Freelancer - General Discussion

Am I going insane, or did they add a new guard here? This mission was an unalerted showdown. He caught me by surprise since I’ve been nearly always using this path when getting to the vault.


He has a 3 point patrol route, with 1 point in the room with a photocopier and 2 in this connector where he’s standing in the screenshot.

That’s a Lookout. He’s not always there, and for some reason he’s not an enforcer to the high security guard disguise.

Makes sense. I was used to lookouts always being civilians even in places where it doesn’t make sense.

I moved house at the end of January and only got my internet back on Tuesday, so its nice to finally be able to play Freelancer. I did get to play the beta way back when, so its nice to play this and it runs pretty well, even if the load times for levels are pretty long. I do suck at this though, I really do struggle to improvise which is what Freelancer is all about and my memory on half the maps is pretty rubbish. I’ve definetly gotten stale at Hitman as a whole.

Still, this is fun, and I definetly want to try and finish a campaign successfully. I still need to try out Ambrose Island too, that should be fun.

At some point I had an alerted showdown in Mumbai (in normal, not HC) where suspects weren’t suit enforcers. Can’t remember which suit I was wearing (I think it was some variant of 47’s signature suit?) but it definitely wasn’t the one you were using, so it’s pretty likely that this bug has nothing to do with either a specific map or a specific suit.

It’s actually not that uncommon (although I’ve never seen it happen with grenades). One easy way to replicate this is to go to Miami and get the 2 sedative synringes there. Once you return to the safehouse, you still have the 2 syringes in your inventory, but if you drop both you can only take one back. If you manually stash one you can bring the second one on your next mission. You can also get multiple Tantos from Hokkaido and it works the same way.

Yeah or Chloroform from Chongqing or Sgail! (One of my favorite items in the game.)

It’s still not back as of now either… they’re taking it seriously. Any news on when it’ll be back up live?

It’ll be back up whenever:

a) Reddit’s leadership actually walks back its changes
b) The Hitman mods give up and reopen the sub like many other subs have
c) Reddit gets rid of the current mods and replaces them with mods of their choosing

Take your pick on which option’s the most likely. Fortunately for Hitman fans, there’s this forum for continued discussion about Hitman stuff. And we don’t even have frequent posts about the scales showing 47 weighs 47!

Since it is not really the topic of this thread, I wrote a summary of the current situation here:

Would appreciate if further comments about it were done there. :slight_smile:

How I was playing Freelancer today and notice this once again staring at me!

IOI………we need those Trinity weapons and other Campaign weapons (which currently aren’t in Freelancer) to be added here in this open free space!!! :wink::wink::wink:

And while you’re at it, we need those weapons available in Freelancer but not in the main campaign to be made available there, too.

Considering how much of a pita it is to re-collect all the overpriced ornate / ancestral stuff after prestige, please don’t do this too soon IOI :x

We can worry about that later! :+1:t2::wink:

They’ll show up. I’m sure of it. One of the more popular mods that just came out on Nexus adds deluxe and 7DS weapons to your wall, which you have to buy from Lucas Grey in the safe house. Whenever I play on XB, I miss my Black Trinity and Sieger 300 Arctic Sniper Rifle.

Wow, Zelda recently had a duplication bug to be patched out, now Hitman does too. Huh.

Bug, or Tedious Grind Avoidance Feature…

I think I’m about level 12 now. Slowly building up my gun collection, slowly unlocking the safehouse, just unlocked the target range which is pretty nice. Last campaign I managed to reach the 4th and final Syndicate, but then failed on the second level when I made a silly mistake in Marrakesh and got gunned down. I’ll be honest, I thought that was a little infuriating, but I suppose that’s what happens in a roguelike mode like this.

I doubt I’ll stick with this to level 100, or hell, even level 50 if we’re being real, but this is fun. I do like trying to go with the flow of the mission objectives, and actually pulling off all 4 objectives in a mission is a lot of fun.

I still need to do Ambrose Island. I’ve been deliberately avoiding syndicates with that locations because I want to play the main mission of Ambrose Island first before anything else.

Anybody knows how many levels of Prestige do we have?
I mean not the challenge, but the laptop ones.
I just collected all weapons after reaching 10th level and the laptop offers me level 11.
20? 30? 40?..

I just wonder how many people will continue this pointless grinding again and again after completing the challenge (if they won’t add more levels to this challenge in the future)

2020202022020202020.
