Geez man chill out! I don't think I have the power to force Bungie to do anything. It is simply a suggestion that a lot of people would like to see implemented. Not everyone has an army of geeks on hand to raid with and the time to go friend hunting. Tbh, not everyone wants to add random peeps to their friend list either. It is bizarre that gamers are having to leave the game to find groups online to raid with. Imho, Bungie should have implemented an in-game matchmaking/LFG system for raids and higher level strikes. I read somewhere that only 10% of the Destiny community has completed the raid .... hmmm I wonder why .... ??? [quote]I would hate to rely on random people to help me in the raid.[/quote] Read my post again. I'm not asking for matchmaking/LFG [i]instead[/i] of forming private teams. I'm asking for the option of [i]both[/i]. If you wanted to get together with your friends to raid, that would still be an option.

I'm saying I don't want them to waste their time on this feature. I know raid matchmaking has no affect on me, but I would rather Bungie focus their time elsewhere. The raid isn't for everyone, so I don't know why people keep pushing for this feature. If you really wanted to raid, you would find/create a team to raid and you will raid...gloriously. If MM was a thing, what would you do with afk-ers? Or what if someone is purposely throwing the raid for trolling purposes? Could you vote them out? How in the hell could that work or even be fair? Or what happens if someone can only raid for like 30 mins and backs out? Does MM find a replacement? What if the replacement was looking for a fresh start raid? Actually, part of me wants to see raid matchmaking become a real thing. I love watching train wrecks.

It is not a waste of time if that is what players want. For the raids, 4 out of six votes get a troll/AFK/muppet kicked. Players who drop out will or are kicked will be replaced by MM. I can't see what the problem is tbh.

So, a group of 4 friends join a fireteam and go into raid MM. They get matched with 2 randoms. 20 mins into the raid, their 5th friend gets on. They vote to kick one of the randoms to invite their friend. Seem fair to you?
