Solos and Duos are needed
This game lacks of solo and duos. Making people to play in party with randoms is a good idea, but forcing them to do so is not. Sometimes its possible to find a great teammates and win a game with th...

Ever heard of a strange thing called making and having friends? There won't be a solo or duo because the whole idea behind this game is based on teamplay. Get friends and play with them. Problem solved.

What if I dont want to play with someone? I believe i'm not the only one who wants to play alone.
Then play PUBG. This is a teambased game. Stupid question. Can we have a solo queue in soccer because I prefer playing alone?
- bro relax, all these games are team based game, that doesn't mean always want to play with someone or if there's is two of us that doesn't mean we want a third. Its okay to have options , grow up
- "the whole idea behind this game is based on teamplay"
Actually the whole idea is Battle Royale... and with that, there is usually just one winner. Meaning.... solo. That is the root of BR.

then dont play a team/class-based game
I somewhat agree with this since I've gotten many random people in my groups lately who will drop by themselves half a map away and just go off on their own for the first couple of minutes until they inevitably die to the first squad they meet since they're always 1v2 or 3. Sometimes a lot of squeak chat will then fill my ears as they loudly complain about their team not backing them up (often over 900+m away), sometimes they just silently leave the match before their body hits the ground. Shroud they are not but everyone seems to think they are. Please get them out of the squad-based team game so they can all go play with themselves.
That's probably one of the dumbest arguments i ve seen in a long time here. You are aware that are people who want to play alone in video games and not have any social interaction with anyone...2) This game wont survive without the ability to play Solo/Duo its consider a must 3)there is a tweet from Apex that solo/duo will be implemented

Haven't found a single word on their twitter about Solo/Duo. Can uoi drop a link please?

2) I assume you've done the necessary research into market potential to make such as baseless claim that the game will fail without solo/duos. Respawn have said that they wanted to break conventions of Battle Royale and all you want is to make into all of the others.
3) Where are these tweets? Someone else has already asked this and you haven't provided any evidence? I did my own research and found no evidence of any mention of solo or duo play.
If you don't want to play in a trio and don't have others to play with then don't play it. No game can be designed to suit everyone.- But what is the problem with implementing solo/duo. Will it hurt anyone?
And you are one of the dumbest persons I've seen in a long time. This game is a squad-based and teamplay oriented and you're asking for solo queue? Are you serious? If you want to play alone then don't play a team-oriented shooter. Are you also demanding a solo-mode in Battlefield or in Rainbow 6 Siege?
And now please add the tweet from Respawn that they will add a solo or duo based mode in this game.
Solo's would be nice but I don't think it's required - not sure what the point of duo's would be, surely just too similar to trio? is it really that bad to have a random guy on your team?
I like the idea of being able to 2man/solo in the squads game too - that would be my preference over a separate solo queue so that you don't split the playerbase.
Or maybe run solo's as regular seasonal events with additional coin/xp on offer
@firebird-gabr1eL Listen to yourself.. In order to enjoy the game you are forced to go talk and make friends with randoms in your game.. Sometimes you just want to play solo. Sometimes you dont feel like having some random bot on your team that doesnt want to communicate. SOMETIMES you get that player in your squad that just wants to run solo and leaves you and your buddy to finish the game 2 against 3.. What would it hurt putting solos in? Or Duos? It wouldnt hurt anything.. You would still need to work as a team in duos just as much as trio. People like you are annoying to all hell.
What? Why do I have to talk to randoms/strangers? First of all, every friend you have once was a stranger to you. Second of all, I have friends to play with. They were strangers but years ago we started playing together and now we are friends. And even when we have a random in our squad we try to be nice and communicate (voip, ping, chat) as well as possible.
Maybe you don't know but human beings normally do have some sort of social behavior. You should really ask yourself why you are not able to find friends and cooperate with others. This is a squad-based game. The whole idea of the abilities and mechanics is that they should complete each other.
No one's forcing you to talk to randoms. You don't have to play this game. You can go solo in PUBG. Have fun there. Introducing solo/duo would destroy the whole idea behind this game and splitting the community. Do you also ask for solo mode in Overwatach or League of Legends?
My advice to you. Go ingame and play matches. If you find good mates (equal skill level, good communication) add them as a friend, find a discord server and play with them together or go and find a clan. If you're not able to do so look for a good psychiatrist (because something's wrong with you) or live your sad and lonesome life and play PUBG.

Damn, what a bad argument, I believe that everyone asking for solos and duos are doing it coming from the will to make this game work. For a bunch of people it is just more appealing to play alone, ''just make friends'', such an ignorant thing to say, and believe me when I say it, the only thing I want when making my complaints is that this game gets better, it has great potential, but it won't have a long life without solos and duos.I don't know why they got so triggered about solo play. I think it would be a great addition to the game
- i'm anti social so i play video games
ever heard of friends not liking this game ?
Exactly, either that or they are usually not online when I am. The argument being used against the addition of solos is that the game was made for teamplay. Yes , that's the case here, and they did an amazing job, but just think for a moment, they are up against so many BR projects, and they are up against the most played game in the world to date, which unfortunately is fortnite, it is pretty simple, apex legends is great, but it won't be the main attention of half the market, simply because you don't have the solo option. It is indeed a developer choice, do as you guys see fit, but from my understanding, the game will become a casual, for people to have a little bit of fun when the schedule matches up with friends.
I aprecciate the devs for making this great job, but I kindly ask for solos and duos, I really want this game to be a success, and adding these game modes will only clear the path to that.
How would adding a solo/duo affect you people who don't want it??? Are you all worried about splitting the population between modes? I can't wrap my mind around all you people who are so against it. Dose of reality for you...Games population will diminish quickly without these other modes and then there wont be anyone to queue with in 3-man either. Me personally I play with a 3 man half the time but when friends go to bed It usually ends up with just 2 of us. Playing with a rando every single match and never having them communicate or follow us gets old very quick. It just ends up with me and my buddy vs the rest of the 3 man squads. Nobody in their right mind wants to play that way and it's god damn infuriating.
As for the "squad mechanics" serving no purpose in solo, WHO CARES! The game will play 100% the same solo. You don't need those mechanics.
Play your 3-man mode and shut the * up!
I think it is in part due to the potential slippery slope. Imagine the game features Solo mode and it will became more popular than all the other. The devs would then start to cater to the solo mode while the squad mode would suffer for it. And eventually the game could devolve into just another BR game with nothing that makes it its own.
I am not against them adding it, though I think it doesn't need it.
But I also understand the reason why it wasn't there for the launch was exactly to teach people the point of Apex Legends are squad battles, not solo play. That is the design of it.
If the solo mode was there from the release, many new people would just automatically play it as a default, instead of playing the intended squad mode.
They need to teach people Trio is The Default.
- one of the stupidest thing i ever heard in a long time .
Almost nobody in this country plays video games. They all scroll through facebook until their thumbs get blisters and get drunk in a bar.To all those saying "git frends".
- So much agreed
Solos are also important because new players learn a lot more playing that way.
When you're starting out you engage some guy at 100m and then 5 seconds later a different character appears behind you and shotguns you in the back. The faster players get all the loot and you either have to choose to lag behind them (death) or run with the first gun you picked up with no extra ammo.
Solo lets you pace yourself and learn something from every loss at least. Lets you learn the character skills without compromising your team by accidentally doing something stupid like calling in artillery while having no idea what the AOE is.

This is completely upside down. Experienced players will carry noobs so they can learn without being immediately slaughtered every time. Getting shot from behind while shooting at distance is exactly what happens in every solo BR because there are way more individual enemies which are way harder to spot and track than a few squads which in turn leads to a meta all about stealth.

If you let everyone know you're noob every decent person will be fine with it. As long as you don't do anything stupid like freaking everyone out by test-firing weapons when there's a shooting range for that.
Once again, this solo push appears to be the just about the least rational solution to the problems people deem it would solve.
Don't like playing with randoms? Argue for a better friends system.
Have trouble learning the basics? Argue for a better training mode where you can test every character and all the gear.
There's no need to mutate the game into something it was never meant to be just because you have some specific issues with it.
Don't like team-based games in general and prefer playing solo? Well you're in luck then there's a lot more good solo games out there than team-based, especially single player. I'm mostly a single-player gamer myself and I can't even find time to play through all the good stuff I have in my Steam library (most of it bought on sale) not mention all the new games coming out.
