Only 11 people on the ENTIRE server has gotten 100+ points and only me and John (RIP Zed) are competing for the top. Here are the current standings:
If you don’t know what hardcore random is. When you activate it, it will make you spawn in with a completely random name, race and random bad traits. If you escape alive you gain points depending on how bad your random traits were. If you do this as antag and greentext you gain DOUBLE points for that round.
You can enable it here in the character menu:
Why though?
By having a random amount of bad traits you learn to become robust in a much bigger amount of scenarios than normal gameplay. You learn how to manipulate people to give you what you need (funny). And become more robust in general since you actually have a reason to live and will CERTAINLY try to live. Keep in mind dying will give you GREAT pain especially towards the end and if you do it in a stupid way.
Its fun, and brings challenge to the game if you find it lacking that. You will experience lots of new situations with so much variation in character, and be rewarded with points at the same time to have your name on the leaderboard like a champ. No, i don’t expect you to go to the top like an insane torture enjoyer like me, John and Zed (would be cool though).
So, go play hardcore random and have some fun/pain. (ESPECIALLY YOU RAYS).
Edit (this is funny):
