like the fact that online forums like this disproportionately select for negative people. You can’t simply assume that a small sample reflects a larger populations without controlling for variations, which you haven’t done. The only thing you know from these forums is that a few hundred people decided to make complaint posts,
And I agree, I would say that the complaint posts in the GD forums are mostly an echo chamber of negativity.
But I would give more legitimacy to the requests for additional features. Even though they have negative undertones, they tend to be more focused on improving the game.
And you are correct, without a control group, it is impossible to determine how shared the opinions are. But here is some of the activity from the last week.
Same can be said for forcing solo players to do content they don’t like, same for forcing PVP to PVE its not enjoyable for anyone. But so far, the solo player has always been forced to do group content to even see the entire lore/story unfold.
The suggestions were that these buffs/items only affect solo content, so questing or world zones, in essence it is no different than what is being currently done in Torghast, it is exactly the same only for world content, it is in no way mandatory less …
My favorite argument against Solo oriented players; “If you play solo, you should play a solo game.” (Or some drivel to that effect). Fine, show me a game that’s got over ten continents worth of exploration and everything that entails, with various different plots and storylines that have been getting added to for the last 16 years (For better or worse), with the ability to create a character race and class that appeals to me, that I can dec out in whatever gear/appearance I want and can collec…
For the life of me I’ll never understand why they don’t add this to torghast. If there were more cool rewards like transmogs and mounts, we’d probably get far less complaints about that place around here.
But mythic plus gear for solo content is a hard no.
You might. But every time Blizzard has tried this, they’re met with howls of complaints that it’s too hard.
Solo players: “We want challenging solo content!”
Blizzard: “Here’s Mage Tower.”
Solo players: “IT’S TOO HARD!!!”
Solo players: “We want challenging solo content!”
Blizzard: “Here are Horrific Visions.”
Solo players: “IT’S TOO HARD!!!”
Solo players: “We want challenging solo content!”
Blizzard: “Here’s Torghast.”

Solo queue doesn’t stop you from playing with your friends, it lets you play when your friends aren’t on. You may just make a new friend you never would have met otherwise.
Originally as in classic where you needed groups to level and raids required 40 people? How does that translate to solo?
It may not have been as group reliant as other games, but it is not a solo game like Skyrim.
Yeah man, soloing should be equally advantageous as the other facets of the game.
Let me solo my gear to ‘mythic’ proportions!!
I could get on the soloqueue train.
I feel like it should have a cap, like 1800 or so, after which if you want to go higher you have to find a group.
Solo-queue’d groups and pre-mades would go into the same queue, so sometimes the solo-queue team is going to get ran over by a pre-made. This has to stay because otherwise you are just diminishing player base for pre-mades to play against because 9 times out 10, people are going to choose the path to least resistance, which will be solo-queue.
T…
Git gud at finding teammates
Blizzard, every competitive game in the world has a ranked solo queue feature. Why don’t you implement one. You already have this option for normal/heroic dungeons and raids, and also arena skirms, so it shouldn’t be that difficult to implement. Just allow the players to choose the classes/specs they would like to queue with in 2s and 3s that are within similar Solo q CR. Also add in a solo queue for RBGs with 1 tank 3 healers and a variety of DPS…
This would be such a good change to the game a…
Which indicates the only reason people put themselves through the system in the first place is the lack of alternatives.
Just heal then? There’s reasons for the lack of healers in arena, i don’t see how this make it any worse.
Who cares lmao.
There’s nothing social about the current LFG tool. Yes, you might meet a decent human being once every 500 games and possibly make a friend, the other 499 times are just misery. That can still happen in SoloQ either way.
They absolutely should be s…
And that’s definitely not all of them, just all I felt like linking before I got bored.
Again, I’m not advocating for solo content…just pointing out that there is a large push for it on the forums.
