As everyone probably knows; Solaris is already dead.

I was honestly shocked to see them blow Solaris completely out of proportions instead of making it just neat little gimmick, including the ridiculous rebranding, but what can be done to save it?

My suggestion is to remove divisions, payouts and all the needless baggage entirely and change Solaris into three modes. 1v1, 2v2 and Free-For-All.

You drop into a 1v1 or 2v2 and you get matched against someone with roughly the same tonnage.

Free-For-All is as the name suggests just a 12 player deathmatch. We'd need one or two larger arenas for this, but that shouldn't be a problem.

Just make Solaris a neat little side activity with no leaderboard or rewards, instead of splitting the playerbase even further.

Solaris?

Leave it be, work on CW.

Free for all would be great.
As an optional quick play mode.

Solaris was meant to be whale food but it turned out to just be floating garbage that kills turtles. Same with CW, really. PGI needs to take a page from every other multiplayer game and just have a bunch of modes to pick from with QP being the "whatever's available" button.

At least toss in a few more casual lobbies. I don't want to have to turn on Serious Business mode just to get away from QP. Hell, even QP is too competitive in the upper tiers.
