Bangkok is an awesome map, hotel is basically the perfect location for this game because it lets them get fun with each room as they want and it has a huge variety of staff types and a whole basement section. I killed cross by pushing him off the roof and killed the lawyer by getting him downstairs to the laundry room and garroting him while he was on the phone. I need to find more ways to mess with the lawyer though, that letter was the only thing I found. I may just tag him for a while and see what he's up to

there's a hotel/casino in blood money and it also rules. i wish they would revisit/touch up some of the old maps like the suburban party or the english hunting lodge

Yeah, Beldingford Manor would be awesome to revisit. Little flashback missions might be a fun idea for DLC down the line. Have they announced where the final bonus mission is taking place? You could probably do some interesting stuff with the Bangkok map if all the wings were open and all the rooms had guests in them.

My only issue so far is that the fps goes nuts if i try to run it in my monitor's native res (3440×1440). Otherwise it all looks good, it all feels fluid. Only other thing that bothers me is the voice acting a bit but what can you do.

Mine's the guy in Hokkaido who's getting plastic surgery to look like Helmut Kruger and he gets really pissed off at you for stealing his idea and rants at you for a while if he sees you.

"So we are looking for a new drummer to carry out some new recordings"
"...someone who can carry out a hit without being seen?"
"Uhhhh sure"
"Good. That's my specialty."
I love the awkward situations 47 ends up having to bluff his way throuhg in this game. His dumb jokes are so good

I do wish they'd add a more advanced SSAO method. I had to turn it off because it causes really obvious shadow pop-in as you move the camera :(

Me too. The Sapienza clown is soooo good. I would especially like it if they had challenges like the vampire/santa ones to unlock them, those are fun.

I did the same thing like 4 times to see if my timing was off and it would just kill him. It never does.

i think you have to take out the designer guy (and possibly the bodyguard) so the target takes the stage alone. you can get him to leave the backstage area by dropping a coin in the diorama behind him.

this char is good
My friend got this for me this Christmas and I've just gotten out of a 3 hour session. Good loving game. Got through Sapienza, put on the plague doctor suit and shot a guy on the balcony for laughs, went back into the planetarium room and saw Silvio coming right my way thanks to the alarm, so I pulled out the sacrificial knife and domed him with it before running away. It was badass and I can't wait to start playing this game for real. I'm just going through with "kill the targets however" for my first run through these levels, and even that much is giving me a good bit to think about. Hell yeah

i got the fugu poison to poison both targets in Hokkaido and it took me forever to figure out the second way but it was cool

you can lift up the partition between the empoyee break room and the kitchen and let the staff get at the food. i need to figure out what this lets you do next play through. I hope it's a cool way to get a doctors clothes and not a lame way to distract the cooks

I turned off Opportunities for almost the entire game and only really needed it for like four challenges that are triggered by standing in a particular place at a particular time. I've also never used Instinct. It seems like it would make the game way too easy.

instinct is just a 3d version of the old map where everyone was a power symbol. and also you can move while using it

I've been doing all the maps with every hitman sense and aide turned off and it's really good. I'm also trying to do hits that I haven't done before. I had a really good one with the lady scientist in Italy where I planted and explosive phone in her office and her guard discovered it and brought it to her like "I think your phone was ringing" and it blew up right after lol
