I'm enjoying solo's but it's definitely a different dynamic, gonna put this in a list of positives and negatives.
Positives -
- Better loot overall due to less clutter and more available loot for one person
- Easier to get a 4-8 kill game on the regular
- More 1v1 fighting, allows you to practise that side of things
- No random teammates to worry about
- Player choice of where to land
- Ring highlighted at the start of the game to persuade people to drop in a certain area and increase opportunities for fights
- Ability to choose whatever legend you want
- Shorter more fast paced gameplay
- Actually feels quite balanced
Negatives -
- More people playing defensively and camping to avoid being shot in the back
- I mean have you been shot in the back when you think you're being sneaky? Scares the living bejeezus out of you.
- No team support
- Much harder to loot up after a fight
- Some legends lose some of their utility
- Harder to get high kill games due to how fast everyone gets eliminated by other people
I know I've probably missed some things but that's what I can think of right now. There doesn't seem to be too much of a callout for balance which I think is a good thing. I don't think the game should be changed too much specially for solo's, it's a fun thing that people can do when they're playing alone, and it's a good way to practise without letting your team-down. It seems Respawn are open to it being in the game full-time as well, which I was against before, but after playing both modes since I don't think it would change the game dynamic too much.
