My feedback on duo

I could not see where to post about this in the official discord.
My experience is that MANY people, who I know, want to play Marathon, but they aren't playing because want to play with one friend and can't get the schedules together/wanting to play the game at the same time to do tios.
If we are going to have duo's anyway then why not just make it full duos. If more testing is needed than please test it obviously!
But if there aren't many people playing duos now and won't be alot playing if full duos is added, then that it won't really affect trios.
And if there are alot of people playing duos now and will be alot playing if full duos is added. then it also wouldn't really affect trios because it's likely that those people aren't even playing trios now, they are play solo or just not playing the game at all. or maybe they are playing trios with fill off and getting annoyed about that.
It must seem like a good idea to add duos since we keep getting little drips of the mode.
Like, the worry is that adding full duos will make load times so bad that trios people will stop playing the game altogether? But what if not adding full duos is keeping people from coming back or even trying that game in the first place. I think the later is way more likely. there are TONS of games with crazy load in times. and people still play those games. in Deadlock i am waiting 10min+ for a game pretty often.
Also, could my experience be wrong or abnormal? sure! I'm not a game dev. But if features are being added that can extend load times to play with people near you. then why not add duos? I guess it would possibly affect everyone. But It very likely it will bring more people in anyway and that would make the game better for everyone. It is so much easier to get one friend to play a game with you, consistently, than it is to get two friends. and you need a consistent friend or else you are being left behind in vault/loadout value compared to everyone you will have to fight.
Also thanks for a great  game, i do love it so much, season two is amazing.
