there is a real life location in Chongqing called “graffiti street”. We will probably be seeing this in the game. Supposedly graffiti is super rare in China, which makes this street unique.

Yes and No. IO did actually had walking Crowd NPCs back in Landslide and some in Mumbai even became the ability to talk.
The Downside of them is of course that they can never become Targets, which is a shame looking at some Models.

I’m not sure if a Chinese guy would be able to do a Japanese or Thai accent.
I love the Peter Griffin crowd model and we never get to make contracts on him.

Some people have a knack for it, so, you never know 
Or they could´ve brought in the extra Japanese/Thai VAs (wishful thinking, I know, but a man can dream 
)
Squeenix could’ve given them that when they dubbed 2016 into Japanese.
Yeah, I was surprised when I found out Hokkaido (not sure if any of the other maps) had a full Japanese dubbing 
Shame they didn´t use the VAs for the EN version as well (though it´s possible those VAs simply didn´t speak English sufficiently). Anyways I´m glad to hear Chongqing will be different in this regard.
The more I see from this level, the more I fall in love with it. Really hyped to play this, I just hope it lives up to my insane expectations.

SASO run
Chongqing defenitly reminds me of Mumbai, which is a great thing, because that’s my
favorite Map so far. Can’t wait to play (hopefully) on Thursday.
Why couldn’t we preload, such bs
I absolutely love these new “intro walks” they added to the levels. Reminds me back to Hitman 1 with the limusine, just way way bigger and turned up by 10.

what is the other mission story in chongqing that isn’t the facility tour and those mind controlling tests
I’m really enjoying Chongqing so far, though the level feels more like Deus Ex Mankind Divided than Hitman to me though lol. Feels like a major spike in difficulty, though maybe that’s just me being completely garbage at this.

Is the map larger than Mumbai?
it’s hard to say 
very different styles of map design
I think if you took Mumbai and squished it so that it’s a cylinder instead of a flat circle, it might be sort of similar size? It’s kind of hard to say since they’re so different IMO.
God damn this map was amazing, we gotta talk about the story in this mission (you know what I’m talking about)
so the ICA is gone, for real this time. This is going to have some profound effects on the future of the franchise. IO went all in on this so I doubt it will be retconned. This feels like closure if I’m being honest, and this game is so good it would be deserving of the honor of the last hitman game if that’s what they end up doing
