I have had partial views like you mention for years now, and it doesn't make sense. It also does not matter how short or how long.

I never look at video stats if I can help it, it hurts my brain.

I do remember demos, I used to watch them all the time, before youtube. Mostly Return to Castle Wolfenstein league play matches. They were especially popular. Then you could also download the commentary by the guests as an MP3 and play that in sync with the demo. It took a bit of fiddling and a couple different programs, but it worked.

cool, I never knew about the mp3 commentary. Must have been exciting :) And I too loved to get my hands on demos for various games that I played. Well, now we've got YouTube, "all inclusive," meaning you can watch and listen and don't even need the game for it. :bigsmile:

Here, the new map and some "hands on" :anigrin: It's a long vid, OK, but that's due to being a) Master Difficulty (just one savegame during the mission allowed and there's more security, more cameras, more everything that's hard) and b) Suit Only and c) Sniper Assassin. Also, USUALLY you don't play Sniper Assassin AND Silent Assassin in a single mission. For the Sniper Assassin challenge you have to headshot all targets with a sniper and it is NOT required (actually because it is so difficult) to achieve Silent Assassin at the same time. So I combined the maximum difficulty with extra difficult challenges all in one go. Meaning, that's damn difficult and there's no margin for errors.

What you can't know but will now understand is at the end the "challenge wall" with all those classic challenges getting ticked off: Before recording this vid, I had only fooled around and collected quite a few challenges on the easiest difficulty, there are no cameras and the AI is almost blind and deaf. I then skipped the next (Professional) difficulty and went straight in on Master difficulty. The classic challenges (like suit only, sniper assassin and all that) exist for each difficulty. Getting them done on Master automatically unlocks them for lower difficulties like Professional so long as they hadn't been unlocked, which is what is happening at the end of the vid. That's why there are so many challenges getting ticked off. I like to do it like that because eventually I'd have had to do them on Master anyway, might just as well start with the highest difficulty and save me the trouble of doing all that *bleep* on lower difficulties, too. :anigrin:

I'm pretty sure you're going to like the first 2-3 minutes.. I came up with that when fooling around and found it both funny and cool so it had to be in a vid. Enjoy :)

Well.. she got me killed in Hitman 2016 (the only Elusive Target who did that to me) so I never had a chance to repay her. Until today. :evil2:

Lol at those soldiers, "Don't jump!" but eh, do whatever....

Took her long enough to find a place to vomit on though. You'd think in that situation any nearby potted plant would do.

The longer video from the previous post I'll have to watch later.

That ET is horrible in every aspect. She does not pick up any items under normal circumstances, she is being escorted by three soldiers and one enforcer sergeant when she's walking around the bazar so you can't get near her, she hangs out in a restricted area guarded by soldiers (where I hit her up with emetic poison) and the time window you can actually get to her when she is alone is very small. Where I injected her the first time, that escort would have shown up only seconds later. The waiter disguise from the shisha bar is about the only way to get there quickly and undetected.

I did test runs with various items (without killing her) so I found out that she'd end up being sick in that little storage room where I had been waiting for her in my vid. Well.. it worked :) Of course I could have used the deadly poison syringe right away but I wanted to really show her who's the boss :evil2:

Dweller_Benthos

At first I thought you were going to drown her in her own sick, make it especially fitting, but that doesn't w0#k unless it's a toilet, I take it?

Art Blade

indeed. You can't do anything special when they're vomiting into a rubbish bin (trash can) or anywhere else except a toilet bowl. Only the latter allows the drowning kill animation. :)

Funny getting them all in one room then gassing them, then snap their necks. That way you don't have to run around looking for them, they come to you!

And another one getting sick, I think you're liking that a little too much, hehe

about the previous vid ("a bitter pill")

As Diana is telling 47 at the start of the vid, there will be a lot of police in the building and surrounding garden. My timing was just nice so I could prevent the target from opening the door to those armed policemen and while running towards the exit, I take a look at the front of the house where you can see them still waiting for the door to open lol

Dweller_Benthos

Nice timing there. I also liked hearing snippets of the conversations along the way. If I played this game, I'd spend more time eavesdropping on all those than getting the mission done!
