Wow, letting Bateson go is such a stupid move that I'm struggling to come up with a possible explanation as to why IO would shoot themselves in the foot like this. The new guy is not even close and doesn't fit 47 at all. Sounds more like a typical cliched 'badass emotionless FPS' character than 47. f*ck that.

Bateson was the heart and soul of that character. Without him, there really is no 47. I doubt I'll even bother with this game. It's plagued with bad design choices.

How can you trust them with anything, if they don't respect the IP enough to bring back the iconic voice actor, who was available and eager to do it.

Hopefully they put in a lot of melee weapons in their. A thing that really bothered me was that you couldn't take any knifes with you and use them in a diffrent mission. I always liked the kitchen knife in Blood Money, but I hope you can make it or any other blade part of your basic kit. Not having the Silverballer might be okay, but not being able to bring a knife with you is pathectic. Also I hope you can collect weapons again. But I am worried about the level design most. I hope there are lots and lots of ways of doing every mission, many differnt ways, builings to use/climb on. Blood Money was brilliant, but way too limited to completely satisfy me.

f*cking idiots. If they can't get that simple element right then I really hold no hope for the rest of the game. Why the f*ck would you need to call in an LA casting director I don't f*cking know, he seems like a f*cking dipsh*t aswell based on that trailer.

That is terrible, if it's true. Definitely a deal breaker for me.

I also heard that he spammed them with emails, wondering what was going on. He even said he would do it for free at one point. Eventually he asked why did they drop him. And they continued to ignore him.

I can't verify if this is true or not, but I've seen it been posted a lot when the Bateson issue comes up. This is all heartbreaking.

[Warlord.]

Well that sealed it. That's pretty low of IO.

I'm not getting the game.

What a bunch of idiots at IO

[Ryda King]

Yeah, I'm not supporting that shlt. I'll watch a walkthrough of it on youtube or something. No way in hell am I giving them my money now.

It would be class if there would be a massive boycott of this game until the voice gets re-done by Bateson, see what fan power can do. No chance of that though is there, people will still be buying it.

[badboy_zay]

in that case... piratebay here I come
I think I have seen a lot of petition from fan who want to bring him back. but then IOI didn't give a sh*te

It seems that changing voice actors for games is becoming real popular. It does not really bug me much about the new voice, even though when I heard his voice and saw his face I was like "Who the f*ck is this guy?" Afterall at humans we identify a lot of things with sound, which it is obvious that a lot of us would be annoyed with the decision.

But it isn't the voice I am mad about, it is the fact that they did not let him participate in the project altogether. Aleast with Splinter Cell Blacklist, Ironside is still helping the new guy with what to get right with Sam's character. Bateson begged to get in and IO just shut him down. That must be alot of desperation if he offered to do it for free!

What a f*cking disgrace seriously. Now I bet the gameplay would be good, I still plan to get the game regardless, but will they get the money out of my own pocket..probably not. Might just wait until it is a Chirstmas present from someone else I know, it is only a 1 month wait.

Damn You IOI for changing David as a voice actor of 47. You Won't get a f*cking cent from me! f*ck you very much!!!

[Indi]

Never played the original Hitman games massively, but what they did to David is a disgrace. Absolute disgrace.

Game looks badass. Sucks they dropped Bateman with no reason. Still going to buy it.

A pirated version will be my remedy of lack of David...

Quite a lot of options I see. Writing a guide for this game is going to be quite the challenge.
