I'd like this, but not to those exact standards. 5000$ every death? Hell no. What, do you work for R*?

 

And I think the NPC's are accurate enough, not everyone has military training.

 

With some tweaks, I'd vote yes. But like that, it'd be a ghost town.

 

 

Edit: I'm an idiot that can't read.

 

I'd like to add: Keep radar, as most people have GPS IRL but no one else shows on the map. You can still see who's in the game by pressing down on the d-pad.

 

Cops only come for crimes they witness, or if a witness gets killed before they can report no wanted level.

Blips should be set to far. Add that, lower the $5k death penalty and you've got my vote.

 

Remember in IV when you knew someone was close to you but you had no idea where they were?

That was intense.

[Black Terminator]

I would have said yes but this one changed my mind: Lose $5000 Every Death

[saintsrow]

In answer to the OP question, I would not use a hardcore server if it existed. However, I voted yes because I totally support the idea of all the assholes moving to hardcore servers and getting their asses kicked.

[DeezyGaming]

I support this idea.

[Roronoa Zoro]

Hard pass.

[Aby]

The car wrecks sounds like a good time. It would make chases a lot more intense, so I'd give it a try.

[Biker_J]

Sounds like a good idea, I'd also like the car chases with damageable health.. you'd have to drive with lightning quick reactions when with a 5 star wanted level..

[BatFerYou]

Yeah, why not?

[blackindia]

Increased spawn distance like GTA IV medium or far instead of near (or spawn at hospital).

[ivarblaauw]

Yes in every way except 5000 fee on death. But you already crossed it.

 

I woukd love the game then, it would feel more like Max Payne. But give the option to take health pills with you.

 

Multiplayer of Max Payne in the world of GTA... I love that.

[livejoker]

I love the blips far away setting and the carry two guns option. Would make you think what type of player you want to be.

I think every person wielding a weapon (civilian, cop, military, gang member) should have the aim which they're trained for. Normal cops at this moment have the aim expertise of a goddamn action hero.

Introduce a REAL crouching animation. The "I sh*t my pants" stance sucks. This in turn would make camping an option (we still got campers but you know where they are by playing a lot so it sort of sucks). RDR had this where if you didn't move and, I believe, were crouched your blip would be removed from the map. I'd like to have this option.

I can add many things I'd like to see such as realistic car damage but the two I named (especially the aiming for cops) are, I feel, the most important if they were to be considered. The blips setting is one I'd love to see, it was tons of fun in GTA IV.

[Hylskriksen]

The first three in the list will be bypassed by god-mode. Probably hopeless to implement something like this.
Sounds interesting though, if game was waterproof. Not the bug-o-rama we know gta is today.

No dying in a car crash, I've had enough of that in single player.

+ IV

[senormidget]

I don't know if I'd favour it, but yes I'd definitely play it.

 

Though my version of hardcore mode would be -

 

- Blips only show when you fire an unsuppresed weapon or you're in somebodies line of sight (though line of sight would be a lot more realistic than the current one I.E they can't see through bushes and their vision isn't an infinite distance)

- Primary weapon, secondary weapon, heavy weapon and thrown weapon, E,g, Carbine Rifle, AP Pistol, RPG, Sticky bomb

- Lower health for everyone, one hit kill for headshots and direct chest shots, less damage for hitting limbs or shoulders etc

- Car wrecks wouldn't be fatal still, that sh*t is annoying in SP

- NPCs much less accurate

- No lock-on for Buzzard or Jet missiles

[Staten]

It can't be hardcore if Auto-aim is still allowed, or that players keep their ammo when killed.

 

Anyway, this sort of thing wouldn't work, since there wouldn't be the interest in it to make it a dedicated mode. Perhaps if R* introduce the option to switch off radars, it might be better as a custom deathmatch?

[StangOne50]

No. They should just have a lobby with no cops where anything goes. No changes needed.

Imagine being able to spam your rpg without getting shot in the back by 20 cops . that would be sweet

[gizmonomono]

So when someone in a jet starts spawn killing you I guess your one gun and pistol are gonna help you out a lot

[Guest]

- GTA4 driving mechanics

- Free-aim only

 

 

 

That would make me play GTA again. Hardcore should give x3 cash though. And to stop noobs from playing Casual then going Hardcore to grind RR, once you've picked Hardcore it should be permanent.

[ugotsmoked]

No cop lobby with no pvs and weapons spawn on the ground like a DM.

[Gouveia]

Why not use RDR GOTY's Hardcore mode as a guideline? I've based myself on it and changed some things:

• Aiming is permanently set to free-aim.
• Maximum health is reduced by half.
• No health regeneration.
• Protagonist's Special meter fills slower.
• Store items cost more.

And please, add that stuff to Single Player too.

[KeeNer187]

Sure why not.

But if we get this we better be getting a no cops option as well.

[Deatheffekt]

- Auto-aim off.

- Cops/NPC's less accurate with cops accuracy increasing in star rank,

- No Mini map Or Blips only show if firing a non suppressed weapon/Seen firing.

- Realistic car damage eg, being unable to drive if the wheels bent.

 

I'm sure there's more stuff.

 

Edit---->

 

- Gun Stash, to enable carrying only certain weapons.

Personally I'd love a hardcore mode this is what I'd tweak though

- keep npc aim the same they are easy enough to kill, police officers are trained to have good aim

-do car wrecks like sp

-spend time in jail if police detain you- lose ammo and pocket change you could try breaking out or just relax and enjoy activities like arm wrestling or tv until a short amount of time has passed

-if you die: stare at your lifeless body until the ambulance takes you to the hospital, where you could choose to pay the bill (idk 2,500 or 5,000 if you died by a headshot) or run away with a wanted level

-just saying id love the extra amount of strategy that only carrying two guns brings there should be limits so it's not a RPG and Minigun

-blips off!

[shamalpilot]

cars require fuel

hunger thirst

if you die you lose that character (like diablo)

[AceThaCreator]

Lets just make car wrecks more realistic were if your going 100+ mph & you collide head on with another vehicle, your ass goes flying 300ft onto the pavement making it an instant death along with your car stalling or being totaled as a result.

I don't think it would work in freeroam, and having a hardcore free roam lobby kind of implies that free roam is just for killing. The car wreck death thing would also get old quick and I could just see these HC lobbies being deserted.

I would be in favour of a hardcore deathmatch mode though. No hud, limited ammo, low health etc.
