So I played a bit of Hardcore last night. It was fun for a few rounds since I felt like sitting back and sniping. I normally don't have the patience or skill to snipe, so playing a mode with one-shot kills with the most basic sniper was a bit of fun. But HC gets old fast. My fun time ran out when it switched to a map I had never played before and had no idea where the enemy was coming from (a Rush map, in the mountains with green/orange/brown terrain and trees, start from an island).
That's the snipefest map.

...

FFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

Not only did I not have a minimap, I was not able to open the regular map while being out in the open (which is everywhere), and I was dying a lot from places I weren't sure whether they were in-bounds or out-of-bounds

After you get a platinum star for a weapon you no longer receive anymore for that particular weapon?

I've seen people with 2 gold stars but never a platinum one. How the fuck would you see the difference between silver and platinum?

How do you get a platinum star? Is that like 3 gold stars? 5? 10?

Oh and today I got noob tubed by someone with 8 gold stars on the nade launcher. Fucking pathetic. And the fact that the people with the tubes can give themselves ammo... fuck that shit.

I got a platinum star around 1000 kills with the m16, after like 5-6 gold stars(i think?), and thought to myself, awesome, now I can get a free 10,000 points every once and a while to help with the rank increases. But I checked the bfhq thing and it just says 0 kills to the next one, so I'm guessing the free points are over with that weapon.

True, but dropping mines and killing a tank 5 minutes later from the other side of the map is priceless.

Ugh. This game. It bounces between extremely fun and awesome, and extremely frustrating and annoying. The team balancing/stacking is ridiculous. And then just now I was in a server that switched to hardcore after a round. They need to stick with one mode or the other, not this mixed up shit.

When servers restart they come back as regular. They won't go hardcore until an admin comes on so maybe he was around for the first time all day and put it back like it was supposed to be.

Platinum would look more dark greyish?

More of a yellowish silver actually.

I just got platinum for the noob tube as well. Does this make me a bad person?

Yes, it makes me want to punt babies into oncoming traffic.

I played against a rank 3 player with a double gold star with the noob tube, I mean seriously fuck off back to consoles where they aim for you.

Fucking hell.

I either do amazing or I get absolutely raped while still racking up points.

I got knifed like 3 times my last round... though I got revenge twice.
