How many are solo tacticians? How many prefer to strategize in a squad?
I solely prefer to help out the team by being solo. Does anyone else prefer solo? |

I like to solo more but do team up quite often. When I'm teamed I'm mainly doing AV though. Solo I'm doing AV and Assault. |

Solo. I've done worse in every squad I've been in. And if I am not doing very good, then my whole team is worse off.
I owe it to my team to play in the manner which is most effective for me. |

Depends on my mood. If I'm looking to socalize then squads are far better for it. If I'm looking to just knock games out for quick ISK or SP then solo works better. |

I used to be solo about 90% of the time in Chromosome and prior, it's my preferred playing style. But playing solo now is mostly an unbearable experience, just so much team stacking going on now with 6 members squads. Even 4 player stacking in previous builds was enough to unbalance the heck out of a match, but now it is much much worse. I usually get a few decent matches when I first start out in a night, but after those few matches, the unbalance kicks in and makes the game 100% miserable. At this point I am forced to join some squad and ride out the rest of my night. Sometimes it is real fun, but it is such a crap-shoot who sends me an invite when I lfs. I absolutely hate this inconsistency.
I keep hoping CCP will pull their heads out and give the players squadless options for all modes. Let players who want to play solo play against other solo players. And let players who want to squad play against others in squads. It's win-win, as players in squads enjoy a challenge, which can't be had if they are pubstomping a team of randoms. And solo players enjoy a good 1v1 and balanced teams, which can't be had when the 6 player blob-squad is rickrolling around the map hugging each others arses.
When I play solo and there is no team stacking (random teams on both sides), matches are a blast and pretty evenly balanced. Fun rivalries are formed, as when joining match after match you usually always end up against/with the same people over and over and over. With random teams this is fun, but when facing stacked squads this makes the game unplayable. As they keep showing up match after match.
TLDR;
Would be soloing most of the time if squadless options were available. But due to squad stomping, I am forced to join squads to have a remote chance of enjoying myself in pub matches. |

A "Squad" don't wins a battle, the "Team" wins the fight. Squads that go "Solo" and ignores the rest of the "Team" don't contribute to the victory...But the "Lone Wolf" that helps all of their Team mates, Squad or not, have a significant impact in any battle. |

Used to be a team player, now all my old friends from closed beta are all quitting. Now I'm a solo player, if I even play, too many new FINISHED games to waste my time and money on this. We've been asking for a trading system for over a year and they give us a isk transfer system, well ccp close but no cigar, this is not what we've wanted. Well until I see real changes ill be showing my disapproval with my wallet, and this is coming from someone he has put over 100 into dust in the last 6 months alone. Congrats ccp you've lost another long time player, maybe ill see you on ps4, unless Sony decides to count their loses and walk away. |

Good thing dust doesn't require any money to play.
Edit - Solo and teams. depends on mood. Sometimes i enjoy wearing cheap suits and ramboing null cannons near the enemy mcc. |

Actually... almost every game in the market is Free to play online, after you buy the original copy of the game. Is only few subscription games left, and most of them have change to the much more "profitable" F2P model. |

Solo here. Just wish I could try more weapons haha, damn skill points.
I get squad invites every now and then but not really sure if it's worth it since I don't use audio so like running in a squad I'd have to guess or just try follow them, not sure if it's worth it.

Most of the time, but not every time. It wouldn't be a FPS if that was the case. I've personally seen 1 or 2 players change a game around. I've changed some games around. 1 person opening up a cru or 2 can **** up a well organized teams day.
This is what I love about FPS. Your either a GOD or Not. FPS teams HOLD OR SHRINK by their GOOD PLAYERS. Team of scrubs are still scrubs. |

I useally always run Squad. if im running solo its to test a fit or cause I don't have a lot of time to get into one.
Thankfully 99.9% of the squads I roll with are awesome people and we have a lot of fun tearing it up.
so I prefer squads! |
