HITMAN 3 - Bug Report Thread

Platform: PC, Steam, Digital

Location: Bangkok (The Warlord)

Description: The lower-ranked soldiers added in this Elusive Target all use the voice variation CIVMALE01. This results in them not having proper guard lines, most notably resulting in the sentries outside the suite failing to properly inform Agent 47 if he is allowed in the suite or not. Note that the higher-ranked red beret soldiers use proper bodyguard voices and are not affected by this bug. This happens because SOLDIER01-03 are not set to load in the level’s sound definitions, but are set to be used by the soldiers, causing them to default to CIVMALE01. Changing the lower-ranked soldiers to use BDYGRD01-04 like the red beret soldiers or loading SOLDIER01-04 in the sound definitions should make them speak as expected.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Start in 47’s suite and climb the nearby stairs to the suite. (not required, just faster)
  2. While dressed in 47’s suit, approach the guards outside the suite.
  3. One guard will silently move his mouth, followed by the second agreeing with what he ‘said’.
  4. Entering the suite at this point will be considered trespassing. This is intended behavior, but is not adequately communicated to the player due to this bug.
  • Under normal circumstances one sentried guard will tell 47 to leave (sentry_denydsg), and the other will respond to the first (trspss_rsp). CIVMALE01 only possesses the ‘trspss_rsp’ line (usually unused for civilians) resulting in the first soldier’s line being silent.

Frequency: Every time.

With you adding this locker by the railing you can actually see inside the locker by vaulting into it. Luckily players csn vault back out if they look at the railing once more.

No matter how many times I play the game, the result time display in Sniper Assassin mode is showing 0 seconds.
Please check if this is a glitch.

  1. Clear the game.
  2. Result display is wrong.

I’m having an issue with playing on an 5K display. If scale the resolution to anything less than 5K the game will stutter so bad its unplayable. But if I put it back to 5k. It’s fine. The problem is that with another game I can’t use 5K resolution and have to scale down for it to work. So in order to play both games I need to always change my display resolution between native 5k (for Hitman 3) and 2K scaled resolution to play the other game. Is there something I’m missing here to make Hitman 3 work on a scaled down resolution on a 5K display?

Platform: PC

Description : Game does not run smooth as it used to. Unplayable now with constant stuttering if I change the native 5K display to a scaled down resolution.

Additional info:
-Nvidia drivers and Windows 10 updated
-Hitman graphics settings set to default
-GTX 1080 / Intel i7-6700K
-Steam version
-No issues in other games (Halo Infinite, Cyberpunk 2077)

Steps to reproduce: Launching the game

Frequency : Always

UPDATE: This seems to happen because the lower-ranking soldiers are set to use the SOLDIER01-03 voice variations, but isn’t present in the bloodymary SDEF. Changing the lower-ranked soldiers to use BDYGRD01-04 like the red beret soldiers does make them speak as expected. I haven’t tested adding the soldiers to the SDEF, but similar experiments suggest it should work as well.

I’ve also updated my original bug report post with this information, but I wanted to highlight it here just in case it got missed.

Description: Santa’s Workshop Strike Featured contract used mods to create and is impossible to SASO without missing objectives

Steps to reproduce:

Start the game
Load the Santa’s Workshop strike featured contract
Click on each target to see the outfit the creator used.
Realize that you can’t play as Diana on any mission
Realize you can’t get Bartoli 75s without changing outfits, because the only way to get Bartoli 75s is to use a Mercenary blend spot, but the contract reauires “suit” to be worn
Frequency: Its in the contract, it will be every time you load it

Image of outfit(all outfits are modded but new users couldn’t possibly know that so here is my allowed single image)

This isn’t a bug, so please don’t report it to the bug thread.

Firstly, it is possible to SA, just not SO. You need to disguise yourself as a mercenary or head of security and blend in at a weapon crafting station with two other mercenaries standing over it, in a locker room by the secret tunnel in the barrel room. 47 will say something, then it’ll spawn in.

You can change disguises in this contract, so just make sure to change back to your suit when you’ve got the pistol.
Second of all, the suit picture doesn’t matter; just wear any suit. Hope this helps.

So where do we report featured contracts? There is no in game report option. The forums are unclear about where to post about them

There are dedicated posts for each batch of featured contracts. For this one, go here: Urben’s Winter Madness #2.

All targets on the top level of the winery go to a railing. When I was going through the map creating this contract, I don’t recall any potential targets going to the bathroom as I was trying to determine who I wanted to be targets and see their paths if poisoned (the closest I got was the one target on the stairway).

As for the waste basket, I will assume you poisoned him above the wine vats. I cannot recall where he went, but I do remember towards the stairs he will either go to the locations you have shown, depending where on the stairs he was at the time of poisoning.

While IOI adjusted the parameters for wastebasket vs toilet priority a while back when they are in close proximity, this isn’t necessarily the case as the ledge or wastebasket is far closer than the washroom toilets.

While I have appreciated your reports and videos shown bugs, some I have taken as knit-picking than an actual bug, as in the case here.

I’m not sure if this has been reported, but this has been an issue since I preordered the game. I cannot play hitman 3 or any (world of assassination) levels offline. My xbox (series X) states that I don’t own the game. This is not an issue with the other two previous games. Please acknowledge this and help me/us resolve this.

I also have this problem, however i do have a fix.
You need to connect to the Hitman servers when it loadd you into the game, then when it disconnects again you will still have all the maps, that’s the only way i know.

I understand, however if I hypothetically don’t pay my internet bill; I should still be able to play the bare bones game offline.

Fair enough, mate. It is a huge pain a single player game needs leaderboards (that dont really matter imo) and stupid forced internet connection.

I can hardly pay for mine, i wish you luck though. :four_leaf_clover:
