Why not just keep expanding WWII 🤷
All the fronts, all the troops.
Oh and nazi zombies in WWII is "reserved" too so can't be that either 
Korea would be a natural next step as well. But I would rather see more WWII fronts as well as early and late war battles.
Yes. Stick with WWII. So much more stuff to be added in, I really don't care about Vietnam.
If you want to play a Vietnam multiplayer shooter, go play Rising Storm 2 or that Vietnam mod for Squad.
Let HLL be WW2 for quite a while longer.
Imagine of HLL had every major battle with period correct units and equipment. From in invasion of Poland to the battle of Berlin and Okinawa
I don't really care that much about really early war but some of those famous battles deserve to be explored, including the Pacific front. Also big and resounding yes to the period correct uniforms/units and equipment.
@rare sparrow what do you mean a list?
There is a list of spawns to the right of the map on the spawn screen.
However, it doesn't "solve" the issue of having your squad's OP blocked by the others.
I would still like to be able to see allied placements though
Same
should be a simple enough QOL fix anyway. your squads OP always on top
You'd think
Nazi Zombies with HLL mechanics.
How long are matches? I only have around an hour to play usually, and don't want to be abandoning my team half-way through the match.
Can range from being done within 20 min to a full 1.5 hours
Nice. 1.5 hours isn't too long, I should be fine. Thanks
Would it be a good idea is bayonets were introduced to the game? It could drive up the playtime of the rifleman class, it would be historically accurate, and at anytime, you could detach the bayonet use it as a separate melee weapon.
I have a solid 12.3 hours ingame!
If anyone wants to benefit from my vast experience, let me know.
well done sir
is it me or do some people take seeding games too seriously? I was in a server with around 20 people and this one guy on my team wanted to win so badly plus he was getting super mad for no reason and cussing at the commander who was just chilling lmao i thought games actually started when you have at least min 20 people on each side?
Depends on the server rules.
is this game crossplay with cross squad invites?
It's cross play between Xbox and PS, not between console and PC and PC has no party system
You can join off people on your friends list though if they're in a server
Agree. I'd rather see expansion on WW2. However, none of the Vietnam themed alternatives are available on platforms other than PC. If/when Squad comes to console, I'd agree with that too.
Yo if I got on in like an hour could someone show me the ropes?
Select PC by clicking on the XBOX emoji below🤔
Bro what?
dont mind me mate just trying to crack that code
Ah ok
Anyone here play Hell Let Loose?
Just a hunch. I didn't mean to imply anything by it.
I picked it up recently and in my opinion it's not as fun as squad
Different game albeit but yeah
I Think it just takes getting used to. At first i didn't like it.. now im addicted to it haha
yo, brand new player, usually blay battlefield, how can i squad up with some ppl?
Check the Looking for Unit channels.
Otherwise, try your luck in the game.
Honestly, is it weird to consider AT a support role?
No actually
It is kind of an outlier, as it's both entirely practical in offensive or defense
Or necessary rather
Ok, I'm trying medic and can't save anyone. Videos I've watched show a prompt coming up but I never see it.
My LMB is my FWD button, is that the issue?
You need to pull out the inventory item (syringe) and then you need to 'shoot', which is left mouse button, if you've rebound it you need to figure out what you've bound stuff to.
That's the issue. As a medic, I don't have a syringe.
I've played 2 different servers, and I never had a syringe.
I'll try it again...
Hey guys!
What does this even mean?
Basically every role can do something in a support capacity. Every role should be focused on ensuring the enemy team is sat in the respawn screen, and then some of those roles happen to be able to do useful things like drop supplies or build nodes
Is this because they have the stuck at respawn can’t click anything bug? 🥺
Any advantage right? More likely to get the loadout bug too
Make sure you sit within grenade range too, so they might be stuck throwing a grenade for a bit
Yeah! 👺
Is this game available to family share?
@primal violet pretty sure all steam games are
nope
Also god damn I just got the game and I'm so excited to play it
some game developers have it disabled for example: rust
🤔🤔🤔
Problem is viable, but not the solution 
"tell-me-what-to-do-commander" brain
Yo so I am a little confused over something because I have just got the game. So for some reason none of my classes have pistols on them, however my buddies all had them? Is there a way I have to select it or something?
It depends on the class and loadout whether or not they have one
Certain classes require grinding the role to unlock pistols in them, among other things as part of alternate kits.
Thanks
The kit denominations are Class Levels 3, 6, and 9 for unlocks.
If you're on PC you can go to the barracks and click on the different loadouts
Although, it may not let you without unlocking them first.
Nah on PC you can definitely click on locked loadouts
Unless I have just totally forgotten
One moment.
I just confirmed that on PC in the barracks you can mouse over (but not click on) a locked loadout and see what it has.
No such joy on console 😂
You can't mouse over in any way?
Well controller over but you know what I mean, no clue how the console UI works
Apparently not. I'll double check later though.
K. found the morphine. And DAMN do i feel good..
Any tips on how the Tank system works?
Checked again, definitely can't see unlocked loadouts.
What should I do when starting the game? Do I just hop in a match or is there a tutorial/tutorial video I should do or watch first?
Check the pins in here, there's no in game tutorial
But read the new players guide at least
Cool, will do! 👍
Also, can I join any available server? Some of them look clan specific and I don't want to mess up anyone's game.
Anything that isn't password specific is fair game
in fact you're not guaranteed, but there's a good chance you'll have a better experience on a community server with active admins.
Nice, bout to join my first game now
Best of luck mate. Keep your head low and follow orders n you might just last 5 minutes
did they change how crew kills work in tanks?
You've (to my knowledge) never been able to kill crew inside a vehicle, are you thinking of Post Scriptum?
no...
when a gunner shot a guy and he blew up the entire crew used to get the kill
ok yea
If you're dismounted repairing or something the score isn't shared.
maybe it was just a glitch
The kill is shared by anyone else in the vehicle. Back in the old days, only the gunner got the kills. The driver and spotter missed out.
Man do any of you guys get together and play?
Nope, kinda hard when apparently im apart of the %1 of the gaming community, that can only really play on aussie servers
BECAUSE AUSTRALIA DOESN'T EXIST
:D
True
I've played with Drewdrew before. We met fortuitously one day. He was commander and I wasted all of his munitions as artillery
“This is my story”
Trivia time: Australia has a number of hilarious location names.
For instance, Mount Coom and Glory Hole Cave.
Newfoundland got some good ones too. Some I cannot type thanks to the friendly automod filters 👀
Is waiting in queues a good option? Most servers I can see are either Full or Empty, and the ones between don't use english
Depends on your region, if you can get into a server with ~40 people on it and it isn't an off time for your region it should fill quickly.
Off hours for any region it's challenging.
If you can find a server during peak hours with at least 20 people, it'll fill within 10-15 minutes, guaranteed.
I found a server with 50 people and it quickly filled to 90-ish
If you're playing in EU (just a guess based off your language statement), any region will start struggling when it gets late, especially during the week.
You can honestly play this game with like 150-200 ping in other regions and it's not really that bad. The netcode is so poor that you won't even really notice
I've hopped on German and Finnish servers late at night and the game felt almost exactly the same
Don’t you diss my netcode
Howlong

There's just a few local to me 🤣
@zealous hedge
@dawn widget
We’re can I tryout for recon shit?
Oh I gotcha.
You gotta join the unit not he discord
Hold on.
MOYSTON LOL

who tryna play?
where do i buy the game? is it not available on steam anymore?
It's probably just steam maintenance, give it awhile.
what country do you live in
I can assure you, that Team 17 has not decided to stop selling HLL after spending millions and millions of pounds on it.
i believe you but...i was choosing between this game and gtfo and this is unfortunate
maybe in a few months. peace out
what is dead may never die
Hey everyone
Hey Guzzo
question - does the commend xp bonus affect the class xp as well?
Negative
Except in Russia & Belarus.
Well yeah I meant everywhere else though
Hello all
I got a series s and HLL yesterday. I'm having some major troubles. Every match I've played my game will get to where I'm running around and every other player is carrying on in whatever motion they were doing. I won't realize my game is going to crap until either someone is running straight into a wall and essentially running into place of a machine gun just keeps firing beyond reload. Is this a typical issue on Xbox?
I had my never speed upgraded to 200 up and 10 down this morning. I wonder if that'll help
That sounds like a network issue to me, if you can connect your xbox over a wired connection instead of wireless that would be better.
If you hit #readme-rules you can select a console role and see console chat they might have a better idea.
Thanks. I can't run an Ethernet cord to my machine tho. I do have a wifi booster plugged in and a cord from that to my Xbox. Helped me a lot for DayZ on my old Xbox One
If I wanted to run a cable I'd have to go through the floor into the basement then up into my game room lol
Couldn't have a 100 foot cable just running along the house then across the floor to my game room
Lemon, I use the tp-link power line adapters / extended. My series x is in my log cabin at the bottom of my garden, which is at least 70ft from my house so no way running an Ethernet cable that length and outside. By using the power line adapter I can just use the good old plug socket. Base unit indoors which is paired to the adapter in my cabin. I then have an Ethernet cable running from that into my Xbox. I use wi-fi for my Tv for Netflix, etc and my sound bar but gaming using cable in case my wi-fi signal drops. Been using these for years and they work a treat. Always worth a look 🙂
I’m sure you’ve found it to be working now.
Steam had a heart attack last night for a lot of people, it wasn’t just HLL it was 75% of the whole steam store where games weren’t buyable
I know big shocker lol
It was strange tho bc certain games that were effected the dlc wasn’t
Idk too much about it
But I do know that steam employees are a different breed of thing all together
Hello everyone, how do I recognize an enemy outpost or garrison from the map?
triangle - outpost , circle - garrison
Hey everyone new to the game, I thought that people all voice chatted in game and didnt hear anyone did I just join a quiet server or do I need to do something to hear everyone?
Also new, I think there was a problem with voice chat last night
I've only played 5hrs but some squads seem chattier than others
It varies. If you’re playing on PC though you can ask your squad in the text chat if they can hear you or if they’re talking.
Hello who is down to play?
Is it normal for my squad to be scattered across hell's half acre? I'd like to stick with the green dots but they're freaking everywhere
If you guys are not in a voice chat together then yes
I’m new as well but I already know you got to get a group of people that you know to play together
If you are down to play rn @amber wasp let me know
play HLL or study for a test...what to do
Studying for the test will let you retire years earlier and devote your days to VR 20,000 player HLL
lol that's some solid advice
I'm Kick_McCann in game so if you see someone flailing and wtf-ing that would be me
uhh can you rebind buttons to the numberpad ?
Getting tired of no comms on public matches, looking to join up in a regiment if anyone is looking for a new guy
Hey guys 🙂
Hiya fellow FNG
I guess this is the right place for this, I'm new to the game, had a few matches and have been finding my feet with it so probably not much use. Really enjoying it so far though and keen to meet some people to play with on a regular ish basis, work/life permitting etc. I'm UK based
One of my big problems besides playing like ass is that after the first death or so I never find my unit again. At least not all together
It takes a certain amount of discipline for a unit to all move together, and decent outpost placement by the officer.
New to the game and was wondering if anyone played on Xbox? That would also be willing to show me the ropes?
Hit #readme-rules and select a console role you'll see the console channels
Hey guys
Is it normal to not have a clue what is going on most of the time, and then to go knee deep into tactical thinking for half a game and then realize the lines have left you behind and there's nobody near you?
Like, I can't tell if the enemy is in the next bush or half a kilometre away
It sounds like the bullets are whizzing past my head no matter where we are
@karmic rose at first yes, once you play enough you will know where garrisons/ outposts are without even seeing them or hearing them
Feel free to to DM me anyone if you need people to play with and teach you how to play the game!
I started my first game. There was a total of 6 people. I had no idea wtf to but I’m super interested and want to start playing tactical. Can someone help me
Yeah it happens, always keep an eye on your map and try to plan one step ahead. Sometimes finding yourself in that position can be an advantage because the map conditions are very fluid. So keep an eye on what the best paths to the next capture point/strong point are and you may be able to capitalize on being far out on the map by setting yourself and your squad up at a choke point.
For example if there's a clearing between point 1 and point 2 and that looks like the best way for enemy to drive vehicles or run support up through to the next capture point, and you find a building, maybe set up an outpost around that area and consider setting up if the enemy is on the way forward. You and your squad could then either hold or move on and use that as a rally point so even if you get killed you'll spawn back somewhere that you're likely to have an advantage
Honestly, I've never known a game that wishes to help noobs like us so much. I have found a lot of help on Youtube as well, I'm doing my best. People in game are also super helpful, I'm only level 11 but I'm trying my best! 🙂

Whats going on with the console version of this game?
I haven’t seen any updates patches or fixes, most games the vehicles are unusable
We’re expecting a patch before summer, a big one. Are you Xbox or PS5? Check out the roles in #readme-rules for access to the console channels. We say
a lot.
Okay thanks I play on xbox.
I don't expect the next update / patch to actually fix the server latency issues. I've only experienced game breaking latency correction (rubber banding) once in 500+ hours, but that's on Oceania servers, other people's experience may vary.
Does anyone know if the Russian forces are on console?
I believe I saw a video on them
Not yet
I believe the current schedule is consoles are supposed to get the next patch at the same time as PC players which would include the eastern front content.
Alright just wondering cause I really enjoyed the hour I played on pc before it went kaput
Rip
is there a way to swap roles on an empty server? i wanna try out the recoil and whatnot on the different weapons.
no to select anything but one of the commander or squad lead roles you need another person
you can try to find a server that is seeding (starting from an empty server and filling it with enough people it fills itself organically)
Hey all! new to the game, been watching strategy videos and would like to join a squad! I'm on PC if anyone wants to play lmk
hey man, shoot me a message sometime and we can find a time to play!
I've been building garrisons every game, usually topping 6-8 in most games. Does building garrisons give my officer points toward any attribute? It feels like a selfless role that no one cares about until there are no more spawns on the map
You get points every time someone spawns on them.
Does the same go for outposts?
Yep
Yeah you'll get support points for both, you'll get more for a popular garrison of course because the whole team can spawn on it
Hi I just got the game brand new and I wanna play with a squad I’m on Xbox
Yo anybody down to play on PC?
New on of, no idea what I’m doing. Have 360 ish hours in squad tho
someone on HLL pm me
hi can anyone help me with this game on PC? servers never show up when i try to get into the game, i have been waiting for a fix for this but i dont see one ever came through.
i have tried all posts on the steam discussion boards and none have worked
are you on the test environment
I am not on test environment
@cinder sonnet - have you gone into Steam and changed your In-Game Ping setting to 5000 but nothing Automatic?
@plush seal
Uninstalled and reinstalled and it worked. Thanks!
Any reason why Omaha Beach is not in the map rotation for South America Servers?
Or does this happen on every official server?
Omaha doesn’t have a warfare variant, only offensive, so it depends on whatever mode the server is on/runs
But it’s not systematically excluded on official servers
I....I did this and I'm not sure how, at least it made for a great turret.
jsut got the game today, anything I need to know when picking a server/playing the first game
Read the new players guide it's pinned in here.
oh yea i read that already
But other than that just look for a server with a good ping for your region, it'll be easier to get into a server that has say 60-80 people in it and those will still fill up quickly if it isn't off times for your region
Id recommend playing on community servers rather than official ones
got it thanks!
And don't feel bad about bouncing between squads or servers if you run into rude people
read the field manual in game
hey anyone wanna squad up? fng here, same nickname on steam
New guy looking for a unit on PC
would anyone like to play hll?
Hello everyone I've been after a good wwii fps for a fair bit. my favorite has to be BF1942. Im considering buying this game but im worried about the complexity. I basically just want to run and gun. i dont want to deal with stuff like building FOBs as can be seen in post scriptum and squad. what does this game offer in this scope? i see on steam about a RTS style metagame, that's where my worries lie
is there a demo or something?
oh theres also in game voip, i see
You dont have to build FOBs, others will do it for you
@livid reef You can purchase Hell let loose on Steam and have a 2 hour window to refund if the game is not for you. We have New DLC /Map releasing soon.
i dont understand the ROFL reaction,, it was a serious question. the 2 hour windows could be a good idea not sure tho
its a big purchase for me so id rather not buy it only to wait a few days for a refund if i wheren't to like it
Hey @livid reef I'm a relatively new player myself and had some of the same reservations before I took the plunge. I think the game can be as complex as you want it to be. If you're not into the building etc you can avoid those roles and play as a combat infantry class. However it is important (and to be honest pretty fun) to be communicative and work with your squad. So running and gunning is an acceptable way to play but you'd be encouraged to do that while following the SL orders
Run and gun where you're asked/needed to and it should be sweet
alright yh i could probably get into that

Overview of Rol...
The 🤣 reaction is likely because the game advertises itself as being those things but ultimately it plays as a run and gun shooter for the majority of players.
There is no "RTS style meta" "hardcore" "tactical" etc. Those descriptors might have suited the original vision of HLL but the current game is not that.
Yup. New owners dumbed down too much and left other stuff broken. They got their console cash grab and went on permanent vacation. Some easy meta tweaks but they abandoned any smart improvements. For example: spawn camping HQs like COD? Easy fix: set no-go zones like offensive mode. Lots of watered down silliness to appease the console crowd and grab cash.
Hello, I'm a new player and I saw some footage from the alpha of the game where there seems to be a different mode where every 2X2 square is it's own sector with it's own cap point, like some sort of territorial conquest mode.
What happened to this mode? Why is it gone? Is it ever coming back, and if it is, then when? I would like to try it out.
Its not T17 that did this. The game changed pretty dramatically from the KS description in the first few updates. Well before T17 got involved. Those issues you are describing have existed since day 1.
You partially correct. Yes, several changes occurred throughout early access and many technical issues never got resolved. Team 17 becomes the new boss and didn't fix anything and has slowed down patches/fixes except for their console side hustle.
Yes, the original design had maps that were 5 x 5 active sectors. They were unfortunately too big for 100 player matches and since then all HLL maps have been 3 x 5. I think it would be cool if they activated all the sectors again like the old mode, but kept the maps at 3 x 5. I think it could work now that we have transport trucks and half-tracks.
Thanks for letting me know, but do you know if the developers are currently planning on bringing it back in a smaller map or have they just abandoned the idea completely?
For sure. I just don't blame T17 for any of the design choices. BM altered the broad vision of the game early on and T17 has had no impact on that, except for the console focus and change in schedule. My point is "RTS based meta" goes back to the alpha and kick starter and hasn't been an accurate description of the game for a long time.
Your guess is as good as mine. Like I said I would love to see it brought back in some form. The devs have been more focused on pushing out content than tweaking gameplay and meta. Idk if they would make this change at this point
Yup, but I blame Team 17 for not righting the ship. NFTs and the consoles, nuff said. Early access community that made it popular got left behind.
i would deinstall if they bring nfts into this, nft's are a disgusting innovation
I would definitely deinstall if they brought MilkyWay@home into this, that one is a good program but putting it onto our consoles without consent would not be ok
Is there any plan to add experimental weapons like the bullpup garand to consoel (
&
) ?
Looks cool, hopefully it's added with U12
My eyes 💀
Bullpup Garand isn’t real, it can’t hurt you.
Bullpup Garand:
Whoever made that should be court marshalled and summarily excecuted
is there a community to help people learn the game?
You can try: #pc-looking-for-unit or #pc-divisions-recruitment Ensure you join on a community server and tell them you’re a new player.
Thanks!

Overview of Rol...
I see the game is on sale and I'm considering picking it up. How heavily is squad-play emphasized here? How much control do officers have over other players?
Very squad based. Takes a combined team effort to win. Officers are responsible for spawns and will micro manage their squad for a number of tasks. It’s best to play a minor role to begin with and join a squad with good comms that follow orders.
If my subordinates pick their nose, I know about it
That's what I'm looking for! I'll give it a shot
What about your Superiors?
Have none…
getting on a server is really annoying, why is there a 6 man queue if there are 75 ppl playing
Just bought this game yesterday and played a couple of hours last night. Well, I got my ass handed to me alright. Followed a load of teammates around in a squad that were the only ones talking. Played as medic and revived a few people in the thick of the action. Got shot plenty of times from out of nowhere! Next game took a ride in a tank on my own, parked it in the middle of the enemy base and got 6+ kills in a row. Very impressed by this game, the whole feels is awesome, particurlalry storming Omaha beach with smoke grenades going off everywhere. I wasn't expecting the game to be this punishing though for beginners though.
Worth looking here for some HLL video guides: #hll-guides and #hll-videos
Match just ended is most likely. Can't join during the end screen
May 17th
We're getting the update
oh acc thx a lot
Honestly prob wont be playing the soviets cus the nagant is not semi-auto and im too bad of a player to use that
thats y i have to quit when i matchamke on the germans
#readme-rules select a console role read the console telegram
has anyone got like an XP crib sheet, ie if you do this you get x XP, build this you get y XP etc?
btw do u recommend i use the m2 carbine or m1 garand cus i have both loadouts
M2. Better in most ways than the garand
oh ok thx
I prefer the Garand, best weapon in the game
Nah, the Thompson
Hi

Hi I’m new, should I always play as medic and rush the enemy?

Medic is best played following the majority of your teammates your main focus is to keep everyone alive and pick them back up if they get shot, so that the assault can continue. If your pushing alone as a Medic to get kills then your doing it wrong and should just play Assualt or Rifle man.
Hi there! can someone pls show me the ins and outs of this game? I don't mind staying behind and healing and so on
@strange glen @winged sundial check the pinned resources in here then just hop into games
Hey, just downloaded the game and was wondering about any quick tips someone could give me before I hop into my first game?
same^^
Check the pinned resources in here.
@fluid oxide @upper elm Start with a basic role and find a squad that communicates. Take time to move and keep an eye on your tactical map. HLL rewards patience and thinking.
ya i think one thing you need to know is that its fine if u die a lot since thats a HUGE part of the game
is there a place where i can find a group of people to just play casually with, communicate and play the game properly but just for fun? all the division recruitment looks quite serious
You just have to find the right division, there are plenty that emphasise fun and comms or just keep their competitive roster separate. Playing properly is virtually guaranteed with a clan.
ah right, i'll have a look thanks
Quick question, I have a GTX750Ti. Will I be able to play the game at a comfortable graphics?(60 fps, nothing hindering target acquisition at 1080)
As for CPU, I have a Ryzen 7 2700. Bottleneck I know lol
Is that better or worse than a 960 which is the steam advertised minimum?
There's a 2 hour refund window you can always try
It is worse than a 960 unfortunately
I wouldn't count on it working then, but you can buy and see what kind of performance you get
Damn, Thanks anyways!
Guys I was wondering, what is the name of the Soviet Artillery howitzer?
Why does an enemy garrison that's placed in my HQ territory also take 2 min to take down instead of the normal 10 sec? I know locked enemy territory takes longer but this is odd.
You answered your own question lol
I don't see how?
The guides Jaguar linked will certainly help you learn the game more. Some streamers like myself also dedicate our livestreams to teaching HLL to new players. Hopefully that will help you too 🙂
Them Zombies Vibes 🧟♂️
Keep your drama with certain HLL Communities out of the Discord. This isn't a place for witch-hunting or dirty laundry.
That is recieved, and I apologize for the post and my momentarily lapse of judgement after feeling unfairly treated 🙂
@lean orchid why did hellletloose have no nazi flag? 🤔
Seems fair.
If you're asking why the game doesn't have any Nazi insignias right now, I'm not sure. The devs said some time ago they would release an update that would include this content for historical accuracy (while carefully making sure to censor it in countries where it was illegal).
That was 1.5-2 years ago, and we haven't heard much on the subject since.
Oh understood I asked cause black ops 1 has the nazi flag and I was just wondering why this game didn't have it but thanks for the information 👍
https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/dan-carlins-hardcore-history-addendum/id1326393257?i=1000530819687
I believe this topic is discussed a bit in this podcast.
any news on when next update will be out or should we just expect june-ish? 🙂
No exact date. Hoping for Mid-June myself.
As a new recruit about to start his first game today, any tips? Must have's and whatnot? I've watched a good bit of video and read up on stuff. Think I have some of the basic knowledge down...probably wrong 😂
im fairly new too, played a couple days worth with a friend, take it slow, watch for movement and oddities in the terrain, double tap enemies if youre not sure, artillery is very scary, mgs are even more scary
its harder to spot a stationary target but muzzle flashes will hopefully give them away
You're going to die a lot. So don't get frustrated. It takes a bit to learn the ways. Also have a mic. It will help a ton
I was looking at the roles and anti tank and machine gunner seem interesting, but would it be better to be a rifleman to begin with?
Wouldn't recommend it.
You can be just as effective using other classes while also doing "rifleman" things.
im new to the game and i was wondering dose it matter what server i join?
wym?
just look for low ping and join away
always remember the guy who moves first in a firefight usually dies first lol especially on these wooded maps. camp away
getting kind of sick of aimbots and getting shot through walls. is there movement on this from the prevention side of things?
If there is proof, then yes, we do react to this.
Can you expand on reacting? is this on a person by person basis
im talking about this stuff
if your reaction consists of individual bans, Its unlikely that people are going to be able to provide evidence to support this
do bombing runs damage any tanks?
Usually it takes a tip off to an admin with admin cam. The admin will record and follow an accused player to confirm any banned exploits. My ph is on about 1% now so I can’t watch the above video but will check it out later when I get home.
Thats not a good enough prevention tool imo.
this isn't the first time that desperate-for-clicks youtube channel has been brought up here.
idk if you know but the guy that makes these vids at one point was convinced that "1 of every 7 HLL players are cheating".
Im love playing this game, but when one guy on the enemy team can headshot me and my squad in 2 seconds with a machine gun while were in cover, im not wanting to participate in that many steps.. Its not at all unreasonable to expect there to be a report button that is more accessible that performs that function.
I didnt really listen to him , and i dont have to. pretty definitive when there is video evidence of it happening, and i see it happend with my own eyes
One thing you ought to know about HLL is how absolutely easy it is to kill (down) targets. The shooting is incredibly simplistic alongside the fact that it usually takes only 1 bullet to down a target, regardless of where your round lands
if a guy is walking around with the machine gun, and can headshot 3 of us from ages away, in a matter of seconds, that is conclusive.
those guns have insufficient accuracy to accomplish that feat normally
It isn't impossible.
discredit/disregard the video as "desperate for clicks" if you will. but people will leave your game if you continue to ignore people.
Every time we have claims like this, there is never any footage on the accusers end
literally any recording software
how am i, a regular user supposed to cap that for you
nvidia provides one
their screen?
This is pointless. I have made my concerns known. Its not my responsiblilty to make sure the game is being played the way it is intended to be played. If you are not going to make this (reporting) an intuitive and accessible process, you arent serious about prevention and you are going to hemorrhage players as soon as another game comes up that will.
Are you also aware that there is a "Nemesis" tracker on the in-game scoreboard?
thanks for your time
lol
I can head shot multiple people with a machine gun in a matter of a minute, heads pop up on trench lines, pow! They are dead, even easier when they are rushing points, if you have powerful graphics and good eyes you can see enemies from a great distance. If there's one gun that's great at a distance it's the machine gun. They have very mild bullet drop, you can even utilise an mp40 at range taking pot shots. It depends on your tracking abilities and having a good eye. When I get hit by a gunner, I praise the shot. I've only come across one hacker in this game, who could shoot through walls. He got kicked by admin.
It’s not hard to get headshots with MG’s (esp MG 42) over 250+ meters at times.
Hello um I'm new to this game on PC
I kinda enjoy the game so far haven't gotten a kill yet lol but it's still enjoyable I'm just anxious talking to people still in the game
As long as you follow orders I think most SL’s will let that slide
Ok
I mean I do follow orders
One time I accidentally became an officer and didn't know what to do lol
Man you came in with the big claims, and had zero proof. Fat rip for you 😂😂😂
If you’re too anxious you can always say you’re new in case you feel you may mess up
Ok
The interactions I’ve had on mic have all been some variant of good lol
Cause I do suffer with social anxiety
That’s understandable
I know a lot of servers say being an officer requires a mic so if you feel you’re too anxious then just gotta stick to the other roles is all
Means you get the bigger guns anyway I suppose 😉
I’ve not actually tried armour or sniping yet, but if you play with some friends at all, it’ll probably be better, spotter will be the most vocal role as it’s more of the tank commander role
Followed by gunner then driver I’d say
If you don't talk in a tank you're doing the entire crew a disservice
Yea I figured
I just heard of solo tank people like getting kills and shit
I was just curious
Well, solo tanks only do well when the enemy team is bad because you can only drive see or shoot, 2 of those 3 are always missing
Ah ok
For any newcomers who are playing the Medic role, check out my new Ultimate Medic Guide: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DaA3eoLj_0E
Lots of negativity around this role lately, but if you use the strategies outlined in my video, and learn to read how the game is playing out and determine whether or not medic will be useful in each situation, it can be an impactful role.
This might sound dumb but i’m having a hard time seeing where my unit is on the deploy screen
Sorry if this is the wrong place for it but because it’s on sale I want to check if recommended hardware gives 60fps. Anyone have a 6GB 1060 and can let me know if you can get solid 60fps and what quality it is to get it. Not worried about CPU bottleneck. Please @ me if you reply and thanks for your time. Have a good day.
My old card was a 1080 and I was barely getting 60fps
Was that in low quality settings?
There's a 2 hour refund window you can test it. I'd recommend carentan
Hello i am new to the game looking for a group or squad to join as i learn the ropes
Hey all. Looking to have a few pints and learn the ropes. New to the game but experienced fps. EST time zone
Oh, it is here you type,
New to the game and looking for a helping hand to show me the game
yes noobs unite
Soo, a squad of 3 noobs can beat the game?
im down to try ill be in vc
can someone explain how pings work in this game? like who can see what etc
only people in your squad can see your pings
quick question, does this game have some kind of battle pass thing that's "pay to progress" or whatever
no
okay cool ty, i saw that the dlcs are entirely cosmetic, and was just wondering if there was any sort of p2w feature like in many other games of this type
yeah its all cosmetic to support the devs if you like the game
dope tyty
this is my first simulator-esque game after 10 years of cod/battlefield
its so hard lol
also good comms hard to come across
Yo any other newbies want to squad up? I'm fresh. hmu
hello
yeah lets go
i need people to play with
@dawn widget yeah same here im looking for ppl to play with
wanna see if we cant get like four or so people together for a squad? theres already you and me
Heck yeah!
awesome!
Im on ps5 but no problem with crossplay.
pc and consoles aren't compatible
Noooooo
hi, fng here, looking foward to squad up
Anyone down to play im a level 5 here
sure man im kinda new 010000001
anyone want to play
SURE
Whyyyy the hellll Does my game fail to loadddd !!!!!!!!!!!!
or crashhhh
due to the anuticheat ;=-;
MY damn game is not workin g
PLEASE CAN SOMEONE AASSIST
EITHER IT CRASHED DUE TO ANTYICHEAT
OR IT JUST DOESNT LAUCH AT ALL
omg this is the 5th refere to this channel responsae
Well I found the answer to your problem in there within 1 minute of searching, so perhaps a looksee in there may be of benefit.
Can anyone definitively tell me how the artillery dispersion works? Is it just random on each axis, or some kind of normal distribution? i.e. are shots closer to target more probable than shots farther away? (images from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circular_error_probable)
Are they going to change the scopes back to how they were? The current scope is making me go back to ww2 because of how old this method is. I tried looking around but couldn't find anything other than people ranting on reddit back in 2021. Any info?
Keen to join a squad
As far as I understand, it’s completely random within 20m
That's what I figured, disappointing if true.
Is this the place to find a squad to play with?
Is there a damage chart for small arms?
@nocturne pasture
OHD = One-hit down
"Rifles" (M1 Garand, G43, SVT, K98, other bolt-actions) OHD up to 200m, +1 if past 200m
"Automatic rifles" (FG42, BAR, STG) OHD up to 100m, +1 if past 100m
"SMGs" (MP40, Thompson) take two hits until 75m, and three hits if all past 75m
M1 Carbine OHD up to 50m, +1 if past 50m.
This is all there is to know about the weapons.
This is what HLLs hitboxes look like:
Yo any other newbies want to squad up? I'm fresh. Hmu so that we can play later.
Do MG’s have the same damage as rifles or auto rifles?
Also im suprised the fg42 and stg44 have the same damage
@Glow#0777 I was told to join your discord server or page or something, is there a link?
Thanks NoodleArms
did you feel silly saying that
For the record its just discord.gg/glows (for future reference)
So I heard they adding the pacific theater in the future, that true?
Yep
emphasis on future
What time does the Soviet update come out tomorrow?
is there a FAQ/general overview video for new players? Generally have a harder time learning complex games so I wanna get a head start
Counter intuitive that automatic rifles FG42 and BAR with same calibre as Kar and Garand respectively, but less effective OHD range.
12pm bst
you really dont know what youre asking for
automatic rifles OHDing at 200m
big YIKES
Yes, I do. They would need to counterbalance with fewer automatic weapons.
it's already OP at 100m, 200m would be comically so
Mouse aim is also comically accurate, let's make everyone use a controller </facetious>
Increase sway, unless prone, or weapon rested.
HLL is a shooter fit for console
But really, there are far too many automatics, perhaps one or two SMG, and AR per 6-12 people, rather than the potential for every damn player on the match having one.
That just wouldn't be popular with enough of the player base.
pin point accurate weaponry (all weapons) combined with mouse aim, simplistic hitboxes, and excessively "strong" weapon damage models does not make a good shooter
HLL is all of that
and given such, it is much more fitting to be played on consoles, with a controller
it's a console shooter
Gotta say, I agree with this.
You take this back right now
If it's any consolation, it's much prettier on PC. Despite the console output being 4K, the textures look scaled / compressed (lossy) in comparison.
I’ll accept the consolation, although it does not right your wrong
hey lads
havent played the game yet but i'm excited to hop in
im hoping for a bit of a gritty siim feel like RO2?
update: it does indeed feel like ro2, though a bit slower paced with the big maps
very good
I just tried hell let loose for the first time and I LOVED IT, super proud of the work the developers made in this game
Lots of walking simulator but surprisingly I'm ok with that
Only WW2 could convince me this experience is a game worth playing XD
Thats a symptom of a team not managing spawns properly. RO you could always at least depend on the objective spawns
So it doesn't have to be a walking sim but it is sometimes
For now I don't mind walking because it helps me learn the maps
Used to be worse
There used to be no trucks lol
But on the plus side it doesn't have the RO spawn mechanic where the SL has to hide in a bush or corner so they can keep spawning people
Kinda not having a great time with this. I've been playing most of the day and literally don't know where I'm getting shot from and haven't seen a single enemy with my own eyes. Idk if I'm missing something from the gameplay loop or what
it's kind of all about finding a good squad with a good squad leader who are all communicating. Which is unfortunately fairly rare if you're just joining a random server
It can be like that a good chunk of the time, especially if you drop in the middle of a match on a heavily contested point. As above, communication is key, don't be afraid to ask where you're needed. Personally I've had some great games on random servers. I've found that if you start calling things out and being vocal it can help the rest of the squad follow suit. Failing that watch where everyone else is pointing their guns 😉 hope you find your feet with it
I'm sooooooo happy they added them 😛 you'd always spend the first 5-6 minutes just getting to the middle cap xD
My solution to this problem is to walk around behind the enemy for twenty minutes to flank them instead of trying to fight head on
first day playing and its incredible, cant wait to see changes and updates as they come overtime, but the state of the game seems great!
If anyone is looking to show a new guy the ropes later when I get home from work send me a DM I’m US eastern
I have a question, when is like the point that you start understanding the game. How many hours? Im still getting shot from all sides and can't seem to spot the people shooting me.
Depends on the person
Oh ok
I’m pretty new, but I can tell you this isn’t your typical shooter. It’s a lot of move, take cover, check surroundings then move again. I’ve also learned to check ALL corners and lay down when being shot at
Thank you very much I will use these tips to improve!
From personal experience: improve by level 20. Really get the hang of things around level 40. Feel pretty confident in just about every role around lvl 75 and ‘good’ at most of it from lvl 100. I’m now lvl 130 and still learn new things often enough. But I have also seen people lvl 100+ getting the basics wrong, so 🤷♂️
Again thank you guys very much this is a really great community!
I have over 300 hrs and I just learned you can underhand grenades yesterday
Just got the game a few days back and played a fair bit. Was curious if anyone knows whether or not there are any future plans to add flamethrowers into the game. Was kind of surprised when I saw they weren’t around.
It’s in the works
Yeah it’s coming
Figured it might be. Any idea on the eta?

They’re focused on a new map rn
Fair enough
And then bri ish is after that
They're on the 2021/2022 roadmap, so unless something changes by the end of the year
I would assume at least
I see
Hell yea. Would be interesting to even see the option for some maps to play either as British or American side by side.
Why would that be a thing?
All of the current maps only had US troops fighting in the area
Brits/Commonwealth are gonna get their own maps.
They will probably do Southern France and North Africa
I mean in the future on maps that historically had both sides, for example
Any examples?
Rumour has it that the maps will be set during Market Garden, Falaise Pocket and possibly North Africa
I’ll be shocked if they don’t do North Africa
if we are lucky we will get a mix of Western European and North African maps
I’d have to bust out the history books again, it’s been a while
It will probably be market garden and El Alamein
With the way things are working all the new maps will only feature British troops
Adding Italy and the invasion of Sicily would be interesting too
or rather Commonwealth troops
If it’s just two maps like the Russian update
Sicily was an American campaign tho right?
depends who you ask 😄
the most recent information we got on the British expansion is that it will feature Commonwealth troops, so Brits, Canadians and ANZAC forces
There is a chance the Brit expansion will be paid for, so it will likely launch with more than just two maps.
Yeah so north africa
Oh good point
I hadn’t thought of that
Watch them add gold and sword
And that’s it
Haven’t found a single eastern front game
They also don’t want to split the playerbase with the expansions, e.g. limiting lobbies according to which maps / factions someone owns. So I can see expansion access to everyone, but very limited for those who don’t pay (can only play certain classes / loadouts?
That is exactly what I have been thinking. Everybody will be able to play the content but will have limited access to uniforms and loadouts, if you don't buy it.
British update is slated to arrive by year end
I remember one of the more recent CoD / BF’s split player base with expansions. Killed the game.
Yeah, BM/T17 are probably smarter than that and they have said multiple times that they don't plan to split the playerbase.
Battlefield abandoned paid DLC with BF V
Must have been BF1. Even then I’m not sure if DLC separation was permanent, but the damage was done already
What happened to the Iron Vanguard DLC for PS5? The Tanker and rolled-sleeves one? Couldn't find it on psn. 🤔
Just found the 3 new ones
They ditched it (and a couple of others) due to sensitivities with Russia situation
BF 1 was the last one with paid DLC yes
Awww...thank you
“We don’t want to profit from this update in the current climate” so I presume they will be available at some distant future time
Not sure if that is the actual reason tbh. They also made abundantly clear that the current conflict has nothing to do with the conflict between the USSR and Germany in their official statement.
Thank you for the quick reply.😄 👍
I can’t see any other reason to ditch them. They’re talking about not profiting from this specific update, which is different to providing free USSR content.
Well...we have three DLC packages still available for purchase on PC, all of them featuring USSR content. Two of them solely being Red Army uniforms, so it would seem quite inconsistent to remove those on consoles, wouldn't it?
As I said, I am inclined to believe there is a different reason for them not showing up in the respective console stores as of right now.
Does seem odd to keep them on PC. I presume it’s because that was already existing but it’s just arriving on console. Semantics I know, but it makes a difference if it’s covered in a news article. My quote is from their community manager so a reliable source but it’s fair enough if people feel otherwise
Maybe it's just...not ready
Yes, at any rate I don't think console players would have to worry about not getting said cosmetics sooner or later.
Bruh I swear the forest map is so hard to play on
I can barely see the enemy and in that time I get shot at
find spot with low visibility and close to the enemy
become one with the trees
profit
how do I get to the spot without being seen lol
you either get in position before enemy advances or use smoke
i mean u still need some luck but once u there you can do a lot of damage
Any brand new people want to play?
Guys
Are we able to play as the soviet union?
Because I never got in a match as the soviets
If you're on PC yes, if you're on console yes, but you have no server browser so you are up to the whims of the match making
Brrrrruuuh whyyy
Ive been leaving and joining matches for like an hour now
I never got any Russian map
also if you go to #readme-rules you can select a console role and see all the console channels
Oh
Greg is speaking to the team about whether we can increase the percentage of EF in the rotation
Low and slow wins the race, especially if your uniform blends in with the environment, I.e. dark uniform on Hürtgen Forest / Hill 400 and lighter color uniforms on maps like Utah Beach/ Sainte-Mère-Église,etc . This game is a marathon, not a sprint, at least on forest maps
I can’t get in a single new map
I’ve been playing all dam day but I can’t get in a single Soviet map
How could you say something so brave, yet so controversial
How could you butcher a well know meme
Because I can do what I want
Hey yall
I'm a PC player and don't have any friends who play this game. Not particularly good at FPS games either. It just seems really interesting + fun
Is it fairly easy to befriend others if you go into the game solo?
Playing alone feels super meh lol
Yes, or join a clan in #pc-divisions-recruitment
A lot of the players you’ll find could be friendly, or the opposite… I’ve seen both toxic and wholesome people along my soloing games
least helpful message i've read in a while lol
👍 im great at social interactions
lol
I mean, I've had both good and bad, though more good interactions.
I've probably added about 8 or so folks, who I may not play with all the time, but genuinely fun to play with.
Most of the time it's really easy to befriend your squadmates
Second day playing, I absolutely love the experience
Hi, is the grass bug still a thing? I remember a few months/year back the grass was visible for some and not for others, making it unfair.
The grass has been fine for me
It was addressed in the last major patch or two ago, I believe
Thanks a lot, i'll give the game a try again
Hello there, I'm wondering if I should purchase HLL. I'm not sure if my computer is capable of running HLL. I know there is a "System Requirements" section on the Steam, but I'm not sure how I can view that on my PC. (My PC is prebuilt) Could someone help me out with this problem?
you can always purchase on steam and then GeForce Now
just to be sure
Whats, GeForce ?
It is free but you can only play 1 hour at a time. It is basically a gaming service by the graphics company NVIDIA
I do want to buy it, but if I would, and my pc can't handle it. That would be wasting money
Geforce Now is a website
oh okey
you play using the website, there is also an app for better performance, but both mean you don't have to have a great pc to play
I see.. How do I get started?
make an account and if you want install the app for better graphics and performance
DM me if you need any help, but I gtg now
Yes will do, thanks!
That makes no sense though GeForce now uses their hardware and pipes the video to you it tells you nothing about whether your computer can play it or not
You can buy it though and steak has a 2 hour refund window
Also you should be able to see your cpu and gpu by looking at your system properties or just by googling the model of pre-built you have @tired nebula
Steam also offers a refund if you played 2 hours or less (Sometimes more)
You can buy it, if it doesn't run well you can just refund it no questions asked
Lol i didn't read this
Someone mention steak?
Yes gaben makes good steak, forgive my phone typing
Guys i am new on HLL
Where to play if I want to play with players who communicates in english. I am from asia btw
how do i get conscript and enlisted
#readme-rules select a PC role
oh wait you did that
yeah I don't know it doesn't really matter you should see everything that matters with either a PC or console role
its because i dont have the mess hall chat
You don't have access #mess-hall?
no
@lilac turret check now
ive got it now thanks
Does somebody know how to get the winter skins?
wait until winter
is a Christmas event?
hey greek community?
Isn't it four hours
It is in Canada at least...
I think it's 2 hours but I don't know
It’s released seasonally, but doesn’t really follow any season. Just have to wait
it's 2 hours, at least in the US
winter warfare dlc - will probably be available again in december
At least in the US: It doesn't matter. Valve will, upon request via help.steampowered.com, issue a refund for any reason, if the request is made within the required return period, and, in the case of games, if the title has been played for less than two hours.
do supply trucks spawn on their own or cost resources?
1 spawns by default at mid HQ on a timer, when the previous default one is destroyed, additional trucks cost 100 fuel
it is also 2 hours in Canada
source: I am Canadian
Heh...
Did they change that
Because I have definitely refunded games past two hours
as have I, but technically thats not supposed to happen lol
hello
Steam’s usually pretty cool about refunds so long as you give a decent reason or don’t abuse the hell out of it. I beat Kane & Lynch 2 and then got a full refund for it same day 
I also got Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City delisted from the store, wonder if they ever fixed it
yeah check some of the videos and the new player guide pinned in here
Game’s honestly not hard once you learn the basics, just depends on if you’ve played something like this before
Which role should i play
?
Play whatever role you want. Most play pretty much the same in practice, although I'd recommend you get really good with positioning and enjoying seeing the respawn screen if you play LMG
LMG is kinda booty to play unless the enemy team is more braindead than yours
ok
AT - shoot vehicles in the back, takes out recon tanks in one hit if you don't just hit the wheels; click people in the meantime. Rifleman - click people. Auto rifleman - click people. Support/engineer - place down supplies and then switch off or proceed to click people. Medic - don't bother, you'll get clicked by someone else. LMG - you only get clicked by someone else. SL - you place down spawnpoints for your squad/team and proceed to click people.
Artillery? Click and get equal amounts kills to teamkills. Sniper? Click people. Spotter? Click more people than sniper, usually
Man, this game is incredible. Still fairly new but loving the learning process.
Thanks a lot !
Damn I didn't know this, thanks a lot!
As a medic main I am offended but completely agree
also now that console update is out, im assuming U12 is next in line?
I will now refer to HLL as People Clicker. Thank you sir.
Please put more garnison
Garnison, is that a spice?
New PC update when?
are British forces out yet?
2029
Hey all. Absolutely loving this game, finally turning the corner a bit on the learning curve. Playing primarly medic, but where is the best place to go to get help with learning new roles?
There's some stuff pinned in here, plus youtube, Gebatron, Monoespacial and Terrydactyl all do stuff, I'm sure there's more.
for tank stuff (or killing tanks) https://www.theline.gg/tankbible/ is your friend
Thank you!
and there's plenty of regular HLL streamers if you want to see a first person perspective of how people play different roles.
need to get a first person perspective of Drew commanding

I give up with this game, love arma, insurgency sandstorm etc but this isn't for me. I've followed all the advice watched YouTube and all that happens is I get shot all the time. My last game I had a kd of 2-30 I really can't see how this is fun
If you're willing to give it another go, LMK. Willing to play with you and show you the ropes
British forces are planned for year end (2022)
niiice, I love this game soooo much
last night I was calling in artillery with my squad spotting and it was so much fun
I see the K98 get a lot of people poking fun, I was laying on my belly on Hill 400 and just took out like 6 people before they saw me, love that gun
I need someone to show me the ropes
PC or console? I ask since I'm on PC here 🙂
Can you not cross play?
I'm on ps5
Idk anything about the game literally just got it 2 days ago and have yet to really play it
Forgot to tag
There's no PC -> console cross play
There's no PC/Console crossplay, since Consoles run on a different UE4 engine variant than the PC version. This almost completely eliminates the possibility of such a feature coming in the future.
Laaammeeee
when next update?
I would say to try out Tanking. It can help you cool off from getting killed all the time as Infantry and if you find a good group you can really change the Battlefield.
I'm a tank Leader with a friend that's a gunner (we sometimes have to get new guys for driving since some don't listen or just don't want to drive that often).
When we get a tank and everyone listens and follow orders we go entire games without dying and hold back enemy lines.
So I would recommend you trying out some armor, you can always message me if you want some guys to play with.
Sorry to hear this genuinely as I'm having huge fun with it but honestly I'd suggest not worrying too much about how many kills you get. There are so many games where this is rewarded but in my experience HLL isn't one of them. For me, knowing I contributed to the team win and my squad is more important and that is the key to having fun.
My k/D should be negative regularly but I healed 25 people, or was there with supplies when they were needed
Or called out where the enemy was coming in as I caught their bullets
Killing a bunch of people is actively contributing to your team, as capping power is directly tied to how many bodies are still moving on the point/area.
And healing people keeps those good at killing in the game, dropping supplies helps your SL put aronther SP or Garti down.
So you can still make valid contribution without a high kill score
But more importantly you can have fun doing it whatever the outcome
reminds me of BF "ptfo" players going 3-21 and not even making it halfway up the scoreboard
With the way the respawn system works, pimp, it's usually more efficient to just respawn instead of waiting for a medic. I appreciate a good medic, though
It's all situational, of course.
Stopping the enemy by killing them (which should go without saying), is one of the biggest tools against them advancing to whatever they intend to do.
"K/D doesn't matter" is cope, and nothing else
Sure wasn't dying on the medic hill, just an example of how you can be useful without racking up the kills. I guess my point was , consider playing the game a slightly different way than you would normally before sacking it off
True. That being said, if you're legit incapable of getting kills in this game, then you're really overthinking things or are completely situationally unaware
It is so easy to rack up tons of kills in this game, it's almost insultingly so
I’m happy if someone gets ammo from a crate I dropped. Anything I can contribute is a win in my book
I appreciate anyone who drops explosive ammo boxes tbh
Shame it's locked so far behind the levels
3 isn't that far at least.
Good evening soldiers,
I've been lucky and managed to get this game for free a few months ago on the psn .
Since then I've been coming and going trying to find my feet.
I love these type of games but I need to be trained/ taught.
Anyone could help and point in the right direction that would be awesome!
new players guide pinned in here
So it might just be me but I need "boots on the ground" no reading or videos really help as every game is completely different
I've set up my controller and headset as best as suits me
Just need someone with experience to teach me 🙂
I'm not bothered about kills as such, more I spawn, run for a bit, die and then do it all over again. I try to be active in comms but on xbox people aren't that keen to talk so I guess I'm just frustrated I'm not feeling like I'm doing much and it's a bit boring. I tried support and medic as alternate roles but again was having the same issue. I know you have to be slow etc but then it takes twice as long to travel and still get picked off. I also keep hearing people say hold positions etc but then how on earth do you cap? If you attacking you have to move to cap and then get killed
I like hardcore shooters but this one seems so much more punishing for no reason
It looks good though aha
1now this isn't a helpful comment
Try reading it like I'm not insulting you, because I'm not
Just seems arrogant that's all
Fair enough, wasn't saying what you want is wrong just didn't want someone to judge to early and the game to lose a player. I know those frustrations, finding a squad that talks is a big help but can be difficult to find
If someone being blunt is arrogant to you, maybe change the way you perceive things.
I really want to like it and have kept playing, I just can't get that fun feeling, I will try again in a couple of days
So I have to change how I perceive things to accommodate you? Now that is arrogance!
You don't need to do anything for me, just cut the whole victimization thing out
Fair enough, good luck mate
Lol, good one
Making friends I see @uncut jasper
Dude comes in here crying about how he’s not doing well at the game and takes a general observation not even directed at anyone in particular, personally. Not gonna wipe for someone after I told them how to do it yfm
People are sensitive yuri ☹️ and weird
Some of the best way to play this game as a new player is to grab a squad, pick a square around your defensive objective, (two if you feel generous) and just patrol it, own those squares with your squad. You can keep an eye on the map, ensure a garrison is up, OP is down... the kills and fun will come to you.
So is it normal to get booty banged by the servers? Going from 30 to 170+ ping when your preferences is set to NAE
You'll have a ping increase, regardless, because the ping you see in the menu is only pinging the server, not counting the 99 other players connected
I regularly see 100+ ping in-game whereas in pings at like 50/60 in the main menu
Solid advice
i really really enjoy this game
Honestly, the best way to enjoy this game is to find a community server that's close to you and has all the things you like. Become a regular and get to know the familiar names and faces. Join a clan, become a part of a group - it makes the game seriously so much better when you log on and recognise a good portion of names in the 100 player list.
Can you disarm a satchel on a tank?
Yes
yes, but on a 30s timer, it doesn't leave you much time to get out of the tank, shoot the AT pest, and disarm it.
Best bet is to send your tank deep into the enemy strongpoint and hope the satchel kills a lot of enemies.
If you keep the tank moving it’s incredibly difficult to get the satchel on it
And will most likely detonate in the initial area you placed it rather than the tank which could kill the guys that placed it
But yeah the suicide charge definitely is your best bet
The deploy timer cancels out when the tank moves away/out of reach, just fyi
Yes, but chances are theres 10 people staring at the tank waiting for it to blow up lol
It's a 10 second defuse on a 30 second timer
Just camp enemy arty. Job done !
Unfortunately the only function of recon with this broken meta
sadly
What helmet is this? Do you unlock it by a dlc or grinding?
You can look at all the DLC in the store and also if you go to the barracks you can mouse over locked things and see what it unlocks at
You...shoot them?
Stay low and near cover as much as possible. Stop in cover frequently and scan the environment instead of marathon running across open terrain. Do all of this perfectly, and you’ll still die over and over and over again in the same way, but you will make progress towards your point.
Ah, I see
Or, if you’re playing warfare, sit back in defense and let people come to you
And what if I have to advance in warfare?
I mean, not just in warfare
Generally what to do if I have to advance
In that case you’ll wanna refer back to my first point about sticking to cover as much as possible and taking your time. I’d also recommend hitting the flanks if your Squad Lead is ok with it and you have plenty of pressure on the front.
No problem. And don’t worry about dying a lot. It’s a meat grinder.
I know
I have been playing this for a few weeks now, up to rank 33 and I was generally getting killed and never killing anything. So after around about 40 hours of play, I’m starting to kill. On warfare, I did exactly that, defended and waiting, ended up losing the match but 15kills and no deaths. Probably doesn’t come close to other peoples stats, but that my best so far 😂
Interestingly, it is impossible to calculate a kdr if you didnt die once
Good stuff. I’ve only been playing a few weeks myself, but it seems like most players are allergic to playing defense on warfare, so props to you for that.
😊
The most effective way to get class XP is to build nodes and then role swap to what you want to play.

Yay I am getting somewhere!
Howdy, partner! Wrong channel

my suggestion is play something other than rifleman
rifleman simply isnt useful unless youre using the rank IX class on Axis
But I want to have standard issue rifles
which is a massive grind, and its better to unlock rank 3 loadouts for your other classes
most classes will have their factions standard issue rifle
Yeah but I want to be the standard dude
fair enough, but if you ever want to start contributing to your squad and team more substantially then try bridging out into other classes
rifleman can build defences (only if an engineer has laid the blueprint first) and throw grenades but thats about it unfortunately
If you want to play rifleman and grind it
Run supply trucks back and fourth
The xp gain is incredible
when can we play remagen
😭
you're gunna give me neck problems
how come 🤣
Anyone can point me towards some good artillery manuals? Want to learn both armor and Artill.
artillery doesn't really need a manual, its a case of
-use pings to mark the distance, use artillery pings to let your team know where you're going to shell, announce it in command chat too (you should be officer/tank commander if you're gonna do artillery for access to command chat)
-use either basic mental maths and the table on the left side of the screen or a conversion app to figure out the precise adjustments
-shells take 30 seconds to land
-dont shell near friendlies (as much as this can be an occupational hazard, you do not want to be kicked for teamkills)
-shell enemy garrison pings if there isnt a friendly going to dismantle it
-make heavy use of your map
-shells land in a 25 metre diameter of where you aim them and have a roughly 25 metre blast diameter
To those who have control of GERMAN at guns please stop firing at my Tiger or imma shoot back
when you're so tired and wanna go to sleep then you have to get atleast one or two xp or sum its so annoying
queue times in this game are unbearable
I think I'm just going to give up trying to learn it
I want a shotgun for US soldiers...
There is a shotgun
Oh? Am I just not high enough level?
Engineer 3 assault 3 I believe?
Also... Why is there no flamethrower?
It's on the roadmap for 2022
You ever seen one up close?
@sweet cliff 120" range, 1/2gal/sec(possible), and napalm compatible
Made in Cleveland Ohio! (Commercially available)

I had a guy bring a modified flamethrower to a paintball event...it was AWESOME! just him sloshing around then bright pink paint everywhere
Uhh is it a big deal to ask commander for vehicles? Like what's the cost for recon vehicle or supply truck?
Dunno if it's a good idea to spawn another one after you died...
No big deal. Recon vehicles and supply trucks are relatively cheap, but your Commander will let you know if you guys are too low on resources. Can't remember the exact cost off the top of my head, lemme see
Supply trucks and recon tanks are both 100 fuel. Light tanks are 150. Mediums are 200. Heavies are 500/600
If you guys have nodes up and the armor squads aren't being complete morons and losing multiple heavies, you should always have enough fuel for recons/trucks
Alright, how about nodes? Where can i build them?
What happened to the Iron Vanguard DLC on console? Why did they ditch it with the new Update? Will it ever return? Any official statements from the developers?
Can't find anything on the internet. 🤔
Can’t buy it anymore. If you didn’t buy it before it is too late
I know.
Bummer.
I just don't understand why.
No Hell on Wheels anymore.
Exclusivity probably
You can build them anywhere in friendly territory where you have 50 supplies.
Best/easiest method though is ask commander for a supply truck at the start (not the first supply truck as that should be used for garrisons), drive to the third row, drop supplies just after the line, walk back across to the second line and build your nodes there
That was they'll probably stay up all game
Timed exklusive DLCs are ...
So i can build only 1 node of each kind?
So the only way to spam them would be commanding a whole squad with everyone swapping engineer?
Correct
The team can only have three of each type too
Oh
Team as squad or whole side?
I am pretty sure i've seen more than 3 on some maps
whole team/side
it won't let you build after that, it'll say team limit reached
...scheiße! 😩
Several of the DLC’s were ditched for console EF launch, statement from HLL is they did not want to be seen as profiting from the update in the current environment. I expect they will return at some point in the future
Welp make sure to park somewhere safe next time
Let's hope so.
I want to support the development of the game and get all possible goodies for it.
They are great additions to the game, not too flashy or ridiculous like in Battlefield V.
Playing dress-up is one nice addition to the game.
If you look at it this way, all Military-FPS and Tactical Shooters shouldn't be allowed to profit from the current situation.
And that is - allow me to say it - unnecessary.
War in videogames don't have anything to do with war in real life.

DKB is hosting an open training event for the danish part of the community. This is not a recruitment event, but merely an insight into how HLL is played and trained on a competitive level.
check it out here -> #pc-divisions-recruitment message
yoo i was playing this game on free weekend and fell like going to buy it but its pretty expensive, do you guys have any site or recommendations where can i buy it for possibly lowest price?
Well i mean, you support the devs by purchasing the steam version, so i dunno if anyone's going to tell you
Howdy peeps, anyone looking for some help? I will be on this evening around 1900 EDT. I have roughly 2k hours in the game (rank 240). I am will to show and teach anyone anything they wish to learn. DM me
@feral bone ☺️
I think it’s because of the link, however tentative, between USSR and Russia. Agree that video games aren’t real life, but all it takes is a media outlet to pick it up and run with it as bad news… just not worth the potential trouble for them I guess.
Looking for a person who wants to run spotter on a recon team with myself. Message me if your down, NA East
Anyone wanna help a newbie out?
Although I have a r5 5600x, the graphics card usage is always around 60%, now optimize this game
Hello Guys! I'm [RHA] Beard_Man 🧔 currently on Level 350 ingame with almost 3000 hours behind my back. If you are a newbie and wants to learn the basics or have some questions, you can add me on Steam or DM me here, and I will be more than happy to help! We can go on servers and I can show you around!

Hello, im looking to buy Hell Let Loose, but from the videos i have watched, i feel i need to make sure i have a good group to play with. Anyone care to point a new recruit in the right direction?
Console or PC?
Console (Xbox Series X)
#console-divisions-recruitment Had a look in here? Find some close to you and jump in and say hi?
My enjoyment of HLL increased tenfold after joining a community.
I did. I am currently trying to join TG, but for some reason it is not allowing me to create an account on their TacticalGaming.net website.
But im not sure of another good group 🤷♂️
Fair enough, what region are you from?
United States (Texas)
May I recommend the 504th, we're always active and there is a good bit of us, we could easily show you the ropes and have you having fun in no time
Xbox players are in that group? I ask because i see the Playstation logo haha
HLL needs a better way to invite a group of friends into a match
Yea
Ok, great. How do i join?
I'll send invite
hey yall hows the australian servers on console? Are they alive
Hey man I've had a few games without drama (I'm in Melbourne). I've got 3000 hours in HLL on PC, but the sound on PS5 on aa 5.1 system is just mind blowing.
A party system is on the roadmap and will be developed in the near future Deuce! It's on the list of things to add ✅
Hey im Looking for some tips on how to get started message me if you wanna help
There's a lot of resources pinned in here.
do we have a gaming channel where we can team up for different games? @sweet cliff
there's #pc-looking-for-unit I guess
What about the goggles? Don't tell me fan-backlash was so huge, that they didn't implement them, too! They're so rad man!
