Re: Rank is unplayable for solo Q. I don't have a premade team.

As someone who is mostly a solo player I do not find this statement to be true. It is very much playable and winnable. I solo ranked a lot and do just fine. The key is stop doing what your team thinks is the smart play and sit back and think of the actual smartest play. Such as 2 push a bad push which you know is not winnable so you chill back playing yourself. While it is a team game where you get better results being with friends it still is possible for a solo player of all skill ranges. It's a matter of do I do what my team does with me knowing that is a bad idea or play yourself and be safe. 

As an example yesterday I was in ranked I see my 2 teammates who were a duo push 2 teams and died. I sat back poking and healing as needed to be told dude this is not hide and seek. Where I responded sorry I'm going to play this smart and safe to know I will kill these 2 teams. As I said that they left the game instantly without even being timed out. I ended up winning that game for 331 rp because I played the way I knew would be the best play. At that point those 2 were my mirage decoys.

    I keep trying to tell people Run and Gun is fin and dandy but it will not win the game alone. Playing smart and playing for position is King.

    Congrats on that win and way to play it smart. 

  • Wonder if you can share any stats of ranked queue. Numbers of regular full pre-made, or duos, numbers of for-couple-of-games pre-mades, number of soloq-ers. Until then you can't legitimately say about "needs of the many".

    I think you do not understand something here.

    I do not work for EA/Respawn I am just another Forum member and do not have access to anything that you are asking me about.

    As for the quote its is a Star Trek quote, read into it what you will.  

    I solo Q quite a bit myself and the game is very playable for me, it gets better when I play with one and especially with two of my friends. I win games in all three variations. 

  • Didn't notice that quote is part of signature. Looked very appropriate to the discuttion tho(pretty sure someone already mistaken such way too). Also i understand that you are not EA employee, but with previous mistake i did what i did.

    Thanks for the reply and NP. 

    Yes some people do mistake that that is part of my sig block but in a lot of cases the quote does in fact match the discussion. It is intended that way.

    I am very much engaged in try to make the game better via discussion and suggestions, better for all not just one player, or group of players or types of players bet better for as many players as possible. If we do not discuss and make good sound suggestions to problems or perceived problems. EA does see what we talk about but they have to decide if it is worth it for the game/players and the company.

    Thanks for being here on the forum and keep up the discourse.

    wishing you GG's, many wins and lots of kills.

    @E9ine_AC Why arent you a signed pro if you can manage not to get rolled by a squad of stacked predators while being in a squad with a gold 3 and gold 1 players ?
