It's so annoying I have to wait another year to play the game. I hate exclusivity
Sorry to rage on your wonderful channel but this update really screws PC players. It forces them to rebuy hitman 2 in order to access it in hitman 3. Their reasoning is completely irrelevant when it's contrary to what they've been saying (and still say) on their website. Big f u from io interactive, five days before release
So how about customers in Asia 😔
Wait so do you get the 1st and 2nd one with the third one? Or do you need the 1st and 2nd one to play them with the better graphics? Can someone please tell me!
so will i need to log into a IOI account on my console than go to the website? I hope it isn't a pain to log in
Been watching your videos all time for hitman 1 and 2 for guides , you are my first go – to if i needed help .. thank you so much and keep up your amazing work , waiting your hitman 3 videos and guides ❤️👍
So this release has completely screwed PC owners. According to their latest blog, you own Hitman 2 Gold Editon Steam for PC you have to pay roughly $20-$30 AUD to just get the levels for Hitman 3, or roughly $10-$15 AUD for the Standard Edition. This is complete crap. If you own a game, you have to pay extra to get something you ALREADY OWN. Is IO seriously saying there’s no way to link a game payed for on Steam to an IO account and then link your Hitman 3 game to that account?? If you can choose to move content from Hitman 2 to Hitman 3, you had to have PAYED for the game to do this, but yet apparently you can just get progression and no levels UNLESS you pay the 80% discount – which sure isn’t enough but it’s stupid. Why is this?? Many other devs for different games have gotten around this, I don’t understand :l
Not on steam owned copies. F you WB you greedy bastards
Well see you guys in another year after it has released on steam. Ain’t buying into the epic crap.
I became a new member
Damn I love to kill my Targets with the electric Phone :/
Kinda feel like IO seriously screwed over PC players. No VR, and we have to repurchase Hitman 2 content. Even though IO should already have the fact we OWN Hitman 2 on our IO accounts? How the hell could Hitman 2 progression transfer no problem but somehow THE FACT WE OWN THE FUCKING GAME doesn't transfer with the same progression data? IO screwed PC gamers by switching to EGS for no apparent reason.
I own both, Hitman Game of the Year Edition & Hitman 2 Gold Edition on Xbox. Do I need to have either these installed on my console for Hitman 3 to detect I own them?
Epic Store will hinder the sales. Im getting in on console instead, ant stand Epic
They might be getting rid of the phone because of dubai with all the water it could bug out the game if too many people dies with it, or there is a super obvious exploit with some new gameplay mechanic. Also what a big F you to PC gamers first the epic exclusive bullshit then no (as of yet) PCVR news no the people that get the EGS version have to buy the content again.
Do somebody no if i buy h3 on egs can i cary over my h2 and legacy pack in it?
Great no offline play, who even cares about the leaderboards anyway dumb af.
Also was actually considering buying of egs but they want us to pay for hitman 2 again, lol get fucked.
if i purchased the legacy pack on Hitman 2 will I still get Hitman 1 on Hitman 3
Dammit I have slow download speeds and pc can't even preload?? That sucks im gonna have to wait 2 days!
sadly there’s no info about Hitman 3 on PC – Steam
I don’t know if I want to do this. I might have to since I don’t know if we will be getting the old elusive targets again and I don’t want to lose out on those suits, but still. I didn’t end up playing the hitman 2 missions until I had finished all the first games ones again. It was so much extra content and sooo worth it. I almost feel I’m robbing myself of content but again I don’t wanna lose the elusive target suits
I think I'd rather keep my whole trilogy on one platform (Steam) – guess some of us will have to wait another year …
Releasing the game halfway through the day is a bit strange no?
So, I own both physical versions of H1-H2 on PS4, but I will start H3 on the PS5. Do I have to re-install the whole H1-H2 disc versions on PS5 to get all the legacy locations within H3?
I can't not find pre-order page for Hitman 3 on PS store?
I really appreciate the effort you put into providing all the information for us.
I heard there is a delay to hitman 2 on epic meaning players will have to buy it at a later date (with discount). Has anyone heard of this?
Why did you breeze over the whole having to re buy Hitman 2 thing on pc?
Hey, could anybody help me?
Under my Dad's Xbox Live Gold account, years ago I got Hitman 1 for free (as accounts were linked under Xbox Family). Whilst tied to that family, I myself bought Hitman 2 (Gold Edition) and transferred the Hitman 1 maps onto Hitman 2 via the legacy packs.
Since then, I have bought a Series X, meaning that I have my own Xbox Live Gold account and no longer have access to games shared via the Xbox Family. With Hitman 3, I will be able to get Hitman 2 content free, but I am unsure about Hitman 1.
Would I be able to get Hitman 1 content free because I have the legacy packs, or will I have to pay again? Thanks
Any onfo about how the trophies/achievements will carryover?
I’m not buying Hitman 2 again on top of buying Hitman 3 at full price, I already bought it twice. Once for console and once on Steam after getting a new PC. I’m not playing it with a gamepad either because of all of the precise aiming you need to do. Guess I’ll just save my money or wait 12 entire sodding months for a Steam version. I hope IO are happy with their ill-gotten bribe. The loss of PC sales will easily negate that.
Wait so if I have legesy on hitman 2 can I carry that over too, or do I have to own one?
As a PC gamer, I don't want to participate in an exclusivities race on PC, so I prefer that my purchase to count towards the second big wave of sales that will take place at the Steam release. For what it's worth, it's one of the only ways I see to show my disagreement with this practice.
We've already accepted a lot of things, it may not be too late not to accept the appropriation of communities by force of money.
The announcement, a few days before the release, that we're going to have to buy the content of Hitman 2 even though we already have it on Steam, is clearly the last straw. There's not that problem on consoles, the limits of these PC exclusives are clearly in front of us here, the consumer has to pay the price, and I really refuse to be part of that.
To nuance anyway, I understand very well the choice of IOI, when you're indie and you're offered a check for several millions to finance your game, how can you refuse?
(sorry if my english isn't perfect)
So I have hitman 1&2 on PS4, I pre ordered hitman 3 for my ps5. Does this mean I have to re do every challenge from the first 2?
pre ordered the deluxe edition off the xbox store anybody know when i can start to install it ?
is there a Starter Pack like HITMAN 2 ?
I get that must be a pain for some people…personally I've been playing Hitman 1 2 on PS4, same will go the 3rd so that's fine.
I’d completely understand if the game was pvp and it was op but it’s a single player game if you don’t want to use it you don’t have to I completely disagree with their decision but either way I’m hyped
Thanks for the explanation, Freeze. Looking forward to playing Hitman 3 very soon. I’m sure you’re right that these lengthy instructions could be simplified. Console-wise it seems to work like the previous Hitman.
I never preorder games, except Rockstar's one because i'm sure they are bomb, even before viewing a test of them.
I loved every Hitman games, a bit less Absolution, but it is what it is, and none can blame them to try something new.
I will preorder this one, i'm sure if they made their move on EGS instead of Steam is because they probably have a better financial deal, for that none can blame them either.
It's not cool to don't possess it next to the other ones on Steam, but i'll get over it. The only infuriating thing is to have to buy H2 at 20% price to get it on EGS inside H3, especially if the only way to progress in it after the progression carryover is done is to play it in H3.
See ya the 20th boys !!!
I'm so confused, I just want to know if it'll work the same way it did for the Hitman 2 legacy pack, that was so simple, you opened Hitman 1 and clicked the Legacy pack free section on the home page.
Will you make a video to tell us how to do the progression carryover
Waaaaaack. I have a pc now, and I got Hitman 2 but I grinded that on Xbox along with with getting everything from the first game AGAIN!! Now I have to do it again again. But I missed all the elusive targets on pc. This is trash.
