So therefore I have some questions regarding PCW's etc.

I've noticed that you almost kill everything with one shot in hardcore mode and you do not have a minimap, which will make it hard to coordinate if you split up your team. Are PCWs played in hardcore mode or is it played in normal mode?

On a great deal of public servers, grenade launcher, martyrdom and last stand has been forbidden, is it the same when it comes to PCWs?

I play sniper and enjoy playing sniper in most FPS games where it's available, but in hardmode it just seems ridiculous to even try because the beauty of the weapon is its power. Though everything in hardmode seems to kill you with one shot.

Off topic, does anyone know any good public servers?
