Grabbed this on the 50% off sale with a few friends to do the campaign play and it's great, I'm impressed as hell. There's an immensely satisfying difficulty curve, where the fun initially comes from scrambling around flailing to save your doomed vessel, and progresses to greater and greater levels of not-loving-up that still gets spicy even when you know what you're doing. Not sure I'd enjoy it solo, although some people seem to really get a kick out of that, but boy is it great as a 3-5 player co-op experience.

Also, mods! Our group is running GunLights, Meaningful Upgrades, Into the Abyss, and EK Armory, which adds some nice additional - heh - depth to what's already there. Any others we should be on the lookout for?

What has people's experience with the radiation wave been like? My co-op crew got caught in it, and it actually seemed to make the game dramatically easier: every monster that wasn't flagged for a mission was dead in the water, including fractal guardians in ruins, and the radiation damage has been negligible so far. We're just cruising through empty seas hoovering up loot, and it's frankly taken all the challenge out of the game. Is there something we're missing here?
