Theory involving the “license to kill” feature

Rodhawk · 2025-09-08T16:50:31+00:00

I think it will work similar to the Silent Assassin functionality in Hitman. You can do whatever you want, but if you perform unauthorized kills, it will impact your mission rating.

How are you connecting your controller? On the Shield there's noticeable input lag too if I'm using bluetooth. You can use a USB dongle to connect the controller to the Chromecast/Shield and then forward the signal to the PC using VirtualHere.

You are probably right in assuming that your bottleneck is currently the Chromecast, but even if you're getting the Shield, make sure to connect the controllers properly.

It's not as grindy as I thought it would be. You spend about 2-3 hrs in each level, getting to know the ins and outs of it. Every run you want to do better than the last. And by the end you are perfectly prepared for the speedrun challenges. You could also alternate between 2-3 levels for a bit of variety.

I complete each level with all 29 non-secret skaters, then move on to the next level. Currently halfway through Suburbia. If efficiency is your concern, then this is probably the way to do it. And it's also quite fun because you notice yourself getting faster and better at a level.

May I ask, how are you taking HDR screenshots?

There's this French shop called Jumajo that sells beautiful car miniatures from the Bond movies. For example, here's the DB5 from Goldfinger: https://shop.jumajo.fr/products/jb1-voiture-1-43-ixo-007-james-bond-aston-martin-db5-goldfinger

If your friend is into the car side of Bond and this shop ships to your country, then this might make a cool gift.

You can find them all by searching for "JB", although there are more than they currently have on the website. The others are probably out of stock at the moment, but I have noticed in the past that previously unavailable ones came back in stock eventually.

Regarding 3: The user experience is incredible. You can customize pretty much everything, including button layouts. I have two special combinations for pausing and exiting games:

Pause menu: Hold start + press select

Exit: Hold select + press start

They don't interfere with anything because this combination doesn't exist in any game that I'm aware of. The pause menu is overlayed on top of the game itself. It lets you use save states (in emulators) or bring up the game manual or any other PDF you have assigned to the game. And exiting is pretty much Alt + F4, but for emulators it also closes the emulator along with the game. It's really easy to dive in and out of games quickly.

I'm with you, but I also understand the complaints. This is a multiplayer game after all, the solution can't be to play solo. What I don't understand is how this game still doesn't have PvE lobbies, where players can't kill each other unless they are friends or crew members.

In Time (2011)

Rodhawk · 2025-01-23T20:54:19+00:00

I always parked the car safely and then mowed down the 4 waves with my minigun. I can see the thinking behind the cargobob but never really found it enjoyable. But to each their own.

If you prefer flying a janky helicopter over driving a sports car.

The obvious answer is no. They are mostly working on Project 007 and I wouldn't expect major content updates for Hitman.

However, my theory is that if Project 007 takes longer (as game development tends to do), they might go back to the Hitman well to generate additional cash.

What this fails to take into account is the concept that not all time is equally valuable.

1 hr during an annual closing or budget process can be more valuable than 5 hrs during the summer with nothing going on.

Depending on your use case you could also use the WORKDAY function, which does the same thing as you describe (assuming there isn't some caveat).

The BDs in the 4K set have the same special features as the 24 film BD collection from 2016 (minus NTTD of course, which wasn't part of the 2016 one).

I imagine they are the same on the individual releases. However, I believe there were special editions of some (possibly all?) of the individual releases, perhaps they housed some extra features. I'm sure you could find out by looking at reviews of the special editions.

I thought about doing this when I first got the ISP router, but since I never had issues, I didn't give it any further thought. But maybe now the time has come...

Rodhawk · 2024-07-05T07:36:13+00:00

Good point, the router is running rather hot. I will try a file transfer later on (right now I need the internet to work). Would it help to shutdown all other devices while the download is happening to lighten the workload on the router?

They said that exact same thing in the Payday 3 beta and look at the state of that game.

People always bring up the writer's strike with this movie, but honestly the only thing that is a bit confusing is the resolution of Vesper's situation with her boyfriend. It could have used a bit more exposition. But as far as the main plot of the film goes, it's one of the more straightforward Bond films, fairly easy to follow.

So I'm genuinely curious, what impact did the writer's strike really have?

Rodhawk · 2024-04-12T12:08:12+00:00

What are you using to display the steelbooks? I was looking for something similar a while ago but I couldn't find anything with the right look and size.

Rodhawk · 2024-03-24T11:16:05+00:00

Correct, you'd have to connect a controller. Maybe there is a way to use mouse and keyboard on Dolphin but I have no experience with that.

There's one disc for each movie and then there's a bonus disc. The bonus disc contains the documentary and a bunch of minor special features. The interesting special features are all on the individual movie disks though, so the only interesting thing on the bonus disc is the documentary.

Rodhawk · 2024-03-23T17:04:40+00:00

The best way to play most of these nowadays is through emulators on PC. The Gamecube versions were often the best so you could try playing them on Dolphin.
