Finally reinstalled to test patch 2. Game now clocks in at a whopping 40GB - more than Batman and Metro combined… and it’s still broken. Like the last patch, it did fix some things - but at the expense of other things. I noticed way more things that are now broken rather than improved, with the rating system being the only noticeable plus.
Aside from the rating system, I’d say that the launch version is the best of the three since the game has gotten progressively worse. It’s like those cartoons where the character plugs a leaking ship hole only for three more to appear.
I’ll put out a video on it, but I’d say the game is beyond redemption.
IOI, if you’re listening, don’t invest more into Hitman 3 VR. Get Flat2VR to make a VR version of Silent Assassin or Blood Money instead, as that would play better and look better. Resi 4 VR is the best game on Quest (excluding Metro ) so there’s no reason you couldn’t do the same thing! Give us a good Hitman game on Quest. After XR Games’ disaster, I think they deserve it!
Not sure about the classics, but a VR dedicated standalone Hitman game, designed specifically to accomodate all quirks of VR and make the best use of them, instead of trying to shoehorn a flatscreen game into VR, can have some incredible potential!
That could be cool. Perhaps like Contracts where he’s remembering old contracts. Then you could have a mix of levels from every game, with perhaps some new levels in there too!
Here’s some brief footage and thoughts on the patch. I wish I could include stuff like the black screen when walking through the ducts when it loses tracking, but the length of the short isn’t enough to show off all the problems that still exist and have been added.
Are unlocks still broken? For me that’s the main issue with this release. They even mention non-default starting locations fixes in patch notes, but as far as I understand, there’s no way you can unlock them
