Friendship doors need to be fixed in solo play

[R3DSKULL]

As a solo player sometimes it is a bit frustrating to get 3 friendship doors in a single round. There should be a simple device on your hip you click to a button and walk over to get the second one, or a way to blow the doors off. Then if another player joins the device stops functioning. Either way if your playing solo Freindship doors should not block progress to loot.

Here's an idea: Don't play a co-op game solo?

[Ninja]

Just to be sure... You know that this game is made with coop as a priority right? Dev offers to play solo but do not expect that basics will be changed so some lone wolfs can play more comfortable.

I was there (solo) but after a while I apologized and shake hands with quickplay and randoms. This is part of life.

I'll be sure to do that once I find people who like farming.

Nah they are fine. Its good that the game encourages team play.

It's actually possible to get in by yourself by taking a mech, facing the back against the door and exiting the mech
You will clip through the door and end up inside the bunker
Trouble is you have to kill yourself to get out hehe

In order to do that hosting needs to actually work. Also hard to find diff 1 people

I would love if you could open the double door when you have a rover dog with you that goes to press the other button.

"I want to play this multiplayer coop game with no other players, why it does not allow me to do things that reward playing with other people when I'm solo?"

Counter argument to the "just get teammates" line: matchmaking has been broken for so much of the game's lifetime. It's profoundly tone deaf to implement measures punishing players who can't get teammates when your infrastructure is holding together with clown spit and prayers.

I say there should be some sort of hacking stratagem available when in proximity to bunkers to allow solo players to access them. Punch it in, hold position for 5-10 seconds, collect loot. Just like Bosco in DRG, it would mysteriously vanish upon a second player joining.

The biggest Problem is after you found someone to open the door only to get trash in there :(

I'd be ok with this change if 50% of the time it blew up your destroyer instead and auto failed your mission.

"I suffered the horrible matchmaking so everyone must suffer with me and anyone asking for any improvement is just a loser because they want to have fun"

Edit: adding in this other quote since it deserves the same response

I do play coop with friends lots of times, but i find sometimes in the middle of the night when im solo running there isnt anyone around. Figured like someone said above in DRG you have bosco when your solo and its a coop game, its not like oh noes its coop screw you. The toxicity in this games playerbase is the reason only to play with freinds or to play solo when matchmaking is functional. Amazing how the trolls with their tiny opinions come out with hostility tword the idea of solo playing and wanting the game to have the wherewithal to account for this gameplay. Not everyone in coop wants to try new weapons on lower levels or wants to just as other says farm. I do not like to always play under maximum pressure i like to stroll along and actually enjoy the quality scenery the devs created. No reason not to have a simple device on your Bat utility belt that you cant when solo put on a Freindship door and when another player is present it doesnt function. Not going to hurt anyone and doesnt take much to accomplish.
