Hardcore Game mode

(Nosferatu) #1

Hey,

I would like to make a suggestion for a new game mode in future updates, namely some sort of Hardcore mode or ruleset. Where the S.M.A.R.T. button is disabled and you would have to imput all the parkour movements yourself. Which can already be done, but is not forced.
The button would only be used to sprint, even when you hold it. I’m pretty sure there are other people who would like to see this and it can’t be that hard to implement with the NetVar codes.
Maybe even add some extra damage to weapons and melee, other suggestions welcome.

as a variable, I don’t have an issue with this, but it should be up to the player as opposed to a game mode.

In regards to the higher damage, I can’t really say until we get the new patch.

The thing is if you make SMART more difficult, boost the damage, and if the patch reduces spread, there will be no reason to use SMART once you reach the battlefield. Trying to pull fun stunts will just get you killed.

I think a hardcore mode would be cool (Lower spreads and lower damage…not extra damage as that would be a casual mode). However, there is no point in disabling the auto-SMART system, since I don’t think anyone just holds down the SMART button. Its very easy to perform the actions using the jump and crouch buttons, so it wouldn’t be making anything hardcore.

So, to clarify, you’re saying that SD should make the game harder to control for no reason? :rolleyes:

i would like an option to disable auto-smart personally. not necessarily as a game type, but just in the controls options. i already manually do everything, but sometimes i will accidentally slide or wall run due to the auto-smart.

So you want a mode that requires less precision in navigating the 3d-space and you want to call it “Hardcore Mode”?

I think he wants you to manually hit jump and duck to activate the smart movements that result in manteling / sliding etc… I think that that (overall) requires more precision than the current version which simply has one button do everything.
The thing is you can do what he wants already (on PC at least. not sure about the rest), tapping smart will activate sprint and then hitting jump or duck will pull off the usual amount of moves. You don’t need to hold the smart button to do smart moves. Holding it just makes it automatic (and sometimes that means accidentally manteling over the cover you’re trying to run into).

/shrug. Not too sure.

EDIT: I do support the movement to free up netvar control however.
Even if it’s a setting for “Ranked server” and “Unranked”. Ranked can be used for the whole stats website and unranked can be the fun servers where ppl can play with all the netvars they want. Ofc the automatching would use ranked servers only.
But then again I’ve uninstalled the game so I’m not too bothered anymore.

Yes, that is indeed the case, which would obviously make it harder. But I’d like to add that the console version does indeed support that already.

I would also like to say I ment it as an additional Game Mode. And I would also like to see less indicators, lower health to complete it as a full game mode. It would have no point or be unfair in other modes if it were just optional settings.
