    It's correct for an agent to use the NATO wristband in the field.

    I always preferred nylon straps. More comfortable on the wrist.

    Yeah I like nylon. I don't love Nato straps though, because of where the buckle ends up on my wrist I find them uncomfortable, I like just normal style straps.

    I prefer steel (be it stainless or pvd) or rubber straps.

    I prefer leather straps on watches but I do like the look of those NATO straps. I still think the Omega from SPECTRE is my favourite but I like the complications on the FL one.

    I love the Spectre watch too, but then I see it in the film and it's so thick it looks like a coke can on his wrist, especially with that nato under it. I remember really noticing it in the train scene where he's showing Madeline the gun.
    Not sure why Omega make them so thick. I was looking at my mate's Speedmaster Racing the other day, and it has a display caseback, but I was baffled to see that the crystal on it is domed rather than flat- so it sits even higher on your wrist than it needs to.

    Oh yeah totally. Quite apart from the fact that I don’t think I could ever justify spending that much on a watch, if it looks massive on Craig's wrist then it would absolutely dwarf mine, so it’ll remain something I can appreciate from afar.

    Apparently Lana Del Ray just registered a song titled “First Light” with ASCAP. Potential title theme song? Del Ray would be one hell of a get.

    That would be huge publicity for the game. Hopefully it doesn't ruin her chances of doing a Bond theme for the film series, she's great.

    Blimey, that would be seriously impressive.

    Yeah I’m not in the gaming world, but from what I’ve seen there’s quite a bit of excitement about FL from gamers, is that right? I guess a fair bit of that comes from it apparently being an extension to the Hitman concept, plus being Bond of course.

    I am wondering how much this overlaps with Michael Wilson and Maibaum’s early Bond 15 treatment, with a young Bond coming out of the Navy and given a mentor in the shape of Lennie James’ character. I think something said he’s an ex-00 as well, so I guess he’ll have been the previous 007; perhaps he’ll die and Bond will take on his number in tribute, as also featured in the 1986 film synopsis.
    Or he’ll turn out to be the villain maybe. I think he’s a key character anyway.
    I am excited and hope you are right

    I think Broccoli and Wilson were consulting on the game prior to the Amazon buy out - I think it was around the time of the 60th Anniversary auction, when they interviewed MGW - he remarked a few times they were working on a new video game.

    So I wouldnt be surprised at all if there was an exchange of ideas.
    Honestly its why i am excited about first light more so then the films as this to me feels like bond 26 with Patrick gibson being the last eon approved actor to play 007

    This is fun, looks like Bond gets an Aston Martin Valhalla, complete with enormous machine guns (video here):

    The Big IO Interactive Interview: Hakan Abrak on James Bond, Dispatch, and the GTA 6 delay

    And Bond is done! The game's completely playable from start to end. We are obviously super busy polishing and bug fixing and whatnot, because we are gunning for spring next year, but the whole game is done. It's been a long journey, six years almost, but I'm very proud that we are here.

    Watching that trailer with the Valhalla gave me SpyHunter vibes. Seeing this big ass gun unfold from the wing. :D I can't wait to get my hands on this game.

    I'm gonna need some help here: precisely which version of the game do I need to preorder to get as much bonus content as possible? I don't think there's a definitive release that gives you everything (e.g. even that insanely priced Golden Gun edition leaves you locked out of the white tux afaik).

    God it was boring. We learn absolutly nothing new, see nothing new (for a "gameplay" focused video), 15 minutes of my life lost. And its a shame because dev vlog is a great thing in general, but they just commenting or saying with words what we already saw 2 month ago (obviously) not work.

    (I havn't saw the Q/A replay yet)
