Very much a wishful feature, But later down the line campaign creation by players making different contracts on the level and combining to make a small campaign. So have the limit on the items, use and death objectives.
Add some new features like choosing NPC route variations, Safe Location and data retrieval objectives while removing more instant fail complications.
Itâs 100% the best thing that happened to Hitman IMO. Thatâs just the most logical thing to do with all the years of maps and the hitman concept. Yay!
But now that Iâm thinking about it⌠itâs a hard thing to balance. Can you keep normal items from maps? If so, many items lose their purpose. The screwdriver is better than 99% of the lethal melee items. Likewise for the crowbar and wrench, and maps are full of these. All maps have regular guns for free and many have silenced weapons and lethal poisons.
Most items I wouldnât even take for free either, unless goofing off on purpose: ex. loud large shotguns, big melee items, etc. The concealable shotgun could be nice as an escape plan if things go south.
EDIT: Eh, maybe only âboughtâ items can transfer maps, you can explain that the price includes a âsmugglingâ fee. Put a little logo on these items to identify them. There, solved!
So, now that we know the fancy house is for certain 47âs safe house, and we can customize it how we wish as we progress, I think Iâll have to go against my own grain. In the past, Iâd have left 47âs surroundings very spartan and tactical. No flashy cars or fancy accessories, thatâs not his style and not what youâd expect of a world-class assassin trying to maintain a low profile. But now that heâs gone ahead and purchased (built?) this half-glass woodsy palace that rivals Alma Reynardâs beach house, low profile and spartan style is out the window. Iâm gonna go whole hog; if 47 is leaning into the luxurious lifestyle now, after all this time, then Iâm actually gonna embrace it. Heâs gonna get the most pimped-out stuff available to select. High-class Hitman, coming for you.
The video suggests the safe house is kinda overgrown at first. Maybe you can keep it like that and pretend he lives in a forgotten building with some high tech equipment, less like Reynardâs house and more like the house in Colorado.
I get to roleplay 47 being an interior designer and I get a whole other mode with it, so hyped.
During that segment they did show footage of The Author from Patient Zero, and while this could have just been unrelated footage, I really hope this means we get missions in the barely used bonus missions.
I love The Author but itâs ignored hard and doesnât even have contracts. And Iâd love to have a calmer version of bright Hokkaido or a fun version of the day time Mumbai and foggy Santa Fortuna. Please donât just focus on the missions freely available in contracts mode.
a fully customizable 47 would be fantastic too. Imagine having the power to choose different faces,eyes,hands that arent feminine and outfits from classic games. i still crave a classic 47 that looks like the codename 47 model
@Urben, @Mini, nah, that house would be fairly easy to follow a trail back to, if someone sees a car or motorcycle or boat speeding out of the area, or a helicopter flying overhead from it, and started wondering. It would be even more suspicious to keep it looking dilapidated on the outside. The fact that itâs not some out of the way shack in the underbelly of a major city where nobody knows anybody or remembers any faces is already a step away from 47âs established style and into him fully embracing his status as a more lethal James Bond-type without the constant women around to fuck (donât anybody get any ideas!). So Iâm gonna swank this place up so long as heâs staying in it anyway.
Imagine theyâre there and itâs just too small to see. Thatâs what I do.
If it helps, imagine he just got a generic barcode tattooed there after cutting up the first one in Absolution.
Also, with this, customizable suits may be possible. These new modes are changing the bones of the game in areas that werenât possible before because of how it had been programmed. I imagine other changes can be installed later through then, such as switching suit accessories.
