DICE has taken duos out of Battlefield 5’s Firestorm battle royale mode.
Duos initially launched as a limited-time mode for Battlefield 5 gamers, however followers wished it saved as a everlasting addition to Firestorm. DICE obliged, and the mode has been out there ever since.
Unfortunately, it doesn’t sound just like the Firestorm participant base is sufficiently big to maintain solos, duos, and squads. The developer has formally confirmed the mode is being shelved for now, and didn’t give a date as to when it’d return.
“Since [bring back duos], we’ve seen more folks jump back into squads mode, with less preferring to Firestorm it up in duo – so we’re going to get back to the original plan today and we’ve disabled it’s matchmaking,” DICE wrote in a Reddit post.
Both solos, and squads stay out there, similar to when Firestorm first launched.
“We’re going to look at ways to ensure that you all have the opportunity to enjoy these modes after their initial availability, without compromising the matchmaking experiences for players who’d prefer to stay with the base game modes,” the developer added.
