Let's Watch - Hitman Escalation - Pipe Dreams (#1)

[@hallow198yt]

Gavin -> I'll play based on my experience in Hitman. Jack -> I'll play based on how Gavin did, given his experience. Michael -> I'll spice it up and create chaos. Ryan -> I have experience in Hitman.... but I saw the chaos, and now I have to oblige.

[@lcephoenix]

Haha, spot-on!

[@shadowangel2375]

This is kind of why I don't like Michael playing this game. This game is about planning everything out to the letter and being very calculated and methodical, Michael just screws around and shoots random people.

[@ron4202]

ralphcross237 But it’s funny lol

[@Redflametrow]

Ryan has experience in being a hitman, not in Hitman.

[@taco6n13]

ralphcross237 you say that, but the only hit man videos where Michael plays are this one, the other escalation, and 2 with his mom when the game first came out. So you're complaining about a very rare event. Also Michael has played Hitman games befor and knows how the basic mechanics work, so he is probably more qualify than every one else besides Gavin and Ryan.

[@bljy853]

Gavin's silent assassin comment when Jack was playing made me think, I would love to see Gavin play through all of this game doing every challenge and perfecting every mission. Sort of like a solo version of Criminal Mastermind but in Hitman. Or maybe with this sort of Let's Watch-ish format since Gavin isn't usually alone in vids.

[@ZHL242]

God I've been wanting this ever since the first Hitman Let's Play

[@TheUsurper50]

Yeah I don't think he'd do it alone. He's mentioned before he doesnt understand how Michael could make nonstop content by himself during Full Plays.

[@rickycarrillo7821]

I'm ten minutes in and they've already done two... I have an hour and ten minutes left. Something has to go horribly wrong

[@mysticwiztech]

you're not wrong

[@jayrapley8638]

bruh I feel you I'm in the same boat

[@user-jj9uf7ww8n]

7 seconds too close...

[@antisepticblep3825]

"sorry love" he's so delightfully british

[@piperformerlycassette]

Is that a joke about X-Ray and Vav?

[@dangerousaniimals]

Gavin DROPS the gun as he says "I'm on top of it." 56:36

[@GyorgLopez]

Gavin dropping the pistol was fantastic.

[@africa241]

56:36 Did Gavin just drop the gun? 7 seconds later I had my answer.

[@n0body550]

Cant believe they all missed michaels “muuum im 47” joke

[@abucket14]

it was basically when Geoff makes the perfect joke and everyone but Jack doesnt hear it, except WE are jack.

[@user-ns3vs3bp3e]

Simple Geoff = Chicken farmer Simple Ryan = heavily armed and well trained assassin that just doesn’t have some equipment 😂

[@teamredshirt]

Look, It get complicated when you have to do more than pull a trigger.

[@Blizzic]

It's like Groundhog Day except the main character is an assassin killing the same target every day.

[@jasonwalker4003]

Blizzic I would absolutely pay to see that

[@SylentVoidkeeper]

Blizzic DORMARMU, IVE COME TO BARGAIN

[@VideoSage]

I'm so glad they came back for that last one, it would have bugged me if they had left it like they were going to.

[@Dark_Depresion]

Michael: Ah, I got caught up in the bloodlust and forgot. Ryan: I understand. You know, coming from Ryan, I might just believe that.

[@marcopohl4875]

might?

[@vasu1455]

i don't think there's a better feeling than seeing a hitman video pop up from ah, and then seeing it's an hour and 20 minutes long

[@SexyHobosRus]

1:14:26 I like the idea of a Hitman that creeps into a room, bips a guy in the head, then immediately goes, "Wait, what did I come in here for again?"

[@Freakishd]

"He hit the carotid artery, in the leg." -Michael Jones, 2018

[@dwcramer92]

Freakishd i caught that too, he deffinitely meant femoral.

[@pankeki3601]

They should do more of these escalation missions. This was a good watch.

[@YogiXXL]

I like that Ryan forced the crew to finish the mission. It was worth it.

[@Wintersypher]

I'm glad Ryan insisted they do it again

[@norahvargo7899]

gavin: drops the gun “im on top of it”

[@LewsTheDragon]

Best moment.

[@cameronpoland3364]

At 56:38, Gavin just drops the gun on the ground😂 I noticed it the first time watching it and was like “did I just see what I thought I did?” Then when he couldn’t get it back out I just facepalmed cause I knew he did drop it😂

[@DasVERMiT]

Start churnin' these out, bois. I love me some Hitman!

[@gameman876]

Does this mean we’re going to get more of the let’s watch HITMAN™ again? I would love that.

[@FoenixRight]

I love that they're still playing Hitman. It's such a great game. Hopefully Ryan can pick up some more unlocks for future cheeky kills. :)

[@solsticelacer]

Michael has a great point about achievements changing. Pretty much rendered "achievement hunting" useless because now it's just; play the game.

[@kmanalpha453]

Shadow of War had a lot of decent achievements and yet they made zero guides for that one

[@devabstergo1645]

KManAlpha why do you think they should though? lmao

[@_antisocialmedia6377]

A few games I own that I think have good achievements: Rivals of Aether (The "Kill With" ones especially) Enter The Gungeon (One of them is "kill a boss after you cover it with glitter") Please, Don't Touch Anything (Perfectionist. That is all I will say) The Stanley Parable (It has stuff like "Don't play the game for five years" or "Play the game for the entire duration of a Tuesday")

[@lowbrowlassie]

I like this format of taking turns. I hope they do something like this again.

[@hf117j]

I like the format as well. Especially with these four. I'd say Jeremy would be good in it too but I feel like rather than understanding if he's bad at the game he might get fighty and fail a few more times before Team Love n Stuff (Ryan and Gavin) can finish it up. Michael and Jack were great in this video, gotta appreciate how smoothly it went with those two understanding their limitations and Ryan going back to finish it instead of leaving us hanging. Gavin felt like a supervisor in this video but like the cool supervisor who you can actually ask about things instead of the one that bitches at you for asking. Overall, great format and great team. There's nothing I could complain about with this video. 10/10 absolutely gonna watch again (later though)

[@fancykitten85]

They should do the Cheveyo Calibration escalation. It escalates to seven tragets and has some challenging complications. It also unlocks the Sieger 300 Ghost sniper rifle which would have helped then a lot in this mission because it has a high multi-level zoom and slows down time when aiming.

[@simplycifer]

The Hitman videos are always good. They should definitely do more of these.

[@animorphlover3]

Please do more! There are so many escalation contracts in the game!

[@Dx3SATeX]

I watched the moment a few times to make sure Ryan literally had one second on the timer when he killed that last guy. Clutch headshot.

[@Samchampion765]

I would love a compilation of all the times Michael says things with such assurance but is always completely wrong

[@Yal_Rathol]

Jacob Pickard with the difference being that gavin doesn't play up his idioticy, what gavin does is occasionally transform into a troll.

[@VibinBryan]

i feel like micheal playing hitman is like his minecraft career. where he sucks now but suddenly hes gonna get really good

[@P-K-P]

the moment you realize everything would have been over much sooner if Michael knew the difference between right and left.

[@jtarmyman4]

56:35 huh that looked like he dropped the gun in the street. *5 seconds later* Gavin: "Get [the gun] out! Did I just put it away?"

[@icecreamfrog524]

"It's littering because it's litter-ary" Oh, Gavin

[@dangerousaniimals]

over an hour of hitman??? oh hell yes

[@freya4074]

the official unofficial team love n stuff series!!!!!

[@anonymousally9783]

Gavin snipes a man in plain sight and no one notices. *E S C A L A T E D*

[@ImplosionFactory]

More escalations!!! I love when you guys play hitman!

[@MrGeorgeFlorcus]

32:30 I guess you could say, "That escalated quickly!"

[@barbaro267]

9:16-9:20 nice edit there, really making Michael look like more of a freak than he is haha.

[@mikemurphy5898]

barbaro267 holy shit lol'd at that...made my evening

[@derbydriver]

There is a door in your apartment that leads right out onto the roof. You don't have to go through Rocco's apartment to get there. But it's still funny to do it anyway.

[@xShepZ]

*Jack shoots guy in knee* Michael: He hit the carotid artery. lol

[@WruceBayne]

What your carotid artery isn't in your knee, and your femoral in your neck? Lmao

[@jasoncopeland8478]

Gavin, yes you can fire from the ledge. There's no cover, and you will get spotted, but you CAN.

[@mariooy6120]

Seeing Gavin, Michael, Ryan and Jack i knew that will be a great video. :D

[@nathanpapp432]

Not seeing a name in that list let me know it would be a great video.

[@yacobvlogs1238]

I wish Jeremy showed uo

[@alextravansky2201]

nathan papp which one

[@benodonnell6540]

All the crimes committed and Michael worries about littering

[@chrismarco17]

Between 50:44 in this video and throwing the soda can at an NPC and yelling "Soda Pop!", Ryan has some of the funniest moments in this Let's Watch series.

[@fancykitten85]

Or throwing a brick at the reporter at the beginning of the "Holiday Hoarders" mission and yelling "BRICK!!!" His lust for unnecessary violence makes these videos a lot funnier, but it also lowers his score into negative numbers so he hasn't unlocked much of the good gear.

[@TheRealAlpha2]

32:32 boy, that escalated quickly.

[@SUPERFunStick]

I think your Hitman videos are my favorite please don't ever stop making these they're all so hilarious every time

[@Kolateak_]

80 minute Hitman video? Dreams do exist

[@kenmdrt]

Michael's impression of 47 is pretty fucking perfect.

[@theapocasmith]

Elite assassin. Can't get out the feckin door

[@NastyN4s]

56:36 "i got it" right after dropping the pistol

[@arthurbass34]

When Gavin dropped the pistol though

[@alias588]

Gavin looks so cut. I bet he could jump through a plate glass window and not even feel it!

[@stdoval]

OH SHIT cancel all my meetings, I have a Hitman Let's Watch today!!

[@Charlie-mr1sb]

Ahhh yes, love me some Gavin and hitman on a Friday afternoon.

[@Revanaught]

God I've missed the Hitman videos. Hopefully this does well so they keep doing them.

[@matthewpolfer1286]

When Gavin dropped his gun and tried to pull it out again. XD

[@kalen1702]

Jack fucking ran over a woman on his way out lmao 8:34

[@SBXStorm431]

More of the Hitman videos, they are brilliant!

[@thebeese4763]

Anyone else think Ryan is WAAAAY too fucking good at getting away with murder?

[@Charlottinachocolate]

*Jack with a sniper rifle on his back* “I’ve seen people down at Capitol wearing shit like this” That aged like milk

[@BigBadWolf30]

It is hilarious though and also pretty sad

[@alchemistnezumi9780]

*That aged like fine wine FTFY

[@onemuststand7353]

Did it actually happen? Because saying it aged like milk would make no sense. Aging like milk means the comparison didn't come close to happening.

[@senpaijp6578]

​0).0

[@senpaijp6578]

00000

[@BADRANG4EVER]

I felt such sympathy for Gavin during his run at one hour into the video where he failed to snipe all three of them AND had to remember to equip the gun before that 7 second timer ran out. His reaction; throwing down the controller and refusing to attempt it again, is exactly what I would have done

[@Destorath666]

This is awesome hope you guys keep doing escalations in between elusive contracts.

[@itsallogre6411]

When they start and sing I finish the song and feel like I'm apart of the group

[@jaedonhaskins9917]

YES. ANOTHER HITMAN. FINALLY.

[@Mattman993]

Play the rest of the levels like this! I enjoyed the chaos

[@emmeyeseekayy]

Hitman and sky factory uploads in one day?!? There is a god.

[@abucket14]

i just love them playing the hitmans what with the shooting and the failure, and the gaver dropping his F-ing pistol... good times all the times.

[@Liur.]

Keep your eye on Yellow Shirt dude @ 8:25.

[@bronzeowl9]

56:30 "did- did he just" 7 seconds later "yep"

[@jackson-gillies]

New Hitman? Today is a good day.

[@trenchfighter8778]

they should do more escalations like this

[@Kvasnikov]

Hitman video will always escalate my happiness.

[@immortalkoopah3138]

31:17 Ryan: sister or lover? Jack: one or the other Gavin I don't know Michael: Both me: SWEEEEET HOME ALABAMA

[@shadow3d1]

56:36 Gavin drops the pistol

[@sarahwithstars]

That pistol fail despite the pistol in your hand was hilarious xxx

[@gamester091]

fun fact, just cause 2 wasnt actually racists...cuz they actually went to the country the game takes place in to get VAs...so thats literally how they talk..they did it the most authentic way....

[@notaprinny]

gamester091 yeah but that is still racist! They used stereotypical sounding people instead of finding ones that didn’t sound stupid!!! /s

[@de-syncman2336]

when you realize that the country in just cause 2 doesn't actually exist

[@notaprinny]

Stephen Buchanan I believe what the OP meant is that the VAs come from the Mediterranean, which is where the country that Just Cause 2 takes place in is located.

[@enegetics5975]

It's never racist to imitate any accent because any race is equally capable of any accent. Racist people do often imitate foreign accents intending derogatory meaning but let's not allow them to restrict perfectly reasonable behavior. They'd do derogatory 'Irish accents' in the recent past, intending to insult, but today we know that imitating an 'Irish accent' is not itself offensive.

[@IDeclareReptar]

A logical person, wow.

[@cinemage1]

Yeah...you SHOULD do more.

[@499268003]

Micheal on how Achievements have changes, PREACH IT BOI

[@BradyDoesntMiss]

These are my favorite achievement hunter videos.

[@tuxedomask7892]

I knew as soon as Michael got the paddle all hell was gonna break loose lol

[@rasmusNorby]

I'm sick AND I did a geoff by shitting my pants today... I've literally been doing nothing but watching KZbin videos today. I just felt like telling you that 😃😄

[@blazenwhiper]

Hope you get better soon.

[@forest-twink]

AN HOUR AND 20 MINUTES #BLESS

[@AndrewmanGaming]

56:35 Gavin drops the pistol XD

[@RFFrules]

i feel an ah animated coming out of this

[@AlchemistX10]

Michael: knocks a dude out Jack: oh that's so nice! You didn't kill him! Ryan: There's still time....

[@garretta4911]

So I feel like Michael has been playing some Uncharted.

[@MrBoho7]

More of this!

[@Mr_M_]

Has anyone ever noticed that Gavin really looks like that person from the Slow Mo Guys...

[@DarknessViper99]

Yeah, even sounds like him! Even has the same name, same nationality, same…wait a minute.

[@JRockySchmidt]

Made me snort. Heres a thumbs up

[@slipstreamtechnician2811]

We all know that the Gavin of Slow Mo Guys is Clone 42, the smartest of the Gavins, the one here is Gavin Prime, the original Gavin, which is why he's the stupid one

[@pappy1527]

No

[@pappy1527]

@slipstream get your rick and morty theories out of here

[@solmurray-ward3320]

This is one of the worst escalations to choose due to the sticky pistol objective

[@MrEsphoenix]

I'd argue it's one of the easiest with that snipe spot. Especially when you have the better rifle

[@solmurray-ward3320]

Eddy S I guess you could say it’s easy to do and get a shit score but to actually get a good score, it’s one of the most annoying

[@BeanieHatGaming]

Gavin - “I’m guna bollocks this up” Still another 20 mins on video....let’s guess

[@NotAdrianF]

HITMAN! ITS THE DRUG I'VE BEEN MISSING

[@LaughingJokerProd]

"No one will call the cops If there's no one to call the cops..." - Michael's Stelath strategem

[@Liam-fk3ll]

RIP Rocco, you will be missed.

[@TheFrostyCrane]

7ima I feel bad for the dude who won the contest and now watches everyone kill him

[@MrMoustacheNinja]

Hahah this was great!!! I really hope you guys do some more escalations!! This was a lot of fun! The more hitman videos the better! Also that final kill with literally 1 second left. Clutch

[@mr.negativenancy5751]

I liked the swap out

[@angelt5339]

Please do more escalation missions

[@Bigben0419]

It's been awhile since I've played Hitman but because of this video I decided to do this mission I done it in one go and didn't die once but I still had more fun watching the video than actually doing it myself you guys stay funny and I would love to see more escalation missions

[@derbydriver]

This is by far one of the easiest escalations. Some of them are infuriatingly hard.

[@TrippyPenguin]

This should have been titled: "Aiming with a controller"

[@ryanr4156]

it's not even that hard honestly. aiming with a controller is a lot easier than that, sensitivity may be a bit too high.

[@The_Viktor_Reznov]

I was literally thinking the same thing throughout the whole video, their aim was disgusting.

[@Aplesedjr]

I think they are just bad, no matter what they play with.

[@Sn0wballNinja]

Controllers are only useful for racing and fighting games. Mouse all the way.

[@decker9911hg]

Mark Waring And why is that, champ?

[@zaggrukk8644]

I like how they never listen to each other. It was said in the beginning of the video that left and right on the D-pad would swap weapons. Nobody did it. They all just kept going into the menu. The biggest challenge for these guys. . . .is themselves.

[@fancykitten85]

You're right that they never listen to each other, but they WERE using the D pad. Pushing left or right on the D pad pauses the game and takes you to your inventory wheel which you then have to rotate through to select the item you want and push X to equip it. That's what Gavin meant when he said "D pad's your weaponry" when Jack started to play, and that's what they were doing throughout the video. It's needlessly cumbersome, and that's a pet peeve of Hitman players. People in the forums are always suggesting ways it could be improved, but nobody listens to them either.

[@zaggrukk8644]

Really? I was playing it over the holiday and could have sworn that it just switched it on screen like every other game that uses the d-pad to switch weapons. oh-well.
