Hitman 2: Silent Assassin also added an option for a non-lethal takedown, which you'd think would make the silent approach much easier, but in practice it hinders more than it helps. Unlike in the recent Hitman trilogy, here anaesthetised guards will eventually wake up, and, when they do, you're in trouble: because they will somehow know where you are.

Just got the game and completed the first tutorial mission a couple of times to try and see how the ranking system works in this game. I'm just wondering if anyone has an idea what the requirements are to get the highest rank - which I am assuming is 'silent assassin' - in a said level?

@Demoskinos: I think you are right with there being a score threshold. I just spent a couple of hours on the King of Chinatown mission, trying to figure out all the ways to assassinate the target. I think you get a lot more points for using a more indirect way to finish the guy like making it look like an accident. Using the piano wire or simply shooting the target only netted me Veteran rank, even when I got away unnoticed. But using some of the "tools" procured on site in the market (trying to keep the spoilers here to a minimum) got me an SA rank even with one unnecessary pacification. I think I even neglected to pick up the evidence on one of these runs and still got an SA rank. This was on hard difficulty by the way.

I was completely hidden in one mission, & only subdued one enemy silently (non-kill), & I got professional & not Silent Assassin. Out from that scenario I think it's a score based ranking, obviously doing it clean & doing miscellaneous challenges would grant more Points. I don't mind that because the Challenges in the game is a lot of fun to do. If I could sneak past all of them in suit only I would probably get Silent Assassin.

@Demoskinos: Ah, I knew that crane was for something! Yeah, basically be a ghost, subdue little to no one, and silently kill your target (or escaping). Achieving some in-game achievements grants you additional points to help you gain SA.

I'm guessing it's probably harder on the pure sneaking missions and such since you do not get that big 'signature kill' bonus if there is no one to assassinate. Maybe on these you either really need to go out of your way to complete as many of the extra objectives as possible or maybe you simply need to play them on expert or purist level.

I start a level. First section has no target. I move through the level completely unnoticed and do not kill or even subdue anyone. Proceed to second section, game tells me I have a target to kill, I do the exact same thing as in the first section, move unnoticed, kill no one, eliminate the main target silently (or via an accident) and complete the level. Fans of the Hitman franchise will recognize that in any other Hitman game this would have been a Silent Assassin playthrough.

Here's how H:A handles it: In the first section I am ranked Specialist (3rd rank). Second section; Silent Assassin (1st rank) My overall level ranking; Shadow (3rd rank). Why? Because points. I couldn't get the big 50,000 silent assassin score bonus in the first section because that bonus is only possible when the game gives you someone to assassinate. This basically makes getting Silent Assassin an achievement hunter rank in most cases because the only way to get it in the first section would have been to try and complete the majority of the challenges (many of which need to be done over multiple playthroughs).

Much like Dishonored, I played half the game as carefully as possible, desperately trying to get the most silent, non-lethal complete playthroughs before realizing I was not having any fun and actually missing out a big chunk of the new mechanics. I played the later half of those games not concerning myself with how my performance was being rated and instead just tried to have a good time. Both games became far more enjoyable at that point.

in past games, your individual performance was evaluated based simply on what you did or did not do. here, the devs opted for a scoring system that doesn't always take into consideration the subtleties of play. if you avoid all detection, don't kill/incapacitate anyone except your target (when available of course), and all kills should be made to look like an accident, that is a silent assassin rating, period. again, the scoring system doesn't seem to evaluate, as well, the individual performance like in previous games.

I agree. The game does look stunning at times and the engine works very well. And the more classic Hitman assassination style levels that are in the game, are a lot of fun to play. But at the same time I find it a little bit saddening as it makes you feel the game could have been so much more, if they had stuck with the classic formula and not concentrate so much on the more linear story-driven stuff.

Hey duders, the silent assassin rank does seem pretty random sometimes and I think it cannot be obtained at all in certain sections, I have managed to to do it of a few missions (including the Barber shop mission which seems to be troubling some people), I have made a few youtube videos to help (but obviously there are spoilers) at:

The best aspect of Hitman 3: Freelancer is customizing and enhancing Agent 47's home itself. While players initially only have access to an empty wall of weapon slots and a bunch of disheveled rooms and locked doors, after just a few missions they will have accumulated enough Mastery points to unlock new areas and decorations. Some of these are purely visual - what kind of table 47 has in his dining room, for instance, or what the pattern on his outdoor umbrella is - while others unlock new rooms containing items players can bring with them on assassinations. There's a surprising amount of depth to the safehouse, and even in the Closed Network Test it's clear it will take players quite a long time to unlock everything on display.

Some of these are purely for roleplay aspects, but there are multiple unlockable areas in Agent 47's home which have a tangible effect on mission-to-mission gameplay. Players are given a Gear limit for what they can bring on assignments, and any tools or weapons with a "rarity" can be stored at the safehouse for use later, whether in the current Syndicate campaign or a future one. In addition to this, there are also many items scattered throughout 47's house and the nearby woods which can be taken on missions and respawn indefinitely, such as a stethoscope in the infirmary (which works as a fibre wire) and a grape knife sticking out of a dartboard (which works as a knife). It's honestly shocking how much customizable land and hidden bonuses extend beyond the safehouse, and ensures dedicated assassins will have plenty to look forward to in January.

Although it won't be releasing for a few months yet, IO Interactive has already provided an impressive amount of content for players to excite themselves over. While a lack of variety in NPC targets and levels made grinding through Freelancer over the weekend feel a bit repetitive, taken at a normal pace (and assuming a larger amount of maps available) it's hard to not get excited about the future of Hitman. Players can customize Agent 47's loadout, clothes, and living quarters to create their own ideal version of what a high-level hitman's home should look like, and, personally, so far that includes a helicopter, a small dinghy, a nice convertible, classical music on the radio, and fishing between missions. Lots and lots of fishing.

Using disguises and hiding in plain sight played a big part in being as stealthy as possible. Additionally, Hitman 2 has a variety of ways to eliminate targets and achieve the Silent Assassin grade, from poisoning drinks, setting up traps, or sniping from a distance. Players can even run in and use an aggressive approach, but the reward comes in being the assassin Agent 47 is supposed to be.

Eidos Interactive, one of the world's leading publishers and developers of entertainment software, today confirms that Hitman: Blood Money will be released across PAL territories on 26th May 2006 on Xbox 360, PC, PS2 and Xbox.


 Hitman: Blood Money is the latest installment in the notorious assassination series, developed by IO Interactive, and takes killing for money to a whole new level.


 When assassins from Agent 47's contract agency, The ICA, are systematically eliminated in a series of hits, it seems a larger, more powerful agency has entered the fray. For Agent 47 it's business as usual, until suddenly he loses contact with The ICA. Sensing that he may be the next target, he travels to America, where he prepares to make a killing.
