How do you get the duck proximity mine? I saw it in that video but not sure how to unlock it.
For the food critic, I just waited until he went into the kitchen and chucked a knife from the storage room into his skull while he was berating the chef. I was going to do something fancy but decided that was all he deserved.
When you say breaching charge distraction do you mean having them pick it up and kill them on route to the weapon box? Nice job, my method I was doing before giving up was way different. I found a reliable way to get the saber in the school:
On the bottom floor run to the base of the stairwell that's blocked with stuff. Wait for people to pass and then chuck a noisemaker up on the starwell and activate it so the general officer guarding Zaydan's office gets it. Then immediately go up and grab saber from left side. Go to the outdoor area and chuck a coin in a alcove just in front of the APC that no one can see, stab him with saber. Then I go up and drop weapons or charges in the corners of the room with the other target, flip the breaker switch so both soldiers get up, get the weapons, and leave for a bit. Stab the officer target and drag him a bit behind a desk, grab the keys, jump out the far window in that room and then gtfo before the soldiers come back.
The last part is risky and where I messed up on, but I think it's doable.
Yeah, I've been exploiting the weapon box routes of guards a lot because of the predictability. I guess it's still slower than making your own way - good catch on the
APC alcove
!
I also just learned that for the officer target,
you can just push him on the early levels by turning off the power
. Now I wish there were a way to throw a bladed weapon hard enough to send the body flying out a window.
It should really be the level that takes the fewest runs because of how most things you can do aren't mutually exclusive. I spent 3 hours on my first run and got to level 12 or 14?
You shouldn't even need the crazy stuff like all fiber wire, dumping everybody in the slurry pit, or Wicker Man.
I played the first training mission and the Paris mission back... a long time ago. I remember back then turning some gameplay stuff off, but can't remember very well.
Anyway, I'm downloading the update pack now and in the meantime was playing the Christmas stuff. I noticed that to kill these enemies, I don't have many clues... right? Or am I missing something? I would like to turn off as many gameplay things as possible assuming the game doesn't simply break apart. I remember for the main story I could go through it without using the R1 view mode (the one that highlights enemies).
What things do you guys suggest to turn off on the gameplay menu that make the game challenging but doesn't break it or make it harder in an unfair way?

the most important is to set opportunities to minimal or off.
instinct mode in this game (unlike absolution) isn't bad, it does the job of the map in previous hitman games. everything else is up to you to turn off.
Perfectly timed my hits in Club 27 last night, where I
pushed Cross off the atrium roof, walked over to the other side and watched Morgan blow himself up starting the Tuk-Tuk.
I love it when a plan comes together!
Another Bangkok question though:
Is there any way to lure Cross into Heidi's room using the guitar? When Dexy is in the hallway drinking her wine, if I play the guitar she checks it out every time, but Cross always ignores me and just walks back into the garden. Is this how it's supposed to be, or am I missing something else to trigger this?

You cannot save and you are given one chance of killing the target (so failing means fail), but you can restart as long as you haven't died or killed the target.
No sympathy. The last few maps have been neglected and starved for content for far too long now. Time for the players who've been ready for months to enjoy.
I've actually rat poisoned her drink so Cross is alone, and he still ignores me. And when both of them are there, only Dexy goes into that room.
I'm trying to kill Cross with the katana, and I know I can just get the thumb drive and take him out in his own room, but ideally this way would be quicker.

I mean, I thought for sure they would do Hokkaido in January before the disc release and then Paris in February after the disc release for the new players! But instead it's the other way around.
Maybe not entirely, but it was a selling point for me after hearing my friend talk about it a lot. Of course, I didn't think "new content every month" meant "temporary content each month".

I play using DS4 (using DS4Windows) and I've never had that issue. I was going to say it sounds like the stick was accidentally pushed in a direction when you plugged it in and that was set as the default state, but since you've tried different controllers I can't imagine that being the case.
Okay, so, slight update. Tried again this morning and still had the issue. However, I installed DS4Windows and the controller itself is now working perfectly, (maybe it overrided a driver that was screwing the connection the game makes with the controller, I dunno) but the controller overlay and the prompts are an Xbox One controller. :/
There's no option to switch it to PS4 in-game, is there anything else I can do? Is there a profile to download or something on the DS4Windows front or do I have to just learn the Xbox One buttons?

Exactly what i did because i did not see any other opportunities. He doesn't eat, he didn't drink, he walks a very short path full of security... I wonder what others did.
I guess I should get around to trying to understand how the panic mechanics work:
- Most civilians and some guards can't enforce trespassing rules for a while when a fire alarm or explosion goes off
- Civilians panicking will run away if anything is thrown near them

That is indeed correct. Guards will enforce trespassing rules, but they will likely not spot you because they will go to the source of the explosion. In the case of the room where the stalker is, you are not actually trespassing until you actually enter the room, so the guards that would otherwise try to stop you are not going to notice you, since they are already going downstairs.
I was trying to figure out that video for a few days, but it never actually made sense until I saw your video just now.
Also, I just remembered that civilian "Super Enforcers" as featured in escalations like The Lyndon Gyration remain vigilant even while panicking, which also confused the issue for me. So there are technically different tiers of civilians... it just doesn't matter the majority of the time.
Can someone explain why you would choose the poison syringe, which can only be used once and can't be used in food or drink, over the reusable fibre wire? Is it quicker or something?

It was useless before. Now it's the single most powerful tool in the Hitman arsenal, except for maybe a breaching charge + fire extinguisher. What you forget is that the syringe counts as an 'unnoticed kill' now. This means that you won't have to hide the body after you poison your target and still get the Silent Assassin rating. With the fibre wire you still have to drag the body somewhere it won't be found.

I've been doing roulette runs lately, they should think about implementing this in season 2. It's really fun, in fact I'll probably only replay the missions like this from now on unless I'm going for challenges I need to mop up.
If they're gonna make a bonus Colorado map that's a non-military themed, what do you think would it look like? Methinks it's gonna be a rich farm with drugs underneath.

I'm loving this game, have spent a lot of time in Sapienza and am now going to move on to Marakesh. I've been trying some contracts out and they seem pretty limiting or am I missing stuff? Like I wanted to make a Paris level which is basically the Hitmas stuff Giantbomb was doing - Kill the woman as Kruger with a fire axe, etc. That kind of stuff isn't available as settings? Would love it if they could add these restrictions so that I can share them with friends, seems to be the only thing that's missing.

If you play other contracts you'll see that is possible... that's really the only thing you can adjust in contracts-Amount of targets, how you need to kill each one.
Over on Hitmanforum they just collectively realized that The Food Critic started a different route that opened up new silent assassin opportunities if you got rid of his bodyguard. It's just that almost nobody noticed.
The extra body container behind the bar must have been intended for dumping his guard, not him...

I just tried this and it gave me kill Soders by making the surgeon fail the surgery using the yoga instructor which I dont think is possible since you need the pilot disguise right?

Just bought this game. What would you guys reccommend as far as turning off/on icons/tooltips/opportunity icons and stuff if I want to go hard on the game but also still have...fun...?
