Things About Hitman You Just Found Out

Possibly, but it’s been this way since launch. Either we pray IO fixes it, or it’s the new normal we have to face.

The briefing confirms that aswell, where it’s mentioned that he was sent by his brothers. While it’s possible he had even more brothers than just the two we’ve met, odds are that he was just talking about Franz and Fritz as there hasn’t been any mention throughout the series of another Fuchs.

I just noticed that the opportunities & intel menu text in Chongqing are all written in 47’s voice. Sparse, to the point, and with occasional murder puns.

He’s acting as his own handler.

I reported it when the game first came out and Ill stick to that decision, it was way better to just KO them after one hit. Hitting them again in the head while they are on the ground/shoot them again makes it just wierd.

Mendoza is cool for this because he actually narrates it too.

so very funny (20 characters)

I’m sure i’ve read this before, but I noticed that Vidal’s glass stays empty during the meeting in Mendoza. Cortazar knew that she wasn’t going to be able to drink it so he never poured any for her. I wonder why they bothered to pour Diana’s glass…

I didn’t know fetch was in 2. Also will they fix the Kalmer bug I wonder.

Fetch trick MKII if you want.
It’s not that same from HITMAN 2016, but still kind of works.
If you check out my video you’ll see how it works from HITMAN 2

I’ve noticed this for quite a long time now but I still might as well mention it. If you do something crazy (I’m not sure exactly what) like killing all the people surrounding one specific NPC, once that NPC calms down, sometimes they will call a family member or something like that.

I’ve noticed this at random like when I butchered all the guards surrounding the chef in Embrace of the Serpent, and when I killed the two other people in the Chongqing Train Station, leaving only the lady on the bench alive.

I just found out that David Bateson had an interview with this company called SPOnG back in 2012.

The most interesting parts are:

SPOnG: The movie and the game industries cross paths an awful lot these days - obviously the Hitman movie was one such result of that back in 2007. That film was ultimately panned - do you think that there’s a risk of a movie damaging the reputation of the source material?

David Bateson: Ooh, that’s a good question because… yeah. That’s the short answer. The whole Hitman franchise really demands a lot of you, the player. Especially when (the first game was released and) it went the other way to a lot of (standard) shoot 'em ups. A game where you have to shoot as few people as possible. What? I have to use my brain? So that created a new demand or set of parameters for the audience.

And then, in a way, you go and ruin it by making something extremely public, like a film. So on the one hand you think that this gives publicity for the game, but… it’s like a book being turned into a film. It’s never going to satisfy the readers. Whether the film is good or bad. I think I’ll reserve judgement on the (quality of the Hitman) film itself.

SPOnG: You must have had a unique perspective on various matters regarding Hitman Absolution, having recently been re-cast and having not played the game. Such as the Nuns controversy, and the accompanying trailer. Do you have any thoughts on that?

David Bateson: I read all about that because I’m an avid follower of Hitman Forum and other such fansites, as well as the media. And I thought, “well those nuns can come knocking on my door anytime!”. (Laughs) But seriously, no, I don’t have any opinion as to what’s appropriate there. I leave those kind of tasteful decisions to IO and Square Enix.

My eyes aren’t so wonderful anymore. Are they exactly the same? Or do you mean they are both the fleur-de-lis :fleur_de_lis:??

The fleur-de-lis a traditional heraldic symbol in France so of course it is there. Victoria having one might have been a cheap way of stating that she is 47.
