The difficulty scaling is pretty frustrating

[Samuraiworld]

So I'm level 11, and I'm playing on world tier 6, but my god. Some of the gun fights take (what feels like) a good ten minutes to finish because it's YOU (an individual) versus like 100 enemies if not more and sometimes it feels like there are 20-30 people shooting at you. Cover seems useless because no matter where I hide there are enemies surrounding me. I feel like the game should recognize if you're playing solo or with people and adjust accordingly. It's like the game thinks I have two other people playing with me and I don't. Maybe I shouldn't be playing on world tier 6 at level 11, but I'm trying to play on harder difficulties to get better gear. Sure, the game will let you equip higher level gear, but it doesn't feel like it helps when you have you have to fight what seems like 30-40 enemies at one time and than 20 more take their place.

The game basically has FIFTEEN difficulties and I'd hate to see what the highest ones look like, I was already frustrated by world tier 4 and 5, and 6 is even worse. It's almost like the developers are somehow FORCING you to co-op if you want to take on higher world tiers, bu that kind of sucks for solo players. I don't really like co-oping, so I feel like, as I said, that the game should somehow recognize or scale to a SOLO player experience, like it can still be tough but don't make me fight 30-40 enemies at once when I'm buy myself and can't even take cover without getting shot at from all angles and directions.

it is a system like in diablo 3, on your first run you stay on a normal difficulty, then when you are well stuffed and you devellopped your character you can put the difficulty higher and farm loot in endgame
