So? The "actors" don't give a shit.

Is it that bad? I thought all the games were scripted.

Don't bother for the time being.

>>
>>331253565
I haven't had a single crash and I've put about 8 hours into the game so far, and haven't had any problems with my mouse either.
I'm running a high end setup so the video options don't really affect me though.
>>
>>331252345
There weren't smart phones 20 years ago. How did the actor get a phone that doesn't exist?
>>
>>331253565
>>Game restricts video options like resolution and texture/detail level based on hardware.
Wait, what? You can't choose resolution and detail level to max just to see how it looks no matter how low fps you'd get?

What.

Which might be the problem.
I'm running a 780 until pascal drops.

More than capable of running this game above 60 fps on medium at 1440p
It limits me to 1200p but puts everything on ultra? the fuck even is this thing.

>>331254720
Well I'm not getting amazing performance, even with my 980, i7 4790k and 16gb of RAM.
Doing 1080p with everything maxed and I'm usually on 75~ FPS, dipping to 50 at times.
But again, this is only on 1080p.

>>331251804
it's just an idle NPC animation that works for Paris, but doesn't make sense in 1992.

games still the best thing to come out all year and i don't even like the series. it's always been scripted retarded bullshit
>>
>>331252241
PDAs and blackberries didn't have touch screens.
>>
The game is astonishingly good, feels like blood money is back, and thats what I want out of hitman games.

Wish they had just released a single finished product rather than this episodic thing so it wouldnt get this backlash. Games solid, its a million times better than absolution.

>>331254675
I haven't encountered that and my computer is kinda shitty.
>>
So is the Paris mission also set 20 years ago or what? Hitman's timeline confuses the everliving fuck out of me

In Codename 47 he escapes from the Romanian sanatorium and then starts his assassinations for the ICA. At the end of the game he kills his creator.

Then we move forward to Hitman 2 where 47 has retired but goes back to work after his friend is kidnapped.

So far so good but then Contracts goes back in time to remake the missions of Codename 47. At the same time it seems to be telling a story which occurs after Hitman 2 and one that ties in with Blood Money with the Delahunt Paris mission

Thankfully the timeline problems seem to end there and Blood Money leads on to Absolution but now with Hitman 2016 it seems like we're going back in time to the point where 47 has escaped the Romanian sanatorium but there is a gap year between his triad assassination in Hong Kong and the escape. I guess that's where Hitman 2016 is supposed to occur?
>>
>>331256319
Paris is, from what i gather, set after the old games but before absolution.
>>
>>331252723
It's not, it just sounds cool.
>>
>>331256481
>>331256319
Paris is set October, 2016. Its on his plane ticket.
>>
>>331252241
Came here to say this, not using a stylus or anything tho
>>
>>331256319
Contracts was 47 remembering previous contracts, hence the title. It takes place between 2 and BM.

HTM's tutorials take place when he joins ICA, and the Paris level and I assume the rest of the game are present day.
>>
>>331255440
Do you even palm pilot?
>>
>>331258148
Actually, likely the new hitman takes place before Absolution.
>>
>>331258148
>>331256319
Also the "Legacy" trailers and cutscenes so far seem to show everything 47's done to this day, and the new antagonist is a product of 47's "legacy".
>>
>>331258232
I remember dev's saying it's canonically after Absolution. It feels like they're completely ignoring the fact it existed though.
I could see it working out that way though.
>>
>>331258435
Just how he looks, the things going on etc makes it appear it takes place before. Because it's sort of 47 in his prime. They said in a interview that exactly when certain events take place isn't set in stone.
>>
>>331254212
from the apple store
>>
>>331258540
True, he does look much younger than usual.
Idk, I'm hoping we can just get past Absolution and pretend it never happened.
>>
Could be a PDA which did exist 20 years ago.
>>
crack when?
>>
the game takes place 20 years from now.
the "20 year ago" segment is our present day :)
>>
>>331256319
From what I know its:
Codename 47 first mission
Hitman 2016 tutorial
rest of Codename 47
First mission (flashback) of Contracts (Contracts being mostly flashbacks of things that happened during Codename 47)
Silent Assassin
Blood Money until the opera
Last mission of Contracts (basicly the "present" timeline of Contracts)
rest of Blood Money
Absolution
rest of Hitman 2016

the simulation provides an accurate representation of reality
in every single acting scenario in the real world, there is always some modern technology/design/pattern/etc that's left in the movie somewhere

same applies here, it's pretty genius tbqh
>>
>>331264637
Its not a simulation of 20 years ago being done in the modern day. It is 20 years in the past. It would be like an actor showing up onscreen today with a hologram phone that won't be invented until 2036.
