Since I unlocked the emetic dart gun I don't think I've used anything else as my starting weapon. It's by far the best diguise getter/bodyguard remover in the game

God, that loving bread basket in Bangkok. Why is it so attractive to every puking target? WHY

Bread is very porous and is good for soaking up puke.

However, for the benefit of new players, there is a solution to the conundrum of the Wrong Vomit Spot: \send a rando to puke in the annoying spot and "occupy" it, then your real target will find the second closest puke spot

I've been playing The Icon and it's really made me wish instinct mode had some kind of trespassing highlight. I really would've expected a lot greater access to the movie set than the movie crew disguise provides.

Tried a series of complicated emetic poisonings on the newest ET but kept getting caught. Finally just said gently caress it, started in the suite, climbed down to the restaurant, threw Napoleon Blownaparte into his path then detonated it after climbing to the ground floor, killing him, his wife and several bodyguards  Got the title Can Maker which I've never seen before and I'm not sure what it means!

I got Melon Man on my first run through the Carpathian Mountains train. I went out of my way to kill everyone on the train, kicking a few off the side but shooting most in the head with pistol, shotgun, or SMG. There's a list of all of them here, but it doesn't have criteria for most of them.

I think that might just be datamined, I'm not sure you can get half of those (or other ones just always take priority) e: Weren't you able to start as a hacker in Colorado before? I don't have the option anymore. I don't really play it enough to recall. I just beaned everyone in the house then chucked the guy over the railing and called it a day lol. I brought emetics but he just wouldn't stand up. RBA Starblade fucked around with this message at 17:07 on Aug 19, 2022 |

You definitely could, it was the easiest way through most routes since hacker has access to most everywhere and starts near where all of the targets except Army Woman go

They disable specific starts on certain ETs and it's usually a good way to figure out where the target is lol

You do get a bit of chatter from whoever ends up moving bodies, or in some cases in multi-target maps, but I do wish we could get a bit more dialogue from characters about the method of assassination. One of my favorite bits in Berlin - which is an incredible level - is when you pull off the DJ kill and one of the assassins comments,"Wow, what incredibly bad luck!" and the handler lambasts him for being an idiot and not getting that it was 47.  Also while I'm casually dictating enormously difficult tasks to programmers having to take into account multiple variables, bring back the newspapers from Blood Money too!

The Hokkaido nurse in the stem cell room will chat with you dressed as a surgeon after you kill Soders. "Oh my god, what happened?" "He died." Also if you drain the stem cells, she will go to the morgue to get more, but after she picks them up she will just stand there forever, and then knocking her out lets you pick up Lethal Stem Cells without ever using any poison.

I hate getting into the club in Marrakesh, is there an invite somewhere I can just grab? Also, who has the tablet in the Mr Giggles ET? I kept hearing someone in there talking vaguely, but I couldn’t work out who it was.

If we’re talking Night Marrakech, there’s also an invite on a table to the left of the main entrance. Wait until the waiter tends to some drinks, vault through over the wall from the street and grab it as you run past.

Green: pick this door, you need to wait until the black dots on the minimap are absent or looking away, sometimes you get unlucky and it takes ages for a break in the traffic NPCs with cards: Yellow: guard who patrols along here, it's one of the guards who's having a conversation if you start nearby Magenta: woman in black pant suit comes out of the club and walks a lap around the building Blue: woman in a white lace dress comes to the gate here to have a smoke

I might misremember but, isn’t there an invite just sitting on a table outside the club in night Marrakech ? In the above diagram, follow the beginning of the magenta arrow until you’re at the corner of the club. Vault the window right before the corner, swipe the card, vault back out. The server there has his back turned most of the time, but not all the time. Also you don’t need an invite for the club to do the Mr Giggles ET. He carries the key to the club back door and there’s a server disguise inside.

I really would've expected a lot greater access to the movie set than the movie crew disguise provides. I was very confused when I finally got around to playing through patient zero, and revisiting the hotel the loitering area just on top of the stairs but before the art gallery kept counting as trespassing a few steps past the stairs. "What? Why? Did I forget a step? I thought it was walk in-" And then I solved(?) it by just rushing past into the art gallery before anyone could react. I'm sure I could have crawled in through a window or something, but strange. I am not very good at this game. So I am glad that standard professional difficulty life lets me stumble around trying to figure out ways to arrange for RFID coin kills where a simple remote bomb would be a million times better and also frisk proof.

Back in H2 I tried to cheese it with the shock phone and screwed up so bad it killed someone else after I got the documents, so I proceeded to slowly and carefully knock out the entire upstairs and then chucked his body over the railing for an accident kill

I also believe, and this is from way back when the ET was released first, that poison kills count too right?

I assumed not, because it doesn't count for the ninja escalation on Hokkaido.

Oh, I used a lethal syringe and I got the kill and the Silent Assassin both ticked off, I have always assumed lethal syringe deaths are counted as accidents? I didn't think to check since I figured the mission would fail if you didn't do an accident kill, but it made no actual difference to successfully pulling off the ET?
