Hokkaido is the best map

Hokkaido>sapienza>Miami>...>a turd>Paris

Hokkaido is boring, at least the main story mission is.

Alright OP, you can begin anytime now.

which assassination method in the whole series was the ultimate Hitman kino?

You DID get it, right Yea Forums?

No. I forgot to do some previous elusive targets.

Fuck off, Paris is great, Colorado is okay.
The only shit map in both games is Marrakesh.

both maps looks very fleshed out to be sandbox, 2bh
also the price of the season pass comes to mind (it is expensive as fuck) so I hope they deliver decent content

Attached: file.png (218x80, 16K)

I like Colorado, desu
ofc, i find it a little bit extreme, because it is plagued with hostile NPCs, but I find the mask thing at the end pretty cool

Sapienza is the best map by far. The variety is superb, and the stories are good, too🍪

I'm on holiday, first thing I'm gonna do when I get back is boot up man hitter and silence that hacker so I get this.

is hitman 2 just more of the first one? i'm finishing the challenges and stuff on 1, and wondering if i should buy 2 right now or wait for a sale or something

I play "the finish line" and pretend im a mass shooter. Also the one with the suburban american neighborhood. I just walk into the party with my shotgun and dressed like a police officer.

Attached: 1542026474219.jpg (360x360, 55K)

i would've prefered if the map was a farmers market on a time limit where the milita would rush in and try to attack the compound when you don't kill one of the targets quickly enough
it is more of H1, but if you want to pay the whole price for it is up to you

one thing i miss from blood money is the newspaper telling details about your mission and the various names you could get depending on how maniac you were throughout the level

...

>Killing everyone on Another Life with a shotgun
>Not stealthily shanking everyone with a hobby knife like some budget serial killer

My favorite approach with this game is to fuck up and kill disguise escape as needed
wreckless without going full blown Columbine, basically
they should value that in the ranking
I understand that you get a 5 star ranking if you finish the level in the cleanest way possible, but they should also value how you can adapt in difficult situations, and improv

i see. well, i guess i'll wait for a sale, i'm yet to get bored from H1
oh yeah, i play hitman since codename 47, and i'm really liking this new approach after absolution. i turn off all hints and can sink hours on a single level just planning stuff

>i turn off all hints and can sink hours on a single level just planning stuff
exactly
the amount of detail and care they have put in the levels clearly shows in 2
vast maps, full of connections
my only gripe is it seems kind of broken, ie: one target disappeared from the level, and was showing at the top of the map
i have found people clipping through walls, and the AI is obviously cheating sometimes, ie: kill someone, and went climb a pipe... the people searching for me piled on behind the wall I was, basically seeing me through the room
still worth every penny, but clearly not for everyone

the only thing i'm not very fond of it is the whole xp system that pretty much forces you to SA every mission if you want mastery to go up faster in order to give you new starting points or different gear to experiment with. but aside that, even on H1 i can see that every level have a very high amount of detail and care. when you first begin your mission, you can feel really lost, but as soon as you start paying attention to the environment, you understand that everything is there for a purpose. and yeah, there are some bugs, but i've yet to find something gamebreaking

Hitman is cool because it's one of the only franchises nowadays where you can get something like a traditional point-and-click experience and feel like you're a genius.

My other favorite adventure games from the 21st century are Ghost Trick, Zack and Wiki, and Thimbleweed Park.

I'm still mad they changed the Hokkaido level so you no longer get the surgeon disguise from the bandaged dude opportunity, and just a useless regular doctor disguise instead. Worst thing about is that it makes getting a surgeon disguise legit more or less impossible unless you wanna seriously cheese it by abusing the line of sight investigation.

muscular memory and visual memory are different things. it is completely possible to lose one and still have the other, most common being not rememering past events or people, but yet able to perform tasks that rely mostly on synapses that are already developed in your brain, such as muscle memory.
also, who plays hitman for the story anyway? i just want to murder shit in the most ridiculous way possible

This one, the sequels also are ALMOST equally good.
I need another game like Dishonored, i've already played all the games from Arkane...Any recommandation?

You're right, the story doesn't really matter. I just have autism regarding soft retcons.

Deus Ex I guess, if you haven't already.

As in gameplay or setting? I'd say you should try Thief

i wasn't trying to argue against your point, you are right. hitman was never exactly heavily based on lore, and they retcon a lot of stuff indeed

My Dishonored buddy, Dishonored is one of those rare games I find myself returning to.
The DLC was also really solid along with interesting levels.

In gameplay, but the game also need a good setting.
Already played all the thief games, they are pretty good and aged well.
The Daud DLC could have been a standalone game of it's own honestly, Daud was a good character. the standalone with Billie after Dishonored 2 also was pretty good, even if Billie was still inferior to Daud (but still, not that bad of a character, especially for one very, huh..."diverse". ), with her power less useful in combat.

Hantu Port is decent and all, but I'm looking forward to the leaked Bank level that's coming.

Hitman's writing really shines in the smaller stories within the levels about NPCs. Silvio's story would make a great short film.

To use it, you need to sabotage the mat with a screwdriver, and let it electrocute the guy using it. Then you have to fix it with the screwdriver again.

Not him

>Hitman's writing really shines in the smaller stories within the levels about NPCs
This. Going in both H1 and H2 with no assistance/guidance and slowly discovering the story behind each target is satisfying as fuck. The bigger picture is usually a big bad villain who is trying to push his agenda by using the Agency as a means to do so.

It was leaked on the Hitman reddit and Hitman forum. Apparently, the next DLC level is going to be a bank in Shanghai.

I really like the intricacies and links from older targets into the newer ones. Still waiting on a mission with the not-Kim Jongs that the Knoxes sold weapons to

Also, youtube.com/watch?v=MeqskaJ9Ek4

The targets in Hantu work for the Not Jong-Uns.

It seems like they're calling North Korea by a fictional name.

I'm guessing that's because they don't have access to SE's render farm anymore. On the upside it feels like the budget they would have spent on them went into making the briefing animations kino as fuck instead.

Yesterday I platinum'd this and I must admit that I had a lot more fun playing it throughout than I thought I was gonna have, definitely more than I remember when I first bought it for ps3.
The game has a lot of flaws of course, but it's so fucking satisfying, especially playing with high difficulty and trying to beat the level with suit only.
I think there are a few things that nu-Hitman should've borrowed from it:

>shooting mechanics and ragdoll physics
hitting headshots and seeing a perfect blood stain behind them was satisfying af (imagine killing Jordan Cross in that challenge but instead of him doing that silly jump you see him drop on the floor and a realistic blood spurt on the wall)
>sniping and bullet drop
again, imagine sniping the targets with nu-Hitman's massive maps but not launching them 10 feet in the air like an inflatable doll
>dual pistols and removing/adding silencers
useless but still pretty cool

Killing the Opera singer by switching the guns and then dropping the lights on top of the Senator as he mourns his death.

So I bought the hitman pack when it was on sale a couple of days ago (codename 47, 2, blood money, contracts, absolution), in what order should I play them?

By release.

Release order is fine, but if you think Codename 47 controls are too janky you can start with 2.Contracts is like a remaster of Codename 47 but the story progression is different.

Yeah, approach him in his tower(but clear it out beforehand) and then wait for him at the boat

I don’t know why they don’t just do in-engine cutscenes. The cutscene for Hantu Port looked fine.

Damn, I'm going to try it and make a video of it.

Maybe they didn't want to go and make the locations and supporting characters in-engine and waste even more resources into it

The core game aspects of stealth itself was OK , the problem was the story focus and some small design choices that eventually became massive issues. The way disguises work basically make using them a problem unless it’s that one key disguse nobody can detect

Did you like Eyes Wide Shut or similar “the world elites in one place” feel of some spy movies? It’s not the best mission as a whole but I still throughly enjoyed the concept. It’s like Paris but for illuminati or something.

new publisher WB rushed them for a christmas release

Seanposting was absolutely hilarious and a pity that the games are still niche as fuck despute being relatively well known for standards of stealth and the last game being extremely satisfying as a long fan.

Only the overarching story is shit.
The self-contained stories in the mission is where it's at.
They should just dump the overarching meme, but I think publisher CEO's force it down their throats. They just switched out all the story cutscenes with still images. Shows how much they care about it.

If anything I am glad they didnt bother with those. Yeah S1 looked great but they didnt need that much flavor and I’d rather have the budget go to the actual game.

there was also a massive lack of funding during production while IOI were between publishers
we're pretty lucky season 2 came out as good as it did

>Killing the Opera singer by switching the guns and then dropping the lights on top of the Senator as he mourns his death.
This 100% and then casually leaving the opera through the front entrance as if nothing happened.

>They should just dump the overarching meme, but I think publisher CEO's force it down their throats. They just switched out all the story cutscenes with still images. Shows how much they care about it.
That's because they don't have square enix resources anymore

Its way too tempting to randomly shank or punch out civilians in the open

What's the best way to play these games? Turn off scenarios and instinct vision?

The larger conspiracy plot line is a good way to foreshadow future missions and establish links between the settings and characters.

The general world building is surprisingly excellent. They even went out of their way to come up with their ownin universe soft drink and clothing brands similar to how Rockstar does it with the GTA games.

I absolutely hate that 2 pin/sticker they slap on almost everything.

theres a brazilion ways to play
turning everything off and learning to play with no assists is pretty rewarding but some things like the minimap are worth having as it tells you when you're trespassing which helps to avoid bothersome encounters
what if i told you ..its a crosshair with clockhands on it?

I just wish the plot of the series wasn't so retarded that it needed TWO reboots in recent years

yeah, especially when you're carrying that body to the dumpster and suddenly

i hate civilians so fucking much

Turn off everything except for detection circles for me

I played most of 1 and 2 if I didn't finish them back in the day (honestly don't remember). I played a bunch of Blood Money.

This game just didn't click with me at all. Did the tutorial and Paris a couple of times and just didn't get it. It didn't click. Don't see the point in playing the rest of it.

i turned the detection circle off immediately as its rather ugly
just keeping in mind that if someone walks ontop of you they might notice you works fine for me

WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING, RELEASE THAT MAN

HELP, HELP

its a sandbox for violent fantasies with much of the puzzle solving elements being trying to figure out the AI and how to manipulate them
whether or not thats what you want in a game i cant say but i love it to bits

Instinct vision is supposed to be how 47 views the world, with ultra sharp vision/sound awareness. What happens instead is that it's more of a x-ray superpower than anything. Leave it on if you want, but I found myself rarely using it and relying more on the minimap. Mission guidance you should set to minimal or off, otherwise you're just playing "go from point A to point B" and it kills the experience completely.

It's not a reboot though. It's a sequel to Blood Money.

The only think changed is that Absolution got heavily retconned.

What is minimal mission guidance like?

Classic All-Black suit is my favorite for being made of leather.

the story mission reveals will be done by walking around the area and listening to conversations. diana will give you some basic idea of what you're supposed to do, but there are no markers of where you should go, you'll need to explore and search

the poisons also have names based on what they do

Yes. The prologue mission is a prequel, but the rest of the game takes place after BM. As for Absolution, only the assassinations are canon.

would you employ a guard that has motion sickness?

Pretty much. There are only two references to Absolution in the game:
The intro cutscene showing an assassination from Absolution, and Dexter's brother being a recurring NPC in a few missions.

Dude just hit them with a wrench and stuff their bodies in the little encave that the shelves form. You don't even need to distract them since they turn facing away from each other in their routine.
Lure the bodyguard out of the hax room with a coin and put him in the same place.
No-one comes there unless you trigger some alarm shit.

Then it's just a matter of knocking out whitecap and shooting the target.

Anyone else was putting a mine into that lady's suitcase and later blew the whole entrance to pieces at the White House level?

I watched MrFreeze's video for the current ET and a dude breaking a lamp with his head made him crack up

Not yet. I keep forgetting to check whenever a new ET comes out.

i actually did not, looks like ill do another play through

I missed the ET in Sigil, but SA'd every ET so far.

The unlocks are toys you use for messing around.
Even so, everything is infinitely shittier than silverballer. Their accuracy and ammo supply just can't match near infinite ammo of a pistol with laser accuracy that kills anything in two hits or one hit for headshots.

>no you're not.
shut the fuck up shitter

Steam and Nvidia saves screenshots with the "silent assassin" subtitle for HITMAN™2 for some reason.

The Striker is God-tier, as is the semi-auto assault rifle you unlock in Colorado.

47 pours the whole bottle into the glass.
How do the victims not see the bright red, blue and green color of that much poison?

i just wish they were a bit more useful in maybe getting some of the challenges, because as you said, silverballer just puts everything to shame.

there's a far off container that you can shoot open on the right edge of the harbor

It's probably designed to blend with the drink quickly.

its the massive black cyanide capsules that stand out to me, they could be fast acting effervescents but im no chemist and even then i wouldnt trust a fizzy instant death to not get vapors on me

Why are kill everyone runs so damn fun? Literally it seems no other game can accomplish this as well as Hitman has.

season 1 got a bad wrap from a combination of bad absolution aftertaste and bad episodic full price always online launch
people eventually saw past the mess and saw that nu human is on par with blood money

Because it's about as close to a real-life simulator as vidya can provide (when it comes to specialised, high-quality, small environments - GTA5 does a larger scale better but at the cost of less detail).

If you play on Master, all it takes is a few gunshots to kill you from full health. You can brush aside regenning from 1-2 hits as saying the bullets barely missed you.

unless it was changed in 2, this was exactly how it worked in 1, specifically the the middle east level

It's said that every great general should suffer at least one major defeat.
Suffice it to say that they realized how much they fucked up, although they're still being quite scummy in a lot of other ways.

I use it when I want to RP as John Wick. Plus it looks cool.

The ice pick is also pretty useless, but I use that for I want to RP as a mob hitman. Personally,
I just want them to introduce more fun gimmick weapons like miniguns.

they use the same engine as absolution which is why they were so against letting people mod the worst game
they just needed to fix the overall tone of the game

Only the literal NPCs did that. On maps like Marrakesh and Miami and others, a lot of the people are simply fake almost cardboard cutouts which will die in one hit even if nonlethal and they won't do much. Every other NPC actually reacts and runs or cowers and begs.

Attached: 20190319171627_1.jpg (1920x1080, 284K)

on a scale out 1000000?

Yeah, that does kind of suck. You unload onto a huge crowd of people and the NPC's start to back away and run to the same pre-designated areas of the map. But then again, it's not like anyone is seriously going to play like that, they only even implemented that much for completeness.

during later weeks I did Columbia runs with killing every guards with the suppressed baller while maintaining stealth in plain tourist clothes to simulate that feeling of a tourist in a tropical shithole with a hidden agenda

They didn't actually want to release Absolution in the state it was in. SE forced them to appeal to the CoD audience.

SE also forced the always online component, but I'm assuming that they're continuing to use it because they realise that there are some benefits to it. I'm just hoping that they allow things to be unlocked offline once the servers finally shut down.

I like the idea of making each kill seem like a believable accident with as little evidence to the contrary being left behind as possible.

I think the closest thing you can do is knock him out and hide his body for Lucas to pick up.

Yeah that guy was wrong, you actually cannot approach the Constant SA/SO.

blood money have these mechanics ingrained into the post-mission newspapers, that describes what happened. shell casings/how many shots/accidents/foul play and such. it was nice to see your efforts showing up on the news

Ironically BM was my first hitman game. Then I eventually went back to play 1 and 2. Holy shit 2 is painful, you get suspected and shot at if you fucking RUN.

Pick one.

BM is great, but it is kind of broken and also limiting compared to the new games.

yeah, it's just a nice little thing to have. the other articles also related somewhat to your next target was a nice touch aswell
have you ever tried the second game? that thing is nearly impossible to get a SA ranking. one step in the wrong direction and you have the entire map looking at you with suspicion

Everyone knows BigMooney is the best hitman content creator.

Fucking christ you faggots never cease to amaze me

the first or the second hitman would ctd in my pc every time i opened it. i probably ended emulating on dolphin or something. but i dunno if the trouble is gonna be worth it, it's really really outdated, and the stealth mechanics are just broken. unless you enjoy getting your disguise spotted because you didn't stop at the pixel perfect place for the guard to frisk you

I think it's because he makes guides for the mouthbreathing retards who can't think.
BM, on the other hand, is actually entertaining.

I fucking love double tapping people in the back like that. I know it's not as clean as the wire etc, but it just looks so cool.

CJ is a busta.

OK I figured it out, if you knock him out then have his body be discovered by someone he will bolt and Lucas Grey will hijack the helicopter he is escaping with but I don't know if you can get silent assassin rating like that.

I'm sad he didn't continue making these with Hitman 2

Kotti's 4 hour playthrough of Absolution while watching every single cutscene in the game is the single best way of experiencing Absolution today.

The entire second half of CT is pretty weak.

One thing I question is why the speedrunning community threw a shitfit over 2018's detection system being slightly broken since that one patch. They continue running BM despite it being infinitely more broken, but yet a minor glitch with the scoring system in 2018 apparently makes it literally unplayable.

I just don't get it.

Yea Forums actually has taste. Amazing

I kinda liked Absolution and its absurd story. Too bad that game was so centered around speed running levels

everyone is sensitive after christchurch

>this is how the autistic think
I hate autistic people. They're like the frog niggers of the real world

speedrunners are entitled spergs, they feel like they now hold a position of respect/power and should be able to influence iois design decisions
obviously the ship sailed long ago for blood money and the game is pretty broken all around, but it has nostalgia going for it so many are a lot more forgiving even if it is unquestionably busted as fuck and has many unfair, RNG based cycles
HM2 is still being patched every month

I haven't come back to this game in a while but is sniping still broken from that new patch?

last patch fixed it

No, they actually fucking fixed and it's amazing. Now if they fix the audio device distractions and explosion radiuses being fucked it'd be perfect.

How exactly does it work now? If I shoot someone with my silenced subsonic ghost from a mile away, guards should not be encroaching on my position immediately.

It's super wasted as just a tutorial. I hope they revisit it for another assassination, like the Paris Redux in the previous game.

They somehow fucked up the detection mechanics and if you sniped even if you were unspotted and from a secure location, after like 25 seconds, the shot would register as an unsilenced killing gunshot causing any guards to start opening fire on you.

What this usually meant was, you took all that time to set up your sniping position, get the perfect shot, then pack up to leave the level only to suddenly get HUNTED as you're most likely in guarded public areas of the level.

I'd say 40-50% of the missions suck or are mediocre. Shame you have to abuse the sliding glitch to do anything in a timely manner though.

Matador and Striker have increased damage over all ranges and has bullet penetration, while the Silverballer and other ICA19 variants don't.

They're fun pistols for psycho runs or for taking out Sierra's car in one shot while other pistols take several

nuhitman is too scripted.
