Don't judge players who play with friends. If they change the system to "Pre-made squads vs pre-made squads only", "Duo squad + random vs duo squad + random only" this will not work at all, the time to find players will be increased to 5-10 min aka NO! You better find some friends to play with, get used to it, or just change the game. I only play with friends in ranked, but I started doing the same in normal because the SBMM system is pretty * up.
I see it differently. For example, I don't buy a car just to drive with friends. It's nice to have friends with you, but that is and should not be a requirement. I have friends that I can play with, but now I play a lot more than my friends, they are not always available to me.
In Apex Legends there is the possibility to embark on an adventure yourself, to play randomly with others and that is a good thing. Only it should be more balanced, fairer.
I think there would be a lot of ways to improve the overall gaming experience. I think many share the feeling that this system should be improved.
Sometimes I think of things like: Squads of 3, but you can only start with a maximum of two in the lobby and then always get assigned a random one. I think that would provide more dynamism and balance.
Don't nail me on it now, that's just one of many ideas. What I'm saying is that there are many things you could do if you wanted to. Nothing would go wrong if one were to test such ideas on the basis of an event. Things that the community likes could then be integrated into the correct game mode.
