Difficulty level - VERY HARD MODE

[wbonxx]

In my opinion there should be one more difficulty level for veterans and large coop groups.

This would add longevity to a game that by default at hard level is way too easy!

Am I the only one that thinks the game is too easy? In coop at hard survival we finished it without any struggle

I noticed that hard survival seems to have a lot less cannys running around but the ones you run into are hard to kill. Also in hard survivial - the mutants can one shot and break a very fortified wall like its paper. But also they seem to be rare. Using the orb artifact does bring in the troops and things get out of hand fast in hard survival. I don't know how much harder they can make the game or you been lucky so far with your experiences. Maybe a lot less easy food so you have to trap animals and a lot more weather and a lot more fall damage...etc.

I think would be nice to introduce the possibility to play at an harder level, harder then hard survival. So yes with less food, slower wood harvesting, enemies that do double the actual damage forcing players to play in stealth mode

No thanks

I agree. Game is way too easy. Besides cannibals being very tanky on Hard Survival, I feel that it should've been the default difficulty. Definitely need a harder mode or custom options.

Agree. And anyway would hurt to have one more option to play, people that prefer the standard difficulty could still play it.

I would love to have a more realistic mode, where building an house takes time, where hiding from monsters would be necessary to survive and being outnumber would mean run or die.

Same for the food, should be much more scarse and farming difficult.

Right now playing coop is a joke.

Yeah default / normal is fine for casual players and some even find that hard, so thats ok. A custom level is what is needed or instead of raised stats for Hard though, it needs something else, im not sure what u could do precisely. Maybe more in the groups, so 4-8 groups (instead of 1-4) and multiple of those groups and raids on the base (day+night) and mutants track to ur base more (if they even do?), etc.

Right now maybe they dont do the custom kind of hardness because of memory restrictions? Thats why it needs to be Custom, then YOU or WE get to choose if we want to crash our PCs or not lol.

Like Dante said .... i think best way to address this issue would be through cust options ... id like that also

[wbonxx]

Why not an insane difficulty mode like in many other games? People may use it or not.

I think it is already wrong that the difficulty doens't scale up in coop, I heard a lot of people ruining the game because the went through with 4 players at hard mode, super smooth and all the content is spoiled.
