Remember that there’s always a more difficult challenge to try, and adjusting the difficulty level of the game is one way to turn up the pressure in the combat zone.
Playing with incompetent teammates is another, less rewarding option. To fully understand the differences in difficulty, remember the following:
- All Infected inflict more damage in harder difficulties.
- All Infected have more Health in harder difficulties (for example, it takes twice as long to take down a Tank on the highest difficulty compared to Normal).
- During the Swamp Fever stage called Plantation, you face only one Tank at a time during the finale (when playing on Easy difficulty). All other difficulties feature two Tanks in the second wave.
- Friendly fire becomes much more damaging with higher difficulty.
