Public Testing Feedback
Based on player feedback the team has been focusing on resolving some of the points raised during the PTE, including:
Churchill Mk3 Tank
Feedback with regards to the audio mix
Armour values evaluated and updated
Turning speed evaluated and updated
Panther Tank
Removed the Panther tank from El Alamein due to historical inaccuracy.
British Eighth Army and German Africa Corps Uniforms
Comments regarding the “Waxy” look of the British uniforms
Validate the scale of the MK II helmet.
Change the texture of the current Luftwaffe belt buckle to be more historically accurate.
Pea Dot (Erbsenmuster 44) DLC
Colour values to be looked at and updated based on feedback that the uniform looks faded.
Patch 14.5 Changelog
Night Map Variants
[Added] El Alamein - Dusk Time (Historically Correct)
[Added] Driel Night
New Loading Screens
We've implemented new load screens for all maps, across the menu, basic training, and practice range.
The Bren Bipod
Following community feedback, the Bren now features bipod functionality.
FOV Changes
[Changed] The FOV slider range has seen the following changes:
Previously - 90-120
Now - 60-120
This is to allow all players a wider range of FOV settings which can help prevent the “Fish Eye” effect seen on larger ultrawide and super ultrawide monitors, players should note that the default FOV setting is still 90 so if you wish to change this you will need to go into your settings menu.

Hell Let Loose
Hell Let Loose, a tactical first-person shooter released in 2021, immerses players in intense World War II battles across the Western, North African, and Eastern Fronts. Developed and published by Team17, with assistance from Cover 6 Studios and Expression Games, the game stands out for its emphasis on platoon-level combat.
Originally conceived by Australian studio Black Matter, the project began in 2017, securing $220,000 through Kickstarter. After debuting in early access for PC in June 2019, the full release followed in July 2021. PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S players joined the fray on October 5, 2021. A notable shift occurred in January 2022 when Black Matter handed over development to publishers Team17, marking a new phase in the game's evolution.
Hell Let Loose Gameplay
Hell Let Loose delivers immersive 50 vs. 50 battles featuring combined arms warfare. Players select from diverse factions like Germans, Americans, Soviets, British, German Afrika Korps, and British 8th Army sub-factions. Factions comprise rifle squads (6 soldiers), armored squads (3 tank crewmen), and recon squads (2 soldiers), each playing a crucial role. The game offers two primary modes: Warfare and Offensive, both centered on capturing and controlling map sectors.
In Warfare, victory comes from holding all sectors or a majority when the timer ends. Offensive mode involves one team defending all sectors while the other aims to capture them before the timer expires. Effective communication is vital, with various voice channels, including leadership, unit-specific, proximity, and party channels fostering teamwork. The PC version also includes text chat.
Hell Let Loose introduces an RTS-inspired strategic meta-game where commanders manage faction resources, overseeing vehicle deployments, air strikes, and supply drops. Engineers can build resource nodes to enhance production, but enemy teams can dismantle them. This strategic layer adds depth to the intense frontline battles.
