While everyone is entitled to their own opinion, I don't agree whatsoever. This game plays about as solo as all other games currently. Think of WoW for example, one of the most renown mmos of its genre. You can basically solo from level 1to cap, and frontiers the only time you communicate is in raids, and that's only if you don't have it down already.

I have met some great people.every group iget I socializes. My FC is very active, and for the most part HMs require strategy and discussion. I hope your experience gets better, but I never feel like its a solo RPG. Unless of course I'm playing my solo storyline.
