Difference between normal league and hardcore.
What is a real difference? Any drop chances or xp or whatever istead of just PERMADEATH which is actually not so perma. I mean if this league hardcoreness is just in moving your character to normal server(sorry. I just hate this "League" term because it is a SERVER as a fact.) - this is not a hardcore in any way, and also is there a point to play on hardcore server without special rewards. So please tell me what are rewards and what is hard in hardcore. Thanks for attention.

But your char gets useless once he reached default for me. So if he dies he gets deleted to not take up space :)

Game mechanics are exactly the same in hardcore and default - the only difference is that if your character dies in hardcore, they're no longer in hardcore (and thus all their items go with them).
This results in fewer high-level hardcore characters, less powerful gear, and more cautious players. I have wandered through insanity;
I have walked the spiral out. Heard its twisted dreamed inanity In a whisper, in a shout. In the babbling cacophony The refrains are all the same: "[permutations of humanity] are unworthy of the name!" |

Two main demographics:
1. Tryhards. These guys like to be able to beat a game on only one life, for no particular reason other than to have beaten it on one life. These are the majority. 2. Economists. These guys appreciate a more stable economy. This is a result of deaths removing players, and all their gear, from the league whenever they die. This helps curb inflation of the in-game economy. These are a minority, but they are both scholars and gentlemen. When Stephen Colbert was killed by HYDRA's Project Insight in 2014, the comedy world lost a hero. Since his life model decoy isn't up to the task, please do not mistake my performance as political discussion. I'm just doing what Steve would have wanted.

Oh. I see. So it's only up to your imagination and no special rewords. So boring. Why people have to be tense all the time for nothing. It like no real stimulus to play on HC server. If I die in HC - there have to be something to make me think "Oh. I died T_T now i will not get that special HC only GIANT SWORD OF DESTRUCTION "(or whatever in this way) , instead of "Ah. I died. OK. I'l play on normal server. Anyway no difference."

"There is a tangible reward. Your Chaos Orbs are worth more in trade. I already explained why. When Stephen Colbert was killed by HYDRA's Project Insight in 2014, the comedy world lost a hero.

Yeah pretty much any currency on hardcore can be exchanged at a minimum 1:2 ratio for softcore currencies. That means any currencies on HC are double the value or more if you were to exchange/trade them to SC.

I dont understand what do you mean. Trade between leagues? Is it possible. Or you mean trade for real bucks, or you get iteam and sell it twise bigger currency. Does it mean you have 2 "credits" on softcore and you can buy something for 2 credits from softcore players while if you HC and have 4 "credits" you buy same thing for 4 "credits" from another HC player?
