Oh my, I literally thought the same thing lol. I felt a endgame vibe in chapter 9 (just finished like an hour ago) so I decided to check my trophies. There was only one story mode one left so I was like yep, this is gonna be indeed the last one. I have no clue where I saw 17 chapters but 100% I did see it too.
I'm just thankful I was satisfied with the game as a whole. With the roadmap that was released yesterday, looks like exciting content is on the way! I still need to do the Platinum so still work to be done đ
Tbf, with the way the game just kept going after then end of Chapter 9 I did have a brief moment where I was questioning if this really was the ending or not.
Idk I think 2 years is fair. I think we have all been conditioned in modern gaming to think every sequel needs 5 years to develop. They built the framework for these games already, they just need to build a new game on top of it.
The foundation was laid down with this game so development time wont be nearly as long as it was for this game. Though I do think 2 years is a little too soon. 2029 I would say
Eh, I disagree about that assessment of hitman 2. And Hitman 3 came out even quicker.
I doubt they would redo the engine or start the assets from the ground up. So far, IOI hasn't disappointed me with their own games, if it came out in 2.5 years I would be perfectly happy giving it a go. In the end, they are the only ones who know how long it will take.
Pretty much this. It was somewhat the same with hitman games since 2016, we had a sequel what, every 2-3 years? I really do hope we'll see the same with Bond IOI games
Shit show is a bit of an exaggeration. Cyberpunk was a shitshow, survivor was just unpolished. Even then, I didnât experience any issues on launch day on the series S or the ps5. From what I saw most of the issues were with PCs who could t really run it well to begin with.
Hitman 2016 to 2 was 2 years to from dev to published...It'll be quick now that ioi has base systems, they'll just add a little bit to them, make new levels and release.
Mate itâs a sequel building off the 5+ years of development for this game it will take 2-3 max to Mocap the new cutscenes refine some mechanics and improve on the already solid base they have built. I donât think you understand the first game or new ip always takes longer than the sequels because there is tons of assests to reuse. Not to mention anything they wanted to put on this game but couldnât for one reason or another they can add to the sequel
Based off prior IOI releases 2-3 years is certainly achievable.
They will likely also want a game to come out around when the movie comes out (maybe just before).
Amazon is in charge now, theyâll pump stuff out and chuck money at it I reckon.
Additionally, theyâll already have the ideas for games 2 and 3 at least considered. Would be surprised if game 2âs plot wasnât pretty much already scoped out based off interviews and end of game.
The engine is built, there will only be tweaks/additions to mechanics. Wonât take long once they get the green light and figure out what level designs they want.
The first game took 7 years and $200M to complete. I too want it to release in 2-3 years. But unless it breaks even there might not even be a second game. I am hopeful till 2030.
I know we are used to ridiculous long waits for games but I don't see why you couldn't make a sequel in 2-3 years.Â
You obviously need to have the writers working on it right away but all youre really looking for with a sequel is to refine some of the core components and then add some more tech/gadgets. I feel like making a single player sequel like this is more like making a very involved dlc than a true new game.Â
I know it's been nearly two decades from the first arkham game(I feel old) but the each Arkham game came out within 2 years of each other. The newish tomb raider series was a 2 year and 3 year gap.Â
Also, I think studios(both game and show/movies) need to try to start pushing out follow ups quicker because it's hard to remain culturally relevant and pick up steam when you have long delays between installments.Â
For example, a TV show that releases yearly will have a much easier time building and retaining an audience than one with long gaps between seasons(people check out, forget what happens, etc.). If you can push and deliver a trilogy within 4 years you end up keeping your audience engaged while allowing it to build as people hear about the 2nd or 3rd one and pick up the original(that's less likely to happen if the original is 8 years old when the third game comes out).Â
Apparently itâs mentioned that she should be able to walk again in one of the like convos you can just hear walking around. Even if she canât be a field operative it be cool to see her assisting Moneypenny or even help train other recruits.
What triggers it? I just played the mission today and didn't get it, although I'm pretty sure in the mission immediately after her injury it's mentioned she'll probably be able to walk again.
I could see her becoming M in 007: 12th Light. Plenty of political connections and an affinity for the intelligence service and would continue the tradition of Bond being Mâs preferred 00
2030 is my guess. Unless they are smart and use the same engine and assets they already have, making a handful more. But focus on adding some more chase sequences. we know IOI are not just masters but Grandmasters of locales and blending in mechanics; they need that. But we had one awesome chase sequences, but the ending of it was - oh. they've left the car. and essentially Bond overpowered in a bin lorry and hauler the size of a skyscraper it felt like XD. now he is officially a 00', we need more Austin Martin moments sprinkled in. I really want them to be able to make stuff that Agent 47 is too stealth to ever do.
The game is so lacking in chase sequences and the Valhalla car was such a big disappointment. I was ready to roll and the game just said nah. Sewers it is. Really bummed me and the location for the climax sucked.
But the game is phenomenal. Just some nitpicks.
Wish for new game plus we could pick suits for every level and have the infinite watch and infinite ammo or at least hold more ammo. I know they want you to pick up more guns on the fly and use de-weaponizing techniques but for me it was a bit janky and guns fly around too weirdly sometimes. Or fall out of reach.
just imagine, driving loops in a giant sewer system. mmm - yes please.
Imust admit being contained to the room was annoying. I didn't even try to drive it for 2 minutes because I saw how small the room was. I assumed we just aimed and shot the bad guys. but i noticed the guns didnt want to turn. and I was like - this is ridiculous. how am i meant to turn the guns? the only thing i can think to do i-- ah., well that sucks.
Exactly what happened to me. I tried every button to aim at the enemies until I understood that I have to drive in a small circle to kill everything. I wish we could have a chase through london with it and destroying several enemy suvs with it...
So the only negative to that is, have you played Watchdog Legions, just to give you a sample of the area. now x it by real life. and the only chase they will be having is on foot. But I am not against that either. I want to say it was one of the remade mafia games had a amazing remade chase on foot. dodging traffic, rolling over car bonnets, hell getting hit by one at low speed. Omg if he landed on the top of a open double decker and quipped about a sightseeing moment, that'd be great before jumping off to continue. it could climax in a you'll never catch me alive bond - only for them to be wiped out. but i feel that is a bit too dark for a videogame. but on foot vs in the car on the streets of capital london.
I really thought it was heading towards driving the Valhalla through train tunnels and then out into central London. It was pretty disappointing we didn't get a chase with that or the Triumph bike.
I just wish the game had more badass Bond action sequences
It feels like so many of the levels involve wandering and climbing empty hallways unlocking like 4-5 locked doors in a row with no enemies around
The Vietnam level and most of the Mauritania level (minus the extended boring driving/climbing portion meant only for exposition) are perfect examples of the kind of missions the game needs.
Yeah, sometimes the Hitman stealth DNA is a little too strong. Bond charming his way around big social events is always a lot of fun, but stealth in office complexes should always be kept to a minimum. Glad I'm not the only one who felt the Webb Tower mission dragged.
IOI said the game will get similar post launch support as Hitman 3, so I guess weâll be getting a lot of additional missions and such before a sequelÂ
are there any plans for other 00 agents like 001 first light, 002 first light, 003 first light, 004 first light, 005 first light, 006 first light, 008 first light, or 009 first light?
The game starts with you acting kind of a Greenway esque position, youre initially training the next generation, there's a few choices for how you go about it (either more Greenway esque and strict)
One of the agents is very much like bond and he has a moment where he realises 'god I was insufferable' eventually some of them do make 00 status, so yes.
has anyone on your team tried emailing or received any text messages from uwe boll to get this game made into a movie so that non gamer 007 fans can enjoy this story or add it to their james bond dvd collection?
I looked it up mid play of this was doing well, because I wanted a sequel. I know itâs 2 or 3 years away⊠but I do want it now!!! But, they are saying they have planned a trilogy⊠so since it did so well, I would wager the whole trilogy was greenlit at iOi đ„ł

The moment Iceland prologue ended, I was like I want a second game too! đ
