Rant On Fungus Mega Brutal Difficulty
Hey so im here to talk about why the fungus mega brutal difficulty needs to be nerfed. Recently i have been trying to beat fungus on mega brutal but it was just nto working out. I even tried out guides on the community and forum and i could still nto beat it. As of now im on my 5th attempt trying to beat it. If someone has a good method for beating it on mega brutal please post it down. And ndemic devs please read this and nerf the difficulty on fungus in mega brutal.

Mega Brutal is just difficult, there isn't of problem...
If 5 try is too much for you, then stop play, sometimes I fail 10 or 20 games.

To me, the only plague that's more random then fungus is necora. I could beat fungus on my first or second try if things went wrong on mega brutal. On necroa, it would take me two tries at least because of how much the zombies decay. I managed five biohazards on all plagues on mega brutal execpt for bio-weapon and this, fungus. When i play fungus, i focus on spreading and killing early becuase the cure would increase in a short amount of time in fungus.

Also, patho-stasis is super useful for fungus. Trans-stasis, and sympto-stasis are a waste on fungus because the biggest issue with fungus is it spread slow to islands. Going for about 6 spores and the first spore busrt early is ok. Don't try to go for all of them or you would have a hard time with the islands. Going for the rest of the spores after you start killing is a good idea becuase you are no only infecting the uninfected countries, you are also getting plenty of dna from red bubbles because of the severity. If you are good at playing prion or bacteria very aggressively, then fungi's difficulty shouldn't be too high on mega brutal.

Really? Necroa Virus is so easy for me i love that plague but yes i got patho stasis on and genetic hardening and i still can't do anything the world always cures me out. And i tried what you mentioned with fungus like saving the spores and stuff but its just no use i can't get pass it.

Easy ? This game has random infections, isn't easy...
If the Mega Brutal / Complete Achievement guides havne't worked for you, your game is bugged. This is a bug report.

It kinda is tough but at the same time i can usually come through but fungus is different. I dunno i just can't beat it.

I don't think this is a bug i have seen loads of other people been stuck on this plague on mega brutal.
Then loads of peoples' games are bugged - or cannot follow the guides properly. The 5 biohazards guides shoot way over what is necessary for a mere victory - to 'fail' is not even within the scope of possibility, unless tampering is involved (bugs, not following instructions properly).

Hmmm nope doesn't seem like it to me i looked on one of the most popular guides and 300 people said it didnt work while 70 said it woked. 300-70 looks like a pretty good ratio to me.

On this guide? If so, I'd like to see the source of your cited statistic.

And what is this - no 'Guaranteed Win & Perfect Score' guide? How troubling. I won't make one because I know not enough people will care for it to be worth my time - but is sure as hell can be done.

I tried that one no luck and the one i looked at was by yo spicy.
Fungus is the most RNG (Random Number Generator) reliant plague out there - how many times have you tried this guide? Have you followed the instructions properly each time? I say if you had five proper runs and failed all five - your game's bugged. Period.

Ok i'll try it again (6th attempt) and ill talk to devs too.
Yes, at this point the devs are your best bet - they are on a vacation right now, so it'll take a little while. I actually haven't tried the guide - never had to for anything - but reading over it, it surely appears viable. Besides, I doubt it'd have a 5-star rating from 270+ ratings if it didn't work in under five tries.
