let me experience it all the time in multiple ways! It feels like a sort of cargo cult of a feature that doesn’t belong in Hitman. The added challenge does offer a cool feel and while I appreciate that in principle, I think it ends up just being limiting. All that said though, it’s a very minor complaint. 2016 is a game that I can find very, very few legit complaints about. I’m crazy excited for Hitman 2 and I think it’s set up to be the best in the series if they execute well.

Maybe a good compromise would be to have one shot at elusive target suits/cheevos/bragging rights while still allowing you to replay the mission. I love the tension of having one, limited chance but it does seem like throwing away good content.

Sarajevo Six are PS4-exclusive content and, like most console exclusive DLC, don’t have a ton of effort put into them. They’re fun, because Hitman 2016 is just a fun game, but they’re always in one general location with no opportunities so the rest of the map doesn’t matter. The Sapienza guy stays in the laboratory, and I killed him first try in less than a minute by spawning as a scientist, coining him to an acid vat, and then knocking him out, dumping him in, and taking the seaplane. So I say do Patient Zero next, and then Sarajevo Six if you really need even more content.

Elusives are a unique sense of tension in a medium that has a shocking lack of good stress. Get over yourselves and leave my elusives alone.

I honestly wouldn't care about elusive targets at all if they weren't unique content that I can't see in any other way. Make the elusive targets be a random NPC in the world that you get one shot at or whatever. But make the brand new characters and schedules and what not be side missions or something. I can get into the stress of only having one chance to pull off a hit. I don't like that I also have to enjoy the new content they created for it because I only ever get to see it once.

Yeah at least they should let you "revisit" an elusive target you've done before for no leaderboard score but just a chance to perfect your killing technique.

Does anyone know a source for synopses of these recently released Hitman comics? It sounds like the writing is absolutely dire, and what's worse, canon.

I've read them and they're... interesting. It basically tells the story of both Diana and 47 growing up and becoming who they are at the start of the series. It's a bit dubious in terms of canon, and the art is sometimes a bit off, but it's not a bad read overall. I'd rank it as better than Absolution's storyline, at any rate.

Like the professional taster who stays in the exact same spot repeating the same lines for anything between 2 and 25(!!) minutes depending on a random number generator. Or elusive targets that arbitrarily introduce new rules, like the dictator that had a mobile hostile zone 5 meters around himself. I can't honestly recall a single elusive target that I enjoyed. So far they've all been chores. Most of the time there isn't even anything clever about getting them. So far all of them are set up to be killed in one very specific way, and if you want to deviate from that or even if you don't you have to hack the gently caress out of the their bodyguard AI or even the target's AI to get them. I get why they introduced the elusive targets, it's kind of a good idea and they did put some money and effort into them with the voice overs and so on, but they turned out lame. I only did them to get the suits.

I hosed up the blackmailer kill like 6 times (after waiting for him to finish on the catwalk) and was only saved by quickly restarting the level. I gave up on the lethal injection and finally managed to get him to investigate the nearby flooding sink and take him out. I found this one of the more difficult ETs so far to be honest because there are just so many people around all the time coming and going.
