In my opinion, IOI gives some players a chance to complete the unfinished ETs. This is preparing for the release of FreeLancer.

Why is the sniper rifle called the āWhiteā Ruby Rude when it isnāt even white? Itās mostly black with pink and teal. They could have simply called it the āRuby Rude 300 Sniper Rifleā.

Well. Done creating my 2 contracts for Hot Scope. One of them, may not be possible to get Sniper Assassin on unless you know how to get your targets to the right places without pacifying them. Sorry. I think you guys will hate me with this one. 
Iāll make a post on the Fan made contracts thread when Iām ready so that you guys know what sort of pain you can expect to suffer beforehand. 
With Heat Stroke, Iām stumped on ideas. What maps in the trilogy would fit well with this Summer theme? Marrakesh and Mumbai are two maps that I havenāt completed their Mastery Levels on and are also the maps I donāt particularly like. Miami would be a good map to pick. Haven Island, Dubai maybe? I donāt know. Heat Stroke may be that time where I either; recycle one or two of my old contracts, or skip the set entirely.

I have SO many ideas for Heat Strokeā¦
After your last ducky contract got featured and subsequently dumped on by people, Iām surprised youād go for another -style contract. Good luck with that homie.

Yeah. While it was good seeing people struggled, after seeing what was possible out of watching other peopleās runs of The Night The Duck Cried, I decided to go one step further and make another -style contract.
Anyway, those two contracts are created and posted on the forums. The is the Paris contract - Broaden Your Majestic Scope. The shade of violet in the contract image Iāve provided screams evilā¦ and pride. If that one does get featured, Iāll leave a note for the developers to alter the kill conditions so that you need The Majestic sniper rifle specifically, just to make it more for those that donāt have the 7 Deadly Sins DLC. Itās going to be fun seeing people attempt to complete this one.
Good luck with these two potential Hot Scopes that Iāve created if youāre on Xbox.
Looks promising. This is my first time ever attempting to create a contract to fit the featured contracts theme. Itās going to be litā¦ literally. Iām excited to see what else is planned ahead.

Uhā¦ this may or may not be an oversight but not many people are talking about this little problem about this roadmap. The Serial Killer Elusive Target and The Gunrunner Elusive Target are overlapping with each other in their dates. How will that work in-game in terms of menu, @Clemens_IOI? This would be better in sense if like one of the Featured Contracts is sandwiched in between two Elusive Targets so that we donāt get overlaps like these. I supposed there isnāt really much you could do about that with this roadmap.
At least weāll be getting whatās practically a pink Sieger 300 Ghost, a recolour of the best sniper rifle in the trilogy by completingā¦ another set of Elusive Target Arcade Contracts. Iām keen to see what people will come up with for these two Featured Contracts. Might be enough to keep me warm during Winter down here in Australia (Southern Hemisphere). I got 2 ready for Hot Scope, and yeapā¦ another contract in thereā¦ potentially unless there is like magic that these good players can come up with using a sniper rifle. If that does get featuredā¦ somehow, I want a teensy tiny change out of it when it releases, sniper rifle = The Majestic sniper rifle.
They overlapped the ET dates before with the Fugitive & Bookkeeper. Both ETs are active for their given time slots, but only one shows up on the main menu (I believe itās always the latest one on the menu).

You ever notice ALL ETās look like famous actors?

Is it of the Ghost variety? Looks more like the standard Sieger, the one that looks like the W2000 from Blood Money. That one didnāt have the extra penetration that sends targets flying further.
Why The Gunrunner and The Serial Killer now? These ETs appeared in the new Arcade Contracts just last week so absolutely zero hype to be able to touch these yet again. Where as itās been months since The Liability last appeared in a Arcade Contract, so it feels like this one is appropriately placed.
@Clemens_IOI When planning out where the ETs are going, are the ETs appearing in the Arcade Contracts that are getting released around the same time even getting taken into consideration? Itās just making things feel like repeat after repeat. Whereas if there was more space between an ET appearing in the Arcade and then in the OG ET format (like with The Liability in this roadmap for example), it would at least feel more ānewā and less repeat-y (which then also creates a feeling of boring).
This is most likely so players can unlock Summer Suit with Gloves and Suburban Suit with Driving Gloves (eck!).

At least for the Marrakesh ET, there were alternatives that they could have used instead that still allowed people to unlock the Summer Suit with Gloves to eliminate the repeat-y feeling. They couldāve gone for The Angel of Death or The Fixer instead.
(but tbh, AoD wouldnāt be so bad)

Or, they could have just made those suits unlockable in Arcade mode, but we donāt have time for rational solutions.

Still waiting for a banana unlockā¦

The banana seems like it could be a very fitting Mastery unlock for Ambrose Island (Please, IO! Make it happen!)
