>silent assassin wanted by police
what? whenever I played these games, it always said "terrorist wanted by police". were we just playing on different patches?
Is this bait? I can't tell with zoomers. That's how you got your performance rating in those days instead of souless UI telling you got your 2 out of 5 stars and shit.
you guys are getting baited by someone literally lying about the game. there was no censorship. if you cant load up the game and check for yourself right now, then why do you care?
Nah, she was always intending to bait The Constant. She gains The Constant’s trust, which allows her to dismantle Providence from the inside while 47 whacks Arthur Edwards. It’s the perfect plan.
It fell flat for me for that exact reason. She'd done it before and there wasn't anything significantly different enough for me to believe it wasn't happening again.
Will they continuously have "seasonal" shit like the Home Alone Paris map or the ice Hokkaido map, or did I miss out and once Freelancer is released, they are done with the game? And is that shit all time exclusive? I just finished the Hokkaido map for the ice pick and iceballer.
How do you get that much replay value out of it? I spent 99 buckeroos on hitman 2 and 3 and I beat every mission once and lost steam afterwards. The DLC is just the same maps with a different scenario.
I guess the goal for me was not just to kill the target once but get familiar with the maps. To know all the different ways into important places, NPC routines, etc. There was always something new to discover each time I restarted a mission. I only played 1 and 2, but my favorite map has to be Sapienza. It has that comfy "you're on vacation" atmosphere.
lmao never tried new hitmans because I thought they piss and shit all over the setting, but now I kind of want to smash shit with this thing.
Are there any other features like that in other maps? Can I drive and crash cars/vehicles?
>I thought they piss and shit all over the setting
that was absolution >Are there any other features like that in other maps?
yes >Can I drive and crash cars/vehicles?
no
Sadly no driving, but you can still get people run over on some maps if NPCs are operating a vehicle. In fact in HM2 there's a job at a big race track and you can potentially off both your targets at the same time by kicking one onto the trace track infront of the other's car, killing them both.
almost all equipment already carried over though - literally all guns in the safehouse were safe. it was just tools were the exception. this seems like a fair compromise
>it was just tools were the exception.
finding a lockpick in a level should be a reward after working around locked doors. now it doesnt matter and you can just buy a lockpick that you bring on every mission forever.

the lockpick is the most overpowered item in the game >opens any locked door in the same time it takes to use the actual key
lol, okay
they should make it take longer and randomize the time it takes just to fuck with degenerate speedrunners
These changes seem to cover basically every issue I saw youtubers bring up, nothing to complain about. Especially when IOI's usual method of dealing with issues is just handwaving them as features
I don't like the permanent weapons. I'll give them a pass if they cost a fucking lot or if you can only get one after beating a campaign for the first time.
The trilogy was great I'm a long life fan and finally got around to playing it. Only thing that's missing is the menacing soundtrack Blood Money had. It didn't have to go the same dark route, but music definitely adds to a game's presentation, theme and tone. The targets, some of them felt like caricatures of evil villains.
A lot of NPC chatter was immersion breaking at times and outright goofy. I ignored the story completely, I have nothing to say about it, overall good games, just at times felt like I was playing an epic prank on the targets
NPCs turning their heads independent of their bodies. Sometimes a guard will be stood still but will look around. It's a little bit of RNG that frustrates speedrunners because they might have a really good route that becomes tedious because sometimes a guard will see them and sometimes he won't.
a guard wont look directly forward the whole time, theyll turn their head side to side, which can get you seen if youre not fully out of their peripheral. its literally a good thing.
Back in the olden days, an NPC's vision cone was attached to their torso rather than their head. They eventually patched it, speedrunners hated the change because NPC idle animations which show the person turning their head make the game less predictable; you could sneak through a gap on one playthrough but fail on the next because the guard decided to scratch his neck
berlin was fucking amazing the first time. walking through the club with the music blasting and hunting down the agents made you feel so fucking cool. then the gimmick is gone on replays and all youre left with a map thats slightly too big with a convoluted layout and way too many sidepaths that arent even clearly paths.
i actually havent played mendoza much so i cant clarify as well but its just not fun or interesting the couple times i have played it.
Berlin gets better on replays because the targets are more free form and behave more like regular guards, which makes it feel even more sandboxy.
If you want an overrated level, look no further than Dartmoor— Now that’s a level that’s amazing on the first playthrough, but suffers on repeat playthroughs.
the worst thing about dartmoor is the exits are all a million miles away for literally no reason. but yes, the actual mission isnt that great, but it still has a lot of options, unlike berlin which has no mission stories because theres not really anything complex going on in the level. and the dartmoor level itself is actually well laid out.
>What was 47 thinking in this moment?
He's thinking about Dalia's you know what, and hoping Diana never finds out that he faked her death in Paris to have her for himself.
The Iceman himself said the same thing, but he apparently was full of shit about some things. Apparently offed a guy in his truck because he wanted a hit on his wife and kid. I get it.
Yup, look it up. Iceman was real, and he did work for people like the Gambino family, he was a bad motherfucker. Just self indulged a lot, but he had his values and what you could call morals.
Dude was so slick, his own family didn't know he was a hitman and worked for some prominent crime/mafia families. To them, he was just dad, and he had to leave for work, not knowing the brutality that man unleashed on people.
Gave someone 30 mins to pray to god to save him, when the 30mins was up, shot him in the head. Cold blooded.
Cause I skipped the "a" in your post I thought you wrote that The Iceman wanted to hit on the truck drivers Wife and kid, and after re-reading it, it all makes sense now. What a silly goose I am.
>if I was a hitman, it would be no women
Disgusting sexist behavior. Women are capable of evils men can't even think of, and it's time you stop putting the pussy on a pedestal. Equal rights, equal fights.
that's not the game that's your network, your phone, someone else's phone, laptop, tablet, or some other device fuckin with your ability to play
trust me
I've been dealing with this shit for over 10 years
that's what it is
because if you eliminate ALL OF THOSE THINGS within a great enough radius of your fuckin wifi signal
you should be fine >but who the fuck has that ability, right?
Playing on steam deck is an exercise in frustration
even when it isn't disconnecting, if you're too far away from your wifi and the connection is weak, simple shit like opening certain menus takes ages because it has to check your connection every fucking time.
I played the entire WoA trilogy without using instinct because I forgot it existed after the tutorial. Went fine. Just don't press the button if you don't like it.
Let me get this straight: someone who doesn't own any of the games will pay 70 burgerbucks on WoA and get all 3 games. But someone who owns 1 and 2 will to have to pay the same 70 shekels for only the last third of the series?
you can buy it now for less, but yes it was a shekel scheme. they literally announced it on the last couple days of the winter sale, after most people had bought a bunch of shit they ultimately wouldnt need. people that already owned all 3 wont even get a bonus like a free suit or anything.
>game has partial nudity under the female npc's clothes >nipples modeled and all
First Far Cry 5, and now this? I cant actually show it on a blue board, but thats pretty fucking based
>played the shit out of 2016 >played Hokkaido who knows how many times >just now find out there's a sneaky path from the hot springs to the garage
Did they add that later or has it been in there since forever?
>guest accidentally gets too close to a private table at a restaurant >security immediately starts firing at him
Some of these escalations are a bit over the top
Skill issue?
Is a coin the best choice if you want to throw something to distract people?
It has to make a sound, people shouldn't wonder how it ended up there, it shouldn't look suHispanicious when you're getting frisked.
>Shit, I forgot to hide that one body by the silo sniper nest
>SAchad
The fuck they did with series
you're not an SA chad just because it's the only one your IBM can run, ESL gay
>cant wait to dump this bitch in the freezer later
Why would he want to kill Diana?
>my feet hurt
>music's too loud
>I wish I was garroting someone
It really do be like that, tho
>why does my body hurt when I touch her gloves
He did nothing wrong.
>Joseph killed. Suspect money involved. Clarence Police blood is
what did they mean by this?
>Silent wanted.
>Assassin by police.
>silent assassin wanted by police
what? whenever I played these games, it always said "terrorist wanted by police". were we just playing on different patches?
Is this bait? I can't tell with zoomers. That's how you got your performance rating in those days instead of souless UI telling you got your 2 out of 5 stars and shit.
every copy is personalized 😉
just like the hip game streamer d00ds say on youtube
>getting silent assassin on that stage
Damn makes me want to replay it and try.
Kind of weird the Clarence story is the centrepiece when there is a bigger story on the bottom left
isn't that a kane and lynch reference?
This was the last real Hitman game tbh. Making people ragdoll through the air with the silverballers was fun.
i know hitman 3 censored the panties, but what about Diana? Whats her situation like?
im gonna take the lack of responses as a 'yes its censored'. phooey
I’m actually okay with the censorship because it was done for file compression reasons rather than as a censorship choice.
>I’m actually okay with the censorship
have a nice day. I really, really mean it. Commit suicide immediately you subhuman soulless shit eating golem.
you guys are getting baited by someone literally lying about the game. there was no censorship. if you cant load up the game and check for yourself right now, then why do you care?
>why do you care about censorship
have a nice day.
you are an illiterate retard that doesnt even play this game.
>there was no censorship
so you can view Diana's panties? I will literally buy the game right this instant if the answer is yes
yes. they just removed that shitty white lace panty that was textured like it was made of plastic and melted into the skin.
>yes
interesting. big if true ive been wanting to do things to her anyway like in the wine vat webm
The regular NPC's have voids, but all targets and important NPC's still have underwear.
>The regular NPC's have voids, but all targets and important NPC's still have underwear.
they arent white, but i can work with this
Also im like 99% certain the dude next to her is voiced by Yuri Lowenthal. Its so weird hearing Yosuke from Persona while doing this
Wow A WOPPING 1000MB SAVED!!!! You loser
>I need to erase some videotapes
holy shit
>morons could be here
>with a car you can go anywhere you want
My headcanon is diana always intended to sell out 47 and pretended that she did it as a double twist because 47 got out
Nah, she was always intending to bait The Constant. She gains The Constant’s trust, which allows her to dismantle Providence from the inside while 47 whacks Arthur Edwards. It’s the perfect plan.
dude, its the second time she does shit like that. play blood money
It fell flat for me for that exact reason. She'd done it before and there wasn't anything significantly different enough for me to believe it wasn't happening again.
I don’t think it was meant to be shocking.
It was meant to be a member berry moment so long time fans knew exactly where this was going.
>long time fans
So, people who only played Blood Money?
>Please tell me she has a cock
Do you think Agent 47 is good at Tango?
looking at how stiff his posture is with everything, no
he can be pretty malleable if he wants to
now post the one where he tries it not in the ninja suit.
this?
yes
>0:47
nice.
Why so slow?
it will always be slow unless you wear the ninja suit
>0:51
meh. I do like everything else about the webm
>feet dont match the arrows
>massive text blocking said arrows but hes doing it perfectly anyway
>ah fuck, im gonna have to pretend i like sex again
Will they continuously have "seasonal" shit like the Home Alone Paris map or the ice Hokkaido map, or did I miss out and once Freelancer is released, they are done with the game? And is that shit all time exclusive? I just finished the Hokkaido map for the ice pick and iceballer.
no one knows yet we just have to wait and see
Freelancer is very likely the last major content update the game will receive
Weren't they doing a second map along Ambrose?
One week til freelancer bros
>easy
This pic makes me wish more people would wear high heels in real life.
>I wish I was fighting battler right now
Played 2 for like 350 hours and lost motivation shortly before 100%-ing it. Many such cases in my library.
I really wanna play the new trilogy but I also don't want to spend more $40-$60 on each one.
everyone that owns hitman 3 gets 1 and 2 for free on the 26th.
wait until the 26th when they redo the game
https://www.ioi.dk/hitman-3-to-world-of-assassination/
I heard they're gonna turn the trilogy into a single game. Wait for that to be discounted if you're ok with waiting.
Me? What are you doing on Ganker?
the madlad did it
i have 3 100%ed as well. working on 1 atm for autism completion
How do you get that much replay value out of it? I spent 99 buckeroos on hitman 2 and 3 and I beat every mission once and lost steam afterwards. The DLC is just the same maps with a different scenario.
>spend $100
>get about 3 hours of playtime
id be embarrassed to admit that.
pic related, I loved every single map. They felt alive and so real.
Unironically you are playing the game wrong
Seems like the game isn't for you. Happens.
You have to replay the missions over and over again, trying different strategies and experimenting with different tools and approaches.
Basically, you treat it like a sandbox game.
I guess the goal for me was not just to kill the target once but get familiar with the maps. To know all the different ways into important places, NPC routines, etc. There was always something new to discover each time I restarted a mission. I only played 1 and 2, but my favorite map has to be Sapienza. It has that comfy "you're on vacation" atmosphere.
>She seems nice, sucks I have to kill her..Ugh, another day in paradise lol
Like something out of a cartoon.
lmao never tried new hitmans because I thought they piss and shit all over the setting, but now I kind of want to smash shit with this thing.
Are there any other features like that in other maps? Can I drive and crash cars/vehicles?
>I thought they piss and shit all over the setting
that was absolution
>Are there any other features like that in other maps?
yes
>Can I drive and crash cars/vehicles?
no
>that was absolution
this new one has a huge press straight out of wile e. coyote's ACME order, let's not get ahead of ourselves
did you not read the post i replied to where that press is what got him interested?
Sadly no driving, but you can still get people run over on some maps if NPCs are operating a vehicle. In fact in HM2 there's a job at a big race track and you can potentially off both your targets at the same time by kicking one onto the trace track infront of the other's car, killing them both.

>those freelancer changes
is there a changelog released?
https://www.ioi.dk/hitman-freelancer-from-ctt-to-launch/
pretty good changes across the board, imo
>t. played the beta
the only one im not fine with is the permanent equipment. kind of defeats the point.
almost all equipment already carried over though - literally all guns in the safehouse were safe. it was just tools were the exception. this seems like a fair compromise
Yeah but if you failed a mission with them you would lose them. Which is not the case for these ones
oh, i didnt read it that way. i read it as them just working like guns, since they mention the persistence specifically in relation to gear walls
>it was just tools were the exception.
finding a lockpick in a level should be a reward after working around locked doors. now it doesnt matter and you can just buy a lockpick that you bring on every mission forever.

>permanent gear
>penalty for killing civilians
both of these are cringe, but overall these are the changes that I wanted. Glad they actually listened to the feedback
>fails to elaborate
dont say anything or your going to ruin my excitement ive made sure to not watch any videos on the new mode
The trilogy was great I'm a long life fan and finally got around to playing it. Only thing that's missing is the menacing soundtrack Blood Money had.

Yeah I liked "angel of death" vibes hitman used to have. The new trilogy feels more like modern james bond/mission impossible spy flick stuff.
>he new trilogy feels more like modern james bond
Maybe this bodes well for the new James Bond game they are making?
the target
>Headturning is STILL in
Nooo! My Speedr- I mean, casual playthroughs!
what is headturning?
NPCs turning their heads independent of their bodies. Sometimes a guard will be stood still but will look around. It's a little bit of RNG that frustrates speedrunners because they might have a really good route that becomes tedious because sometimes a guard will see them and sometimes he won't.
a guard wont look directly forward the whole time, theyll turn their head side to side, which can get you seen if youre not fully out of their peripheral. its literally a good thing.

good. seethe, speedtrannies
Never played a hitman game tho, I remember the magazine ads.
That looks nothing like 47.
47 Should be a creepy autistic Finnish man.
who maps run to L1 and reload to R1? how do the devs expect me to play this game?
I map run to L4
deck chads can't stop winning
berlin, chongqing, and mendoza fucking SUCK. if you disagree youre a 3-only fag that doesnt realize what theyre missing.
colorado is still the worst though
Chongqing sure. But Berlin and Mendoza are top-tier.
berlin was fucking amazing the first time. walking through the club with the music blasting and hunting down the agents made you feel so fucking cool. then the gimmick is gone on replays and all youre left with a map thats slightly too big with a convoluted layout and way too many sidepaths that arent even clearly paths.

I liked all the levels, but I didn't like Colorado until after they changed it, so you didn't have to do the tornado shelter shit every time to leave.
I'd rather kill Diana but fuck it, I'll settle for doing that in Absolution.
>What was 47 thinking in this moment?
He's thinking about Dalia's you know what, and hoping Diana never finds out that he faked her death in Paris to have her for himself.
Wow, that hand model is kinda fucked up.

I don't know, if I was a hitman, it would be no women and/or kids. Then you think, what amount would you take that would make you forget those values?
The Iceman himself said the same thing, but he apparently was full of shit about some things. Apparently offed a guy in his truck because he wanted a hit on his wife and kid. I get it.
>he wanted a hit on his wife and kid.
Yup, look it up. Iceman was real, and he did work for people like the Gambino family, he was a bad motherfucker. Just self indulged a lot, but he had his values and what you could call morals.

because even a single map is a lot of work and majority io workforce has been shifted into the 007 game.

GOOD MORNING SIRS!
every fucking time
good morning dawood
Love this map just because of all the India shitposting. I always imagine all the NPCs yelling at me in those silly accents.
I’m amazed they got away with Dawood being a sleazy pajeet stereotype, right down to the accent and dress sense.
hes literally the pajeet power fantasy. if a skeezy indian has a role model, its some form of dawood.
it's not even a stereotype really, people like him exist
Of course, but he’s exactly the kind of Indian that gets meme’d on Ganker. The only thing he’s missing is being a call centre scammer.
You could genuinely imagine him saying “Do not redeem”.
Remember when Hitman had atmosphere? When you were scared to walk through a door instead of batman xray visioning the entire map?
remember when you kept walking through the same door a thousand times because something went wrong and you quickloaded?
I played the entire WoA trilogy without using instinct because I forgot it existed after the tutorial. Went fine. Just don't press the button if you don't like it.
Let me get this straight: someone who doesn't own any of the games will pay 70 burgerbucks on WoA and get all 3 games. But someone who owns 1 and 2 will to have to pay the same 70 shekels for only the last third of the series?
that's why you must pay less amount of shekels before 26th
you can buy it now for less, but yes it was a shekel scheme. they literally announced it on the last couple days of the winter sale, after most people had bought a bunch of shit they ultimately wouldnt need. people that already owned all 3 wont even get a bonus like a free suit or anything.

That’s been there
