Petition for more hardcore modes and a small playlist revamp

I'm sure there's a lot more people like me, who only play the hardcore modes, and have been playing this game since cod4 or even earlier and bought all the dlc. So I will kindly request the devs to give us hardcore players atleast half of what the core players are already getting.

 

1. We want to play the faceoff maps too, if you're gonna sell them as dlc please give hardcore players the chance to play them too.

 

2. We want to play Demolition, Capture the Flag and Sabotage

 

3. We want Team Tactical back!

 

I would also suggest you to revamp the playlists so that you would move all core modes from the hardcore playlists to other "folders" (like barebones and core team tactical) and replace them with hc modes. If you can't add all the gamemodes, give us Team Tactical and 6 player Mosh Pit with Demolition, Capture the Flag, Sabotage, Headquaters, Domination, Search & Destroy + Kill Confirmed.

 

In a dreamworld the playlist would look like this:

Hardcore -

     HC Free for All

     HC Team Deathmatch

     HC Kill Confirmed

     HC Domination

     HC Headquaters

     HC Search & Destroy

     HC Face Off 1v1

     HC Face Off 2v2

     HC Team Tactical

     HC Mosh Pit

    1) I don't think petitions work on forums. 2) Hardcore community is small. The needs of many outweigh the needs of few and 3) the devs don't about what you think.

    Your wasting your time. Give up.

    the problem with hardcore is that only aound 6-8% of people play it. To pull that amount of resources from the other 90% doesn't work well for business. If there was a larger precentage of the players playing hardcore then yes a revamp should happen but until that happens activision won't put any resources into it. And I'm not being bias, I play only hardcore from cod4 till blops, I stopped playing hardcore in blops because of the lack of game modes plus the camp factor in hardcore seems to increase with each title, in cod4 hardcore was just as fast paced as core but in blops the paced also ground to a holt

    You do have a chance to play those games in Private Match modes you know.

     

    Problem being is that HardCore players are a "small minority of a minority". I believe that quote was from about 9 months ago when they almost completely removed HardCore game modes for good.

     

    They put them down to moshpits.

     

    Heck even us Elite Members have to play our new maps in a mosh pit.

    A quick word about comments about the small Hardcore population. The Hardcore population is the size that it is becuase Hardcore has been poorly supported since this games launch. There were many dedicated Hardcore clans that went back to Black Ops when they saw the games types they played weren't going to be supported. IW hasn't done anything to mend that bridge, infact, they continue to alienate Hardcore players. Then again, alienating the community is becoming SOP for IW.

      like I said the support was one aspect that made go to core but the speed of the game play was another big factor. I couldn't even begin to count the amount of games that went the whole 10 mins because one wanted to move. I don't know if it was poor map design or weather players have become cagey but since cod4 the hardcore play list has become slower and slower. And thats main reason alot of players don't play hardcore.

    I have been actively speaking with  @Ghandi a DEV. As of last week he has stated that he will look into seeing if they can add HC CTF. But in order for them to add HC Modes they have to remove a HC Mode. They cant keep adding Playlist becasue then the gaming population gets spread to thin and searching for games would take a lot longer and the quality of games will suffer. If anything they would probably remove HC HQ because it is the least played HC MODE. A lot of people would like to see HC CTF but if at least some wouldnt be opposedto  a HC MOSHPIT consistiing of these modes... HC DOMINATION, HC DEMOLITION, HC CTF, HC SABOTAGE

    i do agree that there are not many people in the HC playlists.  I like playing both HC and core but let me tell you what the joke playlist is ................. the ELITE playlist is a joke and waste of time and effort. There are more people in the HC DOM playlist alone than all of the ELITE playlist combined... With that being said i liked hardcore bombs that was in blackops...

    Just so you know...

     

    1) Petitions are a no-no.

    2) IW/SH doesn't like HC.

    3) They will not add anything, only replace what's there.

    4) You can't use reason with Core-boys, so, don't try.

    5) #MOARhardcore has been asked for and ignored for months.

     

    Focus your HC efforts on BO2 because it's a lost cause with MW3.

    Here is where I just asked Ghandi again. And if you go back some pages in this post it will show where he answered me and said they would look into it.

    I agree with the OP for the most part. I am a player of ALL game modes available except S&D because I'm terrible at it (I rush too much).

     

    However, after playing game modes such as demo and sab. these modes are already crazy enough in core. Imagine how much spawn killing there would be in HC.

     

    For example: Core Domination and HC Domination have virtually the same spawns for the most part but in HC Dom its nothing to be spawn killed instantly 5-6 times in a row (this doesn't happen in core).

     

    I would love many things in HC like :

     

    HC Groundwar

    HC CTF

    HC HQ (like it was in BO, not what this game has)

    HC Drop Zone

     

    BUT... as much as I would love that, I know it would be a love/hate for those game modes due to the chaos that it would be.

     

    My advice to you would be if you want to play them that bad, just learn to play them in core. BO2 will probably have the biggest the focus on HC ever in COD (many rumors say this also).

     

    The truth is MW3 has already passed its peak and the more people leaving this game to go to others only decreases the urgency for IW/SH to improve this game.

    I would love to see where people are getting their Stats about Hardcore players... there are many of us out there.

     

    The best point the OP makes is this. We pay for the DLC like everyone else, and its ridiculous to not make it available on all playlists. Just because you don't play Hardcore, doesn't mean you can say its fair we don't get all the game modes. I don't have much faith in IW or SH to listen to these requests however, so I don't expect much change.

    Well just like us gamers that completely hate QS'ers and dropshotters, IW caters to what ever group they feel might benefit their overall sales and playability. I have already refused to ever buy another IW game that allows QSing, I know one man wont really make a difference but its still a stand that needs to be made. Maybe if you hardcore guys stop playing MW3 altogether, heck stop buying IW games till they cater to you as well. The only thing these guys know is money and play time of their game, stop that and they will recognize you. Hit'em where it hurts people!
