HITMAN 3 - Bug Report Thread

Platform: PC (Epic Games)

Location: All levels/game modes

Description:

If you have the aim action as toggle, you won’t be able to aim into windows, instead the camera will simply zoom in and out.

Steps to reproduce:

Change the aim action from hold to toggle in the options. Climb up a ledge, and once near a window try to aim. You will see that 47 is unable to aim inside the window. However, if you change aiming back to hold, it will work as intended.

Frequency: Always

The Herbalist Assignment is mistakenly on the contract creation screen. It is the normal version of Haven when you load in.

Really hope the “fix” for this bug is to officially support contract creation on the mission!

The Mission Stories in Herbalist Assignment don’t get a permanent checkmark on them to indicate you’ve previously completed them like Mission Stories usually do for permanent content.

To add on to this, when I finished the Hans Out mission story, the tooltip said mission story failed instead of mission story completed, playing on steam (windows)

Description: Latest update fixed issue with portable radios not playing music when turned on, but there are still three issues:

  1. NPC’s don’t turn off the radio after it is turned on, as they do with stationary radios.
  2. There were more tracks that would play on portable radio in Season 1, but they’ve disappeared since Hitman 2.
  3. When using L-IV Access Dongle, you cannot hack portable radios, unlike stationary radios.

What about it’s being feature, not a bug?
You may imagine sandful island facilities is being polluted with a thin film of sand dust with thousands of footwear and barefoot roaming here and there.
I would call it nice little thoughtful detail but not a bug

The room Mark Faba starts in is meant to be darkened, this is why the blinds are closed, and the primary light source is the projector. See this screenshot lifted from gameplay from H2 in 2019:

In H3/WoA, the room is now brightly lit like the blinds aren’t covering the windows.

Description:
Repeatedly saving and loading the game causes the underground drone to disappear.
As a result, the plant’s conveyor belt stops moving entirely; even after completing the “Stacks of Green” mission story, the “A Personal Blend” challenge cannot be achieved.

P.S. The time elapsed since the start of the mission might also be a factor.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Save and load the game multiple times during the “Haven Island, Herbalist Assignment” mission.
  2. The underground drone disappears.
  3. Even after completing the “Stacks of Green” mission story, the conveyor belt remains stationary because the drone is missing; consequently, it is impossible to assassinate the doctor or complete the “A Personal Blend” challenge.

The conveyor belt is not moving because the drone is missing.
tested, it is impossible to “push” Dr. Cyrus Cane.

lol. The CelebrETs all have random issues if you save and load.

I assumed this one would be fine since they had made it knowing that there would be a Special Assignment with save and loading available. Guess not. :joy:

I note it worked fine for me despite a lot of loading saves while testing out the options for the cookies. It may be more of an edge case than an every-time breakage, e.g. the drone breaks if you happen to save-and-load at one part of its loop.

If you go to the fish tank in the room where Tim Quinn and Justine Bassey are waiting, if you don’t have a screwdriver in your inventory it will just say “MISSING” and not “MISSING SCREWDRIVER”.

Description:
The DRUZHINA 34 found in the “Sec Break Room” during the “Herbalist Assignment” mission comes equipped with a suppressor, making its specifications different from the standard item of the same name.
While this might be an intentional design choice, I believe that changing the name—perhaps to “DRUZHINA 34 Custom”—would avoid unnecessary confusion.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Start the “Herbalist Assignment” mission on Haven Island.
  2. Enter the “Sec Break Room.”
  3. The DRUZHINA 34 located inside the room is equipped with a suppressor.

Description:
There are two instances of untranslated dialogue for the Herbalist.
One is a conversation between two people in the Security Room on the ground floor of the villa.
The other is a conversation between two people in the Control Room in the basement.
In both cases, none of the dialogue has been translated.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Start the Haven Island “Herbalist Assignment” mission.
  2. Head to the Security Room on the ground floor of the villa or the Control Room in the basement.
  3. The dialogue between the two people in both rooms is completely untranslated.

Description:
During the “Stacks of Green” mission story, while the target is touring the underground marijuana farm,
if you knock the target unconscious while they are standing between the cluster shelves and then attempt to crush them to death using the shelves, they do not die.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Progress through the “Stacks of Green” mission story.
  2. During the tour of the underground marijuana farm, place a banana where the target will stand between the cluster shelves.
  3. Wait in the Control Room; once the target is knocked unconscious between the cluster shelves, close the shelves to crush them.
  4. For some reason, the target does not die.

This is because it is using The Kashmirian’s customized version of the rifle from Chasing a Ghost (Mumbai). I’m not sure if it’s intentional that it uses this version in The Herbalist, but I believe that this version is intentionally named the same as the normal version.

I see—that rifle did indeed have a suppressor attached.
In that case, it might be a good idea to name it “Kashmirian’s DRUZHINA 34 custom.”

Description: wtf is going on with Hitman 3 crashing? I can’t even get past the IOI Logo when the game is booting; it just freezes. Hitman has never crashed for me before; now it freezes my whole PC, and I have to hold down the power button to reboot my PC. I want to play the new DLC; this is awful. I’ve done a full clean install of my drivers and the game, and still nothing.

Colorado Master Mode

Have posted this a few times over the years, but it still hasn’t been fixed.

The cameras added to Colorado in Master Mode aren’t connected to evidence recorders. You can be caught in a camera’s grid and have the relevant PIP display, but you won’t actually (temporarily) lose Silent Assassin. The tapes don’t need to be wiped unless you are caught by a camera that exists in Professional Mode to finish the mission with a Silent Assassin ranking.
