Would anybody like to see a "Hardcore" mode? - Rust

So recently my friends and I have realized that we are in the position to create a server that would be "Hardcore" soon. What Hardcore means is that if somebody dies they will be booted from the server for a set period of time, they can not rejoin until their deathtimer is up. It would make dying a much bigger deal and I think people would be much much more careful with who they trust and what they do. It would totally change Rust's gameplay. I remember seeing a post on here about something similar.. But I want to know how interested people are in this idea... Some questions for you guys.. 1. Would you play hardcore mode? 2. How long would a reasonable timer be? 5 minutes? 10 minutes? An hour? A day? 3. Would you consider making a server like this full time? Or just for fun? Thanks!

Hacking would destroy this game mode...

[QUOTE=AR15;43694393]Hacking would destroy this game mode...[/QUOTE] Yes it would, but hacking destroys any gamemode IMO. But..... We have no life and will constantly admin the server.

2mins would be long enough, but add included consequences like: - lose a percentage of your research (possibly even all of it). - lose the keys to your house (pass code change) - killer possibly loot "key" from body to raid house - make death timer longer a depending on how long you have been alive for and/or how much research you have (so more advanced players have more to lose than younger spawns). Also need dynamic safe spawn points or iminuty time when you 1st re-join. I realise this wood make beds redundant if you lost your door access. Possibly have a bed or sleeping bag would reduce your death timer. But possibly only has a set amount of uses before you lose your bed. Also suicide would need to be disabled.

Decreased Maximum Calories: 3000 => 2000 2.) Increase in bleeding damage 3.) Bandages have a 50% of working Small medkits 75% Large Medkits 100% 4.) Resource Scarcity (less lumber and stones) 5.) Increase in required resources for items 6.) Agrizoophobia: ALL animals will chase you down and kill you and previously aggressive animals have a 25-50% larger detection range.

Suicide can just count as a death. So you can still do it, but you would just be wrecking yourself.

[QUOTE=Little Tid;43694853]Suicide can just count as a death. So you can still do it, but you would just be wrecking yourself.[/QUOTE] True. Also probably necessary if your get stuck somewhere (alpha).

Yeah make this game more like War Z so it can die. None of these "hardcore" features are really "hardcore". Want hardcore? Try perma-death. 24 hour lockout. I mean whats this thing that this community keeps clouting? Oh yes, thats right its a herpderp survival game huehuehue. In the end this feature is nothing more than a redundant feature and honestly a colossal waste of time.

Not even 24 hour but banned till next wipe - thats hardcore - whoever left on the server wins.

Yes I will play 1-2 hours at day.
