We should totally get a hardcore metro server when it comes out, or a hardcore server in general. I hate it when people know where I am on a darn minimap as soon as I fire a gun. Yesterday I went 27-4 on hardcore because no one could find me compared to the 15-10 on our normal server :mellow:
 
One cure for that is to use a supressor. Frankly, I like how normal mode was done in BF4, it feels very similar to hardcore on BF3. I've played hardcore on BF4 and it was instadeath all the time, felt too much like COD
 
I am starting to get used to normal servers and it is finally starting to show. I am so used to a quick spray and move onto the next target from hardcore; however in normal servers, when you do that you die to that person. I do miss hardcore though and would be on it all the time if we ever got one. For now all we can do is recruit!
 
HARDCORE already came out I got onto a server where mini map was not on so unless im wrong and hardcore is not released then there is an option to disable mini map from server RCON
 
I do enjoy the hardcore play, especially not being able to see a kill cam, lets you set up better for big multi kill streaks.

This. And I like the quicker kills and it is way more realistic. You don't see your life, making it a lot more challenging. You don't see your ammo, making you think about when you should reload because you don't get the bullets back from the dropped mag. There is more elements of surprise because you can legitly sneak around without being detected by the darn minimap that wouldn't be there on a real battlefield :P

It already takes half a clip from the PP2000 to kill someone on the normal server. The last thing I need is to add a silencer which further weakens the gun, just to hide from the damn minimap.
 
I'm right there with you, Cheezy. Unfortunately, this thread is going to be tossed on the pile with all the others asking for a hardcore server.
 
The bottom line will always be the same. Go out and recruiting! Rank up our servers and I am sure you will see another one come along.
 
The problem with that logic is I don't like playing on our servers. I don't like the game mode. It doesn't seem to be an uncommon opinion. It's not about the number of servers, it's about the servers we have. Let's do a quick breakdown.

If you want to play:
Normal Conquest we have 3 servers
Normal Obliteration we have 0 servers
Normal Domination we have 0 servers
Normal Rush we have 0 servers
Normal Deathmatch we have 0 servers
Hardcore Conquest we have 0 servers
Hardcore Obliteration we have 0 servers
Hardcore Domination we have 0 servers
Hardcore Rush we have 0 servers
Hardcore Deathmatch we have 0 servers

You can see that there are plenty of opportunities to expand our horizons. I play normal conquest here and there, but the vast majority of times I log in it's to play something else. Therefore, the vast majority of the time I'm not on eGO servers. When I am on our servers the incentive to recruit is very small because I'll be recruiting people that play normal conquest which I don't like, so I won't ever play with them anyways.

I've resigned myself to the fact that I just don't get to play with eGO guys when I'm playing BF4. I just don't like it much. My other option is to play a game that isn't very fun to me just so that I can play on our servers, in which case I find myself just playing other games.
 
What I am failing to understand is leaderships unwillingness to switch one of the US servers to hardcore. We don't need 2 normal servers. Both conquest 1 an all maps and one a 24/7 Operation Locker server. convert the Operation Locker server to Hardcore Conquest all maps and see how it does. Having only normal servers shows that we do not support hardcore players so why should hardcore players join? I think it is a bad decision on leaderships part.

What if on the real battlefield I have a super advanced helmet with a display minimap that can detect hostile movement :thumbup:

Leadership would come take it away because pubs don't like it and therefore it doesn't promote recruitment. They'd give you a regular paper map as a substitute and tell you that if you want your helmet back you have to get out there and recruit. :blink:
 
Ok guys I am going to chime in here before the quibs get out of hand. As I have said before leadership is also answerable to higher ups, to get more servers we need to show more consistent recruiting numbers for a few months atleast. Being an avid BF player and a veteran of this division I would love to see a many BF4 servers but we need to show that we are able to support them first. The current configs were decided on after careful deliberation within leadership and with all the other communities that support our servers therefore we cannot just get up and change the settings whenever. The configs are also tuned to be more easy to fill and we need that atleast in the starting months of BF4 and specially when the servers are not stable into the first place.

Rest assured if we continue in our excellent month of recruiting, we will get more servers but that takes time. We had a bad habbit of changing configs way to often in BF3 and we struggled throughout. The new DLC is coming out soon and so we will reevaluate everything before that. Hardcore is a fun gamemode and we would surely love a HC server but we need to stand up as a division and deliver first.

Also please keep the quibs on leadership at a minimum, we try to give every member the best experience possible with the amount of resources we have.

Regards

KCK

When we get that, then I'll stop complaining about how unrealistic its and more of how cheap it is to use one :P.

As for KCK, I don't know if you've noticed, but our server (except for the Euro) is always full till like 2AM PST when everyone sleeps. I don't know how much better it can get. I'm not saying to get rid of the Euro server for the hardcore server, but... *hint* *hint* *wink* *wink*

As for recruiting, it's not really my thing. I'll leave it to Tumblin.
 
Cheezy, I'm MrScortch on Origin. Hit me up and we can play some hardcore servers together.
 
Yeah I would still love to see a domination server, I loved it during the beta and I haven't had a chance to play it in the real game yet because I try to play on our servers unless they are full.
 
Dib, I have several TDM/Dom servers on my favorites list. Hit me up and I'll play Domination with you.
