Just checked in Hitman 2 and it is only the two guards. They do talk, and it is about looking out for intruders too, but not a looping detailed conversation that the trio have in 3.

Also the NPC names are carried over, but one of the character models (the one on the left in that photo) has completely changed.

Does this mean there’s a new NPC in the map? Or did IOI just relocate an existing one?

Are they talking about something “important”? Like story relevant?

As of now, the Imperial Classic is the only short-sleeved Formal suit.

there’s condensation from 47’s breath in the hazmat suit. love the detail, though i couldn’t determine if it changes over time or not.

It’s funny how just bc it’s a 3 piece suit it’s categorised in formal (cashmerian, imperial classic). They are both just suits; neither are formal wear, but as times change and the vest becomes less and less common people consider it fancier than they once did.

I’d also say classic all black is not formal.

I would agree that neither the Cashmerian, Imperial Classic nor Classic Black suits would technically count as formal attire. However, the Formal category would feel a little sparse if only the tuxedos remained. And the Classic category would start to look very bloated indeed!

I suppose it’s always a case of where to draw the line. If we were being fully traditionalist about this, even the tuxedos would fail to meet requirements because they do not feature white ties. Then the Formal category would be empty. On balance, I think the current arrangement works well.

“Black tie” is formal too, just a rung below “white tie.”

I hadn’t thought about how lopsided the categories would be though.

These days, yes. But if we looked at the 19th century origins of the black tie, we would see that it was quite literally considered to be informal dress. I’m not being entirely serious, just illustrating the point that conventions evolve over time.

Let’s go back to bolt on collars!!! Everyone in tails all the time! Yea man! Someday what we call workout apparel will be formal 😂. I’m happy I’ll be dead by then.

Combing through the RPKG PC files of Hitman 3 to get some high-quality images of the locations, there are some really interesting file names that I had no idea were called so internally at IOI at one point.

The Sniper Assassin mission codenames are under  
Hawk for Himmelstein  
Seagull for Hantu Port (or “Salty” elsewhere)  
Falcon for Siberia. (or “Caged Falcon”)

The menu image for Patient Zero Campaign is called “White\_Spider”

Isle of Sgail is called “The Island” in some places and “North Sea” in another

My favourite remains the H2SA beta, where The Motorcade Interception seems to have originally been called Turban Legend Take-Out. Immortalized by the username of yours truly. No idea who came up with that name or what they were smoking, but they nailed it.

I’m not familiar with the context of it, but I’m guessing it’s a ridiculous summary of a target who wears a turban?

* * *

Ghost Mode originally had a working title of “Assassination Race” in its early concept stages (I think it was originally way more than 1v1)

Just found out now that they’ve abbreviated the title in the files to “assrace” 😆

idk if the numbers mean anything but I scratched em anyway)

Here’s something very interesting. There’s a disguise contract complication called “Disguise\_Any” (vs. the one we all know “Disguise\_Hitman\_Suit” Suit Only)  
I don’t think I’ve seen this used anywhere, even in escalations.

“Assassination Race” was to be a 16-player mode. When H2 was first announced, the blurb that was supplied to retailers to put up on their online stores had a small mention of this mode in error and a revised one was later sent out that removed it.

Looks like AR and Ghost Mode are the same thing, and what became GM was just the 1v1 version of it.

It’s part of the Afghanistan arc of the game, yeah. You have to assassinate a local Khan who is in a UN motorcade, he does indeed wear a turban. 😂

That’s a lot of corporate deception just to steer us away from the truth of the assrace. 👀

But is he tho? Hey wears the same Headscarf like Sheikh Gazali in Paris and the Sheikh in BM, are those called Turban too?  
The Guys in the Indian Missions wear what i would call a Turban.

It was my understanding that these are all called turbans. But I suppose we can split hairs and say the Khan and the Sheikhs are wearing more generic headscarves.

The Khan is always going to be a turban legend, though. It’s canon. 😉

The word for it is keffiyeh or ghutrah and no @MrOchoa they are not quite the same. It could still be a turban with extenuating extra cloth.
