There are 35 playable Pilots in Brigador, each having accepted the open contract issued by the Solo Nobre Concern to subvert the colony of Solo Nobre. Some can be used during the Campaign, piloting specific loadsets, while all pilots can be used in Freelance mode once purchased on the Acquisitions screen.
In Freelance mode, the Pilot you choose (along with your vehicle and equipment) will determine the overall difficulty of a mission, as well as the final reward multiplier applied to the player's earnings upon completion. Each Pilot has their own unique values for:
- The difficulty at the outset of a Freelance operation
- The factions they'll face.
- The amount the difficulty rises after each District in an operation is completed
- The maximum difficulty reachable during a Freelance operation
- Mission completion bonuses
- Potential overall reward multiplier
Pilots fall into one of three camps: those with static difficulty values for the duration of an operation, those whose difficulty increases as the operation proceeds, and those who encounter only specific factions.
Difficulty is rated on a 1 to 13 scale (13 being labeled "MAX" in-game) and determines both the overall size of the opposing force and the type of enemy vehicles encountered in a district; small, weaker units are replaced by stronger vehicles with more advanced loadouts as the difficulty rises.
Furthermore there are 12 pilots (most added in the 'Nĭ Hăo a Tutti' update) that, unlike the other pilots who face any of the 3 factions at random, will only face 1 or 2 factions, at low or high difficulty. It isn't specified in their descriptions or values, but they can be recognized by how they're grouped together in the list, and share the same difficulty climb and payout.
Lastly, three more new pilots were added in the 1.6 Blood Anniversary Update who fight a special alternative spawn list, built around themed sets such as suicide bombers, Audiobook featured builds or all captains. All of the new pilots featured in this update are also cameo characters from either Cruelty Squad or Starsector games.
