Believe it or not,ย Palworldย launched with many options during Early Access, including choosing the ideal World Settings when playing. To do that, you must play at Custom difficulty; it allows you to configure everything from the day and night length to death penalties and beyond. While you can stick to any standard modes, you can customize your world for you and your friends to find the right balance between fun and challenge, or make your server a nightmare with brutal fights if that’s what you want.
How To Customize Your World Settings in Palworld
Whenever you fire up the game, you can choose between any of the four difficulties. Casual, Normal, Hard, and Custom. We’ll be focusing on the latter. This difficulty allows you to change several things to tailor your playthrough as much as possible. One of the most common things players do is keep the difficulty at normal and just switch the death penalties to none. However, we have a few options to make things more entertaining for you and your group.
- Day Time Speed: Leave this unchanged.
- Night Time Speed: Leave as is.
- EXP Rate: If you want to rush through the game, pump this up to 3 or 4.
- Pal Capture Rate: We don’t recommend editing this, but if you want to make capturing easier, move this to the max.
- Pal Appearance Rate: If you have a powerful PC, crank this up to fill the world with Pals.
