Difference between Normal and Hardcore?

Recommended Posts

Exactly what is the difference, I tried a quick forum search but theres so many uses of the word "hardcore" it would take me a week just to find the correct one.

Normal(3rd person) Hardcore(1st person) and each character is on a separate shard of the Main Hive. That's it in a nutshell.

Currently that is all the difference i believe( rocket said it but everything is up to change at any point hence the i believe lol ) that in future other mechanics will be implemented or difficulty increased to further spread the two.

 

But yeah as of now its just like what we had before servers with 3rd on or off except now they keep the characters seperate by saving them on a different hive..

I have this feeling, theres gonna be more differences down the road.
Im having a hard time understanding the seperation of the DB, for nothing but a view preference :) Theres gotta be more to it tbh.
Perhaps removing crosshair, player list and other stuff, to make it truly "hardcore", dunno hehe.

So far, ive not been able to find any kind of info supporting this "feeling", so its a waiting game, like with so many other things :)

Crosshair gone would be good, and there'd probably be less loot. Also, maybe reduce sprinting time from infinite to 3 minutes.

Something along thoose line, but they need to be carefull, so it doesnt turn into "a different game" tbh.

It could have a terrible impact on the community and split it, like we saw with the 1000's of mods (exaggerated, but true really)

 

Stick to minor changes, to make it more difficult, but still keeping it the same game, would be ideal.
