Not enough ratings
Rating/ranking system & 5 star requirements [simplified details]
By Annie T. Mood
Some of the other guides on this site don't give enough details. I put this guide together because I want to use it for myself as well since I don't feel like constantly juggling through pages and scrolling through random-ish posts to find what I'm looking for.

All the data listed are taken straight from the findings of some user named "Aleksey Sazonov" (or "alekseysaz"), as well as some fandom wikis and a GameFAQs guide.

The star rating system
  • Each mission has a point requirement for the Style Points rating (Deliverance excluded, but the actual point requirement might just be extremely low for that mission).
  • The Time Bonus is required to acquire the last star on the final score.
  • Hardcore difficulty is the only way to get 5 stars on a mission. You can only get a max of 4 stars on the standard Fetish difficulty.
  • There's no score penalty for not being stealthy or taking damage, as the game was not designed for doing ghost runs. There's also no penalty for saving & loading.
The point system
Each mission has a point requirement for the Style Points. See the next section for what each mission's are.

Kills (regular kills) - 2 points
Hasty (white) execution - 4 points
Violent (yellow) execution - 5 points
Gruesome (red) execution - 6 points

Head explosion - bonus 1 point
- As an example, if your 2-point regular kill explodes the head, you get the bonus point to total into 3.
- Head explosions from dead bodies, can give the bonus point.
- Decapitations are not head explosions, but decapitated heads can still be smashed for the bonus point (confirmation needed). I don't think you can shoot them, though their hitbox might just be terrible.
- The Gruesome execution with any kind of baseball bat is 6 points with an added bonus from the head explosion during the cinematic, making it an automatic 7-point execution. The baseball bat is not to be confused with the blackjack (the earliest new weapon that you get in the second mission, before the actual baseball bat).
- Below is a list of weapons that can perform head explosions (copied from a wiki page):
  • Revolver (Only during Strapped for Cash when the Wardogs shoot a member of Cash's Family)
  • Baseball Bat (Any kind except for the Blackjack, during the gruesome execution and when hitting a body on the ground)
  • Sawn-Off Shotgun
  • Shotgun
  • Shotgun + Light
  • Sniper Rifle
  • Chainsaw (only in the gruesome execution)
