SOLO Mode! SOLO Mode! SOLO Mode!

I’ll make this short & as nice as possible. Respawn, can we PLEASE get SOLO Mode as a Permanent game mode. I’ve honestly had it with trying to play this game anymore on a regular basis, as it just ...

@SILVERisSORRY I wouldnt play it but I'm all for the option as it would give the people always complaining about randoms another option. Those same people would then say solos is too hard and complain about that too tho. Respawn tested solos and they say the data showed it led to less engagement. 🤷‍♂️

@hayhor Well yeah that kind of summarizes SOLO, of course there is less engagement, you are on your own, so……

…unless you meant engagement as in, attacking other players. 😉

  @SILVERisSORRYI mean engagement with the game. They found people stopped playing the mode quickly. Think about this. With sbmm if you lose enough with randoms eventually the game throws you a bone and gives you a decent teammate or two. That cant happen with solo mode.

    @hayhor I think it would be fine, in duos or trios it’s putting you against people with similar skill levels, so I don’t see how it would be any different in a SOLO mode.
    
    You are still being put into lobbies that prioritize similar skill levels.

@hayhor That was back in S2. The game has changed A LOT since then. They have brought back other modes that weren't very popular either. As I said before if they bring it back now I guarantee you the data will change drastically.

  @Lord_Scorpion34 Yeah, It would be interesting to see how SOLO would do with the new legends and maps, I think the best thing RESPAWN can do is, try new modes as LTM’s first.
  
  With a much larger playerbase than S2, I think it would benefit the APEX community.
  
  It’s just a case of, “trial & error” with any new mode, we can’t know if it will be Good or Bad, until we try it.
