No Party Trios

I know Josh Medina acknowledged this a while back on Twitter.  Since they won't give us solos, id take non party trios. That way there'd be no two or three stacks and everyone would truly be paired up with randoms.

    @hayhorOr, respawn could just add a waiting map where players can go and kill each other while they wait, like most other games.

    @hayhor No-party Trios would be a separate mode, could just as easy make it into duos mode as well. Arenas never made my normal BR wait time longer, neither has any of the LTM's that have came out since release. This mode would not affect the normal que time.

    @BigMacAttack8u Funny you brought this up. I tried Warzone 2 tonight. Horrific experience. It took 2 minutes to get to the waiting map, which then lasted 30 to 60 seconds. So 3 minutes to find a game at peak times of a brand new game. Then once in game everyone is just hiding waiting for someone to run past. Everyone I tried to engage with ran away. I shut off after 2 games.

    @DankToliet Ok so separate mode. Question- Would you rather just have full on solos? I would rather have that than another BR option. That, gun run and control.
  • @hayhor actually what is missing is CTF or conquest. It is a basic staple of all PvP where two teams of 30 players either capture flags or conquest the all bases on the map. This would work either way - as we have seen in the limited event they called Control. I wonder if it will ever return as a permanent feature?

    I think the "real issue" is head count. If the population trots off to play conquest and no one is queued for the BR and AR, they will be harder to fill with warm bodies. In the end, I suspect they will not make any major changes unless the population grows, but that is the catch 22. The population will not grow when the game stagnates in the swamp of mediocrity.

    @Xubunnytwo Capture the flag may be coming, tho it will be smaller squads than what you mention. As for dividing the playerbase. I disagree. These modes would draw players from other games that don't want to play BR. COD has all the modes plus warzone BR which requires 150 players.
