This game has to have a HC mode, its still the best way to play BF4 by a long shot. Certainly separates the COD fans from the true BF vets.
- @MaratBoy bye bye look I've played a lot of HC but the fact remains that there is just not enough players for DICE to justify it. And the HC player base is so dogmatic and fractured in regards to their version of HC that they will boycott the mode if just one setting is not to their exact wish.
You set up a HC server but because you didn't turn 3rd person vehicle view off those who think it should be off to be proper HC will never play in the server..
Portal throws the settings argument back to the community and says make it work, DICE have tried to make the game more HC but the softcore base from BF4 just won't stand for it.
So don't throw a sad, take this once in a franchise opportunity to show DICE how HC is done and build a community and prove to them by sheer weight of numbers how this game should be played.
Because that's what our clan has been doing with BFV. And other clans here in Australia have been doing with community games to have the HC population at 50% some nights. Unfortunately Community Games don't work on Xbox for me. They never show up in the server browser.

- Hori-Si-Tsun4 years agoSeasoned Traveler@No1StingerUserUK Us hardcore only players look at it the other way around, mostly cause of how the old ping system used to work and the fact that bulletspunging as if you are Master Chief feels really silly. Balance is a no issue, in hardcore anything will work, its in normal balance is a hughe issue.

I only really play the Hardcore modes, but will play core if the TK is faster than normal..
DICE did say its a love for the fans lets hope they did not over look us the Hardcore Fans..

This here is exactly why there needs to be a hardcore mode......

In BF4 even the lowest damage output automatic primary weapon (U-100 Mk5 as far as I'm aware) will kill you in just a hair over half a second if the shooter is accurate. Less with headshots. A FAMAS will kill you in 300ms with only body shots; 120ms with 2 headshots (faster than the typical human reaction time).
Using the "TTK is too long in normal" argument is not doing much to dispel the stereotype that hardcore players can't aim...

And even still for the extreme HC that is not enough. We have some extreme HC servers running on PlayStation with the soldier health at 40% and the bullet damage modifier set at 300%.
Its so extreme so even just by looking for a bit too long at a thrown flare and you are dead! 😂
