No. You don’t. Placing the canister and shooting that classified it as an explosion kill. As for it not igniting, I get it to ignite with a single bullet shot about half the time. It is, as I stated, inconsistent.
It’s all about flpor clipping for stuff like that (notable places where it’s really bad is like the Hokkaido snow by the garage area) so Persia’s method above is more consistent.
Can someone test this for me? Seems like a dud move by IOI
since Freelancer, game crashes randomly. Any idea when it will be fixed?
Platform: PC Epic
Location: Any
Steps to replicate: Go into a cabinet while in combat mode and ensure no one sees you enter. In some rare occasions all the guards will know you are in there for no apparent reason, but will not shoot at all.
You could be in there for hours and they will just run around and aim at you.
They definitely didn’t see me go in since I used instinct.
If they actually saw me go in they would start shooting in seconds.
This is a new combat system bug, it never happened a few patches ago ()maybe a year ago?).
It seems the guard system artificially rely on your XYZ position too much, aiming through solid walls etc…

I got a leader on New York with a “foodie” tell so figured it’d be a great time to get a natural poison kill seeing there’s a challenge to get 10.
I identified the target, found where they ate from (a white square on a table in the 1st floor waiting area), i found some natural poison in a crate, I cleared the waiting area (via use of the seiker & emetic grenades) & poisoned the food (white square)
I then followed the target around and watched them eat from that spot (now emitting red smoke, the telltale sign of a lethal poison waiting to be eaten) no less than 3 times and nothing happened
i then decided to lure them into the bathroom and strangled them seeing they were wearing a necklace which contributed towards a different challenge
TL;DR : i used a lethal flower poison found in a crate to poison my targets food supply and it didn’t kill them

Frequency : 60% of the time the character choses which bathroom to puke in.
I poisoned the fish with rat poison. Ken Morgan eats it and runs off to puke. He chooses one
of two toilets. If he choses the 2nd toilet he’s easily killed by drowning or whatever; however if
he goes into the 1st toilet another NPC barges in and is undeterred (I tried to block him to
stand over Ken while he is puking and he “pees” right over him.
The result is in this screenshot:
THIS IS NOT a mock up or a meme. This is a screenshot from the game.
This has a side effect of preventing my kililng Ken Morgan via drowning. I tried to grab Morgan while he was intertwined. The game chose the other NPC to drown while Ken Morgan is screaming for help having immediately recovered from his puking session. rolls eyes with sarcasm
The other NPC barging in obviously is not supposed to be doing that.
This bug is funny but game breaking or at least mission breaking.

When you are playing the location in Freelancer during a Territory Takedown and you cause Silvio to flee, the “target is escaping” thing will still show above the minimap - even though he isn’t a target. Probably the same for other maps that have targets that can flee in the main mission.

The only option is to quit.

Could probably happen anywhere where the terrain is poor.
Description.
Occasional suspects move momentarily to the meeting location.
Steps to recreate.
- obtain a pre-built cell phone for the meeting
- Use the cell phone in a secluded part of the terrain
- The suspect moves instantly to the meeting location and immediately returns to where he/she was.
- You will have visited the meeting location once, and then they will not come back again.
High frequency of recurrence. More likely to occur in areas with poor footing. Second time in Ambrose.

Alexa, who is supposed to be in her office, is looking at the first floor bathroom.
Steps to reproduce:
- Continue to perform suspicious behavior in the first floor restroom for mission start to 1.5 minutes.

- Alexa, who is supposed to be in the office, comes to the first floor restroom
- she looks like Tyson Williams.
Frequency:
Occurs occasionally.
Perhaps when she sits in her chair and presses her head against the cushion, she will surely realize what happened in the first floor bathroom.

I observed the same phenomenon in Santa Fortuna.
Apparently, it occurs when meetings are held in areas that are inaccessible to NPCs.

Tranquilizer gun does nothing to target.
I’ve had this happen several times in normal story mode this time though in Freelancer mode.
It doesn’t happen every time. Maybe 1 shot in 5 the tranq victim just doesn’t react at all.
This last time in Freelancer. I shot a courier at point blank range trying to covertly drop
him into a bush. The dart did nothing and he “spotted” the gun and runs off blowing my
-lack of- disguse. Since this was the syndicate leader, said leader ran away and it cost
me the campaign. Obviously this is a serious bug.
I am not sure it’s directly reproduciblle. There is a degree of randomness.
