Now it's not that I have no friends, it's that they either don't have Destiny or we have conflicting work/class schedules, meaning it will be nearly impossible for us to experience these features. I understand that the lack of matchmaking is supposedly to try to make it so the fireteam communicates to beat a mission that's more challenging than usual, but this going to limit a large potion of the community from experiencing the full game. Why not just allow matchmaking? If a player wants to play with a bunch of friends and use voice chat, they still can, and if someone is unable to find people, they can just use matchmaking. Adding matchmaking does not detract from these features at all.
