Dark_Swordmaster posted:The best part about doing that is despite the fact that it's in front of dozens of people who are watching you very intently it's still a Silent Assassin kill... Because it was a death match, as far as the audience was concerned someone was supposed to die.

Is anyone else getting a graphical bug in Showstopper where some of the specular lighting on floors and walls is purple for some reason? Also some framerate hitching. Should I switch from DX12 to 11?

Moartoast posted:At most, they'll eventually release the first two training missions (i.e, stuff from the beta) as a demo, which I'd actually be pretty okay with. The game already supports that, the Paris level is for some reason counted as DLC and it wasn't included in the initial pre-load. So people who pre-loaded the game and played it before the Paris 'DLC' downloaded were able to play the tutorial levels before they were told to buy Paris.

Is there a decent way to get rid of Dahlia's bodyguard? I want to do the challenge where you snap her neck when she's fixing the laptop but he stands there looking at her the whole time.

Strudel Man posted:Probably last question: How can you actually use the auction invitation you find in the bathroom? It doesn't seem like it lets you go upstairs... You can't just walk backstage to get to the stairs, you need to go outside to the party on the east side of the mansion and walk to the back where there a second guarded entrance where you show the invitation.

Apparently it's being announced next week."IO news update posted:The unfortunate news is that we’re pushing out the Elusive Targets until closer to the planned release of the next episode, Sapienza in April, but you’ll get two Escalation Contracts coming each week until the release of Sapienza and between these and the new challenges, you will be entertained for quite some time. Next week, you’ll know exactly when Sapienza will arrive. Stay tuned for that.

I didn't manage anything spectacular, just sniped him from the clock tower while he was in front of the house. Did have a close call trying to get out, I didn't move fast enough on the way down and almost ran into the guards running up to investigate. Managed to duck into that weird unused office and get out of an alternate exit.

I was going to drop the bell on him, but I got impatient waiting for he to get into position. Eventually saw him go into the basement and just stuck a remote bomb next to the door and waited for him to come back out. Did end up killing some guards while infiltrating the church, surprised the small firefight didn't make them evacuate the target.

Looks like we have another Elusive Target tomorrow too.quote:To keep you ahead of the game, we want to make sure you know what to expect next week, as there’s a lot happening in-game and we don’t want you to miss it. There’s also the chaos and excitement of E3, so a heads-up before all of that will make sure you are ready for Elusive Target #4 – The Sensation. Halfway down the page

I waited around for so long waiting for him to drink so I knew which glass to poison, guess that explains why he never drank. I ended up just shooting him and running like hell to the exit before word spread about me. Probably the least stealthy assassination I've ever done.

In case anyone was wondering about there being seven episodes but only six locations announced, there is no unannounced seventh location. Next month's Summer Bonus Episode counts as one of the seven episodes. One of the guys from IO was on Giant Bomb's E3 evening show last night and confirmed that the bonus episode is one of the seven (2:30:00 in this video).

One of the guys from IO called the game 'season one' in an interview at E3, so it seems likely that they're planning to do more if the game is successful enough.

I failed to do anything stylish and just followed them until they went into the shop by the escape car, killed the target and immediately hopped into the car before the bodyguards could open fire.

Have to say that I'm getting sick of Paris, I'm pretty sure that the majority of the ETs have been on that map. At least each map having it's own unlockable suit shows that there should be plenty more ETs and at least one on each map.

Oh poo poo, the new location specific suits you unlock from ETs aren't locked to their respective maps like the default suits, it's letting me use the Tux with gloves on other maps. That's awesome.

Dr_0ctag0n posted:I don't understand the hype behind doom. It's a FPS game that could have been released any time within the past decade and the mechanics and game play are pretty weak compared to almost any other major title this year. It's really good and nobody had any expectations for it. Id had spent years making a Call of Duty clone with demons before cancelling it and restarting, then all the footage of it looked like poo poo, the multiplayer beta was garbage and no review copies were sent out. Everyone thought it was going to be crap then it turned out to be one of the best singleplayer campaigns in years. The multi was still poo poo though.

I feel I was robbed on this one. I set off the fire alarm to get rid of the guards and jabbed him with the syringe as soon as the coast was clear but a waiter on the other end of the restaurant saw me through a wall and the guards started shooting before I could make it to an exit. Should have prepped the Tuktuk rather than running for the boat.

drat it, I lost Silent Assassin right at the last minute. Had no problem hitting him with an emetic syringe and then poisoning his water, grabbed the files but then I remembered I needed to erase to security footage. Distracted the guard with the vacuum cleaner but I took a wrong turn and ran back into him after erasing the footage and was spotted.

 Complete accident, suit only too. I was going for Sniper Assassin and he was spending ages talking to someone in the office in the town square. I couldn't get a shot and I was just going to wait for him to move but then I noticed he was standing under the chandelier. I actually got tagged by a camera on my way to the extract, had to risk sneaking into the building and hope the camera hub was in the same spot. Still was, still unattended.

Huh, I was looking at the back of the box release in my local Game today and Colorado isn't on the disc. It's a free download if you get the disc, I guess they couldn't get the whole game on the disc for some reason, but why choose episode five of six to be the downloaded one?

qbert posted:What things are inaccessible in offline mode, besides leaderboards and contracts? I never played offline but if everything else is still there at least I can dick around. Actually they updated offline mode a while back, you can now use whatever you've unlocked offline. You just can't unlock new stuff or do challenges and stuff. If they're going to take the servers down I'd hope they would put out a patch that gives the game as much functionality offline as possible.

The Elusive Targets are neat, but I really don't think they'd stand-up very well if they were repeatable. They are at most a new unique NPC (or two on occasion) and a few extra guards tied to them with a modicum of extra scripting. The only thing that makes them stand out is the limited time that they're available and only having one chance at doing it (ignoring being able to restart the mission if you haven't killed them or been killed yourself).

There are three versions of Sapienza and two versions of Marrakesh, the alternate versions come from the seventh 'bonus' episode which didn't include a new map but instead three alternate versions of existing maps (little odd that two of those maps are Sapienza)

Drunken Baker posted:I uninstalled the game a while ago because it takes up so much room on the Xbox. I was originally thinking of buying the physical copy thinking that (maybe? Dunno how) it'd take up less room and probably install quicker than downloading... Dude, both the Xbox One and PS4 install the entire game to the HDD when you put in a disc. It doesn't matter if you buy a game digitally or physically theses days, it's going to take up a ton of space no matter what. The only real difference between the two is whether or not the console will ask you to put in a disc when you start a game.
