How To Turn On Hardcore Mode On Your Call of Duty 4 Server

Hardcore mode lowers player health so most weapons kill in one or two shots, and hides most of the HUD, including the minimap.

Turning On Hardcore Mode

  1. 1
    Log in to Bropanel and select your server.
  2. 2
    In the sidebar, go to Settings.
  3. 3
    Under Gameplay, turn Hardcore on.
  4. 4
    Click Save & Restart to apply your changes.

Turn Hardcore off and click Save & Restart to go back to normal mode.

Note

Promod has its own hardcore ruleset. If your server runs Promod, set Promod Mode to Public Hardcore instead.
