OK, so are there any SFs and TFs or any more game content that can be played using the new difficulty settings? I logged back in for the first time in a couple of months with the hopes of soloing the LRSF with no AVs. It still says that I need a team of 8 to do it even when set to 8 people on my difficulty. I tried the Tarikoss SF too, same thing. So really, the new difficulty settings only let us put more bad guys in the normal missions and MA stuff? Is that right?

You would still need the minimum number of people to start the TF, but then have all but one quit (so there are two left). The other person would need to log out but not quit. You have to have the minimum 2 people so the TF does not disband. You would then be able to solo the TF. However, one of the recent patches made TFs ignore the difficulty settings as people were getting Mo badges on -1 with no AVs and it was felt this was cheating the system a bit.

Looking at that logically, you have to ask just how did anyone think that was the correct solution ? I mean the other option is to not award the badges unless you are on normal difficulty or better.

Be warned: all task force and strike force AV's *DO NOT DOWNGRADE*. You can be in there all alone and they will still be AV's regardless of your difficulty settings. The AV's will only scale down to EB's in regular missions.

Income tax was TEMPORARY

And I am sure it still is only a temporary solution.

And the tax above, on your phone service was also temporary.

Another "the real question" would be, why did they suddenly allow TF AVs to be affected by the downgrade-able when solo effect? They've never been subject to it before...
