So what does the access difficulty modifier even do anymore since hacking is now all about virus coherence and strength?

I know random is random and all that, but after i trained hacking and archaeology 4, i seem to be getting fewer regeneration and virus suppressor nodes.

I'm guessing that access difficulty modifier just makes the mini-game easier...

I'm a relatively respectable citizen. Multiple felon perhaps, but certainly not dangerous.

okay, but is there any solid information from the Devs on what it does?

Why wouldn't they just remove it then? It seems like it must serve some purpose if they left it there.

Incursion site hacking targets still use the old mechanic (at least for now), so it's probably still useful there.
