I'm seriously getting frustrated from the lack of communication from Respawn and EA. I want to know why SBMM isn't being removed. I want to know why Solos/Duos isn't being added permanently. I want to know why you're not changing back features that fans have constantly complaining.
If you guys aren't doing it, why don't you just blatantly or bluntly say it instead of either vaguely mentioning it or not saying it at all? Where's the transparency?
The fans have spoken.
Buff Evo shields.
Remove SBMM.
Add Solos/Duos permanently.
Change back the inventory update but keep the reduced gernade stacking.
Fix the footstep bugs.
And fix any other issues that everyone's been complaining about for months. There's a reason Warzone is being considered better because CoD actually responds and listens to their community more. I'm being extremely passionate about it! Why the hell is it so hard to just respond and do something or at least just say you're not doing it!?

@RichCarter2021About SBMM, i want them to fix it not remove it. I like enemies that put up a good fight regardless of the outcome, IF i have teammates that know what they are doing and can put one up too. I want SBMM so i no longer get matched with level 20s whose KD/R is still negative (no insult to them, not their fault). Most people i talked about also point to their favorite streamers. Most of them i have little respect for, anyone who starts to flex and starts talking mad * about others after killing some disorganized randoms who clearly installed the game 20 min ago in a trio only to throw salt or even report virtually all squads that beat them are pathetic and sadly that makes easily like 95% of Twitchies.
Also solos isnt nearly as good even as an LTM as everyone makes it out to be. Most legends are unplayable due to team based abilities and i could bet your lifes work on people crying about how their 2nd chance abilities arent powerful enough and gold knockdown shields be base since they cannot blame their team anymore.
Solos will show everyone how unskilled and whiny everyone is and there will be a massive increase in tears since there is no denying that most who blame their teams that much just suck.

@RichCarter2021I agree that lack of communication hurts, theres literally no communication except once a month they fix a few bugs and leave us to suffer until the next month only to find the issues that we want to be fixed are still being ignored
I really don’t want to quit apex because I enjoy the legends, gun mechanics, maps, lore, streamers Ive grown attached to after watching countless videos from countless streamers like staycation, lord spink, kobi, diego, ilootgames, sethlyy, quakev, zeus, etc but Im just at the point that Im unable to play this game for more than 30 minutes and im gone and choosing another game to play because Im sick of the lack of solos more than anything, some days I just don’t want to play with other players and other days I do but after a few trash randoms Im done with that and ready for solos... i tried staying loyal to this game because I love it but it brings me more stress than anything else lately so I went from playing 8-14 hr days to 30 mins or less maybe 1-2 hrs max but as soon as my dailys are done Im usually logging off as fast as possible... I will be downloading warzone tomorrow to give it a shot as it atleast has Solos... It hurts to quit playing as I was improving alot on apex after I started solo dropping or just doing my own thing I have been getting more kills and even won a few games as kill leader on most legends, some legends multiple times even

@BigBlackCaustic Yeah, I understand that SBMM should be more so fixed. Granted I do feel guilty absolutely destroying lower level/worse players. The problem with SBMM is that it feels like SBMM isn't actually there. I don't feel equally matched, since I'm having more difficult games. Maybe that's my fault, I don't know.
On Solos, I completely understand how some Legends would be extremely pointless to play as (Like Lifeline), but every legend is still SOMEWHAT useful in some situation. Obviously there will be lots of Pathfinders flying around. But the complaints about Solos is from what you explained: they can't blame anyone but themselves anymore. And that, in my opinion, is not really a good reason to not add Solos. But I can definitely see people suddenly seeing Solos as bad because they can no longer blame anyone. And that's a good thing, because that means there'll be people playing Squads so there won't be people waiting too long on one queue.
@FaIIenAngeI777 I feel your pain. I'm also losing interest in the game unless I'm playing with friends, and I have spend money on this game and I told myself that I will continue to play so I can get each Battle Pass for free. But so many times Apex frustrates me and the lack of transparency or willingness to do what the fans want sucks. You'd think they improve this disrespect after the Iron Crown event fiasco.

@RichCarter2021As much as the game frustrates me I will probally do the next seasons battlepass aswell but probally won’t play anymore once this seasons is completed and just log on long enough to check the exclusives or for events and log off
The Iron Crown Event was my favorite Event between Solos and the nice skins, also the only event in apex history to give 2-3 free apex event loot packs for those of us who don’t dump $200 each event
Shadowfall was literally a nightmare, I enjoyed the solo part but that whole game mode encouraged camping because everytime you even attempted to kill someone zombies would skydive to your location and punish you... ive been feeling the same way about Fortnites Team Rumble since they added deathmarkers It just feels like a punishment especially when your team is like 8 players and the other team has 15 still before deathmarkers I was getting alot more kills without dying as much but now it just gets frustrating you kill someone then have 3-4 firing at you instantly...

Solos and Duos will just be full of people who'll team up to get into top 15 and then fight amongst themselves everytime stacking wins. So, adding that permanently is simply a bad idea. Plus half of the legends are made for teamplay so using them in solo would suck badly. I have experienced * in both events and I do think it'll be a terrible idea to add permanently, not that it'll be no fun to play with people teaming up, it'll also take away people from normal apex and ranked games making us queue for insane period of time.
The inventory change is a must, they must take the inventory back to its former glory. Now people just play so defensively instead of attacking, everyone fears to run out of vitalities and ammos. Plenty of instances in past two weeks showed me how teams camp literally 20m away from a fight. I have lost atleast 8-10 matches where we fought the 3rd team and then while we were out of ammo and with 50 hp the last team who saw us fight and was camping 20m away charged on us. Previously there would have been enough heal and ammo to fight the last team but now with 60 ammo a stack it's just impossible.
Matchmaking system needs to be improved, atleast teammates should be assigned in some order. I'm dead tired while getting assigned to teammates who have no clue what/where/when to do.
Also, what is there to buff in Evo sheilds? They were a cool event item but I personally wouldn't enjoy adding them into normal games since a Gibby is already hard to tackle atm and with extra sheild in evos gibby will become invincible.

Solo drops are cool and all but then again not. When i go to a streamers channel and see he has dropped solo to get kills for "Content" as they claim i die laughing. This is what kills team played games. The streamers thinking their stream wants to see them be the most horrible team mate on the planet not helping his team. So when i go to streams like this i am sure to let them know how trash they are for leaving their team behind for this so called "content". I look at Poolshark audi and soltek type streamers who stay with their teams who do what the game is intended on doing. Those are our real content makers. Now I am not talking down on anyone who solo drops but I may think you are a horrible team mate in a team played game if all you are worried about is a petty badge.

@E9ine_ACIm not sure who this content even appeals to except for kids marinated in energy drinks, a tough fight in a squad is very entertaining to watch, even when you are the one who is downed and that random you thought sucks just jumps in and rips the enemies so many new a**holes they end up looking like cheese graters.
Then again they may aren't even humble enough to even have a teammate a bit of glory and credit cause the spotlight was stolen for a second.

Yes, solo play kills games and probably is acceptable when you with 700 kills got paired up with 0 kill guys who won't drop till your squad is last remaining in the dropship. Those situations are perfect for solo playing but otherwise I'll prefer Apex to remain team based gameplay, the matchmaking and teammaking system should definitely be improved otherwise the modes are fine atm. Introducing solos brings serious * with them including teamed up games which will ruin experiences for players like me and another major problem will be queuing, since solos will be easy to start and quit the other modes will take long time to start up a game.
