Distractions inside the Dartmoor manor are still broken. NPCs are hearing things that they logically shouldn’t be.

Reward crate empty at campaign end
It was empty for the 2nd to last mission before the showdown at the end of the campaign and after
finishing the campaign too. My freelancer tools box is full and before this it kept only giving me
items I’d used in the mission just finished. So I used an EMP and it gave me an EMP.
Not sure’s linked to a particular map or campaign other than that this is the fourth campaign I’ve finished and total completion is now 30%.
This is why. This reward box only gives you Freelancer tools. When you have them all, it becomes empty until you lose an item or use it.
Not a bug.

You’ve just given me some puzzle contract ideas! 
OK. It’s not a bug. Then is just dumb.
So when was the game going to say “freelancer tools full?” and give something else?
It’s kinda dumb to open the crate after each mission and get nada. Just disable the
crate with a message.
if this is the bathroom i’m thinking of (with the 2 bodyguards outside and the hearse keys nearby) then it’s because of the open window to your left
EDIT. i replied to you before watching your video, the first instance i think is because of the open window but yeah can’t explain the other two
This type of thing happens in Bangkok too; NPCs on another floor hear / see something that guards right next to the sound don’t.
Shoot out the camera in the basement by the back entrance of the hotel.
1/3 or more of the time the NPC abov ewill hear it resulting in either “gunshot heard” or even the extreme “crime noticed” from that NPC, but… the two guards who patrol the hall on the other side of
the cam are oblivious. The first time this happened I got rushed by a whole slew of guards from the door…
I got away just in time as they all swarmed around the camera.
My favorite broken distraction though is when an NPC is right next to a sound, but the character across the room instead goes to it. This is most prevelent for things like explosive phones. Dropped one a a target’s feet. The target was untouched by the explosion though b/c a waitress is who picked it up.
Said waitress walked the whole room to get to the sound.
i’ve noticed various issues with the suspect camera such as it failing to show it was over a target.
When two suspects are close it will often disallow chooing of the right suspect to mark or mark the wrong one. When choosing prime suspect if you wish to undo this you must do two steps first unchoose prime suspect and then choose to mark them as a non-target. This is tedious and if the target moves out of range while marking them it will fail to allow any marking.
Add this to the zoom bug I posted about last week and NPCs seeing your camera out as a weapon… DUH!
I think allowing one to mark/unmark suspects via the minimap should be a thing for such an occasion when doing so with the camera is blocked.
Also happens in staff bathroom, which is annoying in Freelancer when you are trying to get bodyguard who secures camera recorder (but it allows you to shoot it without raising any suspicion).

Hitman 3: Chongquing map.
2nd level of the building where the two homeless are talking about the flyers.
I climbed the ladder to the 2nd level and tossed the fire extiguisher at the floor then shot it.
The guard on the street level below is also hit by the blast and knocked out.
I don’t know if this is a bug or not but it’s surely a minor glitch.
Reproducable:
It’s mostly consistent with where I tossed the fire extinguisher near the window.

Hokkaido in Freelancer mode
Chopper pilot knocked out in corner of the guard room below the helipad.
He fell into the gap between a reward crate and the desk and became inaccessible.
If you look closely he phased through the crate too. Probably contributing to the issue.
Here’s a video clip I made: Hitman 3: Knocked out chopper pilot stuck in corner inaccessible location - YouTube
He was shown as knocked out and luckily the roving guard and maintenance guy did not see him.
I tried to ‘encourage’ his body to move from the corner with the wrench a few times to no avail.
This has only happened once but I’ll be wary of knocking anyone out in that spot again.

Bangkok
NPCs get stuck in animation loop picking up dropped items.
Had this happen a few times now in Bangkok. I placed something on the floor and one of the NPCs
got stuck in an animation loop picking it up when it was in an inaccessible spot. In this instant case however I used an explosive phone on a target the courier was in the blast radius leaving behind his money. The NPCs in this clip is trying to pick up something dropped from either the courier or dead target. He was locked like this when I collected the courier loot and still like this when the mission was over so I took this short clip.
Reproducable:
It is not consistent but it’s happened more than once on this map.

The saving icon bug is something that happened on PS5 with a patch in mid-2021. Since then I’ve reported this bug so many times during so many different avenues and IO has seemingly decided to ignore every single thing I’ve sent their way.
I doubt they’ll ever fix this as a result.

Wow, that is a shame.
It’s very inconvenient for me to hide my equipment in the lower right corner.
I guess IO has lost interest in PS5…

The last patch finally fixed the “Dartmoor Drop” (as the October patch notes called it when it wasn’t actually fixed) outside Alexa’s office. The drop is also possible in the area outside Alexa’s bedroom.

If the alternative drop gets patched that last little bit of sanity I have for anything on Dartmoor’s upper floors will vanish, please let this one live!!!

Since the good one has already been patched I’d personally rather that one be patched too. It’d give me the push I need to actually learn how to get out of the mansion and past all the NPCs without cheesing. I should do it anyway really but it’s a little too hard to resist saving that time and effort. Feels like the existing ledge drop patches are a half measure that makes things more inconvenient without actually fixing the design flaw introduced by them.
