What's New....?

Ah, in that case, just take the delisting option into consideration :wink:

Today I spent my lunchtime tearing down Reform UK (far right political party led by Nigel Farage in the UK) posters around my school that’ve appeared in the build up to a mock election. I’m still concerned that the student body will vote for the Farage party to be ā€˜funny’, but the amount of dopamine I got taking just one poster off a window gave me about as much joy a week’s worth of Hitman does. Can’t wait to see the tories out of government for the first time since I’ve been aware of who the prime minister was

I had a dream last night and it involved Hitman 3 VR Reloaded being announced as multi-platform, and now I realise it was just a dream and I am sad :frowning:

Frankly, I don’t mind if that guarantees MGSV in the possible Volume 2 won’t be needing online features for stuff like some unlockable camoiflages and alike.

That is inded one hope that I also have in case of it“s inclusion in Vol. 2 - all of the content available without the need for an online mode (not sure if they could make the in-game economy work without it, but fingers crossed).

And also fixing that many of the camouflages you unlcok seem to have nonsensical usage, like a camo called Desert Ambush being useful in greenery enviroments instead the desert.

Have you thought about talking to your teachers about this? Reform may be a ā€œlegitimateā€ party, but their members have been caught being rather friendly towards Hitler, defending Putin’s invasion of Ukraine, and a ton of racist dog whistles about Muslims and immigrants. Even worse if idiot students are putting them up themselves to potentially threaten or bully other students, like ethnic minority students. I would definetly try and fight against it and see if anyone else you know will help you against it.

Funny you mention that, I appear to have forgotten to mention what my interactions with four members of staff over the matter:

  • I bumped into one near one of the posters, and she took it down and told me not to tell anyone (I can only assume she meant in school and not the Hitman Forum)
  • I asked a second if any had turned up in the building she teaches in and she was quite concerned about it, asking if I wanted to make a report about it as she hadn’t heard about the mock election and I’ve gone to her before over some homophobic abuse in the past).
  • The head of sixth form said ā€œGoodā€ upon hearing one of the posters was taken down
  • One of the teachers around the area the posters were getting put up (her room was the only one in the department without any on the windows) was also annoyed about it.

So I think there’s definitely a concern for the impact of giving Reform the time of day. I think it’s an issue that I’d need to raise directly with the Politics department, and since one of the teachers also teaches me History, I’m considering bringing it up to her when I see her tomorrow morning.
I wish my constituency didn’t have reform polling as high as 3rd, almost in line with the tories :confused:

Thankfully the group representing the Lib Dems are vehemently against them (Reform even pulled down one of theirs) and my friend group has helped me take them down, as well as defile one of them :slight_smile:

That’s one of the reasons why I advocate for the current PC version - among the many mods is Camo Consistency Revamp, which addresses precisely this :wink: (it’s the one that got me into the mods in first place and I literally can’t play without it - not to mention all those gorgeous camo mods replacing some of the bland vanilla ones)

Yeah, would be cool but my PC isn’t really for gaming. Just work and alike. Gonna wait for announcements of Volume 2 or the super duper 80% discount for the Definitive Edition.

It’s that time of the year again: Our local festival starts today. Not a lot of acts I’m really looking forward to. But there’s always some surprises and I always discover someone new to me that I like.
My plan so far: The Hives (again…), Ofenbach (although they are kind of boring), Paula Carolina (don’t know anything about her, but sounds interesting), Provinz, Queens of the Stone Age, Bilderbuch, K.I.Z, Dilla, RóisĆ­n Murphy, The Chainsmokers (boring again, but could be fun), CrĆØme Solaire, 01099, Nina Chuba and maybe Maisie Peters.

BG3 is 20% off, which never happens and won’t happen again for a while, so I guess I’m buying it!

Hitman WoA is at 2.99 € :exploding_head:

Buy Codename 47, Silent Assassin and Contracts, that’s the better investment.

I don’t think it is. That’s Part One. The advertising is wrong.

Oh, you’re right. I searched for the game and only looked at the price, that is displayed in the search results list for ā€œHITMAN World of Assassinationā€. But that is for ā€œHITMAN World of Assassination Part Oneā€, which you can’t see from the search results. The regular game costs 27.99 € at the moment.

Correct. But there’s also an ā€œupgrade packā€ for cheaper, that seems to have the same content? I can’t figure it out. I made a reddit post about it but no one got back to me. I know people ask about Hitman pricing online pretty much every single day…

As a follow up from this, the group of politics students representing Reform didn’t put a manifesto video forth in time, so they won’t be on the mock election ballot paper. :sunglasses:
Oh, and, the posters were supposed to be in classrooms only so they would have been taken down anyway.

There is a forum member named ā€œQuinnā€.
But couldn’t find him here now.

I think I will miss this Disruptor ET as I am far away from gaming.
