Hitman 3 Patch 1.12 Notes (1.012.000) – July 26, 2022
NEW CONTENT: Ambrose Island
Ambrose Island is a new location that is free for all HITMAN 3 owners.
Embark on a new adventure with Agent 47 to a secluded island in the Andaman Sea, where rogue thieves and a dangerous pirate syndicate are plotting a daring heist.
NEW ADDITIONS
Game Settings Preview
We’ve added a visual preview widget to all Gameplay settings in the Options menu, including HUD, minimap and interactions.
As you toggle between on/off and other choices, the widget will update for each individual selection. Where it makes sense, there are also animations to mimic the gameplay experience.
PC: Nvidia DLSS 2.4.3
We’ve officially deployed DLSS version 2.4.3 with the July patch. We were intentionally using version 2.3.2 since the May Patch because we were aware of some visual issues with version 2.4.3.
Elusive Arcade Tweak
We’ve made a back-end change to Elusive Target Arcade, which allows HITMAN 3 owners to play all existing and future Arcade contracts, regardless of their ownership of HITMAN 1 or HITMAN 2. Previously, players were required to own an ‘Access Pass’ for HITMAN 1 or HITMAN 2 to access the relevant Arcade Contracts.
This change allows us to create Arcade Contracts that are not restricted to targets from the same game. We’re now able to pick and choose from the full roster of available Elusive Targets to create more variety and themes. You’ll see the first of these appear in-game starting in August.
PS5 Activities
We’ve made changes to the ‘Activity Cards’ for PS5 users, so that more relevant ones are shown based on what you own.
FIXES AND IMPROVEMENTS
Stability Improvements
We’ve improved general stability across all platforms by addressing several issues that could cause the game to crash or freeze.
Unlock Access
We’ve resolved an issue where players would be unable to obtain level mastery or item unlocks if they encountered a server disconnection whilst transitioning between levels, restarting, replanning, exiting to menu or finishing a level. We’ve tweaked several things to prevent this in previous patches and this additional change will make the chances of it happening even smaller.
AWOL HUD
We’ve resolved an issue that could cause some elements of the HUD to disappear if players save their game whilst the mission name / location is displayed on-screen in the opening seconds of a mission.
Note: This fix will only impact Steam and Epic players, whilst the issue remains for other players. Our next patch will fix the issue for everyone else.
Side Flash
We’ve resolved an issue with theHWK 21 Covertpistol, where the muzzle flash was extremely bright and not aligned with the barrel.
She’s Stopped Gurgling
We’ve resolved an issue where NPC’s could get stuck in an endless animation loop after being injected with a sedative syringe.
Ashen Six
We’ve updated the description of theNumber Six with Glovessuit. Just in time.
Tropical Sheen
We’ve resolved an issue where theTropical Suit(Haven Island unlock) was waaay to shiny.
Chongqing Conceal Crash
We’ve fixed a crash that could occur when concealing an item in a trash can, whilst taking cover in a particular location in Chongqing.
Anti-Social
We’ve resolved an issue where the lawyer in Mendoza was holding his phone upside down and the wrong way around.
Photographic Destruction Prevention
We’ve resolved an issue that could prevent players from earning the Silent Assassin rating in the Dubai campaign mission. Specifically, players who were spotted by a camera and then disabled the cameras via the server room terminal would then be unable to ‘erase recordings’ through the ‘normal’ camera recorders.
Meeting Room Master
We’ve resolved an issue where players would be immediately spotted when starting at theMeeting Roomin Dubai on Master difficulty level.
Lust Keys
We’ve resolved an issue where players were unable to pick up keys during theLust Assignation Escalation[7DS].
Most People Never Notice
We’ve ended the conspiracy theories in Berlin and removed the barcode from the back ofGuestList Man’shead, aka Ziegler. He was never part of Ort-Meyer’s army and now, he never will be.
FSP Audio
We’ve resolved an issue where the menu music would not resume after viewing a cinematic in the Free Starter Pack.
World of Assassination Fixes
Hokkaido: Snow Festival Suite
We’ve resolved an issue where it wasn’t possible to start the mission inTobiasRieper’sSuite. Now, this starting location will be unlocked by default.
Stingray: VillaVision
We’ve resolved several issues that could cause NPCs and (especially!) targets in Haven Island to see through several walls and floors. This was a complicated and tricky issue to address but it seems to have been caused by anAI vision blockerin the door template for this level.
Essentially, whenever NPCs opened a particular door type, they were able to see everywhere within the mansion, regardless of how many floors or walls were in the way. This was especially troublesome if Tyson Williams was involved, because his character animation has him looking down frequently, which meant he could spot 47 several floors down.
Note: Unfortunately, this issue will only be resolved on PC with this patch, and will be included in our next patch for all other players.
WhittletonCreek: Bitter Pill
We’ve resolved an issue where the laser security wirescouldtrigger an alarm,even after players disabled the alarm system. This was occurring after players performed a save/load cycle.
