Is Enlisted better than Hell Let Loose? 

What I mostly like about HLL is that there is no real progression aside from some kits and skins you can unlock. Every game all players have the same gear and weaknesses a mere footsoldier has. There is no real way of getting an advantage over other players besides just getting better at it.

Enlisted feels more like a single player, medium/large scale battles with occasional weird players/bots. You are the commander of your bots and use them to cover areas while you cover others. You can also make them stay a few feet behind so that when you die, you immediately "spawn" right where you where but now you know where the enemy is.

Having bots in a game is honestly a deal-breaker for me. I hate the feeling of schooting another player, only to find out it was Fritz the bot who just had to smell the flowers in no man's land

Enlisted, hell let loose, post scriptum. All way fucking better than cod WW2, battlefield 5, and whatever the fuck vanguard even was. I'm just happy we finally have actual WW2 games.

5:30 "You just noticed you've finally unlocked that FG-42 after having given up trying 6 months ago" literally the most spot on statement you could have given.

One thing i think he missed out on was enlisteds campaigns. Enlisted has 6 total campaigns and each one is different. He only played normandy, which is a good starting campaing but the other 5 really show how good the game is. You have stalingrad for urban combat, tunisia for deserts, berlin for more open urban combat, moscow for more outdoors russians, and pacific is entirety its own vibe. And the best part is each campaign has an entire progression of its own for both axis and allies

You should have played and taken into account Enlisted's gunfighter mode, where there is no AI bots. Just players. It becomes a different game played that way.

Enlisted feels more like an arcade/ casual game and is fun to just hop on and chill out. HLL is fantastic when it comes to immersion, strategy, and teamwork, which I personally prefer more. Both games are really enjoyable though

I find the bots in enlisted have their own charm knowing that they are apart of a player controlled squad who can switch to any of its members at any time or if the player dies and there's bots left in the squad.

Enlisted sound design is amazing. The voicelines too. Some German soldiers sound like they are on "medication"

What I like about enlisted is how fun and good the vehicle gameplay is. Like the hot box’s are accurate like you can shoot a gunner or driver in a open capartment of the vehicle

Enlisted is a game you can hop onto for a couple of hours and have a genuinely good time just experiencing the battles you are dropped into. For that, I feel like Enlisted did above and beyond what I could’ve asked from a free game of its size.

You can actually play in a tank with other people in Enlisted. Me and a friend will sometimes hop in the same tank together and just go crazy. It's a lot of fun and definitely gives enlisted a point in that aspect because you could have several people commanding the same tank (if you have friends) just like in HLL

I like how in enlisted if there's no cover you can just get out your shovel and dig a hole. Not sure if HLL is like that or not

I don't know if it's still there but I remember there used to be a lone fighters mode that was really fun and had no bots

One thing I wish was mentioned about enlisted is that there are multiple fronts and factions. For example Normandy, Africa, Stalingrad, Berlin and the pacific

For me I like hell let loose better cause of the realism. But on the other hand I also like enlisted because of the extra content it provides and more maps. It just depends basically on your personal preference.

I like how bombs leave creators and you can destroy buildings but hell let losse actually feels like you in a real war that you need to communicate with your teammates

I love the fact that in enlisted there are different types of animations depending on where the character is hurt, not just on the arm like in hll in hll that would be awesome.

On the topic of maps, I would have actually given it to enlisted, like have you seen the detail in Berlin? The devs modelled the maps to be as accurate as possible to images taken at the time, it's practically photo-realistic.

when he said he didnt want to deal with the stress that a commander gets i totally agree with that. i was commander for a few games and hearing people yell at you to give them supply drops and garrisons really does add up😂 (still undefeated with my commander games)

Red orchestra 2 heroes of Stalingrad eats popcorn in corner

great vid, you deserve much more subs, keep the great quality up and you will get far.

For a free to play game enlisted is pretty good but there's some typical free to play jank that comes along with that. The UI takes a while to get used to, it's very convoluted but like you said once you get a feel for it the progression is pretty good. My biggest gripe is that sometimes my tank will get stopped at full speed by a bush or some small piece of rubble on the ground which has got me killed several times while attempting to flank another tank or evade AT soldiers. The bots are also borderline useless and will just stand there while enemy soldiers pour into a room and massacre them. You can always make them hold position behind cover somewhere out of the way and switch between them as necessary but if you need bodies on an objective they will probably all die very fast.

I don't have hell let loose (no next gen console or PC), so I play enlisted. I find it incredibly frustrating that my favourite tanks, planes and weapons are locked behind a stupidly long progression system or paywall. I've been playing for 6 months, and I've ONLY just unlocked level 13 (mortar squad). I like the idea in HLL, where you only need to be quick when choosing a class of soldier.

The stupidity of the bots in enlisted is beyond comprehension

Seems like enlisted will have a major change to its progresión system, ill give it another try now, plus, i think in the progession system there is a lot of motivation in unlocking historial units, certain brigades, divisions, platoons, etc that make up for much more than just selecting a certain camouflage or helmet desing in Hell let loose.

For Enlisted, I feel like that classes have more effect then was said here. Engineers are able to make not only fortifications, but also AT guns, AA guns, rally points for squads to spawn on. The AT gunners have personal AT weapons. Radio operators can call in air strikes. There is also the miss that there are also a great amount of campaigns to choose from in different time periods so you can use different equipments from those times.

Enlisted is better if you're playing by yourself. Hell let loose is better if you're playing with friends

I’m looking forward to seeing what the new HLL Devs will do. A roadmap should be out soon so that will be nice to see what’s on the docket for the future

If you have a friend you can tell one of your tankers to leave the tank and have your friend get in and drive or man the gun it’s super cool

I love the bots, if they put you off it feels better, because it feels like actual squads and you know that there is one human threat there and it's a minigame each time to be like where is the real guy- and if you feel like trolling act like a bot for a second and you might be ignored for a couple more seconds to throw a grenade or something

For me it's in relation of the situation what I like more. If I'm willing to have an intense battle with unforgiving enemies, I prefer Hell Let Loose. But if I'm frustrated of the permanent deaths without even seeing the enemies I will most likely go play Enlisted for the day and come back to HLL another time.

The way I see it, I play Enlisted solo but Hell Let Loose when I want to communicate with people. Both are great but for different moods

Enlisted is definatly one of the best free to play games out there, and i spend most of my time on my ps4 on enlisted. Although I do disagree with the gunplay point, but this moreso comes down to preference I believe.

Enlisted should have won the sound design category imo. All of the tanks engines sounds are just like the sound of heavy machinery from that era.

Games like Hell Let Loose would be much better served if players were funneled towards cohesion. While the dispersion is fairly realistic, concentrated attacks most definitely are too. Tight clusters of objectives would be a great help towards that. Like say, A B and C within a couple dozen yards of each other with a few other objectives in the distance clustered the same way. Scatter a few lone ones on the flanks to motivate scouts and maneuver elements.

I like playing enlisted because I'm not so dependent on communicating with the rest of the team there. I like to listen to marching music while shooting for the extra moral boost. In hell let loose I usually just get kicked for it 😂

Give me Enlisted any day. All that running into battle forever, only to be sniped once you finally do get to your objective, and then having to start running all over again in HLL drove me bonkers. With Enlisted you spawn right into the action. The bots are ok once you get used to them, and the fact that you respawn into the next bot in your squad, after you have been killed, only adds to the emersion. I did try HLL again recently, but just couldn't cope with having to cross 8 fields of nothing boring as hell.

Being a commander in Rising Storm and Red Orchestra is easily the best experience I've ever had and can really change the tide of combat.

As a player who abandoned Heroes & Generals after they introduced bots in their game, I feel like Hell Let Loose is the go to game. Here's hoping we get planes and some level of destruction (or just make tank driving better overall) at some point lol.

Enlisted’s bots was a turn off for me as well at the start, But then I realised that killing a bot harms another player! Looking at your squad and seeing you lost your radio operator sucks, no more air strikes for you! Lost your AT gunner? Welp, that panzer creeping up just became a real problem! Your mortar squad lost its engineer? You’ll just have to make the best of those 4 shells you have left then! The bots work more like pieces of your kit once you can synergies different classes with each other! So you didn’t just kill a bot! You removed important equipment from another player. Ps. The last update made the bots waaaay smarter

Apples to oranges. HLL is about realism and tactics. Enlisted is arcadey and easy to play, and has a massive class and squad customization function, which is a more mainstream shooter trait.

Enlisted is the game I’ve been dreaming of since the days of CoD WaW, I love it.

I just prefer enlisted because hell let loose honestly hurts my eyes when i play it. Its not the graphics themselves its probably because just how ludicrously far long range the combat can become at times when compared to enlisted. I mean when your just given a scopless bolt action and told too sit and fire back on to a position thats in a completely different continent it can become a real strain on your eyes

I have yet to find a game where I feel more immersed in what I'm doing than HLL. Grabs my full attention every single time I play. Knowing that every sound and explosion you are hearing is something happening in game by someone nothing is "backround". You hear a plane flying over head its a number of things that are impacting the game. Artillery shells flying at you knowing its a real player trying to kill you. And knowing you have the ability to stop it yourself if you take it Upon yourself Not just a backround noise or something someone just called in quick ((obviously theirs bombing runs which are instant but have hefty cooldowns and there is a decent in game supply aspect that you can use to have a very nice advantage)). Having no choice but to all push across a bridge behind your big ass tiger tank because the enemies machine guns are pinning you down. Going from almost losing your last point, To pushing to mid point with succesful teamwork and use of commander abilities. Nothing compares to the immersion And that alone is why personally nothing beats out HLL. But I am a big immersion guy i wanna feel like im there, in the shit, knowing every kill i get is a critical step towards victory. Good breakdown video though made me look at enlisted a little different ill probs start playing it casually again.

Enlisted has content updates more than twice a year, the general massive lack of content and updates is one of my main complaints about HLL, the game is so stale because the updates dont add things that change the way its played

What i like about HLL, coming from BF and COD, is that you can't just pick it up and play(you could argue rifleman/medic). But what i mean is, every player on the map has a job to do, one single person can influence the taking of a point, or defending a point. For example a machine gunner perfectly placed can disrupt a whole team for minutes at a time. But also, a tank squad relies on infantry to prevent someone from putting a satchel on or attacking the rear with a anti tank gun. If you get lucky and have all the squads/commander in sync, its beautiful. Being able to use different tactics etc. I still only know about 40% of all the maps, which is essential sometimes, and can be the difference between winning and loosing, for example where to drop supplies, where to place garrisons, where to place outposts, where to place airheads etc so the other team can't find them, just knowing the maps can be the difference. I played enlisted and the gun play just felt cranky and junky. I liked the ordering your team around however, it reminded me of flashpoint on the xbox 360, and reminded me of brothers in arms, its just not executed very well. I'd love to try post scriptum

I play both games, more enlisted as i just got into Hell At Loose, but this is how I feel about this. When I want to challenge myself and immersive myself in a WW2 game I go to Hell let Loose, it's both very immersive and challenging and I LOVE the team work. Then when I wanna relax and chill with a nice snack and a RU-vid video playing i go to Enlisted. The game for being a free game is AMAZING and with the up coming update with the research/progression tree that should be adding a good handful of new guns, tanks and other things i think will blow Hell Let Loose out of the water, but I think ill still go back to Hell Let Loose for the immersive and team communication side of things when I'm in that kind of mood.

Thx for this comparison, street fighting in hll has been strangled so many closed off buildings.. tanking rock paper … i have to check out enlisted as the airdrops respawn mechanics off hll have reached the boredom threshold.

Dog fighting in enlisted is such a satisfaction. Getting that 10 player kill feed with a dive bomb is unmatched. Both games are potentially peak in their theaters.

Bots never bothered me, I grew up playing against bots with socom. It just adds to the challenge against other competition with players.

I kind of feel there's an unnecessary hatred towards bots in a FPS MP game, Like sure the AI isn't as satisfying to kill as a player but I genuinely don't see the problem with a game that uses bots along side players. Another point regarding classes I feel has a bit of a bias towards hell let loose as you didn't mention the fact that the roles are locked out if the squad is part full or nearly full. As a result if you're joining into a game mid progress or you're not fast enough to hop into an empty squad and pick the role of you want, you don't have alot of choice and could spend alot of time either as rifleman or a class you don't enjoy as much. Good video however ^^

the fact that hell let loose doesn't have a quick play/find match button but you have to pick servers on your own is kind of a dealbreaker for me. That and the long periods of time without action while you run from point to point only to get sniped along the way

One thing I love about HLL is the absolute terror you feel when a bombing run is heading your way, or you are hiding in a small foxhole with an enemy mg surpressing you. the immersion is off the scale at times.

I don't go in for vehicles much in Enlisted but it's great when you got one on your team. Contrary to what the reviewer is saying here, you are best to protect your tanks and you can use them as cover too, quite effectively. @3:00

Hell let loose has just started to bring bomber planes..ive played both and I'm a big fan of them both there just as good as each other. Hll needs a system in place to show new players how to play there roles. Enlisted does show new players how to. I've always felt like the aim in enlisted feels abit sticky at times. Hll when you drop someone it feels great

I had Enlisted for a long time because I didn't have a next gen console to play Hell Let Loose. Definitely some valid points in this video. I do wish HLL had more content, but in the little time I have for video games these days, I love that class progression and unlocks move across factions. Enlisted certainly has more content, but it is a grind and the best things are locked behind a pay wall. Everything is designed to be just inconvenient enough that at some point you want to break down and put money into the game.

there's no "better" game between these two, they're two games of the same genre but different execution

As much as I like enlisted it’s annoying that you have to buy the 2 extra squads

It took me awhile to understand the various Enlisted systems, but once I did, I quite enjoy it. Building a squad from 2 to 3 and then to... even 7 or more is great fun. My only wish is that the AI would be slightly improved, but... improved AI would diminish the want of store "products" that improve players / characters and / or lessen the grind.

Enlisted has BOTs yes… but the player can control any of them. What I like is that if you die, you just spawn on one of your soldiers and your right back in the action. It’s just a constant action filled shooter with no downtime. That’s what I like about it😊

this video basically shows that enlisted was pretty much made for me the huge battles with players and bots that you can command great vehicle combat including aviation destructible environments

If you guys look up settings and how to fix the settings in this game cuz I've noticed a lot of players don't like the way the feel of the control... The problem is in the settings turn the dead zones down! Turn up the sensitivity a bit. If you don't like the way the tanks ride you can change those too including the plane These things are not easy when you first jump on them they're hard to learn at first but you get to hang of it real quick!

Enlisted is my game. I know not everyone loves bots, but I really enjoy them. They give you more things to shoot at and it is fun when you drop a bunch with a bolt action. The other thing I like about Enlisted is the possibility to move into different conflicts besides just WW2.

Both game are fun. They are different type ,1 arcade style and 1 realliatic hardcore style.

I like enlisted but I can’t disagree more with number one, at least on my PS5 Hell Let Loose blows Enlisted out of the water in terms of graphics.

I feel like the reason there isn't destructible environment in hell let loose is bc half way through the match thered be nothing left.

Tried enlisted. Played it for 4 hours. Never touched it again. Hell let loose i can play for hours and never get bored

I haven't personally played Enlisted but from the game play I've seen, it looks like it's really close to being good. My issue with that ive seen is that it just looks incredibly meh. Gameplay just looks like it's really not that good or flushed out. But maybe if it was a paid for game it'd be a lot better after some work. Might give it a try one day.

The thing i love about Enlisted is that i find myself using all the possible weapon and skill loadouts unlike other games where there is a meta strategy. For example my sniper squads have health and healing bonuses and backpacks to carry more heals and ammo however the sniper in my infantry squad has grenade abilities, no backpack and a rifle with more ammo capacity and a secondary weapon since he engages at medium rather than long range. My only criticism of enlisted is that the game needs a tickets for spawn system similar to war thunder to balance late game autorifle spam.

I actually love bots in enlisted, once you know how to use them and stop using them as a meat shield they are quite useful and add a strategic element to the game, moreover, they make the battles feel a bit more epic, you can hardly get this feeling from other games when you stick your head out of a window or a trench and see a full squad of enemies, or even more moving among the buildings or trees. yea, a lot of them are bots but still, they fill the battlefield a lot and you know there is a player among them, and even if you can kill the player first, which is hard, the bots might kill you, in any other WW game, once you see an enemy soldier, you know either he is going to die literally in the next second, or you will, most of the time you can't even see the enemy that killed you. it feels good to ocasionally get multi kills with your mortar rounds or artillery too. After playing enough, you don't even care if you kill a bot or a player, because you realize that killing a bot is in fact, killing a player respawn opportunity, so the feeling is almost the same, every bot you kill count and makes difference. Lastly, when you know how to postion your bots and they start getting some kills... well, it somehow feels rewarding.

Idc, I love wiping a whole squad of bots plus their actual player leader. I also love being able to switch between my bot squad when I die as a character without having to instantly fume through a 30 second respawn. It is enraging trying to cycle through your bots as they stand there and die to an enemy player. Also your squad getting stuck on walls having to switch to a character trapped in a wall 30 miles from the battle. But I love the flame thrower and campaign progressions and the dog fights and bombing squads is everything. I just wish they didn't force pay to play so much but hey, they gotta get their money somehow. Also the new pacific theater is awesome.

Quick thing the 11th round you said HLL have way more classes. But currently they have 5 campaigns around 8 - 10 different infantry divisions radio commanders tanks and planes with you being able to add more and add soldiers customize the guns way more with 23 and plenty more I'd say Its a tie but with the last round Enlisted strikes HLL down with a uppercut to the head taking the final blow.

I love how you always mention Post Scriptum, even if dead or not, it's a completely different immersive experience

In enlisted, the tanks, other people can drive, can be the command and the loader or gunner, you just need to have 1 of your troops inside (you) and tell ur friends to get in

Never even hear of enlisted but I might take look. Looks interesting

The devs of enlisted continue to add more content but not fix anything. Hell let loose sticks to the basics and fully masters it. Ive tried both, and I think that even after 2 or so years, HHL is definitely the winner.

I feel like hell let loose doesn’t have destructible environments because on some maps cover is already sparse and having destruction on some maps but not others would be weird

As one of the Enlisted player, this game still need to fix character's movement a lot. I hope they could make it like battlefield

Enlisted is better

It’s not lol, HLL is 9/10 for me Dawg

One important point, that I don't see represented enough for Enlisted, is the easy access that the bots bring to the game. Compared to more traditional shooters, a player can faster and easier pick up the game and have positive experiences. Not having a negative K/D and not always losing your position due to dying, seems like a huge plus for more casual players. Obviously for more experienced players this might be a turnoff in return.

Hell Let Loose is better

Please don't compare the masterclass of hell let loose to arcade shite enlisted lol

I had my first go of Hell let loose today for months. I was crawling along the floor and hit an invisible seesaw revealing my position. I forgot about them.

Whats even better enlisted is getting a revamp to its progression system which will be wonderful now that you dont have to unlock stuff you’ll never use or will hardly use

Just an FYI in enlisted you can have as many players in a tank as there are crew, its just harder to organize.

enlisted getting a squad ai update soon. and if you can find you can play matches without squads. i think it's way better and solid experience. but i like HLL maps more.

Tbh Enlisted is my go to game especially after its revamp, the bots can be annoying yes but scoring 10 kills while bombing an area is so satisfying. Hell let loose continues to put me off by just how far you have to travel to get into the action sometimes.

Overall good video, of what I know of HLL anyways, but I have to vehemently disagree on the vehicle play. I don’t normally play in tanks or anything like that, but to me, Enlisted is different. The ability to kill individual crew members in the enemy tank depending on where you hit it, immobilize it with track shots, easy kills with the ammo rack, etc. is incredible to me. There’s also nothing like being the last crewman in your tank frantically switching between loader and gunner making a stand on an objective and actually knocking out other tanks and a whole mess of infantry before being finished.

enlisted then: progress to win. enlisted now: "wait did you want to gain an advantage?"

I put a couple/few hundred hours of gameplay into Enlisted and put it down, but HLL is tempting me back into the genre. I think I'll pick it up next time I see it on sale.

I play enlisted and must say that few things unmentioned or wasn't there are: -if your bots are alive and you use your own weapon you can ask for ammo every 10 seconds and that's bloody helpfull -radio operator can call for bombing run -you have "gold weapons" that are hard to come by either bought with premium currency, you have chance to get them every 15 days of loging in or from bp and events; they include things like mosin grenade launcher, cönders mg aka smg but also mg and other weird but fun guns. -events that can get you squads like latest one can get you one of the most fun classes. -said class are paratroopers that can drop from the plane in any point at the map and have weapon crate with them allowing you to make them into assault, at, recon or mortar squad. -you can actually play with other people in a tank but you either have to have space by not equipping all soldiers or when one soldier dies. Exaple when me and my mates played lone warrior against each other one picked m8 and other get in on commanders position spotting and using the mg -you can charge with bayonetts, axes and swords. And with that if you can get the right perks you can drink from cantine (or however it's spelled) so your stamina regens faster, then have i believe +25% speed from perks, sword at itself highly boosts you but when you charge with it you feel like Usain Bolt. -any soldier can be dangerous to tanks as long as he has explosive packs. -you can dig trenches or fox holes with your trusty shovel

Can you both games play on a Steam Deck? And wich is then better! In gameplay! Or to use in combination with the controls of the Steam Deck?

This is an apples and oranges comparison. One is a semi mili sim the other is a ww2 free for all with mechanics.

HLL - Team communication is amazing rarely I have a squad where nobody talks. and when it does happen we usually lose comms give you crazy edge

I'm just here to say yes. If enlisted worked on the bots a little bit and improved the tanks, it'd easily be the best big shooter out there. Something about a 50mm cannon not being able to penetrate the back side of a Sherman isn't fun. Or the T34-85 not being able to pen a panther or tiger anywhere from the front, especially since the 85 is all you get at the start of the Berlin campaign.

Personally I'm not into ww2 shooters by any means, i just clicked to just kill some time but your voices smoothness and your emphasis on words really made me stay and watch the video till it ends. I've never seen a RU-vidr that cares about the punctuation on emphasis. It was such a great experience lol. I look forward to your content. You got a sub mate!

Good video. I played Enlisted a lot but suddenly hit a wall after doing their battlepass which made it a chore, and didn't want to play at all anymore, so I'm going to go try Hell Let Loose now. The only thing that kept me from HLL so far is I have the impression you shouldn't go in solo, but I have no friends that play games, so I don't know. .
