@twisted yeah there is no harm at all in catering to ALL PLAYERS and not just people who play with friends.
If they add Solo, it just helps cater to all and lets people enjoy the game that arent necessarily good and want to play at their own pace.
Instead of playing in a team where they either go off by themselves anyway or run in kamakaze and die and spam the ping button non stop because you aren't reving them within 5 secs. Or maybe even get abused because they run in and die and its your fault your not with them even though they went their own way without pinging.
Yep team mode can be so much fun.
Least in solo mode, if i die, i dont have to rely on anyone and its my own fault.
