Soloing: An Essential Skill on P99?

[Vlak]

Hi all, still pretty new around here but I've started to notice that a lot of talk in the forums focuses on people being able to solo or how to solo with just about every class. It got me wondering, do P99 Blue players prefer to play solo rather than group or is it an issue of population size or even just a lot of people wanting to explore and soloing is just easier to do that?
