Henchmen21 Planet Express LLC 508	Posted - 2014.02.02 14:25:00 - [31] - Quote I always run solo. My 1.7 fits generally run between 40-60K, with either a CR or a plasma cannon. Always run with AV nades and either prox mines or RE's. I don't like open mic's so I run solo so I don't have to bother with having my channel open. I do good or bad depending on what side of the rout I am on. I'd probably feel guilty running with a squad after having been constantly put against stacked squads and knowing that it feels to get stomped. Henchmen21: Infantry Gotyougood Ufkr: Vehicles
Insufficient Data 0uter.Heaven Ishuk-Raata Enforcement Directive 12	Posted - 2014.02.02 14:39:00 - [32] - Quote I run solo sometimes, but in the past I ran solo a lot. Sometimes playing solo is a burden as you can only hope the other 15 players know what to do in certain situations, and how you as a soloist can help achieve chaos, victory, or defeat. As for fits again it depends on the map and my team when I run solo. It usually goes 5-8 sec uplinks first, Nanohives near AoI, Scans, LV5 hacks for 4 sec hack, Pro AV, Logi rep, revive, Tank, and my favorite Jihad Jeep. Im a Tickle My Null-Sac at heart. XD Also beware the Jolly and Noob (b^_^)b

Tebu Gan Dem Durrty Boyz Renegade Alliance 520	Posted - 2014.02.02 14:52:00 - [36] - Quote I always see posts that say, well GRAB a squad mate then and quit QQing. I always liken that to the extrovert that tries to make you feel bad or feel as if something is wrong with you. ASSHOLES. Anyways, yeah, solo. I spent the first few months of this game doing just that. I STILL ******* hate talking on comms. Not only do I feel weird talking through a headset, my GF always gives me a WTF is wrong with you look. Wish they had a teamless game mode, where all the soloists could get together. Nuff Said

In fact I can't even stand playing with people I don't know, I'm introverted to the max I know but meh! I can agree with this, doesn't stop me from doing either though. I've got a couple of regularly active corpies, I play with them whenever they are on. When they're not, I will generally solo or start a squad which is usually named "Looking for Heavies....". I am not always quick enough with the queuing for most though, so I am usually running solo even with a squad ad in the squad finder. I run Logi 90% of the time, depending on if I have squad mates will determine if I have PRO or ADV Equipment fitted. Those times where I am not logi, I am mostly running Assault, sometimes scout, it all depends on how I feel and how the match is going.

Patrick57 Fatal Absolution 4584	Posted - 2014.02.02 14:55:00 - [39] - Quote I solo about half the time. I go into Dominations, lay down 6 Uplinks in a high spot (the building with the square hole on the Gallente Research Facility is usually where I pick) then switch suits to either a rep tool or a Combat Rifle. My normal payout for a good match like that is 300-400k ISK.

soulreaper73 PFB Pink Fluffy Bunnies 703	Posted - 2014.02.02 16:01:00 - [51] - Quote [quote=Waiyu Ren]I'm curious to see how many other people consider themselves primarily "soloists". Also, what peoples favorite suits and fittings are for that style of play. Personally, at the moment my favorite solo fit is a very un-Bro Gal logi with junky equipment and a bargain basement price tag. Another favorite is a Gal assault with a mix of damping and regen modules, although white is a very bad colour for trying to be sneaky in... [/quote You keep playing solo too much and you will go blind.

Justice Prevails 167	Posted - 2014.02.02 16:31:00 - [53] - Quote Solo 99 percent. Everyday I tell myself to join a corp but cant seem to pull the trigger when I turn on the game. Guess i have social anxiety. Anyway, have become very self sufficient. Dren scout- haul a** to middle objective drop uplink, hack obj. Dren Heavy- defend objective/ Forge gun for Av(though i suck) My cookie cutter assault fit for everything else. Though I am solo, team comes first. Always wear a mic and will relay intel. Just not sure if anyone is listening. Feel I would lose a lot of freedom if joining a squad, would be compelled to follow them anywhere. Great job, team. Head back to the MCC for debriefing and cocktails.
VALCORE72 NECROM0NGERS The CORVOS 25	Posted - 2014.02.02 16:35:00 - [54] - Quote i solo alot . dren gear mostly . befor ambush was broke its all i ever did . ive got 62000 kills in 9months . had a bad start so my k/d is not the greatest . 2'05 workn on gettn it better
Smoky Fingers Red Star. 264	Posted - 2014.02.02 17:11:00 - [55] - Quote Usually solo, unless I get an invite from the corp mates when I'm not taking a kitty kat nap because my kitty kat napping is always priority. I only actively partake in matches in which my team actually tries other than that I play for schittsngiggles. My current fotw is heavy sub machine gun with sidearm mods, and fotm would have to be gorgon missile tower offense. Sorry to those in dom thinking that the null cannon is backfiring on them, look up next time. Apprentice forum warrior 4hire
Ghermard-ol Dizeriois Maphia Clan Corporation 140	Posted - 2014.02.02 17:39:00 - [56] - Quote I play solo most of times, for 2 reasons: 1)very limited waiting between a match and the next one 2) if I don't like where I start playing, I can exit without praying everyone does the same If you are an hacker, a cheater o a glitcher, you deserve death. In real life.
Baron Mingus Algintal Core Gallente Federation 3	Posted - 2014.02.02 17:59:00 - [57] - Quote Yup, 100% solo. Mainly, I just don't like scheduling time to play with people, and like to get up and come back at my leisure(without pissing people off). I do try to be team oriented though, as all my builds center around drop uplinks, mainly keeping them up and in useful locations.

Not only do I feel weird talking through a headset, my GF always gives me a WTF is wrong with you look. Wish they had a teamless game mode, where all the soloists could get together. That is actually part of the reason i made this thread. "Get gud, squad up"..... Usually from the mouths of the same people that just finished saying "Sandbox game: I do what i want". Solo players have a role to play. It may just be a coincidence that two full sized q-synced squads leaves four open slots on a team, but maybe it isn't.... Loners are the water warriors, we take whatever form we need to in whatever situation we find ourselves in. And quite frankly, sometimes that wins games. When the reds push hard and all uplinks have been found and squashed except mine, which is sitting in an obscure spot halfway between two objectives well away from the main fighting, suddenly the flow of the match changes. Two objectives going blue, then a third shortly after... Their momentum is lost, and ours builds. Squads don't win matches, Teams win matches. Just because i'm not on a squad, it doesn't mean i'm not a team player. That said, if and when PvE rolls out, i'll probably disappear into it and never be seen again..... Shouting doesn't make your opinion seem more valid, it just makes you seem more annoying.
