Any chance we could go Normal Conquest

[Raven Paradox]

Hardcore isn't my forte. After sitting afk for about an hour last night with no one joining the server, I got bored and joined a normal conquest server and did so much better. I donno if it was just the enemies I was playing against, but it seems like in Hardcore if you miss the first shot you're screwed. I also have been thinking that is the main reason people aren't joining at certain times. Although population is increasing, I notice a lot of 64 player conquest servers are constantly full.

Just a thought. I'll still play here but hardcores not my cup of tea apparently.

[Schultzy]

Softcore is... OK. I prefer hardcore.

[Cain]

Softcore !??! Not planning on it.

Take a look at our last poll....

One thing many do not realize it we have an incredibly high level of play here at Cains. Most folks notice if they play on another server they can be an upper third player easily, and may struggle to be a middle third player here.

We have some of the very best players as our regulars, and HC definitely makes you play carefully - no running down the middle of the street and living....

That has more to do with the amount of camping that happens in hardcore than skilled players imo.

[goldenfooler]

Well is it camping or keeping people from flanking a position. I am just to bored unless people keep throwing themselves in front of my gun. < I do that to others>

Hardcoooooore! It's HaRRRD!

Camping:
1 : to make camp or occupy a camp
2: to live temporarily in a camp or outdoors —often used with out
3: to take up one's quarters : lodge
4: to take up one's position : settle down

Defending:
1 : to make camp or occupy a camp
2: to live temporarily in a camp or outdoors —often used with out
3: to take up one's quarters : lodge
4: to take up one's position : settle down

Defending is the new Politically correct way to say you dont help much.

well if killing the enemy helps the count then defending would be a good course of action.. Now what is the defination of sniping?

snipingpresent participle of snipe (Verb)
Verb:

1. Shoot at someone from a hiding place, esp. at long range.
2. Make a sly or petty verbal attack: "the brothers sniped at each other".

Both of those sound about right

The way Raven TKs everyone, it would be a good move! lol

Eh, I just look both ways first, and I survive.

[Jeffro]

I'm getting pretty good at Mortaring everybody. So i'm happy with hardcore.

You mean when they run in front of my vehicle or decide to put their ass in my scope right when an enemies head pokes out?

It'd also be nice to not be running down a hallway, looking at a group of your teammates on the minimap on the other side and being like "Oh good here's my team" and then have about 5 of them putting their clips in you. It's even worse when they don't apologize...

[jaspurr]

Minimap, you can see team mates on the minimap. So thats triangles and players I can't see. Need to get my Nephew in me thinks to look at setup

[Raven Paradox]

I actually take this back. I tried on Conquest normal when the server was dead, and got annoyed with having the only useful thing in a jet (Air Radar) being useless since I'm always spotted. I also got annoyed not being able to 1 hit kill enemies when I snipe them.

I guess I'll just have to become a 24/7 sniper, because I tried doing medium range with my SCAR-H and am horrible at it (despite it being by far my best weapon). I picked up the sniper, and ended up doing pretty well with it. But don't worry folks that hate snipers, I'm a vehicle whore at heart <3.
