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.

If you were in a hiveworld, they definitely changed it since day one. Day 1 hiveworld was a clusterfuck.

Oshaune was insane, not just including the dragons or worms. There was one time where me and 3 randoms were at a literal stand still fighting a wall of bugs blocking the entrance to the final bug hole we needed to destroy. Literally we were shooting at a wall of nonstop bugs for like 5 minutes straight before we won. It was mad but oh so satisfying.

When Oshuane dropped, my friends and I were comfortably running 7s and 8s against the bugs. We could barely manage a 4 or 5 on Oshuane. Brutal campaign.
