Hardcore is great. If I were you, I'd definitely consider playing more Hardcore, or switching over entirely. Give it a chance. If you're pretty good, you'll seriously rack up kills. It's a lot less cluttered with spam grenades and poor tactics like that. It's a lot more tactical and overall more fun. Just a suggestion, but it's a great mode to play on. I actually didn't know what you guys were talking about the MP40s, but then I played a regular TDM and I sort of saw it. On Hardcore, it's mainly the STG rifle. Good rate of fire, accurate, reliable, and very powerful on Hardcore. I usually attach double tap to my rifle class with this gun just because. Bullet penetration is easy with this gun too, especially with double tap. +STG has telepocic sight i mainly jsut use whatever wep i have not done challanges for yet edit: ok that was jsut stupid... joined 3 games strait, all of them lost like 200-500 to 750, came in with like 30 sec left or 3 kills away from score limit then we lose and game lobby closes.. join new game and happens again.. -.- they really need to make it so you don't join games like 200 pts behind or with like 2 min left..
