there it is again, is the M60 missing a front sight?
not sure but wouldnt be suprised
they sawed off the barrel of captured RPD's
considering MACV were mobile special forces teams u dont really need to be super accurate
especially with an mg
just lay down fire
and u can point shoot
looks like they sawed off the end of the barrel
i wonder if anyone would get away with that nowadays
seems like everything becomes so regulated with time
i mean technically alot of militaries no longer have iron sights on their guns cuz they have optics
and again point shooting is a thing
but also again these guys were not average grunts
these guys were black ops
so they have more freedom to do stuff
right. cant fine you for destruction of military property that doesnt exist
yea or cant fine you if you completed this really dangerous mission
the casualty numbers for the SOG guys is unreal
i think it was something like 80% overall
that's pretty surprising. you'd think the opposite at first, but it makes sense. all alone god knows where, as far as fire support is concerned
i suppose they werent let in on how many people dont make it back
well actually the SOG guys had dedicated fire support, called Prarie Fire missions
pretty much a SOG team would call ''Praire Fire! Praire Fire'' and their location and all hell would be let loose (😬 )
A1 Skyraiders did alot of prairie fire missions
Interview with CW3 Joseph "Woody" Woodard Panther 2-7 talking about this mission. Recorded just before he suddenly passed away.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WcFWVOX9ofk
Woody was part of Panther 3-8's heavy team of three Cobra gunships'
Recon Team Hawaii and Recon Team Colorado were in a Prairie Fire emergency at the same time. The Author of...
well, i prefer artillery. if they're deep in enemy territory, then the time on target for CAS must be way too long, and they can get shot down
Thats why the A1's often supported the SOG teams cuz they could loiter for hours
thats y they also did CSAR
plus artillery can only reach so far
Ah. But it's a long way to reload. But I suppose the SOG wouldnt be facing mass assaults that need artillery support anyway
thats y in real life u have multiple planes ready to go, when 1 flight has to go home, the second flight is ready to take over
If that would be the US garrison sound it would be so funny.
and the A1 could carry more ordenance then the B17 so yea
~100% of the operational guys that actually went across the fence.
plus u dont need to drop everything at a time, often 1 or 2 HE rockets or a 250lb bomb is plenty to break up a fight
plus again theres gonna be atleast 2 to 4 aircraft on station
I would expect SOG skins equivalent to the 82nd pathfinder skin currently in HLL if I was a betting man. God only knows what reference they'll use for it tho lol
i read about 1 sog team that got attacked by a pretty big force and they called like 2 cobras, 4 a1's, an ov-10 and a pair of phantoms
as long as theres a black scarf, nomex gloves, a boonie hat and tigerstripe camo im happy
Game with the best customization when it comes to vietnam games is the MACV DLC for arma 3

Have they said anything about cross play? I have some friends that refuse to play on anything but Xbox
From what we know, it’ll be cross play for consoles, so PlayStation and Xbox can play together, but not for PC.
Crossplay is a No for now I believe
More sites Are Posting the pre orders , think Someone was a Bit to early with sharing them
for example?
amazon and couple of others
and its listed to be published by Fireshine games over and over?

jup but its just to many for it not being real...
Some pics of my old man. ADG and crewman in the bushranger gunships. Ended up with the SASR, hoping to see some great Aus factions on the game. I've personally been to Nui Dat and the Battle of Long tan memorial many years ago. Looking forward to this coming out!
Excuse me if I wrote in the wrong group, but HLL Vietnam was announced? Like, the exact day.
Still nothing nope, we are waiting still :}
Any release date will be announced in #sit-reps
Ok. Thanks
das a US base
What Polar Bear said 🫡
100%
Hey guys
Guessing by the increased hype on social media, sponsored posts and release of more screenshots a release date announcement is imminent? 😏
Next step is the dark room point a lamp at you.
You’re the first one I’m gonna find in the rice fields.
Not if I see you first 👀
He is definitely Batman
so coming late this Year is December right?
We are thinking it's summerish
New US aerial units feature fully operational helicopters for fire support and supply drops.
That line is interesting.
I'd assume that supply helis drop supplies and troop transport helis have sideguns
at least we saw the later in the trailer
all these pics I assume its coming soon
What ARE those 6 maps even gonna be anyways
Khe Sanh, La Drang, and Hue are the only ones I can think of
We don't know yet 🙂
Of course, thinking out loud
Lang Vei, maybe?
It is deeply depressing that we aren’t getting Quang Tri on launch, because no ARVN on launch
Although
They could be a customization option, where you can make ARVN guys as US skins or NLF as PAVN skins
Keep in mind that whilst they will take Inspiration from real battles, the maps wont be as close to history as in current HLL.
Just saying
Source?
I ask so someone can link me the q&a lol
I think they said it in their devstream, give me a second to dig up a link

Somewhere in there I think
Any good servers I can join ?
use the Enlist for server list, find a community with a good ping.
No idea what @jade kayak is on about, this game isn't even released yet. You can probably find some Discord servers though.
Sorry not sorry polar.
He sharedposted it in #console-general-chat so I know he was talking about normal game. 😒
Don't kill me
Thanks buddy appreciate it
Would be better in #vietnam-history if this is Veitnam related. (I don't know camo outfits so don't judge)
@jade kayak
It's Vietnam history. Get the role in id:customize
Ahh thanks
Oh sorry It's Ukrainen related russian colonel uniform
Okay, so more modern? Should be in off-topic then. This chat is for talk of HLL Vietnam game.
Oh ok thanks sorry
Just trying to point you in t he right direction 👍
What do you mean with war trophies?
Have you killed and looted a russian colonel?
He probably did
That's what are are.
I get them from a few people I know who are on the frontline in ukraine.
Amost everything i have is off from dead Russians
That's nice
I have a bunch of uniforms but none of them are actual war trophies
From other wars or in ukraine
Yes Abu we know
Not to be that guy, but #off-topic-mess-hall please and thank you 🙂
Not the channel
Predicted you
That's crazy
Yes
Where's off topic
there's literally a Instagram post saying "is coming later this year" so sadly is a official confirmation that is December, because November is GTA 6
Which arent official ans therefore about as correct as abu (usually).
hope you're right
Yeah no, what they’re saying here is that like, the maps are going to be adjusted for gameplay, not that they’re gonna be entirely made up
Thats close enough to what I said? 😅
Just distant enough for me to say this:
If they don’t add Fall Of Saigon and Quang Tri and therefore ARVN within a year of the release we shall riot
Can we get a release date please
Be patient
😂 the game is out for pre order on Amazon
Doubt
It is, search it up. But no release date
Couldnt find it on Amazon but it was on bestbuy
I found it on Amazon. Same price. It has a 'release' date, but I think anything that's out in "2026" defaults to the end of the year.
Yes it says release date: not announced. And ice also heard it defaults to end of the year
What month do you think they will release it. If it is in December thats crazy 😂 better to just say they will release it in 2027
I'm thinking late Summer?
Yea i hope so
That is not far away
I’m honestly thinking early June or early August they want to get the game out before gta 6
^
Well forget what I said ab the game being better bc i can't even play it. I queue into a game, doesn't matter what server, and when I get into the match the game immediately crashes
Console or PC. If console you should upon every single release - clear it's cache. If PC it too has a cache that should be deleted. You should also delete your %localappdata%\HLL\Saved folder. You'll have to reconfigure everything within game. PC crashes are usually PC related and not really game related.
Console.
I hope June instead of August.
May or June would be nice for all the college students
We havent seen anything about this game in months, there is no world where it releases this summer.
We just got teaser images
Hopefully the teaser images are an indication that we’ll be getting more information soon.

They need to give us something...
How soon™️ is soon™️? I hope soon™️ is soon™️. The soon™️er soon™️ comes, the better.

2 weeks
اكو عرب 👂
they should at least give us 10-20min of gameplay!!
They should at least release the whole game!!
They should release the game, cancel updates for the game 2 months after release, and then release Hell Let Loose Vietnam 2!!!
You did something yesterday that got me desiring to say based, but the message was deleted and I couldn't find your name in the @ so I'm saying it now
Based
Wait i did?
Based
hell let loose Vn coming in december this year..
so another year of playing black ops 1 and arma conflict instead
hope HLL VN does not use AI radio music as arma conflict is doing, is not real nam with AI radio music
This is Paint it black edition brother, i reserved the hardened edition coming with a RCXD
i dont need this game at all since i was there for real
anyone knows the release date of squad Vietnam?
Does 16 on hllv rating mean no gore like hll? Like bodies get blown up by arty
Hopefully it will have better gore
Yeah I think it’s criminal to take that aspect away when trying to accurately portray war, gruesome injuries are gonna happen
MOOOO
That’s confirmed?
Well frick
Guess I’ll just watch full metal jacket again (and again) untill we know…
?
Horse
later this year meaning it could be either be from June to december
I heard it's coming out on the 31 of December
Needs to come out before gta 6
No flop.... 
That's just Amazon's default setting when they have no release date outside of the year.
We have not confirmed our release date or preorders yet 
The listings you saw were just a few of the retailers getting their pages for the physical version of the game created I believe.
When is hell let loose vietnam releasing
you honestly cant be that dumb
I can keep it a secret🤫
2026
See? Literally told me!
Dude thanks so much!
Yes I'm the goat
I'm so smart too
Yes
I still feel like that flop would look lovely as a discord sticker
No idea what you mean?
@desert rivet great floppage was acheived! 
Aw well I was fooled, the anticipation is insane
I love seeing how hyped everyone is can't lie 😄
We aren't hyped about Juno because sadly we got no teasers about it

I know, I already mate a playlist for it. Me and the boy's in the jungle
I was more hyped about the stalingrad than juno beach just because we got teasers about stalingrad
Oh boys, I remember being hyped about Stalingrad when it was first released
people talking about HLL in the HLLV chat
other people talking about HLLV in the HLL chat
Dies inside
I was in the womb when it released
Me encanta goonear con este juego. Un gooner certificado de todo Brasil. Can you Explain pls

But hey, there's always my suggestion thread.. https://discord.com/channels/316459644476456962/1337887591978237952
@plain lake Can you give me a multiple choice?
I'm gonna play hell let loose 
In 2026
for the type of vehicle, or release date?
Probably vehicle, but im sure he would take any of those 2.
The first one, but what HerrWilles said
Release Date:
Option
- 2026
Option
- twenty twenty six
Option
- zwanzig sechsundzwanzig
Option
- MMXXVI
Vehicle wise, I'm not too sure sorry. Assuming a truck of some kind?
Guess I'll have to investigate! 🌭 or 🍚 you think?
I've had too much rice so I can take the hot dog
I was thinking it's a M35 series 2½-ton 6x6 cargo truck but I'm not too sure.
Looks like it could be the back of a Vietnamese BTR. But judging by the setting, that doesn't make too much sense.
How the hell let loose do you know
It's an in-game render of a supply or resource station.
An American one at that
Looks like ammo maybe
How do you know the exakta modellen
Of the truck?
Help of some websites and comparing them.
I haven't found an exact match
Do you have high iq
I got the IQ of an elephant
Thats top 20 smartest animals man, be proud
My internet quality is goldfish
These arent new tho
I saw it for. 5 seconds
The "logistics officer" for the helicopter makes me think there won't be a cobra
Scammmer posted in honeypot lol
Some more info: "New US aerial units feature fully operational helicopters for fire support and supply drops." "Enhanced player movement, including swimming, climbing and fast crawling, and interactions such as dragging co-combatants away from active fire to give them a chance to heal and re-engage, all adds to the immersive battle experience."
I've seen this before
Nah thats not new either
I haven't looked at it since December tbf
new to me
fire support and air drops but not transporting troops
that's gotta be wrong
Climbing will be interesting.. does that only mean ladders or will we be able to climb trees and rocks?
And could that be faction dependent
I don't know actually
I wonder which class in the infantry squad is going to have the radio strapped to their back.
2026 would be written as either "Zwanzig Sechsundzwanzig" or "Zweitausendsechsundzwanzig" in German
It seems like benb isn't even German
I know
But I love our long and confusing words
I get the joke tho
Didn't mean to say it like anti joke if you understand
Nah everything alright bro
Might literally be the SL. I can't imagine the Rifleman having it, for obvious reasons. No way it's the Grenadier, Medic, or Machine Gunner. It'd be weird but it could be the Engineer. Who knows what the Specialist actually entails, it could be explosives, it could be just different specializations.
That would make sense.
No support?
Maybe the specialist is the new support?
Cool new pfp
WHERE'S THE COBRA??!
not there 🥲
That doesnt mean im right, but its pretty close.
Though I already knew that part of the interview
I mean if there truly only are the support and transport helis and nothing else, that means no cobra since it didn't fit either role
Just like HLL's SPAs don't fit their role either 
I swear to god if we get a logistics Cobra I will cry
it should not be slinging supplies or carrying troops
im kinda hoping that helis have an off-map base or spawn/despawn/resupply point so they wont get camped
Me with a RPG champing the Heli spawn pad
That’s what air drops implies, transporting troops by air they just said it in a weird way
i dont need a cobra, just give a me a huey gunship or a loach
mini-gun and a rocket pod is all i need
A cobra is honestly more likely
A solo helo is a not really fitting into HLL imo
i mean technically a loach isnt solo cuz they would usually ahve a gunner or a co-pilot but ye maybe
i just think the cobra is like the most overrepresented attack helo in vietnam media
same with the phantom
every vietnam game and movie its always phantoms doing CAS
Fun fact: the helis have 3 roles and one of them is gunner.
yea obviously but they say theres only 2 different types of helos, transport and supply
were talking about attack/scout helos
Ik, though the roles are pilot, gunner and crewmate
Wtf does a crewmate in a heli?
lol they should change the name to crewchief
well usually crewchiefs are flexible in their roles, gunners, inflight engineer (kinda) and doing stuff like dropping repel ropes, cutting carrying lines or helping bring onboard wounded
I am so Hyped
If I can just sit there 90 minutes and keep the heli alive during flight with a blowtorch im getting an autoclicker.
Loach is highly unlikely
ik
for gun support
it makes me cri
although reconnaissance it definitely could make the cut
No? It's only a logistics officer and a pilot
They changed it
I looked at the steam Page 30 minutes ago
Anyone can take the gunner I bet
Now thats german... but trust me is does say that
Im in my steam app...
Same
Yeah based I guess, I changed my language and its literally this.
Confusing ahhh steam page... it says the same in the spanish steampage as in the german one.
Language localization probably isn't priority when updating these things
Bad names is one thing, but different roles?
Not even chatGBT wouldnt translate this bad and make 3 out of 2 roles.
I can't believe Ben would do this to us
i wonder if the two types of helicopter have different amount of crew and mistake made on the steam page
Those were the old roles when the Steam page first opened up. They updated them now, but only seems to be the English page for now.
Naaaah
I would expect the supply helicopters to carry less troops than the dedicated transport helicopters.
What would a logistics officer even do in a heli? Load supplies?
The german version makes more sense role wise
||Coordinate with the team. Typically the pilot didn't do communications, it was instead the officer.|| Wrong
||And I'm sure they'll be able to use the guns, copilot, and load supplies like you said. The pilot's only job is to fly, land, and listen to the officer.|| Wrong
Can you ss the entire role list in German and compare them with the US roles?
Because it was 19, but now they limited it to 17.
That as a HLL role? Idk
Technically the "Crew Chief" but I'm assuming they combined a bunch of roles into one.
• Master 17 combat roles across 6 units, including:
Command: Commander.
Infantry: Officer, Rifleman, Assault Trooper, Medic, Support, Machine Gunner, Anti-Tank, Engineer.
Reconnaissance: Scout, Sniper.
Armor Units: Tank Commander, Crew Member.
Helicopter (exclusive to the US faction): Pilot, Crew Member, Gunner.
Artillery Crew: Scout, Support, Gunner.
Thats translated via deeple
Removed Anti-Tank and Assault trooper.
Made specialist.
And the helicopter changes we knew already.
Grenadier is also new?
OK, I can believe they fuse AT and Assault
I can even believe they make a fancy role for helis
@high berry was anything I said egregiously wrong? I'm no expert, so please correct me.
But NO WAY that they remove support
Like thats basicly top 3 most important HLL classes
right after Tank commander and tank crew
-# (teleporters) :}
Tanks are probably not going to be nearly as effective.
Engineer could probably pick up that role
Yes, the Pilot is the Aircraft Commander. You will always hear the pilot communicating on recorded audio from combat missions. I'm not sure where "the officer" came from lol
Okay, I could definitely be mistaken, but I was told by a Vietnam War veteran about someone assuming the role of "eyes and ears" and I always assumed that was the crew chief.
Obviously communications between aircraft would be the pilot
But coordinating with the ground
Google here I come
Yeah the crew chief and gunner are the eyes and ears of the aircraft commander when maneuvering the airframe.
That does not mean the pilot (officer or warrant officer) doesn't talk on the radio, just flies and only listens to the enlisted crew chief
coordination with ground elements is going to be the role and responsibility of various FACs (Forward Air Controllers)
Okay, that makes sense. Now how do you think the two roles provided: Logistics Officer and Pilot would fit into this system?
My best guess for the logistics officer is an attempt at Squad's logistics system (which was a role I never played so idk how it works). No clue why that would be listed under aviation unless they're going to include heavy lift airframes in the game.
Yeah, that's definitely odd. Only time will truly tell.
So I guess a week from today we’ll be getting some more information on the game. I hope we get a release date.
I hope Ben comes out and tells us which Steampage is correct.
Wait what?
I may have missed somehting
ahah
All these news letters and stuff is getting me excited, I need to mag dumb a M60
Is this between different language versions?
That the translation for the german version
hmm I'll pass it on
I looked into the spanish version and it seemed to be the same as the german one.
Okay so it seems that the translated versions need an update. Getting the team to sort it for y'all asap
So the English version is correct?
Oh, you know Spanish?
Hola
That is racist
He didn't even say paella which is actually Spanish
For that exact reason is even more racist
incorrect sterotypes will not be tolerated 
Please dont ban me 😭
Me and the so-called "racist" did happen to find a discrepancy between the language versions. So I call that a win. Also a lot of the stores have differing versions of the game details, some listing incorrect details.
With Bens answer I do believe the current english version is the correct one.
Which makes me kinda sad but also curious what da faq a logistics officer does in a heli.
Also without a dedicated gunner role the chance of a cobra on release is very low.
They could easily make it a crew chief and it can fill any role
...I read that as crew chef
my favourite new class for HLLV: Kitchen Leader or Kitchen Crewman
Is it gameplay reveal or just same trailer
Tired of regular hell let loose
Again
🤞 please be another outsource created trailer
🤞 please be another outsource created trailer
We’ve taken a nva op
<@&365680483276816385> this guy spams messages
🫵🥱
Guys, do u guys think the vietnam maps will be bigger than the current hll maps or not?
Probably not?.
So a German op?
Why not
I don’t know, I could be wrong, but I feel like they’d almost have to be bigger to accommodate for things like helicopters.
Are there gonna be tanks in this game
I'd imagine yes
There are tank roles... those would be silly without tanks
when game release
No release date yet. But supposedly sometime this year.

Most likely, though I dont know how intense their use in Vietnam was
Autumn/winter 2026
There will indeed
Is conquest pte out yet
Not yet boss. Should be this afternoon 🫡
Read the changes here though #telegrams
cant wait to see the gameplay!, im assuming its gameplay
Now then
It's actually been live since this morning 😄
cant wait!!
I wonder if there’s gonna be a little bit of weapon customization in the game. Obviously nothing like scopes or anything, just minor cosmetic things. Y’know, like a folding stock for the AK or replacing the birdcage flash-hider on your M16 with a three-prong. You know, little stuff like that.
Maybe
I would like character customization to be a little more in-depth. Like, you can pick and choose certain parts of your uniform.
We yearn for microtransactions!
He is secret dev, he needs more money
Ofc its microtransacrions
I didn’t really have micro transactions in mind when I brought it up.
Sure
At least you're support
If we get those it'll be mixed. Microtransactions and achievements/milestones.
Or could be tank camo all over again.
Tank camo has to be the dumbest shut of all time
There were vjdeos of tanks changing camo in test area
We're definitely getting a "Huey" UH-1D Iroquois as the transport helicopter, but what could the supply helicopter be?
probably either a Huey aswell or a Chinook or the H-34
would be very cool to see the H-34
ugly as all hell but was a common helo during the war
Don't call her ugly! She's a beautiful Seahorse.
nah shes ugly
If she's in the game I will be maining her.
i just really hope the Helicopters feel good
i hope we can use HOTAS and that they feel weighty yet fast
Same. The trailers made them feel slow, but that hopefully translates into advanced manueverability.
they have to be faster then in the trailer
Yeah, they were literal slugs and easy pickings for "Specialists".
yea if they are that slow u can literally just snipe the pilots with ur sidearm
Yeah, hoping this part of the trailer ain't showing top speed.
Also, this shot is sick, but the helicopter should be able to move faster than a tank.
wonder what kind of AAA the NVA will get
im assuming just a AA mounted Dshk or a truck mounted ZU-23
but maybe we will see the Shilka
but that would be late war
There's something that looks like a AA mounted Dshk in one of the trailers
time stamp?
Team 17/Expression have released a brand new in-engine/gameplay trailer for Hell Let Loose Vietnam! Let's dissect all the details!
Wishlist Hell Let Loose Vietnam on Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3079210/Hell_Let_Loose_Vietnam/
⭐Please like and subscribe if you enjoy my content! It really helps me grow as a creator! And hit the n...
oh yea true could be a ZP-4
would be awesome if the precision strike call in in the game was a precision guided weapon of some kind
like a walleye or paveway 1
they werent used for close air support but i mean neither was the Stuka
How would that work? Would the commander be able to control its path of trajectory?
nah just call it in and it falls right on target
regular bombs would have some random factor to them
Gotcha. It would be both precise and accurate to the target.
Is there a NVA counterpart to that?
the paveway 1 was a 2000lb laser guided bomb and the walleye was a 1000lb tv guided bomb
no
but devs have already said factions are disimilair
NVA would technically be able to have bombing and strafing run call ins tho
i mean i hope theres multiple types of call ins for each side yea
strafe, bombing, napalm and precision strike
What would be some benefits, other than tunnels, that you can see with the Vietnamese?
maybe the ability for NVA to have an SA-2 call in to shoot down US aircraft
since the NVA had an extensive IADS during the war
True that
Who's gonna stop that anti-air from being used on infantry?
So I suppose that's another benefit.
yea
Mostly the MG and autocannon types.
yea i doubt we will be able to use 57 and 100mm flak guns lmao
You guys think Aiming in Vietnam will be better than the aiming in hll rn
wdym?
Like I feel like sometimes my enemies get lost behind my gun when ever I aim down a sight which I feel like is just kinda weird
i mean yea lol
Watch the gameplay trailer and see what the sights look like.
doesnt help that ur on console btw lol
not nearly as precise
Wishlist the game today - https://store.steampowered.com/app/3079210/Hell_Let_Loose_Vietnam/
The jungle awaits you, when Hell Let Loose: Vietnam launches next year in 2026 🌴
This trailer features the first in-game footage shown of our newest game in the Hell Let Loose franchise.
To find out more head to our website www.hellletloose.com
He...
Ik but still it feels weird
imo HLL gunplay is like the best part of the game
It probably won’t be as bad since it’s a lot closer quarters
For me it's honestly the atmosphere
Gameplay-wise.. that's difficult, I like the communications you get in a Squad or tank.
But that's teatering on an edge.
The gunplay is very responsive, so yeah.
Play with ur settings dawg as someone else on console it’s not that bad once u figure it out n know what to look for
I’m not sure what to look for
Best advice I can give you find a comp team play with em and they’ll teach you up pretty quick
@stoic acorn It's set to release this year. We don't have quite a date yet, but who knows, that may be announced at the showcase on Thursday with Galaxies Showcase.
Thanks
Except it says Parody?
Feel free to post them in off-line, because it's not HLL: Vietnam related.
doesn't matter game will not have probably any radio music
do we know what the Custom server situation is going to be for HLLV? And if you would be able to customize used factions?
Nothing yet.
I'd assume they'd have the same options in the community servers that the current servers have.
or maybe expanded more? Not sure.
it wont Devs said in a recent interview it wont
I need that high qual image
love me a good 'ol M35 series 2 and 1/2 ton 6 x 6 cargo truck
Oh no! It's covered with a tarp in the photo! It's unusable!
whats the word on PC console crossplay? I heard they backpedaled slightly after launch
They didnt backpedal, its still the same as they said months ago.
So Console with consoles and PC with itself.
any idea if plans for that to change are afoot or is it more or less cemented that it wont come in the future
like post launch PC Console crossplay?
cant wait
@plain lake you’re such a tease
I assume they announce the release date
They probably wont bother with Console PC crossplay
Yeah Arma made that mistake, you can’t do nearly as much as Arma 3
to be fair, arma 3 has been out for a lot longer and was on a more well known engine
reforger has come a long way and a lot of people have moved to it
HLL is on Unreal Engine
i meant well known to the devs/modders for that franchise
Might be the most well known engine out there 😅
That, and, as a console player, playing against PC is an absolute pain in Arma Refoger.
Hehe
i mean I think having a PC crossplay toggle is fair
Sorry, pew pew
That's me 🫡
In the Vietnam servers, some of them will intentionally vote to night so we can’t see anything while they boost their gamma and essentially give themselves night-vision.
wait is it gonna be crossplay?
@plain lake I am assuming you guys don't have a firm yes or no on if in the future Console/PC Crossplay could be an option after release? Several communities I know of would love to have everyone on the same servers, and maybe just a toggle for turning on/off PC Console crossplay could be a reasonable answer? Don't know what your internal project pipeline is for features and/or where the priorities are for HLL Vietnam but was just curious.
If you can't comment on it at this time thats fine and I get it, was just wondering if you guys knew/could comment or not
i would hope so. me and my homies were wanting to play together
All I know is that it's a no at launch. That's all I know of cross play plans I'm afraid
ok thanks for the response!
They mentioned that climbing is a thing in HLLV. I'm assuming that it only means ladders, and not NVA climbing into trees...
No worries at all 🫡 Sorry I can't give more info however should cross play plans change I'll be sure to let everyone know. For now though, assume it's not happening
Brothers stop posting pics and release the game already
T17 is edging the community
I don't think I've seen a single bridge in one of these photos. Are we sure it's the same development studio as HLL?
go watch the trailer

🇦🇺
A small section of that one yeah
cool pictures but what about some gameplay footage?
3 days
i really do hope we will see more factions in the game post launch
VC, ARVN and Anzacs atleast
ARVN and VC would be really easy to add
ARVN is literally just the US faction in HLL WW2
but slightly different uniforms
And slightly different kits.
VC would just be a conglomeration of every weapon known to man at that point
@plain lake any idea about custom/community servers at or post launch?
we are def getting a release date on the 16th no question
It'll be the same as hell let loose where you can rent your own servers from the get go 🫡
The photos from "hllv-media" are in-game gameplay footage, or just filters and stuff?
Just asking
In-engine renders
Which is basically a better version look of in-game screenshots
No need for LODs or lowered resolution because they can wait
wonder how much the actual game will have fog everywhere to hide the lods
jungles are misty
it's environmental

rolling fog / rain changing the maps is good to vary the map play style, but the ever present "haze" is not good
@plain lake for HLL Vietnam, the microsoft store says it will have Xbox play anywhere and cloud saves. Does this mean you could play with console friends since effectively you're livestreaming a Xbox version of the game as opposed to running it natively on PC?
With that said if there is planned flight stick/HOTAS support for the helicopters (Haven't seen this confirmed or officially discussed, so different topic I guess), would that be restricted to just the PC Version?
Not entirely sure if this is more a microsoft question or if you guys happen to know the answer to it
Will HLLV be cross-play between PC and Consoles?
no
Ok
So ts is fake, right?
not at launch is the official word
Ok
from the Community Manager further up this channel
@limpid spindle
Thx
Im repeating myself but watch the dev Interview from a few months ago.
There are timestamps
some little character templates i like to do once in a while, this time US Army and ARVN troops
These are looking great!
ty Ben ❤️
Lowkey should be an easter egg on a map or vehicle
lol i can make some way better stuff if i got the honor to have something of mine put in the game
could make a pin up or something for a vehicle
Updated the ARVN's a bit :)
you guys think well get a release date on the 16th? or perhaps a beta date?
I hope a release date 🙏
Assuming there will be a console beta lol
any guesses when vietnam comes out?
hopefully this upcoming summer
people would be playing gta 6
its almost like a tsunami for all other game releases
Better be a Cobra mention
i have to wait another whole farken day AND have to watch it early early
27 hours
@plain lake i am trying to confirm this, will the M50 Ontos be in HLL Vietnam?
Don't think so
My money is on September for full release
early September
fits into a quarterly product cycle
but is as far ahead of GTA6 as possible
You made me lose hope, at least you make good videos tho 😄
This would be nice add !
Hopefully we get this without DLC
@ smoggless I agree
good call i think
can anyone tell if this is an M700/m24 or a model 70?
Also, do we know if Platoons / Clans & Clan tags will be in the game at launch or are planned?
nope
we dont know
It looks to me like an M40, which was basically a Remington Model 700.
oh yea thats what i meant, not m24
that would be interesting since m40 was a marine weapon
m70
Well, you also see people in the trailer wearing M55 flak jackets, which were exclusive to the Marine Corps, and some of the maps mentioned are supposed to be Operation Piranha and Operation Starlite, both of which were primarily Marine Corps operations.
man i really hope they walk back the statement that its gonna be only 1965 stuff
its a cool idea adding stuff to the game in chronological order according to history
but its just gonna end up giving us like 20 maps that look the exact same and dont add anything to the game
id rather they just do the most iconic battles throughout the war
Only time will tell. I feel like they’ll definitely want to bring in stuff from the Tet Offensive as soon as they can.
Ia Drang, Hue, Khe Sanh, An Loc, Long Tan etc
rather have like 1 iconic battle from each year of the war then like 5 maps from just 1965 and then 66 and then 67 etc
well Long Tan was an anzac battle but whatever
yea 1968 timeframe is when they should have the main chunk of the game set
its like if HLL ww2 came out with Mortain, Tobruk and Smolensk
ppl would be like ''wtf where are the iconic battles?''
that was part of Battlefield V's downfall, they for some reason wanted to do obscure battles from 1939 and 1940 that no one except for hardcore history buffs know about, instead of D-day, Stalingrad, Berlin etc
To be fair, it would be nice to see some of the lesser known battles, but they definitely should have the big iconic ones, too.
yea 100%
focus the big popular stuff first then do the lesser known stuff
releasing a big ww2 game and only doing the battle for norway is a very easy way to shoot yourself in the foot
cuz ngl if i have to wait for like 2 years to get Hue City, Hamburger hill, An Loc etc, im gonna be a bit pissed
Maps take time. 
exactly
thats y they should have the most iconic important ones first
imagine releasing a game about the normandy invasions but you release the battle of mortain first and omaha beach after 3 years
well im just going off what their initial plan was a few months ago
which i was oppsed to then and now
im not saying this to be a nay sayer im saying it out of genuine worry
i mean they had the same plan for HLL WW2 initially when they took over like 3 years ago but they ditched that plan very fast
doing the year by year thing
and it was the right decision to ditch it
I have no clue what would be the most iconic battles. (I don't remember any mentioned in history classes MANY years ago... nor did I ever look into it, so this is a complete unknown beyond general information about the war known)
Unknown to you
I did mention like 6 iconic battles earlier
Granted 2 of them didnt involve the americans directly but still
What I remember from highschool (US) was a quick skim through Vietnam War... but I don't remember any details.
Yea cuz in the US u dont learn much about Vietnam cuz its a giant stain on your countries history
Only younger generations are learning about Vietnam because they seek out the info
Or they arent from the US
But also vietnam isnt thaught as much generally cuz the War really was pointless, there was no greater cause or learning from it
Other then how depraved humanity is
Well, let's not get too deep if you want to talk history of it.
I think the US has a duty to teach its kids about vietnam honestly
And by that i mean in an honest way
You're free to have that opinion, but I don't feel you can cover every single aspect of US history or World History in US school curriculum. Plus, each state has different requirements.
PLEASE lets not go into that.
First page should be about My Lai
Never said that
Dont think Germany teaches about every WW2 battle ever but they still felt it was their duty to hold themselves to the horrible things they did
Id be shocked if even 1% of the US population today that is under 70 knows anything about My Lai
Thats how much the US has buried its demons
Please, I said not to go into that.
Y not?
There was a lot of horrible stuff in the USA history, it's not like they don't address it.
But this will get into a whole argument because you're stating we should k now eVERY little bad thing we have done.
It's a lot of history and only so much can be taught. Each state has their own set requirements of what to be taught.
no i didnt lmao, ur literally creating the argument rn, a strawman at that
U urself said that when u where in school they just skimmed by Vietnam
I think that does a diservice to people
I also had my last history class oh... 16 years ago? I don't remember what we did or did not cover and what to degree.
Also saying that My Lai is some ”every little thing” is a crazy thing to say
Literally internationally recognized as one of the worst most horrible events in modern war history
I DIDN'T say it was. DON'T twist my words.
Ur twisting mine mate so a bit the kettle calling the pot black
How am i supposed to interpret you saying ”every little bad thibg” after i specifically name My Lai
I agree that Americans should be taught more about the war, but it also shouldn’t be just “America bad, all they did over there was war crimes” because that, in and of itself, is also a very dishonest portrayal of the conflict.
I said EVERY, as in every single bad thing our government (or individuals) did or were forced to do, we have to learn in school? No.
Oh 100% agreed
Neither did i say that so seems needless that you said it to begin with
Like I said, my last history class was 16 years ago. I don't remember everything we were or were not taught.
I dont think germans need to learn about every consentration camp but they probably should learn about Auschwitz
Thats the whole crux of my argument
Cuz again i can with realtive safety probably bet my life savings that if i walk up to an american mellenial or gen Z and ask them “What is My Lai” they would probably have no idea
Another example is In Japan they teach a super dishonest version of WW2
Their history class is pretty much “we were minding our own business and then 1 day the US nuked us for no reason”
Their government still denies the attrocities they did in Korea and China
The US gov tried to cover up My Lai for about 10 years
The funny thing about that is, that very same year, the North Vietnamese Army and Viet Cong executed between 2,800 and 6,000 civilians in Hue City, and nobody ever seems to talk about it.
Allright, we're gonna go into history talk?
Take it #vietnam-history cool, thanx
This is supposed to be for game talk.
Yep thats a big issue too, most ppl assume the north vietnamese regime was some kinda innocent force that just wanted to be free
Yea we can move it
im sure they executed over 20k at the start of the war
all the landowners
release date should be included tomorrow is my guess
wonder if building tunnels will be specific class
It will be interesting to see how they'll allocate that.
Might be engineers or a dedicated new class.
exciting times ill be playing a lot of this looking forward to the boats
They'll be fun, so will the helos.
Personally, give me mortars baby
fair enough mortars are in all these games but boats will be a new thing
I hope it releases in time for Summer Break. I’d like to get some time to play this game before classes start again.
Same
I'd assume so
Will be way better then regular hll
Crazy body dragging will be a thing
With those dense jungles, imagine how much more powerful machineguns and suppression could be. If an officer has intel on an enemy's position, he can place a mark and have the team unload while staying completely concealed...
The preorders for physical editions that went live in the past week do include similar pricing to HLL at launch (€39⁹⁹).
Looking forward to that game
Excited for stream today
6-7 hours away from the Live
On Pre-order info : Amazon.de info says : preorder price stay for preorder now ! After launch news the price can change and then u have a new price , only if u preorder now is 39€ after new news no one knows !
But we can know in 6 hours !
Honestly until it's on Steam, I'm not trusting any pre-order shenanigans
noooo trust me Crit
you can always trust me

the joke was, that I had renamed myself 
@sacred swallow in Germany, can you also reserve a copy and only pay when stopping by the store on launch day?
wooo showcase today!
I’m hoping for release date today and start of Pre Order best case scenario
Reserve , I think not , only drop in the basket. I have no reserve action button
U mean Shop store ? I think we have no store here, online only !
should be
Another little template of PAVN and Viet Cong :)
I see this ? Right
Vietnam, Pacific, Korea ???
Yes
They also mentioned Afghan War (2001-2022), Soviet Afghan War
and quite a few more
Yes , answer that for the future 🙂
I ask them , 2030 HLL Pacific ??
Chechen war or the early Ukraine conflict would be cool, like 2014 - 2016 era
current war in ukraine is too soon
lets get a release date
28 mins
Korea would be so cool. Such an underexposed war in media
I think is no game with this Episode ! From what I know.
yeah that's kedo
18 mins
All this for one game 🤪🤪😂
there is other games
2 mins oh yeahhhh
1 minnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn
can't afford a new soundtrack
thats it??????
weeks
how do we enlist
WEAK
Looked smooth too, but we beed console gameplay as well. Is it going to be sluggish like og HLL on console?
no release date
Honestly what I was expecting
I mean they could be running it on NASA computers for all we know, so I don't know about smooth yet
I know… we need to gameplay man not 2 second snippets. Show us the game running for 5 minutes straight
Same gunplay as WW2😑
Same in what way?
How do you know?
No firemodes or what?
We have no idea about firemodes
on the wait list
Greg Said it in a interview
Just now?
They should do play tests for console too
Naah check Razbora latest Vid on YouTube
Oh yeah. Saw that
Only Xbox allows it. Dont think Sony will
what is this
Hoped They made it a Bit more indepht
Hopefully they will
Is Beta Pc only?
Wish they would. Would be beneficial for all the bugs console get 😂
Looks to be Steam
hope to get in
But the discord sign up is confusing
Big @plain lake what platforms are available for playtesting?
you sign in and accept
Firstlook has to be new, I have only seen it for 2 games yet.
looks really really nice!
and they are both published by T17
Not going to lie if that’s ALL they had planned for today what a disappointment
hell let loose is mostly a pc game anyway
I think it looks nice, but the hand positions all look pretty weird, the recoil is a bit weird too
I think its gonna be fixed in beta tho
I only caught the tail end of the trailer tbf
i cant connect my discord
They may be fumbling this game with how they are handling things
hll console came way after
Summer
how do u know
Did you not watch the Show? 🤣
They said it 5 sec after the trailer
I actually signed in with my work discord.. can't change it..
You will not be seeing me in there
Hey sorry, just been getting all the socials sorted 🙂
hope to test heheh
However to my knowledge the first test will be PC only
already signed up
Will it be through an external service, or Steam?
I believe Steam 🙂
how many people will be able to test and for how long
First test?! As in they will have a few Betas Jesus this game is coming out in 2027 for sure
Thank you, Ben!
I'd re-watch the Galaxies intro 👀
I forgot there was this chat. Was wondering why nobody was talking in mess hall!
Upgrade the view models and recoil is too much like enlisted
What are we signing our discord or steam account into to enlist into the beta, here
when trying to connect my discord to sign up it just tells me i have to verify my account, what does that mean?
A T17s site I guess?
says nothing in the intro
unlucky thanks for the spot!
Means that you have to go and verify your Discord account. You'll have to do some sort of 2FA I assume
https://discord.com/verify try this
It’s the same recoil as WW2
Felt a bit higher and the shotguns recoil was the problem
yea it says im already registered wtf
all signed up
if theyre ready to start beta testing you can pretty much bet money on a late summer release.
Greg Said it somewhere in a interview that it will be the same as Like 1 Shot rifles, Smgs Like 4/5 etc
the presenter said something I believe after the trailker
where
Join your host Jane Douglas for the Galaxies Spring showcase.
This edition of Galaxies is bursting with surprises including a huge assortment of world premieres, major announcements and new gameplay trailers for fifty games. You won't want to miss it.
You can find all of the games and easily wishlist them at the Galaxies Steam event page - ht...
Oh I didn't mean damage, its the view model, its just slightly too high as you see too much of the arm
Stoked for the game and hope it plays good but ngl those weapons and hand positions/recoil animations look like buns.
Hoping just temporary and will respond to our feedback
Ah got ya
That's prolly why they're testing
Tank sounds were the Same I heard
She did not “play test will go live in a few weeks” doesn’t say anything about release
I think you're correct, I heard the same too
i know that not a single shot in that trailer hit another player, but weird to not include the distinctive headshot ding anywhere
She said summer
Thats the point :}
No she didn’t I just rewatched it
I just heard it 🤣🤣🤣
this summer woooo
she did
she said play test in a couple weeks and game comes this summer
It was in the last trailer that came out in december
From a sniper shot
Yeah she definitly said this summer and playtest in the next few weeks.
10 weeks?
this summer lets goo
Nice
Hoo ra
Literally read what I just wrote
so tomorrow? 
Ok my bad lmfao 🤣 you are right
@maiden lichen nice
just teasing poor @maiden lichen at this point 
Shadowdrop of a luchs buff rn!

It’s litterly 1 min after the trailer ends. She said coming this summer. Time to check youre ears
Wish they would release pre orders
Yeah you were right my bad
@maiden lichen is that your favourite tank
Also @maiden lichen do you play as tanker
@plain lake anything on the ps5 pro Version using Pssr2?
ngl it's a little weird to see a vietnamese gunboat, but interesting
so the testing is done by some 3rd party firm, First Look, like how vivox handles the voip
cant enlist
Hunger did the same thing tbf
Firstlook is just a signup service
says i need to verify my account to perform the action
The site slowed down
Put the code in your email in
Can’t believe they didn’t release Pre Orders
I hope they don't
