Apex Legends players admit devs were right as Solo mode gets ruined RespawnDespite many calling for Solos to return, the Apex Legends community has now come to realize why the devs have been against bringing the mode back for a long time. The temporary return of Solos mode was supposed to be an exciting moment for the game\u2019s playerbase, that is until the issues of teamers and cheaters became rampant. Now, Apex Legends fans are facing the music, as they have discovered that the devs may have been right to keep Solos away. Though they claimed they\u2019d never be bringing solos back as recently as January 2024, the mode came back \u2013 it\u2019s already being ruined by the playerbase. Even with the mode set to disappear soon, players want it gone immediately. In one Reddit post, a user shares a video of their character dealing with a group of teamers, a term that refers to players who band together in a free-for-all game mode. As the player mentions in their post: \u201cThe first time I saw it, I thought it was funny, but now it\u2019s annoying. I\u2019ve seen it 5 times this season\u2026\u201d Another post on the subreddit shows a glaring example of cheating, as they spectate a player who lands every shot without even aiming before eventually winning the match. These two videos are just a couple of examples of the state that Apex Legends\u2019 Solos is in, and it\u2019s showing fans why the devs were hesitant to bring it back. As one user explains: \u201cI think this is the main reason why the devs didn\u2019t want to return the solo mode for a long time. Now we have it as proof or something like that.\u201d In fact, Respawn discussed the issues with Solos in a January 2024 Game Informer interview. In it, Lead Legend Designer Devan McGuire explained how playing alone went against the game\u2019s philosophy, saying \u201cA single character should never be the answer to every problem. They should be part of that team dynamic. That\u2019s what creates interesting strategies in the game.\u201d It appears that many Apex Legends players are now understanding Respawn\u2019s line of thinking, as one person explains, \u201cI was happy for Solos and was hoping for it to be permanent too, but I want Duos back\u2026\u201d Another fan claims they would even \u201cpay so much money\u201d to be able to play Apex Legends without any cheaters. Fortunately for these people, Solos will be leaving Apex Legends very soon, but the whole experience has left many of them with a rude awakening: The devs were right all along.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
