I pre-ordered this on amazon days ago and it is sold out! Doesn't look like my order is coming today either.

Huh, never seen this before. On the PS5, the disc only has about 13 GB on it. After the drive spun down it's now downloading in the background.

Why doesn't EGS allow me to activate the Trinity Pack add-on and why is the Hitman 1 Access Pass thingy missing altogether even though the Store shows I own it?

Glad to see the carryover isn't just a me problem. I guess I'll hang tight while it (hopefully) gets ironed out soon.

Looks like it's still borked. It's not seeing my Hitman 2 progress.

I'll wait. I'm not in a rush.

Yea, they haven't posted any updates on Twitter about it being back up yet and no timeframe given. I'd like to play the game but without the progress transfer, I'm holding off since once you're able to complete the transfer, it'll wipe anything you've done prior to it being completed.

If you don't care about the progress transfer, you can play with no issues. However, if you have a ton of progress in Hitman 2 and want that in Hitman 3, you'll need to wait until the service is running because when you complete the transfer, it wipes your progress, Hitman 3 content included.

On the Series X. You can buy the Hitman 1 goty pass for $30 from within the Hitman 3 launcher. If you go to the MS marketplace directly it's $60.

I'm ready now!

The cg cutscenes are trash quality and riddled with compression, Jesus christ devs if you're going to have pre rendered cutscenes in this day and age don't have them be sub DVD quality. Gamma levels are fucked too

Screw it, I'm going in. If I have to do some stuff again when the carryover is working then so be it.

Only played the Dubai mission so far...this being my first real dive into a Hitman game, man the amount of freedom and wealth of things at your disposal to get the job done is so cool. The sandbox element of this is kind of already blowing my mind...

It was awesome to come up with what I thought was a foolproof plan but then have it blow up in my face and I had to completely adapt and change on the fly or say fuck it and just try the most direct route lol.

Really gonna enjoy this, I can tell....

The game does not seem to like my undervolt. Crashed during the opening cutscene and the start of Dubai after I skipped the cutscene.

Tried to run the benchmark and Dartmoor worked fine but it crashed during the Dubai benchmark. Took off my UV and it's no longer crashing during the Dubai benchmark.

Booted up the Series X version. I was able to get all of the Hitman 2 levels in, not going to even bother with the progress transfer until the issue is fixed, although my IOI account linked up fine. The store is telling me that I have to buy the Hitman 2016 GOTY transfer pack despite me already owning it? Is this a known issue or do I have to reinstall Hitman 2016 as well?

Also, I checked my inventory real quick and I noticed I have a suit called "The Green Streak" that I don't recognize. I don't believe it was a pre-order suit, but it does seem Xbox themed so I wonder if it's a console exclusive. Does anyone know if the PS5 or PC versions have a unique suit like this?

Carryover still broken for everyone else?
Yep.

Depends whether you've claimed and downloaded the Hitman 1 Legacy Pack from Hitman 1 before?

If not, you'll need to do that. Hitman 2 just needs you to own a version of it to claim the related access pass.
Yeah, on PS4. I have, since I had previously unlocked Hitman 1 levels in Hitman 2.

It shows all the levels unlocked in the Destinations menu but says I need to buy access to Hitman 1/2 in the Campaigns menu?

I'll wait until the transfer can detect my Hitman 2 account. Looking at my level in 2, then seeing Level 1 on 3 is a little off. Got some unlocks from masterys I'd love to use in the new levels.

Can log into my IOI account, but as many others have noted, it's not detecting my account.

Is carryover important if I've only played Hitman 2 for an hour or so? I only have one or two unlocks from mastery that I'm not bothered about having to get again.

Thanks, will check again after work. Question for you though - is it known if the carryover is just for Hitman 1/2 progress, or will it also overwrite any Hitman 3 progress you might have made so far? Wondering if it's safe to start playing Hitman 3 and then do the carryover later, but don't want to try it if the carryover process will erase any progress made in Hitman 3 pre-carryover.

I have a Blue Streak suit on PS4.

Do you have in game hints on? I'm in the same boat and wanted to know if I should just jump in.

Going to wait, I admittedly don't have that much progress to carry over but it's enough for me to not want to lose it.

Really disappointing they couldn't have just made the process live a few days ago.

That's odd. I'm having issue with the access pass for H2:G so I'm guessing there's still some kinks to sort out. You should just need to have downloaded the Legacy pass before, and then own Hitman 2 to get access. So you're definitely good insofar as the guide. I'd wait for a bit to see if it sorts itself out when the progression stuff is resolved.

Thanks, will check again after work. Question for you though - is it known if the carryover is just for Hitman 1/2 progress, or will it also overwrite any Hitman 3 progress you might have made so far?

It will nuke whatever Hitman 3 progress has been made:
We recommend that you perform the carryover process before you start playing HITMAN 3, because the process will wipe any HITMAN 3 progress you have made.

Successfully linked my Hitman 2 game in Hitman 3 but not my progression on all the levels :(

How yall did it?
Simple: we didn't 😂

The progression transfer system is down and has been since launch so we're all stuck waiting for that to go up. If you start Hitman 3 and then do the progress transfer from 2, it will delete whatever progress you made in 3 before that point.

I suppose I should see an option for Hitman 1 in the main menu if everything worked?
In which case EGS effed something up.

Lets say I don't care about carrying over the progress of the previous games but just want to be able to play them in 3.

Still need to do the transfer? Shouldn't it just know like every other game on Xbox?

Also I don't think I ever made an IO account when I played Hitman 2. Do I have to log into Hitman 2 with my new account so I can see it in 3?

Why does this have to be such a mess? 🤔
