I just spent the last day or so digging through the entire Kashmirian storyline in Mumbai and I have to say I’m entirely amazed at how many small things you can have play out:
Kashmirian returns to bus stop:
A. If you take his rifle: He’s baffled that the rifle is gone, thinks it’s the Maelstrom’s doing
B. If you kill Rangan while he’s aiming at him: Comments that someone else had to be in on the contract
C. If you kill Shah while he’s aiming at her: Same as above.
D. If he’s knocked out and then woken up, or if he’s panicked in any way: Considers retirement, wants to leave the city.
- No difference if you take his clothes – he first goes to the nearest closet and takes a new outfit and then returns to the bus stop
E. If the Maelstrom isn’t waiting for him at the meeting: Gives up after around 30 seconds, comments that no one makes a fool out of him, how the Maelstrom doesn’t have time for him after the hit of the century.
- If he finds the Maelstrom’s body - same reaction as D.
F. If he misses Rangan (scope isn’t adjusted): Comments that Rangan is lucky and that he never misses twice. Once at bus stop, same lines as D.
The last thing that provokes him takes precedence over everything else – if you take his rifle after killing a target in his sights he will comment on the rifle being gone rather than a rival assassin.
Distracting the assassin:
A. If you distract him long enough for Rangan to move out of his sight: Goes back to his binoculars position, same comments on the scope and rifle as usual.
B. If you distract him long enough for Shah to move out of his sight: Goes back to aiming his rifle and never moves.
Diana reactions to laptop:
A. Both targets alive: Comments that the Kashmirian is “out of the picture”, suggests that you take one target out and call the other
- If you spawn at the chawls, with the dongle by your side: Same as above, also says that the Kashmirian is gone even if he’s still a factor.
B. If Rangan is dead: Suggests calling Shah – leads to her meeting the Maelstrom at the trainyard
C. If Shah is dead: Suggests calling Rangan – leads to him meeting the Maelstrom on the barge
D. If both are dead: Calls the intel interesting but a dead end.
Maelstrom meeting:
A. If Kashmirian takes out both targets: Calls the Crows and meets the Maelstrom in his base. Gets hired by him and smokes a self-replenishing cigarette on the walkway above the base forever.
- If he’s panicked after this, he goes back to the bus stop and has the same lines as the other “panic” scenarios.
B. If 47 dresses up as the Kashmirian: Gets access to the Maelstrom’s base, opportunity to kill him
C. If the Maelstrom is killed before meeting, even publicly: The meeting still gets organized, Kashmirian gets mad that the Maelstrom isn’t there and goes to the bus stop
This mission story alone is enough to propel this level to A tier.
Can anyone sift through the game’s audio files and see if there’s anything else that’s unique?
