TMD Hardcore Mode. Yes, this existed. [Disscussion Topic]

[Challenge_]

So. I know I haven't been around as long as some, but I have been here for awhile. And there's something I've been begging for since it got removed. Hardcore TMD.

For those of you who don't know, Hardcore mode was essentially Hell Night, but with no winner and on steroids.

1. No TMD commands. At all. Except for I think /play. No thirst, feed, needs, tpa, tpahere, near, SZ, warp, NOTHING. Not even kit. Ranks meant nothing. You were all survivors.
2. No kits. You had to spawn somewhere random, and with an empty water bottle. That's it.
3. No safe zones, or the perks that come with them. Safezones were on the map, but the gates were open and they were just regular map locations. This also meant...
4. No vaults/shops. All you got was what you looted.
5. No money.
6. No Jugg/Legendaries.
7. No shout. Only local.
8. PVP on. Made for some very panicky low loot/no loot struggles for survival. Jugg 1v1s can never match the adrenaline rush these gave. But why was surviving so important?
9. 10 minute respawn time. If you died, you got kicked to hub, and you couldn't rejoin for another 10 minutes.

Current TMD is definitely much more social than this was. There wasn't much banter and gameplay stress levels can be controlled. You can choose to sit in a SZ and relax, or you can choose to 3v1 juggs for a massive adrenaline rush. But in Hardcore TMD, death could come any time. You might get snuck up on by a desperate player, or maybe you'll bond with a stranger to survive this challenge. The rush was constant. Being surrounded by a horde when all you have is an empty MP5 and a useless sniper mag. Running up to a town with 11 thirst and praying there's water. Seeing a full military geared person in the distance was scary. And zombies actually mattered. It was the true Walking Dead experience.

There's been talk of the server not being what it used to be. I think this is what the server needs to make its way back to what it used to be.

Discuss!

This might seem fun to me as a replacement for "Disabled PVP" servers (TMD-3 and TMD-4) but not as a replacement for the current PvP TMD servers. (TMD-1 and TMD-2)

We used to have TMD-1, -2, and -5 for PVP, and TMD-3, -4, and -7 for PVE. TMDH-1 was in addition.

As long as the current TMD servers remain, I say yes to this idea

So TMDH would have pvp and non-pvp worlds?
That's what I'm getting from this.

But yes, I'd be glad to try this out.

 

[BenGermann]

For the short time it was up I loved it, and I would love to see it re-added in the future.

Who knows? While we do have a line-up of what we want to get done for next couple months this could definitely be a possibility.

There was one world. TMDH-1. It was PVP.

I also think this could be nice, I mean whats the harm in adding it.

 

[DDENGAR]

The 10 minute cool down sounds depressing, I hope this will be added soon since Hell Night is pretty ded as well as playing TMD. I need that realistic aspect back!

 

[Firelillx]

everything but the 10 min cool down from dying. I never understood that. If there is no commands, it shouldn't matter. Just let people keep playing.

 

[Captain_xWolf]

I get why there was a 10 minute cool-down (and I'm probably the only person here that likes it). The cool-down was placed to keep the survivor more aware and vigilant of his/her surroundings, because it had only seem that you had only 1 life, just like in real life. Unlike TMD, where you could die and respawn immediately after x amount of PvP battles, it makes the survivor more cautious picking and choosing battles and finding groups knowing that your life is on the line.

In my opinion, The Mining Dead: Hardcore Mode deserves the Medal of Realism for it's realistic-like style of game mode and it's coordination to The Walking Dead and real life. I await its coming return to the server!

 

[JT900]

Is it bad to say that I think a bounty system should be implemented in the new Hardcore mode?
Such as players that have killed so many other players and stuff.
It would warrant something like that and end up making bounty hunters hunt for the target while also killing off the competition.

More realism on top of the realism.
Woo

Hardcore isn't coming back for sure. This thread was to spark possible interest.
I wouldn't want to add anything like this, personally. I just want the mode back the way it was.

A bounty system would be so cool though!

Make it happen then admin.

just plz no 10 min respawn. I get realism, but if loot is harder and no kits, people have to start over anyways

PLEASE don't tell me you mean /suiciding for a better spawn. Because that's EXACTLY what this mode is against. It's Hardcore mode. If you don't like your spawn... Well that sucks. You have to work with what you're given.
