Hardcore difficulty seems easier?
Hello, I just started playing Mass Effect Legendary Edition, starting with Mass Effect 1, and was happy to find out that hardcore difficulty setting was unlocked right away. Not trying to show off ...

After playing a little more I think it's worth noting that the Mako sections in Legendary are much more difficult due to the "improved" controls. It's impossible to strafe now since it only drives toward or away from the camera direction instead of forward and backward like it used to. The announced option to revert to the old controls is also missing.

The section on Noveria where you have to drive to the research outpost was easier on foot than it was in the Mako.
@beef623The option isn't missing; in the Controls menu, it's called "Mako camera-relative steering". Turn it off.
That option doesn't exist on the Playstation version. I've heard some say that in their PC version it also isn't there, I don't know about Xbox.
@beef623Ah I see, I didn't realize you weren't on PC. Yeah, it seems to be a PC-exclusive option.
you're all wrong, i could play normal easily in the OT, but hardcore in LE is still too difficult for me, so it's definitely a whole lot harder then OT normal difficulty.
Mako has no option on Xbox.
I found the gunplay hugely improved on console.
