I'll never forget the first time I botched the shot. After multiple grueling attempts, I had found the building that contained the sniper rifle out of pure luck ( I didn't look at the photo's or really listen to Diana, I was like 10 at the time ). My tv was especially dark for whatever reason so my sight wasn't 100% clean, but I wasn't about to let that stop me. I aim through the window and I spot the men wearing general uniform, but one of them just stands out especially to me. He isn't moving, yet his posture is perfect. As if he was begging me to take him down. I instantly get suspicious of him. I look at his hand and notice the pen in his right hand, further adding to my suspicion. Next I check to see if he has any cigars or ash-trays around him, which he doesn't. By this point in time I was barely paying any attention to the other people, my sights were locked onto this guy. Finally I look to see if he has any hair and I find that he is in-fact bald. I'm 100% positive that this has to be my target. I wait until my aim gets steadier and go for a shot right between the eyes. Before I fire, I start getting excited and thinking to myself "Finally, after replaying this stage for so long! I'll finally move on! I can't wait to kill this bastard!" I'm practically sweating with anticipation when I finally pull the trigger. I watch the glass shatter and everyone immediately jump up. Everyone except my target. Yet, he isn't dead. He hasn't even budged from his spot and I am 100% positive I made a headshot. It wasn't until closer examination that I realized I did hit my target. A fatal headshot indeed. Unfortunately, you cannot take the life of an inanimate object. I shot the fucking painting.

At first, the map of this mission seemed to me as a stereotypical vision of Russia by a foreigner. But, in fact, the atmosphere of winter St. Petersburg of the late 90s is very well conveyed in it. Collapsing facades of historic buildings, dirty snow and anxiety. Of course, in reality the city was less dull, there were shops, stalls, bars. The police and the FSB did not wear earflaps and AKS-74U, at that troubled time it was difficult to meet them on the streets of this crime-ridden city. Well, the Pushkin building very poorly fits into the thematic landscape of St. Petersburg. It is too Soviet, brutal and dark. It could be built in Moscow during the Soviet regime, but not in the center of St. Petersburg) In general, the developers have done an excellent job with the available technologies and knowledge of the cultural capital of Russia. Greetings from St. Petersburg!
Laughed so hard when that guy entered when you took the shot! A room with an unfamiliar bald dude and a gun on the ground right after you hear a shot, the response:hmmmm XD
10:15 Sudden shot fired and General Dead - Couldn't have been the suspicious bald person standing beside the open window, as his SVD Sniper Rifle is lying on the floor.
I don't think anybody knows this but there is a 5.45mm Pistol in Level 2 which people think is only available in Mission 5 (Invitation to a party with that Russian dude). There is a road block at the far left end of the map (the one near the apartment building) with 3 soilders and then an additional 1 soilder. The 5.45mm Pistol is with one of those 3 soilders. I found out about this when I played this level with Mass Murderer Ranking 😁😈
this game is amazing and this mission is my favorite. really does make u feel like a true assassin infiltrated deep behind enemy lines in russia during a cold snowy winter. too bad i cannot find that feeling in any of the newer games these days
My all time favorite hitman ever I’ll never forget playing this on my OG Xbox on a Friday night during the winter and it caused me to immerse myself so deep in this game.
Smooth operator. I love the thunderous orchestra in the soundtrack. It elevated the game a lot for me. The complete lack of music made absolution a weaker experience, in my opinion.
Why do I find these videos so soothing? Is it the music? My childhood Nostalgia? Knowing that he won't die or get caught? Idk, but either way, thanks for sharing
Nor is firing a sniper rifle one room over from a guard, only to drop the rifle and turn the other way like nothing happened when he bursts in the door, apparently. lol
Man I remember I had SO much trouble with this mission. So attempt#1, i get to the building and i realize i dont have a sniper rifle. Then i attempt to eliminate the target with a silenced pistol. I manage to break the glass, but no kill. Now guards are swarming me and i am killed. Next attempt, I bring a sniper with me after much hassle, (killing the guards in the square where the meeting takes place) and then I wait for Diana’s Info, and take the shot. Im giddy right up until that moment when Diana told me that I had eliminated the wrong target.
The music cues are so awesome. Another thing largely missing from Absolution. My fav part of Hitman is calmly walking away from a hit when the music kicks in.
shattered window parallel with the conference room, Dragunov rifle laying on ground, KGB "Guard" with a bald head in the middle of winter, nothing suspicious at all there
I played this game - or a demo of it - years and years ago and tried to get past the first part dressed up as the mailman but kept getting caught. It was so hard and I may have quit of frustration. Now, I think I am going to get the trilogy because it just looks so darn good.
Diana: The target's psych evaluation suggests a low IQ. 47: *aims at person reading this comment* Diana: Listen up, 47, it appears that he's straight 47: *points gun at someone else*
4:44 That right there is the classic ninja hiding technique, where the ninja lays straight and motionless. Even when Hitman is in the guard's line-of-sight, the guard doesn't notice.
Because the subtitle is Silent Assassin. Makes sense that the game is very difficult, and even more so difficult to get the actual rating. I first played this game when it came out in 2002. I was only 9, and granted I didn't play the hardest difficulties, I still completed it myself.
For some real badassery, I took nothing from the locker. I only brought the chloroform with me. I went through the same route as the uploader did, but after getting the soldier uniform by the truck, I sneaked into the back of the Zeitsev Building and knocked out an FSB bodyguard. I then dragged him behind the dumpster outside, took his gun along with his uniform, and sneaked into the building, up the stairs, and busted in on the meeting. I was able to fire just one round with the 9mm and take down the general right by the window. I ran out of there, changed back into the military uniform and left the gun there, went back to the army truck and changed back into my suit, slipped down the manhole cover and back to the station.
Try playing hidden passage, that mission is a BITCH, even if you have the disguise the ninjas will go up to you and ask for id, which will blow your cover so its useless to use it, oh and Snipers are in that mission which makes it even more harder to get silent assassin.
Really, thanks a lot for these vids. You did a great job. I was planning to get the platinum trophy but i think i'll just give up... This game really pisses me off. I understand it's a great game but sometimes it's just so fucking RANDOM... I did this entire mission perfectly, after several tries, but got caught at the end, in the subway, for no reason. In the first mission, the guy at the beginning who's gonna take a pee CLEARLY sees you but nothing happens. Here, i'm in the subway, no weapons on me, dressed as a military but, somehow, a guy spots me or "recognize" me... Fuck... :(
+MrBientasvu the key is to stay out of direct sight and not make noise around enemy patrols...in CodeName 47, you were allowed all types of craziness in your disguise but in this, they made it more realistic where 47's disguise will not work up close and even then, as you see in this mission, he drops the Dragunov right in front of the guard but still is allowed to walk away

+utubedano yeah, i know lol but at the same time is fun to kill them. Just my opinion 😉
+carlthunder04 ikr
Same. lol. I shot my way thru all the guards in the tunnel.
Fucking emojis on the internet. Everyone in the right fucking mind knows you don't use emojis on the damn internet!

yeah, he's like "hmmmm, he's walking away from the window with a sniper rifle on the ground, but he's not holding it, so he's okay" lol

No doubt about it bcoz that soldier taught ballad headed as one of his soldier who came to check same like him.
This game was amazing... Brings back so many memories as a kid haha
Skailyr Alexander lol I completed it in 2019
same here. same here
I am completed in 2021
Thank you guys for the support.
Glad to continue my walkthrough.
I was in St Petersburg a few years ago. The subway does look exactly like that. Including the very long escalators. Nice job Hitman!
That’s awesome, of course I can’t visit there now, and I don’t think Americans will for a very long time
This game is a masterpiece, it will forever have a place in my what a special game it was
agent 47 drops sniper rifle
Russian soldier: hmmm no gulag for you
Took me 15 years to beat this mission
With stealth is very hard!
??? game only been out 12 years...
It took me 47 years to beat this mission.
it took me 69 years
jeffrey carelly I still can't get past the guards, this is the only mission in Hitman games that I never passed!!
He just entered the room 1 second after the shot. I was lucky to drop the weapon in time before he spotted me.

Don't lie màn, we can clearly see you knew he was gonna come. You might've killed by him in your failed attempts
This hitman game is random nobody will ever truly have the same run
Run 1: he waits by the door doesn't move
Run 2: he's nowhere to be found
I still remember playing this game 10 years ago, what a game, I ve played all hitman games and I can say this one is the best one
Contract was just another level!
*As a Hitman fan its nice to see someone doing a good gameplay of this game*
I don't think anybody knows this but there is a 5.45mm Pistol in Level 2 which people think is only available in Mission 5 (Invitation to a party with that Russian dude).

I think the snow castle mission is my favourite!! And the guards were so funny in that saying "YAMEE! YAMEE!!"
The music in this level was epic
Cod mw1 all ghillied up was better than this.

Arshia Osfouri except in mechanics. Level design is god tier but the core gameplay is very primitive.

Yup. Nothing really suspicious about that. Move along, nothing to see here.

I do t like a hard ness game
6:31 in russia, seeing SVD pipes coming out of random open manholes is a common occurrence, no wonder that guard wasnt alerted

Good old days!!! Unbeatable
that soundtrack, magnificent, masterpiece, new games doesnt have even half soundtrack like this
The music cutting out when entering the building at 7:52 and it coming back dark because you’re about to take out the target at 8:22 is just epic.

It was a beautiful game for its time.
I love how St. Petersburg has that post-Soviet Union gloom.
Damn.. That theme after Target kill 😘. Thanks for the video bro. Brings back so much memories ❤

great gameplay. even though you're aiming for the SA rating on Pro, you still following the Diana instructions about the target
Best level to absolutely get lost!
always loved the music in this game
He played very clean. I remember killing all the guards and arriving in the general's building and killing the general who appears strange
"If you set me up, I will find you and I will burn that building to the ground around you" :)
Good god this music brings back so many memories :O
I never beated this level as a kid and played it for months lol
@Metildaable It wasn't easy to make it perfect.
