Is the game too easy?

Not to me but I'm still a noob

I can easily solo wave or two with certain kits. haha

I wouldn`t dare try to solo the whole game though. It would be agonizing for me...

Is it easier than ME3? Oh, fuck yes. Is it so easy as to not be fun? Certainly not to me.

MEAMP clearly is made to be easier and more casual compare to ME3MP.

ME3MP play was fun but each game felt like a commitment. 

MEAMP game feels more like quick arcade round where I can casually join in and out.


I think for this aspect, MEAMP is a success.

Not a successor... but a success.. lol

A lot of what passes for difficulty really just creates player frustration imho.

I refer primarily to the constant stream of staggers.  Invisible enemies that can suddenly start firing at you from anywhere, often in multiples.  The krogan twins with their flak cannon spam who can keep you stunlocked, and multiple enemies that will damage and stagger you through cover.  Longer power cooldowns combine with frequent staggers so that you can have an enemy nicely primed, but be unable to fire the detonator because some goddamned invisible dog interrupted you and the prime time expired.  The instantaneous firing and pinpoint accuracy that all enemies seem to have.  The designers were so intent on making sure the player is constantly on their heels, that enemies firing at your back as you're trying to sprint away even slow you down.

I went through a period of playing this game quite a lot, but the frustration is building to the point where I don't know how much longer I'll be doing so.

The game has changed quite a bit with patches.

Enemies had to be buffed just as much as our stuffs got buffed. lol

The game still feels pretty nice because learning and understanding game mechanic can help you make things easier.


For other comments.. I guess some people do find this game too easy.

I will be honest... and say I do feel this game quite easy if I use certain classes.
Even so.. there are still unexpected hiccups in certain objectives though.

That ABC upload for example... is always exciting to see it appear... lol ... and scary...

Too easy? Pffft, if anything, it´s too hard. I still bleed out on wave 1. On dirt difficulty nonetheless. #biovarplsnerfmea

yes. i dont play with regulars.

a lot of people dont use their amps. so that may explain why they struggle.

they should just make a harder game mode. moar credits pls

It does seem a lot easier than ME3 now, but then again I'm not entirely sure that MEA is indeed a lot easier. It might just be that 1000 hours of ME3-MP have made me a half decent 3rd-person shooter player after all and my learning curve is slightly steeper with MEA than it was with ME3.

I'd rather they increased difficulty by actually making enemies harder to kill instead of essentially making the player sit in timeout during a stagger or dog-grab.  (A frequently deadly timeout, as it happens, since you're often staggered / slowed while trying to escape.)

For want of a better word, I'm going to say that I find it dis-empowering.  Maybe it's just because I suck, but I find that I spend far too much time unable to act (or interrupted from what I wanted to do) because I'm staggered or grabbed.  Asking the player to do something difficult is a welcome challenge; preventing them from doing anything at all is not, thus my current frustration.
