they gave us a hardcore official server at launch but it had all standard settings, (like still had crosshair and full HUD with the same player HP as regular modes) and wasn't truly hardcore, they removed it soon after, (I'm hoping to fix the settings and bring it back online) but until that happens i wont be playing BF6 anymore, its really a disappointment since the hardcore mode is what really brings the game to life, without hardcore its just another bullet sponge game that requires you to use only the top 2-3 meta weapons in the game or get no kills.
