aaand you are OUT

-# (I dont know how baseball works)

[fathom shoal]

i mean you got it right

but that's your ball..

that means YOU'RE out!

[glossy lynx]

almost 9 k people online in the beta test discord omg

[fathom shoal]

and they're only taking nine players for the first test

that's a 0.1% chance of getting in but that doesn't account for offline people.

[trim nimbus]

Wow, it sounds like they’re gonna start the testing pretty soon.

[lavish locust]

Incredible bit to announce a beta test but not announce when that test will be

[jade kayak]

It gives people time to sign up

as well as them time to get it to a point of for sure beta release

It should be acouple weeks.

[jaunty belfry]

one day closer

[blazing furnace]

9 people for a test? 🤔

[glossy lynx]

no

there will be quiet a few

[jade kayak]

Vietnam beta sign up

#sit-reps message

[modern acorn]

i signed up though so i wonder why im not in??

[jade kayak]

You would have had a discord invite at the end.

[modern acorn]

really? i did not get that

[glossy lynx]

yeah insane

[jade kayak]

Sign into the registration and see if it gives you one

[modern acorn]

[glossy lynx]

yeah nothing in it for now

[modern acorn]

ok cool

[jade kayak]

Eventually updates will go there with Ben's announcements.

Abu yet again proving what we all knew

Back to firing flares old man @near otter

Nope, not entirely

Block blocks all sorts of interaction while ignoring just hides messages

But the respective person can still react to your messages

[fathom shoal]

I don't think I've ever used either option in my like 9 years on Discord

[balmy osprey]

yooo

beta is out but I didn't receive the mail

how to sign up

[jade kayak]

You need Steam & Discord for the first beta test.

#sit-reps message

instructions

[balmy osprey]

I added them in registration

I am registered but didn't receive nothing

with this discord and steam, Xbox no because they said beta is not on xbox

[jade kayak]

Yes, not yet.

This first round is PC only

[balmy osprey]

I prefer Xbox because my pc I don't think it can runs HLL VN I run HLL 1 at medium-low settings

[jade kayak]

no one has gotten emails yet for the beta.

[balmy osprey]

maybe they're first sending the invitation to big content Creators?

ahh ok

[jade kayak]

Patience, it was JUST announced on Thursday 🫠

we're thinking in a couple weeks for the first.

[balmy osprey]

any other beta is as interesting as this one, maybe bad company 2 beta in February 2010 what memories

Although this is causing me pain, this is funny ngl ahah

[modern acorn]

I'm pressing Accept invite but nothing is happening

[neon sparrow]

You’re gonna have that when there’s 10 gazillion people trying to access it at once

[candid python]

Yes. But good luck accepting it

[woeful dirge]

Yes

[maiden lichen]

I wouldnt recommend doing it rn

[regal jay]

firstlook is having issues right now

[neon sparrow]

I see, thanks for confirmation

[light wagon]

Yep it's real, but I suggest walking to the firstlook offices and accepting the invite in person. Probably faster that way 🙂

[neon sparrow]

Gonna gloat to my friends first

[echo patrol]

[stray kiln]

mb ask first look to connect a second potato in the server room

[light wagon]

I don't think they have the funds to double their server output. Let's organise a goFundme for the potato.

Atleast they got a proper stresstest

[regal jay]

i mean i just looked through firstlook's games they have, and this is arguably the biggest one theyre supporting

[light wagon]

But wait! There's more! If you pay just 100 € extra, we can show the "players/customers" 3 different kinds of errors on the page!! Subscribe now!

I got 2 of em
error 500, and You must be logged in to access this page🤣

Wonder what the 3rd is

How is firstlook not prepared for the traffic? Joke

[regal jay]

look at their list of supported games, this si arguably the biggest one they have. cut them some slack

No

[regal jay]

ok

Still a joke

[kindred umbra]

Not really

[storm lichen]

Still stupid to even use such a platform. Steam can easily do all of this already

[storm lichen]

Hack into firstlook and solve whatever problems they are having

[near otter]

Steam can send an invite to Steam players and that's about it. Steam definitely cannot easily do all of this.

[lost onyx]

Ive tried everything, just gotta be patient and wait a hour or so for the servers to resolve

[fervent grotto]

Delete you're browser

[storm lichen]

I'm not a browser, sir

[ruby patrol]

I mean all of what?
Have a sign up process for a beta?
Then selectively, randomly or whatever, give access?

[quartz copper]

time.
server overloaded. cant prosess all users request hens 500 error

[ruby patrol]

The only thing Steam won't do, is fill your Discord server with 9999 normies, that don't even know how to use the damn program

[fervent grotto]

Do you think they'll switch from Firstlook to something else ?

[muted hound]

someone need to tweak their kubernetes

[near otter]

Future betas will be for other platforms as well. Steam also doesn't let you link to Discord accounts, manage NDAs, send out forms, etc...

[jagged rampart]

Its not their kubernetes xd

[quartz copper]

rember 4xx errors are often cleint while 5xx errors are rever when come sites

[vagrant rock]

Dude I swear, these aren't even normies anymore, they're apes, at least their behaviour suggests it

[fervent grotto]

Are attack helicopters confirmed ?

[regal jay]

its all about player statistics and how that's aggregated, i think firstlook is superior to steam in that matter

[vagrant rock]

Transport and logistic ones are

Yeah but the beta trailer shows a guy shooting out of a helicopter so ?

They are. This is exactly how the Wardogs discord is acting.

Won't be long till I myself ask for a chat cooldown

[vagrant rock]

It's already there, 45 seconds

[ruby patrol]

Should just mute the normies for a day, let us keep up the usual banter

[vagrant rock]

So far only those two are confirmed afaik

[fervent grotto]

Ah

imagine the aussies servers

[light wagon]

Hey guys is the beta signup not working?

[buoyant widget]

Hey hey

the oceania boys

our ancestry is going to kick in

[random island]

They will all be just chill and friendly 😂

[wise aspen]

run it wild

[buoyant widget]

our grandfathers

veins run through us

anzacs were hectic in vietnam

JUNGLE

[wise aspen]

im a bit of a degenerate

[ruby patrol]

For about 2 seconds. Then it would ruin gameplay or create some kind of exploits with it and end up being this gimmicky thing that attracts new players, but no one actually uses.
We have plenty of those in base hll already

[light wagon]

just a bit? amateur...

[fallen scroll]

[wise aspen]

extremely

[buoyant widget]

peak book

[marsh pond]

so if you got the first email can you still get into the beta test?

[buoyant widget]

prob wait till its optimized

[buoyant widget]

it crashed

[fresh flame]

can we sue firstlook or T17? it said they won't give me an existential crisis but this sign up process surely did /s

[marsh pond]

so you are saying just wait?

[buoyant widget]

yup

[jagged rampart]

That's kinda short thinking. It could create an exploit, but I assume devs are smart enough to avoid this. have some faith in the devs..

[buoyant widget]

cuz heaps of traffic

[marsh pond]

alr

thx

[buoyant widget]

for now

arma 3 sog will do

if you dont have a pc

arma refroger vietnam will suffice

lol

[wise aspen]

sleep will do

[light wagon]

I am sorry, did you just write the words "devs" and "smart" in the same sentence?

[marsh pond]

was pumped to get into the test, just hoping not to be bumped out

[ruby patrol]

Yeah, we had that assumption like 30 times minimum with the initial installment.

Outside of hype that the normies are bringing, actual players are very skeptical of Vietnam. That being said, most of us are interested in at least trying it and attempting to give some feedback as to make this game better than the last.

[jagged rampart]

Oh yeah i did🤣

[worthy tulip]

they allow Australians into a play test for ones

[wise aspen]

rude

we break stuff

[elder anchor]

I'm getting a brain tumor from this sign up problem

[quartz copper]

basicly what happeds it to manny try as once. as more get tru or give out try later it will easy up backend.
best thing do. is try every now and then.

like try have paint and do 15-30min bween trys.
if all keep spaming it dosnt help the backend

[fresh flame]

i'll try to see it positive. if the beta sign up manages to attract so many players to crash the servers that might mean there will be enough players for the game to keep it alive

[worthy tulip]

do we

[wise aspen]

I do atleast

[ashen grotto]

wait for a few hours mate

[wise aspen]

I playtest it and break stuff

[light wagon]

I only tried 63 times... I am sure 64th is the charm.

[crude sable]

I'll try again in a few hours

[jagged rampart]

Euhm I consider myself an actual player, and I'm far from sceptical about Vietnam. Maybe thats just because I like history

[quartz copper]

think service bathwith and server capbilty as door.
if we all try at once we wont fit. but as line we do.
are no one make sure we do line and best thing be respectfull

[wise aspen]

aight, who is going first then

[lost onyx]

everyone

[ruby patrol]

I hope by actual you don't mean your level 68

[worthy tulip]

so was us Australians that broke the website

[jagged rampart]

Oh so in your eyess only highlevel players count as actual players? Thats real sshort of you lol

[old gale]

pretty much

[wise aspen]

naturally

[light wagon]

Are you actually trying to "level-gate" excitement for the next game? Duuuude.... not cool....

[ruby patrol]

I think actual players count as players who have something like 300+ or 400+ hours in the game. Know it fairly well.
Possibly have created a decent #1098158460463480842 or two, not just some dogwater tier posts about 'we need pacific'. Maybe played in a clan for a bit, possibly even a comp skrim or two. Something like that is what I would call an actual player.

These guys that just jump from game to game, from trailer to trailer hyping everything up aren't actual players.

[jagged rampart]

It's just a troll xd

[light wagon]

Look at that... we have an actual clown in the chat... nice 😄

[ruby patrol]

We've had this topic many times before.
It's like people saying their "gamers" when the only two games they play are League and Valorant. That's not a "gamer" thats a normie

how'd you guess my job

[jagged rampart]

I thought this was the HLL discord, not an circus act

[lusty flame]

Holy larper

[nimble topaz]

bro is gatekeeping gaming 😭

[light wagon]

I'd much rather play with 5 ppl under lvl 10 in a squad than with someone who considers everyone under 300 "not an actual player"

[ruby patrol]

Good for you. Just don't go ranting in #1098158460463480842 that we need T17 to mic-check people, because every single match you join ends up being a complete trash fest and not even close to how it's meant to be played

[zenith valley]

So does this mean the first mail from earlier is not valid anymore and one has to wait for a second one? Didn't get a second one, yet 😢

[nimble topaz]

🗣️ you aint a real gamer if you dont play the games i play!!!

[ruby patrol]

You do realize it's a bot, right?

[lusty flame]

🤓

[fervent grotto]

I didn't get any second email

[light wagon]

But don't forget, you are not a gamer if you didn't play it at least for a 1000 hours!

[jagged rampart]

Bruh, many high level players don't even know how to play the game so what is your point?

[zenith valley]

Can still ask questions here, can't I?

[lusty flame]

Dude the games you have listed on your discord are the most MAINSTREAM games

[wise aspen]

i dont think anyone has tbh

[lusty flame]

You arent a "real" gamer

[nimble topaz]

i support gatekeeping the gatekeepers

[rotund fossil]

https://tenor.com/view/i-want-rebar-let-me-in-please-gif-13609149

[ruby patrol]

My original point was that a good portion of regulars that play HLL still look at Vietnam quite skeptically, especially seeing as how the main game has been treated.
I don't understand how is this some crazy take if it's just reality. I mean, a good portion of us have been playing this game on and off for years now. No clue what y'all going crazy about.

[cedar mulch]

Who’s keen for the jungle

[lusty flame]

You're saying people who dont have 300-400 hours on a game (which takes years for people with a life) aren't "real" players

That is delusion

[trail river]

Welcome to the jungle, we got fun and games

[ruby patrol]

Most normies in Arc raiders already have 300-400 hours and it came out at the end of October?

[fervent grotto]

Just have fun playing the game bruh

[trail river]

Are you using normie unironically?

[light wagon]

psl stop calling people "normies" dude...

[lusty flame]

Normies and 300-400 hours in the same sentence, holy larper

[tardy obsidian]

Why do u call every one a normie

[lusty flame]

Because he's a reddit user

[maiden lichen]

xD

Solid comments here

[nimble topaz]

holy dude is actually using the word "normies" unironically

[jagged rampart]

Some people have a job, a family, a life next to gaming? we aint all like you that spend 20 hours per day at the PC

[cedar mulch]

Are you keen for the jungle?

[ruby patrol]

Herr, please help. Their degeneracy is hurting real bad

[trail river]

I feel like I’m listening to a 4chan moderator

[lusty flame]

😭 🤓

[sleek stone]

i am here to ask the same question everyone has been asking

[light wagon]

man we can either be normies or degenerates... choose one and stick to it pls.. otherwise I get confused easily...

[wise aspen]

just wait chief, stuff is broken

[sleek stone]

thank you

[ruby patrol]

Where did you get that assumption?
When me and the regular squad were "actively" playing HLL, we played for like maybe 2 hours every day or two. Is that alot?

[fervent grotto]

Yeah I mean everything is messed up for me

[lusty flame]

How many hours do you have?

[lament wind]

seen yourself

[ruby patrol]

Should be close to 2k

[sleek stone]

furthest I got is to signing the nda and then it looped back to logging me out again

[cedar mulch]

Guys are we keen for the jungle? I’m keen

[wise aspen]

my prediction is give it a few hours and they'll redo all the invites in waves or smth, but who knows

[fervent grotto]

I cannot even sync anything or log in

[sleek stone]

I am, im young, never played a vietnam based game/fps before

[light wagon]

It's the same for everyone atm Crafty

[ruby patrol]

And I've been in here since end of 2021. So it averages out to less than 2 hours a day.
Back in 2025, I didn't play for most of the year even

[wise aspen]

rising storm 2 is a older game from memory

[slim coyote]

Sooooooooooo wheres this follow up email? Honestly, if you can't get a beta sign up form right, makes me worry about the game itself 😂

[fervent grotto]

Oh thank god I thought it was just me

[lusty flame]

Looking at your profile, you have NO life

[fading rain]

Bro have a bit of patience

[cedar mulch]

Same! I have 0 hours on HLL, I love games like league and dota and rocket league. I’ve never touched an fps. I love Fortnite

[maiden lichen]

I woukd give you a gun, but germans dont really have those

[slim coyote]

Im perfectly patient, but it doesnt bode well if you cant manage simple site traffic to a sign up form...

[sleek stone]

wow really? i love fps games, grew up on them. Tbh I play most types of games. HLL is very fun. Squad (modern milsim) is very fun too

[fervent grotto]

My friending...don't mess with me. Lmao

[fading rain]

Oh dear

[tacit needle]

You guys shouldn’t have sent the invite e mail to everyone at the same time without investing in a server that can take on tens of thousands of requests. Instead you can send groups of people the invites one by one to smear out the traffic over time.

[nimble topaz]

not the fault of hll. it is firstlook.

[slim coyote]

This

[cedar mulch]

Yes, I love puzzle games, detective games, I have a lot of hours on Fortnite (at least 50) some guy in here is saying we’re not real gamers ):

[ruby patrol]

And then they have the audacity to ask why tf we don't have trust in the devs to make this somehow super great compared to old hll

[slim coyote]

Yeh read what Achilex said. Exactly this

[slim coyote]

This as well lol

[tacit needle]

Yeah you can always say someone else is responsible.

[sleek stone]

lol dont listen to him, hopefully you get in and enjoy HLL Vietnam

[regal jay]

It looks like the <@&1407786665459585105> community may have temporarily taken down the FirstLook platform due to the sheer amount of traffic! It’s incredible to see just how many of you are excited for Vietnam.

We’ll keep you updated as soon as FirstLook has resolved the issue and the platform is back online

literally firstlook

[nimble topaz]

i mean it is though? they are the one hosting the site.

[cedar mulch]

I got in! I can’t wait to play as Germans during D-Day!

[ruby patrol]

I also don't think a lot of people understand that the beta isn't there to play for fun, but instead to play for actual feedback and performance data

[light wagon]

germans during d-day... in vietnam? 😮

[cedar mulch]

Yes! And Solid will be my squad leader

[ruby patrol]

If this is going to be the first out of multiple betas, chances are the game isn't yet in the polish faze at all

[nimble topaz]

should be placing blame on firstlook. Firstlook charges $15,588/year for 50k playtester seats and they cant afford better/more servers?

[cedar mulch]

To teach me how to be a real gamer

[light wagon]

makes sense, you do need actual gamers by your side.

[sleek stone]

chances are this game will have bugs and glitches like HLL (and not enough content). Hopefully they learned from their mistakes

[ruby patrol]

Oh that's normal. But if this is a first closed beta, it'll have like ten fold the bugs

[tacit needle]

Who hired first look? They can’t keep an eye on the process, or contact them with a request to smear out invites or use a bigger server?

[sleek stone]

true

[sleek stone]

theyre probably still in bed lol

[cedar mulch]

Did everyone basically get an invite?

[nimble topaz]

I mean if you are paying $15k a year you would hope to not need to do any of that.

[light wagon]

What do you mean they can't keep an eye on the process... accordign to theil logo, they have 2 eyes.

[wise aspen]

They’d have people up to maintain it

yep lmfao

Exactly

[sleek stone]

i plan on recording gameplay when I get in the beta

[nimble topaz]

mods. nuke them.

[wise aspen]

Better read the nda before you do

[sleek stone]

nah

[light wagon]

NDA are just silly documents.. like "declaring" something on the border... who does that? just say no...

[sleek stone]

they really are, and only matter if you get caught

[vagrant rock]

People genuinely don't realise that an NDA is an actual contract

[sleek stone]

we do

[vagrant rock]

Very poor ragebait, my friend

[sleek stone]

they cant trace the gameplay back to me tho

[light wagon]

"trace the gameplay" xD

[sleek stone]

i plan on sending to to friends and uploading it on twitter

[regal jay]

them water marks about to hit different

Well you just wrote it in the discord so if any gameplay is leaked your be the first on the hitlist

When registering for an invite to the beta, this occurs "undefined 500 - Internal Server Error". I somehow managed to get to the form and agreement page.

Damn I'm already over budget... that means Teambuilding-trip to Ibiza!

[wise aspen]

$100 rupees

[tacit ferry]

Well, that's it. Firstlook failed. They should have simply provided beta access through more reliable platforms. Or at least warned in an email that there were problems.

team17 for ya

crap, rupees... teambuilding-trip to Aldi I guess.

I don’t even think you’d get a shopping cart from aldi with that

Does it work on my Motorola Razor V3?

[fading rain]

It worked for me

[quartz copper]

now speeking gerneral terms. not for hll.
playtest. has terget pool of players.
in bord sense some devs want feed back who grup who has hige experice and lower.
with feeling with ombording for ask for level and how often play the game

[wise aspen]

Perhaps an increase of people again?

[silver skiff]

lol

[fervent grotto]

I AM IN

[plain lake]

wouldn't surprise me

[fervent grotto]

lets go

I Love the smell of Napalm in the morning

[wise aspen]

Signed the nda?

[fervent grotto]

Yep

[ruby patrol]

@plain lakeSo the first signup was only to get into the second signup and now we actually are waiting for the dice roll?

[wise aspen]

Noice. Now just gotta get an actual invite

[fervent grotto]

I was like "YAY.................how'd I play the game now"

[light wagon]

It should've told you if you made it in the 1st beta wave after sing-up. Now we wait for the 2nd mail with the actual invite with the DL.

[wise aspen]

I think a lot of people thought “invite, I sign and play now” not “invite, I sign and wait for another invite”

In our defense, there are no Info in the 1st e-Mail.

[fervent grotto]

I'm Level 24 in Hell Let Loose am I not gonna be able to beta test ?

[plain lake]

This email was just an onboarding to get player info before we send out emails to the first beta testers. If selected you should get an email in the coming days with info 🙂

[ruby patrol]

Levels alone aren't a ideal way of stating a player experience, since they can easily be exploited, but is what it is.

[light wagon]

It literally tells you in your screenshot Crafty.

[ashen grotto]

so no more email today?

[unkempt oracle]

@plain lake are we going to get more information about the game / roles / abilities etc. prior to the beta test or is it going to be a hop in and find out kinda situation? I'd love to know a bit more about the game before hopping into my usual roles so I can actually test them properly against what Devs are expecting

[quartz copper]

[upbeat fiber]

So, sign up to a sign up

[plain lake]

Don't expect another today no

[upbeat fiber]

interesting approach

[blissful axle]

This means that we are not in the first wave?

[ashen grotto]

Alright, thank you

[plain lake]

Before the open beta yes. Not before closed beta

[ruby patrol]

https://quillbot.com/spell-checker

[wise aspen]

It’s like trying to win a $200 lotto, you wouldn’t mind it, but you’re not that pressed about it

[fervent grotto]

will my level in Hell Let Loose effect whether I'll be able to beta test ?

[plain lake]

absolutely Lucia. make sure you read the NDA and are comforatable with it before accepting

[plain lake]

the selection will be based on a number of factors as we will be looking for players of different levels to test, so don't worry about it for now

[broken schooner]

[trail river]

Have you had the thought that maybe English isn’t their first language

[livid folio]

Mayba NDA should be pinned somewhere too

[ruby patrol]

I bet it'll come plenty useful then.

[fervent grotto]

Alright then, I was worried since I'm only Level 24

[wise aspen]

Now it’s time to kick back, drink a few beverages and wait

[plain lake]

It's a big part of the onboarding, however I'll also look to pin it in the beta testing discord too 🙂

[plain lake]

[paper flume]

are we going to be able to play today or is it planned for another day ?

[wise aspen]

I’ve got a glass half the size of that. Magic in summer

[fervent grotto]

do you know when and how we'll be able to play Hell Let Loose: Vietnam ?

[quartz copper]

i am dyslexic. issues are what think might good tool for me not really that usefull.
culd write how manny tools tried.

are one tool used in school worked well for me tbh
wuld happy to use it. for privet use it 600usd. so outside my price range

[trail river]

I was expecting a yard glass

Disappointing

[wise aspen]

Nah not that big

[trail river]

Tsk

[fervent grotto]

that's alright, I don't view you any differently. and I understand what you are saying Lucia

[wise aspen]

But when I say “just 1 drink” I can fit 3 into that 1

[fervent grotto]

It isn't Whiskey lad

[plain lake]

another day. we need to get the onboarding done first before we can do the first beta test

[trail river]

wait

[wise aspen]

I would try with run tho

[trail river]

are those coloured out things what I think they are

cc’s

[wise aspen]

Yep

[fervent grotto]

any deadline ?

[trail river]

man of culture

[wise aspen]

In Australia we have Bundy rum. Absolutely god like

[clear karma]

@plain lake If I sign up now, is there still a chance to take the test?

[trail river]

anything but vb

[wise aspen]

Vb is horrible, xxxx is water beer.

[trail river]

Carlton dry is the best

Carlton dry and great northern

[wise aspen]

I don’t mind a Carlton dry. Great northern slaps, tooheys old is pretty good to me atleast

[plain lake]

I'd get it complete within the next day to be safe

[trail river]

Idm tooheys

it’s been a minute since I’ve had one

[plain lake]

you still have a day or so to complete it dw

[wise aspen]

I went to Melbourne a few years ago and was on a roof top bar. Hands down best drink there was xxxx. Wasn’t happy

[trail river]

Melbourne is full of hipsters

[echo patrol]

It's good ?

[wise aspen]

It’s good

[light wagon]

Roof top bar? Summer? Australia? man u need a Radler. U got those down there Aussies?

[clear karma]

Thanks bro！！！❤️

[drowsy mirage]

everyone practice your vietnamese accent, also Du Ma means Mfer

[wise aspen]

Probably in Melbourne but I haven’t seen them

[trail river]

What’s a radler

[wise aspen]

Just gotta hurry up and wait for the actual invite

[wise aspen]

I think we can all thank mr @plain lake for answering our questions on such a chaotic night/morning/after

[light wagon]

Half beer half sprite or some similar soda drink. very refreshing in summer.

[worthy tulip]

looks like just sent that invite to everyone don't mean we are in

[trail river]

Beer and sprite?

Goodness

[hallow vale]

Ben do you take bribes

[fading rain]

You will get An email for download when picked

[drowsy mirage]

yea they did it kinda weird, im in 2 other alphas and didnt even see NDA till i was actually selected. now we wait i guess

[plain lake]

no worries boss. just happy to be able to help clear things up. it's been a touch of a stressful day so far hah

[light wagon]

As I said, it is really nice on a hot summer day.

[trail river]

no im not doubting you

[plain lake]

I wish I did. Could be rich

[trail river]

Just seems like an odd combination

[light wagon]

A bit, they have all kinds of beer+smthn else combos here in Germany.

[zenith valley]

Do you know when the invitations to the play test will be processed and accepted? Will we be able to check it out today? 😅

[light wagon]

I particularly like this one. Dark beer + cherry.

[plain lake]

It won't be today no. Got to give people in all the timezones a chance to do their appicaiton first before we move on

[wise aspen]

This be Bundy rum

[hallow vale]

Any idea how many your expecting or allowing for beta Ben?

[drowsy mirage]

dudes got beer with a grenade pin lmao

[light wagon]

Rum cola is nice.

[wise aspen]

Those one go down like a treat

Spiced rum aswell

[plain lake]

less than the amount that signed up is all I can say 😅

[drowsy mirage]

yea that kraken is good bought it once

[plain lake]

you guys went crazy with sign ups

[plain lake]

oo love a bit of kraken

[hallow vale]

yeah I clicked on the link within 10 minutes and it was down haha

how’s it being decided it is first come first serve or luck of the draw or based on level?

[wise aspen]

Game is an absolutely killer I think, kraken goes down nice. I’ve started drinking it straight

[zenith valley]

Damn, was looking forward to test ist out today 🤣 😅

[plain lake]

https://www.rockgincornish.com/product/tropics-mango-and-passionfruit-cornish-rum/
This is my favourite summer rum atm. It's insnanely good

[fervent grotto]

And then after that we can download and play ?

[hallow vale]

Even if you do get accepted the beta tests probably won’t be for a little while after I imagine

[drowsy mirage]

ill check that out, might be a rare one for small town USA

[wise aspen]

That looks like it’d take 3-4 weeks to get to Australia

[plain lake]

It's not first come don't worry. Selection will be based on level/experience/etc. but with a mix of levels not just those with loads of hours. We need a mix of players so will be a bit randomm

[worthy tulip]

happy its going to be winter here

[plain lake]

If selected yeah

[amber wolf]

why?

[plain lake]

PAIN

[hallow vale]

Taiwans apart of China mate

[fervent grotto]

Oh let's go then cool

[light wagon]

Gotta check if I can get it here in Germany. Been a while since I had good rum. Switched to those "bier-misch" drinks a while ago and have been on gin+tonic before. Stopped gin and tonic after the public transport incident I had.. Fell alseep in a train and rode 1,5 hours in the wrong direction... it was a very cold december night xD

[wise aspen]

Ikr, so much pain. Plenty of time to kill tho

[hallow vale]

Correct me if wrong but I’ve always been taught Taiwan has been a bit like Tibet just under the name of China

[plain lake]

I'm classing it as a summer rum, as it's such a good fruity taste. They use real manago and passionfruit so it tastes so good

[amber wolf]

yes,but picture is hllv firstlook

[celest spire]

fully signed up baby

[sharp sun]

how many bottles to gurantee beta access?

[wise aspen]

Actually, in the beta, will there be roles such as scout, sniper and tank commander etc like there is in HLL? Or only limited to certain roles

[plain lake]

it's still HLL so you'll be able to play the normal roles dw 🙂

[wise aspen]

Ah copy copy

[celest spire]

figured the third party of firstlook was because there would be an NDA, so i was right

makes sense

[tacit needle]

But arty has mortars? Or what other changes

[unreal sigil]

here i was sitting on my lvl 30 thinking it would be impossible...

[drowsy mirage]

you know if the vietnam faction gets those conical rice hats?

[amber wolf]

you shouldn't classify taiwan to country on hllv firstlook

[celest spire]

that would be the vietcong, and even they didnt wear them that much

[wise aspen]

Now, you want some limited bottles of Bundy rum? There’s a few special camp fire blends I can ship, for guaranteed access? Jk I’ve drank them all

[celest spire]

NVA wore proper military equipment

[drowsy mirage]

ill buy the pack

[celest spire]

Vietcong faction wont be in the game on launch

hopefully they will come later

along with ARVN and Anzacs

[molten vale]

so I did the signup and everything a day or 2 ago and got the invite this morning, I'm guessing I am still not able to play yet and I still have to wait

[wise aspen]

Having anzacs in the game later down the line would 10 fold boost popularity from the Australian and New Zealand player base

You get an email when picked

[celest spire]

u got the invite to sign up today

[molten vale]

I see

[sharp sun]

yeah it was just poorly worded email, you were not invited to the playtest

you were invited to sign up for a lottery ticket to win access to the playtest

[celest spire]

so go to the email and follow the instructions

[buoyant widget]

Ant wait

Can’t wait

[wise aspen]

Invite to sign up, then invite to play game.

[buoyant widget]

Triple

I’m a kiwi so

Defo need Anzac

[ripe star]

I've completed onboarding, so am I 100% guaranteed to participate in the beta test? I just have to wait when it start?

[fading rain]

I picked Playstation but that wont be available in the first round?

[wise aspen]

I like this analogy

[celest spire]

[sharp sun]

[tall kayak]

Why did the sign-up proces for the beta request a permission of Xbox when you say it will be running per Steam?

[celest spire]

might be for future tests

or its just a default of FirstLook

[tall kayak]

I had uninstalled Xbox PC because it's of no use for me, so I feel bad

[sacred swallow]

Hey @plain lake , is HLLVietnam USK16 or USK18 ?
I remember BAttlefield had USK16 and after a few months they got from EU banning and need to change to USK18 !
Just a warning this could save some money and trouble !

[past steeple]

i got invited and completed everything, now how do i download it?

[celest spire]

now u wait for an email that lets you in

it will probably pop up in teh next few days id guess

[past steeple]

aaah okay i understand. ty

[celest spire]

np

[potent pollen]

Can the beta invites be written like a draft notice 🙏

[celest spire]

its going to be wave based, so some ppl might not get invited initially but will down the line

just luck of the draw when it comes to that

[trail river]

Jesus Christ

[fervent grotto]

Don't forget you also have to be accepted

[celest spire]

thats what i wrote below

[fervent grotto]

Didn't see it my bad, how many people will be accepted ?

[celest spire]

no idea

seems like thousands are signing up

so i guess it just depends on T17's servers and FirstLook

[fervent grotto]

Will having a higher level give you a better chance ?

[celest spire]

lmao no

[fervent grotto]

Then chillin

Or not idk

[celest spire]

yea its not connected to the first game

[fervent grotto]

It's just that in NDA they ask for your level

[celest spire]

if it was i would probably be in among the first cuz im a kickstarter supporter and ive been playing since first closed alpha

[celest spire]

think its just to get an idea of how muxh you play

like i said ive played since literally day 1 but im ''only'' lvl 91

cuz i play other games

[fervent grotto]

Ah I see, I play a hell of a lot but leveling ups hard

[celest spire]

yep

[fervent grotto]

I'm 24

As in level

[celest spire]

plus like half my playtime is from before levels were a thing

so if that time was counted to my levels id probably be like level 150

[fervent grotto]

Will the beta on PC be souly for steam ?

[celest spire]

not sure

but id assume so

[celest spire]

gues we will see

im not a dev so :P

[fervent grotto]

Is Napalm confirmed ?

[celest spire]

back when HLL ww2 was doing its closed alpha's it was based on if you were a kickstarter supporter and we were given keys

[celest spire]

you think they are gonna have a vietnam game without napalm?

they dropped close to 1 million gallons of the stuff

[fervent grotto]

Yeah fair enough dumb question

[crude sable]
