I dedicated my middle-high school life to this game mode and I honestly regret nothing. It was fun, made a lot of memories and thinking back on all the childish drama, it still remains kind of funny. Thank you for this video.
Incredible video. I remember watching HCF first in 2015. It's such a shame what happened post 2016. I feel like the fall was inevitable though, as the version of the game was so old that the newer players were playing on version that offered more and was not compatible with 1.7 servers.
I wish I could go back to the HCF days before the rampant toxicity and closet cheaters and enjoy them a bit more. Some of the best times I've had in gaming
3 years since this video was made and i still think about hcf, i was young, probably younger than a lot of players but it was one of my worst and best times of my life. I still miss it.
such a well put together video. ngl this made me feel pretty nostalgic reminiscing about all the friends I made and factions I played with. I'd love to see a video about the history of practice servers and prac pvp.
7:12 This is what i love hearing, people not changing stuff when its not needed. People always wanna be original for no reason and it ends with them ruining it unintentionally, i mean how do you think partner items ended up ruining the game? essentially it started when viper felt the need to be original from different servers, their lust for originality ended up completely killing hcf as a whole
sorry, new spawn tag system, allies, DTC, conquest, Nightmare event, CBF, you are also wrong about partner items, if they were blanced right and not used as a way to make more money they would actually bring an amazing new dynamic to how fights work, they are jsut poorly implemented in order to sell and make servers money
@@8157-u1b nah hcf is dead but uhc is most definitely not. hoplite just came out this shi is more fun than hcf has been in 6 years even with the horrible pvp
great video, wish og hcf would come back again. i get so much nostalgia watching kohi/hcteams clips lmao. i doubt it'll ever happen though since og player base is gone and the new players wont even give it a chance
Although it became one of the most toxic forms of gaming, it's also one of the best times in gaming for me personally. I would nolife that shit with my buddies I met on the server. Raiding a rival faction after their DTR dropped to 0 was so satisfying because of the amount of shit talking factions would do to each other. Great video, this brought back a lot of memories. Btw I was staff on VeltPvP and can confirm the entire staff team was corrupt all the way up to the owner, who was known for ddosing and swatting.
me and my friends played og woodycraft/daegonner/gontroller and have been saying we need a video like this to capture factions history as well. great vids man
As someone who played hcfactions on 1.12, it was one of the most fun and nostalgic experience I ever had playing this game. Many old players returned for it and it played really well. I just wish more people played it man :/
It isnt, he got so so so many things wrong that the script was making me cringe almost ever 30 seconds, i will be making my own one as this video really does not do 2012-2016 any justice at all
@@Crytexic might be released sometimes in the spring or summer, u see, i know a lot of people who played early HCFactions and i also played it in late 2014 onward. this kid has bef never played it in his life
i really wish i had a good pc back when minehq and kohi was out, i could only ever play cubecore and kitmap because i never got more than 30fps. didnt get a playable pc until 2018 and by the time i did, it was too late 💔
most ppl saying hcf died after 2016 probably didnt play it. Hcf died after lunar shut down factions, there was still definitely a player base at that time.
OG HCF, and the "New" version of HCF can never make a return in its players. It's just because people simply get bored of it and do not have fun, that's all. The new age of MC (basically just Hypixel, and Practice) will most likely continue to reign supreme.
Wish we could go back to Shotbow. Once MineHQ failed with Cheatbreaker and Arcane came along it was doomed. Yes, viper introducing partner items ruined it even more, but the start of the downfall was with Arcane. Yes it brought EVERYONE together with 5k on release, because it had every HCF youtuber on and was the most hyped HCF server ever at that point, but it was P2W, not hardcore, and stale shortly after.
considering ik multiple people who killed themselves over this gamemode after constant harrassment and bullying aswell as many more who got swatted and even killed idk wtf ur talking about. This gamemode also has the most amount of pedos and a huge % of cybercriminals come from Minecraft/HCF
@@ironic. HCF is toxic but its not the most toxic no one has killed themselves you made that up lmao no one loses anything over this game the map resets every week. The Hypixel Pit has actual items of value worth upwards of 5k per item. Ratting, Swatting, Bullying & Scamming are super relevant in the pit and there have been scams of upwards of $50,000. The game is a million times more toxic this game is tame compared to it Ive played both and played a very big role within the pit community.
@@ArmorUpOfficial this is hilarious and you have no idea what ur talking about look it up maybe. Whatever the fuck ur talking about isnt even HCF and 50.000$ is a drop in the pool…
@@ArmorUpOfficial i spoke to Major. He’s a well known pit player who is not delusional like you LOL. Just because you were a part of something toxic does not make you guys anything close to what HCF was at its peak. Pit is def rly toxic but it’s less toxic than League in some places
@@ArmorUpOfficial Tell that to all the MC Hackers that stole millions off BTC exchanges. Simmed for millions, went to people’s houses and took pics with guns aiming at ppls windows. U have no info and u know nothing.
I barely got to experience old kohi before it shut down but you can tell how much worse the servers got over time with pay to win and other antifeatures. People liked to shit on these older servers but little did they know the new servers would destroy the game mode basically forever.
the only thing I'm disagreeing with you about this video is talking about how old 1.7 is and comparing it to the newer versions. There is a reason why most servers keep 1.7-1.8 because those versions are actually good. I think most people in the community would agree, that even if 1.9 didn't even change the pvp style, that they would stay on 1.7-1.8 because its a more enjoyable and compatible experience. (also the fps is actually good on those versions)
one of the most fun gamemodes ruined by a horrible community that is arguably more toxic than Twitter. The new meta now is objectively shit and doesn't even deserve the hardcore in it's name.

they were a great idea however they were executed poorly.

nothing will compare to the old kohi and hcteams days

tbh since arcane happened it all went to shit, i still played alot after but it was just a waste of time looking back now. Kohi was very fun tho
