That's the thing though, these polls are not about how difficult the game is, but rather how difficult the platinum is to obtain. Hence, the title, "Platinum Difficulty Rating". So having trouble getting people together to get the platinum would definitely make the platinum difficulty go up in a platinum difficulty thread.

The single-player is bad, but good in a B-movie way. The trophies are easy and somewhat fun. If this were the end of it, the game would be a 3. However, the online makes that number go up. Winning 10 deathmatches, SEAL Team Six, and playing 50 buggy/freezing/craptastic online matches is ridiculous. Boosting works but you'll need at least 4 people to start a ranked match and you'll need at least 5 to do SEAL Team Six (3 from your friends list on your team and someone else on the other team). The online takes way too long, as well.

This game could be a 4 but with freezing, floaty controls and other problems, the game ends up being a 6 or 7.

gave it a 3. very very easy for the single player trophies, the only difficulty is the bloody annoying servers

I voted this game a 6 and I can see the votes are all over the board and I understand why.

story mode is easy even with having to play it 3 times
online is a different story - servers are a pain - 10 RDM wins is annoying even with boosting partners - the gameplay itself is not hard but the servers and the trophy requirements for online made this rather tough to achieve - I AM GLAD ITS OVER and I think I will break the disc and burn the box now.

Finally got this plat. As mentioned over, SP is easy as hell, but online. It's hard to find people to boost with. Even 5 persons. If you ask a random guy if he wanna boost, he pretty much seems to be retarded. Had to do that alot as not many people are boosting this at the moment.

I can't believe this will give me a decent 6/10 on the Platinum difficulty leaderboard, I thought this would be like a 2/10.

I gave it a 3, nothing was hard about this game difficulty wise. Online trophies are a pain to boost if you cant find people to cooperate. Overall it was easy. Pain in the ass because difficulty trophies dont stack but what can you do. Easy run took like 45 minutes to complete. Terrible online system though. If your going for plat good luck and dont stress about online or else you will want to kill yourself.

A 3. Game was easy but the online stuff is difficult to get only because arranging the neccessary people can be frustrating. As some others have said, no trophy id difficult but I gave it an extra step up due to the need to find 4 other people to get the online. It's dead aside from boosting.

Gave this a 4. Single player is easy, even on elites. The hardest level for me on elites was level 2 and after that I was able to blow through the game. Saved Regulars for last and beat it in an hour and 45 minutes. The single player to this game is around a 2 or 3.

The online is the rough part. Organizing 4 people is hard and then just playing all those matches is a bitch. For ranked DM, you need to play at least 40 games to get everyone their trophies which needless to say is a hassle. They aren't hard really but the organization needed and shoddy servers make it more difficult then they should be.

Gave this a 5. Single Player was a 2 and you can easily complete each of the 3 difficulty modes in 1 day individually. Curb-Stomper trophy wasn't as bad as I thought it would be and I got it over the natural course of the game.

What really drives up the difficulty to a 5 for me is the multiplayer. Trying to set up a game (unranked and ranked) with 4-5 people is a hassle. The awful servers makes it even worse especially since EU and US servers are separated.
Fortunately, we got all our boosting done in 2 days.

I strongly recommend setting up a boosting session in the late night hours to avoid getting into conflict with other people's boosting session. It wouldn't be fun trying to outboost the other team in a ranked DM.
