HITMAN 3 announcements

Did I miss a joke or something? I was just a few days away :sweat_smile:

So lemme get this straight, 2021 PC Players:

  • Platform with no Discussions, Guides, Reviews sections or in-app game redeeming, I think no in-game overlay, and is possibly a trojan horse for the CCP
  • No Preload
  • No VR
  • Have to re-buy H2 + expansion

:flushed::sweat_smile: :joy: :rofl: :joy: :sob: :sob: :cry: :disappointed_relieved: :sob:

I think the answer’s yes, but do I still get the H1 GOTY Pass if I pre-order my key from a third party site like GreenMan?

Oh and since you are an Aussie you will get it on the 21st as well.

I mean it isn’t a big deal to me but it is a crap sundae for the PC users.

I was deliberately ignoring the forum to avoid spoilers, but after hearing about the repurchasing of previous HITMAN games on the Epic Store, I felt like I needed to express how dumb this is (although I’m obviously not the first to do so). Thankfully I’m a PS4 player, so it doesn’t directly affect me, but I’m floored by how badly-handled the marketing for this campaign has been on PC. First the one-year Epic exclusivity, then the reluctance to admit anything about HITMAN 3 being PSVR exclusive during the VR announcement. After all that they pull this stunt FIVE DAYS before releasing it. While HITMAN 2016 being episodic was also a controversial move that lost some support among consumers, I never got the impression that it was done for any reason other than a debatably misguided vision of how the game should be best experienced. This, however, seems to show some real corporate greed at the expense of the audience. Come on, IO, you’re better than this.

TL;DR Re-purchasing games = bad

No, The Constant freezes time and appears as the train explodes and he gives you a lecture then puts you in stasis

My God I think hearing The Constant say he wants to get off on me will be what greats me in Hell.

I just redid my account for this progression transfer business, unfortunately I can’t register Sniper Assassin anymore for completionist sake but oh well, but I noticed after registering with Hitman 1 booting up Hitman 2 linked my IOI account to it automatically since it was connected to my PSN. But why can’t a modified version of that system grant us access passes? If you link Hitman 2 or even Hitman 1 to your IOI account then boot up Hitman 3 and link that, then just give us the levels you detected!

didn’t really know what thread to put this in and don’t really know what he was talking about in the video. but in this video pushing Rangan of the building is cinematic and the video apparently has something to do with hitman 3 so maybe that could be a new format for the kill.

it was a very stupid bug, that’s his point with the video

Though it’s funny. Never saw/experienced this.
I think he meant whether IOI addressed this and the rest of old bugs, or left them in the game and brought a dozens more of new bugs in HITMAN 3

Does anyone know when we can expect reviews to roll out? I don’t pre order or purchase games until I get a good idea of a game’s quality. While I have no doubt that Hitman 3 will be amazing, I’ve just gotten burned too many times.

Monday I think but I’m not sure.

She sounds almost completely the same! I couldn’t even really tell that it was someone else when I was watching the stream on Twitch.

Wait, what? Is that true? I thought they said on some ā€œreturning actorsā€ things that they will be the same?

EDIT:

Apperantly, for Hitman 1 and 2, it was Michelle Asante. Sadly, I liked her. But Im sure Isaura Barbe-Brown will do a great job to, never forgett Jane Perry wouldnt be here if they had never switched Dianas actor.

It“s still weird though. Changing the voice actress for one of the main cast 2/3 down the road. Wonder what was the reason :thinking:

Now this lunatic is saying Hitman 3 should’ve released on digital a month before physical, so people don’t make rant videos, but there’s a good food for thought. Is the day one patch for Mendoza and Romania or just for the legacy locations?

The patch contains some/all of the Legacy locations. The German streamer confirmed during the Twitch stream that they were not prompted to download a Day One patch before playing (this occurred when they first ran into the ā€˜Oh Snap!’ dev thingy left in the game). Link to what I’m talking about since you can’t link and use spoiler tags.

As we now know, they were able to play Mendoza and Romania. Therefore they can’t be in the patch.

It also explains why the Access Passes aren’t in the in-game store yet (also confirmed by the streamer) - because the game would probably crash if anyone tried to unlock something that isn’t in the game’s data.
