HITMAN 3 - Bug Report Thread

Just experienced this glitch which scared the bejeezus out of me!

When I came through this area again, it occurred again and I expected it.

Platform: PC (Epic Games)

Location: Dubai

Description: When a suitcase is placed on it’s side horizontally in the catwalk area of Dubai, it is completely covered by the floor, but still able to be picked up

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Start the game
  2. Load the Dubai mission with suitcase
  3. Go to the hallway southeast of the third floor Control Room leading to the stairs
  4. Place or throw suitcase into the area closest to the wall as you turn.

Frequency: Always

When loading any mission with Dubai, the loading bar will stop moving, and memory usage will go all the way to all available memory in the system after a minute. Verifying the integrity of the files does nothing:

Platform: PS5 Digital.

Location: Freelancer on Dartmoor, though it’s hard to tell if location matters for this.

Description: I’m in a Showdown, and Tattoos for a Suspect (who was the Leader) were not properly displaying. It seemed to depend on what position the arm was in relation to me. It’s hard to describe. It was like the tattoo was clipping into the arm itself.

Frequency: I’ve had good luck with tells/looks until this instance, so this was the first time I’ve personally had this issue. I also force quit the game and relaunched into Freelancer to ensure it wasn’t a fluke.

Screenshots

This was the Suspect in question.

There is a rose tattoo on her right arm that is clipping or just not layered properly.

After confirming she was the Leader, I was able to position her arm so that the tattoo appeared in order to get this clearer shot of it.

OK maybe someone already noticed, but this happened to me only once - after starting Freelancer mode, agent 47 for some reason spawns in the command center room, appears to be drinking wine (might be related to certain decoration asset used in kitchen, I suppose…?):

After pressing space, he glitched out a bit and returned back to normal. Seems that some random things he does around the house need some checkup.

Game version: Latest Epic game version as of 20th Feb.

The target circled is hiding behind an exit icon. you can see a few pixels of red.
Can we make the exit icon more transparent so we can see the red target easier?
Or perhaps move the red target in front of all exit icons.

Had this interesting suspect…who, naturally, turned out to be the Leader.

When I restarted, she did it again. She starts in the garden, walks out to the yoga platform and it seems like her smoking animation followed by her sneezing/allergy animation kind of pushes her off the platform and out into midair, where she just…vibrates like that. :laughing:

I had a smoker/sneezer in Haven who did the same weird thing! :grin:

PC
Dubai Map
Edge of Your Seat ‘Featured’ contract F7SC#6
The first target I broke their neck and got the melee in green.
Used a letter opener as a thrown kill on the 2nd target.
It showed “melee kill”, but the optional melee kill goal is shown with an X meaning
it was not complete. This has to be a bug; it’s only acknowleding one type of melee kill.
If this is as intended then that should be bettere explained.

Platform PC
Location Dubai
Description:
Featured Contract Edge of Your Seat stylized as F7SC#6
The contract has as optional to use melee kills. While it shows a pop up acknowleding the kill type
the condition shows it’s not met. I made a clip. First kill was with a letter opener from behind and it
did give correct credit, but the 2nd kill was with a fibre wire and it shows optional condition not met.
I’m not sure if this is isolated to the contract or endemic to the map.

It’s always been like that, it says melee kill, not throw weapon, i personally dislike both but it doesn’t change the fact

I don’t think you can get silent assassin (5 stars) unless you do these all correct

That’s because the fiber wire isn’t clased as a melee, this bugs me to death (exuse the pun) because it awards melee kill XP.

Contracts mode in general on any map

It is in Freelancer, btw. I was hesitant to try, but it worked for my epic lethal melee objective.

This is a game breaking bug. I just did all of the kills using only broken necks and STILL did not get melee kill credit. If breaking their necks is NOT melee then WHAT is?!

Freelancer Mode Bug Report

PS4

Colorado

Colorado is terrible. A body was found and they have been searching for me non-stop for 36+ minutes. I’ve been hiding in a closet the entire time.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Load into Colorado.
  2. Kill someone without being seen using any method you choose.
  3. Hide in a closet/crate.
  4. Have body be found.
  5. Go make dinner.
  6. Eat.
  7. Read a book. I suggest War and Peace.
  8. Get very bored and post the problem on HITMAN Forums.
  9. Learn a new language.
  10. Cry, since it’s now been 3 days.

Don’t even get me started on the ‘Sniper Triangulation Powers’ guards have. I will kill you. I am a trained HITMAN now…

Neck snaps are defined as “unarmed”. I agree that it should be melee as well, but at least you can smuggle in many different sharp items with you for melee kills. If not, there’s always the knives in the kitchens.

Well that is some of the DUMBEST stuff I’ve seen in this game. “Melee” MEANS “hand-to-hand combat”. For a neck break to not be melee is worst than dumb. It violates the very meaning of the word. That’s even dumber than the flash bang mechanics.
