From the company that brought you Deepwater Horizon, BP presents: The Neon Duck.

The good news about the Neon Duck is that it could be the last TikTok Drop IO do.
Seems like it ended up being too much of a pain in the ass for combatglue to ensure that there were at least some streams available to claim it on.

Exactly. Theyāre using the same ones every roadmap and meanwhile, some got rerun only once.
The annoying thing is, they could easily fit them all into the schedule, and still allow for new CelebrETs to run without anything taking the spotlight from them. Plus it would be almost something to play every single week of the year.
Hereās how Year 5 could have looked if every ET was going live (bold and italicād ETs are ones that wonāt come this year or arenāt scheduled yet):
@Combatglue If there is a Year 6 - please make this something that happens.

I just noticed: with the exception of The Deceivers - which was already ran this year and was reworked from solo ETs - every ET that was originally built around having two targets is running during this season: The Procurers, The Ex-Dictator (and The Gold Digger), and The Surgeons. Considering the season is of the High Stakes, and the emphasis on card games due to Le Chiffreās inclusion, is the presence of all the double targets in the same season supposed to represent a two-of-a-kind theme? Or a double down/double-or-nothing theme?

Ok, I can understand then adding in the Splitter, but we just had the Banker, what is the deal with an immediate rerun?

It could be that we get another preview for the Bond game around that time. I think they did mention gameplay would be shown in the summer.
PS:
Gamescom is August 20-24.

Nice to see that the VHS tape still isnāt named correctly.
Iām gonna be real here, this looks a bitā¦desperate? Not sure how else to put it. Le Chiffre re-running so soon, The Splitter being re-run, the fact theyāre advertising the iOS port now, it all just speaks to me as if itās trying too hard to catch everyoneās attention.
Maybe Iām being too cynical about all this, but this new roadmap has had the precise opposite effect on me; Iām not hyped for the new (re-run) contentā¦Iām justā¦slightly curious and confused.

It seems like this was always likely the plan given the conspicuous gaps in the weekly ET schedule between The Ex-Dictator/Appraiser and The Politician/Chameleon, so I wonder why they didnāt announce it with the initial roadmap? Maybe they thought it would make it too crowded looking?
And weirder still is the choices of dates for the Twitch Drops. I wouldāve thought it would make more sense to make them line up with the reactivated Celeb ETs, like how the 100k Casino Chip drop was active during the whole first Banker run.

I feel like Iām playing the Pyramid Game with this updated roadmap: Nonsensical. Baffling. Perplexing. Would feel less confused trying to figure out if quantum entanglement is responsible for emergent consciousness. How do we convey how odd this is?

I did let Le Chiffre live, so Iāll be able to kill him now.

Maybe to somewhat bury the JCVD of it all, so that way there was no risk of it being mentioned in articles about The Banker.

What happens for people who completed The Banker in the past month? Usually the re-run is year 2/3/4 so your status is refreshed, but this is in the same year soā¦ will be be unable to play it? Or will they call it (2025 Mk II)?

Not so bad to make a rerun of The Banker so early, especially knowing that a lot of people dodged the mission after the surprise poisoning scene 
A welcomed opportunity to them all to finally complete the mission

I am wondering if the upcoming āThe Bunkerā will be āreactiveā or āsecondā.
Personally, if āThe Bankerā is going to be āreactiveā, I hope that Year 5 Celebrity ET āThe Dropā and āThe Undyingā will also be reactive, as I have missed the opportunity to play them because they were released before the release date on Switch2.
These two are not likely to be distributed in āRe run Galoreā if it is as usual, so I would like another opportunity for Switch2 users.

Might be because of the iOS port, they probably wanted to make sure it was ready before August. Iād wager the Le Chiffre ET is running again specifically because of the iOS port.
