Suspects can still escape via destroyed exits - ie the gondola. Even if they’re destroyed when they’re still en route to them.

The Art Lovers Feature Contract cannot be completed. Exits don’t appear after the appropriate targets are eliminated.

They fixed this. Wrong twin still a no-go but eliminating the right twin along with the other two targets allows exits to appear.

quest 3 and quest pro bug !

Completing the Featured Contracts on Holiday Hoarders and Hokkaido Snow Festival doesn’t count them toward the Featured Contracts - Track 1 challenges. Though there’s only one on each mission now, this will presumably also apply to all future FCs on these missions.

Any NPC using this eating act Act_MR_Sit_Chair_Table_EatMeal_Enter_S_L, allows you to poison their food while they’re eating it. Until you bump them and they reset, then you can’t poison the food while they’re eating it.

Same seems to apply to s03_act_mr_sit_chair_table_eatmeal_enter_b_l

Very silly that you can dress as a waiter and poison someone’s food while it’s in their mouth :face_with_raised_eyebrow:

As metal worker, in Ambrose Island, left area and wherever I go I had a long brown rope tied to my hand carrying whatever I had in my hand (crowbar?), connecting Agent47 to the starting point. Happened once. I remember this happening once in a mission in Hitman2016 (PS5)

Isn’t it normal behaviour due to undercover agents (or guards or whatever) wearing garbage man and gardener disguises?
“Normal” disguise and “undercover agent” dusguise always counted as two different outfits

This is correct. You’ll also notice that wearing the “normal” garbage man disguise you’re trespassing in that basement, but not if you wear the undercover guard garbage man disguise. (It’s a bit disappointing, even if it makes sense, that you’re not allowed to carry weapons in the undercover version.)

Description: The “Another for Good Measure” kill (Akka blowing herself up after kicking Crest off the tower) can no longer be done without a non-target kill.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Sabotage the propane tank on the tower
  2. Give the picture of Lance Hsu to Farah
  3. Wait a while for the meeting to play out, preferably where you can see the top of the tower
  4. When Akka kicks Crest off the tower, he drops his gun on the ledge.
  5. Either one of the nearby guards will see it and move to collect it, or Akka will see it herself and tell one of the guards to do so.
  6. Either way, she then smokes and the guard still picking up the gun is killed as well.

This didn’t used to happen, although I don’t know if the dropped gun was ignored or if it fell out of bounds so the NPCs didn’t try to collect it or what. It used to be part of one of my favorite SASO no-KO runs.

Frequency: Always EDIT 2024-02-29: Only sometimes, it seems. I had it work twice recently, the gun still dropped but everyone didn’t see it. In between those two runs I had a run where Akka saw it and got a guard killed. :person_shrugging:

Description: 11th agent is a non-target kill

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Use the Bus Stop start so Price shows up.
  2. KO at least two agents, and kill the rest (possibly KOing more so you don’t have to deal with catching them escaping).
  3. Kill the KOed agents individually. The last will be counted as a non-target kill.

If you instead kill the 10th and 11th at the same time, e.g. with a propane explosion, it does count both as target kills.

I’ve tried this with Thames, Davenport, and either Rhodes or Tremaine (I forget which) as the final kill, so it doesn’t seem specific to one particular agent.

Sniper Assassin Mode: Siberia trophy

Description:
The “Capital Punishment” trophy for completing all Siberia challenges was glitched when I transfered progress from Hitman 2.

I completed all of the Siberia challenges and but not all of the Hantu Port challenges in Hitman 2. After transfering my progress from Hitman 2 to Hitman 3, the correct trophies did not unlock.

I did not receive the “Capital Punishment” trophy even though I had completed all of the Siberia challenges, and instead I incorrectly received the “Pure Poetry” trophy even though I still had many remaining Hantu Port challenges to complete.

I’ve since completed the all remaining Hantu Port challenges in Hitman 3, and there is no way for me to earn the “Capital Punishment” trophy since all of the Siberia challenges have already been completed.

“Capital Punishment” is the last trophy I need to complete to get all the trophies.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Complete all challenges for Siberia in Hitman 2.
  2. Complete allmost but not all challenges for Hantu Port in Hitman 2.
  3. Import progress from Hitman 2 to Hitman 3.
  4. Launch Hitman 3.
  5. Note that the “Capital Punishment” achievement was NOT unlocked even though all challenges in Siberia have been completed.
  6. Note that the “Pure Poetry” achievement was unlocked even though all challenges in Hantu Port have NOT been completed.

Frequency:
Happened after transfering Hitman 2 progress into Hitman 3.

Now that the timed Prestige Objectives have been modified so that you don’t have to finish the mission within the time limit, you only need to eliminate all the targets within the time limit, the objective descriptions are now incorrect for all the timed Prestige Objectives. They still state the mission must be completed within the time limit.

But wait! There’s more!

Elusive Target Arcade

On The Codices ETA, the complication “No Civilian Casualties” still says that the mission will fail if any civilians are killed - but this is no longer correct as this contract was released before the Arcade complications became optional. This should be updated as the other complications have previously been (they were changed to replace the words “the mission” with “this complication”).

The Revolutionary ET Mission

When playing The Revolutionary, sometimes there are significant frame drops to the point of the game freezing for about half a second, especially around the town area. It seems like this is related to when the target is broadcasting his propaganda to the various TVs on the level. This applies both to the normal ET mission and to the mission in the ET Arcade.

There aren’t frame drops like this on the Three-Headed Serpent mission or when going to Santa Fortuna in Freelancer

Hi, sorry for the (incredibly) late response. I reached out to IOI’s Player Support through Zendesk and they said they would “look into it”. The issues still persist to this day and I have quite frankly given up on playing the game on Switch, despite me not wanting to give up my save file with 400 hours of progress.

As far as I know, it does not count Elusive Targets as failure if the game freezes and you have to reset the software, only if you actually die or meet some specific failing condition of the mission. Also I just uploaded my video to YouTube and put a link in the comment, that seemed to convert it to video.

And yeah, I really don’t know how or when this will be fixed, since as you can tell, it’s been months now. I’m glad to see others have the same issue so they hopefully take it seriously, but I’m afraid we’ll have to wait for the next big update to update the cloud version of the game. :frowning:
