The Drop: First Impressions

It is dystopian to write about a video game when real places run red. I get to write about fake murder while the people of Gaza experience genocide.

I am not confronted with atrocity. I must choose to confront it. This is a privilege many will never experience.

I live in a safe place. I have my favorite food. My family is well. Tonight, I went out with colleagues for some drinks after work and I came home and played The Drop.

I am lucky.

I've been playing Freelancer so long I almost forgot how it feels to play the main game. Diana's squeamishness at Alexios' methods is almost laughable considering what 47 gets up to. We love a delulu girl.

I like how they changed the music for Berlin - I presume this is the real DJ Dimitri Vegas. However, I'm not sure about the sound design. It was very difficult to hear Alexios speaking even when I was right next to him, and I also had trouble hearing Diana.

The addition of fire was a nice touch, it made the dancefloor feel different to before. Also pretty cool how the right side of the upper level above the dancefloor was open to the public. I'm not sure why that choice was made, as it would be harder to get to Alexios without the change. Still, it's always nice to see familiar maps switch things up. And with the new art here it really felt different.

I followed Alexios around for a while and although his loop of the upper level is pretty small, there are lots of opportunities to get him. Diana also suggests getting the vodka he wants or dressing as his bodyguard. I decided to go down to Hirschmuller's office to get his outfit. It was cool to hear new VO for him! But Diana trying to tell 47 there's "quite a resemblance between you two" - excuse me?!

I approached Alexios as Hirschmuller and enjoyed the bit of dick-waving we got into before heading to the VIP bar. From there it was a simple case of clearing the room, killing him, and hiding the body in the container behind the bar.

The Greek Fire reward outfit is not really my cup of tea but I'll probably have 47 wear it while lounging in the safe house.

Overall it was a disappointingly easy silent assassin but it's always nice to go back to Berlin.

Dimitri is my very first Hitman 3 Elusive target. But lucky me: not once,not twice, but THREE times in the same run I’ve tried to get him to drink a poisoned vodka— but the game’s “SERVE” option is so awkward and twitchy and needs one or two of those allergy pills from the dealer!!! Fahk it, I’ll silently put a hole in his head and run since time is almost up lol.

Contract Type: Elusive Target

Target Type: Elusive Target Concept

Location: The Final Test (Greenland)

Diana's Briefing: "47, this is urgent. ICA has been compromised. A private investigator working for the shadow client's private militia has breached one of our facilities. Our training grounds, specifically the recreation of the Jasper Knight operation, have been infiltrated by the PI. His name is Valentyn Yuko, an Eastern European master of his craft.

He is wanted in Belarus and Russia for attempting to leak state secrets, having spent his early adulthood in the military. He has jumped from nation to nation, working for less than scrupulous clients wanting even less scrupulous information.

Jason Portman, Kronstadt, Ether, and even Erich Soders have all requested his services. Now, his most recent client is the militia, who plan to reveal the ICA's existence to the world.

The ICA has sanctioned this contract. The guards are still using live rounds and another potential operative's training is underway. Valentyn will be in disguise, so keep an eye out for anyone acting unusually as we have no physical descriptions or available information other than the fact that he entered from the hangar. Perhaps that point of entry could help you track him.

Nobody can know we've been compromised, least of all the militia. A select few people know of the breach, so guards will shoot if they believe you do not belong. Be careful 47, this is a delicate operation. I'll leave you to prepare..."

Target Intel: Despite not knowing what he looks like, Mr Yuko has left quite the digital footprint. Born in Belarus some time in the 80's, he joined the military relatively early in his life. On a joint-training operation between Belarus and Russia, he attempted to steal the Russian state and military secrets in the office of the general watching over the operation. It is believed he was aiming to sell them to the late Sergei Zavorotko, whom I'm sure you know well. Sergei's crimes were only uncovered upon his death, though Valentyn's were discovered immediately. He was arrested but escaped custody and became wanted across several nations over the years. He has worked for countless clients and backstabbed half of them, freely switching sides to whoever pays him more (Though, the ICA would rather not take their chances with that). He almost never takes a small job, presumably because of his pride as it has been noted that he has refused jobs from high-profile clients simply because they were "too small". He has made stops in Turkey, Poland, Kazakhstan, Romania, Bulgaria, and Hungary, though his last stop will be Greenland, where the footprints end and ours never appear.

Target routes and behaviors: Valentyn Yuko is initially disguised as an airplane technician and inspects the whole room, ending with Valentyn snapping a photo of the jet. He finds a guard disguise and patrols the rest of the compound, frequently looking over his shoulder. If the player gets too close behind him when he looks over his shoulder, he'll take the most efficient route to the nearest disguise. If the player keeps following him, he becomes an enforcer for the player's current disguise. He'll photograph Jasper Knight, the KGB officer, the vodka, the model escape car, and force himself into what were originally mission story conversations.

If the alarms are sounded, or the target is alerted, he'll attempt to flee the map. If he escapes, the mission will fail.

If the player photographs him taking pictures, then talks to the KGB officer, the officer will interrogate Valentyn in the isolated radio room, allowing for an easy elimination if the player can slip in during the brief window of opportunity while the KGB steps out of the room. If not, the KGB officer lets Valentyn go.

If the player finds the agent-in-training, he can watch him set his mission details down and forget them. This is Agent Davenport pre-Berlin. You can swap out his papers and make him believe Valentyn is his target when Davenport returns. He will find a drink and put emetic poison in it and Valentyn will get sick when he drinks it. Davenport will lose track of Valentyn, meaning it's up to the player to find and eliminate him while he's still sick.

I decided I wanted to be creative today, and thus I do not look up any sort of guide or strategy on the current Elusive Target in HITMAN 3. I also opt to use the RFID Explosive, which I never have before.

I then discover that if you EVER seperate the trigger and explosive for a second, it will arm if you pick up either one, even if contained in a briefcase (a strategy often employed with other remote devices), after I’m hoisted by my own petard. In a far too appropriate manner, as well. And there’s videos of people cheesing it and getting a perfect kill in 30 seconds..

Goddammit..

Hitman is literally broken. Killed Philip Giggles and the guard at the entrance to the party is stood in the wrong place. I cannot show him the pass to get in and any attempt to enter leads to automatically being trespassing. Sigh, why does this shit keep happening? I really don't want to have to wait twelve hours to try this shit again.

from naoki urasawa’s pluto

while this was a commentary on the american forces in iraq, this feels very relevant still. the use of an elusive mostly imaginary target gives them an excuse to exact violence upon civilian life

The one thing I hate (and love) about Hitman is asking why certain things aren't done and immediately realizing it would be a terrible game play idea.

Example:

I am trying to finish Silent Assassin Evasive Targets and the easiest way is with a trap, and I kept looking in game then finally looked online and found out they don't have the oil canister or water canister in it.

Then it hit me that this would game the game stupidly easy with the microtaser and either canister pour it on their route, and just wait, because however they die it counts as an accident.

Yea I'd love it, but I am a gamer that likes to find optimum routes and time myself and it would make this unfunnily easy. Even if I didn't I'd think it would be not fun.

So thank you IOI. I love you and hate you, and even the hate is affectionate.

India's Ambitious TB Eradication Target : Realistic Goal Or Elusive Dream? - IMPRI Impact And Policy Research Institute

Tanu Paliwal Abstract  With two deaths occurring every three minutes, India continues to top the globe in TB prevalence.

I'm fairly certain that the reason Dimitri Vegas is called The Drop is because he has a song with that title. It's a short (if repetitive) song but the beat is really good.

Which makes me wonder if the song will play during the level? Maybe not, because the licensing would probably be expensive but you never know.

Also I'm wondering what Vegas did in the Hitman universe that made someone take out a contract on him. Looking forward to that briefing.

Hello Anon!

It’s entirely possible that they could use the song “The Drop” in the game, but I think it would be more likely that Vegas will have created an exclusive track for Hitman, something they could use that’s free of pre-existing licensing issues. (If that’s the case, I do wonder if they’ll make the new song available for download like they did with music from The Class).

As for the motive behind the contract, I have a theory based on the following quote from IO’s announcement:

"Dimitri Vegas will take on the role of “The Drop” – a DJ-turned-drug impresario bent on controlling the scene one way or another"

I think it’s fair to say that most of us are expecting this to take place in Berlin (though an entirely new mission location would be cool). Berlin, being a remote club scene with a biker gang’s drug factory attached to it, makes me think Vegas is working with with the bikers in some sort of mutually beneficial deal. It’s possible the narrative will be something like Vegas mass-drugging his crowds at his performances, but it could also be as simple as “you make the substance, I’ll bring you a crowd of buyers.”

After watching the fog machine use in his recent Tomorrowland performance, the mass-drugging theory may have more credence, especially considering the giant fans near the DJ stand in Berlin could be used to disperse something. With all that being said, I think the client behind the contract could be a competitor in the music or drug business, or possibly even families of victims who succumbed to the ill effects of the dispersed substance at one of his shows.

I do expect The Drop contract to have at least one method of falling object accident—maybe a meetup near the crane or one of the neon displays? Maybe even a new asset? We’ll find out later this fall :D
