Learn about light switches, placing items in briefcases, lockpicking, firefights, in-mission saving, and mission ratings in Hitman: Blood Money Part 24.
This section covers various gameplay mechanics and tips for Hitman: Blood Money, including environmental interactions, item management, combat, saving, and mission evaluation.
Walkthrough
- 1Light Switches and Placing Items: Most rooms have a light switch that plunges the room into darkness when turned off. This can lure NPCs to the switch, allowing for stealthy attacks. Certain items like Briefcases can be used to smuggle other items past checkpoints by placing them inside.
- 2Lockpicking: Agent 47 can pick open most locked doors using a Lockpick. This action takes time and carries the risk of being seen or heard, so ensure no one is nearby. Lockpicks can be upgraded to speed up the process.
- 3Firefights: If combat becomes unavoidable, switching to 1st Person View can be advantageous as it resembles standard shooter controls. It's crucial to quickly pick up weapons from fallen enemies, as others may use them against you.
- 4In-Mission Saving: You can save your game during a mission, with the number of saves limited by difficulty (Professional difficulty does not allow saving). There are three save slots, and subsequent saves will overwrite older ones. These saves are temporary and disappear after completing the mission unless you choose to Restart from the Details screen. Be aware that saving with a specific weapon prepped (e.g., Sedative) might cause you to default to the Fiber Wire upon reloading; to avoid this, prep the desired weapon and then holster it before saving.
- 5Your Rating: After each mission, you receive a rating based on your performance, detailed across four pages. Key metrics include Total Kills and Shots Fired.
Tips
- When aiming in 3rd Person View, stand about three feet from your target (e.g., a box) and angle the camera to look straight down, ensuring the reticle is centered in front of you and between your feet and the box for accurate targeting when bringing out your weapon.
- In 1st Person View, stand about three feet from the front of the box and place the center reticle at the top of it.
- When picking locks, ensure you are completely alone to avoid detection.
- In firefights, prioritize picking up enemy weapons quickly to prevent them from being used against you.
- Understand that in-mission saves are placeholders and will be lost upon mission completion unless you restart.
- To ensure a specific weapon is prepped after reloading a save, prep the weapon, then holster it before saving.
