Elusive Target Arcade

The player can also just chill for 15 minutes and Diana will tell them who it is. Did that the other day, they haven’t taken it out in this mode.

Hi guys, i played hitman 1 and 2 and now i bought hitman 3. From hitman 1 and 2 i failed and missed sоme Elusive Target, it’s gone forever? or i will be able to play them in Elusive Target Arcade? I remember i failed elusive Sean Bean he was twice in the game, first time i failed, second internet was disconnected from the service. I would like to replayed all my failed targets is this possible?

Unfortunately, no. The targets in this mode aren’t the same as the stand-alone Elusive Targets. And Sean Bean’s character The Undying was exclusive to Hitman 2, so he won’t be returning in H3.

Maybe they could make some sort of deal with Sean Bean such as selling lifelong access to The Undying and The Undying Returns for the same cost of the game.

It should be so simple.

Really, it should. Throw in Gary Busey and the Sarajevo Six while they’re at it.

Maybe more to do with Warner brothers than only Sean Bean.

Everything else in H2 is in H3 including the bat shaped ninja stars (Batarangs). If WB were gonna have a problem with something, it would’ve been that :laughing:

This mode is perfect for playing drunk.

Probably is an element. Travis said somewhere recently that the deal had more than two parties involved - so its just been put in the “not worth it” pile to spend money on lawyers to get a new agreement assembled to be able to release the content for free and have no way of recuperating the costs to be able to use it again.

At least originally for H2 they used Sean Bean in various pre-launch trailers to build hype around the game and likely lead to some people buying the game that otherwise wouldn’t have so there was a possible path to recuperate the original costs back then that wouldn’t be there now.

Well, sorry for them, but I’m of the should-have-thought-of-that-when-you-made-the-original-deal mentality. They presented the product and got their consumers to like it and we want it back, and so now they should be delivering.

Do you people just not wanna have fun with ets?

To be fair, this really is one ET where such a complication would make sense and lend weight to the mission. The only issue I have is that you’d have to start all the way over and do the other 3 ETs prior to it to get back there if you mess up. I think the whole issue of complications would be slightly if it didn’t force you to completely start over after failing. I think that’s part of what convinced IO to scrap the other complications, because failing just one on the last mission of the contract is agonizing enough, without adding more on top of that.

That particular suggestion would eliminate the ability to cheese it - where you just kill one of the three options and if you get a non-target kill, you just restart until the game makes the person you’re targeting Ji-Hu. They could limit the complication so it’s just “don’t eliminate the other facial surgery patients” so its not restricting you from killing other non-targets completely.

Much as i hate the complications, that’s one that at least works.

I completely misread that as no civilian pacification, no elimination is completely fine.no Pacifications just sucks

For people who can’t tell which of the two hackers is the target in “The Deceits” Level 5 mission “The Black Hat” or simply don’t care.

Well the the name of the ET gives it away. “The Black Hat” really wears a black hat.

And yet I always have to ask myself “which one was it again?”.

I really wish that on top of all these cool groupings there was a one where you play them all in a random order with no extra restrictions and no restarts allowed. Use a random number generator so each attempt is different and just see if you can make it through the 30+ or however many there actually were over the trilogy.

Since I don’t ever see them releasing ETs stand alone, an Elusive Target Gauntlet would be a fun endurance challenge.
