Platform: PC (Epic Store)

Location: Haven Island

Description: Car batteries behave oddly on Haven Island. Throwing one into a puddle containing an unconscious person will visually prime the trap (You can see sparks of electricity course through the puddle) but the kill will never actually trigger.

Strangely, the car battery will also not go off if a person is standing in the puddle, but will go off if a person enters the trap’s range once it has already been primed. In this case, only the person who walked into the electric puddle will be killed, while anyone already standing/unconscious in the puddle will survive.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Enter Freelancer mode and accept a contract in Haven Island.
  2. Take the car battery inside the safehouse’s garage with you on the mission. Car batteries are not native to Haven Island, so this is the only way to bring one there.
  3. Find yourself a puddle and a participant. I recommend the men’s restroom under the restaurant as there are many sinks to choose from and a NPC regularly walks in to serve as a test subject.
  4. Try to eliminate an NPC using the car battery and an overflowed sink puddle.
  5. If the NPC is unconscious/standing in the puddle when the battery and puddle collide, it will not kill them.
  6. If an NPC walks into the puddle after the trap is already primed, they alone will be killed regardless who else is in the puddle.

Frequency: This consistently happens and can be easily reproduced.

The railing inside the keycard door that leads down to the vault/basement doesn’t allow dumping bodies over. I don’t care if it’s high enough to kill them or not. I still don’t want to drag them downstairs when I run out of boxes upstairs!

p.s. I really think 47 should be able to turn 360 when he’s hiding in boxes/closets. If there’s enough room for TWO bodies in each box, there’s enough room for 47 to roll over.

– Also on the Chongqing map, walking through security doors AS the security guard triggers a frisk for no reason. Why would you frisk another guard??? Same thing happens in Whittleton trying to enter Cassidy’s house through the front door as one of his guards. --Freelancer mode

Playing on Steam in Haven Island, apparently this npc’s reflection suffers from hair loss.

Too Many… ‘Attributes’

Suspect in images below has 5 ‘Attributes’

These are:
Brown Hair
Glasses
Hat

Image 1 shows TATTOOS on one arm
Image 2 shows EARRING in one ear

So, depending on what side you investigate the target from, you get different results.

So, is this my target?

I ve sent a report ticket a few days ago about this Miami Audio bug after Freelancer update.Got no answer yet.

I am on Ps4 Pro and get NO sound of cars racing , muted crowds and NO music at disco lounge bar.

Miami is totally unfun and unplayable now…at least for Ps4…Noticed some streamers got no problems with Miami sound on Pc and Ps5.

I really hope this wasn’t a targeted downgrade for Ps4 specifically.

Please release hotfix IOI.Give us back Miami vibes :slight_smile:

Location: Santa Fortuna

Description: In Freelancer mode, if a safe spawns in the bar basement there is a chance this datapad will spawn on top of a sack of potatoes near the staircase. This datapad is impossible to scan from any angle, leaving explosives the only option to break into the safe.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Enter Freelancer mode and accept a contract with a safe in Santa Fortuna.
  2. Enter into the contract and pray the safe spawns in the village bar’s basement
  3. Head on down to the bar’s basement and see if the datapad in question has spawned.
  4. Attempt to scan it.
  5. Keep trying to scan it.
  6. Keep trying. Begin to shuffle all around the sack of potatoes, convinced you’re just trying to scan it at the wrong angle.
  7. Climb the stairs and try to scan it from above. Feel despair begin to set in.
  8. Give up and blow up the safe. You didn’t really need the mersas; it’s just personal now.
  9. Head on over to Hitman Forum to submit a bug report.

Frequency: It’s difficult to personally reproduce given all the random variables needed to make the datapad spawn, but it has been unscannable both times I’ve encountered it.

Platform: PS4

Location: Hokkaido

Description: There’s a reflection on the floor in the corridor leading to the hospital that’s very low res and out of place, especially at certain viewing angles. It’s also present in Hitman (2016) but looks appropriate there, whereas it looks out of place with Hitman 3’s new reflection tech.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Start the game
  2. Load the Hokkaido mission
  3. Move up and down the corridor, rotating the camera

Frequency: Always

Description: Gold baller has a wrong model. Fix it.

Platform: Steam, version 3.140

Location: every mission as well as Freelancer

Description: The ICA Tactical White Shotgun Covert lacks reserve ammunition. Brought into the field, one has to get by with a mere seven shells. By contrast, the black variant comes with a reserve capacity of 7 for a total of 14 shots. I also noticed that the player carries 125 additional ammo for the ICA SMG Raptor Covert, which is odd considering the 40-round magazine.

Frequency: always

Optional Objective: Make Targets Slip negates Silent Assassin objectives

This is downright annoying. If the Kalmer doesn’t negate silent assassin objectives, why does a banana peel? Or smushed grapes?

Heck, I even chloroformed 4 security guards and their bodies were found and it didn’t negate silent assassin.

Freelancer -

  1. Timed objectives should ADD to the timer when I knock someone out or change disguise, not just cap it at 2:30 again. That’s annoying.
  2. What’s the point of the silenced sniper when the whole map knows exactly where you are after 1 shot anyway? I sniped a guy under the sniper nest in Mendoza from all the way up in Yates’ attic and the goons STILL ran the whole way across the map to come look for me.

Ummm… you know trophies only appear AFTER being completed, right? The images you display are clearly incomplete.

Prestige Objective failing despite it actually being done correctly

This happened in Mendoza.
Optional objective, Trap Kill - Oil Canister (or Cannister if you needed an extra ‘n’)
Prestige Objective: Take out the Leader while they are revealing a Tell

Target was a Smoker.

Trailed target to isolated smoking spot. After they departed, poured oil out. Wandered away.

About ten minutes later, target returned and self-immolated. Trap Kill checked, Prestige Objective failed.

See!

ALL achievements related to THIS shelf have been completed. Achievement, that have not yet been fulfilled, belong to ANOTHER shelf.

Clearly its a hint that there are more challenges and trophies to come - because it’s not the only place with an empty space. More than likely, not a bug.
