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...
You must get extremely lucky and play with the nicest and smartest people ever! The first couple weeks I had SOME ok teammates or was just up against people learning the game as most people were. Since then, MAYBE 10% of the time (that's being generous), I will get LUCKY and have teammates that don't die literally the very first fight we get into. I'm not a GREAT player but I am good and use strategy and skill. I almost never try to be the first to engage a fight unless I know I have a clear advantage and/or my teammates are close by. I have been brought back to life literally one time ever when playing with randoms. I'm a level 51. I can count on one hand (I may now need a 6th or 7th digit to count) the amount of times my teammates have done better than me when solo queueing. Maybe I am just realllllyyyy unlucky? Sometimes I will get nice teammates and people that mark items and such but that does not help them when it comes to fights. Either way, your experience seems very far off of mine. I love the game and the combat. I hate having no skill based matchmaking. This game, like overwatch, needs skill based matchmaking. And/or a solo and/or duo mode. I'm fine going up against skilled players when it's one on one. Having to rely on bot teammates against any even decent, not even good, 3 man queued squad is frustrating. Having to have friends on every time I want to play is also not an option everybody has all the time. If they want to people of all skill levels to hop on, play whenever they want and HAVE FUN they need to implement at least one of the things I mentioned.
Thats a real selfish attitude and quite a presumption.
I would like to vet players before I play with them. I want to play with people of my level. I'm not here to socialize, i just want to compete on even playing field. I went to the lfg forum. only two people replied, one of them sucked and one is never online.
I think we should be able to stay in same team with people we have a good match with. rather then automatically disbanding us. And also be able to add friends with a click from in the game. Not having screenshot peoples names, go to desktop and go to origin try to type their name and search someones profile. thats crazy.
At least keeping the group after a match we can play a couple more matches and really see if its someone we like to play with.
Most of my friends don't pc game. I'm American!! The pc gaming industry died over a decade ago. they probably wouldn't know wtf apex legends even is. Its not like I'm in school or college where everyone is playing this on xbox lol.
And with so many bad games. lets say I get one good match out of 30. Those people may not be looking for people to play with. They leave the match before I even have a chance to ask sometimes.
And as far as discord goes. I really don't think I should have to install a 3rd party tool, so even more trolls can be hacking my pc. Its 2019, discord is a huge security risk. What channels am I supposed to go to? I never even used discord before. I'm from teamspeak and ventrilo times lol. I'm supposed to put my pc at risk because the game doesn't support matches based on skill ranking?
