Ranked hasnt changed that much except from stupid placement points change so how about you guys make something really different like having a whole rank split that is FORCED solo q for everybody.Even pros suggests this for high tier rank, but no don't listen to them make it for the whole rank experience so it is for everybody, see the pros always only think for themselves.Then your rank split badge could come with something special highlighting the fact it was a Solo q season or split.Talking about badges they really need an upgrade how about adding numbers to the number of times a player hit 2k, 2.5k , 3k or 4k ? It doesnt mean much if that person hit 3k only once in thousands of games that was a badge idea for Apex year 1 or 2.Also how about a Pdr stat instead of Kdr. I noticed I get so many assists per death that my Point Death Ratio is positive.

@Palette24carats "You dont even play it maybe just dont give your opinion we dont care." We all should care about others opinions about the game. We do not have to agree with them and surely we do not need to attack them for being honest. That last sentence of yours IMHO was not cool.

@r1ggedgame About the devs raising their paycheck that is not how it works in this field... it is more akin to Ceo's, some are good to launch a product/business, others good at improving effeciency of ongoing business, others at making a business that is going down go back up again.So these devs just proved what they could do they obviously could get a better paycheck at doing it again somewhere else.

@Lord_Scorpion34 But Duo ranked can solve that problem, we all have 1 friend to play with so we can avoid randoms and lets say you dont at some point you can play a few games with a few different randoms and find one you play well with and continue play duo with him for a while.Other solution is using an app like Plink to find players that have good level and skill. This could also be integrated in the Apex game, Cod has this feature where you can find players looking for teammates live and you can filter by region, by language, by rank.

@Palette24caratsDont you think if Respawn wanted to have fair and balanced matchmaking they would have done it already ?They changed the matchmaking to something even worse than it was before in 2023 despite advertising it would be "better".Hard to believe Respawn didnt know about AA being "op" even before most of the Pro Players moved to Controller, but they led it slide until the big storm was brewing after the R5Reloade stats got released.Ever thought about why most of the OG Devs jumped ship in 2020/21 ? Why should they leave one of the best running Games at that time ?Inst that a good opportunity to raise your paycheck if your brainchild goes through the roof ? Or did they have to leave bcs they could not continue with their vision of the game ?One thing is absolutely certain ... with the people in charge atm (and with that i dont mean the developers ...), nothing will change. That "systematic change" has to come from HR , otherwise the game is doomed.

@Palette24carats Dou ranked is a great Idea. Thanks for sharing it. It would be something different as you say and most people have at least one friend to grind with. On top of that like you say you can also play sometimes with a random. One bad random is better than two bad randoms. The other option you can decide on then is "no fill" and play Solo in Duo ranked since it would not be that huge of a deal. 1v2 is better than 1v3.

Make a whole rank split about solo q for everybody

@Palette24carats I just want Solos Ranked. Period. Would be a better grind than solo queueing in ranked & getting crap randoms 80% of the time.

@Lord_Scorpion34 Not for me I see solo as very boring and selfish. Team play is great abilities are used to their full potential with teammates helping one another with it plus all the revives, respawns. Teamplay is one of the best thing with online gaming I think.

@Palette24carats agree to disagree. I don't mind team play, I play this game obviously, but matchmaking & crap randoms makes things very discouraging. Solos was a breath of fresh air. I'd use it as a warm up or a way to take a break from team play.

I think a lot of people would love if Solos returned permanently but with some tweaks. A Ranked Solos would be even better as team ranked play at times, again can be frustrating. And even if you have friends it's rough cuz you get put in higher lobbies most of the time.

@Palette24caratsWhat is akin for CEO ? Right ... "raising your paycheck" .
From what i heard, some made their own studio "Gravity Well" (which doesnt raise your paycheck if you don't have the next "Tetris" at hand) and others just went mostly to Infinity Ward and Epic at the same position they had at Respawn, that also doesnt raise your paycheck much.
So it is still very odd that so many of the OG Devs jumped ship ... might be other reasons to leave that Company.

@Palette24carats As the only mode? So people who play with friends... no you can't because @Pallette24carets doesn't like it?

@RockDokRock Just for one season because now for 23 seasons solos have been forced to play with randoms against 2 and 3 stacks and the game lost 60% of its player base.
