It's 2006. I am taking 276 yeti furs from the goodies hoard.
if i bought the episodes piecemeal instead of the season bundle do I not get access to the Sapienza "The Icon" mission and whatever that special Marrakesh one is? when i try to select them it just takes me to the store page but there's nothing left to actually buy since i own all the eps. from what i heard i'm not missing out on all that much but that's still extremely fuckin lame if true lol . that's what i get for trying to save 4 cents by buying them one by one at 4.99 apiece instead of in a bundle for 24.99 ..... gaming on a budget

Just beat Sapienza for the first time. My method:


The virus was first. I'd found out about the biolab laptop dongle on a trip down there in another run, but was way too late to find the scientist in the church. So for my winning run, I went to the church first, punched her out in the confessional because I didn't want to wait for her to go be alone with the body in the morgue, ran out of the church, knocked out the morgue keeper, then stole the lab outfit from the corpse. A ton of scientists find you suspicious in a lab coat, but if you jog you can run past them before they figure you out. I subdued the scientist by the laptop and activated it, and then it was a clear run out the cave.

That led me to the section with the cannons. While trying to find my way back, I realized one cannon aimed at the golf course. Used that to kill the male target whose name I'm forgetting. The creepy dude.

I found di Silva, and eavesdropped on her phone conversation. While considering my next move, I found the faucet and loose wire, and killed her with that while hiding up on the roof.

I tried to go find the secret room with the plague outfit and the security box to erase the camera footage, but couldn't remember where it was even though I'd found it on an unsuccessful run. So I just ended up disguising myself as housekeeping and walking out the front door, then took the car to end the mission.

Finally beat Marrakesh after being too retarded to do it for a while. Disguising yourself as the prisoner and then breaking Zaydan's neck when he comes to interrogate you is so badass

Bangkok had a good one too. Disguising as hotel staff, leading the lawyer to his penthouse, and spending like 5 minutes getting berated and forced to clean by him makes drowning him in the toilet he's inspecting for cleanliness so unbelievably satisfying. I love this game.

Bangkok has one that's pretty circuitous but awesome that involves this same opportunity. It can be tough to figure this out but I'll tag it because it's one of the game's best:

If you disguise yourself as an exterminator and talk to the hotel manager, she'll make Jordan Cross vacate his penthouse and wait in the atrium. Then, if you disguise yourself as a bellhop and tell Ken Morgan his suite is ready, you can make him follow you through the atrium so Cross sees him. The briefing mentions that Cross had no idea Morgan was at the hotel. They get in an argument and Morgan asks him to talk privately in his suite. Cross already has a penchant for pushing people off buildings and well...

The name for this is Oops! I did it again! :v:

If you sneak off to the side of the building where the little guard shack is, past the two flight crew members talking about the safety check, you can sneak around the hangar to a pipe you can climb to get to the bathroom near the command room where Jesper's chessboard is. From here you can use coin fuckery or the sink to lure his guard in, then you can kill Jesper pretty easily by garroting, shooting, neck snapping, etc. Hide his and his guard's body in the bathroom crate. Leave the way you came and you can probably manage it all in just a few minutes.

I beat marrakesh, seemed a bit easier than Sapienza but there's also a lot of fun looking stuff in the embassy, didn't explore much of the army area because I stumbled on an easy kill right away. I became the masseuse and broke that guy's neck and hid in the closet in the prisoner's room and garroted the general

I think Marrakesh is my least favorite of the levels so far. The crowd area is cool but kind of irrelevant for basically all the kills.

I've managed part of Marrakesh so far, taken out the general. Threw a can of cola at a guard, then scissors at the general. Still my favorite way to assassinate targets. It's fun to have a signature style. I did it while he was in the middle of mocking the prisoner, too, which made it very satisfying. In Paris, I flung scissors at the designer while he was on the phone in front of his bodyguard. But I messed up the embassy pretty quick. I like to run entire levels in one go, rather than reload saves, and Marrakesh is going to take a while because it's so long. So far, I've only reloaded once, because of a bug/unintended issue: When the printers go to turn on the press after the general's lecture, it counts as investigating the turned-off press. I was standing in line with them watching the lecture, when one of them yelled "Hey, you did this!" and then every single person in the room freaked out. So I reloaded, because lmao.

Everything about this game is amazing. Areas feel very lived-in, and it's so much better at sandbox gameplay than actual open world games. Turns out a small area packed with stuff is more interesting than a giant-rear end Bethesda hellhole, who knew. This is a contender for GOTY for me.
