Hitman 3 - 3.110 - May 24th Patch Notes

This comes off to me like a weapon planned for Ambrose Island as an unlock was listed incorrectly when implemented and thus overrode the DAK Gold Covert.

EDIT: After reading some “classified intel”, I can say this is very likely the case.


They also changed the NPC model to a completely different ethnicity.

Probably could have mitigated this specific problem better by renaming them to Monica W. Ansdal or Monica “W” Ansdal.

This was the previous roadmap image released two weeks ago…

I went and checked earlier as it caught me by surprise.

It was going to be a reactivation but was silently changed for the update today.

Was probably just a mistake on the roadmap image tbh since it’s activating after the patch released, so they would’ve been able to add the required “Year 2” data to the game which is why the other two got reactivated - the planned April patch didn’t happen and so the required data was absent.

The thing I was most curious about! The Narcissus suit also has full raytracing!



(see how the RTX version actually reflects the NPCs)

I doubt this was intentional, cool your jets a minute.

While it does fit the Gold theme of Greed, I don’t think they would have changed/replaced it without telling us in the Notes.
Probably just some crossed wires with another item. Like someone else said, this could be Ambrose related, but accidentally got put into the wrong file.

This was a mistake. The Iconoclast is a Y2 version :slight_smile:

@Clemens_IOI I just want to point out a typo in the Ducky Gun description. Its is the correct way of spelling the possessive, while it’s is a contraction for it is.

There’s also an argument to be made that the apostrophe in 1970’s is not necessary. I subscribe to the convention that it’s not, but it’s so common that its inclusion is understandable.

One thing to note… I have it so H3 launches via Steam (it is the Epic version), but now Steam captures the screenshots when I press F12. :hushed: It never did that before today’s update.

I like the Ducky Gun with its quacks, hopefully in the next patch the ICA19 F/A Stealth “Ducky” Edition and the Hackl Sniper Rifle Covert “Ducky” Edition can have their firing audio changed as well

my only complaint is that it does not make a duck sound when trying to fire it while empty :frowning:

Clearly that’s because the bullets are really extra-tiny rubber rucks fired at Mach 1 speed. That’s where the Quack sound is coming from.

Hey @Clemens_IOI, just had a look at one of my contracts which has “W” as a target… well was a target as it is now named Monica Ansdal. The contract in question is Dancing was a Crime. The issue is that the briefing with my contract still mentions “W”. Now you see why I point it out. The briefing is now redundant. I don’t mind the new look of the NPC, but I would like “W” to be used as a nickname for Monica Ansdal… Monica “W” Ansdal fits perfectly.

Otherwise it’ll just be a pain for me to remake this contract again just to change the briefing. I may submit this contract in a future Community Featured Contract if it’s a general one or a theme that fits. It’s fairly challenging but not on the most ridiculous levels as my featured contract The Night The Duck Cried. And when I’m referring ridiculous, I mean the large amount of complications and required exit.

Fear not. We can change the briefing if it gets featured :slight_smile:

So, are you telling me we can enjoy those lovely “quacks” only for those 5 misere bullets?

Wow.

Just wow.

A bit off topic but how is this Codename 47 HD Remaster going? :eyes:

What resolution are you running? 30 fps with 2080 seems super low.

I’ve got a 2080 Ti and I run at a buttery-smooth 60 FPS at 4k / all settings Ultra with RTR turned off (might be higher than 60 FPS, but my PC is in the living room connected to the TV and that only has a 60 Hz refresh rate, so any excess FPS I get aren’t important).

Just turned on RTR whilst leaving all other settings unchanged, and the game became a Wallace & Gromit stop-motion film! :joy:
