You can do that with any car on any map and it'll count as an accident kill so long as no one was killed with the thing you're using to set off the car. Wait, hang on, I'm pretty sure anyone killed with a propane tank/fire extinguisher explosion is written off as an accident kill.

For me, the meat of the ET system is the learning of behaviour patterns, spotting of opportunities, the careful "don't step over the line until you're totally ready" play, and then finally the excitement of taking the plunge and knowing this is now your only chance. In other words, capturing the feel of actual assassin work. Just seeing the final take where you sprint through knowing every millisecond of what you had to do felt a bit...cut and dried. I hope you'll show more of the process when you get to ETs on levels the LP has seen.

Wait, hang on, I'm pretty sure anyone killed with a propane tank/fire extinguisher explosion is written off as an accident kill. Yeah, fire extinguisher kills got so prevalent in ETs that they actually made an ET where it had to be an accident kill and you were specifically barred from using explosives, just to try to force people out of a default approach. I think that one might have been on Colorado too.

Yeah, this one was a bit rushed because it's a combination of the fact that the LP hasn't actually hit this map yet and that I just really, really do not like this map in general.

It's also worth noting that a previous ET was literally Gary Busey.

I don't even own this game, but it's fun looking up people doing ET's on youtube that don't cookiecutter it, the tricks they get up to are amazing at times.

What gets me about those trailers is that they declare 47 as "The Original Assassin." I get the that it's meant to be a dig at Assassin's Creed and all that but one, The Developers tried to turn him into Batman in that game, and two, he's pretty much a Gogol 13 knockoff.

All your talking about Bond (and yeah, it definitely seems this episode was a glorious Bond homage) makes me wonder why nobody's tried to make a kind of espionage sim like this before. I mean, there was Alpha protocol, but that seemed a lot more conventional action game.

gently caress yeah Paris. It's probably my favourite level, and it's a great way to show off the strengths of Hitman Trademark.

MadScientistWorking posted:Wait what the hell? Please don't tell me the goofy Colorado costume was an Absolution reference. Yes. The scarecrow section was one of the few decently-handled parts of Absolution. The game's still considered canon, technically.

There have been a number of others, but this is a genre that's incredibly resource intensive and difficult to make good.

Man, you really like defaulting to the "Poison, then Drown" method of taking out your target, don't you? I suppose that's because it seems simple and available at all times, it means its a fallback method should the player screw everything else up.

As long as you can get the right disguise and find their drink, it's a reliable way to get them alone (which mean they're dead meat.)

I'm gonna show some other opportunities the further we go into each level, but the idea I had was to use the first video of any level to show off the relevant parts of the level and demonstrate a simple kill method for the targets. Next week, we'll get into some of the other fun things we can do in Paris.

Wouldn't be the first time MI6 has outsourced extra-judicial operations, if the documentary comic of Modesty Blaise is to be believed. Edit: Hah, the fashion show is called Sanguine Ice. Or cold-blooded. Edit edit: They really missed the chance of a poetic irony cheevo by having the guy's favourite cocktail being a Screwdriver, then you killing him with one.

You should listen in on the conversation the between the npcs near the Iago invitation you picked up. And then follow the elderly lady. And then follow victor after that.

I'd wonder why 47 never got the barcode removed, if he didn't have magic disguise powers that made it not matter.

Hell even just hiding it with makeup, something that's very common if you have tattoos but work in for example, high end restaurants.

Really by his age it should be meaninglessly blurry. Bar codes kind of need more precision than you can keep on a tattoo for that many years.
