HITMAN 3 - Bug Report Thread

Platform:
PC, Epic Store

Location:
Hokkaido, Patient Zero mission

Description:
Once every single NPC is infected (139 in total, Owen doesn’t count because he’s a target), the AI becomes very glitchy in terms of reporting things.
E.g. if civilian sees a gun, he stucks for few moments (up to a minute), and when he starts moving to find a guard the game might crash. Happened 4 of 4 times.
Helps only if I manage to pick up the gun before NPC sees it.
In other case if I picked up the gun after NPC saw it, he can stuck for another minute or two and only then get back to his routine. If the game managed to handle this hell of an action and didn’t crash.
UPD: game crashes if to run across the map and kill everybody infected

Steps to reproduce:
Infect everyone on the location and make NPC to see the lying gun.
UPD: just run and kill infected

Frequency:
Never happened in HITMAN 2.
In HITMAN 3 seems it randomized. At a certain moment game can crash every time, but if to manage to pick up the gun the NPC is about to see, game can crash still, but at a lower chance. Depends on AI calculations, seems.
UPD: game always crashes even while eliminating infected NPCs

Exception code 0xc0000005, always the same

Platform: PC / Digital
Location: Any location’s loading screen
Description:

When loading in a map, the game has a pretty large chance of crashing. It usually doesn’t happen on the first map I load, and almost always happens on the second map I load.

Try to update or reinstall GPU driver.
Could be also a matter of RAM. It might be corrupted or just not enough.
Check if your Windows has activated and enough sized swap file

Platform - PS4
Frequency- every time I’ve played it.
Location - Bangkok.

There be some funky, psychedelic textures going on.

I’m on PS4, I get disconnected from the server every time I eliminate a target on any map. When I eliminate a non-target nothing happens. I don’t know if this helps but my PSN is TheRam3596.

The ICA19 is the only pistol that doesn’t display in the menu to take in via briefcase. Yes the player could work around this by having the ICA19 and take the other gun they want in via briefcase, but its still a bug to squash.

Platform : PS4Pro (Digital Deluxe)
Location : All 3 Sniper Assassin Maps (Himmelstein,HantuPort,Siberia)

I cannot get any rating when finishing the Sniper maps , but somehow I got one trophy for Silent Assassin on Siberia, and the mastery unlocking level shows that it keeps registering the xp as I have reached level 5.
On leaderboards I can see 3 of my friends’ score and it says that I have to complete the levels …

Description: estate wines challenge cannot be completed once you collect all 3 wines

Steps to reproduce

  3. Check and see if the challenge pops up

Frequency: always

Bug 1:

Platform: PC

Location: Mendoza

Description : Had an issue where only Diana was on “The Tour” and Tamara stayed at the start (I think). She was in one spot. When Diana was meeting Yates in the barrel room I activated the posion gas, killing everyone in the room. Diana teleported all the way to where Tamara was standing.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Start the level as a grape picker and poison in loadout
  2. Acquire grape knife and pick 3 grapes
  3. Go over to wine expert and listen to his phone call
  4. Give grapes to wine expert
  5. Go to room with ventilation and knock out both people there
  6. Put poison into vent and activate the vent
  7. Go up to the control room and wait for Diana to meet with Yates
  8. Once they meet in the barrel room activate the vent to poison them

Frequency : Uncertain. Tried this again and did 1-7 and watched them start “The Tour” with instinct from the control panel that overlooks the barrel room. Tamara started the tour, they all stopped at the first part of the tour where Tamara leans on something. They then all proceeded to the second part. After that, while Diana and the wine expert made their way to the barrel room, Tamara went back to the first part of the “Tour”. Tamara then proceeded to go downstairs somewhere? Tried the poisoning again and Diana died.

Bug 2:

Platform: PC

Location: Mendoza

Description : During the course of “The Tour”, If you go to the wine fridge, acquire the guy’s disguise, the wine, and talk to the guy asked by Yates to get the wine BEFORE he gets to the glass, he will address you as “Flowers” but then he proceeds to tap on the glass. You can no longer interact with him after that.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Start Game
  2. Start Mendoza
  3. Activate "The Tour’ by getting the wine expert to start the tour by giving him 3 grapes as a field worker
  4. Go to wine fridge and acquire the disguise and wine.
  5. After the guy is asked by Yates to get the wine, talk to him before he gets to the window.

Frequency : Uncertain

Description: whenever I go through the all seeing eye story mission, Royce and Hush’s dialogue (on phone and on lotus pass) does not play when at a distance although Olivia says we can listen in now.

Steps to reproduce

Simply progress through the all seeing eye story mission until any of the phone calls and there is a chance you wont hear them when at a distance although you should be able to.

Frequency: I did this mission story 7 times and it occurred every time without fail

Have you opened the inner courtyard door? These two challenges seem to get mixed up sometimes

Following on from this, I’ve noted some music bugs in general; I don’t know how to replicate them, or why it happens (to be honest, I haven’t played enough) but music often just stops abruptly, really pulling you out of the game.

Platform: PS5

Location: Hitman 1 and 2 maps.

Description: Music stops abruptly.

Steps to reproduce: Uncertain.
