Let me simplify this as much as I can. If you don't understand, please post your query. Thanks.

Press "F" to create a game.
... Current Option(s)
... ... 1 = Open (Non Guild + Guild can join)
... ... 2 = Guild Only (if you tick Guild Only)

Suggestion: Press "F" to create game
... Option(s)
... ... Solo = Only your character can play in this group, you can NOT have others to join whether they are in your guild or not, this also applies to level cap. Thus... no one else can join your game.
... ... Group = The choice to choose either Guild Only or Open like currently and the level limit you select.

What are the benefits of choosing "Solo?"
... The mechanics can be changed for;
... ... Objectives (removal of group only Objectives and only showing Solo only Objectives.
... ... Introduction of new Objectives for "Solo" only players
... ... Maybe introduce different Drop & Quality Rates or RNG from monsters.

What are the downsides of choosing "Solo"
... Again, mechanics can be changed for;
... ... ??? (add in your opinion)

Actually... no... removal of Group only Objectives is the same. So if players choose to play in Groups, they benefit from group only objectives right? You can NOT solo NMNM, you need to be in a group, this got changed with updates.

However, the game mechanics and coding can be easily changed if you can select either:
Solo climb only (Objectives specified for them)
Group climb only (Objectives can be added)

It gives more options to address game Mechanics to be more versatile with either scenario, YOU and others just need to come up with other things that balance out Solo and Group play... hey, they may also be able to choose different Abilities to choose from if you could stipulate that a character is ONLY solo when you create the character (this is another suggestion also, where they can NOT create a Group game.)

Just need more thoughts on how to change a few minor things and still use the same server(s) and game mechanics for either build.

Reported your post as spam since it has been repeated, even though I gave you a decent reply. But I will just put it in simple terms for you.

Objectives can only be completed under certain rules.

Some objectives can be done solo ... up to Ambush.
The other objectives require you to be in a group of 2+.

Now if you could select "Solo" only, then the "Group" objectives would be removed, and you will have a higher % chance in finding them when you fully explore catacombs. Unfortunately how the game mechanics are for Objectives and RNG of them spawning, makes it harder for Solo'ers to complete some of them, like Pinch / Treasure Pest that are like level 6 or 15 requirement, this also includes Soften the Sneaky Shell ... all of them can be completed Solo.

So no... it isn't a buf for Solo players if it was introduced and no other changes were made.

I think you need to read better or get back to playing the game as it is Solo and compare the difference... as someone pointed out ... YOU choose to select Solo or Group for your play style and gear you have with the company you keep.

Again... answered and reported as spam. Reading comprehension goes a long way even if you repeat the same question that another person posts.

The answer is NO. I want to add more content to the game and introduce a coding section for each core (Solo & Group)

The simplest way to explain it, is like a Branch growing out from the tree and off-branching to make more, or creating new "leaves" ... so think of the game mechanics as it is as a whole being the Tree, now you have two(2) branches = Softcore & Hardcore, now on each of the branches, it creates more.

Both branches feed off of the Tree (game mechanics), yet each branch produces independent leaves ... how you prune the branch, you can direct it a certain way outside of the tree trunk

This also applies to coding, or filing if you worked in an office or sorting out your own files on your own PC.

Just simple... and if those that question "Buffing" just solo, are just oblivious to the opportunities for group play as well... remember, Events still work with either Core already... thus they also apply to each section of Solo or Group. However... they maybe able to add more content because they can code it based on Solo or Group play style.
