solo play is impossible due to pug or group only challenges

[TaterTotter]

This game is impossible to play solo and I wish I knew before spending money on it. A lot of this game wont even let you do things solo. Those of us without friends playing.. are royally screwed with progression.

theres a reason he cant be done solo lol you cant be a runner and dps his core at the same time oh a unique mechanic that requires teamwork how awful all the bosses should be boring and the same

the issue is this is keeping players from progressing, spending 7-8 hours in pugs that fail is miserable. There is a reason why warframe doesn't do crap like this. and all lfg is.. is fooking pyro pryo pyro

what char do you main?
solo play is not impossible lol, my freyna is currently able to solo all hard mode bosses apart from devourer and yes that means i can solo swamp walker and dead bride while they are very strong resistance to poison.
i researched a few youtube videos and combined it with my own knowledge and got a huge amount of experience with the game within a few trial and error runs of module combinations etc

lepic, did you even read? this is about pug groups on things like colossus which have no private mode.

hangman you CAN NOT SOLO PERIOD, THERE IS NO PRIVATE MODE.

for play solo you need 50k armor and 5k resistance for the boss you want fight.
rest in HP and dps

The game is extremely solo-player friendly without paying. The only issue I can see when it not may not be so, is for players who want to >>rush<< immediately to the hard mode game play. I might even add, sometimes the multiplayer aspect has made the game more tedious such as when the Undying boss had to have his orbs shot in order of spawn ~~ Many players didn't do know / care to understand this causing the fight to extend way past what was comfortable. It even decreases the difficulty of bosses/colossi if you are playing solo

I played Ajax, and he is honestly in my personal S tier, he didn't have high damage abilities like others but that defense/zoned defense skill made it easy to get through anything easily.

The game rewards you actually listening to the mechanics. Each zone has an attribute, put resistance against for it and against the mobs. Level up and mod a gun you really like within reason, and increase its level as you move through the campaign instead of swapping to a new gun that you haven't increased the module strength in. Mod and level your descendant and don't rely strictly on "recommended module setup" unless you're in a brain-dead mood.

The game needs improvement for sure, but "solo being impossible" is not it.

i only read your title and for the ones you need other people then just lfg in world chat and/or join another group thats farming it

Very misleading title and very badly written OP. You should have said so that you are just salty because of pugs failing hanged man.

I mean I'm salty too because i'm stuck with Frost Walker which has a worse mechanic. But come on man. There will be a time where everyone knows what to do. Game is still new, most people are slow. Give it time.

1.) You didn't specify that in the OP.

2.) That is not "a lot of content"

yet someone else who failed to read that this is about pugs on events like hangman. Solo isn't a issue for a lot of things, its the pug groups that are.

IF you just farm beginning zone, you can get all solo achievements in like 3 - 21 years...

The content you're able to play solo is actually way easier and faster alone than mp.

Most hard colossi take about 30sec-2min solo while they take at least 3-5min in mp.

The only content which is locked by multiplayer is hanged man on normal and the last 3 hard mode void intercept battles.

You can carry 3 out of 4 of them by yourself.
