You don't want to add solo, because you know everyone will play it

Sorry but i play only duo

Yes, solos.  

But IF no solos, because Respawn made some occult pact never to do solos, then please, please make team play so much better for not pre-filled teams.. It's really necessary.

@HarmoniumxivThey added duos cause the claim was everyone would want it. Now no one plays it. And the thing is it is easier to solo in duo mode than trios. Yet still no one plays it. Why?

Because people dont really want to solo. They like to complain to make themselves feel better. Cause guess what, even in solos the best players still kill them.

This is entirely untrue. Maybe there was a thread of someone asking for duos, but the majority of people wanted Solos. Almost no one asked fur Duos, but they give it, because they are stubborn, and give is a duos as a replacement of solos.

And solos will bring new players, cause there is tons of people that actually play only this mode. 
The main problem with Duos is first - no ranked, second the moment people get down its the moment they insta leave. I can say with 100% sure that people left way way way more in Duos when they are downed, compare in trios. In trios a lot of times they even stay if they are eliminated, not only knocked. While in Duos they aren`t even waiting to get killed, they get knocked, its gone.

As far as solo mode be a campers annoying you, thats nothing new and happen in duos and in trios quite constantly. As well as people sniping you from 100+ meters. But actually it won`t be a factor like in duos/trios, simply because if you are good player you know how to cut the distance to enemy without getting rect. Its 1 people shooting at you, not 3. Should i even mention if you solo queue, you pretty much play solo all game, cause of potato teammates ?

I forget when was the last time i get a good teammates, that not only have done more damage than me, but at least to be close on the cards.

This is not only Apex problem tho. Its pretty much the same in Warzone. Maybe there its actually worst, in Apex there is a slight chance your party to stick with you. In Warzone its all for himself, and they pretty much leave the moment they are down as well.

But at least there you have so many more game modes, you have solo, duos, trios, quads, rebirth resurgence, plunder, and like 10+ more modes coming very soon.

Yeah playing trios with a pre-made is a great experience(still a lot of annoying stuffs like cheaters, servers and so on), but as a solo queue its a nightmare.

As i said Solo is a must, and the game actually need way more game mods, instead of ridiculous useless and no asked for new shiny stuffs they are adding.

"When we introduced Solos as a limited-time mode last year we saw it actually negatively impacted the game, especially when it came to new player retention. We’ve also purposely designed Legends and their abilities to compliment teamplay and squad composition, but when played Solo some Legend abilities become useless. These are just some of the reasons we decided not to include Solos in today’s update."  - EA_David

@Snugglez4u  Honestly I don’t think any of that reasoning doesn’t have easy solutions and I am skeptical of the player loss comments

@brakeitIt is not untrue. People did ask for duos. Respawn play tested both as events and duos was much more successful. They have the data and have stated this.

I want solos so the people incapable as playing as a team have something to play.

Yeah its entirely untrue. They can say whatever they want. They are talking nonseses.
I bust the myth about legends unbalance in solos. There will be way more viable legends in Solos, then they are in trios for example.

Find the thread for it.

As far as duos goes on, i`m here for a long time. You can even check the search button. The request for solos was and still is HUGE, and because they are stubborn and didn`t want to gave us solo, made it like "WE" wanted a duos, and they gave us that mode .... Its 100% untrue.

Apex playerbase is constantly getting smaller and smaller, so this just prove me right, and prove them wrong by saying that Solos negatively impacted the game and new player retention.

This is completely wrong. And i think i explain this very well in my previous post.

Try to argue with anything i said.

Everyone will tell you that you will get better way faster doing 1vs1, Deathmatch, TDM and in modes where you are in constant battles. Especially if you Solo queue player.

I`m a solo queue player. Every single game i get potatos(and its not me, i`m watching ShivFPS and the brain..... teammates that he get its just ridiculous). Just a recent example. Last squad, he kill 1 of them, but Horizon jump on him with no sound and manage to kill him, but ShivFPS shoot him hard and he was low, so he down 1, Horizon was low, and the 3rd was Pathfinder that got nothing, cause he was just respawned and was just punching. And of course his potato team mates was super late, and instead of fight straight away, they decide to loot the BOX, get wrecked and died.

Every single time i need to explain my random team mates what to do, and they still are doing all the wrong stuff.

Tired of carrying every single game. I don`t remember when was the last time someone of my teammates outperform me in terms of damage.

You are saying team game, but there is none. Its not my fault i get teammates that are looting for like 10 minutes, and don`t know how to move properly. We are getting third party, which is obvious from miles, i`m screaming run and regroup 10 seconds before the third party comes and shoot, because i know the game, i know the map, where i`m fighting, the zone i`m fighting and the chance to get 3rd partied, as well as have good game sense and knowledge. I`m screaming run/regroup, but no they are staying, looting, fighting at half hp or lower to a new fresh team - they die, and then scream at me, why i moved. ;D
Sorry but people are leaving this game exactly for this experience. I know so many people that are leaving for that. No friends from my country left to play, and of course i`m forced to solo queue. And of course i deleted Apex Legends, because of the cool experience, as well as few other stuffs.

I still have hope for this game, cause the TTK, and moving, as well as some game mechanics are top notch and you can`t find them anything else, but you are not keeping your playerbase, by just doing shiny skins and things like gold mag that no one ask for.

Look at Warzone, 50 million played the game at its release and then their player base increase to 80million. I know one of the main reason its because its super casual, but they constantly, and i mean constantly add NEW modes people wanted, like solos, like TDM, duos, Quads, rebirth resurgence, plunder, and there is leaks that like 10-13 new game modes are going to be introduced.

This is how you are getting new player base, and retaining your current. I mean come on Quake Champions, an Arena FPS game have like 20 game modes, Apex have 2 ....

On Quake Champions i can practice every mode i want and play with bots if i feel in need to improve, like a Rail Gun only, no problem you have Instagib i want to work on my Target Switching and reacting fast, no problem you have Deathmatch. I want to get fun in team, no problem you have TDM, you have no ability team mode, you have everything.

And you can against players, and against bots.

Apex doesn`t even have a proper Firing Range, when you can train and improve.

Apex is a game where as a game mechanics like Movement and TTK they pretty much nail them perfectly. You can`t get much better than this. Maps are good, there is cover in a lot of places, but its not camper orientated, like Warzone for example. You can move in the open if you know what your doing, unlike in Warzone, there you need vehicle most % of the time.

But legends balance is terrible, new features added to the game is terrible as well.  No need to give us new legend every single expansion, just work and gives a new modes.

As far as legends balance in solos, here is what i have to say about it:

Solved: Lets bust the myth about Solos - Answer HQ (ea.com)

Obviously way more legends are viable for solo, then they are now for trios, and this is a straight up facts.
