Every game ends up as a solo game.

As the title states, its near impossible to play a full pub game and still have an entire team by the end.

I know people say “it’s pubs, it’s casual, who cares”, but it does matter. It’s harming the game. New or returning players get a few matches like this and just stop playing because the experience is poor. The amount of games ive ended up just quitting because my teams left and I dont feel like trying to 1v3 all game.

Simple fix: Don’t let players leave until their banner expires + 1–2 minutes after it’s been picked up. If they quit early, give a 30-minute queue penalty.

Right now pubs just feels pointless unless you play ranked. It's just 80% hot drop, die, repeat.

  • After the matchmaking change, Wildcard is too simply unplayable for solo q.

    70% of the lobby is for duos and 3-stacks. It's always the same people.

    I have kills, I have K/D, but I have no wins. It's impossible to win games (maybe one in 50) in this mode in solo q.

    Currently, unfortunately, it's unplayable unless your teammates have 4k20b badges or are current masters.

    Sometimes I don't know what my teammates with badges like 2000 damage are doing in my lobby when they can barely move.

    Whoever is doing the matchmaking in this game is probably not entirely sane.

    Pubs have always been like this, and no one has done anything about it. This game is built exclusively for 3stacks. Year after year, the solo queue in this game seems to be getting more and more worn out. When I once mentioned on Reddit that leaving the game should be punishable, the entire community slammed me. Apex is closed to one group of people, and that's it.

    I'm not even mentioning the rankings, because above diamond we know very well what's going on.

    People have asked so many times for public games, Wildcards, and LTMs in solo q to not look like ranked diamonds or masters. For these mods to be more relaxed. And what? They tightened matchmaking even more.
