Hell Let Loose: Vietnam - Trailer

It looks really fucking good, I'm so happy we're finally getting a game like this set in Vietnam.
I really hope taking out helis with RPGs is not as easy as they made it look in that trailer though.
 
Hopefully they put some extra effort into getting the weapons audio right, as that was a major area where HLL fell flat compared to competitors like Post Scriptum or Red Orchestra/Rising Storm.
 
I have loved and played the first one religiously for years now. It's my go-to game. After seeing this trailer, I can't wait. It looks awesome. I hope the community embraces it just as well.
 


Announced during this year's action-packed Galaxies Showcase, Team17 and Expression Games are thrilled to reveal that signups are now open for upcoming playtests. Players can register their interest to be one of the first to step into the fury of the brutal Vietnam War using the link above or scanning the QR code in the trailer.

This explosive new trailer sets the stage with fierce aerial combat, claustrophobic firefights set in dense jungle environments and iconic patrol boats engaging in brutal strategic river pursuit.
 
Ooh nice, we don't get enough Vietnam games, Rising Storm was brilliant. I hope they fix a lot of the HLL QOL issues with this though, build it on a newer version of the engine and fix some jank. Wonder how the original HLL will be supported after this.
I think the last one I played was Shellshock on PS2.
 
Absolutely terrible official footage. What the hell is that awful motion blur
I agree, quality is bad and there is no communication or teamplay - that's what HLL is all about
Game itself looks alright IMO

FYI for people. The og hell let loose guys are working on an extraction shooter called Hunger.

HLL is being maintained by a new studio that team 17 setup. It's not clear who has been working on this game but I'm skeptical either way.
Kinda off-topic but Hunger looks fucking cool. I'll play it on console when it hits in 2048 🥲
 


If you're craving a slow, communications-heavy milsim that respects your time enough to punish you for misusing it, and you don't mind working around some preview-build roughness and a learning curve that hasn't softened much, Hell Let Loose: Vietnam looks like it's still very much itself. That's a good thing if you already loved this series, and a warning if you didn't. Previewed by Gabriel Moss

PC Steam Open Beta Weekend

Following an incredible closed beta weekend which saw just shy of 20,000 players come and play, test and enjoy Hell Let Loose: Vietnam, we are now ready to move to our next phase of testing.

We will be running a free-to-play open Beta weekend on the Thanh Hóa Bridge map, taking place on May 29 to June 1. The details are as follows:

Start Date/Time: May 29, 10AM BST End Date/Time: June 1, 10AM BST Platform: PC Steam Map: Thanh Hóa Bridge

As this will be open beta, any who would like to join on Steam will be able to do so. We'll be sharing more details via FirstLook.gg before the open beta begins, stay tuned for more details!
 
I really didn't like Hell Let loose at all so I will be waiting for a free weekend. It's tough because Battlefield bad company Vietnam was one of my all time favorite multiplayer games.
