Apparently it's not up due to "maintenance" issues for those unable to download it?

The Hitman Twitter account said it'd be fixed in the hour, so I guess I'll try at 8 AM. :3c

Looks like anyone who has The Full Experience on Steam doesn't currently have Episode 3, because someone forgot to add it to the Full Experience sub. Only people who bought the Intro Pack upgrade or Episode 3 by itself currently has access.

I seem to have a Problem.
I bought the full experience on release and have been able to download and play the Paris and Sapienza mission without problems.
The game has been updated on steam and I can see the Marrakesh Mission in my game but it's saying that I don't own it and if I wanted to buy it ?
Steam only gives me the option to buy it, not download it ?
Am I missing something here ?
Or do I have to wait until it unlocks for me ?

Edit: Seems like they are looking into it ! Just gotta wait a little longer I hope ! Thanks for the quick response guys !

I had that with sapienza, it simply means it's not unlocked, yet

Every new patch/episode = New issues.
Must be one of the worst handled PC releases in last few years.

Oh and:

Just installed latest 3.5GB Patch.

Game starting in wrong Hz and locking FPS when in Exclusive Fullscreen is STILL NOT FIXED. After more than one month, they did nothing to fix this!

Disgusting.

holy shit.

a) a previously 'dealable' shadow/lighting bug has become impossible because the bazarre is FILLED with some kind of lighting thing that absolutely decimates me. I need to figure out a fix for this

b) everyone in morocco speaking with flawless american accents ruins pretty much any semblance of atmosphere they were going for

Seems like the Title Update is available for PS4, but not Episode 3.

In fact, the game tells you to buy it, and if you go to PSN from in-game, the episode is not even available. I think this was a universal error, regardless of platform.

I feel like that happened with Sapienza, too, except the patch that showed it came a couple days before the actual mission.

That's how US PSN rolls, unless they pushed for a midnight release this was always going to happen.

Wait 8 or so hours and it should be settled.

I restarted Steam 3 times, and now as i verify integrity cache it seems the game is downloading something. Once its done i'll check to see if its indeed the missing Marrakesh level.
EDIT: 10 mins later after its done and it didn't work. :(

EDIT2:

Everytime I start a new mission it's like learning the game all over again. I just walked about and threw a wrench at a shopkeeper. The crowds are insane in this one though.

Must have been an issue while they were rolling out updates, I have just the full game version and I can play Episode 3 after it downloaded a 7 gig update.

I tried switching to DX12 version and it still seems pretty wonky though, stuck at 24 fps and having screen stutter issues when I alt-tab. Switching back to DX11 seems fine, I've played through episodes 1-2 with DX11 version.

One bad thing, the main menus with DX11 seem FPS uncapped, I am getting 250+ fps on a 970 whereas before I thought it was capped at 60. No problems in actual missions though, 45-60 fps but I'd be worried about GPU overheating if someone left the game at the main menu.

Marrakesh looks freaking amazing so far.

This shadow bug is killing me. I wish I could turn shadows off completely! Even on low low it's freaking out and flashing like crazy!!!

Which ones? the rubber duck and the extra items? those i think were preorder bonus. The chapters are obviously the chapters that are out so far.

Lol, i know about the episodes but they are the only thing i have, nothing was added for me, that's why i asked.

So you are getting bonus DLCs with each episode because you pre-ordered?

Now Steam is downloading a 3.8 GB patch after the 3.5 one. I mean, what the hell, IO doesn't even know how to properly patch the game, did they screw something?
Was the first 3.5 download an old build or what?
Also why I only own the requiem suit and not the silenced ica gun plus the duck?

Got 'em both. The shadows problem was driving me crazy. Managed to get the Banker alone but the shadows were completely going nuts in the school and I chose a poor hiding spot, so he walked right on top of me basically forcing me to toss a screwdriver in his eye and dive down a hole, luckily basically right where I had left an earlier disguise so I hightailed it out of there. Not the most elegant of kills, but it worked.

Now to see if these beta drivers fix the fucking shadows...

The 3.5 one was the general patch for everyone, the 3.8 is the actual episode.

Same here, with a 970 I reached something like 500 fps in the menu, also reported here and I think it's the reason my gpu, only with this game, rwaches 80c. If you check Steam community hub, a lot of people reported the problem, of course IO never fixed it.

Beta drivers fixed my shadow issues. Finally! But I discovered something... the crowds don't actually exist (as we knew)... so the guards won't hesitate to fire straight through them to kill you before the crowd panic AI even starts up.
 
Is this up for download yet on the PSN US store? I checked a couple hours earlier after I got excited seeing an update being installed. Turned out it must have been a standalone update and not the Episode. Do these download automatically or do you have to go into the PSN store to start the download?

Not out yet. Give it another few hours, should be soon.

Why on Earth would they do this? I thought devs learned their lesson after the first Assassin's Creed game, where Ubi got crucified for Altair's American accent.

Just finished my first attempt. Got a Silent Assassin rating which was nice.

From first impressions, I don't like it as much as Sapienza. Then again, that was a hard level to live up to.

This is probably the worst episode so far

I can understand why you think that. Your options definitely feel more limited, especially in regards to infiltrating the two target areas.

the patch fixes the fps issues I had in some areas in sapienza
so it's good to know they at least try to fix an episodes problem with the release of the next episode

Infiltration was hardly the most creative part of Sapienza, was it? You basically get in through the front gate, the cliffside, or the safehouse. Or reverse-infiltrate from the lab or ruins later on.

In this level I'm already seeing options like the
consulate side door
or the
sewers
as potential entrances. And that
luxury hotel next door
has to be good for something.

I wouldn't mind the same voice actors if they at least had them made some different voices. Like come on, I know that one dude that does most of the voices in the game has more range than this.
