That you can really stretch your throws…

I presume you can place the explosive if you yourself are disguised as a guard. 
Yes, thats unfortunately only way to do it. Otherwise you will be spotted.

Yet another thing in Hitman 2 I only noticed now when redoing the mission stories: I tried to do all the Whittleton Creek ones without reloading. I did the cigarette one but destroyed the oxygen tank to do the nurse one afterwards. In this case Janus’ lead bodyguard did not start his background check on the nurse (presumably because the prompt for him to start the investigation is Janus hooking himself up to the tank) and instead accompanied 47 and Janus to the bathroom and health checkup.

In Hitman Contracts, the code to Lee Hong’s safe is 1629512, I think. The nine could be a seven, but it looks like a nine, and the one in twelve could be 0.
EDIT: Actually, this may be for Rutgert Van Leuven’s safe.

Dubai is the only map with 3 safe codes. 2 universal ones for doors and emergency safes, plus a special one for the Shiekh’s bedroom.
Weird how we mostly never got more than two (Chongqing could really benefit to having at least 3… The amount of code doors and only 2 codes to use is a really strange security setup)

Shaman Powder, generally doesnt kill throwing it at someone´s head, except the Prisioner in Marrakesh, some NPC in a Agent 420 contract and Erich Soders.

I was killing guards in Whittleton Creek then Janus and Gunther went to Helen West’s house together. I thought this was weird as I think the only way to get Janus to go to Helen’s is to get rid of Gunther.
I don’t know if this is a bug or not. I’m thinking that it has something to do with the nurse going over to Janus’.
Crawled through about 400+ comments in the Unpopular opinions thread, came out with this:
David Bateson is South African and Jane Perry is Canadian.
Those are some really fun facts. (David also had education in South Africa, lived in Canada for a bit and now lives in Denmark)
Also explains why 47’s ‘accent’ isn’t so clearly defined… Bateson has had a lot of varying english dialects shoved into him at some point, I’m sure, so he can draw on all that a bit easier (or it slips).

In one interview Bateson discusses that in England people were quick to ask where he was from bc they couldn’t quite place his accent and he never understood why that mattered so much to everyone. He continued that in Denmark they don’t feel like they should know exactly where he is from just by his accent so he isn’t bothered so much by this repetitive question.
Yea Jane sounds not so much like Diana at all naturally. Her natural is pretty generic N American.

Yeah, I almost didn’t recognize her voice in Cyberpunk 2077.

Already known, but when I noticed this a few weeks ago it had me laughing out loud and throwing some celebratory fists into the air! 
The yellow camera/video evidence status that they added to the game. I had suggested quite a while ago about changing the green guns to yellow. So cool to see it in the game regardless of whether or not they got the idea from me! I’m just happy it’s there. 
Edit: If I could find an archive of one of those old posts, maybe I could quote it here.

Don’t want to spoil the mood, but 
Not only was this requested multiple times by different people, this feature was actually present for some time in the game when the SA tracker had just been implemented. I think it was only a matter of time when they would bring it back (fixing some related issues, I suppose)

Yeah you’re probably right. The flag looks pretty weird. Too flat it seems.
You can shoot at and destroy toilets/sinks in Hitman Contracts! I can’t believe I just found this out, super cool little detail.
EDIT: And just found this room with this guy. Never knew about this

Whittleton Creek, house 420 with the joint in it. TIL James Batty has a cigarette pack you can place that joint into. I also learned that you cannot get a lock-on to throw an item at someone while they’re moments away from passing out.

You should see the other showers. Quite the horrific sight…

One of my favorite things I’ve discovered in the trilogy is how many scripted kills can be done SO or via proxy.
For example, in Mumbai, Rangan/Shah can both be set up to be taken out by the Kashmirian SO. You can then go in the hideout and wait for Kale to show up.
You can also set up all 3 meetings between the targets in your suit.
In Hokkaido, you can sneak into the stem cell room, poison them, and use the terminal to make the nurse get a refill. You can even sneak into the room behind them, distract her, poison the stem cells, and get out, using a couple of coins.
Mendoza’s meeting can be set up SO by simply placing the bottle on the table. Vidal will die on her own, and you can poison Yates’ glass.
The Paris lockdown can be set up SO by taking out Novikov’s guard, likely with the poisoned sushi. You can then place a bomb in the winch, or shoot it from the entrance gardens.
The Marrakesh toilet kill is a great SO option, since the one or two ways to get in the school SO put you right near there and you can climb up into the bathroom.
The double car kill in Miami can be done SO if you get the drive. You can also lure Robert Knox down to the pier by just unlocking the food stand with a lock pick.
In Dubai, the skydiving opportunity, golfing opportunity, and poisoned food opportunity can be tackled in your suit.
While it’s a total chore, in Dartmoor you can set up the photographer electrocution trap SO by grabbing a fuse cell, and then setting the trap after the test shot.
Let me know if there’s any I missed! I know I missed some in Sapienza, H2 DLC’s, Bonus missions, and Chongqing.
