HLL had a lot of potential with Black Matter. They sold out almost 3 years ago and Team 17, the new devs, have proven their #1 priority for the game is $10 DLC haircuts and historically inaccurate uniforms. I was a Kickstarter for Black Matter in 2018, tried to give Team 17 a benefit of doubt but realized this last year that HLL will be lucky to get more than maybe 1-2 maps and a feature add every 3 years. Oh, but there will be 6+ DLCs in that time. If you like HLL & Team 17, that’s great, but don’t except much more from Team 17. If you like a tactical ww2 milsim with a ton of potential & a growing community then Squad 44 is it. I’m pumped because Squad 44 might become what us early kickstarters of HLL always wanted in a ww2 shooter.
HLL is aimed toward drop in drop out, non committal multiplayer. It's less realistic, more arcadey, both serve a purpose to me, but IMO Squad 44 is better
Join us for some Post Scriptum Realism Mod. You'd probably love the mod dude. We have events every week, as well as years long campaigns. Lets talk. Great video, love to see support for Squad 44, it always needs it!
Great intro and then good gameplay. I too have been playing this for years and agree it's the best ww2 fps squad game. Looking forward to the January release of Pacific theatre
The intro was dope, like a gaming advertisement sizzle reel. Also watching you get clapped after "Two World Wars" locked open at the halfway point of your G19's mag made me chuckle. This game does look dope but I owe my soul to POE2 right now.
Love your squad44/post scriptum content. Wish I could run into you in game. Heads up, enemy rallies can be taken out by holding F now. The bar may disappear, it's a bug, but it will take it down if you keep holding.
It was more fun than squad until they revised the ico system, now they’re both a lot of fun but this one does feel a little more satisfying at times and I feel like my “squad” can have a huge impact on the game which I feel squad rarely has those moments, you need atleast two full squads and maybe some armor to make a big difference in squad but squad44 you’re small little unit and really turn the tide. I regularly get 20-30kill games in squad44, but squad with the update I got a 24kill game for the first time in ages so I’m pretty excited for both
@@ControlledPairsGaming I have tried both HLL and Squad 44 multiple times and i cant enjoy them at all. They are simply too slow. There is just lot of walking and shooting at small pixels at distance. Maps are too big and lack attention to detail. Both games also have serious performance issues. These videos on youtube with montages from HLL and Squad look great, but that is like 10% of the game. Its nothing like that, when you actually play it. In RO2 you have these thrilling, exciting moments 10 secs after spawn.
The reason it’s not as popular as HLL is because it lacks any sort of leveling system, progression, customization of any sort etc. the game is not as replayable. You get bored when there’s no progression. Less of a reason to continue playing
no, the lack of leveling system isn't it, it's just casual players that want a so called "realistic war game" go to hell let lose, I play both but I do agree that hell let loose is very arcady compare to squad44.
HLL is a great, casual, arcade-style, frag fest that most gamers will probably enjoy more. PS is significantly less forgiving, requires teamwork, and simply brutal. I love it, many won't. It's hard.
It's absolutely replayable when you are simply there to enjoy decent gameplay. Naturally, nowadays' players have such a short attention span that they need something to "grind" for, they can't just enjoy good games anymore
At time i write this comment no one except paris and maybe a few people on the entire world can not tell 100% content of this video with 100% certainty
CANNOT WAIT for the pacific update, it's about to bring back red orchestra banzai charges bringing memories back
Classic!
Will never understand how people think HLL is better and smoother than this. Easier to learn and faster paced, sure. But better, never.
It's a fun casual frag fest. I like it when I'm solo or just chillin. But yeah Squad 44 is GOATed on the Milsim/teamwork front.
Amen to that!

HLL is my go-to queueing for 20 minutes to get onto a server simulator.

Is it actually free? Just looked and it said 20$
Scratch that i figured it out lol. Love the videos as always
Free weekend
Great seeing you play PS again, I meant Squad 44.
So F’ing glad this game is getting the recognition it deserves.. see y’all in the battlefield 🫡
Old school pairs video vibes!
HAHA, "this" is where I "met" him! 😁🪖
Making videos for fun is the best!
@@controlled-pairs It's been a long time comin'! 😁

That was such a nice intro to hype up the ones that are getting to know the game now

We miss you dude, jump in more often🍻😀 game is Great, been playing and recording rounds for few years now
I bought a new PC just for games like Squad 44. Bought it on sale, I can't wait. I've been wanting to play Post Scriptum for over 4 years now.
Your initial videos on Post Scriptum were one of the reasons I picked this game up. I never stopped playing, almost 2k hours in 😂
They just need more people playing
That intro is better than any commercial I’ve seen for the game
Are you also gonna play enlisted?
I have. It's cool for a free game. Not my thing.
gonna try it on free weekend for sure, looks more fun than HLL since its squad but ww2 looking forward to it.
fucking love your vids man makes me want to get the time and money for a pc
Legend 👊
Loved the intro!
Pulling that knife was cold as fuck.
That shit was wild bro!
great intro! it’s great to see you kicking ass in an old school title. also, really dig the music. what’s the track?
Love your squad44/post scriptum content. Wish I could run into you in game. Heads up, enemy rallies can be taken out by holding F now. The bar may disappear, it's a bug, but it will take it down if you keep holding.
That first trench clear was smooth

Damn pairs, double upload day!
Same, i think this is my gavorite WWII game
Anybody knows why I only see like 4 servers every time? I Can't find any servers on this game...
Game is actually dead. Even though its free weekend i saw that it only had 3000 players playing
"only"
IWO JIMA PLAYTEST TOMORROW
or you can play actual best WW2 FPS ever: Red Orchestra 2 for 17.99 right now
Red Orchestra still holds up, tbh. I hit it once or twice a year. Was definitely the precursor to stuff like this.

The BEST RTS ever!
hll better imo
Very different games
Imagine this game with the squad ICO💀
No
As much as I love ICO this game doesn't really need it as weapon lethality here in ww2 setting is far less compared to modern weapons
@@m1sz3lpl24yes 556 does far more harm than a 303
@flowerpower003 ah yes, completely disregard the volume of fire a rifleman can put down in each game
@flowerpower003 irrelevant, you'll die either way.
WW2 online still the best. Nothing compares to it
It's incredible, but it requires you to devote your life to it lol.
@@ControlledPairsGamingyes it does, but man was it fun when I played it
Another WWII FPS? I'm tired boss, been playing them since 1999 with medal of honor
15:16 lol
0:58 BRUH
Damnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn 😮😮😮😮😮
Sadly i cant run it....
Post scriptum still better than
Please god stop team killing and play the objective

I played for 15 minutes and deleted it. This game is ass.
Na the best of the is easy red 2 from first world war until modern war with this dlcs free and for buy
Nothing touches the atmosphere, intensity and teamwork that you get in HLL. Best WWII game ever made for me. Nice vid as usual though.
