As a former solo casual PvP player, I can't remember the solo experience being in the state that it's in right now playing Trials of Osiris. While I'm grateful for the increase in player population, I don't think it helps the overall experience of playing PvP. Whether it's the terrible balancing or just the different motives of the players playing. I've shared an image of what I've experienced in 75% of my games. Most of the games feel like a 1v3 where you're just hoping that one other person on the team can at least help. Or you're on the other side where you're just stomping the other team. I understand that we have substituted competitiveness for participation, but there needs to be some sort of balance somewhere.

And I'm not even a good player. I'm just average. But being solo is extremely frustrating. I can show you some pictures and videos I saved too. I literally have 16 kda kills in most matches while my team has either 0 or 4 kda kills. Balance or revert this. That's the problem of bringing ''new'' players. I don't think this will last. Sure, right now some people are super ok with this, because they're either the teams stomping every other player, or because they literally barely got any adept weapon and now the adepts are literally being handed to them. The weapon economy will be a huge problem in short time and I'm impressed Bungie made this sht change. What will be the purpose of Lighthouse/Trials if now everyone has tons of adept weapons since the system is now straight handling them in the easiest way possible? So yeah. As a solo player too, every match feels like a 1v3 and it's extremely frustrating. I really, really hope they revert this change and add, idk, more mercies or more wins with the previous passages if they want everyone to get adepts. I don't care, handle the adepts, I just want balanced teams and the pity that I know I'm not wasting my time because on my 6th/7th match were I want to get the 7 freaking win streak got ''red glow exclusive players'' that don't do sht. This is just not it. I assure you, solo players will quit this mode due this frustration, and only the diamond teams or ''new players'' who weren't regular Trials players, will only try this for a few weeks and then out. Just wait.
