Raids are fun, but they don't require alot of team work.
Raids in mmos can be done with random

Destiny is really an ongoing BETA game and gamers are paying to be Beta testers. So sadd.

To bad this doesn't weed out the little kids, I'm happy theres no matchmaking. When I do matchmaking I get losers that quit if they die once, yet they are max level with max gear.

Raid would have kids wanting to push Atheon off (was patch, but they don't know and won't listen).

I help my friends on things if they ask.

I need matchmaking in raids, the addition of matchmaking to the weekly nightfalls was a brilliant decision and has FINALLY made me it possible for me to earn the strange coins for Xur every week.

I completely understand a lot of peoples apprehensions of having raids with matchmaking, but why can't they make it so the matchmaking is optional. Click on a little box to have matchmaking and play with randoms, or click a different box to play with the people in your pre-existing party, surely it can't be that hard?!

Due to all gamers having different circumstances. Matchmaking should be implemented in the game.

You be surprised how you can build chemistry with randoms, and in time have a group you can do content consistent with.

ok so lets says bungie adds matchmaking to raids, finds 5 people including yourself, guess what 2 of those people dont have mics or better yet never have done VOG or crota at all. how are you gonna explain to them what needs to be done to coordinate each raid? you will spend a lot of time explaining instead of playing to the point where you might end up at 5 hours + and i agree that maybe this is where the fun comes in as far as challenge is concerned, but were talking about the people who dont have friends or a clan and dont know what to expect and that is just normal mode, imagine hard mode and not to mention the end with atheon doing the relics. im just saying i think it will be a pain in the ass doing raids with matchmaking because they do require so much communication, and anyone who has done these will understand.

i think nightfalls need matchmaking and even the story missions those can be done with just common sense and understanding of the game.

Matchmaking is fine so long as it's smart matchmaking. Meaning their needs to be certain requirements for certain matchmaking tiers like minimum level requirements or mics at the very least. The chances of them implementing something like that are pretty slim so as a trade off they need to implement a better recruitment system besides just the reef or tower social spaces. They need to have designated areas where people can signup and recruit teams for specific events and they need to make it easier for players to notify other players. As it is now the UI is just too tedious and slow which is why so many players want matchmaking in the first place.

I don't see what the big deal is. Just because you currently have to form a fireteam to avoid matchmaking, which makes it appear that matchmaking isn't optional, doesn't mean they cant make matchmaking an overt option if they extend it to nightfalls, raids, and higher level POE.

I realize there are 3rd party sites you can use to find groups but, why go that route? Being relegated to a 3rd party site defeats the purpose since players ultimately group up with random players anyway.

Its not like these lfg sites give some insight to whether the other players are good team players, douchey, etc. Just put the option in game for those who want to use it for Christ sake.

I understand the basic premise of not having matchmaking. Raids and nightfalls would be nightmares with people who just clicked on the event.

Now, if they somehow code in a "destinylfg" type system where you can pick a few filters for matchmaking, then that would be perfect.

Bungie needs to see the stats too, I think less than 10% of people have actually played the RAID. There's obviously a huge number of people who can't access the best portions of the game.

This is one of my number one issues with the game!!

here's my thing: if Bungie doesn't want to create matchmaking for those of us who have lives and don't have the time to recruit people to play a video game, why can't they come up with something that doesn't punish those who can't do the raids. Some way for us "lone wolves" to obtain that gear that was previously only available in the raids or ToO or whatever. IDK, follow "logged in time" and once a player hits so many solo hours offer him/her a few opportunities to complete some kind of side mission or quest that would gift that raid gear or whatever. I mean, something, anything remotely like that would help. This games sucks now. It's become pointless for most of us. We can't level up, there's no point in doing crucible or pvp cuz we get destroyed by the elitists with all the gear they got in raids,so we're stuck and then we quit. That's why Destiny's stock has been falling and why there getting more scrutinized now then ever before. Especially since Bungie came out and basically told us gamers to go screw ourselves, they don't care. They're losing so many people its amazing, and I'd love to be a fly on the wall in one of their brainstorming sessions to hear what they plan to do to curb the exodus

they can also add an in game chat system to recruit players, just like Warframe has.

It's unbelievable that a AAA game like destiny doesn't understand how to group people, it's not rocket science. It's almost like they don't want people to get together and enjoy the game.

That's why I gave up on this game two weeks after launch, I knew their social aspect was completely backwards. Definitely not a game for a lone wolf like me.

Can't wait for Halo on my ps5.

I always thought Guitar Hero was boring the button clicking with the plastic guitar also got annoying. I played it twice with friends but I was also drunk and stoned. There are people who like Destiny but I never liked the game.
