Solo's Mode, The Good, Bad or Ugly S21 Thread
Ok Legends only a few hours to go, lets share are experiences here about:
What many have been craving to come back or have: The Solo game mode.
Well, well, well…looks like Solos is coming back ...
Forum Discussion
1. We need additional signal for 3rd player(or counter for few of them) entering 50m range.
2. Inability to properly report cheaters(well that's what entire game suffers from) makes mode frustrating. You can't even find player who killed you 10s after death if you din't find him through kill log on purpose. Tons of players today could report cheaters with quality videos recorded via ShadowPlay or analogues, but reports sent via EA Help page is not being really considered(why the f this option even exist then?) Also killcam must capture couple of seconds before moment it starts showing rn.
3. Punishment to the campers must be implemented to avoid turning LTM into some PUBG-like experience. The players staying in the same spot for too long without real activity(fighting, looting, healing etc.) must be hinted to the others more accurate than 50m radius presence warning.
4. SBMM definitely needed.
also all the legends that have passives which work only in Trios/Duos are pretty much useless now (eg. Conduit)
Solos as is , is just not well thought ... ppl soon will start to loose interest bcs of the many flaws the mode has.
Its not a good idea to have the same beta testers over and over again, this only brings a biased input and doesnt reflect the real world as we saw so many times.
I predict the mode to be shelfed, never to be brought up again. most of the famous streamers opt to play ranked , so the mode doesnt even get the exposure i could have had.
I never cried for Solos anyway, so it wouldnt hurt me a lot if it vanishes, but its yet another missed opportunity ... as i mentioned in a post before :
those developer hours would have been better spend on other more pressing issues.
And another respawn statement that didnt age well are the changes for the lootbins (eg. Guaranteed weapons).
i remember this being a huge issue for so many seasons .) , but the statement always boiled down to that it would be impossible to implement ...
Thats why we got equiped with a pistol on drop at one point, which was also scrapped later to protect new players ... an issue which should have been dealt with the Matchmaking to begin with ..
- @r1ggedgame Any legend with abilities based on helping teammates is gonna have a zero pick rate in Solos, for sure. Lobbies will be all Assault and Skirmisher classes.
- @HappyHourSumwur and what legends would that be? the only legend that has a real disadvantage is lifeline because people take her for the revive and even she isnt that bad, a whole carepacket just for yourself... and she is in a state where she is getting a rework anyway so you cant tell me she works perfectly in trios...
conduit? she can perfectly heal herself, sure her passive is not working buuhhhooo , she has a strong kit anyway, doesnt need that passive that doesnt help her fight in trios anyway
i would actually get rid of the respawn and the signal for people in 50m range, but that doesnt change the fact that i like solos, and many many other people too. if you dont like it, dont play it @HappyHourSumwurI won my game with Wattson. I will try to play with others not in those classes just to prove it can be done lol. Mirage is also a decent Solo legend due to his decoys.
@hayhormy mm so far hasn't been terrible. But I'm sure I will have some rough games.
- @Lord_Scorpion34 I actually found mirage was amazing in this. Even the people with pred badges with numbers shoot the decoys. Finally won a game of it.
