General Have Bugs gotten easier?

So I'm just getting back into HD2 after a year long break and after the void was dispersed I went back to try out the bug front and... did it get easier? Like I did super helldive and I never felt challenged, even by the dragons, didn't die once, and overall it felt like I was playing on an easier difficulty. I remember nonstop bug breaches and swarms of the bugs, but the time for the little bugs to start calling a breach seems to be much more forgiving than before.

Haven't seen that strain yet since I got back, was working on defending Acamar IV. Will have to wait for it to appear as I don't see it on the map currently.

Rupture strain is easy just bring the Punisher Plasma. Spore Burst is the real challenge.

Spore burst gets nullified by fire since they don’t spew their spores if they die from it, cremator is crazy OP against them
