why do solos have to suffer from the pain of playing with duos? remove duos from the game or do so they are only 2 players in team. or better yet give us solo only ranked! [CM - Edited title for caps]

@xAAxAAx Yeah, situation from yesterday. I've been mixed with two "pre-made duos" one of them good, other newbie ( as always ) , the newbie got knocked down during the fight and his friend stopped shooting and went back to help him (leaving me alone with a full squad) I got downed and they run away.

@Asmodeus566 The trio-queue is the core feature of the game, it'll never be removed. And I hope that a due-queue will be introduced to ranked and arena in the future. I really don't like to play with a random whenever I cannot find a third premade.The duo-queue is also great for practice. I often untick the "fill" box to try it solo. It's a great way to learn how to handle yourself in sticky unfair situations.

Yes.. AT LEAST make it visible for the solo queuing player if he is playing with a premade duo and also remove the leaver penalty for that solo player. This is fair because the main reason the leaver penalty exist is because "in spoils the fun for your teammates"... BUT SO IS BEING FORCED TO PLAY WITH A PREMADE DUO.... I just came out of a ranked game with a premade duo which I actually left early and got 10 min timeout... The reason was because I had the most passive duo premade in the history of this game. One Caustic, one Lifeline. EVERY time we got attacked, they bot ran to the closest house or cover and just sat there. I ended up with +1500 dmg, 1 assist and 6 knocks because of their way of playing this game. Every fight the same; I knock one enemy, they run to cover, I am solo vs 2 and have to back off and they res their teammate... And what made me leave the game was when I finally got knocked and that noob Lifeline runs out, starts a res IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NOWHERE, then runs back to his Caustic premade who ofc sits and does nothing in some house...Its a FACT that 9/10 premade duos treat their random as dog poo. Respawn need to acknowledge this.@TBTFW Yupp, its the sad truth. A premade duo will pretty much always use you (and your life) as a bait so they can res each other...

@Balladalidila and do you know what is even worse? in 89% - one of these pre-made duos is controller but not PRO controller like Daltoosh or G2 team, controller with -0.0.0.0.0000000 skills.

there are many reasons why duo queue ruins the fun for the solo. duos just ruin the game for both parts. sometimes they don't talk when they run away from a fight or when they go in but when they die you can be sure they can use the voice chat for ´´constructive criticism´´. it makes the game bad for them and me. they do not want to work as a team all they want is to play with a friend. this is also the reason why the gap in skill level is so stupid because boosting a friend is acceptable. solo queue ranked is a must for more players to have a better time. deranking would also help alot.

@xAAxAAx I don't really understand your thought process here..
You miss the option to solo-queue, so therefore you want them to remove the option to due-queue? How does that solve anything?

I do agree that it'd be nice to have a solo-queue as well, but I still want to be able to both duo- and trio-queue.

I think I understand what @xAAxAAx is getting at here. They did not want the Duo mode removed but rather Trios removed since playing as a solo Q'er puts them at a serious disadvantage in Trio pubs or Ranked play.
The game's core concept is team based and if you can not do that then go ahead and join a match with the no fill option and solo drop, it is your choice to put yourself in that position.
I really like playing with my two friends and hope that EA never ever removes the option to pre-made play or get rid of Trios in Pubs and Ranked play.

I tend to play Arena Ranked for warm up. Much better than the firing range.
I will have to give Duo with no fill a try. see if I can sharpen my 1v2 skills. Thanks for the tip.

@Asmodeus566 duo players do not want to play as a team with the solo 99% of games you team just run in an die and you are left alone. but yes there should be a solo only ranked queue this fixed the boosting that is going on so you are not playing with a bornze that paied for masters

just palyed 12 games today all with duos all with a terriable games. how the * do the deveolpers expect you to stay sane when in 12 games 2 teams wnated to work together with me the rest just ran off doing what ever duos that only ruin games for others do! maybe i am just to old but it is like the game is favoring stupid children so they can sell more skins. why do you even want a skin if it is not reward for awesomeness? all you flex is you IQ 50 to buy something that does nothing. i would gladly have bought this game if the rules in ranked was not so bad.
