Re: The abscence of solo mode affects team players

We all have been saying that since the day 1 of this game. 

If you like teams, you are screwed when you are matched with people who don't.

If you don't like teams, you are screwing over other two players when you jump solo.

Nobody wins by not having a solo, and the only argument people give against that is "this is squad based game, that's how it meant to be played" lol 

Like we already had solo and duos, and those mode worked perfectly fine, in fact duo mode was WAY better than 3 people squad, by like a long shot.

Some of us want solo so we can just run around and not worry about anyone else, its good way to practice and get better at certain things without pissing off rest of the squad and adding more toxicity. 

But Respawn knows better what you want to play, so here we are.

    @LactosaFree   @Vladplaya  Lets face it....how often do you actually see a successful solo player? They just spawn in,drop,die,rage quit rinse and repeat.

    Solo droppers do nothing but ruin every ones game purely because of their own ego's. It's pretty annoying stuff.

    We can request permanent solo's for the next year and probably still won't get them unfortunately D:

    Actually I really like playing in a team.

    But with all that leavers and Battlefieldplayers (that only want fast action for 30 seconds) the game is ruined...

    1. MUCH MUCH HARDER PENALTYS FOR ALT+F4 LEAVERS

    2. NO LEAVING POSSIBLE UNTIL ALL TEAMMATES ARE DEAD

    Why?

    Every time you die it has to be a punishment!

    A hard punishment that makes you want to survive longer...

    To survive 15-20 minutes is the goal of the game.

    Only then you have a chance to make it to #1!

    If you bring solo mode now, team mode is dead.

    Because of the leavers it has a clear disadvantage to playing solo...

    Except you fix team mode fast!

    You will never get people to do what you want them to do by adding more punishment, you will just end up with more people leaving to play other games.

    They will be better off fixing that problem by giving more incentive and rewards to those who survive longer. But at the moment, even if you win a match, it feels like not a big deal, which is why a lot of people don't even play with winning as primary objective in mind.

    And solo would kill squad play, because we already had it in the game and there were still plenty of games going on for either mode. Just like in other BR games, people will just play both modes, except more players will be happy for the option to play whatever they feel like.

    YES! Please let them go! They ruin this cool game...

    We don't need them and they are not satisfied by playing Apex!

    They love playing Battlefield (or other FPS with endless respawns), why force them into our system?

    And we love Apex, so why change our system to make them play with us?

    LET THEM GO/ MAKE THEM LEAVE!
