Enhanced Difficulty Options
Players can now fine-tune their difficulty levels by telling the game exactly how they want to be treated. They can choose to be regarded as a specific size team (even if they are soloing), and even have control over the level they are detected to be when it comes to the dynamic spawn system. So if you ever wanted to see if your Scrapper could take on a map that is populated for an 8 person team, four levels higher than your own, now you can! The difficulty settings of the mission owner dictate how the mission is handled, just as before, and you can change your difficulty settings at any Hero Corps Field Analyst in Paragon City or |Fateweaver in the Rogue Isles.
Issue 16 vs. Going Rogue
Due to all the spectulation and confusion with Issue 16 and Going Rogue, Lead Designer Positron posted to set the record straight:
- Issue 16 is NOT Going Rogue.
