HITMAN 3 - Bug Report Thread

Every single time this happens, I say to myself that I’ll report it, but I never do because I lack the evidence for it, but it just happened again, and it’s happened to me probably a dozen times, across platforms but mostly on PS4, and so here you have it:

Platform: PS4 mostly but it has happened on XBOX SS
Digital

Location: All

Description: The game will crash when I’m crouching around and I place an item on the ground.

Steps to reproduce: Random. I have noticed that when crouching around, often but not exclusively when i’m moving quickly, I place an item on the ground and the game crashes. It crashes instantly during/after the placement of the item (as in, the item appears on the ground, the sound briefly happens, the animation doesn’t finish, and the game crashes).

Any videos or images that will help explain the issue: I wish I could but this is a totally random occurence and I’m not filming ahead of time nor can I capture video on PS4 after a game has been exited.

Deleting saves doesn’t fix it for me, the crashing still occurs.

Platform: PC
Map: Untouchable
Issue: In Casual mode it is illegal for the Providence Office Guard to hold any weapons
Solution: This can be fixed by adding Keyword_Prof_Class_Guard_Heavy to the Bodyguard outfit in outfits_wolverine.brick

EDIT: Turns out I posted this last year, still not fixed evidently.

Dubai - The Ascensionist

After the first line in this particular exchange, the characters seemingly experience a Freaky Friday-type body swap.

Also in this same Elusive Target, if you KO Chuck (the guy she gives a tour to) - this triggers her escape, which in turn triggers the “Target is Escaping” appearing underneath the eliminate objective. The game grants 10XP for completing an objective when this “Target is Escaping” text appears. Presumably a hidden objective used to activate the escape “objective”.

In Chonqing map, there is a dramatic drop in frame rate in the outside rain on PS4. It appears that there is very little memory buffer, since I have had multiple games in a row, suddenly quit on me in Chonqing, at exactly the same point when I am in the rain, and at the supplier who is in the rain, when I am buy too many things from the supplier. It seems that the game crashes when I buy the third item from the supplier everytime.

Paris in Freelancer

When playing Paris in Freelancer, the indicator for the exit in the basement is incorrectly showing on the full map as being one floor above on Level 1 in the middle of The Grand Hall. It’s actually one floor below this.

This blend in spot that requires you to be a guard can be used when you’re not a guard.

Also, its likely not a bug but more of a suggestion: the Durian unlock should be moved to the poison category in the inventory. Seems better suited than melee.

You’ve removed the briefing video.

The Durian emits blue smoke when thrown/dropped, which violates the well established rule of “blue = sedative” and “green = emetic”.

The Mission Story won’t fail if you put the Master of Ceremonies into a crate/cupboard, when it should fail like it does if you kill him - since he can never come out once placed in there.

The map says that in the screenshot below that I should be directly facing a door, but I’m actually facing a wall. The door is further to 47’s left than the map indicates.

First, I found that I can now carry an axe in the pistol equipment section.
Secondly, I found that the mission introduction video in Paris became a text.And I checked, only the mission introduction in Paris has changed.

New patch, same bugs.

Platform: PS5
Digital + disc

Location: All Hitman 3 Locations

Description: “SAVING” is stuck on the screen on every Hitman 3 map. This is a PS5 exclusive bug that has been in the game for 3,5 years now and never been acknowledged. Never been mentioned in the known issues

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Start the game on PS5
  2. Load up any Hitman 3 mission
  3. Saving forever

Frequency: Always. Every time. Saving.

Why do you refuse to fix this bug? If you are incapable of fixing it, it would be far easier to just publicly come out and say it. Your communication with players is shocking

The game just won’t connect. I’ve switched drives, I have checked the firewall settings, I messed with in game settings, and yet… Nothing. My game will just forever say, “Cannot connect” and when I do—with fully working wifi no less—it just does the same thing over and over again. I have been pulling hair over this for half a year. Sometime in late 2023 or early 2024 the game updated and now I cannot access the full game and the content presented in updates due to this bumble shit glitch. I hate that this game and it’s content are tied to the worst, most dogshit server infrastructure known to man, and ioi keeps using the “Always Online” model as some sort of piracy measure, but it just screws me—who payed for the game, twice, once on PlayStation, and the second time when it released on steam—and I am constantly frustrated. Next game ioi does, I hope they don’t do “Always Online” because oh my god, I will have a stroke. Anyways, rant over.
The bug is just that the game cannot figure out how to connect to my connection, even though I am connected to the best connection in my place.

This is not a Bug but a translation error. The right Italian translation is “sopravviva”, not “sopravvivi”. I know that Italian is a difficult language. In a comic movie, a great actor said “Italian is a cursed language”.

Ok, this needs a hotfix, asap. How the hell did they manage that? :man_facepalming:
