Needing to form raids on websites is stupid.

Someone has to say it. Does Bungie not realize that randomly finding people online isn't very different from simply using matchmaking? If your friends aren't on, you just search for people so you can play. With the current communication options (or lack thereof), it's simply mind boggling you can't use standard conventions to get a game going. This is one of those things where a company is being stubborn and it will eventually get fixed. It's just a matter of how long they wait. Online gaming is hardly new, this is such a giant step backwards in terms of structure.

  • Finding people online is so much different than matchmaking. The little bit of extra effort you have to put forth (and it really is SUCH a small amount of effort) will help ensure your party is all on the same page and it'll prevent people from ragequitting as a) they are playing with people who are now on their friends list and b) you took the time to find these people so you really want to complete the raid. The raid is a commitment. I have people leaving Heroic strikes frequently, which are a fraction has hard as this Raid. If there was matchmaking for raids you'd spend more time searching for teammates and explaining the mechanics than actually doing the raid.
