I like hardcore but it might be because when I started playing I played hardcore and had problems switching to softcore. I used to shoot at people and incorrectly assume they would die from it.
hardcore with friendly fire off is completely stupid though. |

What game types does the server run? I got up to lvl 29 a short time back but haven't played for a while since, really enjoyed HQ. Found I spent most of my time furiously chasing after enemy bullets to attack with my chest.
If there were mods to turn off airstrikes I don't think I would be quite so frustrated with the game. I just found that setting foot anywhere outdoors meant death by airstrike, if not by claymore or grenade or some guy across the map who kills me with a single shot from a pistol to my shoelace. |

I played softcore once, on Domination, switched to hardcore to give it a try, been in love with it since.
**** yes, I love my G36c, Supressed, Bomb Squad, UAV Jammer and Dead Silence. Sometimes RDS on it if I'm feeling more aggressive. Same with AKS-74u aswell.
Oh, and my most awesome setup? THE LAZ0R SKORP.
Skorpion | ACOG RPG-7/Claymore Sleight of Hand Ex Con/Steady Aim/Dead Silence.
This thing absolutely slaughters people, it's great. |

The server is set up for normal gameplay and team death match format - how ever I believe you can vote to change the map and format. If the pub gets some attention im sure we will have no objections to change the format or map rotation to more of a community based popularity thing i dunno.
Hardcore is just dumb every weapon kills in 1 hit making other guns useless like the sniper. Hardcore is for hardcore amateurs :) who cant cut it on regular mode :P |

Softcore is for easy mode players who can't take being one hit killed without a UAV.
Hardcore balances the guns better, it isn't just "durr m16 rds stopping power martyrdom, p-90 steady aim durr" mode. Snipers are also bloody amazing on Hardcore, no Killcam to keep screwing you up.

I love the Martyrdom perk. It's amusing to see how many people don't pay enough attention to avoid it, including myself. It's particularly useful as I typically use a MP5, so I'm already pretty much in their face. Rush into a camp, die, and if I die close enough, watch them die. :) |

i personally think marty is awsome although i dont use it. but i wish more fps games had that to prevent people from camping all map and shooting you point blank in the back. Deffinatly a good perk.

The server is currently setup for softcore/TDM. However with enough interest we could change it to other settings. I am willing to go ahead and change the settings around to keep things interesting. Another option (if there is enough interest, and maybe some donations as this server and any future ones will be coming out of TFS members pockets) is to get another server (or 2) with various game modes. Anyway hope to see some of you on the server

I used to do the stealth thing too, silenced P90, silenced 9mm, UAV jammer and the quiet perk or whatever it was.

Lol.
Hardcore is what makes snipers work properly. In softcore, it's hard to kill in one shot with a sniper rifle, so you need an automatic weapon to get the second (lethal) shot in. In hardcore, on the other hand, sniper rifles are one-hit-kill, and perfectly accurate. Sure, assault rifles also kill in one hit (I <3 G3), but the scope is still very useful to have on some maps.
Softcore is just stupid. The only gun worth using is the M4, since it's the only gun that can actually hit the target enough times to kill them in a reasonable amount of time. Anything else either does too little damage, has too low a ROF, or too much recoil to beat the M4.
But really, it's all about the grenade launchers. G3 + grenade launcher, overkill, M4 + grenade launcher, martyrdom. BOOM! Even setting it to softcore won't save you from a properly aimed grenade. -----------

What's hilarious is how many idiots will whine and cry endlessly about martyrdom, when really you hardly ever get any kills with it compared to other perks. I absolutely dominate with a silenced G3 + dead silence + claymores, but it's the class with grenade launchers and martyrdom that gets all the crying, despite the fact that they have a much better chance of beating me.
Even last stand is a far better choice, since the extra kills you might get still count towards your kill streak. -----------

I don't know why you think snipers suck in softcore since we just got done playing with snipers in the server and they certainly do kill in one hit (you just need to aim above the knees FYI)

Hint: non-idiots tend to use cover occasionally, and on softcore, tend to use that annoying extra-HP perk. On softcore, sniper rifles kill in one hit if you're lucky. On hardcore, sniper rifles kill in one hit through two cars and a brick wall, no matter what perks the target has. And since you don't need the stopping power perk to get a one-hit-kill, you can take overkill and bring a secondary weapon so you aren't helpless at close range. |

Pfffft.. Softcore, hardcore, medium well core it doesn't matter when a SAW with grip/penetration/damage perks along with a player who knows all the corridor routes is on the map. Endless airstrikes.  |

Grenade launchers mostly annoy me because I keep dying to them. :P
I usually run with a MP5, silenced pistol, claymores, martyrdom, and stopping power. I've actually gotten decent with the MP5 at one time, but it's been a bit since I played a lot, so my reactions have dwindled a bit. I'm not a very good sharpshooter, so my plan is mostly either to run in and shoot them before they can react or run in, shoot, fail and die. A lot of times, I'll camp temporarily when I can shortly expect someone to be around. Place claymores in the pathways and wait for them to come. I don't typically stick around in one place for long, though, unless the enemy's crawling everywhere outside.
It's a rarity that I live long enough to accumulate enough kills to get a heli. Sometimes, I'll get airstrikes. More commonly, I barely live long enough for a UAV. It's incredibly fun.

Will check it out.
Personally I'm a fan of silenced MP5, silenced pistol, flash + dead silence, UAV jammer and something else I can't remember. Been a while, and I have to get my levels up again due to reformat.
Loooved wetwork. I tended to be quite aggressive on it and when combined with good use of flashbangs, the silenced mp5 with stealth perks was lethal. |
