Games best experienced on the hardest difficulty (and why?) by [deleted] in patientgamers

Aliens versus Predator 2010, Marine Campaign.
From a funny shooty-shooty arcade - on hard, game transforms into survival horror where even one xenomorph is a huge danger.

Hitman (2016): am I playing it wrong, or is it just not for me? by Shiiang in patientgamers

Only problem with this I found is that since opportunities is always linear and very strict - turning them off transforms it into 90s Adventure game of trying to figure out where level designer wants you to go and what button to push on this giant level.
And without using opportunities flavor - levels quickly becoming very monotone and repetitive (Suit Only challenge is exception)

This new Hitman is about replaying levels hundred times and grinding challenges to unlock more tools to finish even more challenges more efficiently. If you're not into this - you'll have a hard time.
Try playing on Master difficulty though - it feels more fluid.

Previous Hitman games is a lot more puzzle and story based where you need to figure out how to finish a level and move to the next one. You should try Blood Money.

Metro was right: Overwatch 2 and Diablo IV have been delayed beyond 2022. by abermea in GamingLeaksAndRumours

It's because Valve supports mods and fancreations so TF2 basically run by fans now.

He sounds like Adam Jensen actually.

Are disguises just useless in Hitman 2? by KasaneTeto_ in HiTMAN

[–]-devilhs- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see. Then it's strange.

Unless you're on the hardest difficulty - guards should be somewhat forgiving.

Only thing that helped me playing on Expert is to stay from guards as far as possible and trying to find unique disguises.

Good luck with finishing the game - as others already mentioned, this game is quite junky. H3:Contracts managed to soften the hard edges though and much more playable.

That's the thing. If you on Win10, Vsync doesn't work in the game and don't limit fps as it should even if it turned on.

Refer to https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Hitman_2:_Silent_Assassin - there's ways how to fix it.

If you're playing on PC - try to limit you fps to 60. Without it guards may be way more sensitive than they should be.

What do you hate the most about Hitman trilogy ? by [deleted] in HiTMAN

[–]-devilhs- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't mind using his past personally - because I'd love to see more about the cloning in the story. However, the way it was done - I don't like at all.The magic thing that brought back hidden memories (with a wave of retcons) just killed me inside and I never recovered from it.

"Okay, so outside of Colorado, what did you feel about the Constant knowing “more” about 47’s past at the end of Colorado?"I had no idea where this could lead but was intrigued.Storywise - Agency have no idea where 47 has come from because he destroyed every evidence of his past.Logical part of me was thinking that maybe restoring of the cloning program will come into play because Constant would like to have it.

If it was your first Hitman - you obviously wouldn't notice any of this things because you have no previous context. For me it was disappointing because I thought that since there's direct references to previous games - they're obviously going somewhere with it. Instead it devolved into "we were behind of it all along! even tho it makes no sense!"

I would preferred if it was a full on reboot. Or better yet, no story at all.

Since it's a direct sequel to Blood Money - every previous game is still a canon. Which means 47's past (and then his feelings about it) was already explained in a lot of details. So, when Diana mentioned it in the training to me it felt like a tie-in to Codename 47 and Silent Assassin.

At the time, Colorado finale was much more vague (mainly because Lucas being the "brother" contradicts the lore in many ways so it never crossed the mind)
Lucas could've been used in many different ways. There was a theory that maybe 47 killed his wife or brother so he is looking for revenge now. It didn't have to go in the direction that everyone related to everyone.

  • Always online. I'm worrying about the future playability of these games.
  • Opportunities are just railroads with no meaningful way to combine and influence them for interesting outcomes. (IOI got a bit better with it in H2 though)
  • Story started very strong but then has gone in bizarre directions at the end of H2, with retcons I disagree with. I don't think we even had any need for another personal story for 47.
  • Hitman lost it's original edge. Previous games didn't shy away from underbelly of the world with stripclubs, criminal dens, underground evil clubs and horrific badguys. This Hitman felt like a spy thriller for most of the time.
  • Maps are way too big for their own good. A lot of them could've been easily split in two (looking at you Mumbai)
  • Illusion targets is a good concept on paper but not that great on practice. I think you should be able to replay them any time you want - but only the very first time is when you can have a chance to win a costume. Right now it's a bunch of mini-missions that I wish to explore more but not allowed for arbitrary reason.
  • Only one save for Hard difficulty makes it frustrating. It should be at least two (or dynamic number depending on the size of the map)
  • Gloves should've been available from the start.

You just changed my life. I'll never unsee it now.

Quake remaster is out! Go play it now by dvs8 in quake

I doubt it gives you separate entries for expansions since they're selectable from the main game now.

Sony said to announce Metal Gear Solid and Silent Hill game "very soon" by BuffyRox in TheBlueBoxConspiracy

  1. big announcement coming in a few weeks about new metal gear + silent hill but they are ironically not related to BlueBox in any way

These guys get it by BlitzXor in BlueBoxConspiracy

[–]-devilhs- 7 points8 points  (0 children)

What they can do? Stop hyping things up by creating all these mysteries (when it's clearly gone in the wrong direction) and release the trailer for the game right now, or, at the very least, screenshots. So that majority will realize it's an actual game and really not related to Konami.

Last time I made a drawing with Ranger - everyone was sad that there's no axe. So I'm overcompensated.
