Mind you, but beta was totally different than release. I went through beta with this setup and it was much much easier.
Skills are changed, enemies are tougher and reacting differently.
I don't claim to be a "l337" gamer, though i have been gaming since the 8bit days and IMHO know a thing or two about gaming, but with 2 lone wolves on hard the game is not a walk in the park at all.
At least in the first area, where i currently am.
I imagine without lone wolf the game will be extremely hard, when 5+ enemies are pounding on you and you don't have neither the points, no the life to survive it and kill them, let alone be hard controlled for a turn or two.
As a starter such a play-through requires a quite different mindset as to what to do in fights and how and when to approach them.
The same situation in beta and i thought the game was too easy.
So please do try 2 non-lone wolves without companions on hard and show us your skills.
And no hex editing the save game files please...
