Seems like the best news in a while. Hopefully it all works out.

TL;DR

-They are reverting the movement changes entirely

-They are implementing PTEs for testing new changes

-Lots of bug fixing

-Much slower development pace, with reworked roadmap and schedule, focusing on bug fixing

Will Team 17 turn things around for Hell Let Loose? - Thoughts? in c/patientgamers@sh.itjust.works

Yeah, the original devs, Black Matter Studios, sold the game to Team 17 and are no longer working on the project. It's now completely run by T17 and the first few updates and trailers have been very controversial to the current player base. The player count has dropped significantly since the most recent updates over the last few months. Pretty upsetting, considering it is one of my favorite games.

Will Team 17 turn things around for Hell Let Loose? - Thoughts? (sh.itjust.works)

When I got into HLL back in 2021, it was a one of a kind experience of strong community, teamwork, and a balance of realism, strategy, and "arcadey" enough to not get boring. I am fairly concerned that T17 will not be able to maintain the games popularity / enjoy-ability going forward.

My hope is that they can turn it around, but knowing how modern game development goes from larger studios, it's not looking good imo.

Anyone who's lurking around here, I'd like to hear your thoughts on what you think the future holds for this game, whether it still has a chance or is really doomed.

Thought I'd make this community since I really enjoyed the HLL subreddit but don't want to support it anymore due to reddit's corporate nonsense.
