I don't believe anyone here is talking about playing all by themselves-yet running into people on their teams that do. I solo que pretty much 99% of the time except for that occasional bit when I manage to jump into a team with a friend.
I don't have issues unless I have those kinds of players on my team and unfortunately it's alot.
Though personally I do think they need to bring back solos for those players, especially since they're apparently putting it in the mobile version and because again, it shouldn't be an issue to want to play by yourself yet on Apex it is because we aren't given an appropriate playing ground to do so, so it leaks into the team modes.
I've tried no fill solo quing on duos and I absolutely hate it, I'm already at a disadvantage for not being that great, but now even more so because I don't have a teammate. It's kind of stupid.
They're expecting everyone to play to this bs team concept idea, and it's just not happening because Apex is a game and people want to play it their way, and they're very limited to where they can play.
Fixing MM is a must and would defiantly be a start to fixing the issue as it would sort out the players who leave because they don't want weaker teammates vs the ones leaving just because they don't want to be on a team.
A permanent solo mode would get those kinds of players out of team lobbies and the rest can be reported and held accountable for game throw because with the appropriate options to play alone, there's no excuse for that kind of behavior on a team setting.
Suggestions are always appreciate it, but I feel that in the case of the solo quers issues, alot of it comes from people where team finding isn't a good solution for them, otherwise, they'd have already done it. It is a very simple solution and pretty well known after all. It's unfortunate but some solutions just don't work for everyone.
Thanks for the reply and a very nice post you put together there.
Yeah maybe EA/Respawn does need to give that old solo play mode another chance. Maybe bring it back as an LTM and see what the results are and if they are positive for the players and EA/Respawn then maybe make it a permanent option.
However I do believe that when the event ran for the first and last time there was a lot of issues. Rampant teaming, a lot of camping until last circle and totally random end circles because of that. Some legends abilities are also pretty much non-viable in a pure solo mode, Mirage's passive, Lifeline has no one to res, etc because a lot of the legend abilities work best in a team format. Yes a lot of the others can use abilities for self benefit and are still viable.
Maybe EA should give it a try though.
With all that in mind I played the solo mode back then and it was just a total sweat fest or a total sneak and peak camping trip. The third party was worse, if you got unlucky there was no teammate to res you or respawn you, Snipers were def a thing. That mode was very unforgiving and seemed that you spent more time loading into a game than actually playing.
But that is just my take on it.
Again many thanks for your well thought out reply and kudos to you for your points of argument.
Happy Friday.
