Keep it’s a good break from squads
- Sweet video man, however, I think you're more of a team based player and pretty much pointed out just the bad aspects of solo mode. Some new/casual players are looking to jump into a ffa casual match, and have some fun, not constantly having to look out for 2 teammates and being pressured to be pro.
I personally have seen every legend in a match, not just 3 consistent legends.
I feel like a lot of casual/new players enjoy this mode and they should keep it. It gives players much more sense of accomplishment, and a chance to hone in on their own skills as a player so they can eventually incorporate that into a pro squad one day if they chose to do so.
You did mention you enjoyed the aspect that you didn't have to carry players, or someone without to much knowledge of the game. Solo mode will give new/casual players a chance to gain much more knowledge about the game. Instead most new/casual players are being left by themselves to fend off against teams of 3, in essence never really getting a chance to get good at the game, explore the map to understand it, or just take some time to learn each gun.
My thoughts. Keep solos, add duos, but first before you add or update anything else. Fix your servers (Xbox specific)
Solo is fun, although there's a heavy increase of wall hackers and aimbotters joining the fray that it's no longer fun for me.
@Midnight9746What platform do you play on? I'm on ps4 and have never ran into anyone hacking. Unless you have video evidence or clearly see someone tracking through walls, this player is probably just more skilled then you are.
- @voltageblue8 PC and it's not skill, I know skill when I see it. People are 3-5 shotting me (when I have purple armor as well and they don't have a disruptor), some hit me through walls, preaim without hearing or seeing me, etc
- @Midnight9746 Yeah guess i cant speculate to much here i play on the ps4. Try getting a video of this happening and post it.

Thoughts on Solos:
"Don't have to worry about carrying any randoms" Watch out now! Hehe. Just kidding, great review and thanks for sharing!
Fun clips to watch while listening to the commentary, you really touched up on a lot of concerns from the community like Pathfinders always on your tail when you're trying to heal up and players teaming up.
When it comes to balancing Legends, which 3 do you think are the MOST popular in Solos and which bottom 3 do you think should get changes? What type of changes? (Caustic is definitely great when it comes down to the end with his abilities, but can be a huge target when you're moving from one ring to another. Great point though!) - @EA_Blueberry caustic and gib are literal sponges, that health buff really extends the fight
- @EA_Blueberry I appreciate the response! Pathfinder, Bangalore and Wraith to me are the most popular. They are some of the most mobile characters and allow you to quickly engage or reposition yourself in a fight. The least are Wattson, Mirage and maybe Gibraltar. For Wattson, I feel as though her abilities are better suited for squads.I just feel as though there are only a few legends where there abilities are viable for both squads and solos. Mirage's abilities lose effectiveness the more people play the game. I understand the purpose of Gibraltar's shield, but with no one watching your back I'd rather not give away more my position when you can probably already hear the gun shots.
