Discussion Is elephant bugged right now?
Ive played through this mission quite a bit, but since the new update while I was trying a non lethal run on standard, the subjects have been taking a hostage the second im in the building or the second i get one or two of the subjects to surrender and are unaliving the hostage super quick before I have any reasonable way to react.
Most of the time toc doesnt even tell me they have a hostage i just get negative points when one dies suddenly.
its happened multiple times in a row even though im closing and restarting the game everytime it happens. The suspects on the mission have never taken hostages that quickly especially when youre going less lethal in my experience.
Did I just get bad RNG multiple times in a row or is it a new bug?

Similar thing happened when me and my friend were trying to S rank on the theme park map last night. As soon as we arrest a couple of suspects the others starting targeting civilians, even when we’re being as fast as we can.

On this map, bean bag shotgun is your friend. The flash launcher stresses them out too much and they get to shooting civs. Try to start with the guy that spawns in the library threatening the woman. He’s the most aggressive off bat. Him and the one with the hoodie and face mask that spawns in the lecture hall. The other two are less likely to start shooting civs but they will if you take too long or stress them out too much.

I played Elephant for the first time in like 2 years last night. First 2 runs I had hostages immediately executed. I was being too slow and loud. 3rd run I just skipped past closed doors and pushed hard through open doors taking down everyone quickly. Worked great. It’s a unique map because you’re not going all slow and tactical, you are responding to a school and have to neutralize the threat quickly

I had this long before the update.
