What is more impressive? A bunch of friends finishing a raid or a bunch of randoms? I have completed every Easter egg on COD zombie mode with complete randoms. Did people quit half way through? Yes, a lot. Did people I was matched with not have mikes? Yes, a lot. Did people kill the last zombie in a wave when we needed it to be kept alive to finish a puzzle? Yes, a lot Did people purposefully do things to ruin what the rest of us were attempting? Yes, a lot? Did I have to start over because of this? Yes, a lot. All of the above can be frustrating when trying to solve a puzzle that requires teamwork to finish, but at least we were GIVEN THE OPTION. There are many players that don't have the time and/or schedules that allow them to play with friends. They should not be shut out from experiencing the same game everybody else is playing. [quote]Just join a clan, that's what I did, and now I have people to play with all the time.[/quote] Not everyone is a social butterfly and randomly messaging a complete stranger is just as difficult on a forum or in the tower as it is in real life. Matchmaking allows these people to gradually get more comfortable with the people they are matched with. They could also end up being the one player the team counts on the most or even a new friend. Don't lock out portions of the game because YOU, the developer, believe that randoms can't work together. We all payed the same price for the game, we should get to experience the SAME game. Frustration with randoms comes with the territory, but people that play with friends and clans will continue to strike/raid/play with friends. Give us, the consumer, the option of matchmaking for the more difficult game modes. If three randoms and I can work together to unlock a puzzle that requires all four of us, each pressing a button on a wall simultaneously in separate areas of a map to activate the next part to a puzzle in COD zombie mode, (big breath) then I believe that a bunch of randoms and I can beat your Vault Of Glass. In fact, I CHALLENGE YOU, Bungie. Allow matchmaking, so that we, the randoms, can prove you wrong and defeat your Vault of Glass.
