Oooh [B]Hitman Trilogy HD Coming in January, Cover Art & Premium Edition Revealed[/B] [t]http://i.imgur.com/AOc1F.jpg[/t] [t]http://i.imgur.com/tOhQv.jpg[/t] Pretty sure it's not coming to PC, though.

It's probably just gonna be the "hey we upped the resolution and made it widescreen" "HD" versions so it would be pointless to make that for PC since you can already do that there.

Here are some pictures from the trilogy. No HD visuals, just upscaling for HD TVs. I'd really like to see a Wii U version of the trilogy, it would be amazing having the map and item selection screen on the gamepad.

Those edges holy shit.

So thats the reason why it won't be released for PC... The PC version already looks 5x better :v: [editline]13th December 2012[/editline] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/pPnut.jpg[/IMG] VS [IMG]http://media.gamer.nl/screenshots/7057/70575.jpg[/IMG]

I couldn't believe my eyes when I caught this in game. I never thought I'd see 47 look so smug in all my life. [URL=http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/138/2012120700011.jpg/][IMG]http://img138.imageshack.us/img138/3719/2012120700011.jpg[/IMG][/URL]

Anyway to work around a VPN on steam so I wouldn't have to connect to it everytime I wanted to play? My friends said I can play on his account, but he's bought it off a keysite that requires Russian VPN and that saddens me

[QUOTE=loook;38825908]New Absolution update: - The disguise parameters on ‘Professional’ difficulties have been tweaked. - Difficulty adjustments[/QUOTE] Ooooh. Hopefully this'll make the disguises a tiny bit more useful. Also, does this game updating completely cripple anyone elses computer? It has happened to me twice now.

[QUOTE=PieClock;38825933] Also, does this game updating completely cripple anyone elses computer? It has happened to me twice now.[/QUOTE] Steam updates always do that to me. Desktop, Laptop. I wonder if my new desktop will have the same issue. Although I got two drives now.

[QUOTE=Daniellynet;38824993]Download game through VPN once and then play it normally? Should work based from what I understand.[/QUOTE] Region locked :(

I'm stuck. On the reception part of the attack of the saints mission I get spotted every time when I'm finished picking the exit lock. I stand up and the guards are alarmed, probably milliseconds before the mission ends:/

Speed running through the game right now because the goddamn savefile deleted itself as I was about to platinum it. Seeing how quickly I can complete levels while trying to get all the evidence in the game. Come watch! [url]www.twitch.tv/mythical_toast[/url]

I really enjoyed Absolution, but one thing I wish they would add is a mode where you do not get negative points for murdering/knocking out. I've been playing through with as much stealth as I go, but I want to play through the game again as pretty much a ruthless killer or at least with subduing people, but really, they should just give you 0 points for kills, 0 for knockouts, and the usual for hiding bodies, as opposed to negative points for everything that isn't 100% nobody sees you stealth. This game is based around 47 being somewhat emotional, detached, and no longer with The Agency, it really doesn't make sense that you should be penalized for knocking someone out, stealing their clothes, then hiding them.

[QUOTE=AaronM202;38847534]You're penalized for knockouts so you dont farm people for a bogus score.[/QUOTE] Which is why I said they should just give you 0 points. Really, I can understand negative points for killing. 47 may be a killer, but he is a hitman, he only kills his targets. But negative points for removing an obstacle in a non lethal way? At the very least, you should just not get any points for that.

I think it makes sense, "A silent assassin leaves the world around him untouched" If you want the best score you gotta avoid messing non-targets up.

[QUOTE=BloodFox1222;38847556]I think it makes sense, "A silent assassin leaves the world around him untouched" If you want the best score you gotta avoid messing non-targets up.[/QUOTE] I really don't care about getting the best score. I guess what I am really trying to say is, they should have a freeplay version of the levels with scores deactivated. I know that ending a level with a bad score doesn't really do anything, but it bothers me a little to see a negative score show up. I miss things like from Hitman Blood Money where you could massacre an entire map, and then at the end you would read the newspaper about how a ruthless killer ruined a party. I suppose when I go to replay, I will just have to forget about the score and play it the way I want to. In the end, its going to be the same anyways.

They really need an option to at least the disable score UI.

they should pull a contracts and remake bloodmoney on this engine with all its goodies. i've come to the conclusion that this game, while a pretty good game, is hardly the best of the series. there simply aren't any missions open or dynamic enough in this game. they don't exist, period. they exist in segments, but that's annoying as fuck.

The second part of that Absolution characters thing is out. It's very interesting, I suggest you people read it.

I replaced the court usher outfit with the DLC tuxedo. [editline]16th December 2012[/editline] Neato, I replaced the Adam Jensen disguise with the popped collar suit [t]http://cloud-2.steampowered.com/ugc/595863935793708776/388DCD8587FE959687739F804AB76F3B5D17EF21/[/t]

Hm, is the scar on his chin ever mentioned/explained?

Here's the download to have the popped collar suit replace the Adam Jensen outfit DLC so you can use it in contracts. Backup is included, just take the " -Copy" out. [url]http://www.wuala.com/DrDean/backup/Popped%20Collar%20for%20Jensen.7z/[/url] I'll do my best to make it replace something that isn't DLC if you can think of a shitty disguise that you don't use
