    SURVIVAL - HARD CORE Mode

    Have you Tried HARD CORE (PVE) SURVIVAL?

    What is HARD CORE (PVE) SURVIVAL?

    1) Nothing above superior (purples). No using anything that is above Superior level gear or weapons or even mods.
    2) No crafting of Weapons or gear. You can only use that which you find/loot. You can craft anything not in the Weapons or Gear category which includes mods (gear & weapons) , skills and anything in the first category that includes Mask, extended mask, extra med kit , ect
    3) No use of meds. Medkits yes but no pills or Shots that pause the timer
    4) 30 min or less. Your goal is to get out by the 30 Min mark or as close to that as possible
    5) Once you've killed the hunter you must exit the extraction area and not re-enter until you hear the pilot say "Landing Now"

    This is a completely vountary mode (its not an option to select when playing survival) so its up to you to be honest/true to the challenge but if regular SURVIVAL is too easy this is a way to take it to the next level. If you try SURVIVAL under these restrictions you WILL find it thrilling

    I always suggest self-imposed limitations for those that say *whatever game* is too easy.

    Only one I've personally done is handgun only for survival run. I don't like to rush. In fact, I like to aim for the other extreme. I like empty sessions where I am the only one in it. That happens occasionally. Personally, that is what I envision when I think of survival; You, or you and your team against the world. I try to clear at least 8 landmarks in the DZ and extract at about 2:05. I get a certain satisfaction boarding the helicopter and heading out as the sun is shining bright on a new day.
    I go in streaks with Survival. I'll play it a lot for a few months, then not again for a few more.
