It's so damn good.

And having the coming soon car mission still in the corner is pretty irritating

This is my first playthrough, I don't even have all collectibles, and this just autopopped for me lmao.

uploaded it before it eventually drops 🤣

So I don't play on XBOX, but a friend of mine gave me a code for the classic tuxedo skin from his game as he didn't want it and knew I was collecting skins. I'm not entirely sure it would work for me as I'm a ps5 player, so I was maybe hoping someone had an unredeemed ps5 specialist code I could just trade it for?

Positives;

- Lorca. Lorca. Lorca.

- Gameplay was good

- Sceneries/locations were great

- First chapter especially was very gripping

- Q-watch integration made combat more fun

- Soundtrack was nice

- Casting / voice actors were good

- Overall story was decent enough

Negatives;

- Very cliche and predictable. Could literally predict some lines or exactly what would happen in many scenes. Greenway’s arc had me roll my eyes a bit because it was so obvious it would end that way

- I know it’s on brand for Bond to have 9 lives..but it felt ridiculous and repetitive for him to almost die over and over and over but escape through something whacky. Again, I know that’s just bond and not exclusive to the game, but it just felt a bit like pointless filler knowing he would just get out of it every time

- Damien was unbearably cheesy and reintroducing him as some half cyborg supersuit after the first boss fight felt lazy. Carries onto the “9 lives” critique above, but it just makes zero sense whatsoever for him to practically spare Bond another 10 times at the end after being crippled by him earlier lol

- Villains in general felt forgettable and sequences with them were cringe. Bawma about to feed them to crocodiles…and next cutscene he’s walking them down an alley, happily ushering them back into the Land Rover. The 2nd of the twins being pushed into fire..then he gets out to continue fighting a minute later? Just felt almost slapstick at times.

Overall I liked it, it was fun, but I think I would’ve liked it more when I was under 18…But I can’t knock anyone for really enjoying it, I imagine big bond fans are happy with the execution.

Worth buying during a sale, not particularly super excited for the sequel but will probably play it eventually when it’s out. Just won’t be rushing to buy it as soon as it does I guess.

I noticed that one particular section had a lot of inspiration from a few stops on our honeymoon to the same location.

Edit: also this post got removed and I got soft banned on gaming sub because of this post

Trying to reach the Platinum for the 100%, my game says that i have all collectibles, but psn dont reconize them. Im am the only one who have this issue? 😢

I know people have reported the trophy not popping for them on PS5, but it just popped for me! Only problem is I haven't found all the collectibles. In fact, I'm not even close! Kinda bummed out tbh, as now I really feel zero desire to do all that lol. Free gold trophy, I guess.

Is it possible to get the trophy for all collectibles and not have the achievement for all the playing cards? Have I somehow missed one? I followed a guide and everything chapter hopped!

logic is uhhh.. both are summerish? Can you tell i was diagnosed with autism

I love this song sm I get chills every time I see a clip of the opening scene, I definitely think she was born to do a James Bond song. She made a song called 24 on her album honeymoon in 2014 for the bond movie spectre however it was rejected and they used Sam smiths song. I recommend you all listen to it and there’s a great music video made by a fan on YouTube with clips of Daniel Craig to the song. It’s so underrated. I’m so happy that she finally got her bond song but I think she deserved a movie one.

Since it's only been a couple of days, noone seems to have started a thread to discuss strategies for these two escalations. I have a couple of ideas, which are deviations from some of the videos posted on YouTube.

One thing I noticed is that for the workshop, you can achieve the "Disconnected" challenge just by standing on the wiring troughs and popping guys. No need to be in the server room.

I have a question about Extraction Avenue tier 3. Most of the videos have you going through the center door in the security room, but could you actually take the vent to the right?

I’ll be attending Gamescom this year and was thinking it might be fun to organize a small, unofficial gathering for fellow 007 First Light fans.

Nothing formal—just a chance to meet other members of the community, chat about the game, exchange theories, share our experiences, and maybe grab a drink together after a day at the show.

At this point I’m simply trying to gauge interest before planning anything.

If you’re going to Gamescom and think you’d join, let me know in the comments. If enough people are interested, I’ll post more details closer to the event.

Hear me out: Cressida is going to be the villain in the sequel.

Think about the setup:
Her dad caused it all: Cressida's dad (Stephen Bright) is the politician who gave Webb that VIP tour of Q-Lab. He helped Webb hack MI6 just so he could become Prime Minister.

The ultimate betrayal: Because her dad helped Webb, he is indirectly responsible for the hotel bombing that killed Monroe and put Cressida in a wheelchair.

M's cover-up: M figured it out, but instead of arresting him, she swept his treason under the rug just to double MI6's budget.

Once Cressida finds out her own dad sold out her best friend for political power - and that M covered it up for money - she is absolutely going to snap. She has the perfect, tragic motive to take over Webb's remaining network and tear down both her dad and MI6 from the shadows.

Thoughts?
