    Нет русского языка, нет в Steam. Плевок в СНГ комьюнити. Я разочарован.

    5 days after launch still can't "fetch profile". Unable to play the game because the devs make a single player game always online. It becomes a problem when your servers don't work at all. Many players with the issue, so far no apology and no timeframe for a fix. It's disgusting. Don't buy this game until this issue has been formally addressed

    Where too start? Bought the game at launch but couldn't play it for 3 days due to IOI's crossover wesbite being down and their servers being unprepared.

Bought the game at launch but couldn't play it for 3 days due to IOI's crossover wesbite being down and their servers being unprepared. Had a nightmare of a time trying to bring my progress from Hitman 1 & 2 over to Hitman 3. The servers are still on and off. A single player game shouldn't require an always online internet connection. Also had 6 or so hard crashes where the game would freeze and crash. The HDR is also broken. The game itself is pretty short and not worth full price. They say 6 levels but its really just 5 and a silly little train level that the Reddit crowd have been asking for for years. The 5 main levels are big open worlds with lots to explore and do, however, just like the last 2 games in the series, they still lack that magic of the old Hitman games. It looks pretty, but its not a next gen game. This game looks very much like the last 2 Hitman games did on the older consoles. The story is just silly and very anticlimactic. But then the story has never been a strong point of the Hitman games, its all about the gameplay. Gameplay hasn't changed much at all from the previous 2 games. You now have a pointless camera that you don't even really have to use 99% of the time. Some doors and ladders that you break locks on to give yourself easier access next time you play each level. That's pretty much it. None of he stuff that fans have been asking for years has returned. Stuff like Jesper Kyd, weapon customization, sniper rifle and briefcase animations, human sheild, dual weilding, ability to climb witht he briefcase, more blood splatter, newspapers etc. They still haven't listened to fans on any of that. The levels from Hitman 1 and 2 got an "upgrade" for next gen systems, hoever they seem to be full of bugs that didn't exist before. Sound is broken with audio cutting in and out abruptly, sound missing entirley. I walked into a room full of people and there was no sound at all. They also have visual glitches that weren't there before. For example it was snowing like a black snow inside a building that wasn't there before and had no source or explination other than it was a glitch. Some levels are now totally missing in the next gen versions. The Christmas missions Holiday Hoarders and the Hokkaido Snow Festival. Those have been removed from the game entirley for some strange reason. They were made permanent before. The upgraded versions don't really add much other than audio and visual bugs, broken lighting, some new trees in some levels, and a few reflections on the floor. That's pretty much it. I'd personally stick with the old versions and don't upgrade. Game design isn't that good either. For example, your loadouts are more restricted in Hitman 3. You're forced to start with no weapons or tools and have to wear an outfit that they want you to wear. It doesn't make sense half the time. One nightclub mission it says i can't add a gun to my loadout as i have to enter the club with nothing. Yet 2 seconds later you have to kill an enemy and take his silenced pistol before you get to the nightclub anyway! So why not just let me take what i want as i want. Some levels have less replayability as a result. One Manor level they put an enforcer on the front gate right at the start so you are left with just 2 points of entry, jump over the wall on the left or jump over the wall on the right. Its a pretty washed out looking game too. I've seen a lot of people complaining how washed out this game is across all versions. Even when switching the broken HDR off. The Manor level and end leven in paticular, they have a whited out washed appearence to them. It even makes the black levels of an OLED looked like a washed out cheap IPS LCD TV. If you've played the first 2 in the series and liked them then you will probably like this 3rd and final part in the trilogy. However, if you are a fan of the old games and didn't really much like the new ones, this 3rd installment won't do much to change your mind on the trilogy. I kind of wish i had waited for all 3 parts to be finished before i bought them. That would have been better i feel. But even then i don't think they hold a candle to the old games.… Expand

    How can I give it any score? It's unplayable and won't connect. If I play without connecting I will lose all progress when they fix the servers. An unplayable game is **** useless to me.

    This game is too expensive for a 4-5 hour campaign. It is exactly the same game as the last 2. The greedy developers are basically charging $60 for an expansion pack.

The greedy developers are basically charging $60 for an expansion pack. The missions are so boring and repetitive. The aiming is trash. The AI is incredibly stupid. The physics are beyond horrible. The attention to detail in this game is extremely pathetic for a AAA game. When I shot one tube light, the other one dropped too and both of them magically fell through the floor. The mirror magically cracked when I shot it with one bullet, it reminds me of GTA Vice City when shooting the windshield of a car. It's embarrassing seeing this PS5 game have the attention to detail of a PS2 game.

    The story is terrible. The animations are garbage. The lazy developers copied and pasted the same animations when hiding enemies inside those bins. Also, there is no multiplayer. So once you beat the story, there is not a reason to touch this game again. Charging $60 for a game with no replay value is a cashgrab. To make matters worse, the greedy developers took down the Hitman 2 multiplayer mode. I recommend you don't buy this game and just wait for it to be free on PS Plus.    … Expand

    This is the buggiest mess I've played. Bodies bug around everywhere and the Npcs can see through every wall. This game is not playable at the slightest. I couldn't even beat the first level due to the Npcs seeing through the wall and shooting me and once I almost did, the game crashed. I can't shoot the targets, because I always shoot through them and if I do, then they fall over andThis is the buggiest mess I've played.

    Впервые за долгое время отсутствует русская локализация, однако игра продается в русском регионе. С таким отношением нулевая оценка. Возвращайтесь к Square Enix или WB, если у самих ума нет довести игру до комфортного состояния.    No Russian.

    Sorry I've played every hitman. These games are stale. They don't push any boundaries. The game is literally a re skin every year. No change in gameplay or mechanics. A game with thus many entries should evolve. But its literally the same exact game over and over. Just a different story and a graphics upgrade. Sad...

    I tried a free version. And during a mission I couldn’t save my progress. Save button was inactive. The mission failed and was supposed to restart again. 30 minutes of my life was wasted for nothing. No way I’m going to buy this game. I’ll spend my time and money elsewhere.

    Es una pena que vendan la bodrio5 como la mas poderosa cuando ni siquiera soporta el motor grafico de hitman 3 el cual en la Godbox Series X tiene un desempeño sin igual con una calidad visual impresionante, en resumen no lo recomiendo en ps5, solo en xbox y pc vale la pena

    GAME IS BROKEN

    Purchased the deluxe version and by now I’ve uninstalled the game. Hitman 1/2 are still unavailable to play through hitman 3 and my progress was wiped. The bugs are constant and the game feels like it wasn’t worth anywhere close to full price

The shooting is still sub par, not every mission has to require a suave and elaborate gameplan, just feels like the game isn't improving outside of visuals. I'm a huge fan of the Hitman franchise which is why I want to hold the Devs of H3 accountable so the next Hitman series actually takes a step forward with gameplay. Also the DLC for H3 is so so SO disappointing. You guys are capable of being so much better than what you heave been recently.… Expand

    Hitman 3 is a well crafted goodbye to restarted series. It will surprise you with its complexity, puzzles and very nice looks, enhanced by the new generation of consoles. [Issue#309]

    This is how you end a trilogy. If you love this murderous series, you simply cannot miss its latest instalment. The campaign is a bit barebones, though, and a pause might be the best thing for the whole franchise.

    Hitman 3 is about the highest bar IO Interactive could set with the franchise. This is a universe the developer has lovingly crafted over the years and a perfect opportunity to let Agent 47 rest awhile. Hitman‘s laughable dark humor is here in spades, as the community devises weird challenges for each other that were never part of IO Interactive’s original plan. There are flaws–one’s that haven’t changed since 2016–but they are merely quirks that fans have embraced and come to terms with. As Escalations, Contracts, and new content trickles out over the months to come, Hitman 3 will continue to delight in its murderous, unique intent. Though 47 will eventually be traded for 007, it would be foolish to not recognize IO Interactive as an accomplished developer, responsible for an incredible game.
