Yeah hard mode scales the level to whomever is highest in your group and increases enemy numbers based on the number of people in your group

We did the shopping mall mission last night and it was a nightmare with 2 under levelled players and all the elite cleaners running around! haha
 
Ive hit 17 and kinda hit a bit of a wall, some of the side quests are ridiculously hard it seems, i had one to kill some Simon Belmont dude or something, his 2 lieutenants are easy enough, but the guy himself, wow, i emptied all my ammo into him and he was barely scratched! And if you happen to get in his line of fire its pretty much game over instantly lol.

Think i need to rethink my build somewhat for that mission.

Any Xboners fancy teaming up and running some of the earlier missions on Hard? :)
 
Ventured back into the DZ last night on solo and got a few items (i'm lvl 15) and went to the extraction where two level 10's in a fireteam were stood about. They put down their sentry guns and just pointed their rifles at me so I knew what was coming. I started loading up my kit on to the chopper and the first one unloaded a clip into me, the second followed, I used my special insta-heal, unloaded half a mag into each, stole their loot, loaded it on to the chopper, went back and butt stroked them both and went on my merry way, even my missus was laughing at them. Even got a PS4 achievement for Justice. Love the DZ.
 
Glad to hear some of the missions get harder later on :).

Think my 3 man group will explore the DZ this weekend. :D
 
Do all the missions scale with your lvl if you re-run them on hard?.

Yes, all the ones I've tried have been scaled up to your current level, which is great as it will always give a challenge and you’re not stream rolling over the mission, also good that the number of enemies is scaled to how many are in your party. Seems like there has been a great deal of thought has gone into by the developer this which is great, as its always a challenge when replaying. Must try tonight to see what happens when the group leader is a lower level than other in the party what level it will spawn the enemies at.

Also interesting to see that you can take much lower level ppls through the main missions, and the game doesn’t limit you to content at your level, so can try the higher level missions if you really want to. Was great fun last night rerunning the 18-22 missions with Davie/Dredd & Razor, a few sticky moments but we got there in the end, and sure Dredd was going to have a heart attack with his blue drops at every stage :p
 
Don't know if it's the amount of enemies or just increased HP. Although I definitely have no more than 6 at any time and it's usually a mix of 4 purple shielded and 2 yellow shielded.

I have run the Hospital mission twice on hard, once as a group (under levelled like a boss!) and once solo (at level 7). In a group there were a lot more enemies in each encounter. Solo it was pretty easy TBH (at level of course) but in a group it really ramps up the challenge.

I don't know about individual enemy HP as I wasn't running a like for like but I wouldn't be surprised if they also had more health (or at least the Elites do).

EDIT: I really have some catching up to do level wise! Saying that I am deliberately taking it slow to prevent burn out (hello Destiny calling..) / waiting for the Mrs to catch up on her character.

I'm guessing the people at level 30 must be playing in groups and therefore have more enemies to kill therefore earning more XP? I've played a lot and am only on level 18.

It's moments like that make this game.

I'd have started doing jumping jacks at them and surrendering. :o
 
Just been into the dz myself for the first time lol got some nice bits and bobs lvl 8 dz now.

The Npcs are a lot harder than beta lol

Twice now I've ganked 3 players as they were about to extract their gear. Full blues; I swiped it and extracted it all for myself. I bet they were raging :D

High level DZ will be amazing. Imagine teams of 4 coming up against each other? All healing, laying turrets, support packs, mines etc. Kill times will be much higher, so you're gonna have co-ordinate well to bash people. Especially as the top DZ is 30 only.

This is exactly what I'm looking forward too mate gonna be some good fun when its 4vs4 and everyone has their build/gears sorted and all the nades and tech is fly. Last I saw you and Tom where already lv20, still lv11 cause work has been mad haha.
