The Banker Elusive Target

Mads Mikkelsen returns as Le Chiffre, the iconic private banker to the criminal underworld, known for his mastery of games of chance and probability. A recent failed venture left him in dire straits, losing vast sums of both legitimate and illicit capital, and in a desperate bid to recover, he has arranged a high-stakes poker game at the Casino Monarchique in Paris. Agent 47 has been tasked with infiltrating the perilous event and will have to find his way to his target to prevent havoc being wreaked across the world. Agent 47’s poker face will be put the test, but there will be many ways to complete this mission.

every roadmap seems to have one decent unlock and 2-3 more useless items nobody will ever use. a cocktail shaker? the bottom of the barrel is so thoroughly scraped at this point

Hell yeah for the Pastel Suit! Finally, I’m able to do a more immersive playthrough using only the Pastel Suit and the banana!

New ET and related items are awesome.

Returning ETs are… predictable and pretty much joyless.

Cool new suit, but those other challenge unlocks are again just reskins of things we already have.

The fixes to bugs and glitches is just… frustrating at this point.

Would be cool if the cocktail shaker could be used as a portable way of preparing and poisoning drinks around a map, but almost certain it’s gonna be a lame ass melee weapon.

Good roadmap.

For the CelebrET and new Paris alone. (always wanted a new Paris, with another internal court)
The rest is good, if nothing that will make me truly replay the game in the summer. Which is fine by now.
The ET track is with no surprise, but necessary to guarantee the location unlocks for Y5 newcomers.
FC Batches are always good.

The 25th anniversay of C47 is approaching now…


@Combatglue
You know it.
You dread it.

Solstice suit with added providence pin :providence_pin: for the next one, please?


(I need one more serious suit using the H3 fit)

see the thing is i’ve redeemed the code, it’s on the website as redeemed, it’s just not in-game yet

edit: closed and reopened the app and now i have both it and the chip. nvm. also weird these dont add to your chips in the mission

i tend to just idly play these batches and dont tend to give feedback but i will say i love the thumbnails so far - if those are yours

They are indeed mine. They only seemed to have boosted the contrast a bit.

How do you redeem the Tik Tok duck exactly? Can I do it from PC or do I have to download the app no matter what?

So the Casino Monarchique Chip (1,000,000) is a bit weird. The 100,000 chip you get from the Twitch Drop behaves as a normal coin. But with the million chip from the DLC pack, it’s not quite a coin even though you get three of them.

You can’t throw another one to redistract an NPC mid-question mark like you can with a coin. If you throw one an NPC will come over to investigate but won’t pick the chip up like they would for a coin. Placing it down on the ground will still cause an NPC to pick it up though, even if you place it down and an NPC walks to see it later.

Perhaps there’s some use for these unique distraction properties, I guess it gives you more control over whether you want an NPC to pick it up? I love that both values have their own unique “chip clicking” sound effects when thrown!
