Re: Hardcore mode available!
Whenever you see newer players, what kit do they most often choose? When your team gets capped out in a round of Kubra Dam and the USMC is hunting down that last lone player who happens to be a low rank player (not that the ranking system means jack, but it at least is generally indicative of time spent playing), what kit is that player using? When you see this video:
and wonder why the attacking team has less than a zero percent chance of winning because half the team is oblivious to anything other than what's in their own scope, what class do you think those oblivious players are playing?
That's right...sniper. n00bs love sniper kits. Love them. Now, when you give one of these players a voice, the first suggestion he has on a forum is 'Make the sniper rifles a one-hit kill ffs!!!', without even the slightest clue as to how unbalanced this would be for the other three/four/six kits in the game that they annoyingly have to cycle through before selecting recon/sniper at the spawn screen. Now imagine if those n00bs got their wish and anything they clicked on with their sniper rifle died instantly.
THAT is what Evant3k is talking about. A mode where these things actually happen and you no longer have to aim for the head to get an OHK with the sniper, thereby requiring less skill to get that instant-kill and even further promoting the sniper class. People that already think the sniper class is the best thing since foosball tables will now have even more incentive to play the class, and now you'll have them able to take down players that are far more skilled than they are with just a single click.
