Pretty good batch. Mirror Match in particular is fantastic.

I havenāt tried it yet but I already agree.
These types only suck when you need to tranq them, take disguise, wait, kill them. Etc.
Using existing disguises in the map is great.
I think @Vivās contracts werenāt picked because IOI have used them a few times before. She makes excellent contracts (one of my least favorite map, Shitdoza too)
What do you mean by that?

Just kill her before she fall down on the ground.So you had to take shot quickly.

I donāt normally respond to this type of post, but this is absolutely not true, and any half-decent contract creator will tell you the same thing.
With Conan = Shinichi and Mirror Match any starting location is a viable option for a decent SA run and there is no restrictions on the kill order. The only way they could be less linear is if they were Any/Any and then they wouldnāt be nearly as good as they are.
Mirror Match has no pacifications so that you canāt simply KO each target and kill them with their own disguise. Sounds to me like you simply donāt want to engage and work out the puzzle element of them, which is fine, but to say they are bad simply because of that is ignorant.
@Deimatic, @Hamushi and @Heepo have done a great job with making these contracts fun and engaging, and as another user stated, Iām sure they would all be happy to hear constructive criticism as opposed to simply āthese are bad because I donāt like this complicationā.
I need to put more time in to them, I will try again when Iām back fully on Monday

Iāve noticed that for Hitman 3 featured contracts, nobody has ever been featured more than once. Is this a coincidence or are they actively trying to not pick the same creators twice? If so, thereās not really much point in me making a contract for Wrath since I already got picked for Lust. Same goes for the other chosen creators.

There are no set rules of not getting Featured twice. We look at the contract, its content, and not who created it. And actually for this batch, I didnāt share the creators names with the 3 devs. And we ended up with the same creator twice 
The only rule is, that we donāt feature the same creator twice in one batch

Out of curiosity, can you say what the other contract was that couldnāt be put it in? If no reply - Iāll assume āNoā. 
Edit: Or did I miss it in the livestream?

The āno pacificationā objective is one of my favorite requirements. It really brings us back to the older Hitman games where NPCās couldnāt just be removed without punishment, either by lowering your score, by using up limited sedative products or by having them wake up after a while. Pacifications in the new Hitman games make it easy, with all the hiding spots, pacification tools and indefinite time of unconsciousness. They allow you to simply remove puzzle elements instead of being really challenged by them. This limitation prevents that and is old school in that sense. Love it.
The introduction of all the emetic tools, which have become an easy way to get rid of pesky NPCās without pacifying them or a quick way to isolate your targets, did make many of the no pacification contracts just ābring all your emeticsā-contracts though, so thatās a pity.

Ha, thatās actually a smart idea.
I enjoyed all 3. Especially Chongqing.
Pistol eliminations in bathroom stalls can provide some RNG but practice makes perfect 
Yeah sure, It was Johan, he really liked āGreen Withā¦ā Contract ID 1-33-7692462-89. He really likes Dartmoor

He understood what you said. He was pointing out that you disliking something doesnāt objectively make it bad. I generally dislike Sniper contracts, but Iām not just going to immediately dismiss them as bad; it just means that I personally donāt enjoy them. Itās pretty childish and close-minded of you assume that everything needs to conform to your own tastes. If you donāt enjoy a particular kind of contract, then donāt play it. Not everything is specifically tailored towards you.
If you think thereās something wrong with these contracts or thereās something that could be improved; then constructive criticism is always welcome. Itās certainly more welcome (and more productive) than the ranting and childish name-calling youāre engaging in right now. The fact that you equate people trying to maintain basic civility here with speedrunners leaving is frankly very infantile. Iād advise you self-reflect before you start blaming people.

Your statement was: āNo Pacifications make your contract badā.
That statement is at least questionable, others likely have a different and more differentiated opinion.
Crewdy gave you one such opinion. With elaborated explainations. Unlike you. And saying your statement is āabsolutely not trueā is justified, as with being one who likes No Pacifications in certain situations, the generalized statement of yours is proven wrong. Contracts which forbid pacifications canāt be ābadā in general if not every possible player agrees with you.
If you think having a different opinion than you makes this place not enjoyable, you donāt have to be here. But I am pretty sure 2016 people were allowed to have their own opinions as well.

Aw, I forgot to tag you too though. I saw you right near the top 
There is a 2 minute+ gap between me and the #2 on Chongqing. I think people are struggling with that one. Well, as of last night anyway.
