anyone whos playing solo.

this is for anyone whos playing this game strictly solo. is everything doable without u wanting to scratch ur hair out? iv heard how grindy this game is which is ok as long as the difficulty spike isnt ridiculous for a casual gamer. iv played a lot of warframe before all solo a little co op. yes there was some missions that were just ♥♥♥♥♥♥ to play solo but it was generally doable. iv only played like 3 hours already uninstalled it twice because the game disconnected me twice in the middle of a boss fight. im thinknig about giving this a 3rd and final try but i just wanna know some thoughts about solo exp!

No. Many of the defense missions for example are near impossible solo.

yeah i got that impression literally one of the defense missions in the first area i died and was overwhlemed was not fun at all... maybe because im trash at games but yeah... thanks anyway

Honestly, ever played Warframe? The difficulty seems to be about the same. Having a team is definitelly the faster and more optimal choice, but as far as I've got, solo works just fine, as long as you plan a little. Would recommend a team for the bosses tho, it just flat out talkes too long otherwise.

Edit: Defense missions are not impossible solo by any means. Just have to have a chaacter that can handle defense in the first place, okay level and build and play it safe.

Especially if you play Bunny character that is extremely squishy in any battles let alone solos.

I've done everything solo so far. Granted I'm level 21. I play a SMG Viessa. Bosses take some slight positioning to beat but nothing too impossible so far imho. Idk if things get harder later on. Hopefully they do so upgrading equipment and modding properly will be relevant even while leveling.

Hardest thing in this game so far is playing it for longer than 5 minutes without crashing to desktop. lmao

Very difficult to solo, it is possible of course but this game is designed as co-op. Which is why it's strange that hard mode has public matchmaking disabled it's friends only from what I hear

That ones double rough for solo because you have no mods or quality weapons yet.

I've been playing Ajax completely solo so far, currently partway through Echo Swamp. Aside from that first Defense mission, i haven't had any real trouble for open world missions since i now have a decent rack of mods installed and some good guns.

But the dungeon bosses? Absolute cancer.
Infinite waves of trash mobs spawning in every direction combined with the boss itself regenerating to full if you leave it alone for more than a few seconds.

Currently, the only way I've been able to clear those boss missions solo is just to desperately run laps of the arenas clearing trash for ammo, health and MP until theres a tiny window of reletively few trash mobs on field that i can tank while i unload everything into the boss.
If i don't do 100% of its health bar in that window .. Lol, fully heals itself and i have to start all over.
Not to mention they also respawn the invuln baloons if you fail to destroy all 3 in a small window.

They don't appear to have scaled the amount of trash spawns for solo at all.
And the cherry on top?
SPent ammo is not returned when you respawn after a boss attempt. So if you were relying on Special Ammo for clearing through that trash ... Good luck having less and less wikth each attempt due to the abysmal drop rate on that stuff, lol.

Most PvE content is soloable... I made it to the desert strictly solo

Without tearing your hair out?
Debatable... some of the later collosi become a tad tedious if you have to solo them due to their weakspots being on their back

EDIT:
MAYBE important to note.... I did this on Bunny (so squishy AF) but I DO have over 10 years of warframe under my belt so I know how the modding system works... in depth... and THAT is what you'll need to carry you through; no doubt about that if you solo

[Dondu]

you cant solo it later stage, game got way to many tower defense mode

[Djozar]

I play mostly solo. Main missions and outposts... but for bosses and operations I'll join a public group. 9/10 times they go fairly smooth. I don't have the crashing issues, so I can't speak to those. If something is proving more than I feel I want to take on alone, I switch to public to get it completed and switch back. You're not forced into a single mode.

[VegetaxGuts]

Thanks for all the answers! I'm gonna be skipping since I was mainly concerned about the boss fights because I'm guessing I'm gonna have to grind them out for items and what not later on and im getting the feeling the bosses are tedious solo. I already got a taste of this on the boss in the first area. I was with 4 others and the boss was so spongy it got soo boring. Honestly prefer warframe or destiny 2s gameplay over this. The gameplay feels most like warframe tho.

The dungeons in solo are pretty bad. The mob spawn on a boss never stops.

[Vordhosbn]

There's enough people playing that for the bosses, you just jump into a random matchmaking group, kill boss, get loot and get back out quickly, without saying a word. It's not like WoW where you need raid tactics, at least not in Normal difficulty.

If you are gonna solo, dungeons we would use aoers like bunny, walby and freyna. Boss we would use gley. You got to min max and stuff on higher difficulty. That was what we did in the test beta. Gley made things real easy back then.
