Ask HMF anything

I guess it was a bad idea.

I don’t know, man. Isn’t being registered as a regular good enough? There was a time that HMF needed that much of manpower back when H3 was released in 2021. Tons of new users made posts, hence the need of more moderators. Now the forum is just not as popular as then. Perhaps we can do this when there’s a new game for Hitman.

There are plenty of new users joining recently. But I get what you’re saying, makes sense. Regular is good.
We’re gonna wait a long time before a new Hitman launches. Anyway, it’s an idea.

If I remember correctly that was due to the creators of the Discourse forum software considering it.

To the best of my knowledge, there hasn’t really been enough push for it so it hasn’t been developed further.

I posted in the Upcoming Movies topic, then didn’t see it from the main index…

Anyway, apparently I muted the topic for some reason at some point.

So I’m wondering if there’s a way to see or find topics we’ve muted? I mean, outside of knowing which ones we’ve muted and simply searching for them.

There is this link under Preferences > Tracking, at the bottom of that site.

Is the outstanding achievement coin still basically unobtainable in freelancer or did that get patched?

Yeah, that got fixed with the last one.

Something like this…

Regarding the profile header… I had to click on :fast_down_button: Expand to see the pic.

User Card Background can be seen when you click on anyone’s avatar (assuming they have one set), but it’s a bit grayed out (maybe a bit too much -IMO).

Does anybody have a list of the dates that content released for Hitman 2016? In particular, the dates that all the escalations and challenge packs were activated?

I’m trying to do a release order run of all the content in the trilogy, but while the roadmaps cover pretty much everything added to Hitman 2/3 there are barely any roadmaps for 2016’s content.

The wiki lists release dates for escalations

But I’m not sure about challenge packs

I always click on the x and say “discard”. It works.

I despise the rubber ducks, it stopped being ”fun” after the first version. It was a semi entertaining call back to a C47 mission and BM art work.

Then IO decided that the ducks was his new go to signature weapon, because 47 is just that quirky and aloof…he isn’t. It doesn’t fit his character whatsoever. The ducks should at most be Easter eggs scattered around different maps.

More duckies they are fun and whimsical

I never thought I’d say that, but there are chances we have more duckies/same number than ICA 19 Reskins. We even have a Ducky ICA 19!

They are part of his inventory and often depicted in art work surrounding his load out. I hate them with a burning passion of a thousand suns.

IO are water boarding the community with this foul rubber bird.

They actually do not appear that much. It’s just that when they do they stick out like a sore thumb, especially to anyone that finds them distasteful. I mean, what if one of his “Signature Weapons” was (speaking hypothetically) a sex toy? Every time they’d have a camera pan over his arsenal - there’d be that vile dildo, just sitting there. You’d then be reminded of it’s first instance in a Hitman game, probably shaking your head and/or cringing.

While I voted for more duckies, I only think there are a few missing that have special or different effects than mere explosions. Explosion (non-accident) kills are a very small percentage of kills when SA is the goal. Other than that they can be used to make proxy explosions for accident kills. Or to cause a panic, or open locked doors. But so can any other (non-duck) explosive.

Here’s the deal with the Duckers. Functionally speaking, they’re a deadly but legal item to hold.

Perhaps in a different universe, you would’ve had C4 Demolition blocks stuffed inside a teddy bear. :teddy_bear: :collision: Edit: I mean, we already have the Iconator, the Bear thing from the 7DS, and the waving robot cat.

And you can guarantee there’d be haters of explosive teddy bears. But! Here’s the best part… Nobody is forcing anyone else to use them. Need an explosion? Stick to your principles and bring in that illegal item that will compromise you the instant you take it out of your magic pockets within view of any NPCs.

One could also say they’re making the game easier by providing a legal item. But I’m reminded of a very integral part of hitman games. You can change disguises to enter areas where you would be deemed “illegal” (or trespassing). I don’t see disguising explosives as harmless ducks any different than the disguise system.

The ducks are fine. But I won’t blame anyone for being irritated at the numerous reskins. What else doesn’t have 20 reskins?
