I would actually like it if they made a semi hardcore game (the hp and damage from HC but the hud/ xhairs still

m4/m16 with reflex scope, bandolier, stopping power, deep impact
likewise with snipers, but no acog (cant hold breath) and you dont want to hold down shift for too long as it puts you in that uncontrollable state.

my 2 cents... switch it WINSTON!!!

How is it? I can't wait to get home and play :)

Lemon Merchant
February 7th, 2008, 02:41 PM
ITS P-90 TASTIC. RUN AROUND AND CIRCLES AND DONT USE ANY OTHER GUN!

After I played on the server today I went to a few other regular servers and came to the same conclusion.

Sorry but I do not find it fun in any way. I know people complain that hardcore unbalances the weapons but I like diversity. In hardcore people can use pretty much every gun with some effect depending on the situation.

In the 2 other servers I went too everyone had virtually the same kit using either silenced p90 or silenced m4.

Im going to move onto greener pastures. PM me if you change the server back to hard core.

SharpShooter
February 7th, 2008, 03:30 PM
LOL, w/e buddy I think it balances out the game a lot more, no longer will you find someone that goes like 50-10 or w/e we just played a round of free for all and three of us were all at 29 kills before someone won and one person was at 28, which shows it balances it out.

Normal is quite different than Hardcore and I guess you either love it or hate it or just love the game and can play both and still be happy.

gOOCH
February 7th, 2008, 03:31 PM
p90 isnt good its just easy for noobs to use, get good and u can outfrag them
main kits should be m4, ak, mp5, m60

CdnAgent
February 7th, 2008, 07:01 PM
heh.. i like the m-16, bullet damage, deep impact. The reason behind this is that i can basically use it as an impromptu sniper. However I do like to pull out the m4 lol

Krythos
February 7th, 2008, 09:03 PM
non hardcore = officially gay. p90 rushes on small maps or others and their weapons that somehow kill like they are on hardcore on non hardcore makes it ghey. so I doubt ill be playing on the NR CoD4 servers much since I would rather play on hardcore where I get kills, then non hardcore and I die all the time like im in hardcore

gOOCH
February 7th, 2008, 09:27 PM
that just sums it all up

Mike-KT
February 8th, 2008, 10:03 AM
Wouldn't snipers be more powerful on a normal server? You take from hardcore, an automatic weapon like the p90 which spews one hit kills an change it to a normal server, where it takes more than one shot to kill.

Is it that you can now get close enough to your enemies to make the p90 useful whereas before you had no chance to get within an operable range?

Nekkris
February 8th, 2008, 10:05 AM
Not really imo, you can run around like a tank and take bullets to the face, so you just gotta keep your head down till you regen and then keep on pushin~

Cleavage Monkey
February 8th, 2008, 11:59 AM
I'm still getting used to it but I didn't mind it that much. You actually have to aim a little better now to get a hit / kill.

Nekkris
February 8th, 2008, 12:06 PM
No way.
Before it was kill or be killed, now it's more along the lines of..
Shoot, shoot, shoot, reload, shoot, maybe kill, run around take a few bullets, turn around, shoot, shoot, shoot, reload, maybe another kill, keep running till you see a yellow blimp on your map, find him, shoot, shoot, shoot, reload, shoot, shoot, out of ammo!! PISTOLE!!! PISTOLE!! RELOAD!! PISTOLE!! PISTOLE!! /dead

heh, but if it's what we gotta do for cal, it's gotta be done.

Cleavage Monkey
February 8th, 2008, 02:00 PM
Don't forget to not let them get to close to you while you are shooting them as they will knife you. That guy last night in Shipment knifed me about 15 times while i was emptying my gun on him.

Hieyeck
February 8th, 2008, 02:05 PM
Haven't tried COD4; I heard it was like BF2, but 15 times laggier.

CdnAgent
February 8th, 2008, 03:50 PM
... It takes some skill now. try an assault rifle and go for the somewhat distanced shots, normal makes the game so that you have to aim...
Sure, there are still those people that take the p90 and spam... but heck... i remember taking out skully and cray at a distance. Choose your shots, move, and you will get yourself a good k/d ratio.
Also, dont forget to toss back those nades, or cook em. flashes and stuns are helpful, and pick up the bullet damage perk as it once again.. makes those kills a bit easier to get.

Get to learn the game the way it was designed, lol

that was when i was first playing the game, and other than squeebo ive been saying no hardcore for a while

Krythos
February 9th, 2008, 10:37 AM
well to each their own, BUT, for those of us who ARNT rank 55, we are missing unlocked weapons and such that when we come across someone who is, otherwise, our equal, or abit better then us, we ger raped because of the difference in the weapons aswell. for example, me and agent vs nekkkris, neither of us could touch him and he killed us as easily as he would have on hardcore. thus, in my opinion, hardcore makes for a better time for everyone because you dont need to be super accurate or have the best guns in the game in order to kill good.

gOOCH
February 9th, 2008, 10:51 AM
OMFG no, THE BEST guns in the game are mp5 and m16, m16 is also probably the easiest to use on normal as it has no recoil, wtf guns are he using that u cant touch him, the main advantage he has is being able to carry 2 guns, but if thats such a big deal why dont we make our server have everything unlocked

Nekkris
February 9th, 2008, 10:52 AM
Alot of the lower level guns are pretty solid,
M4, M16, Skorpion, M20, ect.

To me it just takes refinding out what's good, like slight of hand and dead silence with a m14 isn't as good because the m14 is no longer a 1 shot kill, and since the need for a silencer arises the iron sights are ugly as sheit.

Many more examples but the point is, adapt or die =].

you mean hardcore makes it a better time for people that aren't good, because they can still kill good people even though they have less skill. Based on what you said, Normal makes it harder to be good at the game, and Hardcore makes it easier for bad players. so... just get good instead of wanting it back to hardcore? haha ;)

gOOCH
February 9th, 2008, 11:57 AM
basically hate to say it but the people who are complaining have been bad at css too lol, but i guess its a pub and we are here to have fun, and if thinking ur good by killing people who are good in the back or side makes you feel good, then u are having fun

Exactly. I have another great HC server if anyone is interested (PM me because I wont post it here out of respect)

However if I wanted to use the same guns and shoot people multiple times I would be playing CSS. After 4 years of source though Call of Duty on hard core was so refreshing.

MaLeK
February 9th, 2008, 12:41 PM
Call of duty 4 on hardcore is like any rainbow six game (other then vegas), so ye who sees you first and shoots wins hahah, so all you really need is some bugger in a really good place to just kill you....again....and again...and again mind you i play on both so they make no diffrence just less bullets for hardcore.

nekkkris, you still made a crappy example. as I said how all the good shits at the top, dead silence is level 44. im 27 at the moment, and unless you play koth up alot, the points you get are minimal now. though I do agree that the lower level guns can be good, you were useing the m14 I think it was and I was useing my M4 with laser stopping power and deep penitration and you were shooting me up in 1 or 2 hits where I shot you like 7-8 times and you still didnt fall.

or when I was useing my sniper, I hit you atleast 4 times and you still killed me in what seemed less hits.

thus the populace we did have was already low but hardcore players, and they all stoped playing pretty much because when before they could get a few kills, now they dont even match up.
Because of this, alot of people who are not at a high level, once they discover hardcore, wont go back till after they are that level, since before a high level, they will die 30-40 times before they get 4 kills

gOOCH
February 9th, 2008, 01:25 PM

omg when did we switch to normal? i say we wait an equal amount of time since we first switched to hardcore to attract new players who enjoy and appreciate non hardcore servers sryslybutnotrly


normal sucks ass
u suck

OMG GREAT EXAMPLE, 7-8 TIMES? WITH STOPPING POWER????
here is the problem, u didnt hit him 3 times cause you have to l2controlrecoil, which seems to be very little in this game, yet all of you guys still complain

Dead silence is good, but you can still UAV jam and use silencers
I haven't used the m14 much I think that was Rez but, it's just a little weaker than a sniper, it's also single shot and has hip spread
M4 is a fully automatic rifle, there's a difference, you can pump out bullets faster
Snipers are 1-2 hit kills, you either missed a few times or well ... yeah missed
Most servers are non-hc, because it's how the game was ment to be played
Our regulars are newbs who can't adapt aka why they don't wanna play regular
Once again, starting weapons are pretty solid and you get most of the essential perks, none of the higher up ones are OP, there just different for customization
Though g000ch is a big dick he's kinda right
Though if the tears don't stop, we could always have two servers?

SKULLCRUSHER
February 9th, 2008, 02:39 PM
We will have two servers soon enough if its warranted. However if the normal one appears to be empty it will be converted or removed.

CdnAgent
February 9th, 2008, 03:03 PM
I say 2 servers, in order to satisfy some of the community.

As well... referring to Krythos, Nekkris, and Chris. The early guns are GOOD guns, thing is, you have to learn how to use them. In normal, use your damage perks, not the ones that make you hide. The Red-dot scope is AMAZING to use on your assault rifles, unless you enjoy and can use the iron sights (m4 for example) in which case the silencer will do you good.

Secondly, sniping is kind of an art on normal... dont bother with the iron lungs or being stealthy, as when you shoot you are going to draw attention to yourself in normal. This being said, choose your shots, take out the head, or upper chest where it is normally a 1 hit kill.

SMGs, silenced + damage + whatever you feel like... use your sights and you should do well.
Simple.


As for the whole HC n-HC issue. Since we started off on HC mode, we have attracted those ppl to the server, sure. But with no one really wanting to give normal a chance...what can we actually do. I agree that this is not a forced community... we have votes on it for a reason. Secondly, It would also be a great experience for people to actually play the game how it was designed, and get better.

As for the CSS remarks previously, I SUCK at CSS a fair bit of the time... but I love normal on CoD4...why? i dont know... the environment etc... So just saying cuz you are bad in one, you're going to be bad in the other is not a fair argument... *glare*... Everyone has their moments.

K.. so Im done venting for a bit.. if you want to take it up with me... come to the vent server, public lobby... as Im goign to be freaking out with regards to school crap.

TYVM, k thx bai.:D

cod4 has less recoil, and at the level our pub is at, doesent require aim or reflexes 73.63% of the time in terms of getting a kill, its generally an easier game
compared to css, you get shot in the back or side much more
in css i felt like i could play the game strategically, like chess, but cod4 is like fucking 4 corner soccer or a simple card game where things are out of your control and random
the air strikes and helicopters were fun, but the game is getting boring now and its wearing off, the uav is pretty annoying and encourages random nades and such

SKULLCRUSHER
February 16th, 2008, 09:50 PM
As many of you may have noticed the COD4 server has been pretty much empty since we turned it to normal mode. In an effort to repopulate the server and continue catering to players and members who actually want to PLAY on the COD4 server, it has been changed back to HARDCORE !

I played a map on normal a week or so ago (and granted I suck ass now) but I shot someone point blank with a full clip (and yes it was ON THEM)...nothing. They killed me with a burst.

And please remember this coming from someone who spent alot of time on COD4 before, have been lvl 55 for awhile, used to be able to aim, and have played both HC & Normal. HC IMO is just plain more fun. I was dragged (quite unwillingly might I add) from COD4 :p
