Difficulty Bug?

Postby roidal » Sun Sep 16, 2012 8:52 am

If you change the name from at least one crew-member, then change the difficulty to "easy" and start the game it seems to be at "normal" instead of "easy".

How do you know it's normal? What are the scrap rewards like?

Because after changing the name of a crew-member many ships have already in sector 1 a drone, even on easy.

It should be fairly easy to check. I just tried it with the Kestrel. When you are playing easy you get 30 scrap at the start. On normal you only get 10.
Also, you can get a ship with a drone in Sector One, no matter what the difficulty is. Maybe you just got unlucky and ran into a lot of them?
