Elusive Targets used to be only three days per but they upped it to a week and then to ten days. With this one they’ve upped it again to two weeks.

Is there a reliable way to do the overflowed sink distraction - strangle routine now? I am sometimes able to do that but a lot of the times the NPC would just turn 180 degrees and I end up doing the face punch thing instead which is not compatible with SA rankings, unfortunately. Also, will I still get an SA rating if the target's body gets found but the killing method was an accident?

I'm glad they upped it because I'm leaving the country for almost 2 weeks in December and don't want to miss one. I think it'd be cool to allow players to replay elusive targets if they succeed at it. I hate knowing that I miss a bunch of dialog or assassination opportunities even when I complete an elusive target.

I would hella not mind it if they had a rotating roster of ETs twice a week honestly. They've already got a backlog of 26 or so from Season 1 after all. (Though they've likely got to update + QA them all.) Let these high profile, season 2 ones roll for 2 weeks a piece like this one is, but have existing ones shuffle through as a bonus thing in addition.

Jack Trades posted:Is there a reliable way to do the overflowed sink distraction - strangle routine now? Well, you could see if you could break the mirror first, so that they don't see your reflection? (Not sure if that works, actually.) I usually just bean them from a distance to avoid them reacting to me sneaking up to them. Just stand a bit off to the side, or something.

Were the earphones in the "backstage" area of the downstairs expo in the Kronstadt building always there, or are they just for the Elusive Target? They put a lot of bespoke work into this one, a unique opportunity and everything. That was cool!

Stay crouched. I have had the problem but I almost never have it if I wait for them to turn the tap off and am not visible in the mirror. There are a lot of small bathrooms where the closet is facing the mirror and there's literally no way to hide in there other than that. For example right now I'm struggling with using the toilet that's right next to where Faba holds his meeting. Nakar posted:Yes. Accident and Poison Kills specifically do not count against your rating or score if the body is found. You will get a notification via picture-in-picture if the body gets found, but it doesn't actually count. Make sure the score tracker actually says it was an Accident/Poison kill though. Neat. Is there any way to see if I have failed SA yet or not during the mission or do I have to finish the mission first to find out whether or not I succeeded?

Just tested it, shooting mirrors doesn't do anything. It just fractures them but you can still be seen.

Jack Trades posted:Is there a reliable way to do the overflowed sink distraction - strangle routine now? Punch glitch has been in the game forever. I'm not entirely sure if it's a real glitch or if it comes when the target turns their head just enough to change it from subdue to punch. Best advice I can give is to try and be careful, come right up directly behind them while crouching, and mind the timing so they're not right about to turn around. And save scum. And never try to strangle someone on stairs- it will always turn into a punch.

Try to use non-lethal melee items as well, I have a much better success rate using those. They're also silent and faster than strangling. I always make sure to carry a hammer/wrench/fish/cocaine brick around for that purpose.

So is it possible to use rooms like these to pick off people without leaving witnesses? The closet (on the right) is right in front of a mirror and the sink and you can't crouch when exiting a closet. Either I'm doing something wrong or you will always get spotted through the mirror when trying to exit the closet. EDIT: Nevermind right after I posted this I think I found a solution. While exiting the closet you can mash the crouch button and you'll barely avoid getting spotted by the skin of your teeth. Jack Trades fucked around with this message at 22:35 on Nov 20, 2018 |

Jack Trades posted:So is it possible to use rooms like these If you're using the overflow sink thing, theres a portion of the "fix that" animation where they bend down under the sink. I haven't tried, but i wouldn't be surprised if they can't see the mirror at that point.

Managed to blow myself the gently caress up with a mine when I tried to throw it as a distraction for the Elusive Target  Now I feel really unenthused about playing the game because I have this giant black mark on my profile. God it sucks having brainworms.

I did 3 or 4 scouting runs of the ET when I found the detonator for the bomb in the lab. The Undying called it a small explosive, so I thought triggering it would only kill him. Turns out, it killed like 3 people. Whoops! But hey, at least he's for sure dead and DEFINITELY won't be back

I HAVE MURDERED SEAN PENN Took out Engineer in Coat Check-in Aaaaand then my Video Card hosed up and I had to restart my computer. Start over, repeat, enter meeting. Meeting ends. Swipe keycard from reception. Use keycard to get into maintenance. Take out lady engineer. Then Security on balcony. Take his disguise. Also I take some apricots. Climb out window near maintenance, climb up to second floor. Get Mark Faba file from Office 2A Go into Server Room, get Stryker (You never know) and destroy evidence. Jump down from balcony to floor below. Go into research lab, into adjacent room, take out researcher, stuff into closet, take his clothes. Scan Mark Faba file to Android. Blend in as researcher. Wait.

You exit the closet into the same stance you had when you entered the closet, so if you were crouched when you entered the closet you will instantly and automatically crouch when you exit the closet which will prevent you from being seen in that scenario. In other news.

I think the way I did the target was pretty easy and simple. -knockout the engineer in the coat check and take his disguise. Hide him in the closet -shoot the camera from coat check -Go to the meeting -After the meeting go through the back side of the room with the android that can kill Knox . Go out to the balcony and climb up the pipe - go to the room on your left and shut off the power. -Wait for the researcher to come turn the power on. Knock him out and take his disguise. Drag him away from the pit if he is to close -Grab the ID in Knox's office. I had to wait for the guard to go look out the window -Scan his face into the android in the lab -escape the way you came in. Easy SA

I'd just hide behind the door. Doors always open inwards, and they even fixed it so you can close doors from where you're hidden without having to circle around to where the door is open. Might as well make use of it.

Regarding Sean Bean: I just watched a youtube video where the user sniped him from the media box at the track, and the "target eliminated" notification popped. But then the "eliminate the target" notification reappeared in the upper left and he wasn't able to complete the mission. Was this a bug, or some body-double fuckery?

Just SAed Sean Bean after one reset. I just knocked out everyone in the lab and then just gave him the old pen in the eye when I was alone with him. That was a really in-depth Elusive Target and if they kept this level of quality up for the ETs that would be amazing.

My sean bean kill was so boring and simple I missed all the flavor, I guess i can only blame myself. Go through the employee gate, knock out the one guard and free access to the floor sean's on. he stops in the room overlooking the race for a long time so i coined+choked every scientist in the room adjacent, then both his body guards and stabbed him with a screwdriver.

Doing the Elusive Target wasn't too complicated. I just lured two body guards from the meeting room with the bathroom sink (waiting until they sponge up the water to avoid the mirror reflection) and then poisoned the coffee. The other people in the room aren't close enough to spot the drink tampering.
