weird, probably bug.
Regarding the poison, I thought the syringe that is the spawn option can't be used to actually poison a drink?

It probably won't be long until the bypass is found by someone but it's possible to do mission without hitting any of the wires. Just watch out for the cameras at the front entrance to the mansion when you're escaping.

I have an option to spawn with poison outside of the syringe. It's the same one that Dalia gives you.
Oh right that sounds horrific, It's been fine for a few days for me, been able to play for long sessions, then got booted out today in a really bad moment.

So I just found the vampire magician outfit. Shit is funny.
You can simply disable the cameras by sabotaging the area where the recordings go in the basement, too.

They should make a costume that makes everyone on the map suspicious. The ultimate challenge.
I don't think this is correct. You unlock a sedative but it isn't lethal poison. I think they did this because it would make it too easy if you had lethal poison all the time.

I should have been more specific. What I find unrealistic is that you can hang or climb as long as you want, plus that you can jump sideways and yet not rip open your suit.
Weird, I have Paris Mastery 20 and I don't see it :/

Really? In game pic is the same and all. That's weird.
Edit: Bernardo, maybe you have Sedative Poison Vial. Seems I was confused.
I've tried poisoning the cocktail for Victor with the sedative and it juts puts them to sleep. The same happened to the bodyguard when I poisoned the sushi. It seems like the only way to use lethal poison is to use the stuff Dalia gives you. That's what unlocked the lethal poison feat for me. Dalia went down instantly.

Ah okay, gotcha. Name definitely confused me as I haven't used it yet.

New Escalation Mission in Paris does. Hahaha.
Kinda a bummer that to be able to kill Victor directly with poison you have to do the whole Kruger thing with Dalia first.

Same and same. Weird. I've got s poison syringe but no standalone poison. Though I have a bunch of unlocked weapons whose fucking images won't even load. I had to guess on which one is the sniper rifle, haha.
I can't complete some challenges of the Paris mission because they won't register. This is disappointing indeed.
Good Lord I love this game. 35 hours already. Not even a week after launch and in halfway to the total time I spent on Absolution. And there's still 6 episodes to go! So much for what people were saying that would be "not enough content. 6 episodes is way less content than Blood Money !" lol

Don't know if this is what happened, but a lot of the feats and challenges don't seem to register if you load a save from a point after you've fulfilled the requirement for the challenge. As an example, I saved after introducing myself to Dalia as Mr. Reaper, then killed her with the silenced pistol and didn't get the challenge, but loading a save just *before* introducing myself as Mr. Reaper and continuing on to finish the level worked fine.

You cannot load saves during Escalation.

Ahh, I didn't read it right, I thought you were just referring to a regular old challenge.
Damn, that sucks man. :/
What's baffling is I got the trophy for doing a Paris Escalation. Will the fact these didn't get checked off as Feats make them not count to the Escalation unlock count?
It's like every time I play this game, there's something about the online that literally smears my interest.
Yeah, its really weird they haven't fixed them yet. At the very least fix the damn timer bug.I just did a great level 5 escalation, but how is that fun with the ruined leaderboards

Exactly.
It's just frustrating because it seems like completely logic-breaking artificial difficulty. This huge event with dozens of employees moving all over the place has explosive laser tripwires all throughout the place, and yet if you knock out a security guard or employee that YOU'VE SEEN walk through the tripwires, they don't have a bypass on them. You have to find ONE placed there just for you somewhere in this huge place. I know it's a high-level difficultly mission in an optional side mode, but it just feels unfair and stupid. I can't even figure out which starting position is actually doable.

Yep. This happened to me when I did the Training Mission Escalation. It says I completed that feat, but after going back to the main menu it was back to unchecked. Thankfully I only had to do the Level 5 run again to get credit, but still annoying.
Had more server trouble on PS4 last night, after things were pretty smooth for a few days. Good lord, navigating through the list of challenges can be sooooo sluggish. Using the menus in general is pretty painful. I really hope they get this figured out by the next release.

Maybe they have chips implented on their skin.

It's in the same room as the laptop you have to hack. It also happens to be in a safe. The key to the safe is in the basement (a different one to the master key). It's entirely possible to do the mission without it. The only benefit I found was it enable me to walk out instead of having to shimmy along a ledge.
Just started for the first time on PS4 and I don't have the DLC preorder items. Seems like a known issue as a result of the 1.02 patch. As best I can tell from looking at the related items tab for the game in the PS store, the items are installed but just aren't actually there in the game. Only thing to do is to wait for IO to address the issue?

I played the whole Escalation Mission using the Kitchen as my starting point. There is also a device there inside the security room also inside a safe.
Eh, can you not live some unrealistic gamey elements for the sake of interesting new challenges? It's not that difficult, might require some trial and error like a lot of parts of the existing game.

How on earth did you get in there? Aren't there tripwires covering all the entrances to that room? Don't tell me the fuse box turns them off or I'll feel like a right plonker.
they give you a different target and a set of rules (like, kill them with a pistol while dressed as a guard) but you have to do it 5 times and each time they add another thing you need to do that makes it more difficult.

Why does he wear the mask!?
ooo that sounds quite cool, will try it later

Only one side is covered with tripwires. I went outside and managed to enter from the other side. I destroyed the computer recording the cameras as well.

fucking bullshit how the game just kicks you out when Squeenix's servers crap out. and escalation mode doesn't even let you make manual saves.
and where the hell did my Requiem suit and explosive rubber duck go?

The 1.02 patch broke them on PS4.
