This weekend we were discussing classic mode in teamspeak .
I think it sounds pretty interesting, and we should consider trying it out. Maybe converting the US Hardcore server to a classic mode server. If it sucks we change it back? That way we have 3 server types, a softcore, hardcore, and pudgy core.
Since the EU HC server got rid of its minimap its like a regular HC server now. so we have 2 regular HC servers. vary it up a bit and have one of each server type. I think it would be cool, but if nobody wants it not a big deal either. just thought I would bring the idea up. it basically plays like BF2, and I loved BF2.
Some highlights of classic mode
no doritos when spotting
softcore damage model/health, but no health regen or auto repair
Only spawn on squad leader
you lose bullets in your mag if you reload before empty
no 3rd person vehicle cam
friendly fire off by default
killcam disabled
I tried it out the other day and enjoyed it. I think it would be a bit more tactical than softcore, but still able to utilize all aspects of battlefield like minimap unlike hardcore. I think friendly fire should be on, and i wonder if we got a classic mode server going if we could turn it on or if that would throw it into a custom server field.
What are you guys thoughts on this mode, and maybe trying it out?
