Platform:
PS5 Digital

Location:
Colorado watertower

Description:
The briefcase placed in the water tower in Colorado is difficult to remove the contents from.
There is a mysterious invisible step, and the item cannot be removed unless you stand on the step.
To put away the item, you need to stand on the invisible step.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Place an item on the water tower in Colorado and start the mission.
2. When you approach the briefcase to remove the item, the command to remove it does not appear.
3. If you stand on the invisible step, you will be able to remove the item.
4. The same happens when you put away inside the briefcase.

Frequency:
every time.

Description:
I recently posted about the briefcases in the Agency Pickup that I was unable to retrieve.
I have since investigated the problem and have confirmed that the briefcases in the following locations cannot be retrieved.

Paris / Logistics Trailer,Empty Atic Room
Sapienza / Cafe Basement
Marrakesh / Lamp Shop Alley,Old Headmaster’s Terrace
Colorado / Water Tower,Red Barn
Hokkaido / Moutain Path, Garage
Hawkes’s Bay / Beach Shack
Miami / Parkside Food Stands
Santa Fortuna / Village Construction Building, Eine Cellar
Mumbai / Construction Site, Rooftop North, Train Tracks, Mubai Laundry, The Hill, Carpark,
Whittleton creek / Park Shed, Boat Cradle,
Amblose Island / Boat Cradle, Colonial Ruins
Isle of Sgail / Cistern
New York / Exexutive Floor, Vault’s Loading Bay
Dubai / Penthouse Supply Room, Maintenancr Room, Art Backstage Balcony, Penthouse Ventilation Area
Dartmoor / Bathroom, Graveyard, Hallway
Barlin / Entrance staff Room, SkyLight Access, Overpass,
Chongqing / Arcade, Apartment
Mendoza / Barrel Room, Villa Attic

Upon investigation, I found that the briefcase has the concept of a front and back, and that the contents cannot be removed from the briefcase when it is turned to the back side.
The Villa Attic in Mendoza is the easiest to understand.
And all briefcases that were in areas where they could not be retrieved were placed so that the back side could be seen, which may have made them unretrievable.

Steps to reproduce:

1. bring the item to agency pickup.
2. some briefcases are not easy to remove.
3. It is one more step, but once the briefcase is picked up, it can be retrieved.

Frequency:
Always.

The Escalation tile on the live tab is bugged where it doesn’t show all available escalations. It only shows seven of the 75 escalations available in the game. It shows The Haliwell Fable, The Berlin Egg Hunt, The Jinzhen Incident, The Satu Mare Delirium, The Greed Enumeration, The Lesley Celebration, and The Proloff Parable. Once those seven escalations are completed, the escalation tile simply shows " go to game modes" instead of suggesting any of the other uncompleted escalations for a player.

The ET Arcade tile works fine at showing every one of the uncompleted ET Arcade contracts, the Featured Contracts tile properly shows all of the uncompleted Featured Contracts in the game, but the Escalation tile is bugged. The tile should display all 75 escalations currently available across all of the locations, especially since everything is bundled together as the World of Assassination.

Just a quick note on my previous post. Upon further playthroughs, the crate lid issue affects all of these specific concrete crates on Isle of Sgail.

Summary

It only affects these style of crates, all the others work normally and its only ps5… they’re fine on ps4.

(I don’t think they have these crates anywhere else but Sgail, but if anyone knows of other locations please add to the list, they’re likely broken too.)

yea they did this intentionally when the tab was introduced i think to funnel people to just the 7ds stuff but now they really should put it all back in

Platform: PS5

There are several missing sound effects on Freelancer, which were present in the PS5 version in earlier updates and still play fine on the Steam version.

The sound effect for collecting Merces does not seem to play at all. It is silent in all circumstances: when collecting Merces from a safe, collecting Merces found in a small chest, collecting Merces present within the levels such as those in New York’s vault and deposit boxes, and when receiving Merces paid out when you return to the safehouse from the previous mission.

Purchasing items from a supplier also does not play a sound. On PS5 it is silent when it should play a sound effect.

Missing Sound Effects

[stev71]

Anyone else noticed significant bugs since the most recent ‘patch’ was deployed?
Since then I’ve encountered at least 3: NPC’s randomly spawning on top of buildings or just in the sky; doors I open that ordinarily would close by themselves just stay open; and most significantly, about every 4 maps or so, at random points, the game will utterly freeze. Not crash, just freeze up completely.
I’m hoping there’s going to be a patch soon to fix the bugs they’ve created as a result of the patch…

[thrison]

Tied to a wider issue from last year. Heaps of sounds went missing in one of the patches and they restored a whole bunch of them. But there is still heaps of sounds missing from the game on PS5.

Location: Berlin (Freelancer)
Description: This NPC’s black over shirt is severely clipping through his white undershirt.
Frequency: So far just once, but I haven’t gotten Berlin in Freelancer again since I noticed this.

[DrVortep]

ok so I am really pissed at a few failed perfected runs in freelancer, so here is a desparate ask to fix this:

1. Platform: Any

Location: Freelancer

Description: The “No combat” objective is misleading: combat is associated with state of Combat above the map (i.e., searching, combat, hunted, compromised, etc.) However, this objective actually fails when anyone is in state of panic, i.e., exclamation point above the head. For instance, if you triple shot, or shot the npc (lethal or not), etc. So you can fail this without ever entering a gun fight.

So, it should fail when you get status “Combat”, not when npc are in panic. Or the despriction should change accordingly.

Frequency: Always

2. Platform:* Any

Location: Freelancer

Description: The “Don’t blow your disguise” objective is weird: I got into fight with whole Dubai and didn’t lose it, got spotted and had one witness according to No wintesses objective - didn’t lose it. BUT once I got spotted in front of two dudes in one room, it is over.

Same goes here - should be probably renamed to “Don’t get compromised”, i.e., triggers when someone goes orange.

Frequency: Always

3. Platform:* Any

Location: Freelancer, hardcore mode

Description: Upon exit, SA prestige objective is obviously not completed and wrongly the lose theme plays for results screen, even though SA objective is counted afterwards. It is really nerving in Hardcore for SA objectives, calculating objectives before determining status of campain should probably solve the issue.

Frequency: Always

4. Platform:* Any

Location: Freelancer

Description: The “Use 0/1 disguises” objective is a bit misleading: it means that you can change it ONCE, not that you can use one disguise in a level and get back to your suit.

It is a minor thing, but probably “Change disguise (0/1) times” would work better

Frequency: Always

Description:
On PS4, when the “Good Quark VOL. 3” VHS Tape is thrown into a blast furnace in Mumbai, a burning sound effect is heard and purple smoke is produced.
On PS5, there is no burning sound effect and no purple smoke.
I don’t know if this is a spec or a bug, and I don’t know which specification is correct.
This difference may have something to do with the fact that the image of the “Good Quark VOL. 3” VHS Tape is not displayed in the inventory On PS5.

Also, just a side note, if I am not mistaken, I think the item is spelled “Quack” and not “Quark”.

Steps to reproduce:

1. “Good Quark VOL. 3” Bring in the VHS Tape and start the Mumbai mission.
2. Go to the metalworking district and throw the “Good Quark VOL. 3” VHS Tape into the blast furnace.
3. On PS4, a burning sound effect is heard and purple smoke rises; on PS5, no burning sound effect is heard and no purple smoke rises.

Frequency:
Always.

[Tom-Kannaduki]

I too think the purple smoke is wrong.
However, since smoke is produced on all models except the PS5, it seems that the wrong spec is the current spec.
I think it is strange that only the PS5 version has different specifications to begin with.
I hope that this bug report will lead to a real change to the correct specs for all models together.

The amount of times that Agent 47 has removed this monkey from his house only for it to return the next time I start playing is innumerable. PLEASE. IT’S LIKE 47 IS BEING HELD RANSOM BY THE MONKEY I DO NOT WANT IT

This has occurred with paintings too, and it seems like most of the decorations I put up, the game doesn’t seem to remember. The aforementioned primate is the most egregious though. Thank you.

[DrVortep]

Yes, a lot of decorations are returning and it’s quite annoying. For me it is paitning of Jesus Christ in the hall for some reason…

For God’s sake (pun intended), let me enjoy the paintings of locations, please!!!

[DrVortep]

Oh, how could I forget!

Location: Freelancer

Description: The “Arrange meeting” objective doesn’t work half the time: it never activates if you arrange meeting of different Agenda, it barely triggers when all the suspects are up and walking, it SOMETIMES triggers when the actual target is knocked out. It is really annoying, please fix it.

Frequency: Quite often. Too often

[Agent1980]

It shouldnt matter the agenda, the objective is arrange meeting, period.
