Tbh I expected this game would be like Absolution since the initial reveal trailer, and thatās fine as Absolution wasnāt a bad game, just not a good Hitman game. For bond however the formula might be more appropriate.

Oh, did they actually confirm this number on the stream?

Probably the most important information from the stream! Now how many of those will be Swiss cheese sandboxes?ā¦
There will be no swiss cheese sandbox levels like WOA, it surely is much more like Absolution with some parts that have a bit of freedom how to do things and other parts of pure action.
IO goes full cycle, WOA is a proper Hitman game that learned from Absolution, 007 will be a proper Absolution game that learned from WOA.

Absolutely punching the air in validation that Absolution never was, is, nor will be a Hitman game.

It is. James Bond will just do it better. Like WoA did open world sandbox assassination better thanā¦ everyone.

Yeah this is how I feel too. Iām pretty sure WOA retconned it anyway.
IIRC I think ioi was trying to win the Bond license even all the way back then.

007ās and Hitmanās Eulaās ban mods and private server connections, but 007 seems more aggressive about them and mentions anti-cheat and bans. @IOI_Artjoms will action be taken about mods in First Light? (tried to ask in the stream but it was a lil busy! 
)
I asked again and Arti didnāt know about 007, but he says there were talks about showing mods in Hitman.

Buy 007 on EGS, get wheels for Rocket League and Fortnite.
Epic games have been doing this for ages with so many games now, instead of buying exclusivity like with H3. I think it is pretty cringey but only really effects Fortnite/RR fans and not us.

Bit of a headscratcher, till I remembered that those games do have cars in them.

Iāve had a gold Aston Martin DB5 in Fortnite for a couple weeks and ran into the problem of not having the gold wheels and this is what Iām met with

Realising Iām getting a little off-topic, so Iāll also just add that Iāve noticed 2L branded Coke bottles too, for weeks I was just seeing the multipack cans

Not familiar with this channel, but they have a video interviewing staff at IOI Brighton: Veronique Lallier (Chief Development Officer), Martin Emborg (Narrative & Cinematic Director) and Tom Marcham (Senior Combat Designer):

A demo or time limited trial would be better than this piece of paper.

āSSD Requiredā? Iāve never heard of a game requiring a specific type of hard drive before. Iām good either way and should be able to run this without a problem, but itās an odd requirement. Iām absolutely not saying that solid state drives arenāt the better tech and obviously access/load times will be much better than on a ānormalā Hard Disk, but they say itās required (not recommendedā¦required).

Quite a few games in the last two (three?) years or so have had SSDs as a requirement actually.
