I'd like to learn more about the difficult setting as well. Can you make the game considerably more difficult? Does it apply to MP?

Out,

It took me about 15 hours to complete the game with 750k credits left over...

While I loved it, it was rather short.

How do you get that many credits by only playing the game 15 hours? You must've gotten spoilers about trade routes prior to or during play.

I beat the campaign in 19 hours, but I only had enough credits to stay alive. I was comfortable enough, but I certainly didn't have near the amount you got...

and where the hell is the difficulty setting?!?!?!?! i guess it gets a bit harder as you go but you should still have easy, medium and hard.....

Once I'd got oodles of money I traded in my Drone friegther for a good HF and loaded it up with the bets stuff I could find. The I went and accpeted the SOP mission which presented littlew difficulty. I keep repeating this tactic now and so far it's worked fine.

I think this is why some people say the game is too easy and soem say it's hard - the real difficukty modifer is in how long you spend preparing for the next SP missions.

Nope, those that think it´s to easy, simply know how to avoid enemy fire. And as the AI shoots really bad, you get barely hit, doesn´t matter what ship you fly. You don´t have aswell repair costs, can make extra money with selling your bats and bots (until those suizide missions starts, there at least me start to need some, cause to much fire at the beginning of the mission) and overall its real easy.

Btw the difficult setting should work aswell at higher settings than 1.0, than ai ships should simply do some extra dmg.

Does anyone know which *.ini file the difficulty setting is located in?

Thanks,
Volstag
