We've made some changes to the player experience in the ICA Facility Location.
These include level design, AI and UI improvements in all missions and contracts in the ICA Facility.
Note: Due to these changes, previous game saves in this location will not be valid.
We've added a new system of global hints that will explain some of the game's mechanics to new players.
These can be toggled in the settings menu and are set to 'On' by default.
We've fixed an issue that could cause this contract to be 'failed' unfairly. We removed it from the game in March and now it's back in. Find it under the Paris Destination.
We've tweaked the bootflow of the game with a new background and shortened the time it takes to get into the game.
We've fixed an issue that could cause the 'Hunted' state to apply to 47's suit, even if he was wearing a different disguise when compromised.
We've fixed an issue that could make it impossible for 47 to poison Novikov's drink in The Showstopper during the 'A Drink to Die For' opportunity.
We've updated the localised names and descriptions of the Steam achievements .
We've made minor tweaks to the overall menus, especially the Options Menu to ensure consistency when selecting buttons.
Known Issues
In some locations, the mini-map status will display 'trespassing' even when 47 is in a hostile area. This issue has already been fixed, but not in time to make it into this release. In our next update, this fix will be implemented and the correct status will display. Note that the set-ups for hostile areas has not changed, it's purely the incorrect status being listed on the mini-map status.
Unconscious Witness
The 'Unconscious Witness' status notification above the minimap is not shown. Instead, the 'Compromised' state is shown. This is an unintended result of the UI changes made to the ICA Facility and has already been fixed, but not in time to make it into this release. In our next update, this fix will be implemented and the correct status will display. Note that this is purely a visual bug and will have no impact on the current scoring system.
