After Beating easy does it automatically go to normal?

[Ultra MAGA Marine]

Just beat it on easy, and noticed that it started over with game+. Am I playing normal now or do I need to start a new campaign all together?

You are playing Normal now. You can see the current difficulty if you click your federal hero license (first ship upgrade listed, or the only one if you're about to play a level with a special ship). Beating the game automatically takes you back to the beginning and increases the difficulty level. There's more after Hard (the highest you can select when you start a new game), so keep playing.

After completing the game you play automaticaly from the beginning, but with higher difficulty. Continue playing - do not start new game! After Easy there will be Normal, but this is not same dificulty as when you start directly on Normal. It is harder but you have more powerful weapons from previous round.

You can always check your difficulty level on your "hero license" (green fist icon under special devices).

so, what difficulty level will be after hard? Something like "Put out this sraphnel from my ass, and take me back to mommy"? =)

No. It's called Nightmare.

[JeppyTheSlime]

and after nightmare it's "Total Mayhem". Haven't been any further yet.

So it just keeps resetting and increasing the difficulty? I didn't notice any change because of how fast I was killing them in the first level.

There are these difficulty levels (SPOILER!):

• Too Fat To Die
  
• Normal
  
• Hard
  
• Nightmare

• Terminator

wow I didn't know that. What is exactly the difference between normal and newgame+ normal? Also is it the same for hard mode if you started the game on normal?

I don't know all the differences, but generally there are more enemies, and there are new different enemies in each mission. You might even encounter boss-class ships flying along normal ones in the middle of a mission like it's nothing :) Also, the more times you beat the game, the more information you collect about its various secrets (given at the very end).

I can't imagine doing the beercube or alien missions on anything above nightmare, those are so hard. Are there any set numbers on how the damage and health of enemies scale through difficulty levels, what difficulty levels introduce more enemies?
