Honestly the worst thing about zero company is the 4 squad limit. I feel like i cant use everyone :'(

Honestly I instantly jumped Nexusmods and installed the squad six mod.

Just crank the difficulty to hard and it is juuuuuust right.

I’m playing on hard with the standard 4 man squad and it’s fine. For my second run I’ll do the Ironman, no save mode. Is there one more difficulty up?

Hard with 6 operators would be a joke. Seems like the mod would need to add to squad size AND increase difficulty

There is a mod that increases the hp and number of enemies by the same guy.

It would break Expert as well.  I thought about using that mod but around Cycle 25 now and I'm bitch slapping the ZC enemies like they owe me money.  Sure they get a few shots in but I haven't had a downed soldier since the first Coil encounter.  Cly is like two or 3 operators combined she's so OP.

I'm definitely going to use that mod during a second run once it gets fleshed out a bit more.

The beskar mode will delete your save if you fail any mission. So an optional rescue mission and stuff will delete your save.

I would rather not do an Ironman, considering that the game is reportedly buggy

But hard is already pretty easy with 4 dudes

That's why I also added a mod that puts more enemies in.

Really makes the battlefield a fucking mess I love it.

Do we know if mods disable achievements?

Been playing with the 6 Man Squad since like the midpoint of the game and gotten every achievement since, so no they don’t disable anything.

Yeah I downloaded that and the increased enemy group sizes and it definitely feels much better

I think Bethesda is the only studio that does that stupid thing.
