Maybe this has been answered already and I'm to lazy to read through the entire thread.. I'm really confused about how long after season 7 this is supposed to be? I thought it was supposed to be only a few months after it? But in the show they seem to be talking years?

Day 8 begins and ends at 4:00 p.m. It takes place in New York City two years after Day 7 and Jack Bauer is alive and well. He is officially retired and wants to move to Los Angeles with his daughter and granddaughter. Plans change when an informant provides information that an assassin plans to kill the Iranian President Omar Hassan at a peace agreement between him and President Allison Taylor. Jack is forced to go back to the newly established CTU and begins what it is going to be another bad day.

Ah thanks.

Two years? They said the gap between seasons 7 & 8 was supposed to be really short. They've had shorter IIRC with 18 months.

I *believe* that the current season is said to take place sometime between 18 to 24 months later, but don't quote me on this. I didn't think that an exact time frame was established.

good start so far, could do without the BSG actress & the ex boyfriend douche bag scenes. Imo they add nothing to the plot atm. Unless Jack ends up smashing his face in.

He'll end up being a terrorist later no doubt. It's almost a rule in the 24 plot book that a sibling or spouse of a CTU employee has to be part of the plot. :p

You would think after all the stuff Jack's done for the country, the government would trust him unconditionally. Has he ever let you down?

I've always thought of Jack to be somewhat of a loose cannon, but now with Renee in the picture, he's looking like less and less of a liability by the minute.

    • Yeah, this is absolutely nothing new and EA have done it before. Burnout Paradise, released in 2008, had dynamic advertising billboards that were updated via the internet and targeted people based on location and what EA knew about them from their profile. It was particularly notable for the fact that the Obama presidential campaign ran ads in the game, in an attempt to reach a younger audience who didn't watch broadcast TV any more. It was by no means the first though. Battlefield 2142 from 2006 had the same thing. In fact, Neowin wrote a story about it back then. https://www.neowin.net/news/ba...-in-game-ads-clarification/
    • This is obviously aimed at the education where Apple has lost so much ground to Chromebooks in the last few years, but unless they come up with a comparable management system for education why would anyone switch back?
    • Here's how we arrived at that claim: Note that this is just Play Store downloads. The app is also available on the Galaxy App Store
    • Google Play states the app had more than 50 million downloads. What other metric do you suggest should be used?
    • MSN defined our generation in some ways, kind of like Snapchat and TikTok have done for future generations. I have great memories of the MSN era in the late 90s / early 2000s. In the UK everyone seemed to come home from School and go on MSN for the evening. We didn't really have mobile phones then, so other than going and knocking on your friends door it was a totally new way of interacting with people. I also loved how I could talk to people I’d met playing online games from around the world. Inviting people to NetMeeting and messing about with the shared white board and webcams was pretty fun, even if webcams only ran at a couple of fps over dial-up. All the random things you could do with MsgPlus! were really fun - I suspect that made a few people jump with /shello randomly blasting Mr Hankey out their speakers! Maybe I’m just nostalgic, however I do feel the internet and computers were more fun back then.
