During the Destiny Beta I usually had more than 2 friends that want to play with me at a given moment. This made things awkward when we wanted to do something like a mission as the maximum fireteam number was 3. This is somewhat understandable as the levels appear to be built for 3 players and if more were playing the mission at the same time it would make the mission too easy. However, it was a surprise to see that the Explore mode also has a 3 player fireteam limit despite there being no missions, besides the much smaller beacon missions, that needed to have an appropriate amount in a fireteam.
I was hoping that this could be changed to a larger number which is clearly possible as Crucible fireteams could have up to 6 players in the Beta. Seeing as the Explore mode doesn't need to have a balanced amount of players doing the same thing as there are no grander scaled missions so it would probably be an improvement to have more players in a fireteam for Explore mode as it would give people with more than 2 friends an opportunity to meet up to do something together in-game.

I agree if destiny is "better with friends" why can I only play with 2 of my friends? We shouldn't be penalized for wanting to jump between pvp(6 man fireteam) and pve(3 man fireteam) always having to decide who gets left out from each mission. Also idk if it was for balance or just a beta bug, but in pvp there were a few times my clan would be put on separate teams even though we were all in a fire team. This shouldn't happen... Ever.
