Does Update 15.3 and Update 16 mean Hell Let Loose is ending 2024 on a high? Are you excited for 2025?

[@bennyfagor104]

If the team manages to hire a new full-time Community Manager and some more devs, I'll definitely be excited for 2025. That's the only thing really damaging the game at the moment due to a lack of regular communication about future updates, and the big time gaps between updates. Getting more devs also allows for better more varied content.

[@DriveByBacon]

Elsenborn Ridge looks like it could be a good map but we really need more depth added to the game. Dynamic weather is nice but what about a tank overhaul, with opening hatches and a more sophisticated damage system. Mortars to replace Arty on the map? More early war content, there is a lot of stuff which could be added, this game has lots of potential.

[@IronHeartGamingYT]

@@bennyfagor104 Yeah better comms would be great, they did just release Update 15.3 and give a sneak peek for Update 16 but I guess we want more consistent news/info about development

[@snellproductions1209]

⁠@@DriveByBaconi would say add morters, keep arty. only allow maybe two squads to have a morter squad.

[@Aetlaify]

I'll make it short and simple about what I'd real like to see: * remove static artillery and replace it with a commander ability to prevent recon & arty loop. * introduce mortar squads ( two squads per team ) and balance it proper * armour rework! this is a big one since I'm a dedicated tanker. I'd strongly suggest HLL devs to take a look upon SQ44 armour meta. * more gadgets for existing classes. like rifle grenades, magnetic mines, hawkins mines, bundled grenades. * and lastly class balance!

[@IronHeartGamingYT]

Team17 give this guy a job

[@hamzakhalil-gs7oc]

remove static artillery and replace it with a commander ability to prevent recon & arty loop. * introduce mortar squads ( two squads per team ) and balance it proper these two will make the game so much better

[@Aetlaify]

Thank you guys! I'm more interested in improved meta and extra tools and ways to enjoy HLL experience which is already quite ok and solid. New maps, new skins, map refreshes and etc. they're all fine and most welcome but I think after five years we might and should expect to see something new to learn and play the game in a truly refreshed manner. I hope T17 focuses on such matters as well delivering new maps and goodies.

[@eddiesantamaria617]

Something I really hope to see in 2025 are more maps featuring the British, especially more North African maps, perhaps even Greece or Southern Italy.

[@IronHeartGamingYT]

Monte Cassino would be cool, yes for more British maps!

[@K-Nyne]

I wanna see Sword Beach. Perfect opportunity to go from a beach landing immediately into an urban environment, and then into fields with a fortified highground. Would be a unique map. Gold Beach could work for that too

[@palpatinoshades923]

some greek maps would be cool against the italias

[@bassarana]

Yes indeed!! I totally agree with you😊

[@Jamesbond-u12]

Yea the players in the game would share a perfect similarity for Italian soldiers They’re too scared to push to the objective.

[@aroundazief]

Palermo, Anzio, Monte Casino ! We want Italy maps and in the near future... Berlin !

[@yevgeny79]

Berlin would be epic. A proper city map. I am not downgrading Stalingrad, but by comparison to Berlin it's a glorified potato farm. imagine defending Reichstag as zee Germans? Maybe a little underground tunnel action in the fuhrer bunker?

[@Au55The3oss5]

Monte casino would be spectacular to experience seeing that it’s a very overshadowed battled. Bc the legit day the Allie’s won that fight we also participated in the DDay landing on June 6th so overlord overshadowed casino

[@lurkk4869]

I will admit my mind changed on a Pacific update, I’d rather them make the game really good at everything it does currently than make that risky jump

[@Verdun16]

Some 1940 French maps would also be cool someday

[@ulf793]

Some recognition of the British would be a start!, Neither current map is technically fully British as "El Alamein" could be Aussie or New Zealanders aswell as British & "Driel" was a Polish Airborne operation. The battle to & take 'Caen" is one of the most important battles of WW2 yet T17 keep pushing American maps "Caen" would be mainly a British & Canadian series of maps which they could do using Sword, Juno or Gold beaches as map 1 then add three or four maps to"Caen" as they've done with "Omaha" & "Utah".

[@sdm6054]

Yea it's irritating because Northern Africa was actually the amalgamation of several separate military forces. ANZAC - Australian and New Zealand forces Canada British India And there are some I'm missing as well.

[@zehi04]

Freelook and changeable weather will definitely be a great addition to the dynamic of the game

[@skag_mcmuffin87gaming51]

Less maps with poor visibility. Fixing the performance of Stalingrad. Fix the issues with mounting machine guns. More Russian and British maps. A new Axis faction with some weapon variety - this could fit in with more British maps - give us Sicily & Italy The Battle for France (1940)

[@Echo_III]

Free look, always run key, visible legs and torso (even 2001 Operation Flashpoint has it...).

[@Saaarmbii]

Looks like a very solid update to finish the year 🙌🙌

[@bradleykaufman8824]

Even if they just *teased* us with a concept of the pacific theater I'd stay playing another 3 years.

[@blem5376]

Ew hopefully not more Americans

[@Bigchungus69488]

This is seriously all that they have been working on...

[@IronHeartGamingYT]

They are adding freelook in the next update, Update 16

[@lankyjeep8432]

We need more British maps, and also more factions in general, it was a WORLD war, not just 1943-1945 Europe, would love to see a Finland winter war map, and the addition of the Pacific and even early war invasion of France, maybe even Dunkirk

[@FatboyGengiz]

Two great updates to end the year. I'd love to see another British map next year - there are all sorts of possibilities!

[@kennethbowers2897]

How about more Eastern Front maps and the British getting more attention as well? I am so tired of hearing rumors and statements about new theaters being opened when previous ones have been lackluster in content and variety.

[@IronHeartGamingYT]

Tobruk and Juno beach are rumoured for the Brits

[@Wafflez-Man-YT]

More and more maps. That's the MAIN thing. And ofcourse we need the Pacific next year.

[@jag3rb0mb]

I hope they finally get off their asses and fix the crashing, stutter, and frame drops on console.

[@aaronblacke6425]

Not map related but it would be cool if we could unlock custom loadout for each class at say lvl 10 of the class. I understand it would need to be limited for instance stg44 can’t make its way out of assault or automatic rifleman. But if we could eventually mix and match what we have work with from a class it could be really fun for veteran players and something very exciting for a new player to work towards.

[@IronHeartGamingYT]

This could get unbalanced. Players would just pick the most OP loadouts. I don’t really see the need for custom loadouts.

[@aaronblacke6425]

@@IronHeartGamingYT again I don’t think anything should be making its way out into other classes. I’m pretty Shure most people already use the most op loadouts that are available.

[@atso_4128]

[@_BadCompany_]

Rework the commander airdrop ability to function differently. I think it should act as a limited aerial spawn point that you actually parachute down from. Seeing waves of parachute landing in your backyard would be nuts! 😮

[@CerexOmnia]

*airhead

[@IronHeartGamingYT]

It would be cool but I think loads of paratroopers would get shot before they landed lol.

[@_BadCompany_]

@IronHeartGamingYT Sounds like Hell Let Loose to me. Besides, what's the difference between that, and getting camped at the spawn point?

[@Spitfire_1940]

I am hoping they are cooking stuff in the background and were just really nervous about announcing anything before they could deliver and will have more content for the next year.

[@AGreat1___PS5]

This game will not die !

[@sdm6054]

We need new maps that haven't been done by any game before. Plenty of suggestions here. My suggestions are Oceania - Kakoda Track SEA - Singapore SEA - Burma We could do with some incredible famous battle arenas that have, as far as I know, never been done before. EVERY game does Iwo Jima, let's try something different for a change from the pacific. Italy is an awesome suggestion as well.

[@rudigrudi4898]

I love all this, but I really want Berlin map !! 🫡🏛️

[@hootscooter1075]

You know what I want? Weapon selection, I get that a riflemen will have their military issued rifles, but this was the age of trophy hunters. There is photo evidence of soldiers rocking picked up weapons, so I don’t see why after leveling up enough you can’t change out your main weapon.

[@joshuahsmith8192]

Respectfully, we don’t want more COD‘s or Battlefields, if you want to customize a Loadout go play those titles. Keep Squad44 and HLL pure

[@IronHeartGamingYT]

Also it could lead to more friendly fire, if I hear an MP40 or STG44 firing in a building I’m going to throw a grenade in there. But it could be a friendly using enemy weapons …

[@sethhauck1283]

Or how about they release the Polish and Finnish like they were suppose to and abandon this, whole idea of Skirmish mode waste of development time. Warfare and Offensive should be the main focus and fixing legacy issues should be also on the top priority. Finally, they need to update the game to the latest unreal engine 4.27 which, was the last update for it which released in 2021.

[@IronHeartGamingYT]

Too many gamers are like clingy gf’s or bf’s communication this and that. Doesn’t anyone like pleasant surprises?? You get updates, and still mad cuz they didn’t tell you weeks ago that it’s coming? I don’t get the neediness lol.

[@IronHeartGamingYT]

People just prefer consistent news rather than weeks of nothing and then a big info dump.

[@chadgrov]

@@IronHeartGamingYT I get it but it gets taken too far, because at the end of the day, the game is evidently still being cared for and a pleasant surprise is better than nothing happening whatever. I agree they could maybe hype stuff up and be upfront about what’s next? The free look that’s coming with Elsenborn? I had to just watch a KZbin show some PTE. watched the official T17 video for the map and don’t recall any mention of free look. Stuff like this would be nice to be communicated. But at the end of the day it’s good news, I just wish ppl weren’t so greedy and needy to know every single thing T17 is cooking up at all times. just be grateful it’s not abandoned and they’re committed to continuing adding maps and mechanics and bug fixes.

[@chost-059]
