It's getting to be a t-shirt with me: "I'm glad if other people like it, but...."
I know I openly championed the return of solos, and I AM glad it's back. But this definitely isn't at all what I pictured. The entire game type is skewed toward gunplay and away from the things I like most about battle royale, like looting, positioning, working the clock, etc.
Whoever said that the mode maybe needs smaller maps didn't, apparently, notice that the map IS smaller. Significantly smaller by starting with a half-closed first circle. Like dropping cool and taking your time to find the right gear? Not here, my friend. Grab whatever you can and run for the first close. Forget trying to pick good position. There aren't any when the game tells everyone where everyone else is. It's just target practice for the players with the best aim. A-hem.
Oh, and the respawn mechanic. I disliked it when the game launched. I hated it when it became "respawn with shield and weapon." And I hate it here even more. "Hey, aimbotter who just killed me? Want another try? Here I come!" Yeah, good times.
If there's any good news here it's that the developer listens to what players think they want. Well, I think I want a single player PvE game mode. Anyone listening?

- @reconzero I only dislike 2 things so far-
The indicator there's an enemy within 50 meters. I've always hated mini map markers. I feel like this is because they know people with no or poor headsets will get mad.
The MM. Every death is a sweat lord with badges I could never get.- @hayhor
"they know people with no or poor headsets will get mad."
Generous. I would have said, "people with no awareness or game sense."- @reconzero I found that guy last night. He was a bloodhound. I was coming to a new building with a hole through the middle and got the "enemy within 50m warning". As I approached I could hear him inside so I took the roof and peaked through the hole. He was still looting. Was the easiest beam of my life. Zero awareness even with a bright red warning!
