I read that health is only dropped to 60 in BF HC, and the guns are even weaker than the guns in CoD... strange! Is the complex body multipliers? Or is it the CoD version. Shot in the arm hurts like a shot in the heart? I think it would be cool to ...not ever play CoD again.

Don't use CoD's HC for comparison. Vehicles would absolutely annihilate if players had 30 hp like CoD. I believe damage multipliers are the same.

hardcore's kind of a different thing. the health drop is big but not completely game-changing like in cod. but cod is small, set levels. the giant, changing BF levels mean keeping track of everything with no HUD to help is not easy. playing as a decent squad requires much chatting for anything other than extremely basic actions

One thing i like about HC is; Magnum ammo + any Bolt action rifle= 1HK anywhere

and fortunately no longer true, with body armor. this whole setup was the reason hc was completely broken and wannabe-sniper-infested. now a lot of hc servers limit the number of recons to 2 per team. kind of a shame it had to come to that, but it's the only way to prevent 50% of the attacker team sitting somewhere in the woods farming kills and padding their petty k/d instead of playing the objective.

I exclusively play HC and have only seen 2-3 servers ever that limit Bolt Action Rifle use and even then the max has always been 4. @op, What separates BC2 HC from CoD HC is HP regen. Even in CoD you can barely escape after taking damage and heal up. In BC2 you do not heal up until you find a medic kit or are killed then revived or respawn. The lack of HP regen is the reason I exclusively play HC.

on consoles we just get official servers or w/e, all totally homogenous, no limits on stuff.

Couldnt the game devs simply have modified bolt sniper rifle damage so as to keep it at 2 body shots or 1 headshot = kill? Someone explain to me how this would be hard..

well, that's how it is. however, the nature of magnum ammo (increasing the damage by 25%) allows you to break the hc mechanics and have one hit kill snipers, unless the target has body armor on. hc mode is more of a bonus, not much thought and balancing is invested in it, unfortunately. this further results in many wannabe-snipers of questionable talent to play in hc, therefore flooding the servers with recons..
