Yea hardcore on there settings is dumb; sure it takes like 6 shots on normal mode but at least you can ATTACK on attack mode lol its basically slaughter if hardcore is on....
also getting sniped out of the air is STUPID.... ugh....
So on hardcore imma give it a 2/10 for lacking the basic principle of a game... fun!
i do hope they make it server side configurable...

I'm kinda with WannaB on this one. It's such a huge environment, being able to be killed with a shot or two from what is ultimatly 2 miles away is a pretty unfair advantage IMO. WItha 14 second spawn time, of 20 minutes played I was spawning for 19 minutes of it.
Of course, I was attacking, if I was defending I probably would have loved it. I'm sure there's a balance in there somewhere.
I had no problem with the regular game play and found it a nice challenge.

I kind of agree that HC mode in BF BC2 is need of some help. So should we go with normal mode on our server?

I havent played BC2 yet, but that squad rush game type could be cool on hardcore, I would think, but yea, hardcore w/ all the vehicles and stuff would suck.

well i actually like and dislike HC mode... i do like not having the HUD and the bullets being stronger is nice, but i wish they were not quite as strong....

well let's review this again...... we are not sold on running the assault mode on all our servers so if we do run hardcore then there won't always be a team solely attacking and one solely defending.... so the unfair advantage for the defending team won't be there. the hardcore mode sure cuts down on the run and gun cause if you just run out in the road, you will die fast... it makes you use the tanks and stuff more efficiently.. i think hardcore is something we should revisit when we have our own servers.

well from what i have seen you may be able to run something in the middle like hardcore mode with mini-map and cross-hairs and hud ect which i think would be great
