Alastor.The.Radio.Demon Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 I was playing plains in solo to do a riven challenge without being interrupted only to have randoms spawn on me and kill my challenge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XRosenkreuz Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 Theeen you weren't solo. People literally cannot join a solo session. That would rather defeat the purpose. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have had randoms spawn on my in my own simulacrum while playing in solo. Edited January 4, 2020 by SansPool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0_The_F00l Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 Sounds like a bug and you should report it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dante Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 I've played for a long time and never had this happen. To be fair, i barely play on the Plains and when i do, usually i'm not going there solo. (maybe it's an open-world related bug?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hello Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 I've been playing for a year and a half and I'm always set to solo or invite only. Nobody has ever joined me in a mission except for the one time I invited someone, but a random person never joined. This is in regular missions and open worlds. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xaero Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 First time I hear about this. I play solo about 80% of the time and I've never had anyone join my session. Can you record the process of you setting matchmaking to solo, then going into open-world location or simulacrum and getting random players to join? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hellmaker2004 Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 I have around 2000 hours played and i play a bucket load of solo and this have never happened to be. Sounds like you should record it and report it as a bug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taiiat Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 there have been types of Matchmaking Bugs in the past that have allowed some dumb things to happen, however i can't say that i've ever had someone join a Solo Session of mine, maybe once via a Matchmaking Bug but i can't remember if that actually happened.

IamLoco Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 Maybe people from your clan? In the communication tab, you can join sessions of clan members. Nobody ever uses that usually, but maybe there´s the "bug"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aviarium Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 i had one funny encounter in the simulacron so far, but that was because i set the game to friends only and .. who whould have thought: someone from my friendlist joined my simulacron-session. yet for solo play, since you can even pause the game during solo play, i cant imagine how the game can let other people join, if you set it to truly solo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)robotwars7 Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 sounds like you forgot your matchmaking settings to me. I've done that many times before: ran a pug, then went to do a mission solo and accidentally join a squad. as nice as it would be, the game can't possibly predict when I want to solo without actually changing the matchmaking. then again, considering how many things are busted right now it genuinely could be a bug and I wouldn't be surprised.

Itsmez Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 Solo mode has always meant solo mode for me though. Never had this "bug" happened, sounds more like you forgot to change it to solo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BDMblue Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 In the top left of your screen there is a world that needs to be changed to a man(I think). It should say public friends only solo maybe 1 more no idea. If you are doing this as you say a video would be needed to prove it. As you seem to be the only user with this problem and that points to the problem being human error over game bug. Also city’s are always public, but this won’t effect rivens.

(XBOX)GearsMatrix301 Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 Open worlds do not pause while in solo. It’s because of the day/night cycle they have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have ran into other players saying that they have had this problem so don't say I did not do it I even checked afterwards to make sure I was in solo. Also how am I supposed to record this if it happens when I am not expecting it? Edited January 4, 2020 by SansPool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was a bug these threads should be made more. This does not mean it’s not a rare bug that only effects you and people you know. It’s possible.
