Anyone played Hitman:Codename 47 ?

[Cable God]

It seems I have gotten addicted to the wanton violence..... Hahaha, I like it. Great game and looks beautiful on my system.

 

[konichiwa]

Is it good? I have it, haven't played it yet. Isn't it the one that uses the HL engine?

 

[Cable God]

I don't know if it uses the HL engine, but I do know it looks and plays totally awesome on my setup. I do know that gunmen chronicles uses the HL engine but not sure about this one. I would highly recommend trying the demo from ant.com

 

[Cable God]

well, I am off to play it more gotta have more............

 

[konichiwa]

Ahh yes, that's the one...Gunman Chronicles. Is HM:C47 multiplayer?

 

[vi edit]

That's the one with the naked fat man in the shower get capped right?

(I saw that on the cover of the box of all places :disgust

 

[PistachioByAzul]

It doesn't use the HL engine, it uses it's own. Definitely one of the sleeper hits this year.

 

[Vikaden]

Any hints or tips places, the only person i can kill is the chauffer, if I try to kill anyone else they always shoot me so fast

 

[PistachioByAzul]

Wait 'til the chauffer goes to take a piss and no one is around, then slit his throat. Take his clothes and go put the car bomb in the limo. Wait for the guy to come out of the restraunt and get into the car, then blow it up. Go get the sniper rifle in the alley and when there is no one looking, take out the guards at the end of the block.

Dammit EngineNr9, just from that little description that you gave, this game already sounds awesome. Crap. I have to buy another game

 

[Narse]

is one good games just remember when you are playing it, be QUIET when you can

 

[Champo41]

Download the demo. That was enough for me to go out and buy it.

I agree that it will be a sleeper hit.

 

[Wah]

don't forget to put the drivers body next to the storm drain where he takes a piss. Take his clothes and unload a clip or two into his body so that he falls in to the sewer.

no its not a hidden trick or anything... it just looks cool. Try it.

 

[beat mania]

I like killing people with piano wire

EngineNr9: man, just make me wanna play this game.

 

[FatAlbo]

No need to mess with sniping the guards in that mission. I've found it easier to detonate the car bomb when the limo gets to the guards. What's fun is trying to snipe that guy in the helicopter.

 

[Wah]

Play the whole demo using just your silenced pistol. I started doing that when I played the same mission over and over again.

 

[The Wildcard]

I played the demo and it got quite choppy when the entire red dragon gang or whatever was looking for me because the computer had to control all of them and plus the civilians. I wonder if it's my cpu or vid card. got a CEleron 566 @ 850mhz on a Tnt2 ultra.

 

[dc]

yeah, same here. engine for that game sucks. =)
and the controls are crappy too.

 

[mosdef]

The controls are not as bad as you think, I use the WASD format and it works fine. The fact that there are both run and walk is what throws the controls off a bit.

I am on the level where you have to take out the cocaine drug lord.

Btw, if anyone wants hints I found that this site is excellent: http://home.hitman-codename47.com/

Also, new Hitman - Codename 47 patch

[PistachioByAzul]

If it's choppy then it must be your graphics card.

BTW, you can press '/' to use a more traditional 3rd person control mode.

 

[The Wildcard]

Have they implemented inverted mouse option yet? That was my chief complaint and i hope it is the video card's limitation.

 

[BrightRed]

I've a semi-ancient system which I should be upgrading soon.

The current setup is:
p233, 224mb, Riva TNT 16mb

Will this game even run on my machine?

Pls give any thoughts.

 

[konichiwa]

I've been playing this game all day today. Wonderful game, it's got me nerveracked.
