casuals are the ones who ask "what does casual vs hardcore mean"?
hardcore are the ones who take the time graph it all out.
20% time investment... 80% attititude = the casual gamer invests less time, so the casual gamer "cares" less about the individual wins and losses each team takes. the hardcore player is always assumed to be playing to win. so the casual gamer is always going to be perceived as less polished or adept, even though individually most casual gamers probably can carry their weight to a degree. hardcore players recognize they will do better in terms of enjoyment of the game and rewards in game by playing with likeminded players. casuals do not share this benefit, hence hardcore players will always carry the label of "cheater, stat padder, glitcher, zerg," etc. because of their ability to "manipulate" the stats thru teamwork. teamwork is not the same thing to all people. a group of morons flipping and repairing a damaged jeep for points is not a team. that's just a group of morons.
but the hardcore folks also carry the label "camper". when you go up to take an objective against a squad of 4 hc players, and they successfully continue to defend the objective you intend to take, and you can't, even as a group of 4 casual gamers who are using mics, you simply cannot move the hc players out of the area, then you call them campers. a successfully defended objective will always be perceived as a "camped" objective because the casual gamer is encountering facefirst the difference in time invested in the game between the 2 groups and the only perceived flaw in the game is how the casual views the hc players are playing it. camping IS defense.
a casual gamer on the top of a cliff with a sniper rifle is not helping you.
you won't see a hardcore gamer far away from anything, with or without a sniper rifle.
a casual gamer spawn camps because they have to, a hardcore gamer sets up an "alamo" because they can.
casual gamers tend to not like mics, most hc gamers are "mic mandatory".
casual gamers bunny hop at the first sign of incoming fire. hc players tend to walk toward their target.
casual gamers tend to use most of their bullets in the first burst. hc gamers tend to fire in bursts of 3.
casual gamers jump and drive off with support vehicles while they are in use.
casual gamers who see you arming a panel, don't cover you, they try to arm the panel or race off.
casual gamers spawn/stand near you and fire unsurpressed weapons, giving your position away.
casual gamers face the same direction when taking an objective/completing a task.
casual gamers run in a single line.
casual gamers don't know what you mean by "North".
stuff like that.
Peace

it's not about time played.
that has nothing to do with it.
i've met hardcore gamers who have more talent then thousands of casuals all ducttaped together.
and the casuals play more.
naw man, it aint about time or kd or any of that:
it's about team.
a hardcore player plays to win because the TEAM win is more important.
and that goes for every second of the match.
you will never hear a hardcore player, when asked to go arm a panel, exclaim
"that's not my job"
only a casual would pop up with that kinda attitude.
or even worse... the useless micless bastard. totally about self. screw your housemates. log off then and let a mic player get in.
sticking around with no mic = casual anchor. that slot coulda been used by someone with a mic. a hardcore player would know that. a casual gamer would make excuses "i have as much right... blah blahblah"
casual gamers are playing to have fun.
hardcore gamers are playing to win.
every time.
Peace

"because they are thrown into battle against the hardcore players"
well that's a first.
at least somebody finally admitted that hardcore players are better gamers then casuals.
and now you blame the game for that?
interesting.
