It's a short read but it covers how the spawn system and the two game modes work and so on.
Expect to die often and don’t feel bad when you do, slow and steady wins the race (in most cases)
alright
I might be online in an hour or so if you’d like to play
What are the in vehicle kills? I've got tankers getting 95 infantry and 47 in vehicle kills
Yeah I've got guys in my Unit doing say 95 infantry kills...but on the same scorecard has 47 "in vehicle kill"
Are you on console?
Since they swung this update at us they took the vehicle kills away and its this now and no one knows what it is exactly and yes on Console.
Then my aar is different than yours I believe
I just look at kills, vehicle kills and deaths
Nuts, We don't even have a vehicle kill category anymore
Team 17 working hard I see👀😂
@strong oracle thats what they look like now haha
Well that's weird, that occupies the spot vehicle kills does on the PC stat screen but you certainly didn't destroy 47 vehicles in one match, did you
Well that’s….something
No shot in helll even using max 3 guys per tank no shot we blew up 16+ tanks either
Perhaps they are trying to remove death counts to encourage more dangerous gameplay?
Like is it for kills you got while you were in the vehicle, or amount of people you killed that were inside a vehicle
deaths are still there for and i've searched reddit for an explanation but nothing
So vague considering what it’s replacing
Tbh it’s probably an oversight on devs not doing things properly
exactly wwere not sure but we didnt run Arty or anything all those kills were in a tank or jumping out to kill AT/Engineers
I tend to die every single time I just put apart from repairs
I don’t have a good feeling about this upcoming update for some reason, but here’s hoping
hello. Why is it that the South American servers have been eliminated? what do we do now? we quit the game? bad your decision gentlemen.
How come when I want to do a mic check it says only when I join a active game can I do it, Im in one
And why does my VOIP not connecting
VOIP just has issues sometimes, you can try reconnecting in the audio settings, or you can restart the game.
NA, looking to Officer a squad of 18+ chill cooperative players that have a mic. (PC)
They didn’t/aren’t doing it on purpose
Hey mate, we are chasing it up with the team. I don't think it is an intentional move, we'll let you know when we know more.

Hi all
How to find English servers in Eu that are not full? Its always some kind of polish, french or german only server
Non English servers always put the language in the title. Assuming you're in Europe, just look for low ping servers that don't mention a language. There are loads
If you find one that is 40-80 players, join that. I'll be full in a few minutes and you don't have to queue
Well the problem is theyre all full
You could always check the US East coast servers. The game is perfectly fine at 120 ping
But, I've never spent more than 5 minutes looking for a server. Five minutes is a bad day
Critical why do you have a PS logo… take that off right now
Is this some sick joke
K thx
The console channels used to be hella salty, so I'd get my fix in from there
You’re literally an addict
Sodium is important for bodily functions
Huffing salt

@granite lily - someone who had some serious bile issues. 😛
any chance of a coupon code like 2% off or something? I want to use a steam gift card and Hell Let Loose exceeds it by 1 euro (25€ gift card)
Good evening fellas I just bought the game because I've got that old Red Orchestra 2 itch coming back after watching some youtube clip
- How do I affix the bayonet and why aren't there bayonets in the game
- How do I make my rifle smaller on the screen, it's too big and I don't like how modern games make weapons take 1/3rd of the screen, viewmodel_fov slider?
- How similar is it really to Red Orchestra? Will I like the game?
hello I may buy this game this week and i was wondering is it cross play?
Is it like BFV and is the atmosphere good does it really feels like a war?
I saw a gameplay of this game and i am interested in ww2 games like hoi4, bf5.
It's cross play between PS/Xbox but not between console/PC
No bayonets, unfortunately. Not aware of any ability to reduce the weapon size. Depends on what you liked about RO2. Gunplay is seriously lacking, but it feels somewhat like RO2 when battling over capture points.
I loved the feel of it, random soldiers dying and stuff, it was "dramatic"
However Hell Let Loose seems like a very serious game with very dedicated players but also very demanding of them
its not lol. at least that's not how the majority of players play it
you might get that from streamers and videos, but your average pub match is a different experience
I got that from joining some squad and getting muted right away lol
oh so you already bought the game, but are asking if you would like it?
I'm on the fence about refunding it
I mean long term
Its fun. Its not RO2, but its still fun
are there Eastern Front dedicated servers?
How's the view inside the tanks? I remember RO2 where you could see hans loading the shells and stuff
tank interiors don't exist
I played RO2.
do you miss it as much as I do
Rising Storm was the peak man, more linear maps but holy censored were the nipponese fun to play
Their engine was shit tho lmao
HLL is not RO2 no matter how much any of us want that to be true
Welp
I'll give the game another shot within the allotted refund time frame hope I'll find fun in there
HLL is still fun, but don't chase that dream
I didn't like Vietnam too much, did you?
I think the heavy movements and stuff weren't adapted to the numerous aks
one thing I like in HLL for now is the sounds and the manual bolt action stuff that feels incredible, hope they'll expend that eastern front content
bayonet charge woukd be great ngl
weird to write off a whole game because it doesn’t have bayonets ngl
plus like
you’re just never gonna get close enough to melee someone realistically
And you move way too slow for a viable bayonet charge
"1. How do I affix the bayonet and why aren't there bayonets in the game" ?????
Dude had to be trolling, come on
Boss please just pick one of - and _ and live with the decision. Hell, console-looking_for_unit is using BOTH of them. That’s the way to madness!
One sec
I managed to shovel and knife quite a few people. When you're really desperate, they can save your life... only to get HE'd five seconds later.
Still a couple to go across the whole server
Don't have access to them all
The inconsistency is killing us
(and you probably)
This will be the thing to break the game
Say that to my 20 killstreak using a shovel
pics or it didnt happen
Less then 100hrs, looking for a few people to squad up?

In discord? They were done during the Kickstarter phase, you can’t get them anymore.
Otherwise, select a platform in #readme-rules
Zabojstwa piechoty
probably a total noob question but I have some weird situations sometimes.
-
Enemy is visible to me - not too far away. I am shooting like 30 rounds or so and he keeps walking. I tried hitting the main body/legs/head/firing ahead of his path etc.
-
Enemy is completely out of view. Before I die I see roughly where the shot came from. Nothing at all visible that there was an enemy. Not even a dot. How can he see me? I assume a sniper? I then spawn 3-4 times again and go completely different locations on the map. Same thing seems to happen. I see no one and then bam a shot out of nowhere in front of me and I am dead.
-
I spawn in a house and run out the back/side. Away from any action. About 20-30 meters from the house I suddenly get hit by artillery. I am completely alone and there is no one else around. Why would artillery go down in the middle of nowhere?
Or is there some kind of setting that I am missing to view further?
In HLL it says the roles apart from rifleman are all locked
This means that the limit has already been reached for your squad. It’ll say 1/1 to the left of each role. You’ll have to find another squad if you want to choose one of them to play as
I've just started my first game and after around 10 min and having killed 5 or 6 enemies I was banned from the server for cheating, I have never cheated in my life which is why I'm a bit surprised, especially since it's a hardcore shooter witch basically one shot one kill, did anyone else experience that?
I got kicked but not banned
yeah a kick seems more reasonable, how can they know if i'm cheating based on 10 minutes of gameplay and not even crazy stats
- another weird situation. I am crawling with 8 other people along a field. I am somewhere in the middle of the group and only I get shot
1 hit - I didn't even see anyone. There was even a hill beside me
Were you in grass
how long does it take HLL players to learn that crawling in a field is one of the dumbest maneuvers you can do
no in the snow
new player here. can you explain this plx?
anyway, new player looking for a team to learn from
PC, ofc
Do not crawl anywhere where you are higher than the ground around you, you are guaranteed to get popped
A ditch, trench, or building? Sure, maybe. Anywhere else, hell no lmao
yeah but what I dont't understand is that the other 8 people didn't get hit at all and proceeded further
okay another weird one
I am in a house
and the enemy just shoots through the wall?
out of 6 rooms
You can’t shoot through walls, and the building around you possibly wasn’t rendering so they could see you
The amount of times I’ve been tk
20
Mmmm no, 30!
Whilst you deffinitely can't shoot through thick walls, I'm pretty sure thin earth mounds, wooden fences/walls can be penetrated
I was in a 3 story house. Looking at the stair case (only way in).
And got shot from the side through 2 walls - 1 shot.
Honestly no clue, sounds like you're on crack or smth since these are all super one off things that can create suspicion of someone hacking, but at the same time I can not relate at all nor' have I ever seen a hacker in my 160 hours
And this is my professional infographic on how new players get killed in fields.
Your eyes are lower then your players big egg head. So you end up showing your helmet when thinking you're safe behind lots of these little dirt mounds, grass etc.
Most likely your legs were clipping through the wall. Try moving away from the walls a bit to avoid this.
Fun fact: your eyes are actually closer to the centre of your body/neck in game, exaggerating these kinds of things. Often times you think you’re behind something, but your head is still sticking out.
Absolutely, but this was a super simple way to show how cover that might conceal you, actually doesn't.
ATTENTION: As request by a HLL member here in discord, please see the: **“HELL LET LOOSE NEW PLAYER GUIDE” U10 **This version is now downloadable on your mobile phone and can be viewed as 24 single pages from 1-24. Link:
To make matters worse, when you move crouched the player model rises up, but your eye level doesnt.
Yeah, but i honestly don't think that's a bad thing
It kind of makes the whole movement of the game unique
The only real gripe I have currently with movement and stuff related to that are the bipods on the MG. Placing a bipod in most trenches will result with your entire line of sight being obstructed by grass.
Do bullets have travel time, do I have to lead my shots much? Also do bullets have drop and damage falloff over range?
And is my favourite ww2 gun MP40 good in this game?
Yes it is
Sad unlocking stuff takes a while D:
There’s travel time but drop is very minimal for most engagements you’ll be in
okies, cheers

In a short range it’s decent.
I really don't get the aiming in this game.
I tried it as a rifleman and as machine gunner.
Enemy is visible to me - not super far away (I am on his backside - he is not moving), full body. I try aiming directly, slightly above, had/body in general etc.
single shots, short bursts, or just full auto. 2-3 full magazines. The guy doesn't die.
He spots me for half a second and 1 shots me through cover.
How do I even know that I hit him/where my bullets hit? There is no indicator for any impact?
I also have no indicator from where bullets are coming from.
Or am I missing something?
In another case (the train map) I am hiding in between some rubble in a house hiding there for like 5 minutes without moving.
Then I peak out of a hole and I immediately get shot from the other side of the map with full-auto instantly dead.
How would he know I was there and how can he hit me that far away with full auto
Can i join some team? I have time to game on fri, sat and sun.
Why is it wrong to crawl in field of hay that are pretty tall?
#pc-divisions-recruitment. Hay/foliage doesn’t render for everyone at different ranges, so someone could see you plain as day if far enough
Makes sense
Whilst his statement is true, from my experience you gotta' be at some pretty long range to not have it load. Most of the time it's just easy to spot you, plain and simple as that.
you can shoot through windmills on kursk
~200m is enough
Hi guys, any recommended servers I should drop into for teamplay / with mics? I've recently started, and so far I feel like I've been kind of unlucky and not getting quality matches. Thanks 🙂
Is there anyway to find stats, example Win %
There are no persistent stats, the only thing the game tracks is your in game stats (for that match), if you play on privately owned community servers they sometimes have 3rd party stats tracking
New stats coming soon though :3
kk, and how do I switch the firing modes for the Thompson or other weapons, on PC
no such thing my friend
protip: tap mouse button for single fire
hold mouse button for automatic fire
alright
which dlc is worth to buy?
They're just cosmetics so whichever ones you think look cool, but mind you there are some level restrictions and what not, so look in the barracks mouse over what you want should tell you what the restrictions are.
NA PC player looking to Officer a squad, anyone want to join? Please have a mic and be respectful.
Hi,
the game keeps saying that i can't find server. Although I already lowered to ping on STEAM.
Can anyone help me?
you're in the public test lobby, quit and launch just "hell let loose" from steam
keep getting this 😦
You need to verify files at the least.
It's saying some of the game files are corrupted.
Thank you. I was indeed. No unstill that test game and install the game
@unkempt storm thank you
yeah found 1 corrupted file in verification, cheers
probaply soviet partisans at it again

HELL LET LOOSE INTRO TUTORIAL: monoespacial April 6th 2022. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fj6EHiW3EXg
This is my idea of an unskippable less than 5min intro video for the game.
I changed the title because maybe it was too aggressive.

that works
update out yet?
Hey everyone! Total NOOB here. How do voip in game in close proximity? What keybind?
V for proximity by default, C for squad chat by default, look at your keybinds
Thank you
Anybody have any tips on how to eliminate or help fix kinda like wavy lines on my screen when playing in game? Lol
I just got the game today as a little birthday gift to myself and I could really use some help starting off. Like some one on one lessons would be great because Ive never been able to learn from videos alone
What platform are you on mate? There are a lot of local communities that are looking for new players willing to learn - sometimes it's the best way - find a local group, jump in their squad, tell them you're new and go from there. Fortunately most of the HLL community is willing and ready to help people learn
PC
Check out #pc-looking-for-unit and #pc-divisions-recruitment as well 🙂
Finding some good community servers you can call home is the best way to enjoy HLL
I've decided to really commit to WW2 stuff and im gunna start reenacting so this is a good kick in the right direction!
This game has great atmosphere, there can be some really cinematic moments
So I've heard
And it doesn't chug my little 1650 super graphics card to the brink of death cough cough, star citizen, cough cough
Hey all, prob this has been asked 1000 times but couldn't find anything...I just got the game for PS5 but voice chat is not working. Any ideas how to solve this?
Have a quick search in #tech-solutions and #tech-support - you can use the filters in the search box for things like 'VoIP' and 'PS5'
Quick question: is there a setting on PC to allow for tank turret to be aimed with mouse instead of WASD keys?
Thats unfortunate. Thanks for letting me know
I don't think it would be a very useful aiming method though you need to be precise and that would be hard with a mouse as weird as that might sound.
Because you don't want to be over traveling and making really small changes when bumping your mouse or anything.
I think you might be able to emulate what you want with joy2key though even with a regular mouse but you'd need to toggle it on/off as you got into the gunners seat
If you're doing it right. You don't
But for real. Deaths are not punished by the game at all. Just try to your kills in as well and take out enemy spawns

Anti tank uses wrench and 50 supplies = voila
doesn’t show up in the menu though
hey I just bought the game
Menu? You’ll need the second loadout, if that’s what you’re referencing
Like you hold right click with the wrench right
It only shows nodes and defensive emplacements
do I just get in the game or do I need to do anything else?
You are the engineer role then not the AT role
Read the new players guide it is pinned in here
oh so you need strictly the AT kit for the pak guns?
The AT guns are on the 2nd AT loadout (AT level 3), yeah.
where do you go for lfgs and such
You also need supplies to build them
Anyone know how to level up fast with AT?
- Build nodes
- Switch to AT
@edgy harness 👆 This will be one of the fastest ways for sure.

**ATTENTION: Please take note: **PTE #3 THURSDAY 30th JUNE 11am BST!
We're planning to hold the final PTE for Update 12 on Thursday 30th June 11am BST
**
As per the latest post by our Community Manager Gothic today 12.27 P.M.** in #pte-info you can find all the details there.
EU Servers will be online for approximately 6 hours before switching to US Servers for an additional 6 hours so if you are available during that time frame please jump in and join us in testing.
Why is no one playing on official servers?
because they have 0 moderation
I mean, is there a hacker issue in this game?
Yes but no if you play on community servers because bans are shared between servers.
If you're playing on moderated servers no.
The amount of cheaters isn't large, but they generally get caught very quickly.
Sorry when I say 0 moderation I mean that there are no admins, they probably also share in that ban system (would be my guess at least), but it probably isn't as quick, and it also doesn't take things that actively moderated servers will do like boot team killers, toxic people, handle harassment, etc.
I shouldn't say 0 moderation because I think there's some potential that they manage ban lists centrally for all of them with the same cheating reports, but you can't ping someone and have them show up in server and handle an issue like you can on a community server.
I get banned for my VAC ban from 900 days ago lol
That is a server option, there are servers that only ban people with VAC bans from the last year for instance.
Check some of the pinned resources in here especially the new players guide.
I have a random question
What do the bullets that crossed like a x mean?
Yes that
I believe that is the icon for the ammo box
which refills bullets, not explosives, the explosive ammo has a different indicator
Ah okay!
Ahhh okay

hello, i buy the game and, apart from the game are another hll but this is public testing and what is xd
That is for when they do testing for new releases (one is happening tomorrow, check #pte-update13) you do not need to ever install it if you don't want to.
There are volume controls in setting under audio
if they are maxed and you're still having trouble, trying turning the sound effects and music etc down (leaving voip and master max), turning your PC volume up to hear that and eventually you'll find a balance that suits
Turn down sound effects
Hey, new to HLL, trying to get used to the game. Been joining servers, telling people I'm new, but no one really uses the mic at all. Guess I'm not finding the right people/server?
try community servers rather than official servers. Unfortunately, it can be very hard to find people who communicate sometimes
also check the pinned messaged in this channel for community guides
lfg
i need help xd
i play on gforce now and i dont lisent my microphone on the game
the oder pelope dont lisent me
Probably better off if people dont hear you speak
Good sportsmanship 
I heard people are playing the night maps how do i play em
any loadout levelling tricks?
i really want the at gun loadout but it seems to take long, one game got me only 1 third of the lvl 2-3 bar
Install pte -> play pte -> reap rewards
Can crouching or lying down save you from explosives?
I mean, if it far but is still lethal, can crouching or lying down be a saving grace
depends, normally not
Well thats crappy
shee
Hm
Depends on if you’re in a crater or maybe a ditch. Sometimes if so
Is the PTE still up? I have my server settings set up correctly in Steam, but it's not pulling anything.
Been over for hours
ah, that's too bad. Okay, thanks
Don't know if I should be asking about upcoming content questions
But will there be in the next near or far updates African Front maps and factions ?
But you did ask, and now you must answer for your crime
epic in bed fail
Whats the best way to lvl at to lvl 5?
Go engineer, build nodes, switch to whichever role you’re levelling
Other than sitting in an AT gun, not really, nothing quicker than any other role
Just how quick you expecting this to be 
TY @unkempt storm ❤️
How do I play the sniper role
You need to join a recon squad that already has a spotter in it. Spotter is the “officer” of recon, so you become spotter when creating a recon squad and can’t switch to sniper. It can be tough if you don’t find someone to group up with and play to set it up, as most spotters have a friend joining
Oy look what I found on the roadmap
Aight for all the newbies out there, place, replace, and protect garrisons! Try not to just rush directly into a point but cut the point off from any spawn points, then make your way inside the point, play for the purpose of being a crucial member of the squad NOT for the purpose of simply killing the enemy. I recommend learning roles like support, engineer, anti-tank until you learn the ins-and-outs of the game fundamentals. While these roles may seem “complex,” in reality they aren’t bad AT ALL and they actually will provide a massive help in learning the functions of each game.
I know that’s random but just felt like it may help to a certain degree 🙂
Free Ted talk hype
it is negligible unless you are using a sniper rifle
so you just hit where you point?
for the most part, there is a little drop but it doesn't matter since body shots with a rifle will usually OHK
I mean combat is usually sub 100m
good for you, then you should be an expert on bullet drop
like I said, its negligible
im too used to other games
There's a game play option you can turn on that makes your bullets more visible, not massively though
I forget what it's called
I'm not driving I'm just not at home and can't look for you but poke around it's in there.
dw ill find it
yeah, I can't think of the name either, but its under gameplay settings
Not to knit pick, but in what other games do you see the bullet? 👀
isn't it common to see your tracers in BF and COD?
I mean, I don’t think we’re talking about tracers here
its a relic of the initial introduction of the ballistics system. you can turn it off.
something like.. show FPP
in options
he seemed to have figured it out
hey, so in the rules channel it said to read #community_faq before asking questions, but i have to ask the question, where is that channel? 😄
Legacy hold over maybe? Or maybe we need a specific role to see it
Maybe someone with discord powers can look into it.
@brazen stirrup 👀
Archived probably
And you, the archivist
well in that case, i hope im free to ask a question 😄 im somewhat new, only like lv35 or so. i read in the wiki about garrisons and found that they show enemy near in 50m radius and get disabled in 15m, but then it says that red zone garrisons lock at 100m already, dont they just mean it shows enemies within 100m? or how does it really work as it would seem weird if forward garris already get locked at 100m. its not how it feels in game either
Blue zone garries show a red ! When enemies are near, red zone garries lock and prevent spawning at 100m
Just like a blue zone garry does when someone is close
huh, so they really do lock at 100m already? thats wild, well thanks
that explains why i sometimes couldnt find the enemy to clear a garri 😄
No

Bless you my Son.
ah thanks, its working now
Sooo everyone with permission thought that everyone without permission had permission to see that channel, for a year? 
“Why does everyone keep asking the same questions we answered in the FAQ”
This is a story about four people named Everybody, Somebody, Anybody and Nobody. There was an important job to be done and Everybody was sure that Somebody would do it. Anybody could have done it, but Nobody did it. Somebody got angry about that, because it was Everybody’s job. Everybody thought Anybody could do it, but Nobody realized that Everybody wouldn’t do it. It ended up that Everybody blamed Somebody when Nobody did what Anybody could have.
@lean orchid RE: no one making garrisons 
RE: RE: no one defending
There's 50 people to blame if there aren't enough spawns.
Just go solo squad leader, locked, and wander around with the supply truck.
And sod it, put the buggers down anywhere you can squeeze them. There’s 8 slots for the things, better make use of it all.
Before that damn Mr and Mrs Recon come along and kick them over.

absolutely beautiful
Anybody have a clue on what the Pacific maps are expected to be? Okinawa and Iwo Jima are already way overused imo. Let's get Tinian, Saipan, Kokoda, Tarawa, or Guam. Hell, the Battle for Luzon would be insanely interesting.
Not much interesting when it comes to Kokoda, lot of hills, nothing of strategic importance, load of jungle
im hoping for Guadalcanal or Peleliu
Why was inaccurate and badly oudated #community_faq re-released?
Several members requested the ability to read community_faq. I can ask the devs for an updated version.
For what? To read misinformation? 🤣
Sometimes this community makes no sense.
Someone new was reading the readme-rules, and in there it says to read the community faq for support
(Which wasn’t visible at that time)
☠️
It seems a bit outdated with the various dates, but mostly correct? The only real misinformation I can see is the prospect of the free Nazi Pass
Hi! Anyone willing to play with me noob?

more useful when sls call for airdrops rather than using a supply truck
annoying for engineers trying to make nodes
Nodes aren't nearly as important as spawns
why was stalingrad made
shouldve been berlin or some other late war engagement
🤔
Absolute Noob here. Just got HLL, haven't played it yet. Just checkin' things out for now...
Lots of pinned resources in here, particularly the new players guide
Thanks, I'll look for that guide.
of course ya know where the enemy shooting from in bf v when you can drink tea and look around whilst surviving 20 bullets 😏
Did you consider rotating on support and dropping supplies for yourself in the HQ? There are good hiding spots so you almost never lose those nodes. You also get additional points for dropping supplies for yourself (drop the ammo/he boxes too, and plant mines).
You will finish these nodes at around the same time as if you got the first truck at the beginning of the game. The only disadvantage is sometimes you have to jump from squad to squad when switching between engineer and support. But fortunately engineer and support are very often not taken in squads (a major sin in my estimate), so I literally do this every single game.
The first supply truck should always be used for garrison building (at least it gives your team a huge advantage compared to an earlier set of nodes). And what grinds my gears is engineers that leave supply trucks on nodes in the middle of nowhere. If you get the supply truck, at least bring it to a nearby garrison or an HQ so that SLs can use it for backup garrisons. Ofc it's still a hundred times better than a team of 50 where noone else bothers to get those nodes up, so props for doing your part soldier. 
H
There is enough time in the warm up for command to drop a second supply truck, so it doesn’t really matter who takes the first one imo. But yes, please always return your trucks to the shopping cart corral when finished.
I laugh when people get upset over taking the first one as engi, although I won’t if there’s no command, and I at least wait if anyone else so chooses to get in
thinking of getting HLL with the DLC from steam, before i bite the bullet im just wondering how populated servers are? is it difficult to get a full server or does this game still have a thriving player base?
mate it's not 20 years old, loads of full servers

Devs had a P.T.E. test on Thursday 30th June 2022 and are now in the process of ensuring all bugs / glitches found and reported by our members have been fixed before U12 is released. Please be patient.
alright, thanks for the update
🤣🤣🤣 ahhaha, that’s very funny. You’re very funny jaguar
(Crickets chirping for eternity)
Team17 has said it will be released this month.
They’ve been saying that for 5 months 👀
They have not
They sure af haven’t been releasing anything, just saying “it’ll be out when it’s ready” isn’t good enough, especially for a small, mostly loyal fan base
Well that isn't what you said though
👀
Whats a good division for a new player?
(15 years old, so 16 or 18+ ones will probably not work)
Thx
What up
Aye
Hello. New player here. Older gamer (44). Only downloaded the game last night and I plan to play it all week (to start off with) At first glance the game seems alot to take in and I'm hesitant to just jump into someone's squad being a newcomer, I'm sure I'd seem like I just jumped off the plane to C*ldera! 🤣. I was just wondering is there anyone here that would be prepared to take someone under their wing for a few games until I got familiar with the game? I'm in Europe (Ireland). Many thanks. Tatt 👌
As long as you're willing to talk, squads will welcome you. Say hello first and if they don't respond find a new squad.
Look where people are shooting, peak small amounts. You'll be fine. Just make sure you're talking
Oh I can talk. That's for sure. I appreciate that
Can't agree with him enough, no one talking or communicating a thing is the most frustrating thing
Yeh I get ye. I used to play Insurgency sandstorm and that was the first game I had played that had a need for decent comms, even though most games I'd been involved in on that game, people rarely used comms in a big way.
With that being said you can talk too much in that it disrupts other people's ability to hear stuff and the SL to hear command chat.
Don’t feel bad for dying, it happens and it happens a lot. Like the others have said try to talk to your squad mates and you’ll be fine. Slow and steady wins the race in this game
Thank you 👌

Lol he fixed it
Stop trolling man, if the update was released with 200 bugs you would be the first one shouting " Whyyyyy do they rush the update"!!
No one at Team 17 rushes anything lol
coz i guess you would want them to spend 24 7 working ?
No but more than 5 minutes a day would be nice
Dawg, game devs across the industry have essentially been in a state of perpetual crunch for 25 years. I can guarantee they spend almost every waking hour working on the game and probably wanted it out long ago as well, but that's just not how it works a majority of the time. Add in the fact that they're targeting parity with the console version, and things slow down even more. BM is also a small international studio as well, so not everyone's under the same roof. BM is also now corporately backed, which introduces its own share of changes and arguably issues.
T17 aren't even the main devs of the game yet
I'm not excusing them for the lack of communication or transparency or even the (subjective) quality of the game itself, but still; I guarantee they've been working on it a ton
like at least 6 minutes
48 days since the consoles got bugged weapon damages that came with their update. Not even a hotfix at this point
Now stuff like that, yeah, I couldn't even imagine what's going on
we dont care about console
Well it's more the fact that I haven't seen any official acknowledgement of it yet
Unless I missed something
console is a road apple
Void interactive seems to do just fine
What is the hold up on something that is change in a number value?
Void isn't corporately-backed, pimp
Do they need to get the a-ok from a series of management to do something like updating weapon damages? It's been over 1.5 months
like from sony or ms??
You need an A-OK from management to do anything on a game, really.
And it depends
It's so complicated, it's hard to even start to figure out
Someone may have found out what was wrong and passed it along, but that may not be high on their priority list for some reason
Or maybe it is fixed internally, but no one's communicating it - again, for some reason
I still am not 100% on it being a bug, and this sort of delay is partly why.
Or yeah, maybe it's not a bug, but they're not going to get into it
Right
they are real weird in telling what is intentional or not.
“Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt.” moment
I can't think of another studio off the top of my head - at least for shooters - that kinda goes about things this way
"Just wait" is the extent of their level of transparency
Even CoD and Battlefield straight up acknowledge issues to begin with, even if they end up never getting changed/fixed
Void Interactive is insanely transparent with their dev process and timetables, which is why I don't mind them taking their time or delaying patches tbh
When was the last time dev input wasn't just some form of damage control
Wait, actually, this reminds me of Turtle Rock with Back4Blood
but still not as barren in info
y'all crazy
They at least have a Trello lmao
Scratching my head and smh'ing my head tbh
But at least I don't patrol the Steam Discussions 
never sink that low
I would much rather them take a long time updating than getting a bad buggy rushed game like vantrashcan (vanguard ) that has nothing to do with actual history and makes impossible changes to guns for the time period that it was placed in and a whole lot of stuff that didn't exist till several years later.
Jambax stated definitively at one point that it was a bug
hello
Heyo
hey
so question you probabaly get a lot, is he’ll let loose cross platform between xbox and pc i check online and it said no but i wanted to make sure
console + pc can't play together
I don't think so
wholesome
no u.
Ty
/remind me one year
I bought this game and it seems like I'm just cannon fodder which is kinda appropriate for the time period but if there's anyone that wants to play with someone new DM me 
EU
We thought the same about the AT gun, but they are changing its damage values in U12. I suspect they don't see it as a pressing issue.
The at gun change was definitely deliberate though. They're dialing it back because people complained it was effective now
Oh. my recollection was that it was supposed to penetrate heavies, but not do heavy gun damage. my mistake. btw, I like your word choice there 
@brazen stirrup translate pls
no clue
are you even german
They put out a dev brief a long time ago noting the damage was incorrect
Yeah that's what I thought. It was supposed to have the penetration power of a heavy, but do less damage. Its been an acknowledged bug since U11, but clearly not a priority to fix.
I am the opposite of Chum I was afraid they had dropped it as an issue because people hadn't complained enough when nothing happened at the last patch and hotfix.
They either cannot make small tweaks w/o a major change to code, or its not a priority to make small tweaks
Obviously they still want to make adjustments to tankplay. No love for gunplay 😩
Anyone have an issue with the medic role during reviving? Periodically, I get a stutter which does not allow the revive circle to complete. Thinking it is a bug?
To the HLL team, sorry for the loss of James. He seems to have passed quite young? 😥
when's the update coming
They have been saying in this discord sometime this month.
nice
We're past the final PTE. According to Team 17, U12 launches this month
I have been playing for a long time, the cannon fodder stuff you’ll get used to it. But over time you will find it easier to move from cover to cover
Also. You will need alot of patience, I’ve had moments where I had to stay in cover for 10 minutes. Which is good in my opinion, that’s how a realistic war game should be

Noice
is there like no servers in pte like in general or am i just doing something wrong?
The PTE was a one day event thats long over
is there any way, or a 3rd party app?, that i can see the statistics of my last, or previous battles?
That isn't tracked by the game at all, but some community servers have some third party stats tracking, but that would only show you what was tracked and for the time you were on those servers, so yes but mostly no
poo poo pee pee; thanks
although of course there are the steam achievements so you can see some of that info
I bet this has already been found before
but the devs aint very funny for this one
any news on when will update 12 will be released?
all we know is sometime this month
Is that one of the maps thats coming with night mode? I don't think it's all of them
you are right, its hurtgen forest
A map with night mode?
PC
and reduced visibility is somewhat the point of it - but it's more of reduced ambient lighting and a fog vs. actual blackness
would love it if it was pitch black and all you see are the flashes of the guns being fired and the arty explosions
Console will get night maps whenever they get U12
That'd be insane
it's more foggy than it is dark so people can do fewer gamma tricks
gema gamma
Gayma tricks
(they may be implemented differently for consoles? I'm unsure if how they've chosen to do it on PC is a design choice vs. dev restriction)
We want update 12
We do
I can't wait to shoot all wild into the forest in the pitch black of the night to hopefully hit something
Yeah I get that, also I haven't had the luck of joining a squad that has an officer giving out actual orders so usually I'm just running around clueless
Me and my buddy are looking to get into this game, we've both read the new player guide and are looking to give things a go tomorrow evening (GMT, PC) and wondered if anyone could point us towards any organised player groups or anything who might be newbie friendly
@slate lotus look here #pc-divisions-recruitment and #pc-looking-for-unit play on community server's tell them you're new players many will guide you.
Great, thank you!
@slate lotus check link https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCsxPAqh5MvJFZCU7tJFzXlg
I would suggest just follow the SL or the biggest group of squadmates sounds a bit dumb but can save you from running around clueless more times than not
Granted I give Team 17 and the mods a bunch of crap but repeating this type of stuff multiple times a day must be annoying lol
Not so much as annoying we (Moderators) attempt to point the **NEWER **members in the right direction, so they too can get into the game play of “HELL LET LOOSE” and enjoy.
Most of our HLL community are more than willing to help those who have just purchased the game.
Done
is this like general chat?
HLL related general chat, yep!
Yeah it is hard, you have to slow down and work with your unit to enjoy it initially. You'll die a lot. But ask questions and many vets will happily show you the ropes
ight thx
Suprised to see many people excited for night maps. Personally it just worries me. Many of those maps like hürtgen just have people camping in rubble and staying prone for ages just to kill passerbys. Gonna be even harder spotting those kinda people at night. Its already tough to spot people at daytime lol
Camping or holding ground? The eternal debate.
If you don't want to be randomly killed, don't blindly run about
Dying is part of the game, tbh.
People get salty or mad or w/e...But once you just accept it, then it's all good.

bro got no money and now is hacking people
Besides, if people are working as a squad they will make swift work of one or two static campers. They can’t kill all six of you.
I have a question, what do the different factions do well in? I've heard Germany is better with tanks and defense and US is better infantry. I have heard absolutely nothing about USSR and have never seen them win. Any help on elaborating what the factions shine at?
Tanks are 1:1 with the exception of the light tanks in each faction. The factions are mostly 1:1 in offense/defense with the exception of some base infantry differences. It's really the maps that are going to affect how a faction will perform unless the team is on top of it. The Russian maps are rough to play on, it's either roll or get rolled; I haven't seen many close matches in that regard compared to Western Front.
You have any proof of this? Looking at their stuff now, and not really seeing anything to indicate that other than some of them maybe being wehraboos.
Can you prove this or not?
And...?
They want people to do research on nazi Germany….while playing a game centered around world war 2?
I'm asking you to elaborate, homie, don't assume
I'm asking you to provide proof for an accusation that you made and you've legitimately given nothing and are now accusing other people of the same thing
^
ah so what you’re saying is you’re salty that you got kicked and you’re trying to smear them a bit
?
That first part is pretty open to interpretation and second may not be representative of the entire clan
Like I can't look at what you're saying and definitely choose who's in the wrong because there's a lot of missing context
If you don't have any screenshots or recordings or anything to back up what you're saying or even provide missing context, then you're just coming off as someone making something up for the sake of attention. Sorry, bruv. Call me a neo-Nazi or whatever if it helps you cope
old mate here hasn’t seen how fast people here have called out neo nazis and how well the mods deal with it whenever it’s been an issue
no space for nazis here at all, but you can’t go around making accusations without proof like
Those dudes get eaten alive in here, it's hilarious.
Are you special boy?
This Discord has nothing to do with moderating clans or servers
we had a SS milsim clan come and advertise in here with their nazi apologist admin the other day and they very very swiftly removed their posts and banned the admin
but like
i don’t get your point you’re just being salty and miserable and i’m sure if we got their side of the story it would be totally different
How about you provide proof instead of hanging around and just whining, bro
This really isn't the place for server drama.
Play the game, join a different server, I don't know what else to tell you if you've got nothing else
If they're really that bad, then I'd assume we'd have heard about this clan already or will more in the future, like...
@crimson flint you could go play Mirnecraft
Well I get that the basics are all similar I am just trying to weed out the differences xD
It's a bit confusing considering the devs are definitely trying to target a 1:1 with everything while also trying to have asymmetrical balancing with historic loadouts and squad compositions and whatnot. I think it starts to blur heavily once you hit level 3 with like every class because you'll have access to semi-autos - which absolutely level the playing field.
Semi-autos can go up against anything at any typical engagement range competently
Overall, I think the differences in factions are so minor that you're just not going to notice them in most instances
Open Nazi-ism is allowed?
Idk...I've not seen anything...People are weird though, who cares if they wanna do research on the Nazi's, they're all dead anyway.
I just think you need to settle down a lil' bit dude...I mean it'd be a little difficult having a WW2 game with the Germans in it and NOT mention the Nazi's.
You are in fact not allowed to do that here, but that isn't what's happening, you're making (so far) baseless accusations about a third party game server
@stoic hollow @uncut jasper We banned this guy from our server for TKing people and being extremely toxic. Moderators of this server have been contacted
Sorted **SK1 **Admin BANNED for Spamming HLL discord
LOL, good looks
So basically...He freaked out because he was kicked from a group and tried to smear them?
it's not uncommon
Yeah, basically
At least that ReVz clan isn't still around, can't imagine how many people they'd piss off if they were on HLL
What I find wholesome about the commmunity is if someone is using a role new to them and learning the ropes, and someone starts slandering them, others are quick to jump up to tell them to back the hell off(fixed!).
Well yeah, I mean the way I personally see it.
We all started new...Plus chad never pushes down, only pushes up.
Ye boi. There was a game I had the other day where a whole bunch of us SLs couldn’t be bothered to take Commander role. So we conscripted a level 16 for the job. He did really well with three or or four SLs piping in now and again with tips when necessary.
I've only had a single questionable encounter on here so far.
But I've come to believe that person is a bit on the spectrum so it's all good.
Sometimes people can be a bit harsh especially to newer players, I don't agree with that and will usually try to get them to settle down.
Then there's people who get salty at their team...Like genuinely angry-salty...Well just can't help but laugh at.
I mean we all get a bit angry, sure. But when people get so butt-mad especially blaming the team they're apart of...Idk the irony's kinda funny.
Luckily, almost all of the trash in this Discord took itself out or stays in certain channels
In-game community has always been warm towards newbies, especially
I've only had one person freak out in game.
But yeah, I guess the trick is this lies in the sweet spot of being a bit too mil-sim for the average players who like more arcadey shooters
If you do run into people who are rude there's always just the mute option.
More people should use it.
and play on community servers that will ban people who are overly aggressive/toxic or harass people
Well he was having a bit of a fit...
I was just asking what his problem was and if he was alright?
Only seemed to get him even more angry, rest of the squad laughing him into silence...I mean I figured he knew he was being a bit of a git and embarrassed himself into being quiet the rest of the round.
any news on update 12?
sometime this month
hey guys
In @dawn widget we trust 🙏 🙌
How do you get better xp as support? I’ve seen people get to level 3 in about 4 games and Ive done…well lets just say a lot worse lol
I want to unlock the ammo carrier. Sounds like fun!
Same way you get more XP as any class, build a set of nodes then swap to the class you want to unlock
You will be loved by many AT soldiers and smoke grenade carriers when you drop the explosive boxes.
Real at guys use satchels
Downloading the game now, been playing enlisted but not much (or any) voice chat and teamwork on there. Looking forward to playing!
Finished my first match, I died a lot. haha
You got through it 😀
Get used to it lol, especially if you’re running SL or MG😂
It gets hard to spot targets but after maybe 10 matches you’ll have a lot of fun well at least for me anyhow I’ve played over 50 so far
Yeah I managed to get a couple of kills on my first match, defiantly looking to get some more experience.
Wait until you play as commander and get yelled at for everything going wrong 😪😂
haha i bet, I ended up being a squad leader at first. luckily someone took over for me.
Not as bad as a 1 man tank team
How do I get better
just be good
Build garries
Ask folks in-game in local or squad chat. Follow your squad leader if you don't know what else to be doing, literally stick to them like glue or until they tell you to do something specific. If not the squad leader, literally just cling to the closest guy next to you and follow them around as if they know what they're doing. Did they get shot going around a corner? Don't go that way.
Better yet, don't follow a mob. Squad size is ok but two or three squads all heading in the same narrow path? You're asking to get mowed down. I'd rather spend a minute taking a detour than a minute in the respawn screen followed by all the time getting back to the exact same spot to die on again.
There's a bunch of helpful videos in the #hll-guides area.
guys im considering refundin hll but i dont want to if that makes scence wat are yalls opinion
do whatever you want
i see
ya dig?
huh
Do you enjoy the game? Nay? Refund.
i engoy it but i suck:/
Literally everyone sucked at the game when they first picked it up, despite what people might say. Just gotta slog through what playstyle fits you. Most of the time it's just getting used to the game. Not much more than that I can tell you except what I told the last guy, go to #hll-guides and see what tips people dropped in there.
geez thx mate
And don't rage quit. You can't get better if you ain't playing.
facts
Any real point in NCO as officer?
Grenades
Does he get more than two? Don’t have him unlocked so I can’t tell.
Should be 3, NCO is all I run tbh. Just preference
maybe it’s gaming in general you’re bored of
Same deal but with a k98. My baby. Love that gun and loadout.
It's so satisfying but not very practical
Larger resolution monitor
Know the maps
Half the time when someone finds your garrison or OP it's because it's in the same spot people always end up sticking one
Blending in
An enemy won't care what class you are would they? They would just shoot you
I always made extra effort to kill SLs
Kill them, kill their OP, and the rest of them stop spawning
On the contrary, I keep an eye out for them. The moment you see one you just know there is going to be a Garry or OP nearby.
Irl for blending in, in HLL it’s also for blending in or you’re just Somalian
Same
When I really tried to blend in I'd use the default face with the default uniform, but usually style won out over substance
I mean unless you’re gonna face snipers and go face to face with the enemy blending in is kinda useless
And if you’re going face to face you want an SMG not a rifle
So I guess you can use the semi auto for blending in and just wear a stalhelm instead of a cap
I believe in semi-auto and MP40 supremacy
Based
I personally use semi-autos like 99% of the time, even in CQB, but I sometimes indulge in a little bit of MP40 head clicking
Chum being our resident master of MP40 head clicking
Yeah I always went for a semi auto except in rare circumstances
I'd take a Garand if I was playing US over the carbine for reasons of not standing out though.
Lol
And my own immersion tbh. US squad leaders were all SSGs or SGTs. They got issued a rifle like everyone else. The only way infantry got their hands on carbines was if they did some funky trades with rear echelon guys or stole them.
Kinda true
Not far off the mark tbh
I try to be both cuz an SL that keeps dying is kinda useless but an SL that doesn’t fight is even worse
M1 Carbine in this game really doesn't have an advantage over the Garand, anyway, except for mag size.
I'm going to use what is guaranteed to down you the fastest over mag capacity tbh
I think it still is in some circumstances, but not as far out as the other semi-autos can hit
Lemme see if someone has a spreadsheet
Nothing I can find right away that's current/updated, ugh
Crazy how this game's been going for 5+ years and no concrete references are around except for DIY spreadsheets that some random might have
My time maining SL mostly consisted of BSing with the pubs who had mics and doing my best to keep them engaged and entertained enough to go along with whatever lengthy flanking maneuver I had in mind.
This was also back in the days of putting nodes as far forward as possible... Before supply trucks. so I often had the unfortunate task of doing that because nobody else would. Which means half my squad is running around headless while me, the supply guy (RIP, you killed yourself a lot) and the engi were off in a corner somewhere far away from everything building.
Actually, looks like the wiki is finally catching up, looked barebones last time I checked
Supply was a thankless job
Does the G43 still have a longer OHK range than the Garand?
Nope, identical
At one point it was like a 50m difference longer. Oversight from a hasty patch.
Find a friend and get to shooting I guess
I know people like Chum and a few others did some testing, but I don't have those clips on hand lmao
That's how they found out that console has bugged bullet damage and SMGs were OHKing within 100m
I am new to the game and looking to learn more and/or get with a group. Is this the best place for that?
check pins here for resources, groups will be in #pc-divisions-recruitment or #pc-looking-for-unit
anyone know the archetype of the* ignite the forge* deck? i can't seem to find it.
wrong chat i think bud, but hey maybe someone here knows
Is there a fun way to play with only 2 to 3 people? I’ve tried fighting in the front lines but without a full squad its a little difficult to feel like I’m making a difference. We’ve tried tanks but we really need infantry support to make them better. Thoughts?
Artillery
Squad lead calls out targets, throws down a ping then each squad member targets 50m left of ping, ping and 50m right of ping then fires on command, 2 shells each
Anything other than arty?
(I do really like artillery, just trying to sus out options :D)
3 people is the magic number for a tank, you can always just put yourself in the middle of infantry
Could run recon but I’m no good at it
Nobody is until they are
Follow me for more inspirational quotes
Smash that like and follow button below 👇 🔔✅
Arty, tanks
You can always just join an existing squad and play with them
Maybe you can attack but instead of going head on flank
3 man AT crew
FIFTY MAN AT CREW
peak performance gaming
You may not like it but that’s what peak male performance looks like
Hi , where would be the best place to find "clans" to play with. I'm on Europe region mainly on series x. would like to have more structured play rather than joining random servers and squads.
#console-divisions-recruitment would be my guess
SL, and two guys rotating support/whatever. Flank to set up sneaky garrisons behind enemy lines (rotating supports to drop supplies), snipe enemy tanks coming to the fight etc, essentially become a semi-recon unit. I've had some fun games with my friends doing that.
sooooo like,how does this server work
From what I can see it's mostly whining about the state of the game
whining about the lack of news about the update
whining about off topic items
whining about how the vision during kickstarter is totally gone and it's an acadey mess right now
Ready, set, go!
so basically just a bunch of whining?
Welcome to the HLL Discord 😄
how do the roles work tho?
do the roles get changed the longer you stay in the server or?
Some are clickable, some are time-based
The roles are either management people (mods, people who work at BMS or T17), kick starter people or the occasional other thing like war correspondent or aranger.

Sorted BANNED.
any news on update 12?
Sometime this month, probably a Tuesday
ok, thank you
I'm sure when it's a week or less out they will do a dev brief just like for U11
Yes, Sometime this month, probably a Tuesday
Anyone know if when you host a server you can choose which missions are next?
I kind of hate attack and defend but LOVE warfare. If I snag my own server can I choose only Warfare maps?
You can choose the map rotation yes.
But be aware it isn't as simple as just paying for a server, you have to seed the server (kick start it with a batch of players every day so that random players will show up) and it requires active moderation to, even if vote kicks are enabled.
Seed the server like 4 people? I have a small group of friends but I don’t have 15 of them lol
Well, realistically speaking 4 people isn't enough no, because what's going to happen is the larger communities out there are going to have more than 4 people, they'll pile on, and players that are looking to join a server that isn't full are much more likely to go to a server that has say 10 or 15 people on it than one that has 4.
You'll end up in perpetual seeding hell where you have those couple people on, but you just keep getting jumped.
You can hop on https://www.battlemetrics.com/servers/hll/ and filter down to servers for your region, servers that aren't empty, sort descending, and at the time of day you're trying to seed you can see the competition.
I mean you can certainly try, I don't want to discourage you just make you aware of the actual amount of work you're setting out to undertake.
It's hard to boot strap a community and it takes a community to make a community server successful.
So just an example, https://www.battlemetrics.com/servers/hll?minPlayers=2&countries=DE&sort=players that's just Germany (I can't do the US right now because it's the wrong time of day) but you can see how there's quite a few servers with just a couple of people on.
How would you recommend I get server pop to increase? Are there people willing to help me seed? I would be up for moderating and helping the community grow
82nd AD and 16th IR in that example are going to suck up all the players until they fill up.
#pc-seeding-help but I wouldn't count on that at all. You can also try just joining an existing community, different places manage their map pools in different ways.
and it's not that you can't make a community, just starting from scratch is hard, you could get a discord, get all your friends and try to get some of them to find friends and so on, if you get that small nucleus you can grow from there but it's tough.
Hm. I may have too small of a friend group to jump start a server then. I really like this game and want to be part of the community but for the love of god I despise offense and defense. Warfare is more my pace lol
and if the only thing you're looking to do is pick maps, I'd just join an existing community that lets you give input on the map rotation. What region are you in?
You may want to give NPA a look, they have two servers, I believe one of them is west.
Usually full up sadly
Yeah the server queue struggle is real.
Kinda why I wanted to make a server as well. All my friends have a hub to hang out in without worrying about ques ;D
For sure, you could always give it a shot for a few months and see how it goes if you don't mind spending the money (you have to pay one of the service providers, there's no privately hosted HLL servers)
If you don't want to try to set up/host the server management software (RCON, there's a free community version) Battlemetrics has a paid version of that as well.
But you could pay for VIP to a server all year for yourself for what it would cost you to host a HLL server for a month, maybe less.
For instance for a 100 player server from Nitrado you're looking at about $90/month, you can get VIP on different community servers for anywhere from $5-10/month, it's going to depend on the community and how many servers they run and so forth.
Gotcha
Welp. Maybe I’ll just tough it out. If I had more friends playing this game then I’d absolutely love having my own server.
Price isn’t much of a deterrent. I like the game and its community enough 😄
There's all sorts of NA communities out there, maybe just play on some different NA ones and if you find one you like most of them have discords.
I’ll have to see. I appreciate the heads up. I might lay the foundation for a discord and get some random extra people to join in for seeding help.
hmm Thursday is a nice date ^^
I have so much belive in this update since last year they can't achieve expectations^^
I was a shy at first, but all the players are super supportive of newbies like me.
For sure. If the squad is communicating with each other you're almost guaranteed to have a good experience. The skill and experience is irrelevant
Hi guys. Potential new player here.
fresh meat
I am a new player but I like...really wish I had nabbed this game back at launch cause...DAMN. Talk about missing out.
Yeah I'm just doing a little research before slamming the buy button.
I sat on the fence between this and Post Scriptum for about a week. Went with HLL as it seems a bit more forgiving than PS.
The less you know the better it will feel, I think. You should play a few rounds as a basic class before delving deeper into the meta of things. Just enjoy the chaos and not knowing anything
I'm coming from many years over in Planetside 2. Never been big into historicals, so I thought this would be fun.
I never played PS2 but I came from...well all of the Battlefields and that puts me at a serious mental disadvantage. I know this game is very very different but my brain keeps going back to those tactics. My favorite friend in this game is a bullet. We're close all the time!
Hehe. Yeah, interestingly, I've never played any other shooters.
From what I have seen. Any metric that other FPS games use to determine "skill" are totally pointless here. Or seemingly so. Those guys that go 75-0 running around with their smg would almost assuredly downvote HLL. Most weapons kill with one shot, you have nothing to tell you a grenade is nearby, hell even incoming arti is a guessing game on where it's gonna land. It's a blast.
@brazen apex @west dawn check this out first it may help you both: Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fj6EHiW3EXg
This is my idea of an unskippable less than 5min intro video for the game.
I changed the title because maybe it was too aggressive.

@glad pasture Awesome! I'll check that out!
LOL Monospacial is how I ended up here actually. Been watching them almost none stop. Thanks!
Im literally watching this right now
Could I ask a couple of newbie questions?
we are here to help
How's progression? It seems like HLL has been out for a while. Am I permanently behind? Or can I catch up in ... I guess.. levels?
As you play you will progress and rank-up in weapons and loadouts it’s the same for all new players. Jump into a community server and tell them you’re a NEW player many will help and guide you. You do need a headset and mic for communication. You can also check here for other information. #pc-looking-for-unit and #pc-divisions-recruitment Instructional videos are here: #hll-guides and #hll-videos
Awesome. Thanks!
Next question, should I go ahead and get all these DLC packs from the start? Pretty good number of them.
I...never even noticed DLC lol
It’s a personal choice if you can afford them YES.
Good to know. Yeah seems like not too much with the bundle discount.
DLC just cosmetics?
Thanks
Is the game pretty populated around this time of day? I can't really play US evening, only day time.
You can filter BM to your region and see, there's pretty much always a server to play on
Oh nice! Yeah I'll bookmark that for sure. Thanks!
But pretty much you just hop in client and turn on whatever filters you want and sort by ping
It can be tough to get into full servers, but if you find a server that has say 40-80 people on it (and it isn't the middle of the night) it will fill quickly
Otherwise you'll end up fighting the queue a bit if the server is full.
Gotcha, yeah the server arrangement will be new to me, for sure.
for now
Lost the match but was the best game I played, 11 infantry kills. Watching youtube defiantly helps. Don't sprint everywhere, keep your head on a swivel, stay in cover or concealment.
turn left
Lol
He probably means hit A on your keyboard to turn left, because the shooter can only turn left/right so far and it's slower, the loader has faster adjustments
and can go further
Yep, loader is coarse adjust, gunner is fine adjustment
Well I don't know why he was complaining then, that's all it means to traverse
Just had an epic battle on Foy as Americans, we were attacking the final point being held down by 4+ MG-42s, and two tanks supported by infantry. The amount of gunfire was astounding
Fights like those make me keep playing for hours on end
Anyone want to make a armor squad?
you still on?
What does it mean when it says someone is "seeding"?
That's when you take a server from 0 players to a self sustaining population, most servers will have different rules to facilitate that
Such as only fighting over the mid point and preventing the use of armor and artillery but it depends on the server
Have to kick start it with a batch of people because nobody is joining an empty server, but once you get 10 or 15 people they'll start to show up
And.. people pay for private servers to show up on the list?
Yes there are both official servers provided by the developers and privately run (community) servers that are paid for by the members, most servers pay for it by letting paying members skip the queue for a few bucks a month
Theres only a small number of companies allowed to host HLL servers so you have to pick from those, prices vary depending on options but i think they're all under $100 or so a month
Gotcha. Thanks!
quite want the winter warfare head gear
^
maybe this december it'll return
It’s halal
Should I always try to play the same role as a new player? Or, sort of a similar group of roles? (Support or Engi, etc)
Play whatever role you want, it's really not a big deal.
Fair enough, I was just trying to be efficient. Especially as some roles have similar skill sets.
Your individual roles have less impact than most (new) players think
If you're willing to rotate through support when the SL needs a box of supplies to build a garry you're doing better than 75% of the player base pretty much
Beyond that if you are in a cap zone and/or not actively attacking while your team is losing its points you're probably at the 95th percentile

OH MY GOD ITS COMING YES YES

Excited about the bridge map
Thanks
Anyone got theories on when the British Army might be coming? Update 13 perhaps?
I kind of see HLL as Red Orchestra 3
My hope is that the Japanese Imperial Army will be introduced too 🙃
Update 12 hasn’t even dropped yet my guy
I want jeeps. But also being able to mount MG on the jeep.
I fear that's going to be abused to a certain degree
laughs in Pak40
So would the German deployable hmg just be a mg42 since they didn’t use heavy machine guns ?
They said they plan on it, but nothing official I don’t think.
hey, press K, write anything and press enter
should be fixed
it happens quite often to me and thankfully I figured the fix for it 👍
Thanks man.
np!
They are expecting updates 12 and 13 across all platforms by end of 2022.
It is quite possible update 13 will be British forces, because in early summer devs reiterated their intention to release British forces also by end of 2022.
this is nothing directly about the game but about the discord. i cannot select any role in the language channel, are they unavailable atm or did i overread sth?
Yeah
yeah what?
No
You’re right, doesn’t seem to work
Bots probably broken a mod can probably manually assign you the language you want
Lenovo - Legion 5 - Gaming Laptop - AMD Ryzen 7 5800H - 16GB RAM - 512GB Storage - NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050Ti - 15.6" FHD Display - Windows 11 Home - Phantom Blue https://a.co/d/1u8VIod
Would this laptop be able to run Hell Let Loose at atleast 60 fps?
Is this where the noobs go
Just popping in to say hi.
At 1080p? More than likely. The CPU will be doing the heavy lifting
Thanks
Does anyone know who I should get in contact with to have my ban looked at? At the very least I would like to know what triggered it so that it doesn't happen again.
I miss playing HLL
Just send your Steam ID to one of the mods, probably Corex and the reason you think you should be unbanned.
“I am cool”
Hey anybody know any servers to find a stack to play with, preferable in the Australian servers?
are there any good servers for learning roles without annoying the rest of the team? I wanna learn the tank roles and stuff like the drop on anti tank without disrupting normal games :p
Check here #hll-guides and #hll-videos
Thank you for responding. Corex is unavailable to send my steam ID too and I feel bothersome picking a random mod or dev to send my troubles towards.
Do I have your permission to message Corex with this?
Just to clarify are you EAC banned or just banned from specific servers
If it's the second you would have to appeal to individual servers that banned you
EAC. They are helping me out.
Wdym
If you have ever seen camo netting you will be aware that it’s intended to either hide the equipment from the enemy or break up the lines of whatever it’s hiding. When your anti tank gun fires it’s no longer a priority to be hidden, heavy guns are not (typically) used with nets as they impede the function of the equipment
Ah okay
Two more updates are being developed right now. There's still plenty of content to come this year
I'm not super new, but can someone explain what these mean on the maps? I get that the points can be randomly picked, but the resource/node markers?
Just out dated. You used to get some extra resources for holding points
Funny how they still include them on new map(s) though, wonder if they’re thinking about bringing it back in some iteration eventually
Unlikely, but man that's a throwback
BUT WHY HAVE IT THEN

?
