Nice to see a Paris elusive again.
That's two for each map so far.
I'm gonna get this one.

Exactly. Most people replay / experiment killing the SAME target over and over. There are only 2 targets on each map. With elusives that number jumps to 4-5 (maybe more?) and yet some people really don't want access to this content? I just don't understand how something being released 4-5 months later could tarnish your experience of the initial 48 hour playthrough. But different strokes as they say.
So you have to successfully take out 5 elusive's to get the suit, right? If you fail it doesn't count? That's hardcore. I messed up the first one but got the next two. I wonder how much different the Blood Money suit will end up looking from Absolution and the default black suit one.

I basically just walked in, saw them walking down the stairs, threw scissors at the guard, threw a knife at the prince, and ran out.
Not the prettiest hit, but eh.
I don't expect the elusive rewards to be particularly noteworthy. Unless it unlocks the Requiem suit for you all who didn't get it through the pre-order or whatever it was, because that suit is slick.

The thing about suits is that it's not like you're going to be wearing them for long in most runs anyway.
If you want some unprecedented unlocks that really distinguish "your" 47 and stay with you all the time, maybe we could have custom barcodes. It makes no sense, but it would immediately and constantly show that you are a player with distiguished accomplishments.

I believe a bat can be found in Sapienza. In the Sanguine shop, IIRC.

After losing patience, I just ended up running down the left side of the church by the water, knocking out the two guards, picking the lock, then shooting the target in the head from the door, then running to the boat. Suit only! Hah.

3/3 on Silent Assassin on these Elusives. I didn't wanna fuck with that church bell so I just played very patiently. Wasn't as hard as I thought it would be.

I've seen assault rifle, shotgun, and remote mine. I think that covers everything.
Edit: Just went back to the launch trailer to confirm something: the Marrakesh soldiers used to have helmets. I had been expecting an armor mechanic (preventing headshots, etc.) but it seems that must have been cut.

yeah that one is totally bugged, had it twice after this section right before he enters the school.
had to thrown around some stuff to reset the AI and make him continue

I was mildly amused by the citizens deciding they were holding invisible guns. But yeah, Marrakesh and that opportunity is botched to hell.
Still got two more level to get Mastery 20.

This week's escalation is hard.
Lol, yep! A bit of praying to the RNG gods in level 5 for the first target.

They do. Make sure you're selecting a Large Agency Drop, and not a Small one.
oh that's probably why, didn't notice that distinction

I finally crafted my Hitman cards on Steam and now have a 47 profile background.
Now everything feels right.

Film mission! Finally a use for the rest of Sapienza!

That sounds fantastic. Lots of Sapienza still to put to good use, and a night mission is good.
Considering they call it the half way point before the final three episodes, they're almost certainly August at the earliest.

Noting the release schedule we had with really late april and the absolute end of may, there was no way we were realistically going to get Ep 4 in June, as much as I would have wanted it. I'm okay with this, frankly, because I haven't given Marrakesh (or Sapienza, frankly) nearly as much love as it deserves.

It sounds like they've kept the same level geometry and changed around the whole scenario. Different opportunities, different missions, different everything. That doesn't sound exciting to you?
Cool, you can pay for them when they come out in a few months then?
These are new NPC layouts with new challenges and opportunities (aka things to do), not simple contracts thrown into the old missions.

I suppose that's why it's called "bonus".
You know how shows sometimes get filler episodes? They've literally designed a game with this in mind.
It adds a whole film set to Sapienza for example. New opportunities aswell. To me it sounds like they're smaller missions, probably like the 2nd tutorial in scale.
It depends from what they really changed, we'll see.

Nah, the blurb specifically mentions the town square.
The Sapienza Ruins are basically just a playground for long-range kills lol

True enough, I'm thinking (hoping) it will be a pretty substantial difference...but honestly so long as I don't have to dig into that damn underground lab all the time I'm fine with this.
Lol. I used to destroy the virus using the usb because that part is awful, but even by doing so you still need to do the morgue opportunity.

I hope this will be a free episode if you own Sapienza and Marrakesh. Seems a bit cheeky charging for this.

Oh, neat. A level I actually know really well! It'll be good to have an excuse to go back to Paris for a little while. I like that they're going back to the older maps. Now that there's a little stable of them it doesn't feel as bad as it did on release.
