How do I play Nightmare difficulty?

[Zell0w]

How do I join a Nightmare difficulty match? I have a level 50 character and only get sent to Hard... The only time I saw Nightmare was in a private lobby.

Think it is primarily private lobbies or extremely rarely public lobbies with everyone having high level characters.

I do think they should have a queue for Nightmare difficulty - perhaps with the queue requiring a level 40 character or something.

I have a problem with this system in the free weekend of getting a match in the use of high level characters. Can’t imagine if the player count dies down it won’t grant a full 8 player lobby or higher as soon as you match make and takes way longer to get into one in general. I usually get into 4 player lobbies when it match makes randomly into those difficulties.

Especially if I just want to get in a bloody game in general, nightmare or not. (or hard lmao) I’d recommend the Devs to allow you to choose your difficulty and queue up that way than to be waiting randomized to pair with those with similar level for the atrocious waiting times. Like the first game essentially with two difficulty modes. Or just remove hard difficulty and merge it into classic with more tweaks either way.

If new players want to play public nightmare lobbies should get a disclaimer or lock them out until they get a classic game done or something I dunno.

It adjusts the difficulty when you queue according to your characters level. From what I've experienced. Classic is for 0-15. Hard is for 10-40 and nightmare is for 35-50. I think if aren't enough players to get a Nightmare lobby going, it expands its criteria eventually down to classic until you can get a lobby going.

I only want nightmare matchs i don't mind play with lv. 1 responder, crash killed my all lv. 50 i'm bored to play classic & hard.

chances are low to get nightmare so if you want to level up your nightmare rank you need to make private matches

its just random in public lobbies

You -really- should be able to select the difficulty.
