@blkarmphoenix Rude. I know the main post is a bit.....toxic, but there are people out there who don't have friends that play this and/or can't find squads to work with. I'm one of them, and it's frustrating trying to play with randoms all the time, especially when I'm up against teams that are coordinated and can work together: voice chatting and probably know each other vs. some toxic a-hole on my team screaming in my ear that I'm a f****** reta** for not picking him up immediately as he dives in to a team fight all by himself and dies immediately......I have teams muted now because of idiots like that.

And it's not "redesigning" the entire game when literally every other battle royale out there has solo/duo/team modes, and they've had these before for "limited" events, so it's clear that they can do solo mode. It's fun as well, especially when I don't have to worry about downing a guy and having his buddies execute me in the back...

I know this is a very team-based game, with abilities and pinging and stuff like that, but that doesn't mean it has to be squads only 24/7...especially when the game decides to throw me solo without any teammates more times than I can count....always fun when that happens.

@jokool_aidit is a lot of redesign. As the map is now, Pathfinders have a huge advantage over other legends because they can cross over the chasm much easier. Gibraltar is significantly stronger in a 1v1, while Crypto is useless. Current balancing is not good for solo. Pinging, respawning, finishers, quips and voice lines, which give Apex flavor, are useless if there are no teammates. Even SBMM can be thrown off by it.

    @DoYaSeeMe Okay, I see your points. I also didn't think about the SBMM in that regard.... Guess it does make sense to just have them for limited modes to keep that sort of balance.

      Theyve said from day one team game, so if waiting for solo just do us all a favor and leave... 

      And I WILL NOT buy the fact someone cant find people to play with. Theres forums, discord, xbox has a group feature etc etc etc. The game itself lets you invite people youve played  with... if theyre good guess what SQUAD up, add them to your friends list. Its literally the worst excuse for solos!

        @Jem450R Ever played solo or duos at high elo [ranked or normals]? I’m guessing not. SBMM makes playing this game without a team extremely difficult. It just doesn’t work. 90% of the time your random teammates are severely lacking in the required skill to compete. They don’t use mics, zero team awareness, and they can’t aim to save their life.

        I’ve posted on these forums, searched on discord, and posted on the Xbox search features. It’s very difficult to find consistent players that are good enough to play at the Diamond/Predator elo. Most of those players already have teams.

        Adding solos/duos does nothing to your team dynamic. It may extend your que time, but we’ll never know unless they actually add the damn modes permanently. Based off the limited time events I’m guessing the wait would be minimal.
