Does everyone play Hardcore team deathmatch?
I tried it a few times and just find it's much more fun than having to put a full clip into someone before they die.
I still get more kills on the normal mode but I only play it for the fun.
I was quite awful at the game to begin with, my first CoD online, only just recently got more kills than deaths....had a lot of bad rounds as a newb...
I'd probarly be happy starting all my stats again, also cbf waiting so long to get new ranks now im level 54 or something.
