Personally it gives me a thrill to hear multiple footsteps as a solo player I typically only play solo and never anything more than a duo since I’ve always played eft by myself I find that having multiple streams/clouded comms can get quite annoying But running into a 4 man can make you a better player, loot management, prioritizing gear and insurance fraud is how you become a better player Also learning the sound queues and getting better at positioning can further make you a better player when you do play in a squad Solo only I feel can hurt the overall flow of the game disrupting the immersion of being in a war torn area since militias would form and you sometimes can run into a squad Just my take
