I sincerely hope that moving to UE5 allows Squad44 to perform better on my pc, the only reason I don't play it is cause of performance issues. Really want to get into this game!
@@Aeromerp funny you say that because thats actually the reason i stopped play my most played game on steam hell let loose the biggest problem i have with hell let loose is the bad fps i get on that game i get better fps on squad 44 than hell let loose and there running on the same game engine unreal engine 4
I’ll be honest I think the best game out of all the “Squad” games is the OG Squad. Played 44 a bit, honestly it’s okay, too bad more players are not on it though. Moving to UE5 hopefully makes the game run better and brings in more people to them in general.
Whatever it is man, I just hope we get more servers that are populated. I have very limited options for servers right now and most of them give me around 200 plus ping. It sucks to be playing this game from Asia.
Hopefully they will (eventually) overhaul the map design, especially those generic looking trees, the best worst example of which is easily seen at 0:48 . I f they would get the map design quality and environmental level on par with HLL at least, damn... would be actually looking back to PS/SQ44 for real.
I haven’t been able to play Beyond The Wire much (potato pc + no Geforce Now availability), but judging from the videos I’ve seen, I feel like it needs to get out of just CQB/Trench warfare to grow. Nothing against that type of gameplay, but my dream is a WW1 game of real scale, with a lot of variety in terms of map size and terrain. Everyone already knows the whole deal with Trench warfare (no man’s land, the stalemate, etc.), but what of the Eastern Front? Unlike the Western Front it showcased a more mobile and dynamic theater of WW1. Cavalry was actually useful into 1918 and still used regularly for reconnaissance purposes (not to mention they were known to rely on automatic weapons more than standard infantry), armored cars could actually drive around without getting stuck in mud (usually), and the assortment of weapons could be quite varied as various nations scrambled to fill shortages with whatever they could find (old single shot rifles, captured rifles, purchases from other countries like the Winchester 1895). And beyond that, going back to scale, it’d also be interesting to see incorporation of more logistical & support elements. I’d especially be interested to see experimentation with indirect fire, where you have to zero artillery onto the enemy’s location, even while you can’t see them (kind of like in Hell Let Loose).
2 things, first, I want nothing from Hell Let Loose in any of the games, not in Squad, not in Squad 44, not in BTW, Hell Let Loose is garbage imo, it is undercooked, overhyped and overrun by people who are trying to escape Battlefield's downfall (from what I hear BF is making a comeback, but it is too arcadey for my liking, just my opinon) Second, I love the idea of the Eastern Front being explored but unfortutley Tannenberg flopped so I don't know how likely it is that we will get the Eastern front of WWI. I hope we do, it would compliment the Western Front, we could even get Africa, Gallipoli, or the Pacific battles that happened in WWI.
I'm sure OWI is wording themselves carefully because of how messy the state of UE5 games are, it's almost a buzz word at this point. Yet I'm glad because they still have performance in mind
God, I just hope they add some sort of community based progression or rank system. I know it's a heated subject in the community. But I wish there was just something to show for the time you put in I firmly beleive there is a way to incorporate and peer Givin medal system or just plane ol rank system. It's LITERALLY part of the real military the game is built off of. It can be implemented tastefully. I just can't put as much time in without it
This is not necessarily true ya know... In fact, I would argue quite the opposite! UE5 DOES NOT mean, you need a power house computer, quite the contrary actually... 😉🪖
Only time will tell... I will never know why so many look down on Squad 44. The community may be small be we are strong and loyal! Give it a couple years, and we will see who is right! 😉🪖
@@boogie5 The developers have said half a dozen times already that upgrading the game to UE5 isn't easy, it'll take a long time and it won't automatically make the game better.
Unreal 5 looks great so if the game does well enough I’m sure people will play it hell rising storm 2 just got a huge player jump with a update and sale so anything is possible with mil sim to be honest, because players just want an authentic and intelligent experience where they can make mistakes learn and be able to run the game, I will be buying the game not only due to the optimization of the engine but because games like hell let loose have too many bugs and I just wanna play a ww2 or ww1 game that has competent changes and great staff working on it
If only My pc could run it, yes its a struggle to buy a new pc to play Sqd ect with very high spec (your talking £1k to £1.5k to run this type of game)... But PR will do for me for now
Our boy Wellsy make's these awesome cinematics within the Squad 44 SDK 🎥 Go show his channel some love! You can find that exact cinematic here: www.youtube.com/@WellsyCinematics
@@JohnDoe-ov5ys Expansion for it?! I'm not sure I know what you're talking about.. I am certainly looking forward to the Black Orchestra RS2 mod... That's for sure!
OWI wouldn't spend another cent in these games Its a pipe dream that Squad 44 is going to Unreal engine 5; when they cant even fix the legacy issues with the game.
Man for me its the only thing that HLL has that S44 doesnt and thats better maps. Maps in S44 just feel like randomly genarated mazes or like nuketown fake cities. I hope the maps will imporve.
ok for whom? one and a half cripples? The game is dead, stop kicking the corpse. Online figures are the lowest in history since Post Scriptum. The game is stupidly impossible to play. you have to queue for a server, and at best there is only one or two servers. 100 people online. are you laughing? who needs it anyway
I've played since day one bud... We've been down to one FULL server plenty of times, sure! But if the server you are in is full, what do the other servers really matter?? 😉🪖 Quality > Quantity
@@butterz3488 Squad 44 or BTW! Believe it or not, but the Squad Base Code is actually known for doing pretty well with high pings... You can go back years on my channel and see where I used to play on AUS servers all the time, just because the teamwork was so great in AUS/OC. Once the Pacific drops be ready, AUS servers will surely populate again then! 🫡🪖

YES! Optimization and Performance should be hugely improved moving to UE5...

I'm not sure. UE5 is really heavy, hard to run properly a game on UE5 without at least a 30xx Nvidia
it's not just about the graphic, the physics, the animation, the gameplay. All those matters.
They moved Starship Troopers to Unreal Engine 5 so they already have experience
Oh werd! MANNNNN I cannot wait to see the state of all these titles in just a couple years or so!
The future is very bright for Milsims! 😁🪖

Yessir!
The future is extremely bright for our (MY) favorite games! 😁🪖
I only have fps issues in a full server. Same issue with both my pcs. Mid and high end.
I'd like to believe that the UE5 could improve this situation... 😉🪖
January 2025 will be the month BTW comes back from the "dead" trust 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Sheeeiiiiittttttt.... Let us pray! 😁🪖
i rly enjoyed it

I'm so excited for the update to Squad and Squad 44 😎🤙 Both are among my top favorites to play. Where do they rank in your game warchest?

Haha, it will probably be years down the line... But certainly something I know you have been wanting for a long long time! 😁🪖
fuuuuuuuck yes
w00t! 😁🪖
I mean on a weekend the population of the servers grow. I downloaded once owi bought it and made a few updates. I can't wait for it to be big again

And with Massive Battlefields with Destructible Environment and More than 100 Players per Server?
Yes Please!!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Beyond the Wire is the best game out of all of them.
I enjoyed it also just a pity it went the way it did.
I wonder if the migration to UE5 will remove having to drink from the water bottle. I swear if they remove that, everyone from HLL will migrate over.
well maybe drinking from that water bottle is my favorite thing about squad 44
Yeah, "arcade" FPSers cannot fathom how STAMINA is an integral part of any REALISTIC shooter game...
I'm sure OWI is wording themselves carefully because of how messy the state of UE5 games are, it's almost a buzz word at this point. Yet I'm glad because they still have performance in mind

Won't happen any time soon, if at all. The video title comes close to being misinformation.

this is a game i would buy if it wasn't on the steamy pile.
this is funny. The video has 2000 views. they are watching this game. but how to play it, no thanks. we need to raise it online and not all this
