Glad you like it IT.. hell of a game. Sapienza is even better than Paris

Agreed - Sapienza is probably my favourite mission overall, in fact.
(Although Colorado is kinda fun, especially if you don't try to 'silent assassin' it and treat all the militants at the camp as hostiles and just kill/fight them instead of knocking them out or distracting them, if they're in your path. I apparently killed 130 people last time I did it, which netted me a nice zero-star score)

Also, what's this about a vampire magician outfit? This is the first I've heard of it

It's in the attic of Paris mansion



It seems to have the same access as suit 47 but you cant get into the auction with it. It gives unique dialogue with basically every NPC in the level making fun of you or being scared by the vampire

Also the nvidia shadowplay replay thing seems to work pretty well but I have no loving clue where the mic audio in this clip came from. I didn't have a mic plugged in

Oh cool, guess I'll be loading up Paris again, when I get home. That's a shame, though - it should totally allow you to get onto the catwalk and strut around doing vampire poses, similar to when you dress up as Kruger. :D Missed opportunity!

Also, if you get the sniper rifle at the end of the Hokkaido mastery track, (don't recall the name, but it's the same one that's in the previous Hitman games) do you get it disassembled in a briefcase that you can carry around and remain incognito with? (Like in Blood Money, where 47 would take a minute to unpack and assemble the rifle when you get it out of the case)
Or is it permanently assembled, like all the other rifles in the game?

theres no briefcase rifle, people are assuming they are saving that for the end of season 2 or 3

Hokkaido is cool. I knocked out like four people on the helipad stairwell in my first playthrough because more and more guys with new cool disguises kept stumbling into my stash of naked unconscious men. I went in as a tech guy, briefly became a pilot and left a head surgeon

I did a full escalation and I like that Level 5 is basicaly just a completely different assassination. Theres so many though, its kinda overwhelming, I think Im gonna put down Paris for now and just wait for the sale. Cant wait to try out Sapienza and the other maps

drat, that's unfortunate. Makes sense though I guess, to spread the goodies out across the seasons, rather than cramming all the best ones into S1. (Speaking of which, have they indicated when S2 will come out? Start of next year I'm guessing, or?)
I'm not sure what they'll add as rewards aside from the briefcase sniper rifle, though. I really hope that they add in suppressed versions the UMP, FNC (I think? The game's AR basically) and the other weapons that you can obtain in levels, as they look sooo much better than the generic-brand blocky blue rifle, SMG and shotgun.

paris and sapienza have a ton of escalations and the other maps hardly have any, cuz they were earlier in the season so more have had time to come out

Oh they added more escalations over time? That's cool. I hope season 2 doesn't start soon because I wanna digest all this Content. I'll probably definitely buy the S2 pass though

I don't really like the challenges they add that you can only complete in user-made contracts. Some of them are probably cool I guess but there's no way to filter them by rating or anything and I'm not playing lovely fan missions just to tick off a "snipe 5 guys" box

It doesn't matter really but I was excited for the master sniper challenges :(

i started an escalation mission and one of the items it turned on is that between the killing the first and second target, you must kill at least 1 person per minute or you fail

I spent 30 minutes trying to figure out how to kill the therapist and eventually I did by just pushing himofff the ledge in broad daylight and hiding in a dumpster until people forgot about me and then taking his clothes. THat was a fun kill on silvio and as I left his private quarters the lady was in the next room by herself for some reason so I just walked in, snapper her neck and moved downstairs. Destroying the virus was kind of a pain and I wonder how in the world you can do that suit only. There must be a way to clear the lab or something
