There's a lot of info regarding game modes in the forums, some old, some new. Not sure if BF docs are accurate now, perhaps someone can tell me. I'm interested in seeing a cross reference sheet/post that could identify what you can and cannot have in the following game modes.
Official Normal
Official Hardcore (too bad this isnt an option)
Ranked Normal
Ranked Hardcore
What changes can we make until we are kicked into custom, or no longer hardcore? Is it still too soon to answer this?
My question comes from my recent experimentation of my server. I've been running an Official server with the hardcore preset every 5 minutes. I get good queue traffic and have been full until a patch comes out. Players mention that the server isnt hardcore even though it says it is. So i tried setting it to Ranked, Hardcore...couldnt turn FF off...and the server sat empty for many hours. So i'm back at Official Normal. I'd really like to be hardcore though. any help is appreciated.

Re: Game Modes
The posted official game documentation is supposed to spell this out. It does to a certain degree. Our "Easy setup" page can be used to find the settings that our testing has determined are required, as well -- click the options to switch between Hardcore, Normal, and Infantry-only, and you'll see the form fields adjust.
