Quick Question about a games difficulty

Is there any way of determining what difficulty your game is in? (Packet Sniffing)

[EDIT]: Just a side note, you need to decompress the messages from the server in a d2 game. (Search this forum for "d2gs decompression" topic made by brandx)
The packet its self is sent to clients in the login to the game server.
