We need squad-free modes.

The imbalance isn't as insane as it was pre 1.4 matchmaking, but it is getting dangerously close and grows worse each day.

Let solo play against solo, and let squads play against squads.

Why have I seen these threads...? Take squad play out of the squad shooter....? Only snipers want this.

It would be stupid with the new TACNET changes. It would be stupid for support classes. It would be stupid for anyone who fights at longer ranges who need their squad spotting other targets. It would be stupid for vehicle classes who need squad based infantry support to take out AV.

Just no. The answer for getting beat because you are running solo isn't to make a solo play mode, it is to make friends and run with them. Figure out how to be a part of a team.

Ah I see, so Dust is a hardcore team-playing game only. Don't have a try-hard 24/7 crap-in-a-pot basement dwelling team full of freaks to watch your back? Prepare to lose, hardcore style!

Yup sounds like a winner to me Roll

If I feel like squading up, I can do it 24/7, the amount of LFS and RFx etc etc in my corp is enough to keep me in a squad till the end of time. But you know, would be nice to be able to play without having to deal with other squad members, heck maybe listen to a little music and try to relax while playing? Or should we all be force fed social interaction just to have a chance at fair and balanced gameplay?

Modern infantry realize that covering ground on foot in unfamiliar, exposed, and unsurveilled terrain can be instantly deadly. DUST is becoming like this. Share your thoughts about engaging with your squad with specialized tactics and formations.

I'm a fairly introverted person, but I don't have any idea of what you can possibly lose by putting squad on mute and just generally doing your own thing. The only way they would be annoying is if they do a game mode that you don't want to. In which case you just find a squad ahead of time to go with that is doing what you want to do.
Surt gods end Demon Ronin 1004	Posted - 2013.09.09 13:54:00 - [10] - Quote was in a squad that got OB. so guy calls it right on top of me as I'm dueling with a heavy. Me and him are darting out of cover, and blasting each other. till squad mate called that OB and almost got me killed by throwing off my aim! You ever been in a friendly OB strike? whole screen shakes! I called him a S.O.B. and that I could have died. But heavy decided to run in for the kill, and I switched to my shotty. Bet he was surprised from me going smg to shotty. lol

You dont have to be that social, there is a way to work as a squad without having mics. As long as you stick together and watch your backs and corners; actual squad combat doesn't require any talking at all. Its all about situational awareness. You should learn it instead of QQing all the time.

Or, you know, squad with people from Hellstorm. That's another possible option. I mean, you're in the Corp. Why not play with people from it?
