Anything gained by going up in difficulty?

[RichRuzz]

Couldn't find the info anywhere but does it boost drops, rarity, money or anything or just HP/damage modifiers and such for enemies?

Trying to decide to play on Hard or the top one.

Yes. The harder, the looter.

to put it that way :

I played the early access on normal, and at some point it just was like you were literally invincibe ... no fun at all.

Cant say that I have started playing 1.0 (yet) , but definately will try "hard" when the time comes as I personally like challenge ...

[Yes Indeed!]

Nope, nothin' but hair on your chest and bragging rights.

Yeah, I like a mix between wanting to go out get upgrades/challenge/etc instead of being too easy so probably gonna start on Hard if so and doesn't offer bonuses. (max difficulty if it effects drops)

Yes. Pain.

Started on hard will move up to very hard as I get equipped a bit more.

Started on very hard. Took two hours to beat the first stage. When it said very hard, it meant it haha. I'm getting the hang of it though, utilizing debris in the fights etc, rather than going balls to the wall like I did in the demo.

It's provided as a challenge and therefore is it's own reward.

[Veritas]

Play how you like, there are no achievements or the like tied to difficulty and you're allowed to change it if you find it too easy or hard. Personally I'm having to use Very Hard because it's way too easy otherwise after all the Hardcore runs I did in the original

Some of the side missions have timers and from what I've experienced these timers are shorter on higher difficulties. Like when you have the expiration timer on one of these power nodes and you have to deliver them to their socket in time.

play on hard now, my ass get kick here and there even with same lvl enemy. If theres zone that +1 lvl, im just dead XD
Gotta reload the other check point and do another lower quest first.
Get first bomber ship, still get ass kicked.

If true, I very much like that content is not difficulty gated
