Hitman series Megathread - "Names are for friends, so i don't need one" - Games

[QUOTE=darth-veger;38526383]Also i am dazzled to see that so many people already finished the game and are like 'Well it was a good game, back to my other games'. I mean, you paid fucking 50-70 Euro/Dollar for it and waited so long :I[/QUOTE] Well the game's not very replayable unlike Blood Money. It's designed around the story and there's very few open levels that are worth replaying

I may be seriously seriously late here but I'm not gonna sit and search through all these pages to check. But did anyone notice the character from Kane & Lynch at the start of act 2 in the bar? I haven't even played Kane & Lynch but recognised him. As long as I'm not late i'll upload a photo. I just realised that there's something you do in the area which triggers a cut-scene so it's pretty obvious he's there anyway, damn, when I walked past him in the crowd I thought I might have been the first to spot it :(

[QUOTE=seroyal223;38528688]Well the game's not very replayable unlike Blood Money. It's designed around the story and there's very few open levels that are worth replaying[/QUOTE] Bullshit. I can't wait to go back and play a lot of the levels on Contracts mode after I finish the story. This has much more replay-ability in it in my opinion.

GTX worked again with beta drivers after dusting it off and re-installing it Max FPS: 31 Lowest FPS: 9 Average: 21 Graphic settings: 1080p MSAA 8x Texture Filter: 2x FXAA enabled Global Illumination and Tessellation disabled SSAO disabled The rest is all Ultra

[QUOTE=The very best;38525718]It's like people think blood money was the only hitman[/QUOTE] Blood Money was by far the best though. It's silly to say "well the first game was poorly designed too so it's okay". The series should get better with every title (which it did up until this point), not regress in a humongous way

Kane and Lynch and Agent 47 right next to each other. Pure awesomeness.

I'm sure I'll have a lot more fun with it then story mode, but imagine playing Contracts in Blood Money type levels instead

Is there a way to use guns, or outfits in the missions. I don't see an option too. Just looking through the DLC it occurred I see no option to even select load outs. Also do the abilities/perks you unlock become automatically applied?

By the looks of it, there's few people here with AMD cards. My HD Radeon 6850 is getting a pretty shit fps too. I've tried lowering all the settings down to Medium and I get no more than 30.

ugh, I hate how IO turned hitman into a metal gear/splinter cell mix with shitty pompous dime-a-dozen music Only joy I get, is stabbing officers in the stomach with scissors.

Luckily they confirmed a while ago that a different team is developing the next game, but I'm still worried that they won't take risks on this series again

[QUOTE=xianlee;38529031]my mate has a 6850 and he said he gets 50+fps maxed without tessellation, FXAA at 1080p. what processor / ram u got?[/QUOTE] I've got an AMD Phenom II X4 960T 3GHz and 8GB of RAM.

[QUOTE=GemuMasuta;38529098]I've got an AMD Phenom II X4 960T and 8GB of RAM.[/QUOTE] DDR3 ram? My mate has a shitty bulldozer processor as well (4120 or something iirc) I think its luck if it works fine for you, I know someone who is on an 3930k OC'd with xfire 7970s and crashes

God dammit, Contracts servers must be down or something. I really want to try it out as well.

I am really liking this so far. I like the cinematic story-driven story over the disjointed contract system. I still miss some charm from Blood Money, though. I really don't mind the disguise system either. It makes sense that you would trail after a suspicious looking bald guy you've never seen that coincidentally replaced your friend. I just wish there was some way for 47 to go "Yeah uh hi I'm new here" to not look like a super suspicious creep. [editline]20th November 2012[/editline] The only other gripe I have so far is the fact that you can conceal assault rifles and shotguns so easily. I liked the open-carry thing from the other games.

It's weird, whether I have Global Illumination on with SSAO or not, I still get the same framerate, in fact turning settings down seems to keep it at the same framerate or very close no matter what. I get around 45-46 FPS on average which I suppose isn't too bad, but I feel like I should be able to squeeze slightly more.

I went to three different fucking stores in my town, and no one had Hitman for the pc....

[QUOTE=xianlee;38529031]my mate has a 6850 and he said he gets 50+fps maxed without tessellation, FXAA at 1080p. what processor / ram u got?[/QUOTE] That shouldn't be possible since my GTX 670 gets 50-60 FPS maxed with same options except at 1680x1050. [t]http://i.imgur.com/mgjpD.jpg[/t]

[QUOTE=milkandcooki;38529937][img]http://i.imgur.com/GR42b.jpg[/img] Am I the only one who noticed this?[/QUOTE] I'm p sure IO themselves said that "E" is the change cover button.

[QUOTE=Rich209;38530037]I went to three different fucking stores in my town, and no one had Hitman for the pc....[/QUOTE] Do you live in Europe? They only produced retail in certain areas.

I'm looking forward to playing that "Attack of the Saints" level.

[QUOTE=EzioAuditore;38530209]I'm looking forward to playing that "Attack of the Saints" level.[/QUOTE] I feel like it may be the last/near end game level. The last missions in the series usually end up as a super intense shootout level which is hard to get silent assassin on.

Hi my name is police officer. I know what every police officer in this city looks like and I know for a fact you sir are not one of them while looking at you for half a second making silent assassin impossible. fucking shit balls
