HITMAN - Anniversary Roadmap

Also because of the Halloween theme of October, the Fugitive fits better because the gimmick of figuring out his identity is kinda like dealing with people wearing costumes and guessing who’s who. Trick or treat; guess wrong it’s a trick, guess right it’s a treat.

I refuse to believe that anyone has ever said The Badboy or The Food Critic are among their favourite ETs.

Pretty sure they consider every ET from H1 to be a “fan favorite.” Only way that statement makes sense every time they use it.

hopefully the challenge just gives xp and not a score multiplier, would kind of mess up the game mode if they just added a new score multiplier challenge after 5 years right ? or am i wrong

Seriously? Last week is literally the only time someone here wasn’t playing that sniper map? That’s kinda funny.

Man, as much as I wanted the Black Streak suit, I had always thought the Sunset Streak suit on Stadia was the prettiest of the bunch. But now, with this Purple Streak suit, this one looks awesome, and might just be my favorite.

Interesting new suit unlocks!

Looking forward to game improvements too :slight_smile:

It’ll likely just give the suit and nothing more, but I’d love it if it gave a score multiplier as well. It would make the tedious grind to get Level 20 Mastery slightly less tedious. Since with a higher multiplier a new maximum score would be possible, it also would encourage people who care about the leaderboards to actually play the mission multiple times to get a better score, instead of playing it just once to get the new suit.

Assuming what you mean about the bad UI is this with all the massive icons all over the screen -

That will be just be the mobile touchscreen controls, but they do say that the mobile versions will have full controller and keyboard & mouse support, and it’s also coming to Switch (i didn’t notice this at first), so those versions will look like this -

Much better!

The wait for an Ambrose Island escalation continues.

The new suits are great. Especially the pumpkin head. Are we actually getting a challenge pack for Codename 47? That’s cool. Don’t know why they got rid of them.

Yeah that’s what I meant.
Now the bottom screen one looks way better! But I still find the icons too big, hopefully you can resize them.

I get that the hitman community (especially in these forums) is an older crowd, but sheesh, I think people are overreacting about the twitch drops thing. It’s good for community building and encouraging people to watch entertaining streamers they normally wouldn’t have. It’s also braindead easy to link your twitch account to wherever it’s needed and know which streams are participating in the twitch drops, not to mention you can just have the stream on on your phone or a separate tab for the hour or so you usually need it for without needing to watch the stream.

Also a bit shocked that some of yall have never even heard of it, it’s literally been ingrained in gaming culture since forever. But anyways, glad to see the roadmap, hopefully the patch is more substantial, and the blood money remake comes to pc and console too. (I’m also begging that they touch up the C47 suit, it’s been in the files for like ever, so I’m a little dissapointed it still looks like, well, that, but hey, at least the shirt and tie suit looks good, even without the holsters)

Do i have to create a twitch tv or twitch prime

Happy 25th anniversary IOI!! :tada:

What a cool roadmap.

Firstly, these suits are so sick! Fans have been asking for a version of his suit without the jacket or buttoned up, and the Sniper Challenge suit definitely fits half of that bill. Gonna wear that one everywhere. Only thing I’d add is the sleeves rolled up. That’s a personal preference tho… :smirk:

Not to mention, the new low-res C47 suit is a weirdly cool surprise, and it reminds me of this Lara Croft skin: Shadow of the Tomb Raider lets you unlock a 'low poly' Lara Croft model | PC Gamer
(We also know which suit MrOchoa will exclusively be using from now on lol)

Oh and I’m shocked the pumpkin head is actually a suit now. They’ve reiterated in the past that since it was not intended to be 47, they’d never make it one. Just goes to show how much they value fans’ input :slight_smile:

Thank you.


red tie and sleeve up

The tie down would be a great bonus, just have to remove the badge from this I believe unique red tie variation of the investment banker disguise in New York.
Give me a 47 letting down after coming back at the Safehouse Suit IOI.

  1. There should be “drop enabled” tag according to Twitch official and u should probably link ur Hitman account to it as well.
    Twitch Help Portal
  2. They will probably pick some popular streamers, maybe some folk here can help with that (don’t really watch streams).
  3. Target drop, however not every streamer will play it same day I presume.

Sniper challenge suit would be neat with holster,but I guess name should tell us no pistols allowed. It’s a shame,but still one of the best suits out there.
Codename 47 either looked differently or I am getting old.

If they do a puzzle theme and don’t open it up to submissions when I have a bunch of puzzle contracts (including modded ones) that completely fit the bill and are good, then I’ll… be slightly annoyed very briefly

I appreciate your overall point, but I don’t think we’re kvetching because figuring out Twitch is difficult, or because watching other people play a game instead of playing that game yourself is a weird generational thing.

It’s more that this is an unconventional way to unlock a cosmetic that points to a greater trend in gaming where “consumer engagement” supersedes, well, gameplay. Still, I’m pretty sure we’ll mostly all do it.

I am more confused by the following statement:

What is “it”?

Ya i remember tomb raider did a classic skin from the original game and it was exactly. Not sure why 47 doesn’t look like how he did.

Presumably something about having the facial bones hooked up in the same way as everything else in WOA so he can have lip sync etc to everything
