Hell Let Loose - Before You Buy

Hell Let Loose (PC, PS5, Xbox Series X/S) is a WW2 FPS with an interesting twist. How is it? Let's talk.

One of the coolest parts of this game is the fact all the maps are made from Modern Satellite data and reconnaissance photos from WWII. You are inhabiting the actual battlefields not just a level designers take on the map.

Back at it again with another episode of “Already Bought It And Confirming My Purchase Was Worth It.”

This game makes you appreciate how it was a friggin miracle that our grandfathers survived in the first place.

This game is quite literally the absolute closest you can get to truly feeling like you’ve stepped foot directly into Saving Private Ryan or Band of Brothers.

Hell Let Loose has been everything that I wished Battlefield was. Teamwork and objectives ACTUALLY matter in this game, instead of just being the bullet-sponge grindfest that Battlefield has become.

I like playing medic because everyone loves you, protects you, and you interact with people more

[shrpnss]

There is something about hearing your teammates screaming at the top of their lungs to be revived that is immersive but at the same time hilarious😂

If everyone in your squad uses their mic, this game is close to the best FPS experience you can get

I use Youtube daily for 12 years now for 3 hours a day at least. And this is my first comment: I just want to say in my 20 years of gaming this is the single best game I've ever played. Thanks for keeping my pandemic, friends and adictive gaming up forever

I was playing this for the first time the other day and I was running down this long path (was a scout), didn't really know what I was doing, but I remember just seeing a bunch of explosions in the air in the distance. That was immersive af, knowing actual players was going through the shit. The fact that my area was calm and quiet, but I KNOW other players were going through hell in their areas lol.

Even being "bad" at FPS you can still have a huge impact on the game by playing engineer, medic, or support. Engineers build nodes that give the commander resources. Medics can revive and heal people. Support can drop supplies to build garrisons.

It's fun when people actually play with their unit.

Played on PC and the moment that made me fall in love with the game was when my squad was sent ahead to hold an intersection. We met an enemy squad and I was the only survivor and our squad spawn was destroyed. So I set up in the attic of a building looking at a field then I see about 20 Germans sprinting across. I set up my bipod and just mowed them down. I held that position down long enough for reinforcements until a Pather sent a shell straight through my head.

This game takes me back to being a kid. Haven’t been this immersed in a video game in a couple decades

This game is a blast. The best advice I can give anyone struggling is don't worry about you K/D. One of my favorite games we were defending a town center. Enemy infantry were firing from all directions, tanks were pulling down the road ahead of us, and then there's me. The squad engineer. Ducking bullets and tank shells with a hammer and wrench in my hands building fortifications for the team. We ended up winning heavily because of the barbed wire and barricades I built. Kills in this game are no where near the most valuable contribution you can provide

God this game needs more attention. It's the best ww2 game since world at war I swear.
Don't be put off by the difficulty at first because once you have sunk your teeth into this game it's amazing.

[mariusj]

insurgency sandstorm and Hell let loose both released on consoles. Awesome to see these two well established hardcore fps games on playstations and xboxes.

This game is really fun to play. Pretty hard-core FPS.

[thecomfyshirt]

Oh I’m definitely getting this game. My favorite part of the battlefield series is when you have a good squad working together and you pull off some spectacular stuff like 4 guys taking a fortified position they had no business taking. Or escaping from an overrun position by the skin of your teeth because your teamwork was on point. Deciding the best course of action in the heat of battle, making strategic choices in a split second, that’s what I love.

If He’ll Let Loose focuses on this type of experience, I’m all over it.

[chriscarlone]

My favorite game since the days of Halo 3. Seriously, the teamwork and immersion is just simply fantastic.

They made a great game. There are some quirks that irritate me, like being unable to place ammunition or outposts in certain spots, vehicle physics and just phasing through walls but getting stopped by bushes two feet high.

Make sure you communicate and your squad has mics, you need good comms and good plans to win at this game. It's difficult to pick up at first but once you get it down, you will love it. I put hundreds of hours into this game and it paid off greatly. I even run my own server with some friends now and it's just an all around wonderful game to experience with others and I wouldn't want it any other way.
