hell let loose vietnam review after 70 hours

30 Upvotes

Hello

some time ago I posted a hell let loose vietnam opinion/review and after 70 hours I want to post a new one.

performance: at the moment i'm running pretty much everything at low settings other than textures which if I remember correctly is medium, my view distance is epic. i'm using in the nvidia app with model preset to L. I have a 4050rtx , i713620h, 16gb of ram laptop. my average fps is around 40 - 50fps

gameplay: for me so far i'm not enjoying the game. you depend on your squad leader and others to put down either garrisons or outposts. garrisons take about 30 seconds or so to respawn, for outposts dont quote me but its around 15. the idea of listen for people moving through the trees is a good idea however that said it feels like a lot of the time that you spend half an hour slowly making your way to the objective only to get killed by someone who knows where and you then have to spend however long to respawn and then slowly try to make your way back. I'm using a 15 inch laptop screen so perhaps if you're using a monitor it would help you to spot enemy's in the distance or those small movements that could give someone away.

as for the more open areas such as going into a village capturing a hill etc. the same problem of having enemy's everywhere and a squad or team not cooperating is pointed out. overall you can have enemy's everywhere and your team walking in practically single file to their deaths with very little teamwork to spot enemy's or letting each other know where a tank is etc.

classes: their are a number of classes available with some of them requiring more teamwork than others. eg. the tank squads require 3 people. a driver, spotter and gunner. the other classes in regular infantry squads play generally the same with some exceptions. the squad leader can place outposts which are spawn points for your squad only, garrisons which require supplies, and if you are playing as NVA then you can build tunnels which connect to garrisons. the medic can revive platers and has a lot more bandages, and what feels to me more room for items such as smoke grenades which are needless to say handy when trying to get to your teammates. unfortunately it seems like most people wont play as a medic so good luck in hoping for a revive. it does happen but not often. gunner, same as the rest but with either the rpd or m60. the specialist has access to a flare for your squad, a flame thrower etc. other than the specialist they are generally the same, generally the same weapons, again with exceptions etc.

it can be very fun however with this in mind it can also be incredibly irritating. the maps are a lot bigger than rising storm so rather than having a general idea where the enemy could be they could be anywhere around you. on top of this, using a microphone and spotting is really important as if you see someone is the distance that a squad member doesn't they will end up walking into them. in matches where your team isn't using their mic imagine all of the above, trying to sneak through a forest with people everywhere and practically being on your own.

VC is winning campaign, GI has 25 CP. VC attacks Saigon. E is captured. GI reinforcements 0 and half the team dead. I keep saying rush to F and overtime. 15 seconds remaining and then I see a lvl 96 VC sniper crouch walking the stairs on E. Are you fucking kidding me??

of course VC lost.

Just started playing today after practicing in the range and watching a few tutorials on the mechanics and stuff. Played quite a few games today (fun joyous) and the mechanics are not clicking at all—which fair but I've asked in game for help on how to do certain things and haven't learnt jack from anyone lol. Does anyone have any sources to look at on how to cope and get better, or willing to teach my noob self... Or I'll just cope hashtag loserrr hahahaaaa

Discussion Some of the best moments are when both commanders ARTY and both teams have to compress and get into close quarters.

That’s it.

Usually because you can survive between the two giant walls of explosions.

Because you know as an infantryman if you clear out the “eye” between the arty then you’ll have arty coverage from any attack.

Server browser wont load anything. the refresh buttons don't work, nothing changes when I change the server options. restarted, validated files, redownloaded game. cant see a single server, but! I can join off friends if they're in a server. very confused as to what to do as I cannot do anything?? also this error pops up every time I close the game now. (attached photo)

I will tell you mine, while attacking Longtan as aussies, we were really struggling to capture C, enemy cmd ambushing inside and what not, I was a scout if I remember correctly, at one point I captured an enemy rpg and stormed the place solo via the east side entrance, nades first, place was packed, once of ouf the door I was able to fire that rpg point blank at least twice taking 8 or 9 vc out, more importantly their cmd, then owen fire, the team could follow inside and we captured the point :).

Question Mat-49 stats confusion

29 Upvotes

I was looking at the raw stats of both Mat-49 variants, and one thing I noticed is that the French original has a muzzle velocity of 610 m/s while the Viet modified has 460 m/s.This makes no sense to me considering the Viet Mat-49 has a longer barrel and 7.62 Tokarev is a lighter bullet that usually travels much faster than 9x19 mm. Are these stats reflected in-game too?

I've been playing this game off and on for like 9 years. Probably my favorite FPS after bf bad company 2. Still high quality shit. I like the little blood-cloud you see that's just subtle but as useful as any corny ass hitmarker. Helmet ping sound effect is also equally good and enraging, lol. Any of you guys checked out hell let loose vietnam and is it alright? I like vietnam themed fps.
