Who the hell is going to buy this game before the end of 2016? Episodic gaming my arse.
Square Enix are just trying to drip feed a AAA game with no guarantee of quality or it being finished unless sales are huge.
First level of Hitman might be amazing and the rest could be with a unexperienced third party studio because "costs", just remember Arkham Knight and Mortal Combat X on PC.

Can't help yourself can you 'you' straight under my post it's ****ing simple English grammer innit.
You are quite correct and it is saying DX11 but I have a sneaking suspicion that we will see DX12 at some point. I would be surprised if we see it from the off but maybe a couple of months after and a good selling point for this episodic game I guess. Maybe all the rumors are wrong (including my very own site) and we will all look like numptys
@Tommy - I give up and if you want to think I was pointing the finger at you, fine, I will go with it as this is getting stupid and you are not contributing to the thread at all and just making it worse.
I have bought the first episode and will see if it is any good. If it isn't, I have only lost a tenner and if it is good, I can pay in installments
one thing is for sure if crossfire doesnt work AMD will get it in the neck 
im not sure if its even a good candidate for dx12? was hitman ever a cpu heavy game?
id rather see a totalwar or even a mmo that has dx12
been playing some blades and soul l8ly and that has a setting where u can set what fps it runs at when in the background, i love that, all games should have that!

IIRC and I can check but I do recall Hitman Absolution being quite CPU heavy.
Yes its just a coincidence that AMD sponsered games use a sensible level of Tessellation, the "developers" always seem to know what they are doing with Tessellation and are not lazy to implement it sensibly.

So now it isn't a DX12 title?
Half the games on the planet have rumours of DX12 patches coming but up and until now what I've read here was stating it was a DX12 game as if it's a fact. But that isn't the case?

If anything it's a bit of both but don't have a problem with you apportioning the blame at my feet if it makes you feel better, no grudges here X.

Hitman AB was a very demanding title when running with max IQ.
Well I won't be buying the game, I have no interest in supporting this practice, by the sounds of it.... you are essentially paying for missions that have been cut out of the main game
While I agree they should just serve up the full title as at worst the episodic nature is causing widespread negativity that will impact sales, however (while I think I'm in the minority)I don't really complete the vast majority as I lose interest with the repetition most games have, maybe this is right up my street not paying for something I don't finish-saying that, I ended up completing AB by resorting to Rambo mode with all out shooting.
This is what AMD supposedly said:
I ran with it, as it seems legit although I can't find who at AMD said it.

Yep these coicidences keep happening yet there is no proof.most of us were not born yesterday but some on this forum were.

arrives.....
Yeah I must admit, I really have to force myself to complete a lot of games in the last year or 2 but still, I rather not have games done this way, it is a terrible way to do things just like day 1 DLC i.e. content removed from the base game just to make an extra buck or 2, pure greed and nothing else.
We need to go back to the true and proper DLC ways like bad company 2 vietnam i.e. something developed after the main game release!
haha, I give up with AB about 3-4 missions in iirc, it was just a bore fest.
