What are your top 3 CLEVER featured contracts?

Hitman: World of Assassination
1

Contracts that were the most fun, innovative and original, and requires a bit of thinking. Only example I can curently think of is “Whats in the Box?” and “The angry Golfer”

Seems like most featured contracts these days are just mindless junk, and I hate any/any contracts. Dont tell me to kill a target any way I like, I can do that in the main campaign. At least put in a bit of effort, dammit!

You didn’t search the contracts for yourself if you’re saying so.
Compared to the junk you find in a regular search, Featured Contracts are accurately picked gems

And I hate contracts where I’m told how I should kill a target and/or be limited with no pacifications, limited time and other crap restrictions.

So Featured Contracts must be a balance between what players like and don’t like in contracts.
Because I personally think that Featured Contracts is a face of Contract Mode.

The idea was not to start an argument, I just asked you to name 3 clever contracts. To each his own, you dont have to like what I like. Jeeez…

Then you probably shouldn’t have included things like:

“most featured contracts these days are just mindless junk”

“I hate any/any contracts”

“put in a bit of effort, dammit!”

If you just wanted people to tell you about contracts they like, ask that instead of saying things that are absolutely going to generate conversation beyond your request.

Glad that @djsojus linked my topic to this conversation because I got quite alot to bring to the table.
I completed almost every FC with 5 Stars SA (Still got the last 6 contracts from the new batch) and I listed my 10 favorite fcs with detail so I actually acknowledged the good and the bad.

To be honest, yeah there are lots of awful contracts, no one said there never were, but, we had lots of great ones to enjoy.

Don’t remember “The Angry Golfer” but “Whats in the Box?” was indeed fun, tho I do prefer the “Water Way To Go..” contract which was also made by the same creator (KevinRudd) and follows a similar principle (Instead of sniping targets into boxes you snipe them with a non lethal sniper into water).
Just checked out “The Angry Golfer”… yeah, I disagree it was mid.

There are way too many for me to even start…

  • Urben’s “6 Chiemneys in Konigsberg” is amazing with how it completes 2 routes together.
  • magicdave84’s “VrTruvian Men” is great with the forced natural electrocution.
  • “Perfect Shooter Puzzle” by White-Half forcing you to execute kills normaly done with a gun but via other methods.

I can even bring some of my FCs to this conversation as examples:

Dude just check out whatever seems fun, there are more than enough contracts.

I can see where you are coming from, but, what if there’s more for the contract being Any/Any?

Plenty of sniper contracts (for example) are made Any/Any either to allow the player to to choose between sniper and far triggered accident and sometimes to let the player understand themselves that the intention is sniper.

There are also some great ways to implement puzzles into contract while keeping it with no objectives, for example my The Glass Room, another example is my SONKO Challenge #107 that even tho it has objectives, they were placed just for the SONKO, could be Any/Any and the contract would still be the same.

But yeah, this is just a “I don’t take the time to try and find the great FCs in the game so I just complain that they all suck” stupid rant.

Yeah, so…
Urben’s “6 Chiemneys in Konigsberg”, magicdave84’s “VrTruvian Men” and White-Half’s “Perfect Shooter Puzzle”.
I could name alot more.
This is not even including mine.

Drama aside, these are my picks:

  • Perfect Shooter Puzzle Remix, this one was already mentioned but it’s the right way to use “perfect shooter” in contracts - a clever use of mechanics instead of just restricting player options.
  • Fooling Bobby, a really original use of timers and no-KOs.
  • Süßer die Nacken nie klingen (I hope I got the spelling right :x ), revolves around the noise generated by breaking target necks in a no-KO which I don’t think I’ve seen elsewhere.

  1. Schizophrenia
  2. Where patients meet (though it lost its relevance after the appearance of the oil canister)
  3. The New Yorkian bunny/Duck-billed dollars (I don’t know which one to choose)
