Veotax posted:Nah, I was a fan of the episodic release. As you said, it got me to replay the levels a ton. I know way more about the maps in Hitman 2016 than I do in Hitman 2. Some would say it was the only effective episodic video game release. I certainly preferred it to 2/3's release style.

Sekenr posted:What makes this series great is not just you are thrown into puzzle box and figure out a way to solve, but that the devs are very consistent that every target has a story, a context and aspirations that you end It's insane how much back story they wrote for the targets when you click on them in the planning window.

I know because I'm a moron. It's obviously a breadcrumb for the "story mission" that is disregarded the moment you start opening the level up with alternate starts.

Someone explain to me why you should be unable to save on escalations. It feels like a pointless restriction to me. Getting these 60 coins is infuriating when the last target either drops 7 instead of 8 coins (maybe because I'm knocking them both out first?) or the last coin gets irretrievably stuck underneath an air conditioner.

The Question IRL posted:It took me ages to figure out how to get all coins as I'd sometimes get ones stuck under consoles/helicopters. 99% sure that it was actually a bug and the 8th coin wasn't dropping because I had the last two targets KO'd at the same time. A couple times I never did see where the 8th coin would have gone, but gently caress attempting that last level again, especially when the achievement gives nothing and I already have maxed mastery.

I kinda like what they're doing mechanically with the Pride escalation, and I'm excited to see what it matures into by the time they release the last escalation of the pack. It's a stronger argument than ever in favor of being able to save in escalations, though. If I get spotted one more time WHILE I'm injecting a target, I'm grabbing that sniper rifle and turning the bird into a thanksgiving turkey.

Shotgun contracts might be my fave.

Aside from Silvio's upset stomach (which I assume is scripted, though I haven't tested emetic-ing him in that general area), are there places where NPCs will be drawn to a cliff or ledge to vomit? Maybe in Berlin?

Fuzzy McDoom posted:There are loads of these, just used one in the new Dartmoor featured contract to make a guy vomit at the edge of a pond. Definitely a few along the rivers in Whittleton Creek and Santa Fortuna. I think some of the cliffs in Sgail but not entirely sure. In Haven Island you can make some people wade out to the edge of the deep ocean. Probably more I forgot about. Oh wow. I've only ever used toilets or been disappointed by trash bins, so glad this is part of the default behavior and not just a script! I'll have to play around a bit more.

I've been playing around with the Nvidia screenshot tool, and it's a half decent camera mode despite depth of field not working properly (47 is never in focus, near as I can tell). I think this might give me a 3rd wind in enjoying this game.

The IDEA of elusive targets is great (rotating cast of shitheads to off in hopefully fun ways and keep you engaged and interacting with the game over a longer period of time) but there's just too many negatives. I'm forcing myself to hold off and not spoil myself on unannounced ones, but eventually I'll just set up that peacock server thing so I can do them whenever I like.

I assumed this meant like, pushing them into the river or drowning them or something but no. Also only H1 and H2 location contracts will help you get bird suit. H3 maps have a different set of challenges.

Red Oktober posted:I'm trying to take this one out from the watertower start. There's a clear line of sight to his getaway car, so I think if I can put the first shot into the car in such a way that it both panics him and makes the guards spread out, I should be able to blow it with the second shot in a way that he's the only one in the blast. I got frustrated and did it boring-like. Hacker start, run down and slap a micro remote explosive on the suv he walks past at the start, trigger when only he is in the blast. Back upstairs to lock pick the safe and away into the night. Would love to see if this is possible! Guess I should finally try out peacock.

Picayune posted:Oh, man, they did some fun stuff (and also some hard stuff) with Patient Zero. I ended up liking that plotline quite a bit - the sniper level was unique and actually pretty funny - but the final level required a lot from the player, no matter how you handled it. Idk if it's cool to admit this or not I enjoy hitman a lot, and I've SA'd every single elusive target so far in H3 figuring my own poo poo out....but I never beat Patient Zero Hokkaido or the Lust escalation. My brain just shuts down and doesn't understand what they're asking me to do.

I've kinda fallen off as the drip feed of content has fallen off slightly, but Hitman 3 getting VR is the one thing that might tip me into buying a VR rig. It's crazy how good this game is. I still need to try peacock out, I keep getting weirded out that they'll find out I'm modding somehow and take away all my progress.
