So my opinion about the difference between solo Q and SWF.

2 years ago i was like 90% solo and 10% SWF player, nowadays i just play solo because i enjoy it way more than i used to, even if i get paired with "not so smart teammates". Trying to not get banned here :)

I love the solo experience because everything is unexpected, and if devs gave everything that SWF got for free to solos i would honestly hate it. The fact that i'm "forced" to change my build is one of the key factors why i keep playing as solo survivor, otherwise i would find it so boring to run the same build as everyone else.

TL;DR: I enjoy the extra difficulty

  • Playing solo with random people and not be able to communicate with them other that using signs its the way the game was meant to be played.

    I enjoy playing alone too, is the true DBD experience. SWF really feels like cheating. And im glad that the devs don't buff solo play to a SWF level for free.. Because that would be very unhealthy for the game, the aproach they are doing with perks like new small game and kindred its the correct path to implement this things.

  • Im play only solo and most of the time i enjoy it. But not always. Yes, it is boring to have a good team against an average killer and its more fun to carry a team. But when i get a match where people dont do gens or play so bad that there is no way of winning its no fun. Then i can forget the match and just do my rift challenge.

    So the fun for me in DbD are matches where both sides can win. It doesnt matter whether its again a good killer with a good team or against a bad killer with a bad team. Or a 1vs1 against a bad killer who wants to tunnel me. It only needs to be a fair matchup.
