HITMAN 3 - Bug Report Thread

Platform: PC

Location: Berlin

Description : Can’t open the locked door at the radio tower despite having a crowbar in your inventory. Default crowbar and ICA crowbar both don’t work on this door. You can see the greyed out prompt. Although, all the lockpicks do work on this door.

Frequency : Everytime

Very well could be that this is not a bug, but a feature

Curious, why do you think so? You can both shoot it open and open it with a lockpick. So why not crowbar?

I arised this question when I visited Berlin very first time, but unfortunately I don’t remember how it ended.
My theory that this fence may be under voltage and if you interact with it with a big piece of iron you can fry yourself up like a chicken. Suicide is not an option for 47, right? So he can’t break it open with a crowbar.
But this is exclusively my theory and I can be drastically wrong about it and it could be a simple bug with no backstory indeed

The location still has issues with the game completely freezing, but the game never actually crashes. This has happened to me many times since launch, nothing in particular seems to trigger it either. I’ve had it happen when climbing a pipe, having only moved 47 around without interacting with anything at all and today it happened while I was dragging a body. It doesn’t happen everytime I play the location either. Other people have reported the issue too, so its not just me and my console/install either.

The same issue occurs in Queen’s Kitchen in Bangkok, where Morgan stays. I did during Source, and wanted to drop taser in it to electrocute Yulduz, when she goes into lockdown.

Platform: PC, digital (Epic Games Store specific).

Location: Hantu Port, Singapore.

Description: It is a known issue, yet it has been a long time since it was reported.
The problem is those who had already completed all Challenges in Sniper Assassin mission “The Pen and the Sword” back in HITMAN 2 don’t have the associated EGS achievement unlocked for HITMAN 3.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Get HITMAN 2 on a platform such as Steam (with the Gold Edition)
  2. Complete all Challenges in Hantu Port
  3. Get HITMAN 3 on the Epic Games Store
  4. Import all your content and progression using the Carryover website
  5. Notice the associated “True Poetry” EGS achievement is still locked

Frequency: Always.
This happens to everyone who had already completed all challenges in HITMAN 2 and who imported their progression.

It’s so sad that things have turned out this way. I haven’t even been able to bring myself to play Hitman 3 since April. The ending of the game was…ruined?..because I couldn’t enjoy the last 2 missions, and I had a bunch of health/personal problems come up, so found the prospect of troubleshooting, and recording videos for IO support quite unappealing. It also dawns on me that I have missed out on several elusive targets.

A big reason why I decided to start the game in March was to not miss out on them, and instead roll the dice with a game I knew was causing problems. Going to try to get on today, using the delete-reinstall/cache clear method that was suggested as a first step by IO support, and also hope the new patch helps. I know this maybe isn’t the place for this, but whatever.

Thanks IOI, 3 bugs I posted here are in the patch notes! Thanks for fixing them!

The May update was meant to fix the FC challenges for people that completed them early so they got the unlocks. The Sieger Case appeared in my inventory in May, the Remote Semtex Block did not. Now the Ducky Gun has been added to the challenge, I’ve not got that in my inventory either. So I’m now back to not having two items that I should have.

Still not fixed on PC. I started and finished the mission after the June patch too to see if it pops up, but it didn’t.

You can see all the challenges are completed.

But achievement is still locked.

Can’t access 6 original locations on Hitman 2 along with Himmelstein, post patch. Can play New York, Haven Island, and the other 2 sniper missions. I own all of the locations, having purchased Hitman 1, 2, & 3 including season passes, access passes, 7 deadly sins, etc. in the past. This is about as calm as I can be, but this whole business disgusts me…

It seems the latest patch messed up something with the brightness / contrast of the game menus. All the mission tabs, including escalations, objectives, missions planning, etc, are flickering in some funky way.

Try reinstalling the H2 Access Pass. I was having issues with playing WC and a reinstall of the pack seems to had fixed it.

Oh my god. First time playing in about 6 weeks, since I was waiting for things to hopefully get fixed. Now I’m playing with the 1.06 update and my PS4 Pro fan is incredibly loud. Like I’ve never heard it this loud before, and I’m not sure I should even keep it running. Brutal. Just brutal. I’m pretty much at my limit with this game.

Thanks, I appreciate it. It didn’t work for me, however. I’m done with this game. The digital version is garbage in my opinion. This game freezes/crashes on me 2-3 times a day minimum. I’ve never had so many problems with a video game. Hitman 2 on disc played so well, what a shame. Online gaming sucks and I’ve got better things to do with my time. IOI can drop dead for all I care. Amateur programmers!

Same here just updated the game on Xbox Series X and now it is saying I don’t have access to any of the original Hitman 2 content, Hitman 2 DLC seems to be unaffected.

I tried a hard reset and that didn’t seem to fix it and the Hitman 2 access pass is fully installed on my console.
