No, it’s just my honest opinion, I like the new update and updates, news about HLL, and HLL
Nah, kedo is cool
It's sold alot. Plus 2mill kinda low in contrast to other games. But great for an indy dev
You get a head injury?
😅
That’s why I’m suprised. That’s an amazing number for a first time Indy game
I'm friends with his friends
You need better friends then
Which friends you meant
Better than wombat, drew, and herrwilles?
How can you even remotely like this update 😂
Deez
Cause I’ve played it
No one has liked an update in the past 4 yrs
Yea. Theres always been parts of the updates that is good and helps the game but a majority have been a miss
4 maps
We get 2 a year so that’s incorrect
Tobruk, Mortain, Elsenborn ridge
And only about 2 of them playable
Driel, Amanda, snow, desert
Is that the true US flag?
Omg
All of the maps have been good. That’s been T17’s strength seemingly
Who is here to judge T17? I guess nobody
You know to much
Ehhhhh
1 faction. No new guns, tanks. Nothing crazy yet. Period specific changes yet
Too*
Ehhhhh, mortain and elsenbourn are eermmh
The Brit’s got an overhaul with like 3 new guns what do you mean???
i mean who even wantsw anything new when they yet have to fix the scoreboard
Overhaul to an Overhaul lmao. Cuz there on every map huh
I like Elsenborne but if I’m honest I think I’ve played those maps like… 5 times combined
I like new maps, all of them, Elsenborn, Mortain, Tobruk
One week without hotfix is fokin crazy m8. What is going on with this company. My friends are uninstalling
There's a reason ppl only play smdm
El Alamein was desecrated too
This is normal so idk what your suprised about
Had to get a rework too! Lmao remeber that
Lst patch they did it in like 3 days. One is a week
Okay that’s a lie cause release El Al was a million times worst
Fatal error after fatal error when people play
El Al absolutely needed an update
It's not a lie.
????
If you would critique too much game, I would send you in Siberia guys
When was that?
And you would work in infinite cold
Pak guns were bugged for like 6 months. Couldn't die to anything except a satchel?
That was iffy too
Omg I completely forgot about that
Yea, the crew would get mashed but the gun was fine
And they delete all too cuz the did stupid damage. 2 pak delete a heavy insta
A needed buff tbh
To be fair, seeing more then 1 pak gun every 10 games is basically impossible
They've since nerfed them into water gun shooters so
I bet they release a US v GER after the Smolensk map

Yall have a blessed day today.
I think their releasing a British map next
I think Juno is in the cards since the devs confirmed they looked into it but put it on indefinite hiatus
Gn
Rip 🫂
It’s how it goes
Just do it like Nike says
YES :D
Which map
Source ? Trust me bro ?? 🤨
trust him... he is the kedo who allegedly said he is a man in his twenties and then that he is 10 years old. So he must be telling the truth! 😄
any expirenced tank crews need 1?
How do you know?
People keep saying juno beach, but that’ll be a Canadian map
But also just random chittering from the devs and players
There is no difference weapons or uniform wise so it’d fall under the “Allie’s” as their called in game
Caen 
That’ll be a belter of a map
Should have been the first map
The way way things have gone up till now I wouldn't bet against US Vs Brits on Smolensk
Berlin. Maybe tweak American and German guns again. I like the 1 shot hardcore aspect.
9mm has like no stopping power. 45 mor so. But like rifle rounds would drop a mfer chest up. No body armour
I would fear Arnhem just can't work for as long as the devs fore 15 objectives into 15 squares on the map. The bridge and a lot of water just won't cut it. We would end up once more with one nonBridge strongpoint on one side of the river and the other nonBridge SP on the other side.
Imo the river maps should be special and have just 13 objectives (the bridge as always the only midLine objective).
Would be Remagen 2.0.
Can you walk through rivers in HLL? Oo
only through the one under the Driel bridge
in Remagen, it's deep
in Driel, it is shallow (basically impossible to drown anywhere there)
not according to the devs 😄
we can run through it and drive through it too without any harm
Sorry, but that's bs
it is
That's not a river, that's a sad and wet fart of a joke
If you can run and drive through a river, you might just remove it altogether
I wish the devs seen it that way. First we expected there would be just a narrow passageways through the water on the flanks (by going over some stuck ships), but in the end there is no any part of the river where it would be deep.
A bridge map where the bridge doesn't rly matter.
On the other hand Remagen bridge is just an intense meatrinder, as without any limitation to respawns or ammo, the peeps just keep bashing into each other headlessly.
...until another stupid thing, an airhead, gets called.
Are the devs still on vacation ?
They need a break from all this negativity and the hard work they put into the game for sure double it rq
Join community servers
The official ones are bs
but muh tickets bad
You will die 500 times on Remagen bridge and you will like it
That's a half full server, so what's the issue lol
Half full server = dead, unless I’m full rushing the point I’ll find nobody
Objectively not true.
I wouldn’t be complaining if it wasn’t true
s44 brain
But it isn't true
Can we even tell the difference tbh ??
So you are the main right
Now you are replacing them, Herr, where is hotfix?
He is responsible for new updates
Hotfix is gonna release next year with vientam, trust
Vietnam is the hotfix
this team's fixes aren't hot by any means
@fluid pawn good evening, Ben! Any news today about U19 PTE or U19? Or this week
if we get any news on U19 before this mess if fixed, I'll do radical things with a super soaker
hello one week already where is the fix
My question isn’t related to U18 hotfix and fixes
They doing hotfix, they were taking the information
I'm saying they should be fully focused on fixing U18 before continuing anything with U19.
Even a PTE
What’s wrong to get a few screenshots? It is doing Ben, posting screenshots
The dev team is working on Hotfix and other things etc etc
Ben could post photos and screenshots why not, it’s not big deal
A few screenshots makes sense. I saw PTE and assumed you wanted more. My apologies.
They likely already have things for U19 so sure show us what there is but the focus should be U18 fixes and refixes if needed
@oak current Das Altberg! Do you know when U19 screenshots be coming?
When their internal team says its fine to post pictures for U19, like any other studio I'd assume.
Okay
Would be awesome! Waiting
I think they have more urgent things to do currently, than to start posting screenshots for U19. So I'm fine with waiting.
Yeah, the mess hall, feedback, everything is burning with big fire, a lot of amount of messages with feedback
yes
True, they better add a pink tiger in the hotfix or im gonna be really mad.
you'll be really mad
Hello Kitty T-34
@nova pivot Dont type so long
Did he got shot in the back of the head and now his head is stuck on his keyboard?
😅
Sigma tiger
It breaks by itself
It can't be repaired so he risks it all on a life
Straight armour, Sloped armor is for the weak
Its weapon is a converted anti-aircraft gun.
It is unique and special
Beta T-34
Durable and resistant To be able to withstand the treatment that a Kazakh who cannot read and has 2 hours of training will give him
It can be easily repaired which means it is expected to be damaged.
Sloped armour, It's not strong enough to have it straight
It changes its main armament a lot, which shows that it is deficient and requires constant changes.
It is mass produced, generic and repetitive
I was cooking
Sparta the sloppa
does kajit have working update if i have coin?
The year is 2060, Update 55 has dropped. Servers still crashing since update 18.
This plus the hitbox issues still on some parts of stalingrad buildings
U55 with Spacific?
Spaceships?
and hopefully a battlepass by then?
💀
The Bell super weapon in U55
valid crashout tbh
turn this place into fortnite, its all we have left
Fortnite battletanks
Forknife battletankbattlepass
I feel like as long as the camos are historically accurate and don't add anything extra like camo nets or additional details, why not add them?
@oak current where update
Went out last week tuesday 👀
idc what anyone says but I fw the tank skins hope they add more :p
keep it realistic of course
but yeah some cosmetics to tank skins I absolutely dont mind
💀
imagine a real battlepass for hell let loose
lmaooo
limited time knife skins when?
I want my CS 3
nah because imagine theres like special animations they add for taking out a knife or like spinning the knife in circles lmaoo
that would be something
special reloads or inspects, all paid for separately.
it usually does start here tho- once they add one things (tank skins) they may add something else 🤷
seen it before with other games
Fun fact, you can add the tank skins on winter/snow maps
Driving a black P4 in the winter gives extra fashion score
:}
Is anyone was going to buy a German camo jacket from ww2. Is there any particular website or shop to buy from?
Temu.
So... when will we get any news about U18? I suppose tomorrow, otherwise we could only hardly be able to call a Wednessday the "early" in a week as announced.
Cold fix releasing Wednesday 11am BST.
How do you know?
It was a joke lol.
Any announcement anywhere outside Discord and Steam I don't know about?
aaah 😄
And let us pray so it won't break even more stuffs xD .
Well for console it will.
for PC probably too... they can't break the tradition, can they?
It runs a lot better on PC though I bet
Obviously I know you guys have so many different types of PC
I wouldn't say so tbh.
I suppose it only runs well if you have like 3-4 grand pc
micro (sometimes more like macro) stutters like hell, all the time
its been nearly a week and the devs still won't roll this back
They won't roll it back, accept it already
Who said that
It feels like Team17 developers actually really don't know what's causing crashes and server problems, otherwise they would release a hotfix pretty fast, without letting the game to slowly die.. And that thought itself is not giving me hope.
I mean, the weekend was in between and they don't work then, obviously 🤷♂️
And the game is not dying, Jesus Christ
They dont work on weekends?
it all started tuesday. Wed Thu Fri Mon, 4 days without any news or minor fixes.
They collecting information for the feedback first
We had news
I think it’s enough info rn for first hotfix now they might be working on it
You think loosing exp and fatal errors make people play more of it?
They definitly already did that
Well by the amount of my friends that deleted the game after the update... I can't say its as popular as ever mate
👍🏻
Absolutely fair, but that does still not mean it's dying
Sorry, but the word "dying" is so overused
Says the S44 player
The irony
We say the server is dying and no one bats an eye
Yes, exactly that's why.
we say game is dying and society....
Hotfix coming this or next week, it does not matter it’s hot fix
Because there is an itty-bitty tiny difference
oh no? we had a peak of like 9800 or so in April of this year, to a peak of like 4700 in the last 7 days on Steam
Yes, so?
this game's community is not dead yet, but its definitely dying out. it's been what, 5 years? It's natural
Start of the year was free epic week so that should be taken into account
3.4 today tho
Something many didnt like btw
but to argue that its NOT dying is kinda ridiculous
It's not at all ridiculous
Add HerrWilles face in HLL, now!
Like I said, "dying" is such an overused term
For Soviets or Germans
that bump didn't last long. it stuck around for a few months but the numbers kinda stabilized near where they were before the EGS release
Nah, if they add me for the french please
it's a term that is understandable by all non-natives and people that speak english so mate pls stop
Or for French
lol
I would buy it 100%
probably🤷♂️
it should go with some Panzerschokolade
Idk, the highest chance we got that HLL ever dies is when HLLV comes along and is better...
all ppl have to do is look at the metrics. raw data doesn't lie
I'm not saying that one does not understand the term, I'm saying that it's overused. As in people calling a game dying just because it has a low or very slowly declining playercount.
Yes, HLL will continue to lose players, but that does not mean that the game won't have active servers and players left
No, the core fan base would stay
Even if 'Nam is better, I like WW2 damn it, it's my war to hyperfocus on
That's the thing. If HLLV is actually good, bad news for HLL. If HLLV is bad, good news for HLL short-term, but long-term bad news because that will negatively affect T17's abilities to provide support.
same
You don't play the game anymore nor have it. Why are you trying to be relevant? jesus
its gonna be bad either way or at least not very positive. Best thing would be if HLLV gets its own community, but idk how likely that is.
I do not play the game "not anymore", I never played it to begin with
Because I'm coming from a game with a significantly lower playercount where people often say "omg its ded" with that obviously not being the case.
imagine posting in a discord for a game you never played. totally normal behavior
Don't argue with this guy honestly 😂
So forgive me, but I can merely smile tiredly with y'all crying that HLL is "dying" when it literally has thousands of players left and a player-potential also left in the thousands
dude just came in here to tut-tut everyone
nah, I came here to have fun and talk about HLL :)
True with a lot of copium :}
man my ignore list for this discord is so much longer than any other 'cord I am in. i guess it just added a new member!
God forbid, I know :D
stunning and brave, everyone rose and applauded
1 player in game
"still not dead!"
☝️ 🤓
yikes
see, this is why everyone here hates you
I don't understand the obsession with "Is the game dying?" You see the same question multiple times a week, yet there are dozens of full servers at any time of day?
It's almost like a stock broker's view of a business: "It's not growing, so it's dying!"
just one dude asking a nonexistent commander for supplies
mods here should take out the trash once in a while
everyone else can say "ded game" but automod flags me lmao
lmao, for violating what rule? 😄
You are not everyone, just saying
what is there to lose? people would get mad and stop playing the game? we can't even play the game anyways! lol
Which HLL would be with out core game base like mrkedo? It wouldn’t exist at all
Yes they should 💯
finally someone with common sense
That's exactly it. We aren't getting millions of new players so they game is CLEARLY dying
^^
Core game base - mrkedo
lmao
Where hot fix
volcano, go chase it
Side quest T17 devs
Anyway, by the logic of "if it's not growing, it's dying" almost every game is dying a week after launch 🙃
I was about to type that before the sudden hacked man
yeah the game is dying in the same way i am, slowly
It's a stupid logic that people can "technically" around all the time
dead, dying, w/e
HLLV will not increase HLL1s players, it can only go lower.
HLL has always had player retention problems. It's not unusual to question how much longer it can go. You can see significant player drop offs every month, it's all on steamcharts
I do have a hope we might see HLL & HLL:V share a front-end so players can move back and forth with ease though
My hope is 'Nam gets popular, people start pouring in from there to WW2 and we grow again
but doubtful
HLL currently:
- 5,703 total players
- 3,794 steam players (66.53%)
- 1,450 non-steam players (25.43%)
- 462 unknown platform (8.10%)
496 on official servers (8.70%)
4,744 on community servers (83.18%)
1 on pte/dev/qa servers (0.02%)
-# --------------------------------------------------
-# Source: https://mattw.io/hll-server-browser/
Lets not call other community members trash please
Is it a desire to somehow "maximize fun" by only ever being ahead of the crowd on a "new" game? (Also a very stock broker mindset)
Its not kind nor nice
clearly the game is ded
definitelly 😄
I love how he thinks people should get kicked because he is annoyed by them lol
naeh, lets move on please
not worth discussing this at all
I also don't understand why people look at server population so much; like, all I need is one server I can play on, why do I need to know there are 50 other servers that are also full 😄
Wait, there is "1 on pte/dev/qua servers"? THAT'S GOTTA BE THE HOTFIX WE ARE SO BACK
yep I noticed that too hehe
You are like a guy that joins a random group in a pub
it's the one guy who recently downloaded the game but it downloaded PTE instead. He's wondering why the game is empty too
There was a time I played a Rev War mod for HL1 & 2, had like... 100 players on a great day for years.
People crying about 5000 players 🙃
Now, who is that? One dev, one QA or one playtester? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
LMFAO
Far from the truth 🙃
Who is the PTE guy?
some dev
It's Kedo, he's kedoing all over Smolensk
think I could find the one server if I got on PTE?
devs forget to close it, wouldnt put it past them
nope, it's more like some dev server, not a true PTE one
PTE 19 is not coming rn
a man can dream to be right about a MASSIVE oversight or exploit
It's coming out tomorrow kedo

u19 has been renamed to u18 coldfix
sorry everyone, three updates this year just wasnt possible
Servers keep crashing
when hotfix
Nobody knows
Dude at this point just roll back U18 until its fixed.
There should be a counter to reset whenever someone says "roll back U18"
People ask for roll back @oak current
anyone having connection lost to host problems? keeps happening to me and my buddy
Yes
...so?
its not every match but it happened when i was like 55-1 in a tank
That’s the main word last few days
aha
lost all my xp
Who doesn't 🙃
(well, me >:), but I don't count)
You can read it in feedback or mess hall or Reddit
I'm aware of it
What means roll back? Removing the update and backup to previous version
Freshbakedgoods explained everything really well. https://youtu.be/-4bAGeotr5k?t=14
Update 18 for Hell Let Loose is finally here, and after spending some time with it, I’m not sure this is the direction the game needed to go. From the armor rework to the new gameplay systems and balance changes... this update is not it. In this video, I share my first impressions and honest thoughts on how Update 18 plays, what’s changed, a...
The whole progress would be downgraded imo. If roll back until fix, all stats etc
I’m not waiting any of it, I’m busy rn to play the game, it would be fixed already when I come back
His intro is gold xD
When it comes it will comes, I’m not waiting, just would play 🔜
You never know lol...I guess this was the biggest update in the game since T17 got the IP. This said, Q&A was done with experts in candy crush saga
Wdym by that
Ben is doing some research in Italy for the upcoming italian front update
The goat
Experts in Candy Crush tend to be annoying white elders who yell at clouds. He's making fun of T17 for either not testing, or doing bad.
Cool if it’s true
Visit Italy to create Italian front and map - sounds nice! Would be nice addition to the game, Sicily or another Italian map in 1943
Is this the basic chat room for the HLL channel? Or am I missing where people link up to play?
this is HLL general chat
Got it. Thank you guys
?
Ben is playing what he wants, what’s wrong with it
stupid zapped guy
You are bigger than that
than the zapped guy?:
Tester didn't know what they were looking for, considering there were testers
We had testing about the map
Stalingrad, we didn’t have had test about other features and tank rework
I'm not talking about the PTE, I'm talking about people purposefully trying to break the game and find the mistakes
Was the kill screen tested: "Tell us if this is awful"
I didn't see any big issues in adding that, but if it is going to tell me "small arms fire" "heavy ordinance"....it's really unnecessary
No it wasn’t
It was only PTE about map, it’s weird that we weren’t testing other features in PTE and it wasn’t PTE this time for it
Shermans having suspension issues (veering left in a straight line) , panthers looking like the real german tanks that would never get to the frontline, that bothered me
I guess that if they'd invited community volunteers to be trained and thoroughly test it, they'd have got a better end result
Or they could pay, as you'd expect from work being done
youre a sucker if youre gonna test things for free.
Let them do their own QA, let them fail if they need to
The is always some sort of dynamic in software development that if someone does work to make something slightly worse its always accepted because effort has been spent. It becomes awkward otherwise.
I agree, but again, it'd have better results then what happened last week
I didn't know that, but it really seems realistic
And also, if the IP was acquired with a broken code, nobody would enjoy, but I guess people would understand if they had come clean about it
Why can’t they just give it to a bigger company to sort this so called broken net code out
If this game didn’t have optimisation issues it’d be an absolute belter for eternity
That’s for console anyway
And I know people will say “well just buy a PC”
It’s not the point, we deserve a polished game
Hello, I am having a massive issue where the game doesn't find any server. Spent the last hour trying to fix it but no avail
. Has a point here
I know bud, but you know, the everyday person can’t afford a high end PC these days
Yes polish forces should be in the game
Yh man, but there’s so much to add, can they even cram it all in
Adding the polish isn't polishing?
Message here for some help https://discord.com/channels/316459644476456962/1271718922734796865
We found the guy who was on PTE!
maybe
I said polished game
Something polished is something with polish in it
Yeah we did
It’ll be unlikely that they’ll be added
Then the game will never be polished
screw 'Nam. Remake HLL OG without the code spaghetti! Give us a proper game!
Can you change your display name to something else than just "."? Thanks.
Why not?
It has now.
Are you a Newcastle fan?
Change it back @dim snow
I actually am, yes
Me too 🤝
Fair play, I’m not even from Newcastle, but just supported the team my dad did
UP THE TOON
Tonali a new deal hopefully
I'm going to DM you
It’s not unique anymore
Check your dms
As in... Advertise your community or seed or...?
Whats a
Seeding is when people join an empty server and just wait around for more people to join. There are special rules, such as only fighting over the middle point (some servers are different)
So... I can advertise? I have 0 members..
🫂
Do you want to create a clan or something like that?
fix the god damn game jesus christ
Yes
I uploaded my server
Tuesdays & Sundays seem to be the prime time for numbers for HLL.
6-7k on them days
Comp keeps this game running
Big round of applause for the comp scene doing that! 🥳 🫂
We love our resident tryhards!
so you want him to have it worse than cruzification
Did I break any rules?
kinda wrong channel, but ok
WDYM
seeding channel is for when you want help with seeding rn
see #division-rules for advertising your thing
Itd have a larger audience if the game worked
hi im installing on steam. do i need the test branch or can i leave it uninstalled? thanks
No need to install the PTE if you aren't going to play them. Save the space. They only happen every 3 months or so.
thank you ❤️
Couldn't refund the game and decided to play it, fell through the map on my 4th respawn. Truly amazing
Happens. Not the first nor the last
lousy game
I mean you have to put more than 12 minutes into it to form a legitimate opinion
I have 44 hours
havent even scratched the surface yet
Played it years back, now it's completely fked
I've been trying to figure out when the last time I played that felt good and it was seemingly about 2 years ago. A combination of player comms, friendliness, and game state being stable.
thats because it is brutal to new players
I have fallen through the map on 2.. which it was because the outpost was too close to a building that didn't have a floor.
Cool, but it was fine last time I've played.
It's been literal years since I've fallen through a map in a game
people fall through the map?
I've only been blow apart so hard my head phases through
new bug for me to experience I guess
Also, nobody talks
This wasn't the case last time too
What happened in the 3 years I didn't play?
Depends on the server you play on
Falling through map. (8/2024)
ive fallen through the map like 2 or 3 times in nearly 3,000 hrs of playtime. its a video game dude, weird stuff happens every now and then
People say depends on server but reality is that 70% of people don't talk unless someone else talks first
dont get me wrong, this update is broke af and its crazy they pushed it out in this state but they will fix it or roll it back
Use that mic... And play on community servers for mics.
I don't get why people don't want to call out in local "I got infantry 220 from me" and suddenly have EXTRA HELP
being a dev for a game you neither play nor find enjoyable must be an experience
No community servers with players in my region rn
What region?
join a community like Circle and that would probably help you find it more fun
But I hop on European like late night? Lol
I live in germany. The average flight passenger from the US has better internet than the average german on the ground.
I played on Circle like Saturday night, full server. (I am central US)
there are a ton of German communities in HLL, just find one you enjoy when their server is up, and join their Discord
Bold of you to assume that I want to play with other deutschbags
that would def be something if there wasn't a german community in a WWII game
that links you up with others from your area and you can join voice channels and pick a server to play in. solves the no mic issue
doesnt solve but helps greatly.
true, some of the dudes with mics still dont pass the IQ test lol
I keep saying a tutorial with forced auditory and microphone testing means people would be choosing to not talk, then we can yell at them harder
Force people to talk and you get the modern european pvp voice chat experience (No one ever makes a sound)
I had that lately too I think
Gotta play the right servers, personally I try to stick to servers with player level limits but you need to reach those levels first lol
how were you hoping on getting a refund after 44 hours....
Because it suddenly asked me to accept a strange new end user license agreement after not playing for 4 years
everyone acting like lucerne is wrong saying 'lousy game' have any of you played the last week
New user license must be, this game doesn't guarantee that you will not face disappointment toward your purchase
I do not understand how you can break a game so severely that I can fall out of bounds when spawning in
That is the disappointment
that used to be not rare in the past
hll is just that oldschool :}
Talking to my clan I've come up with the theory that we've all developed some sort of 21st century Stockholm Syndrome
it helps if you just dont test anything
Did they switch out developers some time ago? The old versions of the game in the past were fine.
yes but the bug ur talking about existed then too
they did, and no, it also wasnt fine :}
The developers stayed, the tester have moved on.
It's affective memory, he kept only the good memories
I guess T17 is just a front for Disney, they've done to HLL what they've done to Star Wars
i once revived a guy on that open soviet map near a pile of wood
next thing i saw was him falling through the map
Damn, the game has a ton of falling spots 😭
which is kinda understandable with maps that are so, so big
You can tell from the picture that it's that spot. I had the OP n ext ot the buildling. It was my oopsie.
WAIT, I ONCE ALSO FELL THROUGH THERE 😔
LOL
You can also get stuck inside the rocks of the desert maps
My favorite stuck was on the old Stalingrad.
If you're near a pile of logs, die and get revived you'll fall
They did an airhead, I believe South of Kosmo?
Sorry, South of Nail Factory.
Into a big house at the corner of the street... and we were all stuck inside 🙃
been there, done that
Another lesson learned, NEVER let your dev team schedule a vacation at the same time they release a major update
dbd ahhh devs
game still broken?
rehmagen mentioned 😋
Kinda, but the devs will release the hotfix this week
is asia server bearable?
Tough to say, most people who are on right now are American/late night Europeans.
how much ms if i play on europe?
get into a match and check it out, anything above 300 is going to be insuferable
I'd say above 200 is no good.
I play on 160 before and it's fine (It shows 130 on the list)
will try, thanks!
just got here
Welcome in
Hell nah
Above 400, I'm from a literal corner of the world, play at 300 ping and it's surprisingly playable
Anybody else having problems trying to open the game?
It's been checking for updates and syncing data for 30 mins🥲

I LITERALLY LIVE ON THE AZZCRACK OF THE WORLD 😭
Clear your Cache?
Now I’m wondering.. is it possible to clear cache in your brain or is it always there?
yeah it's called lobotomy
I think we all need a good lobotomy.
You sir, are a lifesaver
Not all heroes are sirs
I thought lobotomies were a requirement to play HLL
Glad to help 
Nah, that’s only the recommended settings. None of us achieved that
Does anyone have a TPL invite link? Trying to join a clan but the links from smithers videos dont work
If this is competitive, look here for all comp orgs. https://discord.com/channels/316459644476456962/1273956824491491349
Ah the link im looking for isnt in there
its the console competitive league
I can send you it in DMs
Please🤝
I should be in your message requests
Day 62 of asking when they will fix update 18
Not sure which part of the update is the worst, but being in a match changing firefight only to suddenly disconnect from server, is like an unwanted ad break during a live sports game.
Over 220 is into sucky territory - under 200 is playable.
Agreed. Seems the ping on the list is before you connect with any game data transfers. So I use the list as an indicator but always add on another 40+
What does the new death screen say if you get melee killed, anyone got a screenshot?
haven't got meeleed yet
good question
but hopefully it won't matter as hopefully they will revert the deathscreen
as well as the ADS FOV slider
I stabbed someone yesterday
I was doing recon shenanigans at the enemy’s base and some guys were looking for me but I hid in the grass
Guy litterally walked up next to me, stopped, then got his binos out to look for me
Stabbed him right in the back
You just need to get into a round with @visual tiger and you will get knifed 100%
It’s amazing how hidden you can be when you don’t move or shoot people unnecessarily
Probably only fired 4 rounds in 50 minutes during that match
I once hid between a wall and a hey Ball on Hill 400 and the enemys couldnt fine me.
I was on Hurtgen
They needed to come back every 5 minutes because I waited in the cap
I hid in the middle of the fields so there wasn’t any landmarks to bring attention to me
The bushes and grass hid you really well. I wasn’t even wearing camo
Lmao
To be fair people also are kinda blind
grass not rly... renders only up to a short range
Console moment when grass renders the same for everyone
Yea. People walked within 5 meters of me like… well 5 times
It was hilarious
I just waited for arty to fire a shot, move to a firing position, let them fire a few more shots to get comfortable, get up, shoot a round when they fired the guns, got back down, crawled away, then repeated ad nasuem for almost an hour
I could tell they were going crazy when one of the guys respawned as a tank commander and moved a puma to block my shots
It didn’t work
Lol
I had an epic duel with an arty player for about 30m yesterday.
Bro, gave up after a while
spotter spawncamping a poor arty guy trying to get back, what a duel 😄
I am joking ofc. 🙂 , I don't know the circumstances
He killed me just one time less than I killed him. 😅
This arty system is doomed, very unfun
Usually I dont spawn camp its not fun
Depends which system you mean. 
I do, because that's why I am there for - to stop the arty and make sure the peeps will have to spawn elsewhere and waste time runnign back.
As I tank player getting shot in HQ for nothing feels really bad.
So I try to avoid doing it myself
that's why they need to remove the HQ arty guns
I nor anybody won't have a reason to go there anymore
Hopefully
The one in HLL 💀
there are 2 now: CMD arty off-map call-in and the HQ arty guns
I mean… that’s kinda recons whole job. At least the sniper
You exist to go to the HQ, hide, and disrupt the artillery
If you aren’t camping the guns then that’s artillery blocking off attack points and pinning down enemy positions
Well your kinda just playing recon badly then
One shell every 3 seconds doesnt really do anything. 😅
But yes its the job.
Have you not played the game?
But... but... 🥺
The arty strike from cmd is only in pugs. That thing is so messed up it shouldnt exist
Even 1 arty gun can make infantry’s life hell
It definitely should exist but holy they made it way overpowered
Heresy
It should have been one spot, 8+ minute recharge, and cost like 200 munitions
Or better yet have it be adjustable like Sam’s suggestion
they just need to make it not to kill spawnpoints and to be adjustable... and depending on the setup make the price high as well as the cooldown
Also it should have been added when the arty guns got taken out. Having them exist at the same time is OP
Also that
I dont know how you can introduce such rapid firepower and make it kill garries. Whoever brainstormed this in T17 hasnt played the game
Like I said, it’s a necessary addition but they added it in the worst way possible
Hence why HQ arty can’t destroy spawns
Either they rework the new ability ot increase the cooldown and spread. The price is fine imo.
In my opinion the game really doesnt need more AoE
The garrison killing part is should be taken out...
100 munitions is way to cheap
Agreed. Which is why the HQ guns should be deleted and the commander ability fixed
Its double the price per shell of normal arty....
depends on the resource/node status and how much he uses other stuff
Altough mortars should still be added
Fair
More than double actually
The game needs some kind of long range no los aoe ability, but the abilities provided right now are terrible. HQ Arty and CMD strike are poorly designed.
Why do you find HQ arty poorly designed?
So mortars
SPAs 
Because their easy, hard to counter, and way to simple to operate
where can I upload my Hell Let Loose server?
wanna play
They aren’t even adding SPA’s. You saw the leaks
Artillery should be a balanced commander call-in only, change my mind
Their just assault guns
Buy the game and I will
The epic no gifs are all here
Willes, do the funny thing and mute Dorbian before he sends his Epic
Abu can do it
Well what is the gameplay?
- 3 Guns are just too much
- Stationary sitting in HQ always in the same place so everyone knows where you are the moment a shell lands (biggest issue)
- Smoke shell is useless, I know it looks fun but you can often see through etc. This is something that needs to be addressed globally and also to stop nvidia filters from enabling you to look through smokes
- The result of this stationary gameplay is -> If all guns are in use the aoe is ridicolous. The counter is to either splash the arty guns with a tank or rocket snipe accross the map or to send the recon unit in HQ sector and trap it there because otherewise the ability is too strong. I mean how often are people whining in pugs about "please recon go kill the arty"
So the arty isnt only badly designed but in pugs it also takes away the recons playstyle and lets be honest no one actually wants to camp HQ/get camped. There is no skill involved
Thats the extrem Tl:DR version
God I hate it when he makes good points
I feel like I’m the one guy who enjoys the recon camping haha
Nothings more fun then evading enemy patrols and making arty players games a paranoid mess
lost connection to host ,.....just happened twice in a row , anything anyone know about?
Just U18 things
They’ll fix it sometime this week
until the arty player gets somebody to drive a recon tank to f u up.
We need Stug 3 in game
And assault guns
Tank balancing already set ablaze... even tho Mediums with heavy cannons and not turrets would be fun for sure.
so also we need Panzerfausts, mortars, SPGs, TDs, heavy MG emplacements...
And playtests
right
Hello dorbian, huge fan of yours!
Yes
No
Agree
I forgot... I think friday or monday next week. 50/50
Stug tank destroyers have the same 75mm gun that PZ4 and Panthers have. Dont really see the point in adding them unless you use the short barrel Stug as an infantry support gun platform
It would be more faster and mobility
Not like his Variation would stop anyone pinging him regardless... 🥲
Oh wait HLL tank gun performances are just plucked from fresh air and are meaningless
I sense sarcasm
Girls Und Panzer reference?
Stug wouldnt be that cool anyway, germany had so much cooler TDs
The one based on a tiger chassis would be cool af
Was it really the exact same gun? Because they had differing names
S44 has both
Sturmtiger? 
As a mod, yes
Performance wise it was. The difference was mostly just how it was mounted and how the recoil pistons were orientated iirc
Thank you!
One was a StuK, one was a KwK, but I never knew whether there was an actual difference
Like in a Stug you need different mountings and gun mantle because you have to slew the gun whereas in a panther you dont have gun slew because its in a rotating turret
When are you gonna host that mod?
The british should have had different nomenclature for the 17pdr because it had slightly different recoil pistons and the breach block was slightly different in the firefly but nah. Its 17pdr
Nevermind
No idea, I can let you know if you want
There is also different calibres for the guns throughout the difference models. So like L/43 calibres vs L/48 calibres
(Cant wait for someone to try and have a go at the use of calibre here because they dont know “calibre” for artillery refers to barrel length, not diameter)
Still no announcement ????
Tell me and im gonna nuke them all
What’s happening here @lost pulsar
Was there a playtest for the latest update?
For stalingrad
Not really for the tanks...
Yikes. Youd think theyd atleast play test such a big armour rework
Playtest = PTE
I assume they tested it themselfes...
That is definitely an assumption
People assume a lot these days.
Like that patitions do something
:}
Man its actually quite sad seeing the community reaction and the state of the update. The game used to be so fun and i made so many great friends i still talk to playing on it
hmmmm... so how will we get some news about the U18 bugfixing progress 😮
Either with greg or the bot
Idk
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zsnI_kAhosU
By the modder, three years old
Also fun fact, his mod even has the E 100 lmao
Either with greg or the bot
...used by Greg heh
T17 consists out of AI only
hourly? I thought half-an-hourly! 😄
yeah guys, we just play HLL too much... so they programmed the game to stop us for our own good
when hotfix
ah thats why the stopwatch strap animation has been broken so long... they finally cracked stopping time itself
Will save me having to play on 75 FOV
the level 34 game dev 🫡
lmao been getting sniped by lvl 50's accross the map
maybe it was him
im turning mine bacl to 90 tho feels like cheating
pz4 and panther do not have the same gun
feel free to leave a vote in here if you are interested in the topic #1425919813129076788 message
what are your thoughts on current FOV slider as is but increase the sniper zoom?
This game is on life support and needs a medic fast!
No one plays medic sry
true
it would make another scope(s) to have an unrealistic/unauthentic magnification
one problem creates a new one
fixing a problem by creating another one is a dead end
remove the fov
but we can't know if the current ADS FOV restriction (that is in place), wasn't put to the wrong side of the slider - the devs would need to say soemthign about it to clear it up
they said they don't want advantage, yet they put the restriction to not be able for the FOV to be higher than the nonADS one
however the higher number is not equal to higher zoom, but vice versa - I would say somebody of the devs got it mixed up
well... if they mixed up direction of katyusha strike on Kursk that is being fired from GER HQ direction... why not, right? 😄 can't rule out that option that it was just a dev mistake
FOV should be there just for the different cases of different monitor aspect ratios imo
someone mentioned that the lowest ADS FOV set to 60 is the same as the OG garand ADS FOV - it does feel the same when playing to me
so if it was unintentional, does that mean they intended the garand to have less zoom than originally...
it's not
thx
The garand in ADS is 60fov if you have a normal FOV of 90-120.
The issue is fov has some kind of multiplier or something below 90 fov
ah i have the normal fov setting set to 90
Yeah, so if you had ADS FOV at 90, you'd be seeing 60
it's not about the FOV though, it's about the magnification strength on this or that ADS FOV setting
But if you're set to 60 ads FOV you're actually going down to like 40 or something
Yeah for sure.
What people actually wanted was a consistent ADS FOV across weapons.
When ADS FOV is set to 60, all guns should go to 60
yeah i feel pretty motion sick if i put it on horse blinker mode, but can see it is an advantage to those who can handle it
because FOV setting 60 is not equal to FOV 60 when ADSing with this or that weapon
it's a relative modifier, not an absolute value
Yeah, exactly
People asked for an absolute value and the devs decided to make up something new 😂
by that you mean say i set them both to 90, the view still zooms a little when ADS (not hold breath)?
yes
there still is zoom because of that
great thx for helping me get it
And it is different per gun
Garand goes to 60
G43 goes to 70
It's why people think the guns have different accuracy and stuff, because the 360/cm when ads is different depending on what they're using
the problem of guns accuracy is actually the fact that not the gun is accurate, but that the man is able to see like an eagle
and aim laser accurately
but its not different per gun now we have the slider? im confused
the level of zoom is different per gun, no matter the ADS FOV setting
they have given it a very misleading name to be sure
some peeps think that they will have whatever ADS FOV they will choose, with every gun
ngl thats peek HLL coding
zoomLevel = "some";
I think today's testing will determine what day the hotfix can release. So no news on what day yet, sorry
The KwK 42 is a better optimised anti gun than the KwK 40. But they are basically the same weapon system with a lot of commonality. The ammunition is nearly identical aside from the wider driving bands on the amunition for the KwK 42.
So next week? Or in 2 weeks?
"Aiming to drop next week"

Still aiming for this week, that hasn't changed as of now
Next week? I thought you guys said "next week" last week already??? ⬆️ statement got updated
Hi @lost pulsar Can you provide any insight on the ADS FOV slider? It was said it is not to provide the advantage and so was limited, and yet it got limited on the wrong side of the FOV slider - people can zoom in with nonScoped weapons almost the same as with the sniper rifle scopes, whole only the zoomed out side of the slider follow the limit set by the base FOV.
Are you concerned about a game you don't play...?
I can't provide any insight on the decision regarding the FOV slider - only that I've shared the image examples and feedback on it to the team
That's more than good enough, thanks. 🙂
Not concerned because technically I couldn't care less, but still regularly amazed/baffled by the development lol
Plus, I still want HLL to at least somewhat succeed because it failing would harm the tactical shooter genre in general
Weird way of showing it mate
And I don't want that because that would harm the game I play as well
Thanks for the reply
The fact that different weapons have different fov values is pretty bad design. Although it is possible to feed screenshots to AI of the different guns when ADSd with different FOV values via the slider and calculate the exact FOV multiplier that's used. That way you can get an uniform cm/360 by setting ADS FOV per gun with the multiplier in mind
I'd prefer if they just fixed the game
not rly - imagine we had the same FOV for all weapons, then we would be able to shoot so accurately even with a damn pistol
You know there's a thing called weapon damage that's used for balancing in games?
you know headshot is always a killshot?
It isn't in most games lol
if there is a strong zoom and if the target is not moving much, it is far too easy to hit it just because of the zoom
and when it comes to normal rifles even when it moves it is easy to hit it - one just gets used to it after a few rounds and thx to the zoom, becomes a sniper without the sniper scope
Man, it's impossible to talk with you. Nvm
facts hurt, I know
the thing is, the few people want the ADS FOV slider just because... they want it, not because the game objectivelly needs it or because the game is suited for it
It isn't a fact that you like HLL mechanics
Why was rolling back to U17 not an option and starting again with the feedback the community gave. I think this hurt T17 in the long run what happened this last week
Balancing weapons through FOV is bad design because it leads to the problem that you describe
Killing people with a pistol if you unlock fov
good question though
this update is beyond bad, a revert would have been much prudent move
Rcon v2 that’s why
good stuff, it feels like the devs just needed more time to polish it
time they were not given probably
A rollback was never going to happen
yep, now it would be too late anyway
the best are the new little things - like being able to see who is dead on the tacMap or picking up the placed down supplies
very useful
I mean, so would've been actually QA testing the game before patch release. but alas.
(because rolling back is not as easy as people claim it to be and hurtful to T17, I guess; he most likely won't answer you)
Well, couldn't drive tanks when I played in an European server at 300ms, but maybe it was me
QA in the big 2025? Crazy !
Why do you think he will not answer this question?
Because that would just lead to him getting flooded with more people asking more (angry) questions why they didn't just ✨ roll back ✨ the update, and that's nothing that he will do because he's a T17 member, not a CM.
Its crazy when he answers something once, twice is amazing, thrice is threatening.
Can we roll back S44 to when it had players?
No because I do not want the game from back then back.
I like to being able to shoot out of windows, having better graphics and slowly but steadily improving performance
Oh god, he's typing 
Perhaps I was wrong 
Creates more problems than it solves, logistical nightmare when you include console platforms too.
I was in fact wrong 
We both need to leave the server now.
We? You :D
Looking at the current situation, a rollback would not be so unreasonable. The game has been virtually unplayable since the update. The community would be willing to test the updates beforehand and then, provided the developers are open to suggestions, make improvements or changes. The player base is shrinking, and an “update” like this is not exactly productive.
I will so link this message to everyone who says "wHy dOnT yOu jUsT roLL bAcK"
Thanks for the reply
Yes, and it's easier to just fix the crashes instead of rolling the entire update back
may be true, but bc of that they should've wait for the update and test it
Naturally, true
The (assumed) lack of testing is what caused this mess to begin with
I do enjoy that the first update they release after announcing Vietnam is hated by most of the playerbase 
Not unreasonable, I agree - you could argue its warranted given the scale of negative feedback. But to consider a roll back, it would have to be disaster levels of bad I reckon. The player levels are still okay - looking at Steamdb; if levels droped to hundreds of players for example, that would be a clear indicator something was majorly wrong.
A rollback would set us back weeks at least, and could actually take us longer to implement than simply patching forward
All they really have to do is fix the new crashes and stop the arty strike ability from killing garrisons and then the game is back to being playable
@worthy charm can you please pin this
Or can you pin it, Greg
Hated is relativ, when you ask people in pub games they are usually more positive about update than long time player/comp players.
Only thing I have 100% only heard negative things are the disconnect...
Can you let people know asap if the game is being patched this week though. We have multiple tournaments on pause waiting for a hotfix. That's legitimately thousands of players waiting for a hotfix before they can play the game they want to play
The amount of crashing is obscene. I've played pubs, people are talking about it all the time
Hey, at least they are talking 
Isn't that an improvement? 
Not for me, havent crashed once in my about 15h of U18 yet.
As soon as I have 100% confirmation, I will share that with you all. Still on track for this week, but I'm not going to share that until it's locked in mate
True, but as you can see; Game crashes, Lost connection, rubberbanding etc. I do understand your Point, totally! But it would be really helpful to give us a date when the hotfix will be there. Critical is right, Tournaments like the Hca are on Pause bc of these major problems which U18 gave us
Moderator privileges yet again, their game crashes less
Today's testing should determine the date
Thank you
This week is piss poor. It's been a week since the update dreadful management to not even have stuff in place for roll backs if there is major issues.
Not to mention the dreadful management that thought this update should of been pushed to live servers
don't forget guys - I am sure you could find more testers among us here, who would be willing to sign NDA and stuff... just to help. Some of us may sound like pain in the butt often, but we do it for one sole purpose - for a problem topic being visible and for the game to get better.
I'm not keen on doing a rollback, I'd prefer just boycotting the game until it's fixed. Leave a negative review, play something else and go outside. It will be far more effective than a rollback.
I'm genuinely surprised HLL is still positive on Steam
So far, only one day out of October has been more negative than positive
Id happily sign an NDA and do free testing if it meant the game updates were tested thoroughly
Probably you, I can drive tanks perfectly while living in the azzcrack of the world
Only moderator priviliges I have been showing of the last week is peek tank skins.
same here
we would be there to blame then too... if any problem would pass into the game/update 😄
Please allow us to test on these private builds. Theres so many people that want to help. PTE's are not the answer, and havent been in some time.
We need to test dozens of full matches on these test builds so we can find the bugs.
PTEs are going to be mostly dead anymore, EXPLORE mode encourages offline testing/exploring
but the stuff that is about the online part, should be tested thoroguhly internally with peeps that would be there just for that
we don't even need to be paid 🙂
Create a Hell Let Loose insider program like for SOT
Модератор
Yall get that hot patch yet
No
😂 yeah ima keep this game uninstalled permanently over a week and nothing from your devs
Not nothing
^^
i knew it, since there was no player number dib they consider it not so bad
how can i add HLL in Nvidia app?
settings-games and apps "scan again"
didnt work
Pray
Actually, it depends on where you have it
You need to place the HLL executable smth, it has a long azz name
You place it on the Nvidia app, pray that it works and you'll be able to use it with it and Take clips, tho sometimes it doesn't work for no reason at all
uh ohhh i tried to add the desktop one but it showed up as "HLL url" with no icon
and now when i try to play thers this Error about easy anti cheat💔
iuts aalmost been 5 days and yet it still giving issues and error like cmon bro
@worthy charm @cyan saddle my bad for the ping but I created a hll mod-team ticket, do I close it to send it in to the mod team or do I keep it open for you all to read it?
Im on it.
awesome. I appreciate it, didn't know if I closed it or not
Please keep these things to modmail tho
There's nothing else to keep to modmail. just was a question
Hm, I used the executable that has something about "shipping" or smth like that
I would send you a screenshot of which one but unfortunately I'm not near my pc 😔
wont that be harmful for my Pc?
appreciate it bro sanks
You need to rename the HLL.Exe to anything different
And then rescan for it
gotchu
Every time the game updates you'll need to redo it
I have no idea tbh
Mine worked by pure force, genuinely spent 4 hours on that
well there is more than this issue ngl
when ever i try to enter the game it just pops up when you about to select the team,
called "Easy anti cheat" its wont let me enter the battle
That's odd, I have no idea why it happens
one week, where is the patch. fix the god damn game
mee too twin me tooo
the case of the panther's ammo is way longer, it does not fit
They already said that they'll release a hotfix this week
Which will probably target the most important issues
