New Hardcore Modes For MW2 Wednesday

[CptainCrunch]

Found this on 402s twitter:

We're planning to add a new hardcore playlist to #MW2 just in time for the holiday break. Look for Hardcore Ricochet: HQ Pro on Wednesday!

There has been some comments about not all the modes are in hardcore. Perhaps as time goes by this will change?

This is good news although i do think it might make it harder to find a good populated server in some areas.

It seems like the playlist model just fragments players even more than a server browser did. Some lists I can't get into a game for 5 minutes after lobby merges, host migrations, people leaving and more getting "matched." Then it picks a host where no one has better than 100ms ping.

Which playlists actually have people playing them?

You and about everyone else. I'm happy with TDM and S&D, were the best 2 HC modes. All the other modes just became to chaotic, especially HQ and Domination, if they ever did CTF that might be interesting with an organized group.

seriously if you guys haven't tried HC, try it. everything is 100x more tactical and pace of play is slowed down from the ADD arena style gameplay of standard. i love how everyone is so careful when they move and every move made requires a lot of thinking.

its more than bullets. no hud, no constant minimaps. it slows down the game to a more tactical match. the standard mode is too fast paced, ADD style for my taste; it often turns the game into basically a Q3/UT arena game with modern weapons/skins.

Hardcore is a lot of fun because of those little changes. Its amazing how much it changes the game.

I know there is a lot of regular vs hardcore, but they are all great

I have actually played so much hardcore mode on Cod4, when ever I play a game with a hud it almost feels out of place. Also, I find that hardcore modes except for S&D are way faster than any mode in softcore.

All of that could of been discribed in one word: "CAMPING". Even though it is my favorite way of playing, most of the play is picking unwary wouderers.

not really. if you're camping in one spot w/o moving, the good players will come get you. well i call it tactical, you call it camping.
