@@deavy2121HLL has crossplay so playerbase is way bigger. Given how console lack any true tactical/milsim games, I assume HLL is very popular amongst console players
What are you talking about? A lot of things are just wrong. S44 has more maps than HLL and they are a lot bigger. Up to 10ish times. Contentwise SQ44 offers a lot more. More weapons, more vehicles (lol), more theatres and gamemodes that are actually played. It doesnt even come close. VOIP in HLL is notorious unreliable and so many ppl dont talk (thanks Gamepass). These are just a few things.
That's not it, SQ44 is just not fun. If there was a game in between HLL and SQ44, it would be perfect. I do like a lot about PS44 I just constantly find the gameplay loop to not be fun.
I prefer squad 44 over HLL. Used to enjoy HLL when it was a bit more realistic on launch but changes they have made just lost me (gear throw changes to tanks, almost all new vics being automatic transmission, excessive automatic weapons, maps being shifted from realistic recreations to game balance, etc.) squad 44 is much more team based with squads, being able to build fobs with emphasis on logistics, and so far only game where you can actually paradrop into battle (outside of a mod for squad that allows you to paradrop as well)
I like both. S44 is more realistic, HLL is a good mix between realism and arcade gameplay. I hope the HLL Devs cooked something big this year, it would be sad if it dies.
I miss Red Orchestra 2 with the option of voice acting and VOIP instead of just relying on VOIP like HLL and SQ44 do. The immersion in RO2 added by soldiers reacting on various situations add the war feel.
I put 100 hours into HLL and it never clicked for me. To me it’s an arcade game. Nobody communicates in the game and it doesn’t come close to squad. I have a lot of hours in squad and there’s nothing like it. I hope OWI can revive squad 44 because it has a lot of potential to have at least half of squad’s player base. Looking forward to the pacific update in S44.
Much agree with the HLL maps being designed with gameplay in mind, it's one the sacrifices S44 makes when trying to stick true to realistic maps. It was something HLL began with in it's first alpha's when st mere eglis map (old version) was a copy of an over-top airplane photo. The map didn't play good at all and they scrapped and remade it. I've played a ton of both games and I do wish the maps in S44 were more fun to play. It's what dictates the big distances from farm A to farm B in many cases, especially the market garden maps. I do like S44, but I don't play it currently, it's the lack of consistency.
I feel like 3/4 of the matches I play in HLL are frustrating as hell because nobody plays the meta game properly. The community is mostly brain dead except for the few vets that still play.
The important thing you said is that you play on clan servers in HLL. I have only played on official HLL servers and the experience was great when HLL was new but now it’s crowded with COD and BF players who do not value communication & coordination. They suffer from lone “wolfitis”. I rarely hear from the commander even if I have announced our squad’s entry into the session. Squad leaders are often silent and often don’t have a microphone. Who the heck plays a multiplayer teamwork game without a microphone?! Then there’s enemy sniping from who knows where? It doesn’t matter if we use cover and shoot & scoot. My friends/brothers and I try to move as a squad supporting each other but invariably we get shot from a mile away. My experience in Squad44 has been much better. If you can actually find a populated server, it’s a much better experience. Players are more mature and more into communication & coordination rather than kill/death ratios. Explosions and weapon sounds are more visceral. Tank operation feels more like a simulation rather than the arcade tanks in HLL. Perhaps the solution is to play on a squad server in HLL.
I haven't picked up squad 44 yet but do play squad and prefer its gameplay loop over hll. Do agree that hll is much more inviting to new players but the game play loop gets stale to me quicker. I think its the maps feeling much more bottle necked and movement restricted. Plus I just squads system for fobs and logistics more. Plus the vehicle combat in squad 44 just looks awesome.
The future isnt wobbly for HLL - Its non existent. T17 absolutely suck in every regard when it comes to HLL and IMHO the game will die out just like Post Scriptum did unless T17 decide to sell it to someone (prefferably more passionate and most of all - more competent)
Your experience in regards to communication between the two games is pretty much the opposite of what most others report. I have only played HLL for a few hours during a FTP weekend a year or two ago. I could count on one hand how many people I heard talking but I chalked that up to a bunch of new players also on FTP. I recently got the itch to try it out again but reading comparisons/reviews of the two games, I went with Squad 44 due to the consensus being that it has much better communication/teamwork compared to HLL. Its pretty rare to have a non communicating squad. A lot of squad leaders will even kick people who aren't talking.
I can vouch as a lvl 268 veteran with 1500 hours in HLL that 70% of people do not speak. It mostly boils down to incompetent squad leads who do not kick players that don't have mics.
Definitely a good video but one S44 has a lot of maps a shit load of tanks and even more different guns. Two playing on public HLL servers I never find any squads talking, and it's the complete opposite almost all the time in S44. Also let's not forget squad 44 is getting the pacific theatre with iwo jima in like two months. and the map is a one-to-one scale replica which is amazing.
The part of your video essay where you mentioned that HLL is easily enjoyable for new players explains why its servers are more populated than Squad 44’s. The simplicity of the mechanics, combined with the exceptional level of in-game action, is what keeps players engaged. While Squad 44 may have an upcoming new faction or map, keep in mind that HLL will also have updates.
Good point... SQ44 feels really refreshing after 4 yrs of HLL. SQ44 needs a higher amount of players. Also needs an XP system just to show players levels and to reward the time invested. Tank gameplay is top notch and even crippled tanks are a real danger. (speed feels accurate too) Tanks in HLL can be too easily destroyed. I'm looking forward to Iwo Jima... BUT first: more players
Seems like a lot of people just want to shit on HLL and I’m not really sure why. I’ve played both and love both. Although I have to agree that HLL is more open to new players at least in my experience. Every time I try to play squad it’s nothing but people just being toxic and I will to help people learn. Sad that. But doesn’t mean I won’t play again
As a console player, I'm gutted to miss out on the Squad / Squad 44 titles. HLL is such an immersive game, though would love to try Squad / 44 some day.
If your new squad 44 listen to your squad leader; especially if they are trying. Makes the game so much better and more immersive than trying to Rambo it
I don't understand why people claim people do not talk in HLL. Like partly it is truth. Sometimes there might be only one dude in the squad who wants to talk to you, but I personally had decent experience in 375h of gameplay. Commanders and SL most of the time talk to eachother except for few "lone wolves" who like to play on their own. There is bigger chance that somebody will speak more than enough or too loud rather than not speaking at all.
❤ Hell Let Loose!!! ❤ If you want to jump in: watch TH-cam videos first. Play with Mic and Headset only! Stick to your squad and listen to your Squad Leader. See you on the battlefield.
In fact, I dream of someone combining all the best aspects of both games into one whole. I play HLL every day, I have friends there from my favorite server and it's somehow difficult for me to switch to playing S44 but I still think it's an amazing game and I give it a chance from time to time. Wish it had better maps...
when u were talking about the maps in squad being more realistic i think i gotta disagree, i remember hell let loose talking about being as faithful to the real maps from the battles as possible while using pictures and maps from the time, and squad 44 focusing on getting the feeling of the battles more so
As a HLL veteran i recently tried out the first time Squad44 and it felt so clunky. The maps look very good but not well designed, random and inconsistent. Sorry Squad!
Not to mention, it has steamworkshop currenty with The Spanish Civil War, Soviet Union, Noth Africa, Zombies & Defence. The Pacific is ariving soon, & Russian Army. Good Devs
Bro faster movement speed in hell let loose? I feel like hell let loose is way more slow and sluggish. Squad 44 has a stamina system, and as long as you're not out of stamina, your actual sprint speed in squad 44 feels way way better than hell let loose.
Squad 44 needs to go to console if it does and keeps it’s authentic play it will thrive, the fact it’s only on pc is a massive disadvantage. I know I would play the hell out of it if it was on console but I’m not prepared to shell out a load of money for a gaming pc.
I'm really itching to try new big multiplayer WW2 games because I played HLL for 3 years now so when I read PS got bought by the guys who made squad i was excited but im the bandwagoning type and when I see the player count of S44 still being incredibly low it just doesn't give me confidence. Try to view this not from the lens of fanboy wars of whose the better game but from a concerned consumer.
The thing is; I have both installed atm, but as far it goes for Squad 44,.. I really can't play a game when there is almost no players. And no, I'm not going to play in servers where my ping is over 80ms. Only european server seems to be from germany, and it requires the very use of german language. I once played on some eastern (russian?) server, and oh boy it was boring. I tried to speak in english there, but they complitely ignored my attempts and continued to speak their own thing. I got kicked out every squad i did join and that IS BS. So, HLL it is. Or Squad if I want to get yelled at for my incompetence. LMAO.
SQ44 Maps are a lot larger then HLL, you dont realize it from the get go but look alone at the maps both titles share like Driel or St. Mere Eglise for example. In the case of Driel HLL is like 20% of SQ44 Maps size. Is that better or worse? No clue but it at least nice for me as bigger gives me more options but ofc it means less enemy per meter
Only thing Squad games need is just Level system, maybe not for guns, just experiences, like level up from private to corporal, everything are doing great , but after you finish one match and nothing left, even you don’t even know your teammates are experienced or not, so after 300 hours in squad 44, after you knew every mechanic and game rules,the game is just feeling bored
I actually think that the level system is why HLL is worse. It's not realistic or immersive to have to unlock weapons. The level system in HLL has made it so that a majority of players are running machine guns which has made classes like the rifleman entirely useless.
@@halla359 that’s why I wrote maybe not for guns, for experiences, like players level, and we can also know that which players are veterans or newbie, and also, after playing matches per matches, I feels some pointless to play , especially when you play alone in there, in HLL, most of players see the experience tag and they utterly know which player should be Commander or SL
@@emperoroak7331 Fair enough. Although i think adding a level with no other function than a number next to your name would get players complaining about not recieving anything for leveling but idk
@@halla359 well, atleast, we can know how that players are experienced and it’s more similar to Rank system in other games, but just rank numbers like sergeant,recruit or captain or colonel etc, atleast knowing how experienced,right and players also gain something from playing, now it’s just feeling empty after match
@@emperoroak7331 But that could also be problematic. Just because you have played the game much doesn't mean you are the best fit for commander and SL roles. And a system like that would barely even work as the game is 6 years old already. That would make the people that have grinded the game for 6 years and people that just got it and started grinding on the same level....
While I love S44 there is not many serves with players, that sucks, maybe is because I live at south america but still sucks that you enter Squad 44 and any other servers rather than french or german servers are full.
Shit bro i play alotttt of hll and wanna play squad 44 instead but no PC😢 I guess our experiences are different tho, on console they released the game to game pass so the community has taken a major dump and its not even just the new gamepass players but the older players just suck now too
i played sq44 and it was incredibly clunky, animations almost feel like in alpha state, weapons have bloom fire, they use hiding mechanics if you laydown over grass, your body literally despawns, and when you get kill it respawns again like if you have been summon xD, tank battles are horrible, like a Sherman can survive a side shot from a 88mm to the ammo rack lol, buildings and cities are sterile and rigid, you cant even open doors or destroy small fences like wtf???, people quit squads all the time, but it has very nice sound FX, i think the sounds are the best in the genre, i may try HLL next but i dont know, not having combine arms warfare is kinda of a turn off for me
Squad 43 could have 10x more maps, variety, whatever. It doesn’t come close to HLL performance and graphics/ detail. IF HLL had better devs, this wouldn’t even be a discussion
#1. It doesnt have better devs so your point is moot. #2. This is one of those times where its not all about the prettier game. Squad is an overall much more realistic and enjoyable experience. If you like HLL better thats fine, but dont try and convince people otherwie with your stupid ass examples LOL
Post scriptum, no doubt about it. HLL way too arcadey and fuck their terrible microtransactions. Post Scriptum also just feels more gritty. HLL has some nice maps tho NGL.
HLL is not on a downward spiral, atleast according to steam charts. It’s been pretty consistent. Squad 44’s avg player count has been trending downwards over the past 6 months.
Maybe actually watch steam charts before commenting. Just checked S44 and it is not on a downwards spiral. Average playercount is higher now than it has been for a while. It will probably also increase with the pacific. And remember player count ≠ better game
How many years have people been comparing these two? Pointless imo as the real problem is the players not the games. For me, squad44 is just boring and it seems this is true for most people because even after all the pushing from content creators HLL is still on top. For now at least.
Hell Let Loose. Better gameplay and 10 times the player count even now when historically lower player count that will increase later this fall with the revamped Purple Heart Lane map and near the end of the year the release of the new map Elsenborn.
people keep saying s44 is better and while it is a better simulator... player counts dont line up. more complex dosent mean more fun for many people. 100-300 players on s44... not much to work with
Quality > Quantity I have been playing Squad 44 since day one and have ALWAYS had a game to play! If the server you are in is full, WHAT DO THE OTHER SERVERS MATTER TO YOU?!?!
Hll wins unfortunately just due to sheer player count. There is like 1 N.A. east server and it’s either completely dead or so packed you can’t get in for 30 Minutes. Hoping the next update gives it the player base jump it needs.
Worth mentioning that Squad 44 will be introducing the Soviet army and the Pacific Theatre with Iwo Jima. Pretty nice!
soviet already there as a mod is call red chapter
I'm going to start playing squad 44 with the pacific theatre so I'm not directly comparing it to hell let loose haha that's what I told myself

Big difference is nobody is playing Squad 44, but they should be

Much agree with the HLL maps being designed with gameplay in mind, it's one the sacrifices S44 makes when trying to stick true to realistic maps. It was something HLL began with in it's first alpha's when st mere eglis map (old version) was a copy of an over-top airplane photo. The map didn't play good at all and they scrapped and remade it.
I've played a ton of both games and I do wish the maps in S44 were more fun to play. It's what dictates the big distances from farm A to farm B in many cases, especially the market garden maps. I do like S44, but I don't play it currently, it's the lack of consistency.
This is the most honest take about S44. I wish the devs would really take this into consideration. Realism doesn’t equal good gameplay.
I feel like 3/4 of the matches I play in HLL are frustrating as hell because nobody plays the meta game properly. The community is mostly brain dead except for the few vets that still play.

Squad 44 is so good in these comments, that only 1 person from the comments actually plays it.
Both are great World War 2 games.
I miss Heroes & Generals 😔
Last 30 days peak players:
HLL = 9,082 players.
Squad 44 = 958 players.
Only time will tell I guess.
this only accounts for steam... console numbers dwarf pc because of xbox and PS
This is literally the only metric that matters. Everything else is a circle jerk.
There are a lot of console players that would love to play squad 44. In the meantime hll it is.
Is squad 44 only for pc?
While I love S44 there is not many serves with players, that sucks, maybe is because I live at south america but still sucks that you enter Squad 44 and any other servers rather than french or german servers are full.
Shit bro i play alotttt of hll and wanna play squad 44 instead but no PC😢
I guess our experiences are different tho, on console they released the game to game pass so the community has taken a major dump and its not even just the new gamepass players but the older players just suck now too
Sadly squad 44 is dead as fuck in Australia
The new “search and destroy” in squad44 is so good!
I play HLL. Havent played PS in a long time because the community was toxic.
Does it still have that problem?
you are prioritizing HLL
i played sq44 and it was incredibly clunky, animations almost feel like in alpha state, weapons have bloom fire, they use hiding mechanics if you laydown over grass, your body literally despawns, and when you get kill it respawns again like if you have been summon xD, tank battles are horrible, like a Sherman can survive a side shot from a 88mm to the ammo rack lol, buildings and cities are sterile and rigid, you cant even open doors or destroy small fences like wtf???, people quit squads all the time, but it has very nice sound FX, i think the sounds are the best in the genre, i may try HLL next but i dont know, not having combine arms warfare is kinda of a turn off for me
Squad 43 could have 10x more maps, variety, whatever. It doesn’t come close to HLL performance and graphics/ detail.
IF HLL had better devs, this wouldn’t even be a discussion
#1. It doesnt have better devs so your point is moot. #2. This is one of those times where its not all about the prettier game. Squad is an overall much more realistic and enjoyable experience. If you like HLL better thats fine, but dont try and convince people otherwie with your stupid ass examples LOL
Hell Let Loose! Because it’s on PS5 for me. 🔥🔥
Its good to have a game that absorbs console-players.
Post scriptum, no doubt about it. HLL way too arcadey and fuck their terrible microtransactions. Post Scriptum also just feels more gritty. HLL has some nice maps tho NGL.
bro please do not use AI generated thumbmails, makes your content look cheap even tho it isn't
His content are cheap anyway.. maybe hes using ai for the script too
Hll is much more fast paced. 44 is similar to the pace of squad.

HLL is not on a downward spiral, atleast according to steam charts. It’s been pretty consistent. Squad 44’s avg player count has been trending downwards over the past 6 months.
Maybe actually watch steam charts before commenting. Just checked S44 and it is not on a downwards spiral. Average playercount is higher now than it has been for a while. It will probably also increase with the pacific. And remember player count ≠ better game
HELL LET LOOSE all day long. 🔥 ❤

i dont dare buying squad 44.
scared its gonna die again XD
15 bucks on sale is worth it imo
The pacific front is coming out this year
Squad will eventually be the more popular game. HLL is the one you need to worry about.
Bring 44 to consoles

How many years have people been comparing these two? Pointless imo as the real problem is the players not the games. For me, squad44 is just boring and it seems this is true for most people because even after all the pushing from content creators HLL is still on top. For now at least.

If you have a pc, squad 44 is better to you. But in console hell let loose is the goat

Better gameplay and 10 times the player count even now when historically lower player count that will increase later this fall with the revamped Purple Heart Lane map and near the end of the year the release of the new map Elsenborn.
Enjoy your yearly update that only consists of a new map and nothing else lmao
Who cares about new maps, if they are just the same old assets and hedgrows over and over again, without adding anything game changing.
*worse gameplay
@@GiorgioChiellini723 keep hating if you want. at least HLL can get over 300 concurrent players XD

people keep saying s44 is better and while it is a better simulator... player counts dont line up. more complex dosent mean more fun for many people. 100-300 players on s44... not much to work with
Quality of players is important.
Every time I will log into squad 44 there’s no one playing . But every time I’m on HHL there are like 10 servers totally full.
and they are all shit tbf . squad 44 is still better just play on peak hours
There are literally always full servers in squad 44 all day every day
Quality > Quantity
I have been playing Squad 44 since day one and have ALWAYS had a game to play!
If the server you are in is full, WHAT DO THE OTHER SERVERS MATTER TO YOU?!?!
Any Australian servers? Having to connect to servers across an ocean ir two is pretty meh @boogie5
Huh. There’s always at least 1-2 full servers.

You dont even play s44 and yet comparing it
Hll wins unfortunately just due to sheer player count. There is like 1 N.A. east server and it’s either completely dead or so packed you can’t get in for 30
Minutes. Hoping the next update gives it the player base jump it needs.
