Add Matchmaking to Raid, Daily Story & Weekly Strikes?

Just sharing some hopefully useful feedback and a suggestion here. The Daily Heroic Stories and Weekly Heroic Strikes and Weekly Nightfall Strikes are fantastic if you can find a full group of players to do them with. But they can be difficult and boring solo. Would it be reasonable to request that coop matchmaking is added to these, just like the Strike playlists? It would make completing them much more fun and finding people to play them with much easier. When I have no friends online and want to play them it becomes quite frustrating trying to find anyone to play with. I think it would also greatly reduce the amount of spammy forum threads and messages cluttering up all forums looking for a team to party up and play with. Any thoughts? I may have missed it, but has Bungie said anything on this matter as far as anyone is aware? Hopefully matchmaking can be added to Raids, Daily Heroic Stories and Weekly Strikes and Nightfall Strikes in the future. Let me know if you agree! Cheers [b][u]EDIT:[/u] Based on feedback, it sounds like some oppose Raid for matchmaking due to difficulty but some disagree - it sounds like it might be more worth your time to find a team to do it with as opposed to matchmaking as there have been many good points brought up, however there still is not any harm on giving the option. And for the Daily Story and Weekly Strike and Weekly Nightfall Strike missions they still sound perfectly reasonable to all for coop matchmaking as they are comparable to other Strike mission matchmaking playlists [u]already available[/u] in The Vanguard playlists.[/b] [b]Edit 10/3/14:[/b] Some good news in this week's update regarding matchmaking. "In the meantime, keep sounding off about it." So, let's get sounding. [b]Edit October 30, 2014:[/b] Nothing yet but again, DeeJ said that if we want matchmaking added to these and Raids to keep " sounding off" about it - so let's keep "sounding off," folks. Add your continued thoughts, comments, and concerns. [b][i]And continue to use this thread to ask Bungie nicely to add matchmaking to the said game types :)[/i][/b] Cheers! [b]Edit January 5, 2015:[/b] Still no update on this. I really find it frustrating that one of the very few ways to get Strange Coins are by doing the Weekly Strikes and for some reason I can't do Matchmaking. What is the harm for [i]at least adding it to the Weekly Strikes?[/i] Regular Strike playlists already have matchmaking! Super, super frustrated at this point. I try so hard to keep playing, enjoying, and defending this game. But this kind of missing feature makes it so hard. There is no reason for this not to exist. Please folks, keep sounding off as DeeJ said. It's the only way it will ever happen. Cheers

  • I agree - matchmaking should be for everything. For the raid (having spent some time on it but not 100% completed it), I would think they'd have to force people into fireteams so they could voice communicate. It really needs it. But the mechanics I saw (until a couple people had to leave after a couple hours) weren't insanely complex - just taking practice to execute. For weekly story, any any story, and weekly heroic strike, I doubt voice is a must - but would be nice. Nightmare maybe voice needed. For an online only social shared world co-op game, Destiny is absolutely terrible at getting people together.
