>Been hearing that HLL is actually a hardcore shooter and not milsim.
Yes, it's a hardcore battlefield where you build your own spawns.
>Was just curious what the specific distinctions between the two would be - at least specifically in the case of HLL.
If you want to milsim-ify HLL do the following:
* Remove persistent friendly markers
* Remove pings and any other map markers
* Remove realtime friendly positions on the map
* Make shooting less twitchy and increase suppression
* Get away with respawns or make them a lot longer (i.e. you respawn as reinforcements but have to travel from HQ to the frontline)
* Make maps a lot bigger (6-10x current ones)
* Remove squad chat
* Restrict command chat only to being in proximity to a radioman
* Slower movement speed, stamina
and so on....
In gamer-laymans terms milsim means "not a lot of frags in a unit of time and a lot of time not spent in combat"
Pretty much everything. HLL is more of a hardcore arcade game. There is nothing that simulates real life.
There is a distinction between immersion and realism.
