How feasible is it to play mute solo?

• Solo gets solos
• Not prohibited. Ping if you want to be a good teammate

There are 3 ways to queue up.

• "Normal" 3 player squads. You'll be auto filled
• Solo queue. The match is against other solos.
• As Rook.

Rook You queue up by yourself in a dedicated free scavenger shell. But you are put into an existing 3 player squad, lobby that is already partially through the time. So you can skulk solo around and pick up loot left over on downed bodies.

Playing in a squad of 3, silent Is totally viable. For half of the server slam I was on mic. The other half I was chilling out and silent. But I was using the quick comms wheel to ping loot, NPCs, warning of areas, etc.
