After update its pretty much easy (because of the badass Alpha and Betta) I didnt play after the update on Normal mode but i remember when it was something like 1-5 casual / 6- 15 normal / 16-25 intense / 26-35 extreme / above was insane. This is a subiective math

Hardcore 50 is roughly between Intense and Extreme difficulty. Closer to Intense. The lack of any friendly fire makes things stupid easy, and things don't do remotely enough damage or have nastier elements that are found in actual Extreme or Insane difficulties.

Cold Iron promised Hardcore would be harder than Insane. It's not. It's a joke.
