Only when competing in the Buckyball Runs I go Solo. Otherwise 100% Mobius.

After extensive ED playtime put in, I have come up with an answer to my own question....

I hate sharing RES sites with people who won't Wing up lol... Having a crappy set of spawns, and knowing if I was alone I could log out and back in and potentially have a good spawn of Large ships drives me nuts. So... That is now why I play Solo. Only when I want to farm RES and there is an unwilling party in the same site of course. Mobius otherwise!

I play mostly all Mobius. Like others, occasionally I go into other Private Groups for RES or Trade Wings, or for 1-1 PVP.

There are times I do play SOLO, when grinding a Conflict Zone for example, as Mobius is still PVP in that game-play, but primarily because there are serious team griefers in Conflict Zones here, not joining wings, stealing kills in smaller ships, etc.

Sooo, for PVE I'm all about Mobius, but Community Events and Conflict Zones just don't work here.

Sometimes switch to solo in large events, like community goals or any time lots of commanders want to dock at the same station. There are some pilots who don't see an incoming/exiting ship and just try and fly straight through them. (Although the NPC pilots have given me plenty of heart attacks as well)

I mostly play in Mobius or my own private group with friends, sometimes open (have a Viper fitted for that), and solo on the side when I'm having bad luck at RES sites and want to throw another variable into the mix to see if it changes my odds.
