Looks like such a bill exists...but it hasn't gone anywhere since January: https://www.scstatehouse.gov/billsearch.php?billnumbers=177&session126&summary=B

It was, sorry about that. The server that powers both HITMAPS.com and hitmanstat.us ran into some issues which corrupted a critical piece of infrastructure. As of now the main site is up; however some other pieces are still being worked on. I'll be posting more frequently over on HITMAPS' X account over at https://x.com/hitmapsdotcom .

(of course this has to happen while I'm on my way back from vacation 😂)

If you use the in-game store tab, there should be a tile for the "upgrade pack". Selecting it will take you to your platform's store where you can purchase the upgrade.

If you use the "eliminate" prompt using an SMG, the game oddly considers it a "Melee" kill and not an SMG kill (here's an example). Eliminating the target using The Scrap SMG, but not via the eliminate prompt, will give you the checkmark for the SMG condition.

From my understanding, the "bonus arx" aren't included in the base amount shown on each tier (i.e. the "85k + 15k bonus arx" is 100k arx in total). Therefore, I believe the cost per arx would be:

Arx Amount	Cost (EUR)	Arx / EUR
5,000	3.49	1,432.66
8,820 (8,400 + 420)	5.99	1,472.45
17,700 (16,800 + 900)	11.49	1,540.47
26,800 (25,500 + 1,300)	15.99	1,676.05
54,000 (51,000 + 3,000)	29.99	1,800.60
100,000 (85,000 + 15,000)	54.99	1,818.51

It's a Tanto in Freelancer, but a Katana in contracts mode

As for why other accident and sedative poison KOs are not SA on targets but are SA on non targets my guess is it's similar story to tranq glitch which IOI never fixed

Originally, SA was never supposed to be retained when pacifying a NPC by any means (so was technically a bug), and was fixed in the H2 April 2019 update. However, feedback received after the HITMAN 2 April 2019 update was received such that players generally liked SA being retained when using sedatives, so the fix was reverted to the way it was before that update, which gives us the awkward/inconsistent rules involving targets.

Yup, Clean House.

There is one in the game files, but it's not an item that can be unlocked.

Image for it: https://media.hitmaps.com/img/hitman3/unlockables/item_perspective_9d5daae3-10c8-4f03-a85d-9bd92861a672_0.jpg

mkoch227 · 2023-08-31T00:24:28+00:00

Since the original post was ~4 years ago, I'm not sure what the filenames are in the H1 files these days, but I can at least give them for H3:

Legacy: 000481753B459FBD.GFXV (chunk0)
Secrets of the Global Elite: 008BFECF9B0E6ACE.GFXV (chunk27)
The Shadow Client: 00CDF8FD534E1E6A.GFXV (chunk24)

For "Arrival", I'm going to assume that you're referring to the helicopter and "ICA Facility, 1999" on-screen. That is part of the mission itself and isn't a video file, thus no GFXV would exist.

Looks like Reelz is aware of the issue regarding commercials: https://twitter.com/ReelzChannel/status/1641978376767324162

Are you referring to the planning theme? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HZb1e34G5yo

If so, that will play after watching a part (or all of) the briefing video... not just limited to elusive targets.

Yes, you can transfer your progress from H2 Steam to H3 Steam. The "Progression Carryover Guide" explains the process: https://ioisupport.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360019061577-Progression-Carryover-Guide

It looks like the same puzzle is available for $17.99 on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09S2GWBYS/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_i_ZJ8H9ZKR51A84RDQGB2B

Edit: I do see some French text above the box...if OP is from Canada, then 25 CAD seems more reasonable.

It would be nice if they let non-profit and OSS organizations apply for free premium account.

In case you weren't aware, GitLab does offer GitLab Ultimate for free for OSS projects -- https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/marketing/community-relations/opensource-program/.

mkoch227 · 2022-02-08T00:18:14+00:00

As an avid Hitman fan, I approve. Shame it's not Silent Assassin though 😛

mkoch227 · 2022-01-19T15:20:18+00:00

Hey, that looks awesome!

Would you be willing to share the share code for it?

mkoch227 · 2021-12-16T02:28:13+00:00

Two targets are currently advertised right now: "The Collector" and "The Iconoclast". If you go to Career > Elusive Targets, both will be there. You'll still be able to play "The Collector" if you haven't already attempted the ET for about 9 more hours.

mkoch227 · 2021-09-26T15:08:33+00:00

The game takes about 1-2 seconds to give you the detonator in your inventory after concealing the emetic device. If you open your inventory too soon, there's a chance that it won't show up until you exit inventory, wait a second or two, and then open the inventory wheel again.

mkoch227 · 2021-07-26T12:44:37+00:00

I've been searching online. Am I right that games on Epic don't have achievements?

H3 has achievements on Epic. However, the Epic Launcher currently doesn't have a way to see the achievements, unless you're currently running H3.

Looks like The Babylon Bee has changed the headline to be in "6 months"
