HITMAN 3 - Bug Report Thread

In bangkok boats flicker on screen nonstop almost like they’re having a seizure very distracting lol.

Platform: PC (Epic, digital)

Location: Haven Island

Frequency: Every time

Description: Another case of NPCs being able to see you through walls. This one is in the server room area with the technician, cabinet, shovel, and gas valve (you enter here using the keycard-protected door next to the bar). If you commit any illegal action, someone (based on the 2nd screenshot I managed to take, it seems to be one of the guards on the upper floors; EDIT: apparently it´s Williams?) in the area will notice you, despite the room being completely isolated.

This is likely exacerbated by the level´s extended viewcones (yes, I would absolutely like those to be removed so that the level is consistent with the others in this regard).

Not sure if the issue exists elsewhere in the level. Will perhaps see upon future playthroughs.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Enter the room in question.
  2. KO the technician and drag his body (or hide it, change clothes, etc… simply holding a gun would likely also work). If the guard (Williams?) is looking in your direction, you will get spotted.


Edit:
There is also a minor graphical bug with the gas mask disguise. Part of the goggles belt is clipping through the hood.

Striker is unavailable in the concealed weapon selection menu.

Sieger Ghost is unavailable for every mission.

It’s actually Tyson Williams with the all-seeing eyes. Once he spots you, he shares his all-seeing vision with the nearby NPCs and all goes to shit. 3 years later, this level is still broken af.

Ah ok, that would explain the instant target lockdown. I thought it might be him, but by the time I found out I got “spotted” from above, the guard with the exclamation mark looking somewhat in my direction seemed like the main culprit. I never had this issue in H2 though…

Yeah it wasn’t this bad in Hitman 2, but NPCs could still see through walls. Especially when you are hiding in the master bedroom in the villa.

Seems you’ve replaced the minor bugs with a lot more major and unforgiving ones…

Today I was at 15/17 for the silent assassin suit only last challenge, upon completing 16/17 I was awarded with a challenge reset to 1/17. There isn’t even enough locations left to start again as I have already achieved SA/SO on over 80% of them.

This is a pretty shattering outcome, hopefully you can patch this and return our progress to what has been earned. I also hope this doesn’t occur to many others.

I don´t have H2 installed anymore to check if it was a thing there as well, but I´m pretty sure I shouldn´t have to undergo a frisk when dressed as one of Cassidy´s men to enter his house? (PC)


Also, this particular lady in Sapienza prefers to be on top (of the railing) way too often…

Location: Mostly in Chongqing’s Pride (Deadly Sins) contract, but in many others also.

Description: When trying to open the Pride Deadly Sin contract, immediately a message saying “An error occurred loading the menu. Try again and if the problem persist, please contact Hitman Support Center”, is posted, and I can put “try again” many times as possible, and the message continues to appear. This happens to me also with many other contracts.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Start the game
  2. Load the Chongqing’s Pride (Deadly Sins) mission
  3. Message shown

Frequency: Lots of times, since the last update was installed, agreed on May 10th, 2021.

Description: Elusive target “Iconoclast” wont drink the malbec after asking for a glass, you can serve her bodyguard but there is never an option to serve her, even though she asks for a glass

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Start the Iconoclast Elusive Target
  2. Find the malbec and bring it to the serving table dressed as the waiter
  3. Place the malbec on the table and wait for the target to arrive

‘Body is too similar to another post’ OK, now that I’ve gotten past that filter;

Platform: PC
Description: Game hangs and crashes at random. It will freeze for about 4 seconds before closing itself. This is entirely to do with the new patch. I have over 2,000 hours across the WoA trilogy, 0 crashes. Now I get 3+ every day.
Steps to reproduce: Literally do nothing and it will crash. Any map, any season it happens. It can happen within 10 minutes, 1 hour, or maybe 2 hours. But sometimes I can just be standing around in game and it hangs.

Platform - Xbox One X

Location - Chongqing and Romania

Description - When Rendering Quality is set to High Framerate (since the Season of Pride update), you can see faint raindrops falling indoors on the top floor of the Block in Chongqing. Romania has a similar issue where you see snow flying through every indoor area.

Steps to reproduce - Just have Rendering Quality set to High Framerate (unlocked framerate also)

Frequency - Always happening

Video examples:

Platform: Xbox

Location: All (The Classics Challenges)

Description: since the 10th May patch, progress on The Classics has reset to 1/17, and does not increase even when doing further missions.

Steps to reproduce:

Install most recent update
Start the game
Play any mission and complete a “The Classics” challenge.
Progress stays at 1/17.

Frequency: constant since patch.

Thanks.

Mendoza (though could also happen in other locations as well in the same situation)

Bug seems to be self-explanatory. 47 doesn’t get spotted.

Video also shows another bug on PS5 atm - when the game autosaves, the saving message in the bottom right corner doesn’t disappear. Ever.

I noticed the saving icon not disappearing as well on certain maps on PS5. It only happens when I launch a level though, then it’s there and won’t dismiss itself. However, entering the pause menu makes it go away. After that the game auto saves normally. Maybe that’s a workaround for now.

**Platform: PC (digital on epic games)

Location: Menu (after Chomping and Paris)

Description : My progress in all classic achievments (Silent Assasine & Suit only, Silent Assasine, Sniper Assasine) got reduced to 1 also I was close to getting the 12x in every one of them. I still have the 5x achievments. On every map where i did the single classic achiement it is still there. But it won´t count to the 12x and 17x achiements.

It started only wtih the Sniper Assasine. So I tried to finish a map, where I already unlocked the single Sniper Assasin and tried it again. The result is that all classics are now at 1 and Sniper Assasine did not change to 2.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Play Chongping.
  2. Finish both targets with “the Majestic” in one shot
  3. Get the single achievments “Suit only” and “Sniper Assasine”.
  4. Now the number in Sniper Assasine x12 and x17 is at 1. Every Sniper Assasine achievment you already unlock is still there.
  5. Play Paris. Start as Crew member. Place a “Sieger 300 tactical” in the schedd.
  6. Take the firework remote and the Sieger ad climb to the tower.
  7. Trigger the fire work. Kill the targets with the sniper and escape without getting caught.
  8. Now every other x12 and x17 achievment is at 1.

Sry, as new user i can only upload one pic.
