Dumbest idea ever, no one with skill wants to be stuck with 3 randoms every match. What you want is comp FFA. Which is also a dumb idea. Anything competitive worth is team based or at least duos. Communication is key in high level play in separating those with skill and strats to those that don't have either. Make friends or play a solo game. Quit trying to ruin a MMO with your solo mentality. [quote]ALSO, UPVOTE SO BUNGIE STAFF CAN SEE THIS!!![/quote] Running a solid 0 right now, looks like everyone is on board...

  • Communication skill and mechanical skill are very different in what they bring to the table. Obviously having both is much better than having either, but you can easily still have anything be competitive without it being fully team-based. Players of different kinds exist in every field of competition, some people are average in mechanical skill but great at reading a field or predicting the enemy, others are awful at call-outs but are slaying machines. The "solo mentality" is perfectly reasonable in a mmo and shouldn't be shunned, I enjoy the genre and more than often play alone and have fun with the challenge in certain respects. Furthermore, some people are naturally more social than others and it isn't to bash someone who is shy for playing a game they find entertaining that happens to be a mmo. Now I don't necessarily agree with the OP here, I agree with the sentiment but I see it would be hard to split the playlist with just a "Team" and "Solo" option (trios are the biggest issue here), the playlist would have to block trios because it couldn't organize the teams, that's where solos come in to fill gaps. I think things should just stay the way they are, let the solo players take the challenge they have, and if they struggle then do something like I did which was to better myself at the game as well as finding people I played well with.

  • The only people who want things to stay are the people with 3 dumb friends who still play this game because they cant win without a team

  • There will still be a competitive team lobby. So, there would be two lobbies. Finally, we can then see which teams are the best. I mean, how can you say your team is good if you are constantly playing against a bunch of solo players. TEAMS SHOULD PLAY AGAINST TEAMS, SOLO PLAYERS SHOULD PLAY AGAINST SOLO PLAYERS. AM I WRONG? Also, if there were two lobbies, we can have a real ranking system for teams.

  • Yes you're wrong. Solo players should make friends while playing within a MASSIVE MULTIPLAYER. Teams do play against teams, that's what every game should be. The real issue is with all of the solo cue players. There should be no way to cue if you have less than 4 people. How about that solution?? Make friends or no comp. We want comp to be fair after all right?? It is a solution!!!

  • No one should be forced to do anything, players play the games they do because they enjoy them, and for many different reasons in addition to that. Just because it is a massive multiplayer does not mean you need to play with others. For some content? Yes, naturally, that is the challenge of solo ques many times is to grind to a place you can overcome other activities (outside of raids etc). Every game should most certainly not be a team based game, that would be awful as to the enjoyment of different game genres and stories. I'm not saying here that I agree with the OP here, though he is much more understanding of others than yourself as he is attempting to open options rather than close them. It would be interest I think to see a team mode that is flexible as in pitting duos against duos, trios against trios, quads and quads, and leaving solo to be rumble I guess. I prefer the way things are now, it is the challenge of playing alone.

  • And you are not forced to play competitive.

  • So because no one is forced to play competitive then competitive should be restricted to teams of 4 only? Why isn't quick play locked to teams of 6? As I've said I prefer the way things are now, solo players put a challenge on themselves, and during my climb to lunas I knew it wasn't a good idea to continue alone so I made friends after games to create some pick up teams, I don't think bungie should cater towards teams only or having to create more playlist for solo players as that would be very inefficient and messy, I just disagreed with someone's very passionate response to locking competitive to teams only, I understand it was a retaliatory response to someone asking for a solo playlist but I was surprised at the aggression seeing as how the people in favor of a solo playlist want "more options" and want to keep a playlist for teams too, not shut down having fireteams
