Abiotic FactorGame difficulty controls how challenging enemies are throughout the GATE facility. Higher difficulties mean more aggressive creatures with faster reaction times.
Hardcore Mode is a separate setting that forces Apocalyptic difficulty and enables permadeath - your character only has one life.
Changing Game Difficulty
- Navigate to the Wabbanode Control Panel and Stop your server.
- Click the Settings tab and select Abiotic Factor Sandbox Settings.
- Locate the Game Difficulty setting and select your preferred level.
- Click Save and Start your server.
Difficulty Levels
| Difficulty | Description |
|---|---|
| Normal | Standard enemy behavior and spawn rates - recommended for new players |
| Hard | More aggressive enemies with faster reactions and increased threat |
| Apocalyptic | Maximum enemy threat level - for experienced survivors only |
Tips
- Start on Normal to learn the facility layout and mechanics
- Hard mode is great for experienced groups looking for more challenge
- Apocalyptic difficulty is extremely punishing - prepare thoroughly before engaging enemies
Your server's difficulty is now configured. The containment breach in the GATE facility will be as challenging as your team can handle.
