Well, it does say Classic Baller, and the Classic Baller is an unsuppressed pistol, but the ICA19 is a suppressed pistol and the Classic Baller, if I recall, does not have ICA19 in front of its name, so this does create a bit of confusion, and it could go either way, but I’m inclined to think the unsilenced version.
Ah, I stand corrected then.
Aw gosh I’m flattered you consider me some sort of streamer.
I’ve only really ever done it though at a random time on a random day, for fun, just to share whatever Hitman thing I might be playing to whoever on the forum wants to tune in.
Definitely not doing any part of it for profit or subscriptions that would be utterly wasted since I don’t stream enough.
(Plus I think you can only spend money and Sub to people at Affiliate or Partner twitch level. Those who stream fairly regularly.)
(And I’m pretty sure last time I did anything like a stream was a runthrough of Hardcore Freelancer last year in '23)
But hey, I think Drops are a universal feature for any channel no matter the size or frequency, so I’ll maybe get one going if people want to use me as a Purple Gun Drop mule.
I also nominate @/Casimir0325 (Cassidy. Name outdated). She streams regularly enough I think she qualifies? Or maybe I have all my Sub info wrong, idk.
Support trans creators!
So, in the last year, we’ve had three new celebrity elusive targets, and the return of a long-requested one. What I’d like to know is: should we expect more?
I think so! Year 5 is happening (they said they were looking forward to next year in the livestream) and the ET thing has been quite successful for them so I assume they will continue it. They might confirm it if they do a 2025 teaser that says “new elusive targets” like this year’s one.

Hey again Floople!
Yeah it’s going to be a reskin of The Splitter Boxer Suit, not the mr the disruptor underpants one (named the mma suit)(sadly for u).
“Additionally, players will be able to unlock the Purple Streak Boxer Suit”
You are probably correct! Samir said you will be able to kill The Splitter with it, so yup.
Hope it is that still wish the drop pack had one that played the cool music from the ET
You know what would be a really cool use for the tape? You drop it on the ground, an NPC takes it to the nearest security person, security takes it to the nearest security console to play it and see what’s on it, and it shorts out the security system. No way in hell would they do this, but imagine if they did. For those maps where getting to the security console is almost impossible without a disguise or KOing numerous NPCs (I’m looking at you Bangkok), this would be a neat way around that, with the drawback that it takes up one of your item spaces.
That would be a really cool item! Especially for Bangkok. But as you say pretty unlikely sadly.
Although, @LandirtHome had a similar idea in the other thread, so if two people here have suggested it, it’s plausible the devs at least contemplated the idea…
Personally, I think it might be something like a legal breaching charge (although I don’t know how a tape would stick to a surface like a charge can so maybe not).
Huh, interesting. It’s a possibility then! I’d love it if it did happen. I guess the duck picture was leading me to think explosive…
I think it’s technically possible to do an item like that - when you put an EMP in Cassidy’s mailbox he takes it into his kitchen an places it near the recorder, which you can then disable remotely. It would be a unique functionality gated behind a DLC, but that’s not the first time it’s happened (snail bomb, sedative chewing gum etc) so I’d be fine with it.
Man, I should’ve joked that IOI streams were gonna come back… because I would’ve been right!
Glad to hear there might be more from the behind-the-scenes at IOI. Always good to hear from the people behind the game itself and has more transparency about how this all comes together and why certain decisions might be made about content added to Hitman.
Cool
Still no mention of the seasonal decor in the safehouse
Otherwise, I hope this target is actively eliminating people, or there will be some complication to him!
I’ve heard you have to watch a twitch streamer for an hour to get access to the Roadmap
Jokes aside the new content sounds quality, really looking forward to getting stuck into this and everything else that’s likely to drop over the holidays.
Good work on drafting another big name into WoA!
I see IGN have a preview up of this event and they have obviously played it on ps5 because the saving bug is stuck on the screen for the whole preview. A bug ioi has now ignored for almost 4 years. What an embarrassing way to show off the event
I didn’t notice it before, but when you look closely at the gloves of the boxer suit, it seems that some pieces of glasses are glued to the gloves.
(picture from one @Floople’s post)
It’s probably a nod to one JCVD’s movie, Kickboxer, where JCVD fights with such gloves.
Cannot wait for the homage to Never Retreat, Never Surrender then! That movie is hard to watch even in a Rifftrax version!
Great news!! Let’s face it, Hitman WOA is still making big numbers and profits, so Year 5……we are ready!!!
2025 has to be the year for the Seasonal Safehouse decorations!!
