**Platform:** PC Digital **Location:** Paris (Notable on other locations) **Description:** NPC pop in here is really bad. If done for optimization purposes on consoles I can understand, but the draw distance, especially on PC here seems way too close to the player. Steps to reproduce: 1. Start the game 2. Start the Paris mission anywhere close to bar. 3. Walk around the bar as shown in video. **Frequency:** Always **Attachment:** I provided a video [![](https://hitmanforum-v6-s3-uploads.s3.dualstack.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/original/3X/5/2/522ef358468248c994a04962894451eae7cfe54d.jpeg "Hitman 3 NPC Draw Distance") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lvp-bVOVRIU) ---

> [@Shade](#): > > Also that event could be triggered even I’ve killed Rico (opportunity should be missed) I always found it made sense as Andrea hasn’t got a clue that Rico has just passed away yet (nor have anyone else) so surly the celebration would continue until Rico is set to be on stage, then Andrea or something would say the shows over. ---

Oh, what platform are you on then? At least that is being honest if the activity is greyed out. On my Xbox edition it keeps giving you the score amounts! But my main concern was about the Freelance Mode coming up. We won’t want 150 xp points greyed out, now do we? 😜 ---

No, you actually shouldn’t. There are **two variations** - blend in which hide you from enforcers, and lean on/sit down, which does not hide you from them. This one has purely cosmetic purposes. But Santa Fortuna seems to be really buggy. First that cloth on statue, then band member is missing (quite literally). ---

Platform: Steam Location: All Description: 47 has a specific walking animation when he holds a pistol, where he holds the gun at an angle. This animation changes back to the default walk animation after a certain period of time (i.e. the game thinks 47 is no longer holding a gun).

PS5 Every location Reporting this once again (I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve done this by now). Since the May 2021 patch, the saving icon will more often than not get stuck on the screen and will never disappear until the player either pauses the game or completes the mission. This happens most regularly when the game (for some reason) tries to save something as soon as you load into the mission and the opening cutscene starts playing. I know I probably shouldn’t, but I’m tagging @Travis_IOI and @Clemens_IOI because this has plagued the game for 18 months and nothing seems to be happening. ---

Platform: PS5 digital Location: Dubai, The Ascensionist Description: At the added frisk point at the beginning of the level, the far right guard won’t let 47 pass after he frisks him and will insist on frisking him a second time, after which he will finally let 47 through.
