So we shouldn't play this until this carryover site gets sorted out right? Haven't played 1 or 2 but bought them so I can access the content in 3. Will be playing on PS5.

You can jump in to levels from activities on PS5. Hope they add more activities over time for challenges and stuff.

I'm glad my copy hasn't shown up yet. Maybe the transfer site and game servers will be smoother by the time it does.

This just doesn't make sense to me. They specifically did a worldwide timed release to be ready for the launch.
But then you take the progression site and the game online at the same time for everyone worldwide?

A couple questions:

Can I just buy Hitman 2 Gold access pass or do I have to buy both?

Do I have to install Hitman 1 Access Pass in my epic games library?

No eligible HITMAN 2 accounts found.

Lol, thanks IOI. I'm 100% sure I'm logged into the right account since I just checked last night if everything was in order and it was.

Ok, you don't need to have Hitman 1 or 2 installed on PS5 to access their levels it seems. Just pop Hitman 3, go to campaign, click on one of their levels and download the access pack.

I knew the website and servers would crash the way they were doing this. They should have let people transfer their progress on the website in advance at least. Now they've just released a game no-one will want to play yet because their progress will be overwritten later on if they do

I see a trial for the game on PSN now. Is that the free equivalent so people can play the enhanced earlier levels like 2 had?

You will need to download Hitman 1 and redeem+download the Legacy pack from inside of it to get the Hitman GOTY Access Pass in 3.
If digital, the Hitman 2 access pack should be free for whichever elements of Hitman 2 you own.

It just doesn't make sense. They shouldn't be priced so that they're equal to the game. You can't play that content without also owning Hitman 3 so how is it fair to charge the equivalent of a game for them?

They need to re-evaluate the team that's making the decisions on pricing because this is ridiculous.

HITMAN 2 being that much even now is fucking crazy, but I think us fans shouldn't forget nobody actually bought it when it came out, so I guess they're trying to treat it as a new game...?

Should be just $30 each.

If I recall correctly.... the hitman 1 access pass for hitman 2 was cheaper than hitman 1 is for hitman 3

No one. Impossible to know the servers would get DDOSd. Yepp.

I didn't have to buy/download any access pass or whatever on PS4. The levels of Hitman 1 and 2 are already playable without me having to do anything.

edit: I'm an idiot. Only the 'free' levels work without an access pass.

Dumbfucks at IOI.
Yeah, genuinely don't understand why they didn't launch this a few days in advance. it still probably would've gotten overloaded at launch but people would've had a period of time where they could've carried over their progress

(note: don't approve of the phrasing of calling them dumbfucks, there probably were reasons for not launching the site earlier)

how do you get stuff like the requiem suit in hitman 3, is it tied to the account linking thing?

You'd think they'd learn this because like...this is the third time this has happened. HITMAN 2 kinda avoided this if you bought the editions that came with DLC because you could play it early, but for regular folks, launch day just didn't work.

They should have allowed the transfer option to be available at least 24 hours before the launch of the game.

Does the hitman 2 gold access pass contain the expansion pass for hitman 2? Or do I need to snag that one as well?

i really dont understand it: i bought the hitman 2 gold edition. and i was able to download all the hitman 1 levels (minus the patient dlc) for free.
so will i be able to transfer only the h2 levels to h3?
