And I’m not so sure about death. Most of the death I see is in Hitman; that’s not real.

If it is your chosen secret Santa for Xmas, then it is then your secret. If you want to reveal your secret, I won’t tell others.

Well the way the internet works these days, we can have a dual of avatars, where one dies.
In terms of taxes, I am sure that the government would like to receive a cut of the pay for service that Agent 47 receives. He may be charging a prorate based on whether it is death by strangulation, katana, toilet bowl drowning, exploding propane flask etc.
I would think that he would be renumerated for the cost of drycleaning of his signature 47 MKIII suit and black gloves, especially when it comes to a lot of blood spattering such as with a circumcision knife.

Which actually brings up an interesting question in regards to how 47, and ICA for that matter, charged for the service: is there a discount if the target is an asshole?

According to canon, 47 just does what he is told, and has no emotional attachment to the target that he kills.
Possibly he gets extra money for sponsorships just like an athlete, such as to use of Steinway & Sons piano wire for strangulation kills, or use of a Manchester Sureflame, for exploding Propane Tank or Motomco All-Weather Bait Chunks, which is considered one of the best rat poisons to use.
I don’t want to hear these words leave your mouth ever again!

A possibility? Really? Why, what’s gotten you thinking that?
If there were some sort of power outage or severe thing impacting the online rollout, the delay would only be a day or a few. Not another massive months-long delay 
Alright, Mr. Murphy’s Law…

Also according to canon, he does have a sense of honor and enjoys karma and poetic Justice, as well as helping out civilians when he can. So, now that he’s in business for himself and it’s more about the pleasure of the work than the profit, would he, or Diana, or anyone in the business really, offer discounts on targets that they’d really like to see die? It’s an interesting notion now that 47’s in this place where it’s not just about the contract, but also about why he’s taking it. I dunno, just seems it would be funny to me.
Death? Yes. Taxes? Not for everyone. Some ppl don’t pay them…. Legally.

There must have been a past discussion about targets people have been sad to eliminate. I can think of a few.
Well, there is a slim possibility that Mr. Murphy has an stroke and then we can’t invoke his law out of respect for the late Mr. Murphy and his law of foreseen, but unlikely coincidences that happen to come true.

About one day remaining, and very recently I just couldn’t contain my excitement and have been looking for old CTT footage…
Found this guy’s edited stream of the final day of the Test – and his attempts at clearing a full Campaign.
Thought it was pretty funny.
I don’t want to say this, since I don’t want to push anyone into using a gameplay style that’s cheap and would ruin the core mechanics of FL, but it’s something to note, at least:
It seems to me, at least right now, that the Meta of quickly clearing levels might be “Silenced Pistol Kill across the map = eas(ier) win” This guy seems to use that quite a lot when he has a pistol, and usually succeeds & can get away very quickly. It might even be even more OP, with a Base Payout now in play… But we will see if it’s just a fluke or not…
Edit: okay, maybe that won’t be too powerful of a meta, but it can payoff if you can find a good angle with few NPCs around…

I wonder what time the update is going to be available to download?
Thought I’d have a quick search online to see if there was any details, but this is the only thing I found really.

He’s actually 47 from all those messed up timelines when we had to restart the mission, dressed up in the Santa 47 suit and blinking in and out of the main timeline as the space-time continuum gets more and more distorted. At least that’s the most scientifical explanation I could find for how he seems to teleport all over the place.
