Never noticed that, or seen it posted in the bug thread.

I want them to fix this and then reintroduce it as a safehouse unlock ala the briefcase because it looks way too funny

Isnā€™t that just some fancy sink for washing dishes? Thatā€™s what I always assumed that was.

How would that work, realistically? You dump all the dishes in there, drain the thing, open the doors to take them out? Thereā€™s no tap to rinse them off, once theyā€™re in there you canā€™t get them out without diving in or draining the whole thing. It spans the whole wall. Thatā€™s an immense waste of water and a lot of manual labour.

Dip them, or set them in it to let them soak, pull them out, wipe them off with a towel, put them away. The cupboards underneath are merely decorative.

This was the first thought that came into my head upon seeing this and itā€™s never occurred to me it would be anything else. Given how decadent the hotel is, itā€™s supposed to be an impressive waste of water, similar to those decadent urinals in the Merovingianā€™s palace in The Matrix Reloaded.

The pool goes all the way to the floor, you canā€™t set them in to let them soak, that thing is deeper than your arms are long. There are two normal sinks in the same kitchen. You canā€™t use soap or even just rinse them in there. Thatā€™d be so unhygienic to ā€œcleanā€ dishes in this thing. Iā€™m pretty sure the fancy hotel can afford an industry-grade dishwasher like any other hotel or restaurant.

Edit: Iā€™m so sorry for derailing this topic. :joy:

I think its depth is just a flaw of the game, they couldnā€™t make it look shallow enough. Itā€™s not actually as deep as it looks. Makes more sense as a flaw than they just put a pool there and havenā€™t noticed all this time.

IĀ“m pretty sure they can also afford to install some kind of lift somewhere. To this day, I canĀ“t imagine how exactly does room service function in that hotel in terms of moving sheets and other stuff to and from the basement laundry room, kitchen, etc. The Himmapan has so many design flaws that a completely ineffective and senseless swimming-pool cupboard/sink felt perfectly normal to a lot of us :rofl:

I feel the same way about the bunker in the safehouse. Thereā€™s no lift or elevator, just two ladders and a staircase. How the hell is 47 getting the letter decoration items and machinery down there? And quite a few other things across the game. Certain things that donā€™t make sense placed where they are. Surely a long and deep sink that looks at a glance like a pool had a place.

Sorry about this, was traveling and slightly delayed on my way home.
Actually got tagged on X where I pushed it forward to the team.

Saw that things was lifted and fixed before I got home.

Happy it got solved.

I canā€™t play the secrets of the global elite cutscene :scream: when I click on it, itā€™s not playing!

I mean, it is already bad for new players paying much money for the game and not being able to understand the story. Makes the game look sloppy.

But for me?! I canā€™t see Grey talking to Novikov!

I made a mod to fix it:

Alongside an explanation to IOI on how to fix it:

I do wonder how it was broken, if anyone from IOI is wondering how I fixed it: somehow the Paris video database entity (entity id: ae3ea52523f82c5e) was removed from the m_aVideDatabases array in the video database list entity (entity id: abe679c7c19e3fd9) in the latest update, both of these are found in assembly:/templates/ui/menuresources.template?/videodatabaselist.entitytemplate. This mod just re-adds that.

In addition to the above changes, another Iā€™ve noticed: when playing Nightcall, if you wait for Alma Reynard to wake up and make the phone call to her sister, she no longer does it. Instead, something has gone wrong, and she and Orson will both wake up, he will reiterate his instructions to the guard to look out for max, even though thereā€™s no guard in the room, and then stand in the doorway to the bathroom and continue to stand there and stare into it indefinitely.

Meanwhile, Alma will head toward the balcony door like she normally would, except she then turns around and proceeds to the closet mirror and begins to examine herself and sometimes even performs the actions to change into her pajamas that sheā€™s already wearing, exactly as she does when she and Orson first enter the closet together and undress. Sheā€™ll then walk back into the bed room toward the balcony door again, and then turn around and repeat the same process, again indefinitely. Donā€™t know when this change happened, but I certainly donā€™t remember it prior to the most recent update.

One other thing that I donā€™t think is necessarily related to this update, but perhaps worth noting: Rico Delgadoā€™s bio seems to be shorter than I remember. Iā€™ve always felt that the bios of some characters have been rewritten over the years, and unless Iā€™m pulling the Mandela Effect on myself, I could swear that his bio used to be longer, and actually mentioned that he was still trying to find out who killed his uncle and cousins, and that the Shadow Client had promised to reveal that information to him in exchange for his alliance. Am I crazy, or remembering wrong, or did that not used to be part of his bio?

I have a disk copy of H2 i could try checking for this detail (not rn but in a week or two, itā€™s a long tedious process to install)

When is the update for the Autumn Road map?

Well, we know the Drop will be returning on 12th September, so Iā€™m assuming it will all launch together.
