HITMAN - Anniversary Roadmap

I’d assume it’s at least more than a day, I don’t think I’ve seen many other drops only do 24 hours.

Although, IOI also haven’t said what the timeframe for The Drop will be, I’d hope/expect 10 days like any other ET for the past 5 years, but this is the first celebrity licensed person ET in a while, so it might be more limited than usual? :person_shrugging:

Same. It’s very high up on my list of Hitman things I really want.

The ROCCO challenge is not easy, but it’s also perfectly doable if you give it a few attempts and don’t get frustrated.

I never never play the sniper maps. I’ve only ever played the first one, luckily. I have only gotten to master level 4 on it, and I don’t think I’ve ever gotten SA.

Took me 4 attempts to unlock the challenge, and in that great Hitman-amped-up way, my hands were shaking afterwards.

My suggestions:

This is a FUCK SA challenge, no doubt. On my first attempt, I did not understand that you need to get the targets AND all the guards.

Start shooting the guards roaming the upper floors immediately. After you’ve gotten a couple, get Maison before he has a chance to move. Then clean up the guards around those floors and anyone who might have witnessed. By this point, Lang will be exiting his car. You need to get to him fast, because when an evacuation is triggered, he is close to his point of egress. Clean up as many guards around the grounds as you can while you wait for Lee to arrive via helicopter.

She takes a few seconds to exit the helicopter and start her evacuation, so maybe you want to use wall piercing bullets to shoot her in the chopper. This is a good opportunity to remind you: you have a few wall-piercers and shockwaves at your disposal when guards are hiding behind columns and plants, or running away and you just can’t time that perfect shot.

Normally twitch stream drops lasts for days/weeks, so I would expect it to last for the duration of the ET.

I actually thought the opposite lol.

Because the guards in the mansion and the roof are almost always in areas of vulnerability and are usually by themselves for most of the mission.

The guards in the garden areas and anywhere outside the building need to be killed immediately because after the intro to the mission they move into place that are difficult to isolate because they scatter to public areas.

This is incredibly important information. It’s easy to fall into the trap of using too much slow-mo. You really need to line the shots up with general accuracy in real time, then hit that slow mo for only a second to deliver the killing blows.

Under 1:47 in this is not easy!

Nope!

But do-able. My reflexes aren’t what they used to be. I never play the sniper maps. I have level 4 mastery on this map. I am on console. I managed to do it. It takes some foresight and it will take you a few attempts to succeed. Luck plays a factor too. But YOU. CAN. DO EEEET.

See, this just goes to show my lack of map knowledge here. I took out the guys on the upper floors first because they were easy targets. True, the guys on the grounds start running all over the place. Hey maybe take both my and @Raisu’s advice and see what works best for you.

Done and dusted.


It’s a really good safehouse suit.

Even though the Sniper Challenge suit is a classic outfit from a previous game, it can’t be used for the Hokkaido bathroom easter egg like the Absolution, Blood Money, and 47’s Signature Suits. Hopefully the Codename 47 Suit will be able to trigger it since the easter egg’s a reference to C47 and you can’t get much more classic than that!

It’s a really, really cool suit!

Just a slight bug bear though, sometimes it’s noticeable the tie disappears through 47’s shirt at certain points. Don’t know if anyone else has noticed this yet?

I may be forgetting an Easter Egg here… what Easter egg are you referring to?

In Hokkaido, if you wear the 47’s Signature Suit (with or without gloves), Absolution, or Blood Money suits you can get an Easter Egg in the bathroom.

Strange, I totally abused the slow on pretty much every shot and it seemed the timer was actually slowing too when I did it, anyway that didn’t prevent me to complete the challenge :x

That challenge was pretty difficult and it took me a few tries. I still liked it a lot though, I wish we could get that as some kind of alternate XP multiplier because getting SA on that map (which is pretty much the only way to get good XP for its mastery) is really tedious.

Aside from that I’m not looking forward to having to play Mills Reverie again. Neither am I very fond of that Twitch drop, I hope it’s just a one-time marketing ploy for IOI because I really don’t want to see Hitman go further into the land of limited-time stuff.

Anyone found themselves to randomly be bleeding in this suit yet?

I think you killed somebody in a gory manner and got their blood on the pants.

For example, this happens if you stand in front of the haybaler while it chews through someone’s body:

It wasn’t that, because i had one target and I sniped him from the tower…

Oh I did take out the guard by the cameras in the tower, but that was with a pistol shot to the head

Not to brag, but, cleared the sniping challenge and got the suit on first try, and I wasn’t even really trying, just trying to get a idea of how difficult it might be for me to race the clock. I guess all my grinding from last year improved my skills and knowledge of who goes where on the map. The first of the four new outfits is now mine!

I need to shave off 36 more seconds, but I probably can’t without grinding for a better sniper rifle first. Shouldn’t have focused on grinding Siberia in all those countless hours I played Sniper Assassin. :joy:

But: I’m generally happy that we got a challenge for a sniper mission. I want more of those (challenges for sniper missions and sniper missions).

Edit: LMAO literally made it in the try after that one. Guess eating dinner helped.

They are not.

I could be wrong, but there are some suits -specifically the jackets/tops- that seem to have a red silk lining, and this will clip through. But yeah… Kinda strange to see this happen with his pants/trousers.
