Every battle royale has a solo mode!! this Game will never have a good reason to implement solo play! AFKS, Disconnects, People that wont group,not having friends, it seems that respawn doesn't find a good reason to implement solo mode!!! even tho there are many more reasons than the ones mentioned above.

This game is not designed to be solo based on the legends alone only a handful would be playable in solo mode. More would be at a disadvantage.They are meant to interact in a team dynamic.

@Kateh8sapex This is exactly right. Even playerunknown who supported respawn at first started saying the numbers don't add up about the Apex playerbase. They made a big deal of how 40+ million downloads in the first 2 weeks or something but those figures where EA's figures and could not be independently verified. If you think about it though saying something like that would get you so much marketing! This whole game was just one BIG BS lie after another. Respawn and EA are disgusting companies.

@E9ine_AC lol i lough so hard..1. the fact that it had 70 mill Sign Up and by the time i see this it only say 900k and 1 mill peak active player? and 100k peak on steam? so sad.2. it said china only around 3% i mean https://newzoo.com/insights/rankings/top-10-countries-by-game-revenues/ do the site/you read news?3. the credibilty of the site is so funny https://playercounter.com/about/ "Welcome to PlayerCounter, where a bunch of gaming nerds with half-baked programmer skills got together to find a way of tracking player counts of online games."

@ELZI_The_Light Solo is going to be the most chosen game mod. After season 4 and them turning on the skill-based-matchmaking-system, no one wants to carry the burden ( trash-weak-new players). There are so many problems they can't fix since season 5, why expect anything different. High level players with skills mixed with 0 skill players - both sides are not happy. Not to mention the fact that when weak players get knocked they leave the game immediately, even if you try to rev them 🙂 They will never add solo mode because it will kill a trio and a duo because no one wants to play in a team with weak players. They are good only in forcing, they force you to play with noobs, they force you to play only maps they want (choose map option will never be added as well as solo), they are good in selling ugly skins but not to fix errors and problems.

@ELZI_The_Light They didn't implement it when they had high population now that their game is dying there is ZERO chance that they will implement a solo mode.

@zombieshoota5000 Think about it, skins you don't see for yourself when playing, the heirloom you do, showing stuff off to your friends plays a huge factor to a lot of people, then there's the people who are collectors, and then there's the people who don't really care about skins and wasting money.

It's not about us understanding that you still want to play solo's, i'm not a fan of solo's cause I think it's boring as hell but that wouldn't stop me signing a petition for solo's to be added so that others who like it could play. It's just not in the agenda of Respawn as most people would just choose pathfinder/wraith. It wouldn't really be a big difference to duo's/trios. Respawn keep stressing that it's a team based game and every update they do makes it more of a team based game. That's just the sad cycle of life for Apex, sadly.

@MoNosDirtyGaming You do see your own skins actually, I mean not legend skins but even so you can show it off to enemies and with doing finishers that I love to do with my skins and it’s so cool.

@zombieshoota5000Finishers some dont even know how you can pad some damage. While bullets do not register as damage being done when a player has been knocked on their dmg counter a finisher will grant them 100 dmg.

I love all my finishers Also when third person mode comes around you do indeed see your skins on yourself. But it is more of a flex thing more then anything just a cosmetic.

Everything they say there are totally valid argument. You are just arguing against yourself, claiming Respawn says something and then saying thats invalid because this or that.
Yes they mention that the game is designed to be a team game which is a totally legit argument. If solo was a thing in this game, ALL balancing of the game would be totally off for solos vs 3-teams; round timers, map size, loot spawn and ofc legend balancing. Legends like Lifeline would be considerably weaker in solos and legends like Pathfinder would be considerably stronger etc etc..

So bottom line is that IF they added solo as a regular mode, maybe even with ranked, then they would have to put alot of time and effort into balancing that mode too. Its much better they try to make the best team based BR than trying to be good at everything. League of legends COULD probably be a decent story driven PvE game, like Diablo 3 too, if RIOT put all their resources into that, but you probably understand why its not possible to please everyone.

@fanz46Actually well over 70 million accounts have signed up and logged in over the course of the year and change its been out. Note also the 70 million people was when apex first launched. No telling the numbers now well exceeded 70m.

There are currently actively playing at any given time between 900k to 1.3 million players online.

@E9ine_AC and i ask again from where that data coming from? if its from EA or Respawn itself, why should i believe it? especially from publicly trade company, if there are'nt any real data to proof it or real journalism to back it, it just another PR stunt from company to boost that stock market price

Def not a PR stunt this website keeps track of many games player online count.
