Anyone up for BC2 hardcore ?

Much more like it. I love Project Reality and have been sorely disappointed with 90% of the maps and servers in BFBC2. Until I played on "hardcore" this evening, soooo much better.
I'd like to see less snipers, limited run/jump and less overpowered RPGs/grenades etc. THEN we'd have a fantastic game, it would slow the whole thing down.
Oh and Kill cams?!!!? Bl00dy hate them! Please make can we have them off by default?

I think hardcore mode is like marmite- there are those that swear by it and those who absolutlely detest it (me included). I like the increased hit reg/ less bullets to kill but no crosshair/ no minimap makes it useless for me.
I sincerely hope this is not how competitive play in the future is on bfbc2.

I love it, the number of times on a normal server I have put over an entire clip of SMG into someone and still have to whip out my pistol to finish them off is just ridiculous.
That said, I am getting used to the HS mechanics in this game, so that gap is closing.

The problem when introducing "well what would really happen" scenarios into it is that if you're talking about an actual combat situation I wouldn't have the choice between ducking and standing or staying within the invisible confines of a few hundred square metres would I? The list of differences between games and reality is rather long, so why is weapon damage the sole facet of FPS games that 'defines' realism?
The reason games are balanced the way they are is mostly due to the very limited interaction you can have with the environment within the game, even if you look at something like OFP/Arma, seen as the pinnacle of realism, they aren't even remotely realistic... just slower paced and clunkier than your average, which is about all FPS games can offer you, different paced versions of Quake 3, regardless of how you skin it.
Hardcore wouldn't be an issue if it was more aptly named, it's current one denotes an increased level of skill or something equally as misleading in playing it when in fact you're killing tuned game-play balance in one broad stroke so people who aren't that quick or can't aim that well have a bit of a chance of wracking up a few kills anyway.
So how does "normal game" balance work ? Because if i shoot someone once with a .50 sniper rifle, then 3 times with a .45 pistol, for them to turn around and kill me in one shotgun blast, that isnt "balanced" thats just in favor of CQB.
So basically you don't like realistic games? I can't understand why this game takes so may shots to kill, its ridiculous.
Where can i find hardcore mode? Im sick of it when people don't die when i shoot them 7 times in the back from 2 yards away.
Thats not the issue really. Snipers, particularly the higher unlocks should be 1 hit 1 kill anywhere above the waist on hardcore.
They are annoying but play smart and its ok.
I do remember you venting quite hard on the TFU server inevitably quitting due to frustration.
Its understandable but you learn of ways to deal with it.
