He’s choosing them from among a list of dossiers. Who gave him the dossiers? Diana. There’s not gonna be anyone innocent among them.
In any event, it’s not necessarily that 47 and Diana go after bad people; they go after people who think they can’t be touched, who think they can do a thing and get away with it. That typically involves people who are actually criminals, but some who haven’t actually done anything to deserve death, like Dino Bosco and Penelope Graves, can still make the list because they don’t think there’ll be consequences for their choices. That’s what 47 and Diana see themselves as; punishment when you thought there’d be none. That leaves the door open for future installments to have 47 go after “innocent” people, so long as they’ve pissed someone off in some way and think they’re gonna get away with it. Plus, there’s always the fact that 47 sometimes can’t allow potential witnesses to live, like the courier, reporter and priest in Blood Money.
If you desire to make that topic, go for it; it’s a good topic idea, presuming it hasn’t already been created. The seeming insinuation that the discussion of 47’s target selection in Freelancer, and the motivation(s) behind that, is poorly placed in this Freelancer discussion thread is not one I can say I agree with, though.
It wouldn’t be surprising if she’s directly involved.
That there is now even a “they” is what is unfortunate. Diana has always selected and went after specific targets; 47 has almost always just been doing what he does best, with little regard for who his victims are. After WoA, 47 is now taking out targets with Diana’s conscience, as opposed to by way of Diana’s conscience. Whereas before he had his own separate drives with little regard to if his targets thought themselves untouchable, in Freelancer, he’s now apparently driven directly by Diana’s brand of justice.
Since it’s been said that the 7DS was a preliminary run for things that will happen in FL, perhaps there will come a point where we’ll have to defend our pad like in Wrath. Maybe after so many of those Dossiers that we work through.
You did have to defend the church in Silent Assassin. So it’s either defending or clearing them out after returning.
Mugging the couriers for Mercers = Greed.
…Not sure how Gluttony might fit in (yet… if it even will). Edit: There were some optional objectives like killing guards with a sniper rifle.
Pride? Might have to do with things you can choose to complete a mission with (like the surprise crate with 3 items). Or the Arms Dealers within a mission.
Lust is gathering intel. It also had safes.
Envy is the (rival?) assassin in the Showdowns. But I’m not sure if they can (try to) kill you (too?).
Sloth… Well, that was about efficiency. Perhaps if you run you might raise suspicion. If you get detected or become suspicious… You’ll then be attacked.
Edit: It wasn’t so much about being quick, but finding the shortest or most direct path… while mostly walking… Since you were penalized for running, and it was meant to be avoided. Sorry for any confusion my statement may have caused. It was strictly in regards to the Sloth whatever. Not playing this game in general.
I have a feeling that ^this might’ve been mentioned already. Sorry if it was.
I don’t know that a topic exactly like that exists but the forum has had the morally grey and totally undeserving targets conversation before (a few times actually).
It always comes down the same way. A majority of members prefer all targets be totally deserving of death. Then the rest of us are kinda evenly split between those who think some morally grey targets are fine and those of us who could care less or even prefer to have targets like Klaas Teller from Contracts and the Priest and Reporter from BM. Like it or not… 47 is basically an agent for good now.
I hope so! It would be cool to see a couple unique weapons you can not buy come from them too. Kinda like the pistol that Mark Parrayay or Mark Parcheesi or whatever the guys name in the BM White House level had.
go into game over before the objectives are completed (mission failed and you have to retry it in alerted mode) - failed
go into game over after the objectives are completed (the mission is validated and you can move on, but still lose the equipment and half of your mercers) - wounded
Apparently the exit will always be open to use, and I even wonder if we could go to any destination, irregardless of missions active in it.
In the end,I think it’s a way to say that under all circumstance, a game over is with consequences, no easy way. Even if it’s just when you shop, or go against the couriers.
At best you won’t have to come back and retry everything from the start on the main missions.
That’s always happened. Any disguise or suit with glasses has the glass not render in reflections. It’s to save on processing power as they’d have to render what the glass is reflecting and if it’s reflecting glass, having to render what that glass is reflecting and so on.
Interesting thought I had: wouldn’t it be fun if the RNG for Freelancer sometimes spat out unique targets? like maybe the Caruso Brothers or Byron Washington might appear randomly and have their own voice lines and appearance
I would love either a toggle switch or maybe a parallel game mode where if you die you start over at zero with nothing in your house and nothing unlocked again.
I totally get how frustrating that would be for people who have a bunch of unlocks which is why I suggested the parallel mode. Call it Freelancer Professional or Freelancer Hardcore or Freelancer Tomagotchi mode. You die, you go back to zero.
@Clemens_IOI Any interest in the ultimate challenge?
I have an email: " EXCLUSIVE INVITE HITMAN 3: Freelancer Closed Technical Test". It means I’m one of choosed players for test, or it’s just a invitation to register?
