Hitman Thread

>IO is today putting out a big update for the latest Hitman game that makes unlocks work offline.

>The update means all unlockable items earned when connected to the game's servers are saved to an offline profile, so they can be used in Offline Mode.

So whats the excuse now? the game is excellent, cheap and the worst aspect of the always online is out, are shitposters going to admit they are just too cheap to actually buy good games or will they find another excuse to not support developers when they actually learn from their mistakes and focus on what makes their games good? find out in a new episode of Hitman Thread!

Briefcase when

They said they include it on a small patch on Neverever 30

Patch notes
hitman.com/es/updates/november-update-release-notes

nice patch

...

Wait can you use costumes in any location now?

no. my profile is "bugged", I also unlocked Blood Money suit after completing ~3 Elusive Targets, it was few months earlier before 10 Elusive Target was released. But I didn't unclocked Signature Suit with Gloves after completing 13 Elusive Targets though

>Pull an Enemy
>In this update, we've added the ability for 47 to pull people over balconies or out of windows, when he is hanging on a ledge or below the balcony/window.
Unfortunately, there is a known issue for this move: NPC's that see this move will not blame 47, even if they are looking directly at the NPC or at 47.
For that reason, we will remove this ability with our December Update and fix this. It will then be re-introduced with a game update in January, around the same time as the disc release

I need this

Did you complete the 8 Vampire Magician chellenges?
I didn't and it doesn't show up for me

I read that 3 times and I'm yet to underrtand what they are saying, so now you can pull people, but its bugged, so they will remove it in december and readd it again on january? so why adding it now in the first place?

Simple.

They had already submitted the patch before they found the bug.

Because consoles take a month to approve a patch

Consoles holding back the industry as always.

Are you the same person from the last thread who got the disguise?

Because the suit has a description, so I would assume this was intentional

I completed them and I don't have it yet. It's likely a planned unlock for the future since they wrote a description for it.

SUPRISE BITCH

Why do we need 2 threads?

Anyway.

Anyone else on the ninja hunt? I still can't find the third.

The map fucking shaking is getting really tiring. Where is that fucker?

please elaborate

The ninja in Hokkaido.

After you shoot it at the second location the map starts fucking shaking, makes a loud noise.

I'm assuming there is a third location since that's ALL that has happened, but I can't fucking find it.

If you are talking about the secret kaiju easter egg with the lamp, look towards the mountains

But I never heard of a secret Ninja NPC you can hunt

>If you are talking about the secret kaiju easter egg with the lamp, look towards the mountains
I'm very CLEARLY not.

>NPC
Not an NPC. But you not having heard of something means fuck all, because I've found it after it moved once and now the map is shaking, SOMETHING is here.

...

But I thought everyone was saying the third bonus map was in sapienza again.

Personally I wished it was bangkok

That looks just comfy , cannot wait for getting a M4 as the arab and murdering everyone again.

i told you fucking faggots that they're going to do an offline patch when the season ends
hope you guys will burn in hell while i soar in heaven with chuck berry and the guy that sang la bamba

aw fuck i've been waiting for this

apparently this a special xmas event and not the bonus map

WHERE

THE

FUCK

DOES

IT

GO

FROM

HERE

Where did you get this?

ANY RESEARCH FAGS HERE?

I swear months ago in an interview a dev confirmed we'd see Paris again outside the fashion show, obviously implying it would get a bonus mission.

However Landslide appears to be Sapienza, again, since we've had the briefing and target info for months.

What the fuck is happening?

I can't find that interview, maybe someone else knows what I'm talking about or can find it?

What exactly can you do offline? Play all the missions? Unlock stuff? It is really confusing when always online doesn't mean always online.

Play the main/bonus missions. Now you can use the unlocks you have unlocked online.

Still not good, but better.

reddit, im currently looking at this thread reddit.com/r/HiTMAN/comments/5fbr6u/stuff_fixes_not_in_the_patch_notes/

Rank the Levels from best to worst.

Doesn't sound all that bad then. It is still odd that you have to unlock stuff during online play but it is not like you are going to be unable to play the game if the server shuts down in the future.

>escalations
>contracts
>challenges/mastery
>offline
???

Sapienza>Hokkaido>Paris>Bangkok>ColoradoMarrakesh

That's probably an ET, dude.

Have there been any previous events that I missed?

Already bought it off gamestop, downloaded, and patched. Waiting till I beat Dishonored 2 til I start playing it though

nope

Thanks.

I don't see that image anywhere?

I don't really know how reddit works, but i see no mention of it.

reddit.com/r/HiTMAN/comments/5fc28d/christmas_event_incoming/
that thread sorry

So I got the first episode of this game and its pretty fun.

Just need to ask though since I think I remember seeing complaints when it first came out. Is the optimization shit? Running an older graphics card sure, but still have to run things on low for more stable framerate.

COME ON

Maxes out my 970 but it honestly is a cpu thing.

>big update
my ASS

youtube.com/watch?v=lC1SNZex2S8

Bateson going all out

i run it on medium/low with a 680, 70+ fps

Probably never.

Too many physics, animation, interaction and AI issues....apparently.

I'm still holding out hope that they introduce it in some capacity though, even if it's woefully unbalanced, it'd be fun as fuck to have.

What is the general consensus on this game? I loved blood money and contracts but didn't care for absolution. Would I enjoy this one?

what does he say after vroom vroom vroom

It's not better than blood money, but still a good hitman.

Seems to be good aside from a couple of asshurt people.

strawpoll.me/11745584/r

Buggy mess of a really good game.

I think I've encountered maybe 2 or 3 (minor) bugs, I don't think that would make it a buggy mess.

>worst aspect of the always online is out,
The fuck does this even mean? Isn't it still always online?

blood money with more polish/less jank but less charm as well

>It's not better than blood money,

People seriously think this?

Sure the new Hitman is missing a few little things that were great in Blood Money, but overall the new Hitman is leagues better than Blood Money at offering up a fuck huge sandbox Hitman experience.

No, technically it never was. Just certain features that required you to be online, and now one of the main features that was locked away isn't anymore.

>muh anecdotal
Yes, your small amount of time with the game outweighs everyone else's collective experience.

I haven't seen any collective experience, just anecdotal evidence.

You can still use all the things you've unlocked if you happen to disconnect. I imagine you'll still get kicked out of the game if you disconnect while playing though.

Pull up HMF, where actual players talk about the game and not some anonymous circlejerk.

Okay?

ding ding ding

It looks good but how long is it exactly? How long are the episodes? From what I can see there's only 6 or 7 at the moment. I figured there'd be at least 10.

>People seriously think this?
Like I said in another thread, Blood Money is still the pinnacle as far as I'm concerned.

There are a lot of stuff they still need to fix and add in order for it to just "equal" it.


I mean jesus, just the soundtrack is fucking dreadful and dull.

And the game still plays a lot like Absolution despite the changes they made.

IT'S YOU AGAIN, THE DARK VAMPIRE MAGICIAN!

KAITO KID WILL PUT AN OFFICIAL END TO YOUR TYRANNY! THIS JEWEL WILL BE MINE!

What did 47 mean by this?

>IO originally replaced Bateson for Absolution

It's short if you only play each map once. But it's designed for people who like replaying maps over many times to complete the challenges and see everything.

If that's not your thing, then you'll find it very short and complete it after 2 days.

Not the other user, but why not flop out your grievances and join the anonymous circle jerk.

That's literally the reason as to why you're here, why fight it.

Hitman has ALWAYS been a hilariously buggy and readily exploitable series, it comes with the territory of creating extremely systemic and AI driven sandboxes, but the new Hitman isn't at all what i'd describe as "a buggy" mess.

My excuse is that I'm waiting for my new pc

>try to subdue someone out of cover
>teleport through walls into guards

Post speccy.

>but the new Hitman isn't at all what i'd describe as "a buggy" mess.
People playing casually doesn't change the system problems.

It's like glancing over a work of art and declaring it masterpiece without actually looking.

It's what most of these threads have done.

>that makes unlocks work offline.
Wait, really?
And boom, the biggest worry I had about ™ servers going offline in a couple years is gone

I had a feeling they would do this but I was also afraid they wouldn't.

...

i didn't know satan was interested in hitman

Why not discuss your problems with the game rather than wasting everyone's time with shit analogies?

why post a 2year old speccy

>123c

ayy lmao

>why bother doing what you keep doing and are always met with shitposting for your effort
Gee, I wonder.

Surely that's higher than tdp so it would just shut itself off?

If I wait till January to buy the complete 1st season, will I have made a good choice?

pleb

If you live in the US, you should buy it all right now from GameStop via digital download, it's cheap as shit.

...

There's no real reason to wait. The full game is out apart from one small bonus mission. If anything you're just missing out on more elusive targets by waiting.

Does your boyfriend beat you or something?

Fuck, I just bought it off psn for $30...

Servers still down? Or has the update come out?

That was PC master race price only anyway.

Was this supposed to be clever?
