mess-hall

[cyan pelican]

Yeah interesting to see how it plays.

[worthy charm]

Honestly... maybe take that out now

This scares me a bit

[mellow knoll]

They’re a step in the right direction. Still needs more.

[silk igloo]

Yeah, I did. Probably disliked it then, I dont remember, but regardless I think different now. Didn't have halftracks or SPAs then

[novel geyser]

redeploying is cheap yeah but I'd rather they do it in better ways that weird cooldowns

[mellow knoll]

It needs a much smaller range limit like real SPGs

[solar slate]

Should be open top when operating the gun

[mellow knoll]

And their name fixing

[worthy charm]

https://klipy.com/gifs/lucius-malfoy-draco-malfoy

[solar slate]

Unless you did make them into actual spgs

[silk igloo]

Just limiting redzone garris to the first 200m would go a long way

[main harness]

Being farmed in HQ by an spa is going to be the new meta

[heady hornet]

okay, now attack omaha allies fourth cap

[mellow knoll]

In that regard they should be the open top vehicles yeah. Like the Hummel, Priest etc

[main harness]

Which fourth cap? We are a battlefield rip off now. Conquest or nothing.

[mellow knoll]

I know. And I’ll say it another dozen times till it’s done xD

[worthy charm]

Open top ahh argument again

Im gonna cry

[main harness]

Why can't they just give up on this failed spa experiment...

[silk igloo]

I dont see the issue.

[hazy owl]

as I suggested before.. HQ arty should have limited range up to mid point and if team wants to use arty beyond that SPA sould be deployed.. in the exp branch settings it does not really make sense to use SPA.. it's expensive and time consuming

[solar slate]

Me, being a scholar and a gentleman, prefer to call them open back

[mellow knoll]

I’m not arguing with you about this again.

[worthy charm]

Im just saying

The only thing worse than SPAs as we have them, are open top SPAs

Though most here would agree we shouldnt have SPAs at all anyway...

[solar slate]

No, coz you make only the gun slots open

You can hunker inside and be impervious to small arms

[pseudo heath]

Arty gun can be built further forward. What of offensive mode. Do devs play the game at all???

[worthy charm]

What you mean is recon kills you and hides in your own SPA whilst you cant get him out

:}

[oak current]

Mmmh the HQ is ripe for harvesting.

[worthy charm]

SPAs your next stream? Surely that would be fun to watch

[solar slate]

No they can't go in. And you've got an OP nearby, if you're playing super safe you've also got a driver inside who can just drive away

[oak current]

I'll ride your SPA any day. - and thats not a euphemism, I sat atop your SPA during the testing

[worthy charm]

So you block people with a magic wall so they cant climb in?

[mellow knoll]

If the devs really don’t want to put in the work and do open top SPAs (which they were in the real war mind you) then they shouldn’t exist in the game. Period.

Just make the current ones SPGs (which it seems like they’re sort of doing which is a good start) and keep arty for Commander abilities. Boom, problem solved.

[tired spear]

yall what if
we had half-tracks that can be used as accual infantry transport/support
AND then we would have these "command" vehicles that would be the mobile garrison that we already have?

[mellow knoll]

I made this a suggestion a year ago

[solar slate]

I thought you mean occupy the slots not physically climb the vehicle. Sure they can climb on but it's not like they become invincible

[mellow knoll]

https://discord.com/channels/316459644476456962/1351989597630103727

If you want to see it. Put a lot of effort into that one.

[worthy charm]

That falls into the same categorie as bar and FG bipods.
Fun but not that usefull

[solar slate]

Yeah they're a weird halfway implementation rn

[tired spear]

this really is the only thing that is bugging me
like let me drive into battle in a sweet sdkfz.251

[heady hornet]

I mean, they do this weekend. 😄

[worthy charm]

Sure, but its just the old recon arty loop slightly different.

[hazy owl]

the economics of this game makes this impossible as Half-Track costs 300 fuel whereas Medium Tank costs 200.. HF can be easily destroyed and there is rarely any fuel left for HF.. on top of that anyone can drive it and blueberries just looooove to spawn on HF and take it for a ride

[main harness]

Suggestion. Give the arty crews 4 rockets each just to help defend against the recon tanks that attack them.

(4 rockets because 1 will randomly ric or non pen, 1 will have a hit reg issue and 2 more so they can miss without feeling bad.)

[mellow knoll]

If it was a default spawn and it had its armor buffed this wouldn’t be an issue

[solar slate]

The point is that the arty is not in the HQ and the nearby spawn can be taken out. So, problem solved

[main harness]

On their overtime rate

[solar slate]

(not counting the hq arty they did keep..)

[worthy charm]

ITS THE SAME PROBLEM

The only thing solving it would be getting rid of it

Which they should have done years ago

[solar slate]

No? The problem was that you have to move to far from the action and spawn camp an indestructible spawn

[worthy charm]

Ok so what do you do after killing the crew assuming the gunner is dead?
Jump out or stay inside?

[heady hornet]

OGT could do the funny thing, and get the dev team on board for their sunday match. Just put them in meatgrind. It's gonna be fine.

[worthy charm]

The driver has to either drive back into HQ (where you will spamkill his mates from inside the SPA) or he drives you to a garrision which is even worse

[tired spear]

what if we assigned vics
like the commander spawns a tank only for a certain squad
with half-tracks it would get tricky tho

[worthy charm]

It doesnt work...

Not that SPAs belong to the frontline even

[pseudo heath]

Poor events and comp orga having to deal with crazy decisions outtta no where

[solar slate]

You as in the driver who's safe inside? You ask your team for help, or try to kill him with your squad when they respawn from the OP

[worthy charm]

Dude randoms cant even kill a someone on a tank without cover

And getting close to your OP comes with the same issue as the garrision

[solar slate]

I think you're making up a problem by now

[worthy charm]

Im talking about the same thing the whole time

[solar slate]

There's satisfying counterplay happening for both sides the entire time

[worthy charm]

Something else would be that recon and light tanks would kill you even easier...

Even the luchs could kill a for example priest

[mellow knoll]

That's why they were positioned behind the front lines and not inside them xD

[oak current]

the church would be shocked

[worthy charm]

Wallah kirchensteuer would be increased

But you bavarians already pay less :{

[oak current]

Damn you lynx, taking nomnom bites out of the local priest

[oak current]

wut?

[hazy owl]

I believe it is not possible with the way the game is programmed

[heady hornet]

just leave the church, and you dont care about that anymore.

[solar slate]

As opposed to now, what, it's gotta be some lone guy with rockets or satchel who sneaks up and instakills the whole thing, or a recon tank.. And they don't play all too well as arty or direct fire guns because they've landed in this awkward middle ground

[worthy charm]

Its only 8% in bayern and baden-würtenberg, whilst its 9% everywhere else

[hazy owl]

so since Static Arty can be moved forward, are we going to see Static Arty Wars? 😄

[finite berry]

Okay, can someone summarise for me how good the arty changes are?

Don't understand the artillery system well enough to understand the dev blog properly

[hazy owl]

the arty is still in the game so not really

[worthy charm]

Arty changes are still bad
SPA changes are good

Flare changes are supreme

[tired spear]

mortar sub-class for the arty squads?
i think it would go hard

[solar slate]

I didn't notice flare changes, please tell me they're now only resupplied on timer

[hazy owl]

Are they so afraid of removing HQ Arty so they don't upset the handful of people who plays them?

[solar slate]

Yes

[hazy owl]

that's what it suggests just like a supply box

[finite berry]

*Mortar instead of the arty

[mellow knoll]

Well let's see.

1. Arty can now resupply from a nearby munitions node.
2. Static Artillery can be built anywhere in the first two sectors of their teams side of the map.
3. Static Artillery can't shoot through walls.
4. SPAs have been made more into SPGs, just with semi-indirect fire (which is a semi positive I suppose)
5. Artillery crews by default now wear standard Infantry uniforms. A lot better.

[solar slate]

Awesome, rockets next please

[hazy owl]

probably lots of women involved in the game 😄

[solar slate]

Kek you might be hitting too close to home

[mellow knoll]

Welcome to modern society. Everyone acts like women even when they're not.

[hazy owl]

Oh no I am very aware of the state 😄

[worthy charm]

Not like those people arent already mad

[hazy owl]

I mean yeah they made it less fun for a single arty player.. he cannot start swapping seats while reloading and have to beg commander for resupply 😄

[mellow knoll]

@finite berry Forgot to include number 5

[abstract lichen]

(apart from the model) is there any difference between the M1A1 and M1928 (horizontal and vertical grip) Thompsons?

[analog apex]

so... I read the arty will be buildable just in the 2 first lines... yeah that's better than all blue/neutral territory

still, should be the mortars, not arty guns

now the arty will be possible to be placed even as little as 500m of each other (I mean enemy arty and friendly arty)

doesn't make any sense of having arty guns and not the mortars

nor historical, nor logical

I like what they did with the effect of ammo node on the arty, however there should be more effects and not just to the arty, for all the nodes - get them useful on the frontline

the same as the ammo node will now be refilling slowly the artillery shells,** the manpower nodes** could the same way be refilling the local tickets stored inside the spawnpoints

[sick bramble]

Find someone to do that first

build nodes with garry

[hazy owl]

I think one set of nodes would be enough no need for 3 sets.. reduce the ability to build only one node per engineer so more people can farm XP

and finally make buildables build faster with less resources needed.. building a single level 3 barricade should not take 2 minutes or so

[past veldt]

Nodes need to just be removed

They're never going to rework them into anything interesting, and right now they're just a chore

[hazy owl]

look at Over the top WWI building stuff can be actually fun and useful nobody builds schaize in HLL

but I guess they don't want to do that because having more entities on the map would crash the server 😄

[past vortex]

just like guns

[past vortex]

i hate them
had one sneek into my arty squad yesterday
went straight to the gun and stopped talking
kicked ofc, but he lived quite some time

[past veldt]

They're fairly crucial to an FPS though

[analog apex]

yes, "right now"
it doesn't have to be jsut a chore in the future though

[past vortex]

wdym future

[analog apex]

right 😄

[past veldt]

They're never reworking nodes to be interesting

[analog apex]

but see... they already did one thing for the ammo node for the arty

could be easily just a 1st step

[past veldt]

Even that isn't interesting

Oh we have nodes, I guess I'll just move my arty gun to be near the node

[analog apex]

nope, more like build arty gun 1st, then the node near it

[past veldt]

I rarely see games with an artillery gun built

So anyone who does build it is just going to build it near an existing node

[analog apex]

I however still fear the best arty position will stay the HQ - people will probably willingly accept possibility of being spawncamped for as long as they can respawn right next to the gun on a spawnpoint that can't be destroyed... a HQ spawnpoint.

[hazy owl]

So people are used to build nodes and now the arty squad cannot build it near them because there is a limit

[past veldt]

I mean, meta is still going to be placing the artillery gun and near your infinite 10s HQ spawn

[hallow shard]

We'll find a way to break it

[past veldt]

Irrelevant changes, because people in here write half thought ideas which would be good in a different game

[hallow shard]

Quarter thought out

Don't give them that much credit

[hazy owl]

and they also set flare gun cooldown so you cannot easily remove the HQ camping recon anymore 😄

[analog apex]

Also, with being able to build the arty in the two 1st lines... those forward arty will be able to reach enemy HQ to spawnkill... or?

[past veldt]

Rostering someone as chief node builder because the effect stacks each time you build the node or something

[past vortex]

WHAT

[hallow shard]

Can't wait for rotatating recon SL's

[past veldt]

Oh PLEASE let this be the case

Imagine utah beach but now the artillery just lands in your boat

[analog apex]

it likely is

[hazy owl]

simply forbid any squad placing spawn in the HQ sector unless the team is winning 4:1

[past veldt]

THE IMMERSION IS SO REAL

JUST LIKE MY GREAT GRANDPA FOUGHT

[hallow shard]

Omaha offensive gonna be lit

[hazy owl]

that's too much of annoyance nobody will be doing it all game unless you're German clan

[analog apex]

I am sure the T17 devs didn't think that far to prevent all those stupid situations, to make the system bulletproof. More like broken as F.

[hallow shard]

Gonna take 3 working days to get off that beach

[past veldt]

I can see the next HLL tiktok

THIS GAME IS SO REAL ARTILLERY HIT ME AS I CAME OUT THE WOMB

[hallow shard]

I was refering to the potential lunacy of comp vs pubs in this case

[analog apex]

There is nothing about changing the arty range in the devBrief, so we may assume they can rly reach enemy HQ spawn area.

[hazy owl]

yeah edit that does not apply to German clans

[past veldt]

Maybe they can win a real tournament this time 🫂

[past vortex]

more to espt

[hazy owl]

hmmm so just like in WoT you try to spot the arty so your arty can spam theirs 😄

[past veldt]

ESPT don't need to rotate their spotters when they're running Airbags on defence

[hallow shard]

One man defense. Rumor has it he's never lost a cap

[past vortex]

im sad they are killing the arty spotter role off :{

(its reasonable tho)

[heady hornet]

or the printer.

[past veldt]

Bro it's not ESP he just got a new monitor and did some aimlabs and no he can't record his gameplay his mum said it's not allowed in his house

[past vortex]

with the right HW you can still stream it tho :D

(no one will ever know)

[analog apex]

shame I won't be able to witness that s??tShow tomorrow... as usually I am gone for the Friday and most of Saturday 🥶

hopefully someone will make some stream or vid upload

[plush dome]

Hello. Im new at this game, so sorry if i said something not right, i just want someone to help me how play.
How i understand i need find 'divission' to play with them? Where i can find them?

[analog apex]

Divisions are just clans/communities. You don't need one to learn/play the game. But if you want to join some, feel free to browse : #1343090646168240199

[cosmic pilot]

TFW 105mm he is the same as magical casting fireball.

[frosty hamlet]

hello

I uppered my kiils to 20

[livid verge]

I lost the Game because the enemy invadet our point in the EXACT second we would've won

https://tenor.com/view/ishowspeed-speed-speed-meme-ishowspeed-meme-ishowspeed-silly-gif-14130407979057186488

Now we are loosing all points

[graceful verge]

Where do you send in applications?

[past veldt]

For what?

[graceful verge]

I got banned cus my team were a bunch of pussys that just cant take the truth

[past veldt]

I'm sure you're a really reasonable person

[graceful verge]

For abuse they said

[past veldt]

Did you get vote kicked

[graceful verge]

Banned for 1 hour

[past veldt]

You just change server and get on with it

Maybe don't be a 🔔🔚

[wintry thistle]

Pretty sure they wore the field gray panzer uniforms due to then being in the artillery arm
Like with the STUG crewmen

[real parrot]

I just made a enemy tank squad leave the game after we killed their heavy in their HQ, we were at 40m with the engine off like a prop and they didnt even notice and gave their as to us XD.

Then they respawned in the medium but since they didnt hop in waiting for us to go we just smoke and falled back, and as we fall back we hear an Stuka, the commander launched a Precision Strike to our old position and destroyed their own medium tank.

And then they spawned a medium tank to try hunt us in the other HQ but they didnt saw us and passed at our side and we got their engine again

Awesome hahaha

[cunning crystal]

where can i report a HLL official server admin abuse

its about HLL official server #5 where there is an admin teamkilling and calling explosions on players etc, unkickable and can type in red bubble tekst

[past veldt]

There are no admins on Official servers. Just sounds like there is a cheater on. Leave and go play on community servers

[cunning crystal]

but red chat is for admins right>?

he was in the game but not in the tab playerlist

in the end

[past veldt]

No idea what you mean by typing in red chat

but no, there are no admins on official servers

[keen glen]

peak hll experience

[oak current]

probably means Command-Chat, since the names are red.

[past veldt]

"type in red bubble"

No text chat for command chat

[oak current]

theres also no bubbles crit ^^

[cunning crystal]

it was like how a little blue is visible for teamchat

there was a little red visible yeah

yeah

[past vortex]

for gobbo that could be the end at some point tho :}

[slate canopy]

Play on community not official.

[sleek moth]

Divagree

[past vortex]

who is that diva and why do so many bring her up here

[slate canopy]

As for reporting on official: https://support.team17.com/hell-let-loose/en/articles/316972-reporting-a-player-on-hell-let-loose

[slate canopy]

Try with . At the beginning 😉

Keep in mind you agreed to the rules and if you break you can get in trouble 🙂

[cunning crystal]

community also has its problems

[slate canopy]

Don't have to deal with hackers in community, if you do it's barely and you can report them to the server owners.

[cunning crystal]

but people also report you

for toxic behavior

[slate canopy]

Are you saying and/or doing bad or mean things?

[cunning crystal]

while it is normal when someone gets you killed

a commander killing your team 3 times

[past vortex]

ofc, didnt you read his message before

[slate canopy]

Nah I am on my phone sooo don't always scroll up all the way

[past vortex]

oh wait that wasnt even him

[cunning crystal]

while not communicating

[slate canopy]

About to drive home from work

[past vortex]

sorry

[cunning crystal]

i got banned from PBS servers because i told people off for not building garrisons, a commander that didn't communicate. and friendly fire

[slate canopy]

Well TK will do that

[past vortex]

might have been the way you phrased it...

[slate canopy]

You shouldn't even if someone else started it

[cunning crystal]

i didn''t tk

the commander with abilities

and i got the ban for insulting him

[past vortex]

:}

[cunning crystal]

people on community servers are softer

[slate canopy]

Lmao maybe don't be toxic

[cunning crystal]

well if they are ignoring requests and not working as a team resulting in the enemy overrunning us easy

and then not changing after asking them to

i feel entiteled to call them what they are

[past vortex]

you can complain, but not in a unhinged way

[cunning crystal]

thats subjective

[past vortex]

they are entitled to not wanting you on their server then :}

[cunning crystal]

firstly perma ban is not the right response

[past vortex]

just a hint: you will miss out on almost all of the good servers that way

[cunning crystal]

nope

[past vortex]

k

[cunning crystal]

most decent people will listen to tips

[past vortex]

no one banned you for tips tho :D

[cunning crystal]

they banned me because i tell it as it is

i'm dutch

we tell you if you are being a ...........

i mourn for what people playing will become

[past vortex]

will happen on other servers too

[cunning crystal]

commander that doesn't communicate gets kicked by the team from official server

squad-leaders that don't place garrisons and ignore commander request and don't communicate get kicked from official server

[past vortex]

everyone gets kicked on official

[cunning crystal]

so many community games are lost because the 1 side does have teamwork and the other doesn't

[past vortex]

for any or no reason at all

[worthy charm]

I would kick myself on official servers

[elfin holly]

The life of playing any 50v50 tactical team type game lol

[raw crown]

Why the f**k are there NO OFFICIAL SERVERS like very time?

[cunning crystal]

people actively contributing nothing to the team should know they are a waste of space lol

[cunning crystal]

there are a few but way to few for what would be healthy

[elfin holly]

I think they know LOL but some are also new

[cunning crystal]

new players i don't have a problem with

[past vortex]

simple reason: no one actually wants to play official

[cunning crystal]

they should be open to hear tips

[raw crown]

But like literally why? There are around 6k people playing HLL at the moment. All the time I can see up to 3 servers if I see any because often there are none. All the time game has bugs like I'm senidng invite to a friend who dosen't receive it. Wtf is the problem? Are devs even caring about the game at this point?

[cunning crystal]

because they need to hide behind the !admin reports

[worthy charm]

Nobody play official server

for a reason

[past vortex]

yea totally, no one wants to have their game session ruined by people like you after all

[cunning crystal]

if you are wasting space in the server where someone who will actually benefit the team could be

good riddance if i could kick you

[raw crown]

But people can't even play offical servers if they don't show up. I literally have situations such as I can see and join a server which isn't seen by my friend

[elfin holly]

It depends on the scenario I think. New player nah they are trying to learn. Someone griefing? Yea kick them

[past vortex]

thats ok, you are the only one who cares :}

[worthy charm]

Playing on official server is choosing the worse experience

but if you guys like it...

[cunning crystal]

like your PFP you are most likely a princess who can't face the facts that you are playing badly. I have had that happen a few times when starting to play. but i listened to others and got better because of it

[past vortex]

did you hear that willes

he thinks you are a princess

[slate canopy]

Don't play on em lol

[raw crown]

I'm not liking it cuz we literally can't join them. But every time we join community servers we are kicked after 5 seconds

[cunning crystal]

you have people that still don't know that the game is about spawns

[worthy charm]

I wish I would be that good looking

[slate canopy]

Willles is a pretty princess 🥺

[raw crown]

What is wrong with this game, I don't get it

[elfin holly]

Yea

[past vortex]

in our hearts

[elfin holly]

It be like that, sometimes you get really good even matches and sometim3s you dont

[cunning crystal]

i've never seen an even match on community since its usually lower skill level on average

some community server for princesses that don't like it when someone tells them to shut it and listen for once should stille exist ofc. but more official servers need to be available to the normal person who wants to play this game like it was meant to be played

community servers are ruining the identity which is HLL

[past vortex]

gobbo is very creative with baits
he really remembers every day to drop some

[round breach]

Polish servers be pretty chill, even tho I don't speak polish

[cunning crystal]

true

had a commander that spoke english to me when he needed to adress me

but polish to the others

[slate canopy]

Never had issues with community servers, just individual players

[cunning crystal]

i have more a problem with admins on community servers

[past vortex]

oh, it does happen that admins have a bad day and some are special
but yea its rare

[round breach]

Im pretty new to the game so i can't say I have any problems with the community

[cunning crystal]

people are getting to soft

[round breach]

Other than some TK'ers I haven't encountered anything on that regard

[cunning crystal]

TK'ers you will find everywhere

[past vortex]

hahaha

[round breach]

and also some people complaining in chat but that's every game to ever game

[cunning crystal]

you have complaining and you have schifting blame

people blaming the commander while not building garries themselfs are one of those people protected by community server admins

[cunning crystal]

if you say something back they report you

while it was their negligence

[past vortex]

good thing

[cunning crystal]

this is maby something for you

meant to be a playlist lol

[slate canopy]

Videos in #hll-videos plz 😉

[elfin holly]

Idk maybe I guess, i just hop on to play and have fun idc if im winning or losing or if someone sucks at the game

[slate canopy]

Clearly you like to play a certain way. Let's keep the toxicity down in here.

[cunning crystal]

yeah but if you are playing squad-leader and the commander asks you to build a garrison close to where you are

you would build it?

[past vortex]

how is it fun to you when yor team fails hard?

[elfin holly]

I mean yea it sucks that im losing but I still get kills thrn just go into thr next match and hope for the best

Do what you can and do whatever your squad can and etc etc

[slate canopy]

Yes? If possible?

[elfin holly]

Don't get me wrong i like winning but if you only have fun if your team wins are you truly playing out of enjoyment or just because you wanna win.

[round breach]

I liek the funny headshot sounds

[past vortex]

nothing wrong with losing if the team tried

[slate canopy]

Agreed.

I have had great games but loss.

[elfin holly]

Agreed

[elfin holly]

I can agree with this yea lol. So far I havent had any full blown like blown out the water games

But still time for anything o guess lmao

[cunning crystal]

but thats the problem i have with community servers. a decent amount of times people don't try

[elfin holly]

What servers are you playing on? Almost all community servers ive played people are trying

I guess it also probably depends on the game mode too

Me personally I play only offensive

[past vortex]

this must be gobbo
no one ever thought official servers have a better player base

[cunning crystal]

not better playerbase, just a means to get leeches out of the match

[elfin holly]

I say we riot

[past veldt]

I suspect you're an awful player tbf

[cunning crystal]

i'm average

[past veldt]

Sheesh. That's low

🏳️‍🌈

You've got to show us the stats line to judge

[cunning crystal]

sooo

what an opinion

so your understanding of the game is that not building garrisons is the new meta>?

[past veldt]

I play commander most of the time

[cunning crystal]

ill keep that in mind if i see you in a match sometime. ill know to not even try to have a good game since you will call airstrafes on friendly troops

[past veldt]

Truth

Don't worry though, I only play community servers

[slate canopy]

All right you two. Let's move on.

[past veldt]

Eh, last time I played there I got kicked for winning in their training events

[cunning crystal]

its a team game

[past veldt]

Ain't no way my guy is criticising people

[cunning crystal]

lol that you even think that matters tells more then words could

[abstract lichen]

imma just interject and say wr in a 50v50 game is never affected by a single person

[cunning crystal]

do you know that winrate isn't a single guys performance? lol

[abstract lichen]

in like enlisted maybe sure, but not hll

[slate canopy]

Okay do I have to give out formal warnings?

Move into a new topic.

[abstract lichen]

best gun in game?

[past veldt]

Deleting the guys win rate is crazy

[slate canopy]

If you wanna be toxic in here, take it else where.

[slate canopy]

You didn't need to do that nor pester the guy.

[cunning crystal]

i do thank you for showing us you know nothing about the game by thinking winrate is an solid comeback

[past veldt]

My alt account has a WR of 74% btw. So not even playing with friends, just solo, usually commander. It's absolutely possible to ensure you win more

[cunning crystal]

m1 garand

[abstract lichen]

i need to use that more often

recently i've just been using smg's to try get assaulter levelled up

[past veldt]

One player can do a couple chores per game and they'll boost up their WR pretty quick

Like learning a couple basic garrison networks for a map will get you some wins pretty easily

[cunning crystal]

its just simple aim with that gun

[cunning crystal]

in cities yeah

[abstract lichen]

i heard its a one shot even to legs right?

[past veldt]

One shot from knee to head up to 200m, including arms and hands

[cunning crystal]

but even in close range 1 shot from the grand or any other standart privaat weapon will kill faster

[cunning crystal]

funny how you came around to supporting my point.

[past veldt]

Nah, you're still bad

[abstract lichen]

semi-autos are prolly the best weapons in the game

[cunning crystal]

german assault rifle is good

[abstract lichen]

stg44 yeah

i wonder if the BAR is any good, need to get around to using it again

[cunning crystal]

don't under estimate the suppression effect

[past veldt]

It's the same damage as STG

[cunning crystal]

i never used the BAR but not a lot of people do

[past veldt]

Just different visual recoil and smaller magazine

[past veldt]

Suppression doesn't change where you aim btw. Bullet still comes from the middle of the screen when ADS, and the middle of the screen doesn't move when suppressed

[cunning crystal]

...

unexperienced player alert lol

[past veldt]

You see some people try to fight suppression, but you're best just ignoring it

[abstract lichen]

it makes if damn hard to see tho

blurry screen

[past veldt]

Yeah for sure, but honestly if you're being suppressed from a distance then they're just missing so ignore them. If it's up close, just aim as normal and you'll be fine

[past vortex]

i really wonder how badly gobbo must be off irl

[abstract lichen]

true, but a lot of encounters take place at range

so i'd say suppression is pretty effective

[cunning crystal]

supression is very handy to use

most good players also just spam some bullets in the direction of the enemy to supress them

and give teammates an easier way to relocate or attack

[past veldt]

I mean, the actually good players mostly just hit the enemy and then they can't shoot back at all

[abstract lichen]

i hate being on the other end of this

[past veldt]

MGs can spray a bit if they fancy, but like, otherwise you're always better just actually hitting the target

[cunning crystal]

it works well on people like critical sinds they underestimate it and keep their head poked out

easy kill

[past veldt]

I'd post your stats again but apparently that's not allowed

[cunning crystal]

you should play this game called csgo

there stats are actually an indicator of skill

you would feel right at home

😘

[past veldt]

CSGO? You're a couple years out of date mate

It's okay, maybe you can get through a game without being kicked soon 🫂

[cunning crystal]

and i hope for you you will watch some soulsnipers video's soon and start learning about the game

[past veldt]

Oh mate

[cunning crystal]

they are some good class video's

[past veldt]

If that's the level you think is good

[cunning crystal]

and some general knowledge ones

you will benefit from that

[past veldt]

I wouldn't even let him in my squad, let alone learn something

[real parrot]

KD is actually important to determine good players

In competitive that is

Casual games doesn't even counts

For any important stat

[abstract lichen]

is there any difference (apart from the model) between M1A1 and M1928 Thompsons? (in HLL)

[real parrot]

I believe one has less recoil, but not take me to seriously on that

[real parrot]

I don't let anyone with less than level 80 and more than 150 ping on my squad

[past vortex]

this reminds me how aweful the scoreboard is

[stoic garnet]

@cunning crystal quit pretending to know what you are talking about, the things you send contradict it and it’s pretty funny

@past veldt quit being so pretentious, battaraofs advice is fine for new players and soul snipers videos are a good introduction

Everyone sucks ok

Hello chat!

[slate canopy]

Hello hello

[vivid thorn]

why flare cooldown 🙁

[cosmic pilot]

So recon to get off their redeploy addiction

[vivid thorn]

but i like my flares

[cosmic pilot]

The first step is admitting you need help

[vivid thorn]

the first step of getting that help is removing flare cooldown

[cosmic pilot]

Would you rather redeploy or shoot people

[vivid thorn]

shoot people

after redeploying

[cosmic pilot]

AHA

[vivid thorn]

or how about they give us a cooldown but give recon an extra flare 😋

[cosmic pilot]

Now you're just double dipping

[vivid thorn]

cant let that juicy reload animation go to waste 🙁

[real parrot]

Making the flare a skill rather than a weapon seems like a good thing to me tbh

I suppose the personal node also reduces its cooldown to half

[covert elbow]

Because it’s disgustingly OP and should just be reworked so it doesn’t spot people

Litteraly seen artillery squads be locked and the officer just spam flares at the objective

[analog apex]

Then that's gotta be on you because I the same as vast majority of peeps don't have a problem with them 🫤 , the rest are usually... the problematic sort who usually deserved the punishment and a veeeery small percentage who got punished by mistake or unjustly after a false report.

Like... I know that in pubs regardless if official or community there are many specific players who qualify as a "waste of playerSlots", but even then - you can't do anything about it. If you want to complain, say it just for yourself but not in the comms. If there is comm-less CMD who doesn't respond, report him to the admins.

And arguing with the admins is never a good idea unless you have a solid counterEvidence against the accusers against you. But even then, it's possible to deliver it in a civil way so they won't have a reason to take an action against you.

[vivid thorn]

Then why have it

[analog apex]

Because one day, the devs woke up with a feeling it would be a good idea. They were obviously wrong as they implemented it even worse.

[covert elbow]

I’d much rather it work like the OP for artillery squads. Have it affect artillery radius to be more effective and turn down the lights on night maps to make it a light source

Its so out of place in HLL as is it makes no sense

[analog apex]

Yeah, and zero reason for having them on the daytime maps.

[honest pecan]

No, flares are definitely a cool mechanic to have in general

I normally prefer the milsim-y aspects of HLL over the arcade-y ones but flares are a good gimmick

[analog apex]

There are no milsimmy aspects in HLL.

Hardcore? Maybe. But definitely not milsimmy.

[honest pecan]

HLL is an arcade milsim

[analog apex]

It's not arcade either. More like casual. I call it a hardcore shooter with strong casual elements... or a casual oriented shooter with a few hardcore elements.

There is a difference between arcade and casual, as well as milsim vs hardcore. (although in case of flares it rly is a pretty arcade mechanics)

Actually when looking at it being able to kill with 1 shot is probably the only real hardcore element in it that matters. If it was an arcade, we would be bullet sponges. If it was milsim, the player damage model would be deeper, with various effects after being hit and to which part of the body. And some deeper medical system to heal. ...just an example. The same kind of logic goes to the tanks.

[zealous linden]

Fr casual players are like playing battlefield tho

And cod only ppl who have a little freaky sexual energy playing hll

You feel me? @analog apex

[analog apex]

Battlefield/CoD is casual AND arcade.

[covert elbow]

That doesn’t exist

Those definitions completely counter intuitive of eachother

[honest pecan]

You cannot handle nuance

[arctic rampart]

There is no nuance bimbo, it's like saying my math formula is positive negative, like tf?

[pine ember]

He is right though

HLL is placed between Hardcore Games and casual Games

[keen glen]

😭🙏🫰

[pine ember]

It’s basically a Hardcore game with strong casual Elements

[pine ember]

I still love your pfp

Do you know who that is?

[keen glen]

You expect someone else to defend your position

[arctic rampart]

Brotha. I've been in this discord for 5 more years than you have. I'm not going to argue about some generic topic at 10 in the morning.
Every topic this channels seen in the past 4 months at least has been recycled time after time.
Arguing with some dude that has anime games labeled as his favorite isn't a morning activity I'll participate in 🥀

[honest pecan]

A personal attack isn't an argument btw

"muh but I'm not arguing" so you're just presenting yourself as an ignorant

[zealous linden]

Have I ever been normal?

[covert elbow]

There’s no nuance to the situation. A game is very solidly a MilSim or Arcade

Games can have casual or hardcore elements, but they can’t be arcade and MilSim

HLL is an arcade shooter with hardcore elements for sure

Your just didn’t use the label right

[honest pecan]

I did

[covert elbow]

You didn’t

[honest pecan]

I've seen both Squad and Enlisted described as hardcore shooters that label is just pointless

[covert elbow]

Do

Do you understand what a hardcore shooter is?

[honest pecan]

Why are you antagonistic lol

[covert elbow]

???

I just said you used a label incorrectly (which you did) and corrected you

[honest pecan]

You're calling me stupid and now you're gonna act smug and pretend you're not blah blah

guys

I NEED advice on how to actually see people, pls somebody help me 🙏

Genuinely cannot understand how many people get like 500+ combat score (ive never gone past like 150)

[silk igloo]

You often hear them first. If it's a friendly weapon firing, he's shooting at an enemy. If it's an enemy weapon, well, you just found an enemy. Every small-arm has a distinct sound. If you stay near the big and noisy group of blueberries, you might as write "glass us from orbit" on your forehead

[cunning crystal]

best thing is to slow down

just stand still somewhere and watch for movement

almost all long range spots i have is by seeing some pixels moving

taking your time to scan the horizon will get you more kills and makes you live longer

[cunning crystal]

you also want to be with teammates since what he said. if your teammate gets shot you can get an indication from where he was shot

[mint lotus]

I'm not sure how you play but in my style I've had better luck with a kinda mix of both listening and watching for people like these two guys have said

[cunning crystal]

your best friend for finding a pesty guy sniping you, is a dead friend with mic

[mint lotus]

Yess

Teamwork makes the dream work

[silk igloo]

Yeah, be with your squad, but not with blueberries. That's up to the officers and their OPs though, grunts cant help it if they place all their OPs next to each other. imo they should be separated by at least 100m, sometimes 200m or even 300m is good as long as the gap between is covered, like some valley on El Alamein

[cunning crystal]

also jsut assume an enemy can be everywhere

never think you are safe

[mint lotus]

Yeah people can be pretty sneaky no matter what you do there might be someone waiting or watching

[mighty pebble]

Is there going to be a separate discord for hllv or will it be mixed into this one?

But at least i know what Im seeing isnt unique to me, i just dont have the ability to shoot pixels yet it seems

And yeah im still used to moving at faster paces so I guess you're right about slowing down

[robust tapir]

No way there's ever enough coordination for that OP placement lmao

[cunning crystal]

if your team is smart with their placement OP's and garrisons can be used like an UAV rader detection system

you can see from which way enemies are attacking the point from the spawns going red

@real parrot i wondered with resource nodes reducing the cooldowns of boxes, do people place nodes closer to the frontline in competetive to make more use of the cooldown reduction or do they still place them safer at the backlines?

[worthy charm]

They are being build in HQ and then left alone

[frosty hamlet]

Most leagues forbid destroying nodes, so they are buiilt in the HQ in the first min of the game

[vale garnet]

box cooldown also doesnt matter you just rotate players dropping

[cunning crystal]

Seriously? Would think that it would only be protecting by a rule that you can't camp them

[misty cove]

im getting hll soon af

No, there's no coordination, just simple guidelines that every officer should follow.

Well that is a shame that both experimental servers crashed 😄

[honest pecan]

Idk

[azure heath]

then why bother answering

[hazy owl]

Btw when the flare is on the cooldown now, I was thinking that larger rework of the cooldown mechanic could be done. For example supply boxes could be resupplied from supply crates or drops as long as there is at least 50 in there... the flare gun should be able to resupply from explosive box as well otherwise it's on a cooldown..

[keen glen]

having garisons around points and for counter flanks is crucial

nobody built any but it probably should

[fluid pawn]

Flare cooldown is currently unaffected by any nodes

it's on a flat 5 min cooldown

[fluid pawn]

that said, if you have any ideas around what nodes could affect it let us know!

[covert elbow]

Why not remove its spotting capabilities and just have it increase artillery accuracy + light up the area?

Then we wouldn’t need a long cooldown (maybe)

[arctic rampart]

Ain't no world in which we building nodes on the front line

[pine ember]

So we just got mortars without getting mortars?

[real parrot]

I just got a new Mouse mat, I wouldn't think a think so small could be so noticeable

[abstract lichen]

i used to just use a piece of paper as a mouse pad lol

until like, today

[real parrot]

Damn, mine was literally falling to pieces, I got one that costs like 18 since I'm upgrading my setup anyways, I didn't expect for it to be like, that comfy

[covert elbow]

Apparently someone asked when mortars would be in HLL and Ben said “wait for Vietnam” so….

[arctic rampart]

I had a mousepad for like 2 years, but ended up going back to playing straight on the table. Didn't see any noticable gain except a thing that gets dirty and needs cleaning

[lucid gazelle]

mod tools?

[pine ember]

That’s Not understandable. I know how a Business works, they are now in the cash cow phase where the product just needs to sell but doesn’t change much anymore before it will be abandoned, but people asked for mortars for years

It was even on the old roadmap

[past veldt]

If the mousepad you're using is terrible, sure, but a nice mousepad makes an insane amount of difference

[arctic rampart]

Difference in what?

Cause fps wise didn't matter for shet. A complete placebo unless you're playing on some rough af table

[past veldt]

A difference in how the mouse moves, and usually more importantly, how it stops

[austere ivy]

1. If your Squad Lead gives you any orders please listen to them, especially if it's fall back and defend.
2. This game is punishing in the fact you typically die within 1 shot, try not to W key run everywhere. If you're in an area with known enemies keep your head on a swivel.
3. If you take engineer please make nodes your top priority at the start of match, if you notice mid match that your team is missing 1 of the 3 sets and you haven't built nodes yet, build them. Your commander will love you.
4. Your K/D ratio doesn't matter. Redeploying can mean a win or a loss.
5. Communicate, even if you don't have a mic there is text chat for the team and squad. Communicate the best you can.

Those are the basic ones I can think of at the moment. I would also suggest watching videos on YouTube. SoulSniper makes great guides. This game has a learning curve, but once you learn the game it's pretty fun. Always ask if you don't know, hopefully your squadmates will help you. This game community can be helpful at times, but there are some pretty toxic people at times.

[cosmic pilot]

not everyone uses 3ft x 3ft worth of space to move their arm to aim

[past veldt]

Some of the mouse pads will give you a load of friction which naturally stops the mouse, allowing for slightly cleaner movements. Glass ones are the opposite and are super smooth to move around on. To say mousepads make no difference is crazy tbh, but if you're using an office mouse and a table thinking it's fine, then i guess you're not likely to notice 😄

[past veldt]

Me neither. My mouse pad is vertical to allow it fit onto my desk 😄

You can get small high quality mousepads anyway.

[arctic rampart]

I hope you understood that "no difference" means "no noticeable difference for the VAST majority of users".
Ofc there's a noticeable feel difference, but unless you're actually one of 'em folks that sit around and "train" their aim in like Kovaaks following Aimer7's guides or something, chances are it's not going to be noticeable to a point where it'll change your game.
Basic things such as just getting a mouse that fits your palm or simply having a heavier or lighter mouse are going to be noticeable things for a everyday user.

[past veldt]

And if you can notice a heavier or lighter mouse, you'll notice the mousepad working for or against you. If you're someone sitting down to play an FPS, you'll be spending enough time with your mouse to notice the difference between the textures. The difference between one mousepad and another similar one... sure, they're not going to feel it, but they'll absolutely notice the difference between their wooden desk and a mousepad

I work with a 65yr old guy who can barely use his phone. He brings a mousepad to work because he doesn't like the feel of it on the desk 😄

[devout monolith]

Wait whaaat

[slate canopy]

Share in #hll-videos please! 🙂

[rocky fable]

ahhhhh there it was

mb

[slate canopy]

Thanks

[devout monolith]

Is anyone trying to play

[steel jetty]

no

[robust python]

.

[heady pivot]

Does anybody have a particular role they dislike playing more than any other? And why? For me it’s gotta be machine gunner, I am absolute buns at setting up a good vantage point for machine gun fire

[slate canopy]

I'd agree. I never find a good spot 😅

[heady pivot]

The moment I pull the trigger I get a dinged 😭

[ionic tundra]

whenever i die, i get up to 130 fps as opposed of 90 fps on my laptop. Anyone know why that is?

[arctic rampart]

Like in the menu or when simply knocked out so to say? @ionic tundra

[ionic tundra]

knocked out

im hoping theyll optimize the game more so when im actually up i can get higher fps

it doesnt matter on my desktop but my laptop only has a 4070

[arctic rampart]

My guess would be that since the camera is pointing up in the sky it is reducing the amount of things that it needs to render (due to the direction you're facing) and/or reducing the models LOD thus increasing your fps

[ionic tundra]

interesting, that would make sense

[rare dirge]

Made the mistake of thinking I'll just join a random server since the one I normally play on was dead.
Just a tiny bit of racism. 🤏

Would be wonderful if PC HLL had just normal game servers like console. Where you just play the game 😅

[arctic rampart]

So you're implying that people in pc hll servers don't just play the game?

[past veldt]

You think playing on unmoderated servers will have less racism?

[rare dirge]

I'm stating that having what's essentially the "start the game" option in the menu open a server list full of ques and garbage servers instead of having it load you into a game like it does on console makes the PC experience horrible.

[arctic rampart]

What makes a server a garbage server from the server browser?

[rare dirge]

Real easy fix; automoderate text chats in PC servers hosted by the company (If the option to 'start' the game was the same as console)

[past veldt]

They're never going to do that

And then you've still got VC anyway

[arctic rampart]

Exactly... I mean I don't know of a single game ever with perfect moderation

The only closest ones are, usually are just community ran servers with active admins, which has like nothing to do with the game, but the community and people within it

[past veldt]

In my house, monopoly has zero racism. Not sure about yours

[arctic rampart]

We just don't have monopoly

🧠

[rare dirge]

I had a good experience with the first server group I've been playing on. But they were dead tonight so I had to go on another to simply play the game.

I am new to HLL on PC, I've played a lot on Xbox. My first server group was fantastic, nice community. The second was literally just a text chat attempting to re-live black ops 1 like slurs are going out of style.

[past veldt]

Was it Mikey's?

Or Glows

[rare dirge]

I just don't understand why there cant be a server browser seperate from a set amount of 'official' game servers. PC people need to just stop being nerds.

[past veldt]

Because the official servers are just a worse experience...

[arctic rampart]

I don't get what's your problem with the server browser...
You can legit find whatever you want in there perfectly fine. And no matter if there's a browser or not, you're still going to meet idiots online. It's completely irrelevant of the server browser or game you're talking about

[past veldt]

Community servers usually have some admins for this stuff. You get less cheats. You get some custom features

[rare dirge]

Glows was the first I hopped on, actually have been having good experiences there. The one I was on tn was "Current Level: America First". In hind sight I should've maybe taken a sec but

[arctic rampart]

Glows and whatever else are NA servers iirc?

[rare dirge]

Yes

[arctic rampart]

Cause, I can't think of a single community on the EU side where stuff like this would fly.
Ofc, there are times of day when maybe admins aren't on and won't take your report within a milisecond, but overall, these communities are clean.
Like circle, exd, 82, pbs etc.

And I have a hard time thinking that on the NA side it would fly, since y'all even more butthurt about it usually.

But again, it's irrelevant of continent as well. Idiots are everywhere

[past veldt]

The US servers have a lot of 'but muh free speech '

Glows do a good job moderating it but seems to attract 40 N words a day

[rare dirge]

I nevber said get away with server browser. But just having a streamline "play the game" it tosses you into a game. Like it does on the official console servers. Would be fantastic for the people that don't want to deal with having to find a specific community to play within. The only reason not to do it when it's done on other platforms. From my point of view; is the company doesn't want to spend the money on the servers.

[arctic rampart]

But even if you want to go on official servers which have absolutely 0 moderation, you can still do it? And it's insanely easy via the server browser as well?

[rare dirge]

I've actually not seen anything too bad in text chat in glows. That's what I've been playing the past week since starting on PC. Granted I haven't been playing long.

[arctic rampart]

It's not like you're configuring your F18C in DCS World. It's a freaking server browser, they've been around since cs 1.6

[rare dirge]

Not hard to have basic automoderation. Which from my understanding the game kinds does already? Maybe? Or it may just be server specific settings.

[arctic rampart]

official servers have nothing. 0. NIL

[rare dirge]

Not a crazy concept to have a game start the game when you press 'play'. Been around since games have been invented.

[past veldt]

This game has survived this long solely due to the communities

[rare dirge]

Kinda wild imo but good to know

[arctic rampart]

I mean yeah, some form of quick match has been around in many games over the years, even the ones that have community ran servers.
But your chances of getting in a decent, moderated community server will be even less than if you were to choose it on the server browser.

Cause you're adding randomness to it.

Instead if you pick a name, play on it, if it's bad, leave it.
And if it's good, you can favourite it, check it in your history tab, remember the name or whatever else.

And then you always come back to the same place that you enjoy.

If the issue is the server being low pop during the day or whatever. Then just find multiple servers such as that one.

Like I go from circle to exd, to 82 to pbs. Whatever's full I can go play on and have fun.
Then you can sort it down even smaller depending on what servers have what map rotations, or maybe have votemap plugins or other commands you like.

For example, I like to play on Circle cause I get infinite free vip due to good performance each match.

[rare dirge]

My whole beef is when I finally get my daughter to bed on a Friday night at 8:30pm I need to sit around in 7 different queues to get into a game I paid money to play.

[rare dirge]

I haven't experimented too much with servers, as I said. Glows was the first one I hoped on, had a good exprience. Been playing it for almost 2 weeks now. They had some server issues, servers ended up being dead I tried ONE other server. Was absolute doggy.

[past veldt]

You don't though

[arctic rampart]

If you have any ball knowledge, you might know of a old-ish game called Battlefield Heroes.
It ONLY had quick-match.
Every time you pressed it, you were just #pray-ing that you'd get in a good server.

The game had 3 distinct classes, but 1 was severly more overpowered if played properly.
Some servers had plugins that straight up kicked you, if 1 of the classes was over a certain amount.

So imagine that. You press quick match, it finds a server, you load in, get a instant kick and have to re-do that process.

[rare dirge]

When I search servers based off ping for me; I do.

The first 20 are 0/100

[past veldt]

I don't remember the last time I joined a server with a 6 person queue

Use the filters?

[arctic rampart]

I have even played on NA servers sometimes. When I wanted to play in the morning. Ping was around 170, but didn't stop me from top scoring at all.

[past veldt]

You can set a minimum player count to say, 60, and then sort by ping

[rare dirge]

Ima peep it quick bc im curious

[arctic rampart]

So maybe if the NA communites are full (which I have no clue of honestly) check EU servers as well?

[past veldt]

And this is probably the absolute worst time of day too. So any other time it'll be better than what you see

[rare dirge]

Kinda sorta a bad situation but Im using my computer on Wifi in a basement suite so. Could also be a factor

[past veldt]

EU isn't awake. NA is going to bed

[rare dirge]

I wouldn't normally be on RN, it's 2am for me lol

[rare dirge]

Ye

[arctic rampart]

I went to battlemetrics to check the US servers and I see one that had "Employed gamers only" in the name pepega

[rare dirge]

Did this, and the first server with no que is the one that may as well be branded as a nazi rp server. Then there's one with no que and the next 4 have full queues. And the servers after those are getting into 200+ms

[past veldt]

Does mean you've got an option that isn't the nazi RP server though. As I said, it's the worst time of the day to try it

I honestly don't think I've queued for a server in like 3 or 4 years though

Maybe I've joined one with like 1 or 2 in the queue

[rare dirge]

Mhm, I'll peep it again tomorrow once I'm not watching the little one. I didn't realize you could sort off a min player count as well.

[past veldt]

It's a shame they didn't do a range

I'll usually filter out some maps I don't enjoy as well

[rare dirge]

At least it's something, I've been sorting off ping and finding the first one(s) that aren't completely dead..

[edgy pier]

Guys, I'm not sure, but are paratroopers planned for future updates?

[finite berry]

No

At least not with actual paradrops

[pine ember]

There Are already multiple Para uniforms

[terse river]

i definitely don't see it in the future

[pine ember]

They wont be coming, that’s confirmed

I mean on what Maps except maybe SMdM and SME would a Jump be historically accurate? There are Maps where paras fought in but they never landed there

The Fallschirmjäger wouldn’t Jump at all

[finite berry]

Since when do they care about historical accuracy :D

[oak current]

skybox is very low, your plane-to-ground-time would be 0-3 seconds on some maps

[pine ember]

That’s the thing, barely

[finite berry]

Nah, it was more of a joke

They are not that historically inaccurate that they'd just spam paradrop layers everywhere

[pine ember]

I would hope so

[arctic rampart]

How much fuel did you get back when you dismantle leftovers of destroyed vehicles? Was it like set amounts or like % of veh cost?

[cosmic pilot]

I think it was either flat rate or flat 10%

[hazy shadow]

Air head is technically paratroopers

[edgy pier]

Yeah, but no cool deployment

[hazy shadow]

ya

[haughty geode]

Unpopular opinion but remove airheads

[livid verge]

stupid FPS drops

:/

[jade heron]

hi

[haughty geode]

Hello

[rare dirge]

Remagen: 🥹

[haughty geode]

That map gets more crossings anyways so

[arctic rampart]

We still have to see properly how it plays out

If the crying about the bridges is warranted or not

[past vortex]

10% imo
gives no score for the salvager tho
always fuel, even for spas

(the wreck is often more valueable as cover)

[haughty geode]

Its so funny destroying the wrecks that are used as cover by blueberries in that moment

They often dont even understand what happened, even after they ate a 30-06

[frosty hamlet]

what's yalls average kills In a hll game

[analog apex]

Just returned and watching the yesterday's stream... so the answer to the question if the mortars are coming, the answer was "they are coming in HLL: Vietnam" ... seriously? 😡 We don't care about HLL:V, we care about HLL1 here.

[novel geyser]

5 billion

[novel geyser]

I certainly wasnt happy with that answer

[finite berry]

0

[analog apex]

1.3 kills per minute in average... so every minute in a match at least one kill (AVG)

[novel geyser]

100% accuracy tho

[pine ember]

30 to 40

[pine ember]

Where did you watch that

[analog apex]

hllrecords

https://hllrecords.com/profiles/76561198809348696

I "love" how Ben was hit by the high ping spike bug during the playTest match during his playtest stream.

They should honestly make it a priority fix as well, because it usually happens to half of the server's population and if the server has set pingLimit, it gets those players kicked for high ping.

[frosty hamlet]

nice

mines currently 15

[analog apex]

https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2721331190

sry mistook the question topic

[nova pivot]

In pubs 60 in comp 100

[analog apex]

I think you meant it vice versa maybe?

beecause if you would get 100 in a comp, you would be bound to get much more in the pubs

[nova pivot]

Nope

I meant that

[novel geyser]

in pub 5 gorillion
in comp... I dont play comp...

[analog apex]

it's not how it usually works though

[nova pivot]

Pubs are much shorter and if your SL isn't competent you may have no op most of the time

[frosty hamlet]

damn

[analog apex]

true, but still... there are not that many that short matches

[frosty hamlet]

I only started playing a week ago after having the game for months

and I only average 14

[slate bone]

Yo chat I love this game but need more advanced tips for being a medic

[nova pivot]

I only play comp now because the game is sht and when I play pubs I don't get to play long games

[analog apex]

anyway, that's why telling KPM (kills per minute) instead of a killCount is much more accurate stat in this case

[nova pivot]

I'll check my kpm

[analog apex]

oh wait you are a PS5 player... I don't think you have any stats saved anywhere

I believe the hllstats page is for the PCs only

[nova pivot]

We have

[analog apex]

rly

I stand corrected then

[nova pivot]

I have 0,73 but that is counting all my games since I started as I am not playing much lately i don't get it higher

[nova pivot]

Yes

I'll show you

https://www.hllrecords.com/profiles/d92de39198449e5f83dc730839cdbe3b

@analog apex

[analog apex]

aaah, right... I was searching for you under your other name

that's why I didn't find you

but your KPM graph is going upwards, so you are improwing, nice 🙂

I have no idea what my KPM would be in a comp match as I haven't played any in about 2 years now.

[nova pivot]

Is just that I don't play enough, I play only one game a week

Maybe 2

If you see my last games they are +70 kills comp games with 20 mins pubs between them

[analog apex]

yeah I see

[abstract lichen]

like -50

nah jk prolly 10-30 (i think idk)

[worthy charm]

Floppa kills then all

[worthy charm]

Schödingers accuracy

[pine ember]

Thank you Sam

[pine ember]

Good

It also often depends on the class, I had my highest kill game as a tanker, and after that sniper and assault

If you play something like officer or support you might not achieve those numbers because you have more important tasks than killing

I can only really enjoy a game as long as it provides the experience I am looking for

And HLL has lost that

[heady pivot]

Where is the stats page?

[past veldt]

HLLrecords.com

[heady pivot]

Thank you

[analog apex]

It also often depends on the class
yeah ☝️ , usually when I play Spotter and the enemy arty is not active, I just spend the time searching for the nodes and garrisons, usually ending up with little kills, but pretty much of Combat score

[cunning crystal]

how is the game not able to ban that AKAME guy?

[analog apex]

the "game" can't ban anyone, only the admins can. And the admins are only on the community-hosted servers (official servers are not adminned by anybody), usually can act only upon a report.

[cunning crystal]

why no anticheat?

[analog apex]

there is, but that one is pretty useless from what I gathered throughout the HLL history

[cunning crystal]

...

[covert elbow]

“HLL’s anticheat? It’s called swapping servers”

[cunning crystal]

pretty stupid to not have a functioning anticheat

its not like this guy hides it at all

[covert elbow]

Gamer this GAME doesn’t function half the time

How do you expect them to have AC

[cunning crystal]

even tf2'shitty anti cheat would have detected this guy lol

[analog apex]

if you see a cheater, you need to report him to the admins of the server you are playing at, and ofc. avoid the official servers as they aren't moderated by anybody

a lot of the newcomer's cheat accusations are however usually false accusations, so make sure you will deliver some evidence unless it's obvious/possible by other means (other players' testimonies / admins right in the server...)

[cunning crystal]

everyone know akame

[analog apex]

nope, who's that

does he have an ID?

there are many "Akame" s on Steam / in HLL

[cunning crystal]

not in the server anymore

but he is usually in the europe server

[analog apex]

what server xD

[cunning crystal]

4000 score

the only populated europe server rn

[analog apex]

that doesn't help, and as long as it's official server, then nobody will help with that

as I said - the official servers aren't moderated by anybody

[cunning crystal]

pretty bad game making decision that lol

people can't even kick him

[analog apex]

the official servers are owned by the dev team, but they don't have anybody to watch over them

that's why you should just avoid the official servers, problem solved

[honest pecan]

Hmm

[analog apex]

also, the statsTracker is tracking only on the community (nonOfficial) servers, so no way to find such player's ID even, especially if he's using a very generic name used by more players

[honest pecan]

What do you think, would it be better to just leave them as is or have power tripping volunteers as admins?

Cause obviously they're not going to pay anyone for keeping that stuff in order

[sturdy quarry]

its better if you just stop wasting your life playing on official servers

[analog apex]

there can't be volunteer on the official servers, under the Team17 they would need to count as employees likely - to have a written contract with them as well

[nimble kraken]

hi question
a side of the unit promoting. in #1343090646168240199

is it also allowed to promote an milsim platform for ALL units, To organise future events TvT between units
(its pretty new tho) ? its a neutral hub website for units/divisions 🙂

[analog apex]

Some discord mod here, should be able to answer that... maybe @worthy charm or @gentle lintel ? Sry. for the ping guys but I see you are online.

Nvm., TehPolarBearr already responded meanwhile. #mess-hall message

[nimble kraken]

thankyou

[analog apex]

Also, volunteers without any contract and personal info could be very easy to become mods and possibly to powerAbuse the adminPower. Hence it's impossible to get admins to the official servers.

[stoic garnet]

You will get an answer faster

👍

[analog apex]

Posting messages in the honeypot channel is forbidden.

[stoic garnet]

Delete that

[analog apex]

Why should I. You can get the guy into trouble.

Especially if you would delete your messages asking him to do that 😄 .

[stoic garnet]

Tbh if he reads the only message in that channel and still goes for it

[pastel lotus]

Is there any chance hell let loose or HLLV comes to gamepass again?

[slate canopy]

I responded. He asked me earlier but I was busy at work.

[slate canopy]

No clue.

[past veldt]

This isn't true btw. Akame can spoof EpicIDs and maybe EOSIDs.

They're working on it

There are actually bans put in place for a lot of cheaters through Easy Anti Cheat. They link into the barricade system, review the evidence, and then implement bans. But Akame is a different case to handle

[analog apex]

Some longer time ago, I believe I reported a cheater along with evidence to the devs, but he kept being free and later I stopped watching him. Didn't feel like anything was done, but who knows... maybe they got him afterwards too? No clue. In any case I didn't get any memo regarding the admin action.

[analog apex]

you know him btw?

I guess I never heard the name before. Is he some kind of famous cheater or something?

[past veldt]

Yeah, he's known by server owners. If he joins a server and gets kicked, he will DDOS it. Qonzer stepped up their protection because of it

He usually just kicks about on official servers nowadays

There's piles of evidence for it, but as he can spoof the IDs, it's tricky

[livid verge]

Guys my game froze for no reason when i was about to spawn into an OP

now it's ### my pc

[past veldt]

You'll spawn in 20s

no im not

i get a new frame every minute or smth

well its not crashing

I cant close HLL
