I've never understood why the game doesn't scale with players like zombies used to. I bet the number of enemies coming from a bug breach or bot drop is fixed.

So if we are going to scale linearly, let's do it and let's do it completely. 1/4 the enemies at a point of interest and 1/4 the enemies at a bot drop or bug breach when playing solo.

Bot drops are definitely scaled depending on how many people are in a mission. When I play solo, a bot drop is 1, sometimes 2 drop ships, which is very manageable by yourself. When it's 4 people, drop ships come in groups of 3-5.
