why do you have to twist someone’s words? it’s clear as day. even if that written example may have been considered as having a different meaning, here they say the exact thing!

True but:
The setting inspired by the ending of Léon first and foremost proposes you to start shooting. I guess it’s the first thing we all did.
Fournier himself is in an open area surrounded by SWAT.
But then we learned about the fireman.
And how to lure the SWAT away using car alarms, to isolate Fournier for a brief moment. Or you could snipe him if you want.
Different escape routes.
See what I mean?
But the mission doesn’t require you to kill anyone except Fournier. And I know that I SA’d it on the first playthrough, it really didn’t feel like it encouraged me to do a shootout.

it’s not bullshit. first, they promised a different thing. second, this installment is basically a mission pack so it’s reasonable to expect that it’ll have replayable missions
this game isn’t designed to be played as a consecutive narrative. it has “to be continued…” screens and 3 different styles of cutscenes in it. doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy that but it’s so obviously focused on gameplay much more
well, that’s the exact reason for worrying. less content is not a good thing when we won’t be seeing another hitman for the next 5 years at least

Because not everyone will refer to something the same way each time. People make mistakes that go unnoticed or sometimes they automatically assume people will know what they are talking about.
I maintain that trailer is a failure to communicate what they meant properly and that the fandom took what they said at face value and ran with it without confirmation.
Either way try to enjoy the other five levels and the other ones you have on offer. We have 20 levels and not every single one is going to be equally valued by a player.
True, i’ve been positive these months but 5 level mastery ending, narrative ending, feels like out of place in this game, actually. Hitman WoA is 70% gameplay, 30% story

Nice assumption

Yeah but I remember that when they announced that, everybody here took it has a confirmation that there were 6 full sandboxes and they never warned that it wasn’t the case

They dont make good Shootouts anymore these days. Meet your Brother and Redemption at Gontranno, only a whisper in the wind…

it’s an assumption based on previous experience with hawkes bay which also had 5 mastery levels
and no support of that mode initially, as far as i remember.
that’s very likely especially if it’s a shootout
and i didn’t find that mission very good
what else could it possibly sound like? it was a promotional video, you know

they directly reflect the amount of content the level has to offer. how many starting locations could there be with 5 mastery levels, for example? how many agency pickups? how many new items(which isn’t that important though)? we already know the answer because we had a mission with 5 mastery levels
i agree and believe we should’ve had 6 missions and a proper small finale for that exact reason. or they could’ve just not told us that each mission would have 20 mastery levels.
and we don’t really get new features this time so it’s not justifiable the way it was in h2 when they were in a bad state financially, btw

Damn. Even IOI is flat out revealing all the locations.
I’m not gonna check that blog post out, that’s for sure. Muting this thread!

This. NZ, WC, NY and the resort are all better than Colorado, Columbia and a number of other mastery 20 maps

Fair, I can see how people have though that way. The shootouts I had seen in Hitman before that were “kill everyone” challenges in remote locations so I didn’t get the same feeling from that one. Moreover, the first mission in the game had a similar setup and it was easy to SA so I guess I got a similar impression.
Quite late to the party, didnt read all what in this topic. So, is the last mission snow, or does it just look like it?
And argentinia, woah. Im very, very impressed by the huge amount of awesome and unique locations in this game so far. People said Santa Fortuna was already “like” Mendoza, but if I look at this, this beats it by a long shot. Seriously, the new maps look damn impressive.
Hey I just realised there is no US level this time! This is great!
