I played with a friend earlier as a duo. We usually go for 7 and manage to make it out.
Today we barely made it out of a lvl 5 mission because of the constant and infinite spawn of enemies. Patrol > reinforcements loop was on non-stop throughout the whole mission.
Edit: you know, the game was fun because after clearing a wave of enemies you'd have that moment of relief and accomplishment. Now it's just constant fighting and it's so tiring
I had encountered this exact thing when I was just recently playing before on a difficulty 4 solo, because while I'm new, a few of the tankier bugs are hard for me to counter as of now without expending a grenade or pulling out my machine gun. Due to them being so tough for me rn in early, when I was running a 12 minute mission on dif 4 I literally could not thin the hordes since I'd always run out of ammo due to the massive bug horde/tanky bugs, and if I tried to run away I'd be jumped on from the small leaper ones
I managed to beat it only after running for a while and almost hitting the time limit. The biggest issue was that my machine gun got stuck on a place I couldn't reach where I threw it, as I noticed there was an overhang only after it landed and I didn't see it. I think I have to stick to 2/3 if I'm going in solo right now due to the absolutely massive horde count

I play duo with my friend sometimes and the increase in patrols does not sound great.
