Hitman 3can import your item unlocks, Mastery Levels, XP, and such carried over from the first two games. Butthe websitewhich runs this got slammed, hard, aswe reported yesterday. You could play Hitman 3 without importing your previous progress straight away, but then your Hitman 3 progress would be wiped when you did get around to importing. So would you wait to start playing, or start straight away then lose that progress?

The other big issue going round is that some people have been getting disconnected from the Hitman server which tracks persistent progression stuff. In this case, the game interrupts you with a message to reconnect, play offline, or return to the main menu. If you play offline, it won’t track XP for Mastery Levels and that.

After our post yesterday,Io tweeteda note that if you completed the progression import process then received a notice that it failed, your account would be placed in a queue to actually do it, and that was it, you just had to wait. A few hours later, they noted they were still working on things.

“We hope many of you are enjoying the game & we’re continuing to make progress on fixing server issues,” they saidon Twitterat 11:01pm. “We want to get you (& your progress) in the game ASAP.”
