Add Solos Already
Im sick and tired of playing with other players, theres always one that just spam pings when they get knocked or constantly spams respawn beacons, im officially done with babysitting and won’t help t...
I'll be honest I didn't read your post or the responses but this is what I have to say about solo and I feel like it is a smart opinion...
1st... You are immediately making longer queues for everyone. PUBG did this with FPP/TPP modes and then they added solo/duo/squad for each mode now you are dividing the player base up into 1/6th assuming its divided evenly (which obviously its not 100% but it still makes the queue times much longer.)
2nd... Apex has classes and a lot of battle royals don't. I am going to use PUBG again for example. In PUBG you just start out and you are what you are and what you find. You don't have special abilities bc you picked x class. In solo mode this type of play makes a huge difference. A wraith against a gibby in solo probably favors the wraith by a lot bc of the smaller hit box vs the larger hit box and the gibbys dome and ult don't make up enough for the hitbox alone excluding the wraiths ability to not take damage and or make a port.
3rd. I love the idea of a solo mode Apex. I don't care that wraith might be better than Gibby in solo or I might have to wait an extra 30 seconds or minute to join a game. Solo mode would allow for many things including players who are good but can't find 2 other equally skilled teammates. And yes to your point about bad teammates... you aren't wrong. Anyone who says "its you and not your teammates" clearly has no idea how competitive sports/games work. Someone go link me a pro tournament with a pro team using a non pro player. (You can't) My point being your teammates 100% matter and solo mode would make this such a non factor and allow for players with skill to rank up high and meet other high ranked players and form teams.
