I also remembered like 3 seconds after I posted that I died on Miami on my first attempt because I picked up that battle axe while hiding in the gym and a guard saw me in the room sized mirror which I thought was awesome.

Hitman Absolution was basically just Splinter Cell: Conviction with the disguise system bolted on. I thought it was fine for what it was on its own terms but it wasn’t much of a Hitman game.

Yeah, CBT is right. It's a kinda ok game I guess IF you forget that it's meant to be a Hitman game. If you go in expecting it to be Blood Money 2, (like most people did) then you'll be sorely disappointed.
That being said, a HD remaster of Blood Money (especially if the updated controls are anything like Hitman 2016's) would be fantastic!

I started playing absolution recently and it was interesting to see like how much of it was kept for the new engine but man the writing and level design is bad. Still looks decent though, and if youre a big hitman fan and missed it i guess its worth seeing. That being said i got up to beating the orphanage level and havent touched it since lol

There has to be a faster way to SA Miami than waiting for the race to finish. Elf said in the Chat that sniping her car can count as an accident, is there a way to know if it's Silent without just doing the mission and seeing if you get the SASO credit?

Got SASO on Miami :cool: 1 out of 5. Sgail and Mumbai are the only maps I think that are gonna be a nightmare. Everything else feels doable.

I mean its silent if you arent hunted or “investigating”, and even if you get “investigating” or whatever its called, if you can hide the body before anyone sees its silent. Accident and poison kills count as silent even if the body is found

There are a few ways to trigger the race to instantly finish besides sniping her car but I'm not sure of any Suit Only solutions. You can dress up as a race official and wave the flag to disqualify her or Amos Moses and you can also perform a (nonlethal) sabotage on either of their cars disguised as pit crew to make the race end

Mumbai is fine, just use the signal smoke or w/e to lure all the targets out

Played some casual Miami again today and found the explosive pyro kill. Awesome, and it made me wish for more PIP style kills. If that thing was smarter I could probably stop using the Hitman Vision.

Mumbai is so loving awesome. Just did my first run with the Kashmirian opportunities. Probably my favorite map ever on the basis of that alone

I can't wait for that ET to come out next week - the gap between ETs is just a week or two too long, I feel. I need more celebrities to strangle, drat it! :D
Oh well, at least other content has been coming out in the meantime, like that escalation

Pleasantly surprised to see that IOI just opened a second studio. I know Hitman 2 sales weren't great at launch from what we know but I assume this means that they're not doing that poorly

Awesome. I don't think it made AAA sales but I'm sure it turned a decent profit, it probably wasn't made on a massive budget

I bet most of the people who bought the game also bought the dlc because of the new maps. And so the lack of sales was blunted by super fans spending $100.
