My thoughts exactly :grin:
I’m back from a day to the seaside and ready to dunk on more missions already below 20 points.

The most creative HITMAN WOA mechanism is falling, alas…

Creativity means sweet fuck all if the implementation is poor.

This mechanic is essentially a zombie horde. I mean, yeah… that can be fun and is a great substitute excuse for a kill-all challenge. But sometimes… MOST times I don’t want to deal with the hassle. When you have to consistently go for the same gal who, I can only imagine, phoned her dear mother before going downstairs to let her know she was going to look at “the sick man” that starts to get a little tired. I’m surprised she didn’t take a duckfaced selfie and :victory_hand: with him shuffling towards the examination room in the background.

No one will deny that it is very easy to avoid viruse and then it becomes boring; But the mechanism provided by this stage was different; Suppose this mechanism was in Italy or a bigger and better map; It would be a masterpiece; But now the map is bad; But I think he should be in the final because of the mechanism he presented

Make it Colorado and that’d at least justify using the Wickerman Challenge Easter Egg. But other than that - IMO, I don’t think so. Unless killing infected were an optional objective because…

The virus, while it supposedly kills 47 after so long, doesn’t seem to kill the NPCs. If it did, that’d be a problem that would work itself out. That’s a bit of an inconsistency with the Patient Zero mission.

It’s also kinda silly that the virus immediately dies too when the host is dead. Naw. It would likely still be communicable for some amount of time. But there’s no point in scrutinizing videogame logic. :clown_face:

Edit: But if you enjoy having to kill a bunch of NPCs for about an hour that’s your prerogative.

Different strokes for different folks. :smiling_face_with_sunglasses:

Have you ever stopped to just, figure out the countless ways in, the amount of drain pipes and ledges across the outside, combining that with the high volume of entrances and exits, plus the secret rooms. The fact that you can unlock the starting locations outside (in your suit) after the family meeting, opens up different kill opportunities much sooner so thats another thing to route.

What other map allows you to directly cause your target to commit suicide? Okay, doesn’t take your fancy, how about smothering her in a panic room with a pillow, or perhaps the photography kill opportunity? What about the fact you can push her into her own grave and bury her? (Or woodchip her if you’re a maniac)

… have you spent longer than one minute, just… listening. The first dialouge you hear at the default starting location is literally about a murder investigation. And, as i’ve mentioned before, the entire photography mission story, plus the inclusion of a fake funeral with matching grave behind. What else do you mean?

You said it yourself, the music, its beautiful in every way, from the main theme to the exfiltration/mission score track, its one of the best soundtracks to any hitman level in the WOA trilogy. The design and layout of the building is stunning, it looks great, it flows great, it has amazing opportunities for contract creation, plus come off it, you must have thought they nailed the gloomy England vibe here?

I disagree; The spread of the virus and the forced killing of patients in a very creative and stressful map. In this way, you have to kill the main patient first. Suppose the main patient is in a difficult place (like Caruso’s laboratory). In this way, the map becomes challenging. Objectives become unexpectedly complex. Which one should I kill first? the doctor; or the main patient; Or let some secondary patients be added; Because if I don’t kill the doctor first, it will be difficult to kill him and… These things increase creativity and ideas

You are right about the complicated paths; I accept; about creative opportunities; Aren’t most of these things you said related to story missions? All maps have these missions; But it is a good map that can be creative without a story mission; Regarding the exciting event; Yes, it is interesting for the first time; But when you receive secret the game rar, it is no longer an event, even if it is an exciting event; I agree with you about the theme of the stage; Your words convinced me that maybe this stage is not bad (even maybe it can be called good); But whatever it is, it cannot be considered perfect

My faith in this community has been eternally ruined.

@The_Elite_Institute I’m gonna try and save at least Hayamoto Jr.

@BlobSponge sneakily tried to snipe Berlin, but as much as I’d agree with that, I’m afraid it’ll have to wait until the finals, so I added it back.
