    Its worth going back. The buffs have made almost all the weapons / strategems suitable for harder difficulties. Its still buggy (a game I played post patch had a missions-blocking fault), but worthwhile to experiment with new loadouts.

    Orbital napalm is fun 😁

      Yeah I’ve been getting back in but the amount of crashes are a joke still. It’s like every operation there is at least one mission I’ll crash. Yesterday had the luck after almost 40 minutes in a level 10 bot mission where we finally made it to the extraction after running out of reinforcements and collecting many samples it crashed right when the ship was called in.

      Also the missions feel wildly inconsistent, some are difficult on level 10, but most are way too easy now. I feel like a lot of the challenge of high difficulty missions have been taken away by the weapon buffs.
