Hey everyone,
Welcome to Dev Brief #150!
This week we’ve got an extensive Dev Brief that allows us to showcase some upcoming items in the U11 patch.
Then, as a couple of cherries on the cake we’ve got some great community events and media to showcase to you all. So without any delay, let’s begin.
VOIP Mic Check
We have been busy working on ways to improve the HLL VOIP experience. This new feature will allow players to do a self check after loading into a server to ensure the mic is working and the correct volume is set, without it being either too quiet, or loud and distorted.
This is one of a few different fixes we are looking at to improve the overall in-game comms, to make sure there is open and clear communication between all players. We are investigating seperate channel volumes too, which we will look to roll out in a future update. As with every aspect of HLL, we will continue to enhance and improve this crucial aspect of the game as quickly as possible.
Step one: Navigate to the Audio options menu and press the ‘check’ button in the ‘microphone check’ option.

Step two: In this menu option a player can do self testing of their microphone input. Both mic and voice volumes can be adjusted to bring a better communication experience for them playing HLL.

Sneak Peek Of The Week
We have made some great progress in various QOL items for the upcoming U11 patch. One that we currently have in the pipeline is an deployable replacement system. A great ingame example of this is when an AT gun deployment position is overrun or no longer practical to use. (see image below)
Note: The AT Gun in background disappears
Below is a segment of some additional QOL changes coming in U11. Please note this isn’t the comprehensive list which will be provided with the full changelog closer to release. We are not too far away from the next PTE, more information on this to come.
- Reformatted option menus
- Improved commander ability descriptions
- Hidden enemy role and unit info on scoreboard
- Death in vehicle player feedback improvements
- Synchronized resource generation
- Sound effect for vehicle component destruction
