Combine that with possibly some other server settings that ramps up the difficulty then you have a PVE survival game that you can play with other players.
You can adjust things like NPC damage, Farming rate, Survival rate (how fast you starve or die of thirst), leveling speed, Purge rate, Purge difficulty, Thrall cook time etc.
Basically it is possible you could make the game so bunny rabbits can one shot you and the Purge attacks you a couple times a day while barely having enough food and water to stay alive.
I believe we can reset the server and still keep our characters however I am not sure that matters. You can be max level in 2 days regardless.
With our current game I think we found somewhat of a balance. We haven't been wiped but our base has taken considerable damage to Purges. I do think we need to ramp up the difficulty or it will get routine. Optimally we want to lose occasionally so it stays interesting. If you always win I think you can ramp up faster than the AI can keep up. Especially with how Thralls work now. i.e., I think it is possible to build an army to beat the max difficulty of the Purges.
