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 after all! Replacing Duos from the beginning of the season, take on the Outlands by yourself in this revamped variant. We’ve taken aspects of some of our most popular modes and integrated them to keep things interesting: use your Battle Sense to detect nearby enemies, tear things up with pre-kitted weapons and attachments, and keep the fight going with auto heal and Second Chance mechanics. We get it–sometimes you want to drop hot and heavy without having to carry the squad. It’s every Legend for themselves…for now. Solos Takeover is live May 7, 2024 to June 24, 2024.

Solos

Six week Duos takeover 

50 players

Second Chance Respawn

Automatically respawn once if you die in the first 4 rounds

Second chance converted to EVO if unused by the round cutoff

Battle Sense: HUD indicator when enemies are within 50 meters

Auto Heals

Health regenerates out of combat

Auto heal starts after each kill

Additional adjustments to loot pool, circle sizes, and round times to accommodate solo play  

For me so far just looking at the patch notes etc I hope that we have a great playable mode and not the hot mess that happened the last time we had a Solo game mode.

One negative thing that stands out is the removal of Duo's for six weeks, I think that this is a bad move since their are many players that play this mode because they do not have a third dedicated player to play trios with but like the team mechanics. 

Lets see what the mode brings and post here the Good, Bad and or Ugly about it.

    I've started to see the MM issues you guys mentioned more in my solos. Past few games been killed by Preds & Masters, or 20 bomb badges. It's like they have a food chain approach to their MM. Put so many little fish, mid fish & big fish in a game. So final round is most likely big fish unless someone is hiding the whole match.

    @Lord_Scorpion34 The only way I ever got to see low levels in my solos lobby- Die twice really quickly a few times in a row. Basically get 45th or worse. If you finish high every match, even with very few kills, the MM will crush you.
  • @hayhor 1 game I had a kill so easy it had to b either a newbie or bot, but then next fight I had was with a Master & got wiped. And I had a couple other games like that where the 1st fight seemed too easy. Which makes me think it's a mixed bag.
