Church Staff right below the church bells cannot be subdue in ”The Author”.
If you attack it, it will always be a punching attack.

  2. Go under the church bell.
  3. The “Subdue” command does not appear when standing behind a church staff member at that location.
  4. Any attack on him would surely knock him down with a punch.

If you kill or KO Akka or Orson Mills - they’ll drop the Uplink Access Cards that you can pick up to complete the secondary objective. However, if you pause the game and view the full map, these are marked as the “Backup Data Disk”.

I assume this is a holdover from when the objective was cloned from the New York Data Core objective. These should be marked on the map as “Uplink Access Card”.

Has IO fixed the issue where the Procurers got stuck in one spot without continuing their dialogue?

PC/Epic. Ambrose Island. While trying to get the oil can today I encountered what had to be a bug… Although I was compromised, I climbed up next to the guarded gate going into the Pirate area. I did not get spotted by the cameras since I shot them. I then go to ‘lay low’ in the foliage near the cells where Mr. Smith is held. Without anyone seeing me go to that spot, I became compromised by more guards and they just seem to know where I already was.

So it seems like the enforcers can home in on you even if they didn’t see you go to whatever hiding spot.

Someone may have already reported this, but I’ll report it anyway.
For some reason, the piano lid Knockout method doesn’t work on the second or subsequent players.

Reproduction procedure:

  1. Use the noise of the piano lid to distract an NPC.
  2. KO an NPC with the piano lid.
  3. Hide the unconscious NPC and use the noise of the piano lid to distract another NPC again.
  4. When trying to KO the piano lid NPC, for some reason it is not possible to KO the second NPC onwards.

In HITMAN 3 (WoA), the Silent Assassin is kept even if the priest faints when he sees 47 awakened in morgue.
By the way, in HITMAN 2, the “silent assassin” is lost.
Personally, the HITMAN3 specifications look more like the correct specifications.

Reproduction procedure:

  1. sleep in morgue using blending and wait for priest to come.
  2. when the priest visits the morgue, get up.
  3. the priest is startled and faints, and one witness is added, but you keep the “Silent Assassin”.

Occurrence frequency:
Always.

Mission: Freedom Fighters (Master difficulty)

On master difficulty, destroying a camera (an additional one added with the difficulty) doesn’t award any XP point.

This is linked to a wider bug where being recorded by one of the additional master mode cameras doesn’t change the green guns to yellow. The cameras aren’t linked to the evidence recorder, so there’s nothing to destroy effectively.

There’s also some cameras like this in New York too iirc.

Contents:
A water bottle in the front yard of a hotel in Bangkok can hold two bottles of poison.
This water bottle, which Jackie Carrington will eventually drink from, may drink the first bottle of poison, but not the second.
This is probably due to the fact that the bottle is double-layered.
This phenomenon had previously occurred in a water bottle in the backyard of the hotel.
This phenomenon would also affect freelancer mode.

Reproduction procedure:

  1. Put poison into the bottle placed on the hotel front yard.
  2. For some reason, the bottle can be poisoned again, so poison the bottle again.
  3. Wait for Jackie Carrington to Drink from the Bottle.
  4. She only ingests one of the poisons.

Occurrence frequency:
Always.

Iterating on my post here, but I’ve found out that this visual bug doesn’t apply only to that Congressman NPC, it seems it’s more like the suit itself that causes problems, I have replayed the tutorial missions, and saw this:

Lots of of different NPCs wearing that same suit with clipping/lightning issue.

This is likely the intended behavior of the new suit unlock.

Recurrence: always

The cell can be picked in dartmoor though.

Description: Playing on PS4, and Freelancer has been randomly crashing on me regularly. It got worse 2 weeks ago now; game crashed, and PS4 notice said the data was corrupted and I had to delete the game and reinstall. So a day later after that was done, I got back in and it crashed again, and gave me the same direction.
I’ve been playing Hitman for over 20 years now but I’m ready to just give up.
Any thoughts and/or suggestions would be appreciated.
Steps to reproduce: Uninstalled and reinstalled, same result.
