Initial thoughts on Solo mode, what are your thoughts?

Interesting gameplay.

Situational awareness & map positioning are even more important.

Though if played optimally I suspect it suffers from the exact same problem as ranked; camping.

Sure, killing someone is a great way of gearing up, but the same can be achieved by looting others' kills.

Unless you're absolutely sure there's no one around to third party, it's better not to engage. (Unless you're the one third partying ofc)

Maybe for solo, gunfire and explosions should not carry as far.

I definitely want to see it become permanent; it's a great way to play when your regular buddies aren't around. Far less frustrating than soloing with randoms.

Class balance is shot to hell, but the badges requiring we use all the classes go some way to keeping the meta sane. (I was honestly expecting maps literally covered with the zip lines from 60 Pathfinders!)
