The AI in this game sucks

[AmyDoseGaming]

The Ai in this game is dumb from a design standpoint.

On mission 3 i switched to a civilian desigse and while i was able to move in my 47 suit just fine everybody called the cops when i tried to dress like the locals. Next im trying to turn off a fan to lure away a waiter so i can get a key hes gaurding, but i cant do that cause just be cause i turn off a wall switch everybody around me acts the same as if i pulled out my gun and started shooting.

im done with this game. Hitman used to be an amazing series but this one is literaly unplayable.

^ This.

Have you turned the desigse up to 11?

The game explicitly tells you what will and won't cause suspicion and it's easier than ever to follow, honestly I feel the systems here work better than any previous Hitman entry. This is better than something like Silent Assassin or Contracts where moving faster than a slow walk would cause people to shoot you sometimes.

civilians aren't supposed to be messing around with electic boxes, you need an engineers disguise, they regulary go into a couple of little room dotted around the market where you can subdue them easily

[Klauth]

Well, OP, quite likely, the game is not for you if you can't figure it out.
It's trivial to guess what is gonna/not gonna blow your cover. For sure disguising in the open is gonna blow it, no ? Also tempering with equipment you're not supposed to touch ?

Or are you playing the first time with no ingame help at all and expect your god skills to run through it ?

And why a private profile ?

It's not the game's fault that you suck, OP.

See i dissagree i think blood money was a fantastic game. Also I have turrned off any and all help systems the game will let me. I hate when a game trys to hand hold you buy telling you what will happen if do this or that.

What im saying is with all of the people and things going on and the country on the verge of a millitary coup, flipping a light switch shouldnt cause everybody around you to act like you just killed someone in plain sight

1) i diddnt disguise in the open, I knocked out a civilain privatly and hid his body and took his clothes. what im saying is when i tried to walk around with those clothes everybody called the cops right away even though nobody saw anything.

2) Fliping a switch on a wall shouldnt have the same reaction as shooting your gun

3)My profile is private because i want it to be.

If your not going to produce a counter argument or add anything to the discussion then please dont reply at all. "Git Gud, You just suck" isnt an argument. its also rather childish.

I disabled handholding things like opportunities or instinct but I still want to know what my suspicion is or if I'm tresspassing. That stuff is told to you but you disabled it, kind of your own fault there.

Also I love Blood Money as much as the next guy, it is probably my most played game of all time but the disguise system there isn't as good as it is here. For almost every disguise in Blood Money it is a straight upgrade from a previous one, outside of specific events like being a clown or an actor, there was no reason to use an objecitvely worse outfit. You wind up spending 90% of your time in Blood Money just wearing a black suit with a black tie and black sunglasses because it is objectively the best outfit, and even the mission without this outfit still have objectively best outfits like the VIP waiter on the Mississippi or the CIA agent for the Party.

[Freezer]

In this current Hitman disguises aren't as simple as that, most outfits have some kind of area they can't go to or there will be way more people that seethrough it. It's a good tradeoff and I love this.

Also the idea of enemies seeing through your disguise was something I hated in Absolution but here it really does work well, the game tells you who will see through it and the few that can are strategically placed to be a challenge. It mean you have to think a little about your movement or you can switch to a different disguise. In fact the starting outfit has no such trouble since no one sees through it, it actually justifies playing suit only whereas before it was just a fun self imposed challenge. I would gladly take this to the actually dumb NPCs from Blood Money that don't put up any kind of challenge.

Ah, that's your problem then.
The main issue I have with this game is how it was designed to work arround some of the mechanics you've turned off.
Turning off the detection meter will make the game impossible basically. The Oportunities, Insticts and even the little balls that identify NPCs that can see through your disguise you can work without, but due to the changes in the disguise system you need something to tell you if you're getting spotted or not. Using a certain disguise doesn't mean you're invisible to everyonr wearing the same disguise, some specifc NPCs will still be able to blow your cover, and if they do, everyone in range will become alarmed. Which makes sense.

The IA isn't the problem at all. It's working exactly as intended.

So you calling the game bad just because you can't adapt to its mechanics is not childish?
Because if you'd pay attention to the hints given in the tutorial and the loading screen, not to forget the warning that doing something in the wrong disguise is considered suspicious or even illegal, you wouldn't have any trouble.
All of that is summed up in "Git gud".

You demonstrate a profoundly incomplete comprehension of both what an AI is and the hints and warnings that are oh-so-ubiquitous in this game.

Did you not NOTICE the exclamation mark "adorning" switches? Did you not wonder what it might mean? It means that using them WHILE BEING OBSERVED constitutes a suspicious action.

And NPCs don't rat you out becasue you "tried to dress like the locals." One of two things happened: A) You were observed in the act of changing disguises, or B) You don't know what the white circle over suspicious NPC's heads means: If you stay too close to them—or commit a suspicious action while they are looking at you—they will become alarmed.

You need to PAY ATTENTION. This isn't Ms. Pac-Man, buddy.
