Hello There! Allow me to introduce myself. - Arti

Wow! I’ve not been on the forum for a week and a bit and loads of things happen! Firstly, welcome to the community and as you’ve seen by the many comments left, there is very much an active group of HITMAN fans and players who frequent this place, and I’m sure we’re all looking forward to the future to see what comes next!

Thank you for the post! :smile:

Welcome to the forum of assassination and IOI, @ioi_artjoms :slight_smile:

Question: Do you have a go-to suit for your missions?

Oh, and to help you get better acquainted with HMF, it’s good to know Frote’s Speedrun Community. Gives you a scope of how crafty and creative people can be while encouraging others to get good haha. IOI has officially backed their tournaments before, and it’s a fun watch if you get the chance.

Also thank you to those who mentioned my animations. It means a lot to have my work to be considered for this <3

Welcome.
I have one question.
Regarding the long-standing game mode “Contracts” in HITMAN.
Despite the “Featured Contracts” being added regularly, there have been almost no updates to the mode itself.
For example, there are many features I’d like to see updated, such as a “contract deletion function,” “options for contract visibility (public, friends only, private, etc.),” a “post-play rating system (like counts or a 5-star average rating),” and a “search function by creator name.” Is there a reason why such convenience-enhancing features aren’t being added?
Or is it technically impossible?

I second this suggestion about updating the actual contracts mode itself (assuming it is possible).

I have some additional suggestions as well for the Contracts mode:

  1. In addition to having a “My Favorites” and “My History" feature that is already in the game, I would like to see the ability to download contracts - and have a UI label that lets you know whether or not it was a Featured Contract or not.
  2. Moving Ambrose Island between Whittleton Creek and Isle of Sgàil like it is in the Destinations tab.
  3. Adding the Berlin Egg Hunt and The Mills Reverie to Contracts mode (just like the Hokkaido Snow Festival, Holiday Hoarders, Dartmoor Garden Show already are).
  4. The ability to combine main missions with Special Assignments and/or Elusive Target Missions to have a greater variety of Targets/NPCs. I can understand not doing the Celebrity missions and leaving out the less popular Elusive Targets, but I’d like the challenge of running both Elusive Targets of Colorado along with a random NPC from the main map, or maybe doing Hokkaido with a The Surgeons, The Fugitive, and Yuki Yamazaki.

If I can think of more additions, I’ll respond to this comment.

In the deepdives or developer’s diary (or for the 10th anniversary), I would like official confirmation that the Constant is the Mystery Man from Hitman 2: Silent Assassin. I was so expecting it to be revealed in Hitman 3 (2021), and it wasn’t mentioned as far as I could find

I know you haven’t played Silent Assassin yet, so this doesn’t yet mean anything to you. But when you play it, you’ll probably realize what I mean :smile:

EDIT: Also confirmation that the shadowy group from Blood Money and WoA are one in the same!

You know, I figure this is as good a time as any to ask (again)

Ever since release, I’ve been unable to select the Projection Bar smuggle point in Berlin. Even though I’ve reached mastery 20 and should be able to use it, it still shows as locked. I have absolutely no idea why.

My Steam copy of the game is completely able to use it, but on Epic it remains inexplicably locked.

I’m also only able to use my special Season 1 unlocks (the travel briefcase, black winter suit, and performance coin) on Steam as well, which I think had something to do with an issue with progress transfer. I’ve messaged support about both of these a few times over the past few years, but nothing ever came of it.

Any help with these would be very appreciated :]

Hi, what would be cool is a mode that allows players to make and post Elusive Targets.
IOI developers can create a mode where players can make a female or male avatar for an Elusive Target, and play out the movements of the Elusive Target from the start of a location, including the saving of actions, like killing NPCs or stealing from safes, and then goes into a loop that repeats itself. Once saved, the maker of the Elusive Target, can draft and post a story, of the Elusive Target, and post objectives, such as killing the Elusive Target before it kills and NPC or steals from a safe.

I have a feature suggestion for IOI and I didn’t really know where to put this, so I’m posting it here.

@ioi_artjoms
Within the IOI account settings players can opt into receiving marketing e-mails from IOI. Would it be possible to have finer controls than just an on/off switch for marketing communication? For example, I would like to receive e-mails regarding Hitman, but not for 007 First Light. It would be amazing, if players could select interests and only receive e-mails within those topics.

@jan342 I was going to post this same question myself. I want to receive information on Hitman and its future but do not want to receive information on First Light. I support this option.

I’d also want them to enable some sort of support for 2FA for IOI Accounts. Since its the main hub of in-game rewards and things like cross-progression, would really suck if the account were to be hijacked.
