Some ideas regarding a snowy map.
-
A snowball mechanic. Similarly to Hokkaido Snow Festival, 47 can use a large pile of snow to create a snowball that functions like a muffin - it can be thrown as a distraction or to knock a person down to the ground - possibly under some circumstances, the latter can be classified as a snowfight rather than an assault, hence it won’t be illegal. A snowball cannot be concealed or placed on the ground, 47 can only drop or throw it, and it will break on impact. This is to ensure that players cannot “farm” an infinite number of snowballs in their inventory. I am aware of the snowball unlock we currently have that functions differently. It needs to go

Multiple possibilities of assassinating a target in regards to skiing or snowboarding. 47 can misdirect a target on a dangerous trail, sabotage their equipment, set some kind of a trap on their path and disguise it with a snow - all of these will result in a violent crash and a death of the target.
-
Perhaps, give some utility to axes and hatchets similarly to wrenches and screwdrivers. 47 can chop some wood and prepare a fireplace in a cabin, so it will be warm enough for a target to move in here, for example. Alternatively, 47 can weaken certain structures such as a terrace or a balcony that rest on some wooden pillars. For a variety and some amusing scenes, any kind of axe can be used for these purposes, such as a fire axe, a tomahawk, a battle axe.
-
Other accidents that are possible only on a snowy map. Icicles - already present in Hokkaido; slippery icy surfaces that can work like a wet floor in the Bank or a banana; frozen bodies of water where 47 or characters can walk, with the opportunity to crack the ice with gunshots or explosions causing everyone on top to drown in the water.

An esthetic point - when out in the snowfall, over time a small layer of snow will appear on 47’s shoulders. Whenever back to a building, the snow will melt, making his clothes wet like in Chongqing.
