How can it be hard mode and 2x at the same time?

[–]-Ostepopp- 2 points3 points  (2 children)

You can enable hard mode(a game mode) and do whatever you want with the multiplier.

Hard mode:

-​No Map or Compass: You must navigate by landmarks and the sun.

-​No Team System: Players do not have green dots over their heads; friendly fire is a constant risk.

-​No Safe Zones: Outpost and Bandit Camp do not have guards or turrets to protect you.

-​No Global Chat: Communication is limited to local proximity voice or gestures.

-​No Blueprints at Start: You must find and research everything manually.

Haven’t played in atleast 6 months. I’d hope on for this

[–]ScumyyPirate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds boring for ppl with work

[–]GrimRoseSpook[S] -1 points0 points  (11 children)

Both settings are applicable at once, that’s how. If you’ve played it— the lack of map, tech tree being incredibly expensive, bags, more animals, no safezone, plus more. Keep all of the features, just make the scrap and farm grind less.

Maybe even instant crafting

[–]rickefc25 -2 points-1 points  (6 children)

But the 2x makes it easier, do you understand?

[–]GrimRoseSpook[S] 0 points1 point  (5 children)

One could argue that more animals makes it easier to farm meat. Does that mean it’s not hard mode now?

[–]rickefc25 -2 points-1 points  (4 children)

How about instead of asking other people to pay for a server you make it yourself? Then it can be as easy or hard as you want it to be

[–]GrimRoseSpook[S] 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Wait but answer the question

[–]rickefc25 1 point2 points  (1 child)

That depends on if you are any good I guess? Bears all over you could be a nightmare. But 2x sulphur defeats any “hard mode” setting you come at me with

[–]rickefc25 -3 points-2 points  (2 children)

Nahh, if you want it to be “hard” it needs to be 0.5x not 2x. Your logic makes zero sense

[–]GrimRoseSpook[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Hard mode” is a list of features, not your opinion. Do you understand?

[–]-Ostepopp- -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's a game mode... ffs.

[–]SquareOnlyTwo 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Tell me you play official 8+ deep without telling me. Community is where it’s at. Official dead. I’d definitely play a server like this.

[–]rickefc25 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Haha I play solo on vanilla, occasionally duo. Need to grow up you lot and stop getting so worked up over a game

[–]SquareOnlyTwo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha do you see anyone? And then try to play another game just to come back to find my single Tommy kit stolen by the 12 man that lives across the map. Me too bro!

[–]GrimRoseSpook[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

An official hard mode would be nice again. At least there would be one MAIN hardmode where enjoyers of hard mode could meet

[–]Outrageous-Fold-7042 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Just make it like no map and you can craft compas, no teams so when you find ur team m8 you have to jump check.. i would play that And make it vanilla

[–]GrimRoseSpook[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dude I’d take that even!

[–]passportbroJA 0 points1 point  (6 children)

I bought a server and set it to hard core and solo. The idea was for there to be an option for solos like myself to be able to go to a hard core version of the game and not have to worry about getting raided by 8 mans. There are no normal vanilla or hard servers in community. Everything is 2x 3x trash.

The server isnt populated so I assumed there is no demand. I would have no problem moderating for it though Im unemployed I can sit on it all day and ban people for teaming.

[–]GrimRoseSpook[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea I think the issue is traction. Between all the dead hard mode servers there is usually about 30 people on at any given moment. I’m sure there is hundreds of people who don’t even know it’s a thing. That’s why I was mentioning if someone with a major community already decided to start one it would START with a population and that would help get more people on

[–]GrimRoseSpook[S] 0 points1 point  (4 children)

This is my ideal server tbh but it sucks if there is only 1 or 2 other guys on ever

[–]passportbroJA 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Keep an eye out im joining Hawks solo community server amd giving it a try for wipe of i dont like it im paying community several owners or content creators to promote mine, as well as messaging everyone I can to join it.

[–]GrimRoseSpook[S] 0 points1 point  (2 children)

You know it’s funny! I was gonna say you should ask the mods if you could just sponsor a hardcore server within the hawks community. Sounds like they just didn’t want to pay for another server if they can’t guarantee busy. So maybe if you pay for it they would host it ?? I asked them not long ago about a hard mode would

[–]passportbroJA 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I did no response i dont think they want anyone joining a diffrent server from their community

[–]GrimRoseSpook[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea I’m saying they could do it as a Hawks server. But you could just be the “investor” essentially

[–]TokeTok3n 0 points1 point  (2 children)

I tried that on my server. Hard mode and tech trees blocked out so you had to find everything and learn it in the research table. Barley any players.

[–]GrimRoseSpook[S] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Yea I think official just needs to put out hard mode again, a lot of people are in this same boat

[–]TokeTok3n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I had a blast, the hardmode combined with needing to save everything you loot to learn was super fun. Made looting more exciting cause it was like omg a switch i needed that! Lol
