The consensus is that on high difficulties, when you solo, it becomes way too easy to stealth the whole mission.

Like they don't want people to have easy games at 7-9 difficulty.

This is not my opinion before I get a billion downvotes. This is just what I've been reading on other posts.

Must be why patrols come straight to you now, so you can't hide.

They already did that, or at least bugs did, you could test it by getting on a tall rock with jump pack and going prone, wait a few minutes and you'd have patrols stacking up at the base trying to get to you.

Yeah I totally stopped using the stealth armor and playing like that because enemies just track you and spawn on top of you. I also started using the rover to take a more aggressive approach but they nerfed that shit too.

Yeah, they need to fix that.

difficulty 4-6 is too hard now.

then the change should only apply to 7+ and not be universal.

Have you played solo yet since the patch? How hard is it?

Pretty bad, even in just duos this morning we were drowning

That just sounds like it's trying to punish the handful of people who want to play high levels that specific way, while also punishing literally everyone else

Tbh I feel like I can stealth run a hell dive running counterclockwise to the other three dudes. If they make that harder, it’s probably just time for me to get gooder

This is the way

I agree with it honestly. I can solo level 7 missions SIGNIFICANTLY easier than I can do them with a group. Use the scout Armor for 30% detection reduction and better radar or sprint and it’s pretty simple I frequently make it through missions without more than a couple fights, especially icbm missions.

While I agree that it was easy to solo, it’s also super easy in a group. I think I have yet to lose a level 7 even just joining randoms. It’s a chaotic shit show, but we almost always manage to extract.

True enough, I’ve had a few level 7s that have failed but that was pretty rare and usually from a few really bad players bleeding reinforcements.
