Hardcore mode was added 1st of december 2011. After the update, if you have over 100 Soul Points, you can choose to join a random town, or to join a 
Hardcore Town. Hardcore towns are much harder to survive in. Note that there is only ever 1 Hardcore town open for joining at a time, the next appears once the previous is filled.
Listed below are the differences between regular distant towns and a Hardcore town.
Damage to Defenses
- Defensive Objects in the
The Bank can be destroyed during 
The Attack. The rate of destruction appears to be directly coupled to attack size (not overflow sizes).
- At 23:00 server time (when The Attack occurs), the constructions in town can become damaged. The buildings are repaired through the Construction Sites tab in town by investing
s (or technician 
s).
Defensive constructions which have been damaged provide less defence points, similar to the 
Reactor on normal towns.
- If damaged buildings are not repaired, they can even be destroyed during the next wave of attack.
- Constructions which become completely destroyed need to be rebuilt, costing the same and materials as when first built.
- If a parent building is destroyed then it's children will continue to function; however they cannot be repaired until the parent is restored.
Town Setup
- The amount of prebuilt constructions are decreased significally.
- Initial water reserves are decreased.
Game mechanic changes
- The survival chances of Camping are significantly lowered.
- The Chances to die from
infection at 23:00 is increased from the usual 50% to 75%.
- The Chances to
injure someone with the 'assault' option increased.
- The amount of free
Hero days you get if you are the 
Last Man Standing is doubled. Note that there is a seperate Hardcore - LMS rare distinction which is gained as well as a regular LMS.
- External apps are limited in functionality due to the XML feeds being truncated in Hardcore towns. All auto-updaters are disabled or will not work correctly. Some applications may still allow manual zone updates (in example, From Dusk Till Dawn)
