Solo Q buffs - Sooner than Q2 2023 don't expect

Since the recent update on upcoming wiggle and flow changes coming next year Q1 and also that they have allready full schechule of prepared work to do this 7th year of DbD, I think it's probably safe to say that I think The soonest possible date for any Solo Q improvements will be in the second half of next year (Aka after year 7 is done and we have new road map).

I don't think they will change their current road map so Solo Q will be hell more than ever for at least a year now unless miracles happen. Great!

    Or maybe they looked at the kill rates, ignored that survivors die on purpose and delayed everything to get survivors some juicy buffs.

    explain me what is wrong with solo q? I have been playing this month on surv and i dont see anything diffulutl. The only thing is that after patch it takes way more time to repair gens.

    Dumb teammates is the thing that ruins me most of my games they cant stay in chace for 15 sec and hide instead of reparing gens

    i dont see how devs can improve that.

    SoloQ is IMO the weakest role to play (and it always was but now Its way worse). SoloQ needs to be much closer to SWF. So some basic comunications (like a text bubbles wheel), Kindred base kit (without killer aura), Seeing others people perks, etc.

    I haven't had many games since the update since I was on vacation and a little burned out anyway, but my experience is pretty much if all survivors stay in the game I usually escape.

    If one DCs or suicides early, we lose (or maybe I get lucky and get hatch). If survivors actually had some thick skin and competitive fire, this might not be so bad.

    That said, some of the slow down builds have been very boring and tough to deal with.

    He's trying to balance the game with soloq and teams on vocal, review last patch he wanted to nerf the teams, review the soloq become unplayable...

    You have to add debuffs to people who play together, it's the only solution.

    This is exactly what I think.

    More games that necessary are ended early cause people aren't happy everything is handed to them on a plate. Probably one of the big things skewing everyone's opinion on the update

    The best way is not to drag SWF down, but to lift killers and SQ up to SWF's performance. SQ desperately needs QoL changes.
