You just made me realised that the way the tease is cropped, it could be “golden bank robber”, and not “golden saw-off bartoli 12G”. (but to be honest, the shotgun is more probable)
Nonetheless, it would be interesting to have a outfit unlock with a unique mechanic, an “always hostile” starting outfit. (even though, from the way the ninja suit works, making it consistent and workable on all maps looks to be a nightmare to set).
(I also think that it would be funny to have for 100 completion, or a similar challenge, an “always authorized” outfit, like just 47 in his signature suit but a high vis vest hastily put over it.)
As for the “new target”, yeah ET is more probable, but I will still hope for a bonus mission. Something permanent, you know.
I was expecting radio silence until sudden roadmap reveal or another “SoonTM” this Thursday, so it’s certainly a neat surprise.
From this “new target” thing I’m really hoping the Drop + Twitch was seen as a success on IOI’s side in terms of generating sales and thus they’re having another go at it. If that does actually happen, my main remaining wish is that those new ETs (including Drop) will get the ETA treatment later down the line.
Not very excited about the unlock though. Neither golden sawed-off nor bank robber outfit are things I care about (as those are my main guesses), but maybe the unlock method will be fun to do.
I could see an easy mode suit starting some debates the same way molotov or ephone did, but I’m all for more challenge run suits. Though ideally they’d something more hand-crafted like bank robber where only specific NPCs (such as guards) become hostile and not everyone, so public areas just become challenging and not impossible (plus “everyone is hostile” runs can already be emulated by carrying a katana around).
Still I gotta throw in the idea of H2:SA retro suit that makes everyone an enforcer.
A new target probably just means an Elusive Target. If it was a new map there would be more of a fanfare.
That said, I still can’t work out which map is shown in this image- Is it the safehouse basement or one of the many other underground rooms found throughout the trilogy?
THAT is the ICA Facility in Chongqing, China. Capable of being dismantled and moved in 48 hours. Dismantling of the whole ICA also available at the same location for the willing, under condition of server hacking and elimination of two ICA head. Quite the resume.
(extract is from the Hitman 3 launch trailer)
(also obligatory : the ICA facility is not a basement nor underground, but actually multiple floors up a building, Chongqing is weird like that)
I hope in a new mission on an existing map. Or, at least an ET. About decorations in the safehouse, I don’t care. When I play Freelancer, I’m always downstairs to chose and play missions. I never go upstairs in the home. I don’t see any reason
If I had one fantasy request, it would be a mission (map) with all of the ETs ever featured there, just roaming around, and you have to get like 8 of them to complete it. (Say a place like Sapienza)
Since I play on console, I’ll never get to play with the mods.
Psh, at this point, you could take all the ETs made and put them in a low population map, like Whittleton Creek or Dartmoor, and just kill them all. Go nuts, the entire map is full of nothing but targets, kill ‘em all!
Probably SASO’ing Bangkok as Jordan Cross is easily the most annoying target in the game for a SASO (and he’s even worse in H1 since we have less tools to do it).
Wtf game were you guys playing all this time? Challenging? Yeah. Difficult? Not at all. And that’s with getting Morgan down into the basement and getting Cross to confess in the same playthrough. And that’s even before H2 gave us the tools to make accidents happen in accordance with the HPP. Did people seriously have trouble SA/SO Jordan Cross? Even on H1?!
Yep. You are just the King, Heisy, anyone who struggled with a bit of a video game that you personally didn’t isn’t fit to breathe the same air as your glorious majesty.
upstairs and the outside areas of the Safehouse is like literally the best part!
