    This is what Battlefield 2042 should have been. Great great great! Love the team work and realism. Actions and tactics actually matters, and finally a game that's lets the player be smart!

    This game is everything I wanted in a military-based first-person shooter and in many ways fixes a lot of the grudges I have against the biggest games in this genre: no kill-cam, limited HUD, no mini-map or radar, no unrealistic time-to-kill, no instant respawns, and the list goes on.

    Game has potential to be fun, there are unclear respawn times and every time it seems like I'm doing good & getting into a game it struggles to maintain a connection to servers. That's my biggest complaint, frequent dcs are unacceptable in a long-form combat game such as this.

    Absolutely the best FPS of the year.
    The issue is... Will it be the best FPS of the decade?
    I think so!!!!!!!!!

    At last a game with depth and not just run and gunning. Don’t expect a fast paced cod style game. This is a tactical shooter where communication and teamwork is required.

    Great game,, not for the COD gamer as this is a tactical sim that requires teamwork and comms. Really great game with some slight bugs that will be resolved quickly.... If you enjoyed Svn pvt Ryan and band of brothers then this is the game for you. Hope to see more games like this on consoles

    Great game. Most immersive war game out on consoles. A well crafted strategy FPS game that captures the WW2 style very well. The game is way ahead of its competition, even those AAA titles, coming from an indie developer is amazing. Should have a better score but those who don't understand the game have given it a bad reputation.

    Game is very fun and different from main stream first person shooters. I love how important communication and thinking more strategically is necessary is to excel in this game. This game is the best World War 2 game by far. I highly recommend it.

    As a veteran battlefield player I am absolutely addicted to this now game. More tactic,more teamplay and much more exiting because of higher stakes. With a crew in a tank making the difference, as a medic helping the team, or the satisfaction of shooting down a attacker or defender and gaining a objective. There is much to learn an that for me makes the game the greatest game up to now.As a veteran battlefield player I am absolutely addicted to this now game.

    A brutal, hardcore simulation of war; where communication and team work is needed, a great immersive experience and accurate arsenal of war, plus the different transport types. Comms between squad and proxy chat between other squads around you plus the commander is incredibly. Teamwork makes the dream work means

    The game certainly isn't for everyone. It's a sim, you may go 15 mins without firing a single shot. 0 out of 10 also bugs, constant getting kicked from servers and the amount of players that kill their own team mates I wouldn't reccomend it to my worst enemy.

    The game is straight up broken, then ontop of that you have cheaters, campers and team mates that constantly shoot you. This game is not fun and should not be played by anyone.

    Great game! We console players really needed a realistic FPS tittle like HLL. It’s definitely not for everyone, but those players willing to PTFO must definitely give it a try, you’re not going to regret it.

The game is not forgiving : if you don’t play with your team, the game will quickly become boring or harshly punishing, making you run to the frontline for 10 minutes just to get shot couple of minutes later.
    When you understand how to play it, the game becomes fantastic, the immersion is total despite few bugs (Team17 seems to bring a decent support towards the game for an indépendant studio). You’re bored with the pathetic Vanguard and the mediocre BF2042 and want to try something new? Then give HLL a shot, you’ll not regret it!    … Expand

    Throwing you head on into 50v50 warfare, in which teamwork is essential and death comes quickly in huge maps, Hell Let Loose is a stunning game that had me playing round after round. Aesthetically it could use work, the frame-rate drops do start to become a bit tedious and the sheer scale of maps may put off some people. However, it’s a great bit of brutal warfare and one I know I’ll be keeping installed for a long time to come.

    Hell Let Loose is a different approach to war games, with a slower pace than those of other popular franchises and an impressive level of realism.
