bacteria mega brutal - spotted with no symptoms evolved

[GHR1223b]

Playing bacteria mega brutal.

I started in China, Russia or Saudi Arabia. Even tried UK.

I evolve water I & II, air I & II, cold I and then it begins spreading like wildfire and promptly gets spotted. I evolve drug resistance and heat but it cost too much.
No symptoms evolved and no mutations only the above. Cure begins and goes from 59 yrs to nothing in record time. I evolve the hypersensitivity and the drug resistance II and genetic shuffle, but the latter two take off a grand total of 10% by the time I evolve them the cure is at 50%. And then it all falls apart. I get to 4B infected by evolving what I can by this point and get into the kill symptoms, but it cascades too fast and cure = 100% before I get to 2B dead.

What do I do to stop this initial spotting?! It all stems from that.
I did the normal and brutal with three gold marks, but MB is being a *itch!

Since it's not visible symptoms what the heck is getting it spotted too soon?

That's interesting. What platform are you playing on?

Steam on PC

Maybe this is just the nature of MB mode? It get's spotted no matter what?

Looking at several run through videos on You Tube it seems that it does tend
to be spotted no matter and evolving symptoms is not critical.

MegaBrutal does make it much more difficult for you to go unnoticed. There's a few guides here, so I would suggest reading up on it and trying a few more times.

If you keep having problems no matter what you try, maybe send us a message through the support page so we can check it's not a bug.

In mega-brutal mode description stands "Random medical check-ups", that means they will find your plague even without anything evolved.
Trying to spread unnoticed is a very bad strategy anyway, because you have no severity and therefore you get very low DNA points. You should be evolving symptoms that boost your infectivity as early as possible + more severity gives you more DNA.
