Ryan is the perfect choice for elusive targets. He's good enough to not die immediately, screws around enough to turn short missions into 30 minute videos, but funny enough to not make it frustrating.
Diana: "Give me a sit rep people, how did 47's elusive target go today?" Some agency jobber: Uhhhmm...well ma'am he...he murdered well over a dozen guards and civilians in broad daylight before making any attempt to locate the target. Diana: "...and what reason was it this time?" Agency jobber: ...well...we think he was trying to secure the clothing of a street performer as his disguise- Diana: "Fuck me with these god damn outfits of his, its the Hokkaido Ninja stunt all over again..."

Hearing Geoff and/ or anyone else laughing off camera is one of my favorite things about a lets play/ watch. Obviously the content is my favorite. But that extra laughter is like a cherry on top.
The game of the year edition hit, they are doing it for the benefit of all the new players that missed out. That's not shitty or lazy, probably using the downtime to make a batch of new missions too.
The game came out almost 2 years ago, if anyone bought it now when the game of the year edition came out, they would have missed all elusive targets. I bought the game just before the fifth to last elusive target came out, I thought I had missed out on content forever. So I'm very grateful that they're doing them one more time. And again, its' almost 2 years later, this second chance is much appreciated.
I typed before the briefing precised they had to kill one of the brothers :c And I'm a Husky, have you ever tried to type with fucking paws? It's really hard :p
I love this game and play it well. If I want to I could get a silent assassin in 5 minutes but then also spend two hours killing every person in the level. I still like playing like Ryan and creating chaos and randomness than just being good at it.
I believe Geoff's laugh has gone from curing cancer to actually bringing people back from the dead. Every video should have a background laughing Geoff :D.
Hearing them pondering how Gavin has credit for the Elusive Target at the end while suspenseful music(from the game's menu) plays in the background was great.
Due to the GOTY edition release, they are repeating elusive targets. But only people who hadn't completed/failed them initially would be able to attempt them.
The current elusive targets are re-runs of the previous ones because of the game of the year edition release (to allow new people to do it), so if you did them before, then you cant do them again.
I know this is two years late, but Gavin is right, they did reuse this target, it was in 2016 the first time and they were on a different map. They were in the mission World of Tomorrow.
mitlacek I believe headshots are appropriate in sensitive situations, say a suicide bomber or a hostage situation, wherein you need the immediate kill to prevent dead man switch scenarios. They teach something along the lines of the T-box in the face, to ensure an immediate kill.
Me 5 minutes into the video: I wonder if they ever recycle elusive targets, because I’d love to buy Hitman now and start playing elusive targets. Them at the end + half the comment section: hey guess what guys they’ve started recycling elusive targets!
At 0:27 Diana said "The target (Dylan) has recently purchased a...platinum Mangot wristwatch," but at 2:40 Geoff mistakenly said "Dylan Narvaez doesn't have a watch." This was one of the few times when Ryan's penchant for not listening was a good thing, otherwise he would have killed the wrong twin and failed the mission.
I question them sometimes. The start was a literal repeat of the last one. Gavin confused on Ryan having a clown baseball bat and Ryan all shocked "Do I have something you don't?" Literally the repeat of the last one.
This video was just one hilarious moment after another. I've never played a Hitman game, but this is easily one of my favorite games to watch them play.
To coincide with the release of the GOTY edition, the current slate of Elusive Targets will repeat for all players, the first of which will appear in early November. Important note for existing players: any of the previous Elusive Targets that you have successfully completed or failed is permanent. Only those you have missed or never attempted will appear when re-activated.
Good on Ryan for unlocking the Sieger 300 Ghost. That's one of the best sniper rifles in the game. I just wonder if he completed the Cheveyo Calibration escalation because he knew it would unlock the rifle or if he completed it because AH has been having so much fun with Hitman escalations.
The even funnier part after Ryan missed the chef so many times, is that Gavin asked if somebody farted and ryans missing had me laughing so hard i did fart, so gavin asking right after i farted just killed me.
Geoff's laugh, a poem. It completes me, warms my soul like it was before a hot fire on a winter night. Upon hearing it we know that all is right. It raises my blood then calms it like the sap in springtime. As flowers fade and branches Buckle we all listen to Geoff and his happy chuckle. Bahaha
this one is just hilarious to me because it was one of the quickest ET's for me and i'm 15 minutes in and Ryan still hasn't even attempted to look for them
