But thats what early access is for, we're essentially beta testing

Agree, I lean more toward the "casual" side but like a good (and fair) challenge. Felt the original launch was "unfairly punishing" ... getting mobbed by mobs, blimps respawning too fast, etc. I'm sure multiplayer is a blast, but I'm speaking from a solo perspective.

However, also agree the nerf-o-rama feels like an overcorrect. I actually like the seeker AI change because having them circulate and fight more like a pack of Fulings is more interesting than "charge" followed by "slugfest" all the time. That and the correction of the spawn rates was probably all that was needed.

As for the "unfair" raid, the seeker AI change probably would have been enough. Ok, changing the composition of the raid to remove soldiers also was more than enough. Why then go even another step and remove the raid from the other biomes? Conversely, why change the composition of the raid if you're going to remove it from the other biomes anyway?

I think the queen fight is a still total slog solo (took me an hour - subject of another long thread).

I hope they can get the balance "dialed-in" over time ... actually love the biome and think it's the most interesting.
