I don’t think competitive should do anything to facilitate solo play, the mode is not just about gun skill but good team play and tactics as well. I really think that all solo players (I am one myself) should LFG if they are expecting to be successful. However, I do think there should be a pinnacle Rumble reward and even a competitive Rumble mode for singles.

  • Competitive solo could eliminate team elements as well as the ever so disheartening " why do I have to play against 4 Luna's in order to get Luna's?" Complaint as well as countless others. I think if the ranking system worked as intended, it wouldn't have as large and negative effect on solo queuers as it does now as well. Playing against not forgotten when you yourself don't have Luna's could be perceived as discouraging. It could be advantageous to add solo queueing and would t negatively effect the people who like team elements of comp, as they could go play in their own playlist. I do however concur that the player base couldn't handle it

  • That’s a fair point but I believe the Luna’s issue is more of a perception problem. There are better team shooting weapons than Luna and although I think it’s the best 1v1 gun all round, it’s not unplayable. I just don’t think solo players, playing a team game mode should be able to obtain the most powerful gear without having to play well as a team. For me, a solo game mode (competitive Rumble) with rewards on the same level as Luna is the most fair way for solo players to achieve high end gear in crucible. Matchmaking for a solo 4v4 list would fill the forums with complaints of players carrying other players on their team or their team mates not being good enough/making stupid plays, it’s a no win situation for Bungie. At least Rumble would mean players can only blame themselves. If they aren’t good enough then they have no excuses.

  • Ive always thought that having OB/Comp be more of a "tab" or "game selection" menus with different options of game type. -clicks competitive/ib tab -screen shows options : comp rumble, comp team "Under Four" queue( still joinable by soloers, teams of 2 and teams of 3) Comp team "4stacks"(teams of 4 only) , and Comp solo queuers. Maybe even add in a random playable comp weekly mode like comp duels or comp showdown, ya know. -Have similar playlist for iron banner and Gambit. With obviously less options.
