Heh..  Well it wouldn't be wrong to call it that, but if you have a
menu option that says that you're playing a different game ;)

Usually in the multiplayer shooter space, when someone refers to "lone
wolfing", they just mean entering a server but not really playing as a
team (or in the case of Battlefield games, not joining a squad, etc).
In other words playing in the presence of others but not really as a
team player, kind of just a random guy looking out for number one and
mostly disregarding whatever the team goal is.

Some server admins frown upon it (in games that support dedicated
servers that is -- R6:Siege does not).  In games like Battlefield
where there's a lot of players, most of the time nobody minds if you
do it as long as you're not getting in anyone's way.  In a game like
R6:Siege which has smaller teams, not making an effort to contribute
to the team goal would be a lot more obvious, although the game design
lends itself to "loose teamwork", at least in Casual mode.
