I've played since beta when the only map was Port Valdez with regular mode and I've deeply enjoyed the game.

In regular mode you're able to get shot multiple times and still manage to survive and kill your aggressor but that changes in Hardcore when getting shot once will usually result in your death.

I know it is harder to play Hardcore because it definitely slows the pace of the game because you can't simply run-n-gun anymore but I think the fun lies more in the tactical side of the game. Flanking plays an even bigger role and keeping a flank when defending is key because they'll simply roll you if you don't.

I find the game is more think before you move kind of tempo now.

So, does anyone else enjoy HC or is it just me?

Also... I see why people hate on people who make compilation videos when they're in Regular Mode, spotting & map makes the game WAYYYY too easy.

TLDR: I like HC, anyone else? If not, why?
