    I just wish they had something in the browser to state hc or standard-apart from the actual server name.

    If that is the case, then no one would use those guns.

    Yes because guns have absolute no other attributes other than damage, which of course in hardcore is always 1 or 2 shots according to you.

    I thought I explained it pretty well. It's just very basic probability. If I tell you to empty a clip at a target, it is more likely you will hit it once or twice than three or more times. Regardless, the first two hits have to land to get the third and on.
    To "attain" spray you just hold down the left mouse button. It can be done with any automatic gun. I find it odd that you think the shotgun is a gun that is more prone to spraying :confused:

    So according to your probability out of say 30 bullets one is more likely to hit an enemy 1 or 2 times? hmmm dunno about that, if you start spraying at somone at hit them once or twice, given the speed of the bullets, several more hits are pretty much assured. If i ask you to empty a clip at someone in either hardcore or standard the probable outcome for the target is death either way, but there are lots of factors, distance, cover, players aim etc. As I said in hardcore you have no crosshair to give you a general idea of where to spray at close range, and standard takes more bullets...

    But here like i said its really all opinion, so thats that imo. Hardcore is awesome, some people think the same of standard. ;) I play for fun, hardcore is great fun.

    Also it seems i was on the dot with it being 50:50 in popularity, it definately seems that way anyway, on public anyway hardcore even seems to have more severs, but its ridiculous for cod4 to have 2 game modes being played in leagues etc. standard is what clans and all should play since it is the standard mode, hardcore is a variant

    What gun doesn't kill in one/two shots in hardcore that anyone in their right mind would use? ie. a rifle or smg.

    I'll give it one more shot and if you don't get it then I'm afraid you're a lost cause.

    First off, speed of the bullets is irrelevant. Yes one is more likely to hit because the odds of an event happening 1/30 times are higher than it happening 2/30, 3/30 etc.

    Yes but they will more likely die faster in hardcore because they can take less hits. We are talking about spraying so the factors will only affect how many bullets land but since this is consistant to both modes it's irrelvant.

    The centre of the screen, there's your general idea. Yes standard does take more bullets, therefore it is harder to kill someone with spraying in standard.
