Hell Let Loose has just received a fresh hotfix update, version 1.045, aimed at addressing some of the annoying issues players encountered after the big 17.1 patch was released last week. This small but essential update tackles server crashes, building access problems, and a few other quirks — so if you’ve been struggling with those, relief might be just a download away.
The 17.1 patch was huge, adding features such as medic improvements, a look at mode, and enhanced admin camera features, essentially a multitude of changes that shook up the game. But with big updates come bugs, right? This 1.045 hotfix won’t solve everything, but it does address some of the most nagging problems that have arisen.
What’s Fixed in Hell Let Loose Update 1.045
- Occasional server-side crashes on some community servers got addressed.
- Daytime flares have been re-tuned for better visibility.
- Fixed Panther Heavy Tank spawning issues on North Africa maps.
- Resolved building access problems on the Kharkov map.
- Corrected the bipod ping to align properly with Lewis Gun sights.
- Added the missing “Toggle Auto Orbit” option back to the Admin Camera UI.
Honestly, it’s kinda reassuring to see these fixes rolling out so quickly. Server crashes are the worst, and that Panther Heavy Tank glitch? Yikes. I’m curious if this will improve gameplay flow on those North Africa maps or if more tweaks are still needed.
Given how massive the 17.1 patch was, I wouldn’t be surprised if we get more updates soon to tackle balance changes and other bugs that didn’t make it into this hotfix. Expression Games seems pretty active on this front, so fingers crossed for smoother matches ahead!
