It's a test cup, to see if the hardcore scene is active enough.

75% of participants will be normal mode teams who just want a cup for 4v4

Then why do all the skilled players play in softcore ;)?
HC is that every1 has a chance to kill everyone :) No skill involved
leaty
No, you both got it wrong. Normal is more widely played because it's the "regular" mode. If things were the other way around, hardcore would be played more instead of normal. Both modes are fine to be played competitively. But we prefer different modes.

OFC we prefer different modes, and I respect that you like hardcore and even hate softcore, but hardcore is just not a competetive gamemode
leaty
That's what you think, don't you think it matters what others think? Anyway, let's not have yet another discussion. If you don't want to play hardcore, don't support this cup with your team. Thanks.

You do know that competetive gaming is supposed to base around skill and not "what others think" just because they can't kill something in a gamemode that requires more skill.
leaty
Another silly reply ey? Just because it takes more bullets to kill someone it requires more skill? No, just no. I'm not even going to hit you back on that argument, perhaps you'll figure it out yourself.

These rules derive from normal mode ladders and will persist through this cup, but hopefully after this cup we will be able to change a few rules. I'd have the spawn beacon implemented again as it is a big part of the game (shooting parachuters, finding and destroying the beacon), and run with true hardcore settings. Please play in the cup regardless, thanks.

Wake island would be beast final :D

A few rules should be changed though, some things remove a lot of the hardcore gameplay, especially the spawn on everyone setting. But we'll see what happens after the cup. Good luck!
Miagi
I bet you didnt enjoy playing against eyeballers.
Let them have HC ladder. Then we can all laugh. lol.
leaty
Just because we haven't had a chance to play competitively with the best teams does not mean we suck, our teamwork may not be great, but our average individual skill can still be great. With some more everyday (almost) practice against good teams (like you have the ability to do in normal mode) we will improve just as you improved. So bug off with your "I'm your boss" replies and either enjoy hardcore or play normal mode, there is no need for your useless hatred.
FYI: We enjoyed it (like I said in the previous post, seems you missed it), two of our members playing in this cup are new since 1-2 weeks back (one member can't play in the cup, so we needed a replacement). While we lost (yeah I'm not going to lie) we gave them a good match, all we need is more practice.

Let's just hope Origin isn't down during the cup.
never mind, that is tomorrow >.<

You can play on the server of your opponent if they have one.

Idea is that get good :O We shouldn't have to play some random public no-skill gamemode just because people want to play 4v4
