True Hardcore servers!

Recommended Posts

Hi got a few ideas for hardcore servers.

 

  • You got one (1) life.
  • You don't respawn when you die.
  • Once your dead you can never play on that server/hive again.
  • You don't have a dot in the middle of your screen
  • You dont get "bleeding" as a status. (you must look at your body and check)
  • Gear's quality is only visible by how damaged it looks. not a text saying it to you (like damaged in yellow)

 

 

It might get alot of negative feedback, but i think this could work. If its a private hive or like in the mod, where every server was a different hive (you had different character on  every server) think about it. is 1st person really that hardcore?

How do you check your back? If I was bleeding from a gunshot wound to the back I think I'd know about it without having to look at it.

Dot in the middle of the screen is the only one reasonable idea and that has already been discussed and ear marked for HC.

 

So no but thanks for playing  :thumbsup:

Its not hardcore if you got multiple lives. There should be a penalty for dying, more than on regular servers!

 

Wiki:

 

Hardcore (The opposite of "softcore"), a video game character dies permanently forcing the player to create a new character or restart a game. Also, a measure of difficulty to the extreme and not for casual gamers.

Then it turns out our hardcore is the hardcore, since you lose your character after death.

Full perma-death is too much IMO. If I was paying for a hardcore server I wouldn't be happy if all of my friends died and couldn't play there any more, and then what happens if the I die too? I can't play on my own server?

 

I like the other ideas though.

Are you trolling? Seriously? So I pay £20 (or whatever) for a game get killed a few times and the game is unplayable? Nah, seriously you are trolling with those suggestions.

 

  • You don't have a dot in the middle of your screen

 

Now in comparison this is very sensible idea.

 

  • You dont get "bleeding" as a status. (you must look at your body and check)

 

Not a bad idea, although I think you would need to combine it with some sort of audible feedback too as you won't get the physical feedback. It also depends on whether injuries are contextual. ie: if you get hit on the back does it only bleed from that point.

 

  • Gear's quality is only visible by how damaged it looks. not a text saying it to you (like damaged in yellow)

 

Again not a bad idea. It can be a little difficult to tell how damaged an item is from just looking at it though. Some things are very easy (bike helmets, for example) camouflage pants less so.

I like the idea of audible feedback when you bleed, good idea.

 

I can understand mos1ey's argument about 1 life. maybe a middle ground is more possible. what about one life per server restart. its more punishing to die than regular servers. NOTE this only works when there's no hive. when you got a different character on every server. I hope it will be like that in the future (that there's no hive) no matter how easy hardcore is.

or restart a game.

 

Respawning is restarting :faceplam:

 

Yeah I would just love to paying 90 bucks a month for an empty server cause no one can join it as they have all died.

what if nobody died as a result of this crazy rule. that nobody killed anyone but zombies. this would make it so you don't suicide, and KoS. your characters life is worth something more than your gear; the ability to play =P
