Apex's biggest problems
Ever since launch there have been 3 major issues I have had with this game. 1 has been partially fixed, one looks like it may be getting fixed next week and im hoping Respawn will fix the third soon....

@RockScorpion384 Just wanna poke your argument a bit. There is no such thing as a one v one straight and outright. The closest thing to it is a surprise situation where you walk into someone and suddenly start firing on one another.
You literally have to manufacture some kind of bizarre isolated situation where two players, same skill level, same CHARACTER, one with blue one with purple, bow to each other and start a fight. That ain't how it happens.
Yes 9/10 someone with a PK & purple is going to smoke someone with a P2020 no hammer with blue. However any idiot that's going to let someone get point blank PK in a 1V1 "fair" fight is a *.
What environment, what elevation, what character, what gun vs what gun.
Too many questions for a straight this beats that, rock paper shotgun.
I have had one nearly amazing situation where I got the drop on a team of 3 as a solo since my allies died, nuked them with grenades, dropped 2 with a bique, and stunted on the 3rd because i didn't weapon swap and laser his *. The element of surprise plays a massive part in this game, some people tend to forget.
Do the guns need to be balanced at various skill points so each gun has its perks to using it over another? Yes, absolutely. I despise finding P2020's and walking into a hot zone fight.
I agree with loot distribution as well needs a fix, because be damned if you land in a building with only shields, parts and items.
Shield swapping however feels like a high level strategy, hard to do with random allies admittedly because * may take your stuff afterwards.
Do I want to get punished in unranked for leaving? Hell no, what about when you get matched with a 10 year old that can't play and thinks everything he sees belongs to him? Or * allies that push and ambush when you aren't near to help, then get pissed at you when they engaged without you? Allies that get killed and ask where you were when you legit killed 1, knocked 1 and tapped the 3rd, but they still got downed?(Actually won this match and resed them for final 2 squad fight, but could have easily gone sideways). I have had all of these happen to me and don't regret leaving or not leaving in any of these situations.
You don't want random unranked people to leave your match? Remove the random from the equation. Because I'll be damned if I get into a match, hear 2 squeakers, watch them play extremely poorly and be expected to stay and "hold their hand" when I am only trying to get my dailies done. Might sound harsh but I play well with other players that compliment my skill, I am simply not GOOD enough to makeup the skill difference for bad players and its terrible that the current SBMM doesn't take this into account.
If the skill always added upto 10 and I am rated at a 6/10 with a 2/10 & 2/10 against a 3/10, 4/10, 4/10 suddenly I am expected to makeup a 4 point difference. I ain't that good, I have good moments (example given above) but not a consistent capacity to play with bad players, especially considering how mentally draining that is.
Ran on for a bit but I think i was clear.
- Balance guns: Yes
- Lose shields: No
- Unranked penalty: No

*Sidenote* Recommend the swapping of PK & Bique mag sizes.

@MonhulioThats the other reason I need solos, its 10 times easier to do your dailys/weeklys by yourself than it is with a squad because your able to focus on your challenges vs having to follow your teammates or go res them somewhere, also 90% of the time they want to loot the edge of the map when I need kills/damage for my dailys/weeklys so of course im dropping solo to have some fights, also i drop solo for location based challenges if I need a certain location to do them
