[sharp birch]

Even worse yet, you're going specifically for 478, when you could just go for 480

Which'd easily be whatever elevation 500m is, +5

[latent halo]

You just click

Its pretty quick to alt tab out and adjust

Honestly unless you were super fast on the math its prob quicker for most players to just use the calc and much less likely for tks, which is all I care for

[unkempt storm]

We playing with one monitor here or what 🧐🧐

[sharp birch]

I never said it wasn't, but trust me you can do the math a lot quicker

Multiplying 2.4 by 1, 2, 3 ,4 or 5 really isn't hard dude

[unkempt storm]

Not about difficulty

[sharp birch]

"It's about speed" yeah it doesn't take long either

I ain't even flexing, like this is basic knowledge

You can just, do this

[unkempt storm]

Fast like a cat, fast af boi

[sharp birch]

So is 3rd grade math

[latent halo]

Game is full screen, alt tab is quicker than escape to move over

You can do your math idc

I'll click

[valid vigil]

Alt tab? Are you kidding me?

CTRL+Alt+Del and minimize that sh¡t

[latent halo]

Same difference?

[valid vigil]

Noooo!!

BUTTONS!

[unkempt storm]

FULL SCREEN 😱

[latent halo]

That's more buttons

[latent halo]

👀

[unkempt storm]

Exposed

[latent halo]

I do not play borderless

Sorry everyone

[unkempt storm]

I think it’s safe to say it’s been a revealing occasion for everyone involved

[latent halo]

I will now commit death

[valid vigil]

imagine playing windowed borderless

[gloomy grove]

Artillery calculators exist on your phone requiring no alt tabbing

Artillery calculator that overlays onto your screen which can read your numpad while in game also exists

[unkempt storm]

Is that a new game?

[valid vigil]

@unkempt storm It's Microsoft's CSGO

xDDD

[sharp birch]

Still, you can do math quicker, it's really not hard

[gloomy grove]

People who go all in on the 'third grade maths' stuff are comical

[latent halo]

That released?

[gloomy grove]

You literally cannot do it quicker

[latent halo]

Idc what you do

[sharp birch]

I literally can

[latent halo]

Just dont hit me

[gloomy grove]

Okay, whatever you say buddy

[latent halo]

As long as the arty hits its destination idrgac how you got there

[sharp birch]

Hell I don't even need to do the math, I've already done it enough that I just know what distance equates to what elevation offset

[gloomy grove]

I'll continue getting my answer in the 0.5 seconds it takes to get the number

It's artillery

[valid vigil]

I purposefully killed my commander using an arty

[gloomy grove]

It's brain-dead gameplay anyway

[latent halo]

Good for you

[sharp birch]

And I'll continue just straight up knowing it anyway

[latent halo]

Be quiet, both of ya

[sharp birch]

no

[gloomy grove]

No

[latent halo]

=<

Now make out

[gloomy grove]

I'm sure you're an artillery master

[sharp birch]

Don't need to be good at arty for it

[gloomy grove]

We should bow down to your infinite wisdom

[sharp birch]

Just have a brain that can do simple math

And retain memory for longer than 3 seconds

[valid vigil]

@gloomy grove bow down to me and give me glock glock

[gloomy grove]

Discounting those dyscalculics who can't do the maths

[latent halo]

Me to people who immediately leave the defence

[unkempt storm]

I’m re-engaged in this convo 🥵

[sharp birch]

If this is infinite wisdom to you, you need help

[latent halo]

Smooch smooch

[gloomy grove]

I'm taking the piss out of you mate

[sharp birch]

Sure you are

[gloomy grove]

I wouldn't read too hard into it

[unkempt storm]

Critical 🧂 is BACK and we love to see it 👏

[valid vigil]

Talk to me like one of your french grils!

[sharp birch]

I'd be surprised if you could read at all knowing this

[latent halo]

Mwahmwah

"Get in the van"

[gloomy grove]

I mean, seeing as how we're having a conversation it's pretty obvious I can read

But yknow, maybe I'm using text to speech

[latent halo]

Wow!

[sharp birch]

Oh yikes he took that literally

Hahahahaha

[latent halo]

Let's go to the secret channel without him

[gloomy grove]

I mean, seeing as how you were doing that, I just assumed you struggled with nuance

It's okay to struggle with nuance

[sharp birch]

That must be a big word for you

Good job buddy!

👍

[gloomy grove]

I'm so proud of you

[sharp birch]

Ooooh almost there man

It's "proud of me"

[latent halo]

Ladies

[gloomy grove]

You've managed to learn humour in such a short time

[sharp birch]

But you'll get there one day

[latent halo]

Go to bed

[sharp birch]

My brother in christ it's 11am for me

[latent halo]

Go to bed anyway

[gloomy grove]

Time for your mid morning nap then?

[sharp birch]

Nah man, got work in an hour

[latent halo]

Explain the situation

Theyll understand

[sharp birch]

(The middle of something is right between the start and the end)

[gloomy grove]

Maybe your morning started at 10AM

I'm not judging

[sharp birch]

Morning starts at 6am dude

[latent halo]

Kinda sounds like it

[sharp birch]

That's sunrise

[latent halo]

It's dark af rn

And 6 am

[gloomy grove]

Not where I'm from

Anyway, I have work now

[sharp birch]

Oh okay, clearly that means it isn't then

[gloomy grove]

It was lovely to meet you

[sharp birch]

Guys, I'm not starving, starvation doesn't exist then

[latent halo]

Stoopid farmers took my hours

[gloomy grove]

I hope we can do this again soon

[sharp birch]

I'll bring the numberblocks

[latent halo]

This was his daily conversation

[gloomy grove]

All good pal, I've got my own

(I work in SEND so I actually do)

[latent halo]

No wonder you wanted that other channel so bad xd

[unkempt storm]

Just gonna send it

[valid vigil]

is it a bird? is it a plane?

ARTILLERY SHELL INCOMING!

https://tenor.com/view/running-explosion-gif-21340471

[unkempt storm]

I bet they used the calculator

[valid vigil]

I count it on a notepad

🎩
🧐

[wooden narwhal]

using a calculator for artillery?

i just hold W or S and click when it reaches the funny number

[valid vigil]

the funny number always hits something

[unkempt storm]

We all have that funny number 🥵

[signal harness]

🔢 👈 🥵

[frigid spruce]

I use arty calculator but on points i just spread 4 mil every 2nd/3rd shell. Or i type in squad chat previous mils to remember high impact zones. I got some degree of dyscalculia

[latent halo]

@proud spoke you still get class xp when you leave a game

[valid vigil]

Just hit the blue dots on your map

[proud spoke]

I thought you lost it all?

Good to know , thanks

[latent halo]

@rich bluff theres not much that can be done except implement a massive anti stream snipe mode that disables map and markers completely or ban streamers

even just watching where they spawn visually gives complete knowledge of where it is for an experienced player

[lapis siren]

I’m debating buying the game or not and I was just wondering if the console version is the same as the pc version.(or at least close)

[latent halo]

they are currently the same i believe

pretty sure parity has been reached so now pc might have the updates for a week or so longer than console but no major differences

[lapis siren]

Ok thank you

[latent halo]

You missed a free weekend like 3 weeks ago sadly so itll prob be a while till one of those

Sales are a bit more common

[coarse canopy]

Console free weekend had technical issues and is due to be rescheduled @lapis siren.

Keep your eyes peeled on #console-telegrams for a free weekend sometime soonish

[lapis siren]

I plan on buying the game if it be goes on sale for Christmas👍

[dawn widget]

does this game have a campaign?

[ocean fjord]

Not yet. It's supposed to get a campaign mode that somehow links matches and maps together

[sturdy rivet]

It’s on sale rn, currently $27.99 usd

From its usual $39.99 usd

[meager burrow]

Wow.

[latent halo]

wow

[dawn widget]

id buy it if i had a xbox series x, but my brother has been saying he'll buy us one he just has to save up

im more hyped for this game than i ever was for insurgency when it released on console

[lapis siren]

Thx will buy

[lapis siren]

Is the ultimate edition or the normal edition better

Or does it not matter

[sweet cliff]

The only difference between HLL editions should be cosmetics

[lapis siren]

Ok thank you

[night elm]

Hey guys sorry I’m probably really late to the party but. The “Skull buckets” DLC on steam has 7 helmets pictured but only lists 6 in the description. Is it a tease for the upcoming Brits?

[latent halo]

No

Its an error

[night elm]

Ok cool, just making sure I'm not going crazy and seeing things

[boreal zephyr]

Hello guys, just joined the discord server!

Even though I've been playing HLL since july!

[unkempt storm]

👋

[crude isle]

how do I become a member?

not just new recruit here?

[latent halo]

Give me 30k usd

[sturdy rivet]

Any tips for someone just starting the game?

[dawn widget]

be chill and dont play like a regular FPS game

be more passive and wait for the enemy

only move around when you are certain no one is peeking

and waiting to shoot you

or just generally anyone at all to shoot you

[loud tulip]

Hi,I just bought the game today. I wish there is somebody who are willing to show me the ropes. I want to get used to the game fast so I can get into competitive play since I'm interested in competitive play.

[latent halo]

Check pins for the guide vid

[loud tulip]

thanks

Check out The Bunker, lot's of people willing to help new player's Join the Discord.👍

[toxic vigil]

Is there a way to check mic's in game? Mic works on other platform, or is a case of a lot of players don't actually communicate?

[glad turtle]

prob the last, just switch squad until you find people that speak

[barren shell]

Embarrassing to ask this, but anybody know how to ping the enemy on ps5? Lol

[sturdy rivet]

Should be left on dpad lol

[barren shell]

Thank you!! Don’t tell anyone I had to ask 😂

[unkempt storm]

it's too late, you're famous

[fading burrow]

Hi i'm new to the game and i love it, so far i like medic the most and i would like to learn the rope and find a good squad or a division squad.
Ps. je suis Qc/fr donc je parle francais

[unkempt storm]

#pc-divisions-recruitment #pc-looking-for-unit, may be french specific ones

[inland lantern]

I'm very interested in getting the game; however, I'm put off by the reports I've seen of cheaters (wall hacks, e.g.). How rampant is the cheating? Does it take away from the enjoyment of the experience?

[latent halo]

Not often

[inland lantern]

Another noob question: should I buy the game bundle with the new maps or is the original game good enough?

[sweet cliff]

you get all the maps when you buy the game the only thing extra you get is cosmetics

[inland lantern]

So just skins and the like? No maps?

[uncut smelt]

Yep

[inland lantern]

Ty very much.

[gritty kite]

i have a very important question

you know how you see a directional red ring when you get shot, does that mean the direction from where you got shot ?

because it doesnt seem like it does

[uncut smelt]

it shows you where you've been hit. If they shoot from the front but hit the hand, there is a chance that he will show from the side

[tepid moat]

can we have 3d or 2d shellholes on the terrain after firing with a tank?

[junior oyster]

can someone teach me how to play im new

[wooden narwhal]

Learn by playing

Don’t be scared to jump in

If you find a vocal squad and let them know you are new, they’ll probably give you guidance

[autumn sand]

I just picked up the game yesterday and a blast kn the first few games, cause everybody was in proximity chat and was bellowing orders around, which was really adding to the Atmosphere.
But after hopping on some games today I was disappointed to hear that nobody was talking, in none of the squads I joined. So I have a question, were my first games an exception? Does nobody talk in console generally?

[uncut smelt]

there will indeed be more silent people on consoles. because the percentage of people with a microphone on consoles is lower.

[fringe rock]

Get a mic and speak clearly go cover to cover and as @wooden narwhal learn by playing it takes about 50 hours to get better at the game so be patient man

[late drum]

Looking for tank and artillery players that would like to join an organized group on PC. Dm me for more info

[crude juniper]

Hey, anyone who want to play w me? Im new to the game and lookin for someone to play with

[short trout]

join our community!

[crude juniper]

Sure man, where do I jojn

join*

[short trout]

I Dm'ed you

[trim estuary]

they should make it were when the tank is blown up its not charred up they should make it were it show huge holes depending on where you hit or shell type would be sick

[dusty tiger]

Evening gents

[pliant tide]

Ello

[dawn widget]

its pure ptsd

[cobalt flame]

Is the game ganne be free on 25/12/2022 on epic?

Seems like not

[mental cedar]

How can I tell what is really going on other than teammates exploding and me dying

[slim fractal]

Didn't know this game was on EGS?

[cobalt flame]

I checkt it isn’t

[slim fractal]

I know it isn't

[cobalt flame]

You now what lul means in Dutch not?

[valid mortar]

Keep your head down. Check your surroundings, then the map. Talk with your squad/teammates. No one set of eyes can see everything, so we have to paint the larger picture for each other.

[dawn widget]

Hey yall, I just got a PS5 today and got HLL, I have experience with some WW1 sim games and a taste for WW2. Anyone have some starter tips that would be helpful tonight? And if anyone wants to make a HLL group or something just dm me.
Thanks!

[hollow stirrup]

Never take officers unless ur level 50

Play more passive

Dont rush

Use ur combat role

[autumn rose]

ignore the first one

take officer early to get comfortable quick

[dawn widget]

I forgot to mention I have leading and officer experience in other games, I rather get at least some experience in game before a SL or Commander role

[hollow stirrup]

No low lvl officer's dont know how to place outposts

[autumn rose]

False

I started officer at lvl 19 and was lvl 10 by level 70

Dont make people afraid of leading

[neat sundial]

Worse advice you could give anyone.

[rotund laurel]

First have fun with infantry, later play as engineer to learn about resources. When comfortable play as infantry with more powers aka squad lead and shortly after an commander.

[dawn widget]

Makes sense to me, rifleman is a first for me though

[glass karma]

After you understand game mechanics though

[autumn rose]

People with an IQ above 102 normally get it down pretty fast

[glass karma]

It took me until level 5

But i was playing my uncles account and got all his classes to level 5

Now i gotta do my account

[autumn rose]

IQ of 120

[dull hatch]

Just upgraded to next gen and started playing about 3 days ago. I took on the rifleman role since I felt like I'd be a liability to my team if I picked something seemingly more important/specific

Does anyone have tips for learning Sniper? I've watched tips videos but I'm trying to gather as much info as possible from players too

[glass karma]

Use whatever you feel comfortable not many people care if your learning the game its a really friendly community really for beginners if someones complaining or something just tell them your new and they will understand

But with a sniper i say use vertical to your advantage when possible and make sure to take your shots wisely

[dull hatch]

Thank you very much! My 2nd game I got the sniper class and I got 7 kills with 1 death. I understand K/D is obviously not important, but I like to think I helped take tension off my team (:

[glass karma]

When i play sniper i normally push deep into enemy lines and sit far back from where i can restrict my vision from there side, like stand next to a building covering me from their spawn area.

[dull hatch]

I've been playing Machine Gunner primarily, and I've been successful in helping defend my team's flanks quite often since my TV is very low quality and I can't make out targets at range

[dull hatch]

That's good! I try to always get behind their lines and disrupt them from behind while also on the move, so to keep them fighting from various angles. I have read a few books about snipers on the eastern front and tactics, and it's absolutely stunning to me that I can truly immerse myself and successfully use those tactics in the game... this game is unbelievable

[glass karma]

Also tanking is pretty fun id say

I went 120-5 a few games ago

[dull hatch]

I'll have to try that eventually

[glass karma]

5 garrisons destroyed 12 ohtoosts

Outposts*

[dull hatch]

that's beautiful

[glass karma]

When tanking you need a mic though.

Communication is key in a tank squad

[dull hatch]

That's for sure

[glass karma]

Especially the spotter

[dull hatch]

I was nervous and stopped playing sniper because I don't want to make the spotter feel frustrated with me with not communicating and coordinating.. so I've been taking positions where comms is less a priority

[glass karma]

Id just say rifleman/auto rifleman/engineer/mg/medic/tanker main roles to learn id say

At the start

[dull hatch]

Simple enough

I plan on learning more classes once my monitor comes so I can land long range shots infinitely more accurately

[glass karma]

I play on a big tv, lol

[latent halo]

Shoot enemies

[dull hatch]

I have to see which suspicious and out of place pixels are the bad ones hahhaha

[glass karma]

If anything moves shoot it, if the grass is waving shoot it

[lapis idol]

Hi there... So i just bought the game, downloaded it...

And it looks rather uninviting (servers are full or "German mic only")... any other way to "join" the game...

Any tips ?

[glad pasture]

Check #pc-looking-for-unit and #pc-divisions-recruitment

[dull hatch]

There is grass? 😭

I jest. If I'm a Machine Gunner I typically fire a burst if a have a strong feeling there are enemies in a shrub or running through smoke

[remote willow]

Is there a way to transfer my Xbox hell let loose account to my PC?

[dawn widget]

Perfect

[uncut smelt]

no🫠

[stoic hollow]

ridiculous that there isn’t honestly, i’m level 210ish and am having to start from scratch on PC

[latent halo]

F

I feel ya

Similar thing happened with siege for me

[formal idol]

When do you start having fun

[latent halo]

when you git gud

or git friends

[formal idol]

Great, yet another GiT gUd game

I'm not gonna waste my time, thanks

[stoic hollow]

you need to invest some time into learning the game mechanics sure but you can have fun pretty easily without getting mega invested in it

[versed ember]

I just started, it feels a bit like squad. It definitely isn't pick up and play like cod, but if you play slow and look around you die less.

[latent halo]

its a shooter game at its core

getting good is a requirement lol

aim and kill faster than your opponent or catch them unaware

that takes map knowledge or skill

or be a supportive role and help with spawns and logistical stuff

[sweet cliff]

the game is better with friends, find some community servers in your region, play those, join their discords, make some friends

[formal idol]

Whatever, thanks for trying but this isnt a game

[reef field]

I play this game with no friends, I bought it two days ago and have 10 hours in, the first 2 hours are pretty rough, but then you get comfortable talking to your squad and you start making friends and it's incredible.

[slim fractal]

You gotta understand, not everyone likes to play with "friends" and with "communication". Then it's best to let go from those people They have plenty of other games to play, HLL isn't for them.

[wooden narwhal]

skill issue

I'm a stud, I'm ballsy, I don't take no crutch mechanics from anyone - I play my skill based games any time I want. I don't need no low skill ceiling like you :Arnold:

Top tier arnie clip

and i have never played the game before

[astral yoke]

Hey boys. Whaddaya say

[quick cloud]

Yesss

[prime quartz]

When u buy a 4K monitor

[dawn widget]

aint no way bro quit hll

i willingly want to play this game

i enjoy being insane

[latent halo]

That guy didnt want it from the start it sounds like if getting good was his issue

[dull hatch]

mine is on it's way, I'm so excited

[dawn widget]

I kinda played commander at lvl 19, I did decent

[gilded idol]

if ur sending in recons/bombing runs and supplies accordingly with other player's request and your map knowledge, ur good no matter the lvl

[dawn widget]

I mostly do what people recommend or when they need supplies and things, lost all games though but by little

[astral yoke]

I've been playing since November. Still haven't got gud yet

[elder yarrow]

How do you replenish ammo for tank

[upbeat tiger]

Drive back to spawn and halt near the resupply crane.

[dawn widget]

Any good pc divisions that use machine guns?

[gloomy grove]

Any team that is actually competitive will use MGs

[dawn widget]

ohh okay

[meager elk]

just booted the game. any help would be awesome!

[gloomy grove]

In the pins for this channel there are some useful guides

[dull hatch]

Patience, teamwork, have a tactical mindset, and talk to your team to see what you can help with (:

[spice ravine]

just bought this game, looking to join a division that helps newbies, over 18, have voice, uk based

[azure thunder]

[grand lichen]

[azure thunder]

whyd u change ur platform role?

[grand lichen]

[vocal zephyr]

Rip

No not cross play

[grand lichen]

anyone wanna play bored asf got the game today

[vocal zephyr]

I would be on later today damn work

[grand lichen]

damn

[elder yarrow]

Cross platform is a option, yes

[sweet cliff]

it's only cross platform between Playstation/Xbox, not console -> PC

[nova shell]

hello, any important tips I should follow

[sweet cliff]

just read the new players guide it's pinned in here

[nova shell]

thx

[vocal zephyr]

Only for console

[steel goblet]

you’ll die a lot so dont get angry

[civic cedar]

I bought this game yesterday and it's a blast. Finally a good shooter.

[cunning mountain]

Does anyone know how to be able to find a tank as AT better? Every time I play as AT I just can't seem to find any.

[junior forum]

The tanks smell the AT shells so they go and hide from you

But you could also look for spots from your team and commanders

[unkempt storm]

👀

[dawn widget]

look map

find tank marker

go hunt tank

or ask friend where tank

[wooden narwhal]

Listen for engine sounds, the sound of cannon fire and listen to callouts and markers from SL/Commander

You'll learn areas of higher traffic once you get more familiar with the map, and can predict armor travel a bit better

[cunning mountain]

Thanks ya'll, also one more rather technical question. My local voice chat is reaaaally quiet although its set to 100%, anyway to fix?

[glass beacon]

Even after changing ping in steam still cant access servers anyone know why ?

[elder yarrow]

What update are we currently on?

[wooden narwhal]

Changing ping...?

You can't change your ping

[hollow stirrup]

Sometimes the enemy has none
Communicate with your squad
Once u hear a cannon gobble over there

[vocal zephyr]

it tells you how in one of the guides

[wooden narwhal]

You can change the location of the server your steam is routed through

But your latency (ping) is what it is

It depends on various factors, but none that you can change in a major way unless you dig a long trench and install fiber optic cables yourself

His connectivity problem is probably a bad gateway/router configuration

[glass beacon]

i meant steam server connection so it searches 300+

3000+

[wooden narwhal]

oh right

hmm

[glass beacon]

i fixed it

[wooden narwhal]

Yeah if it still shows you nothing I definitely think its your router - do you have a wifi box in your home that you use for connectivity with a copper connection?

[glass beacon]

you were right

my router configuration was messed up

[wooden narwhal]

[glass beacon]

my dns was changed

to automatic

manual i mean

[orchid river]

👋

So I'm planning to get this game soon,I've heard mics are a must have,is this true?

[dawn widget]

Yes

You can play without a mic but it heavily impacts both your and your teams performance

[orchid river]

I don't know how this game actually plays yet so I have no idea how it affects this

[dawn widget]

Communication is key

Be it from just calling out enemy’s to relaying info to your squad lead the Side with the most information usually comes out the victor

[wooden narwhal]

You speak as much as you do in Squad if you join a communicating squad

[dawn widget]

You can be silent just fine but it gives a much more fluid and Better experience with a microphone

[wooden narwhal]

But your silence doesn't impact the game as much as it does in Squad

[orchid river]

I have never played squad

[wooden narwhal]

The negative value of your silence means nothing in HLL in comparison to Squad

[vocal zephyr]

On pc you should be alright

You can still type

[orchid river]

Is chat enough to communicate ?

[wooden narwhal]

I'd say no, but others disagree

[vocal zephyr]

Usually you have enough oaying attention if they're trying

[wooden narwhal]

I rarely check chat because I'm too busy trying to spot things

It differs from person to person

I'd say its worth it getting a microphone if you don't have one in general

[vocal zephyr]

Yea I miss half the messages but I'm still new

[wooden narwhal]

You are barred from a lot of things by not having and using one

[orchid river]

I do have one but I don't really use it much when I'm not with friends

[wooden narwhal]

Just jump into it

People are very willing to learn and teach if you are enthusiastic and mic up

[orchid river]

Alright

Well thanks for the advice then

It would be a bit awkward for me due to not being a native English speaker and I'm not sure if people would understand what I say through vc

But I'll give it a try if I can

[wooden narwhal]

A wide variety of people inhabit Euro servers

There are even servers for specific languages

[orchid river]

I know,that's where I'll play

Just unsure yet

[hazy wharf]

I got a quick question guys. When you reload in this game does the magazine get stored with the remaining ammo in a "queue" or do the bullets just go into a pool instead?

[sweet cliff]

It's a pool

[hazy wharf]

@sweet cliff I see. Thanks

[dull hatch]

I understand, no worries. If you want to have fun and you're not comfortable, in my opinion it is your choice and not a must.

[radiant onyx]

hey y’all! my fiancé got me the game for christmas and i’m excited to get going! BF1 is one of my fave FPS’s of all time and i believe i can add to this community too! y’all can call me dave if y’all want too

what is the best direction to head to find new squads to play with?

[vocal zephyr]

I'll be honest if you're fine with it I like young poop lmao

[vocal zephyr]

There should be a console chat for looking for squads and platoons and such

Loved bf1 was the best in my opinion

Got this game a few months ago and really great

[oak moss]

If your new, dont go to "dealers den" server

I guess cheating and team stacking is allowed lol

[radiant onyx]

yes yung poop is what i prefer

[radiant onyx]

🤙🏻

yah bf1 was the best

[rapid nacelle]

I've heard supports mention that they have explosive ammo i can use occasionally, how does that whole thing work

i assume it's like an anti-armor measure

[gloomy grove]

Explosive ammo crates (from Support Lvl 3 and German rifleman Lvl 6) refill anything that explodes. Grenades, rockets, satchels, smokes, mines etc.

[rapid nacelle]

ahh

cool

[pine portal]

Hi, I got the game yesterday is there anything I should know about the game that is a basic knowledge and applies to everything?

[gilded idol]

Left click on grenade, 30-50 metre throw depending on whether ur running or not and angle. Right click to throw it at 2-3 metee

Only on german sticknades, hold your grenade for a second or so to allow your grenade to detonate on impact, doesnt work on egg grenades

Crouch run behind obstacles

[wooden narwhal]

Everything is pretty straight forward - the most in-depth systems mechanically are resources (nodes) and garrison dispersion and positioning

If you have okay game-sense and can aim alright you'll do just fine by learning as you go

[gilded idol]

Dont forget your nades, use it while you have it.

[unreal meteor]

I'm on console and struggle seeing the compass at the bottom. Is there a way to amend the position to the top or change the colour? Foy is a blur when trying to read it

[elder yarrow]

How do you size screen to tv?

[dawn widget]

Idk

[elder yarrow]

Is there a way to change gears quicker console

In a tank

[vocal zephyr]

I believe it's up and down on d pad

@elder yarrow

[elder yarrow]

I know how I’m wondering if there’s a quicker way

Like can I assign a button to put me in reverse immediately?

[vocal zephyr]

Oh that I don't know

[sweet cliff]

You have to cycle through the gears in order

You can only go +/- 1 at a time

[elder yarrow]

Also is the shot gun in game pretty realistic like shotguns are in insurgency sandstorm? Like they actually have range and stuff

[dawn widget]

There's a damn shotgun in this game?

[vocal zephyr]

From what I heard they are realistic

[wooden narwhal]

They're alright

[vocal zephyr]

I haven't tried them

[wooden narwhal]

You still have to be closer than expected though to kill someone in one shot

[dawn widget]

Where can you get it

[wooden narwhal]

U.S Engineer and assault kit

[dawn widget]

Oh alright 🧕🎯🔫💮

🤙

[wooden narwhal]

at least its not as underwhelming as the flamethrower

I tried to love it, I really did

but gave up going into my 9th match with it

[dawn widget]

How did i even miss a flamethrower

I've seen nobody use it too

[wooden narwhal]

Cause right now its hot doo-doo

A generous range of 10 meters at best

[dawn widget]

well i don't think it would do 30 or 40 right

[wooden narwhal]

handicapped mobility when "bracing", meaning you walk at a 50% reduced speed and aim horizontally at the speed of a tank turret turning

[wooden narwhal]

Flamethrowers historically have a very fearsome range

[dawn widget]

It's actually 40

Damn

[wooden narwhal]

gelled range is 40 yeah

[dawn widget]

But tbh i think even if they made it better they should make like so it's only 4 or 5 people per team

Cause it would be kinda weird every squad having it

[wooden narwhal]

Flamethrowers aren't impactful at all

[dawn widget]

And just making it a flamethrower battle

[wooden narwhal]

MGs have more of a presence that dominates than Flamethrowers do

[vocal zephyr]

I think they have the limited range so people wouldn't abuse them

[wooden narwhal]

what do you mean abuse them

you mean have fun??

[dawn widget]

Burn those Vietnamese children

I mean

Mb

[vocal zephyr]

There's only fifty people per team

[wooden narwhal]

they're so horribly ineffective and unusable that you might as well just not bother

[dawn widget]

how much damage

[vocal zephyr]

You'd easily clear half of them by running in with a flamethrower that doesn't malfunction

[wooden narwhal]

the explosives, ammo and supplies kit is far more valuable kill and utility wise

[wooden narwhal]

no lol

flamethrower has very limited ammo and you'll rarely survive burning more than 5 guys right now

[dawn widget]

@trail maple what's ur opinion on this buddy

[wooden narwhal]

the second someone sees flames they auto in your direction

[wooden narwhal]

I think they're aware of it, and are working on making it better

iirc they publicly stated so

[vocal zephyr]

An objective doesn't have much area so if you're wanting the flamethrower to have the range it should you can clear an objective alone

[wooden narwhal]

but it won't be done until after the new year because of holiday and stuff

[wooden narwhal]

i didn't say it should have 40 feet of range dude

i'm saying that the real thing did

having 10 feet of range is laughable

which it currently does (or at least feels like)

[vocal zephyr]

So then what do you want

[wooden narwhal]

flames also don't "bounce" on objects, so forget clearing a bunker by firing through the slits - not possible

[wooden narwhal]

do you want me to spell it out or

[vocal zephyr]

Yes

[dawn widget]

in my opinion it should have 15 - 30 range and they should add like you have to extinguish yourself like pat yourself to get the fire to extinguish

[vocal zephyr]

I've been burned in a bunker

[dawn widget]

so it would slowly damage you over time

If you didn't extinguish

[wooden narwhal]

• Increase range by 50%
• Remove ADS mouse movement penalty (NOT MOVEMENT SPEED OF PLAYER)
• Decrease player movement penalty when ADS by approximately 10-15%
• Make flames "bounce" in the environment rather than hitting and remaining static on shooter's aim

[wooden narwhal]

Cool (or bad I guess), but flames still don't bounce in the environment like they should

The guy who burned you probably managed to get the flame within your hitbox somehow, but they don't bounce

[vocal zephyr]

What do you mean by make flames bounce

[wooden narwhal]

That the flames should move around in enviroments

If you throw a bucket of water at a wall, the water doesn't stick to it

It splashes

Hits near by objects, goes upwards, downwards and to the sides

[vocal zephyr]

Oh

Splashing lol

Yea that should happen

Increasing range I don't think is a good idea

Movement speed idk I could take or leave

[acoustic dock]

A least up to 42m

[vocal zephyr]

If they add in wrapon malfunctions sure

That to me otherwise sounds too op

[ancient sparrow]

What should I do to be the most effective as a noob conscript? Obviously I'm ready to follow direction if I have an active squad leader but that hasn't been the case yet.

[sweet cliff]

read the new players guide, contribute to building/defending spawns

[unkempt storm]

Can anybody build a spawn??

[ancient sparrow]

I think only squad leaders can but like I said I'm a noob.
Rifleman seem to carry some kind of supplies and I assume that those can assist with that if you drop them for your squad leader.

But that might be ammo? Lol

[unkempt storm]

Noodle and I go way back, was only trolling. Yes, only squad leads and command can build spawns. The supplies needed can be carried/dropped by a support player, riflemen drop ammo

[sweet cliff]

who is drew

[unkempt storm]

Don’t make me look bad 👀

[ancient sparrow]

Lol.
All right about to go back in and defend some points with a rifle again. Maybe learn how to use this ping feature lol

[vocal zephyr]

Only sl and commanders can

[unkempt storm]

😈

[vocal zephyr]

Rifleman carry ammo and explosives. Support carries supplies to build with. Outposts don't cost but garrisons do.

[wooden narwhal]

support carries supplies, ammo and explosives too

[vocal zephyr]

Fair enough

Ammo bearers don't have supplies right?

[wooden narwhal]

if you mean riflemen then no

[vocal zephyr]

No the support

Idk if it's the same for usa and Soviet but tier two of the Germans is an ammo bearer

Can't remember if they also get supplies

[wooden narwhal]

all support class kits have supplies

whether they have ammo (bullets and explosives) is a different story

[vocal zephyr]

Germans get both I was thinking of playing as that but then decided there's not enough sl that do sl stuff

Everyone wants to be sl until it's time to do sl things

[woeful obsidian]

which roles carry smoke grenades?

[vocal zephyr]

Quite a few I think

Medics some rifleman sl

Prolly more

[woeful obsidian]

looks like rifleman and medic and officer only

[vocal zephyr]

Huh I figured a few more would

[woeful obsidian]

Officers and command too

[vocal zephyr]

Ah yea I figured support would get a role with them

[wooden narwhal]

assault

engineer too iirc

sniper

[rain hatch]

Americas AT is trash

You can only get behind shots on a panzer 4+

German PanzerShreck shreds Sherman’s from a side shot

Hopefully when the British get added we get to see the use of the PIAT

[mint vault]

You should be an officer in a locked squad

[gritty kite]

what is the point of capping the server queues at 6?

i still find it annoying to get into a match when i play this game

all the full servers also have a full queue so even getting into a queue is annoying

[sweet cliff]

it's specifically so that people will spread out and play on other not full servers instead of having giant queues on a few servers

[gritty kite]

i see

[valid vigil]

does HLL have some sort of match replay system? (full matches are automatically recorded and stored, which can be replayed in a free perspective mode)

[autumn rose]

nope

[valid vigil]

😤

[autumn rose]

Imma be real with you chief, before you ask if HLL has any unknown feature to you, just remember if you've previously heard of it being mentioned, and if not, almost absolutely the game doesn't have it

this game is actually rather shallow when it comes to QOL

[valid vigil]

I'm asking it here for a reason, chief

[autumn rose]

I meant for future reference

[valid vigil]

Just wanted to know, thank you

[autumn rose]

it'll save you the sad hope ruining questions

[unkempt storm]

Look at me… I’m the chief now 👀

[cloud umbra]

Need some decent people to play with man sick of no comms and playing with boys lol

[deft trellis]

i need people to play with, always no comms

[cloud meadow]

What's been happening in HLL? It's been like 2 weeks since I last played.

[grim tinsel]

Nothing

[unkempt storm]

Two whole weeks gasps

[cinder topaz]

how do i switch from full auto to semi on stg 44?

[dawn widget]

Can’t

Full auto only

[cinder topaz]

oh they should make it an option

[dawn widget]

Yea

Another to add to the QOL list

[gloomy grove]

Just click the button once and it fires once?

[cinder topaz]

yes but it would be better to have a semi auto option just like every single fps game

[gloomy grove]

It makes absolutely zero sense to add it when it's possible to shoot a single bullet anyway

[dawn widget]

Just tap firing and semi-auto is completely different

[gloomy grove]

End result = one bullet comes out

[cinder topaz]

exactly

[dawn widget]

Having it in tap fire means you have to go much slower and it has recoil

While semi-auto allows you to control the fire rate and recoil pattern

[cinder topaz]

i mean the stg 44 had semi and auto IRL so why cant it have it in the game

[dawn widget]

It’s not just “one bullet”. It’s all about control

[gloomy grove]

Just click faster

[gloomy grove]

It's not a realistic game?

[dawn widget]

A lot of weapons have semi-auto functions irl but not in game

[dawn widget]

Bruh

It’s just another for the list of QOL stuff they should add

[gloomy grove]

It's functionally in the game already

There is no point

There would be zero point in using the semi auto mode

[dawn widget]

Tank improvements, artillery rework, free looks, loadout reworks, etc

Hope they do an operation health soon to fix and change a bunch of stuff

Love me that content but getting fed up with some stuff

[gloomy grove]

Current developers finish in July and then T17 take over. These developers aren't doing an operation health

[dawn widget]

Where was that said?

[gloomy grove]

You better pray to the T17 god's that they care

[gloomy grove]

Oh like a year ago when T17 bought the IP

[dawn widget]

Can you send a link to the article?

[gloomy grove]

https://polaris.brighterir.com/public/team17/news/rns/story/w0m51nx

[dawn widget]

Where does it say the current development team is getting the boot?

Seems like they just got liscensing deal

[gloomy grove]

"A separate development contract has been agreed to cover the transitional period over the next 18 months which includes delivery of services and significant content to support the next stage of growth in terms of revenue and IP value for the HLL franchise.",

Literally the third paragraph

[dawn widget]

That seems like a different team was added on to help with content over the year and a half

Not the original team

Which I would assume is the people who want to fix the game

[gloomy grove]

A Black Matter Dev was discussing the next project for them on a HLL stream a few weeks back

They're not sticking around after July

The lead map designer has already left

[grim tinsel]

The current devs haven’t said anything, Japan, canada, British are still planned

Whether it’s team17 or bm

They also said a 2023 roadmap is due soon

[gloomy grove]

The only evidence of Canada/Japan being added is one moderators copy/paste

British faction is coming in the next update

[dawn widget]

Dude it’s on the kickstarter

[gloomy grove]

Right?

So?

So is armoured recovery vehicles

And those pledge goals for Canada/Japan weren't met anyway

Early War Ostfront Germany was met but not implemented btw

Describes the game as having "sweeping 4km² maps" which aren't playable anymore

"We’re removing all the modern gameplay incentives [...] What perks did you unlock? Which gun did you unlock?"

Still adds in unlockable loadout systems

What about barrel changes

But anyway. It's on the Kickstarter

[grim tinsel]

Would he great to use your brain wouldn’t it lol

Clearly they removed certain things

If that’s the case and kickstarter is completely un credible why did they add flamethrowers which were on the kickstarter ?

They most likely rather do faction updates then qol updates it’s rather simple, they said it’s still planned

If it was never planned don’t you think they would’ve said so ?

Or if they scrapped the idea don’t you think they would’ve still said so ?

[radiant talon]

new to the game on PC, looking for a good squad who can show me some training

[unkempt storm]

#console-divisions-recruitment #pc-looking-for-unit may have better luck

[dawn widget]

hell let loose dying?

[rain hatch]

They should add British then Japan

Canada is irrelevant in a way

They can wait

[dawn widget]

Romen you have angered me the Americans can wait

I can’t wait for them to add micro transactions and anime skins

[gloomy grove]

No, just getting new developers in 6 months or so

[idle dragon]

How on earth are you supposed to see anything in this game

[fair eagle]

The will, and a dream @idle dragon

[warm pebble]

new guy, looking to play!

[gloomy grove]

Turn quality settings down and turn brightness up

[gloomy grove]

British are coming next.

[vocal zephyr]

Hold it half a second too long and you shoot twice I'd prefer a semi auto button

[vocal zephyr]

Yes there is

[gloomy grove]

How often does this actually happen? 😂

[vocal zephyr]

If you look into it tho the effective firing range of the stg is halved by using full auto

[vocal zephyr]

And all the time for me

[wooden narwhal]

Yes, you can click a single time with the STG easily and "semi" it that way

[gloomy grove]

Not in HLL though

[wooden narwhal]

but its a serious oversight that there isn't a semi auto mode

[vocal zephyr]

For aure

[gloomy grove]

It's not

[wooden narwhal]

Why not

[gloomy grove]

It's basically in the game already

[wooden narwhal]

No

[vocal zephyr]

Because you can "click once"

[gloomy grove]

It really doesn't matter

[wooden narwhal]

If it was in the game you could switch to it

[vocal zephyr]

It does

[wooden narwhal]

It does matter yea lol

[unkempt storm]

im feeling uncomfortable

[wooden narwhal]

If they can take their time to make an in-depth gear system for all the tanks and vehicles, then a semi-auto mode isn't a lot to ask for

I don't understand why you would oppose a net-positive quality of life feature

some people are weird

IIRC the fire selector is actually modelled as well

[pliant tide]

We need fire selectors

[hollow stirrup]

Who

[wooden narwhal]

so its a small animation and then a simple "If:" query that force locks you to fire one bullet per click

[pliant tide]

For the Thompson, STG and BAR (slower/faster fire modes)

[gloomy grove]

It will never get used out side of weird roleplay

[wooden narwhal]

are you tripping?

people use semi-auto all the time

[pliant tide]

You on smth?

[wooden narwhal]

thats all I use in games like squad to conserve ammo

[hollow stirrup]

Fg42 should be changeable to from full auto to semi auto

[wooden narwhal]

yea exactly

its an oversight that no weapons have it

objectively

[gloomy grove]

Why are you conserving ammo?! How often are you running out?

[pliant tide]

Knew I forgot one, cheers

[wooden narwhal]

More often than not, because I don't die instantly most of the time

[vocal zephyr]

I've run out of ammo a few times

You get five mags with the stg

[wooden narwhal]

Why are you debating an objectively positive QoL addition?

[late obsidian]

It’s kinda an essential in fps games

[gloomy grove]

Because it'll never get used

It has absolutely zero purpose

[wooden narwhal]

lol

[wooden narwhal]

lol

[gloomy grove]

Weird roleplay aside

[wooden narwhal]

ight bro

[vocal zephyr]

By you

[unkempt storm]

amount of times i've ran out of ammo, ever = 0

[late obsidian]

I’d use it

[wooden narwhal]

skill issue

[pliant tide]

God forbid we tell hums about Squad / Sandstorm

him*

[late obsidian]

It also offers better fire control over distances

[gloomy grove]

By the entire comp community

[gloomy grove]

I've played both... They're different games to HLL

[vocal zephyr]

Says you

[wooden narwhal]

ight so

lemme ask you this right

[gloomy grove]

HLL, a game where tap firing and recoil is minimal

[wooden narwhal]

this little question here

how does semi-auto affect you if it gets added?

[unkempt storm]

if you're running out of ammo, yes

[pliant tide]

Both involve long range firefights similar to HLL, similar mag amount

[wooden narwhal]

running out of ammo means you've stayed alive long enough to expend it

[late obsidian]

You don’t need to use it

[gloomy grove]

DM some of your recent personal stats tabs champ

[unkempt storm]

😬

[gloomy grove]

I'll DM mine

Can't post images here

[unkempt storm]

dm me babe

while you're at it

[wooden narwhal]

yikes

dudes have no actual reasons besides "guhhh nobody will use it" so they resort to a dick measuring contest

[late obsidian]

Yea

[gloomy grove]

Only guys who drop negative KDs say this

[vocal zephyr]

Why are you worried about kd

[late obsidian]

How does it being added affect you lol

[vocal zephyr]

This isn't cod

[latent halo]

You get 180 bullets not mags

[gloomy grove]

Skill issue

[vocal zephyr]

True

[unkempt storm]

CHUM HAS ARRIVED

[vocal zephyr]

What

[unkempt storm]

WE ARE SAVED

[next oasis]

HLL is a much easier shooter than CoD

[late obsidian]

This game isn’t centered around kd tho

[gloomy grove]

Oh wait we can post images here can we?

[latent halo]

Whenever you reload a mag that is half empty the bullets get sent back to the void stockpile

So if you load a half empty again you get a full mag back

[unkempt storm]

Uncle Chum, can you tell us the story of how firing modes would be useless

[vocal zephyr]

Yes but you essential have five msgd

Mags

[gloomy grove]

At a high enough level where you actually have spawns consistently placed it's almost entirely about killing

[vocal zephyr]

That's why it tells you five in the bottom right

[latent halo]

Ye

[gloomy grove]

Go play comp. Every team values kills

[wooden narwhal]

alright boys send me your screenshots

[pliant tide]

Don’t think so, I’ve loaded half empties.

[wooden narwhal]

i sent you mine : )

[next oasis]

Bad/new players are the only ones that think kills don't matter in HLL

[latent halo]

was it your last mag?

[vocal zephyr]

Ehh

[pliant tide]

Yes

[vocal zephyr]

As long as you're doing Wyeth

[pliant tide]

“You don’t agree with me so you’re bad”

[next oasis]

If you can't manage to down targets in HLL, you're probably really struggling in other shooter games

[unkempt storm]

"I've stayed alive for 20 minutes and expended all my ammo" kills - 4

[vocal zephyr]

Lmfao

[next oasis]

People who aren't good at the game usually don't present agreeable points

[latent halo]

My priority list for targets is spawns > tanks > infantry

[vocal zephyr]

Hmm

[late obsidian]

Debatable. I’m better at some fps’s than HLL

[vocal zephyr]

Kd from my experience doesn't matter

As long as you do kill and can push

Your golden

Doesn't matter if you died ten times if you take the point

You take the point

[next oasis]

Doesn't matter for those who have no affect anyway, which leads them to think it doesn't matter overall.
KD absolutely does matter

[vocal zephyr]

I'll die thirty times to take out a Garry idc

[latent halo]

I'll die 0 times 💪

[modern rampart]

That's pretty bad though

that's not good.

[latent halo]

One day I'll survive a battle all game

[vocal zephyr]

Kd matters for whag

[vocal zephyr]

Is it

[latent halo]

Ye

[vocal zephyr]

Why

[pliant tide]

Exactly, the game is about objectives, not KD.

[latent halo]

Much dead time

[vocal zephyr]

Did the Garry go down? Is there a ticket count?

[modern rampart]

Yeah

[vocal zephyr]

Why

[modern rampart]

There's two things to remember:

K/D matters a lot

[vocal zephyr]

Before telling ne what matters

[modern rampart]

HLL is the easiest game you can play in this genre.

[vocal zephyr]

Explain why kd matters

[latent halo]

30 death by 10s wait time is 300s alone of waiting to select spawn

[unkempt storm]

so... how about those firing modes

[pliant tide]

we need them.

[latent halo]

And then you need to account the spawn timers

[wooden narwhal]

are you going to send me your screenshots bubba

[vocal zephyr]

Sure the waiting matters but you claim if I kill thirty or more doing so it wouldn't matter?

[wooden narwhal]

i sent you mine minutes ago

[vocal zephyr]

Dying matters yes

Kill to death matterijg not so much

[late obsidian]

I don’t see why people are against the firing modes. If you won’t use it then just don’t use it

[latent halo]

Change is scary

[wooden narwhal]

yea

its not even change

they can keep using full auto until they stop playing

has no impact on them

[late obsidian]

Yea

[latent halo]

Change for others are scary

[wooden narwhal]

its just a QoL feature for those who want it

[next oasis]

Here's my firing mode:
If i want to shoot one round, I press mouse1 once

[latent halo]

Conservative gamers 🤮

[next oasis]

It's really complicated stuff

[wooden narwhal]

not the point

its an oversight that it isnt there

[vocal zephyr]

Firing modes would be nice

[late obsidian]

If this game is going for realism then firing modes are a thing

Can’t just bypass them

[pliant tide]

In a realistic ww2 shooter, you kinda need fire selectors

[vocal zephyr]

True

[late obsidian]

Yea

[latent halo]

This game is not realistic lmao

[wooden narwhal]

an extreme amount of time was spent on vehicles with their gearing, angling, module damage and other things - why skip out on fire selectors?

[next oasis]

No one here is responsible for the devs incompetence on adding such a feature.
In the meantime, if you want to shoot only one round, press 'fire' once. It's not rocket science

[wooden narwhal]

makes no sense

[vocal zephyr]

This game is more realistic than others

[latent halo]

Sure

[late obsidian]

It’s more realistic then like BFV

[next oasis]

It really isn't lol

[latent halo]

That is not a high bar

[modern rampart]

It's not an oversight. It's intentional

[late obsidian]

In some ways

[pliant tide]

Source?

[vocal zephyr]

Sounds like an intentional oversight then

[next oasis]

They'd find a way to screw it up

[vocal zephyr]

Firing modes and free look should be added

[pliant tide]

Free look 😍

[late obsidian]

Yess

[vocal zephyr]

"No one would use it"

Lol

[wooden narwhal]

fire selector bug, your weapon physically cannot fire if you switch kit and change firing mode

[late obsidian]

Free look would help scan while running

[wooden narwhal]

screenshot that post

it will happen

[modern rampart]

Devs love adding meaningless stuff to the game. They would have added it already if it wasn't for spaghetti code probably.

[unkempt storm]

no need to bring spaghetti into this

[latent halo]

All I want is rifle grenades

[vocal zephyr]

That would be nice

[modern rampart]

True, it's kind of an insult to that pasta.

[next oasis]

rifle grenades is probably another silently canned addition

[pliant tide]

It isn’t spaghetti code if there isn’t a melon that can break the whole game if deleted

[wooden narwhal]

are you going to send me your end-game screens or what dude

[sweet cliff]

i shoot more people thus my ideas are better

what a stupid idea

[latent halo]

#off-topic-mess-hall I'll send some of mine

[wooden narwhal]

naw naw

he specifically brought it up alongside another dude that he wanted to see mine because he didn't like the idea

[next oasis]

look how many easily granted kills i got in a 1.5 hour game

yikes!

[wooden narwhal]

and he won't send any in return lol

[next oasis]

Getting high kills isn't impressive in HLL lol

[wooden narwhal]

thats not the point lol

[pliant tide]

To be fair, Crit-

[next oasis]

It's such an easy shooter game

[pliant tide]

You were arguing KD matters.

Choose a side.

[modern rampart]

It's spaghetti code when you look back at how many things can't be implemented/are extremely hard to put in

case in point squad management while you are alive

[vocal zephyr]

Easy shooter game lmao

[modern rampart]

kick people/lock the squad

[wooden narwhal]

the point is that opposing ideas on the basis of K/D and kill counts is silly - especially if you won't send your own after the guy you challenged to do it did so

[next oasis]

KD matters but it isn't difficult to achieve. HLL players are generally pretty sub par in performance

[modern rampart]

Yes

[vocal zephyr]

Compared to what

[wooden narwhal]

i never brought up K/D or anything in relation to asking for it

[latent halo]

KD is fine but spawns are all that matters imo

[sweet cliff]

well whoever brought it up it's a dumb idea

[wooden narwhal]

I completely agree

[modern rampart]

Every other game within its genre and other games not in the genre

[pliant tide]

Critical Fail brought it up.

[vocal zephyr]

Ehh

I'd disagree

[unkempt storm]

i do not care enough either way lol

[latent halo]

If you dont get the spawn along with the enemy then killing them doesnt matter

[unkempt storm]

and I would never care enough to take a screenshot

[wooden narwhal]

yikes

[latent halo]

Never has good games ^^

[wooden narwhal]

sounds like someone's backing out

[pliant tide]

True

Gotta take out those harries

garries*

[unkempt storm]

i never said anything to send me anything, lmao

[next oasis]

Killing them still matters, because that directly prevents that target from doing what they ought to be doing

[sweet cliff]

I specifically mean that if my KD is higher my ideas are better is a stupid concept

[wooden narwhal]

.

ight

[unkempt storm]

critical 🧂 , not you

[sweet cliff]

You win the game by capping points, you cap points by having more cap weight than the enemy, you have more cap weight than the enemy by killing them, you sustain having more cap weight than them by destroying their spawns

[wooden narwhal]

💀

[unkempt storm]

you are not my babe

[wooden narwhal]

damn

[unkempt storm]

dont get it twisted

[wooden narwhal]

wish i was

[latent halo]

Do you?

[modern rampart]

But I feel differently

this game is much deeper. Firing switch would add even more depth

[sweet cliff]

killing people is generally the pre-requisite to doing the other thing that you need to do (build or destroy a spawn) which is what really matters

[latent halo]

So what I'm getting is full offence no defence

[pliant tide]

True, killing does feel good?

.*

[vocal zephyr]

Tell me how high of a kd do I need to build nodes?

[sweet cliff]

I guess I should amend my statement to, on warfare you win the game by holding the majority of the points

[latent halo]

20

[modern rampart]

No, I feel this game is really realistic and hardcore

[vocal zephyr]

Lmao

[modern rampart]

milsim even you might say

[latent halo]

Not enough civilians

[gloomy grove]

😘

[vocal zephyr]

Ima make it my goal after work to play a game without killing or dying

[wooden narwhal]

Dirlewangering in the distance

[latent halo]

Me as medic before my incompetent teammates force me to get blood on my hands once more

[pliant tide]

Sometimes

I’m just waiting for arma reforger

[modern rampart]

not at all

[pliant tide]

Proper milsim on consoles

[modern rampart]

This game isn't milsim

and it has fooled you if you actually believe this

[gloomy grove]

Easy as commander. Just run a couple blitz tactics

[pliant tide]

Compared to every other console game?

[latent halo]

Hll is pretty arcadey with a realistic coat of paint

[pliant tide]

It is closest thing we have to a milsim

[modern rampart]

Oh, you are on console. Right.

don't worry. It's not harder than BF

[next oasis]

Even speaking relative to what's on console, that doesn't make it something it isn't

[vocal zephyr]

I want to do commander but there's never enough competent sl so I've been doing that

[pliant tide]

I’m not new.

[vocal zephyr]

I'll just Desmond doss it and be medic

[pliant tide]

Based

[modern rampart]

Alright?

[latent halo]

Just realized, how does console use command abilities? Do they have the same arbitrary rotations or can they rotate with joysticks

[unkempt storm]

who's desmond doss? (pls dont take the bait)

[pliant tide]

Joysticks

[latent halo]

War crime guy with loads of kills

[pliant tide]

You. You are Desmond.

[wooden narwhal]

If Doss was a real patriot he would've used a gun

[latent halo]

So you could angle a bombing run exactly how you want?

[wooden narwhal]

All Americans use guns

[unkempt storm]

It's like we are groot

But we stick people with needles

[pliant tide]

#desmondussy

[vocal zephyr]

Lmao

[pliant tide]

Last time I remember, yeah

[vocal zephyr]

Best part about medic

Germany and USA use morphine

Soviets use the power of stalin

[pliant tide]

Good boy pats

[latent halo]

pat

[vocal zephyr]

And their smoke grenades are just candles lmao

"Get up or you go to gulag"

[latent halo]

"You're faking it comrade the bullet missed"

[pliant tide]

gets decimated by AT “don’t worry comrade, is just graze.”

[vocal zephyr]

I haven't used an at gun yet

Hmm
