PETITION: Addition of In-game matchmaking

Yes! Please include in-game matchmaking Bungie!

225

No! I do not want in-game matchmaking!

100

With the recent outage(which still isn't working) for PSN Friend Search in which no one is able to locate new friends I would like to propose a petition for Bungie to add in-game matchmaking. This outage effectively removes the ability of third party external websites such as DestinyLFG.net to function meaning NO ONE can find randoms for groups even if provided their PSN name. This is UTTER BULLSHIT and wouldn't be a problem if Bungie had done the right thing and included in-game matchmaking in their game in the first place. Please add in-game matchmaking! Even if its just a LFG menu/board where people post their profile and others can add them to their fireteam! Feel free to include your opinion below and reasoning after voting!

  • let's saaay... you get matched up with 5 strangers for the Vault of Glass. 3 of whom play together regularly and joined in as a Fireteam, 1 who is an old fart who has miraculously made it to lvl 25 and still hasn't figured out that he has jump jets, so he only ever jumps once, and his aim sucks... and 1 is a 10 yr old hyperactive kid who thinks HE should have the relic any time it appears, yet he is the lowest level player on the team, and is utterly incompetent in using the relic... ** Do YOU want to be the 6th man on that team? ** I guaranTEE that the 3 man organized team will be out of there before you've even opened the front door. Quitting due to the frustration at the unorganized chaos and futility of it all. because you've been trying for over an HOUR to get it open! THIS is why matchmaking for the Vault of Glass will never happen. The Vault of Glass is a long and difficult mission, and if the GROUP does not work well together, it will take FOREVER, be a HORRIBLE experience, and the group will never finish. How is this going to be a good experience for you? As for "Friends" and "Strangers". I have 8 pages of "Friends" I play with. 3 or 4 have become actual friends over time, we regularly run Strikes and missions together. The other 79 people in my "Friends" list ARE strangers, whom I have played rounds with, and have found to have personalities and play-styles that mesh well with mine. I have "Friend"ed several players in the Tower or on Patrol, only to run a Strike, or unfortunately, the VoG with, and then removed them from my list because we didn't mesh well. And that's OKAY. They will find others to play with that they DO mesh well with, and they will have fun running the endgame and future content with them. Destiny is a Social game, a Shared World Shooter. BE social, SHARE the world, meet new people, maybe even make a Friend!

      • No match making.. LFG works fine. You get pair with people who are taking the effort to play, rather than someone that might just quit out mid game because of whatever. Usually people on LFG are ready to raid & have the time allotted to do so. No someone who gets paired in matching making and quits. Ever played Black Ops1 zombies, round 20! And the host just quits out... like WTF really? & how would you match make if you were on a check point? Re start with a fresh group?

      • I don't really want matchmaking, but I do want a search option in Destiny where I can input someone's username and add them to my fire team rather than having to friend every single person I don't already know just to do a raid. That, I think should be done.

      • Matchmaking should've been included from the very start of raid. For me it's a no brainer but it should be a choice as a lot of people like clans.

          BUNGIE HAVE SAID OFFICIALLY THAT THEY WILL NOT, I REPEAT NOT, INCLUDE MATCHMAKING IN ANY RAID. THEY LIKE WHAT THEY HAVE SEEN RE: THE RAID AND HOW PLAYERS HAVE ADAPTED TO IT AND SEE NO REASON TO CHANGE IT.

          • So my semiregular hard mode group decided to run normal for the first time in forever. Needless to say it was actually the most fun I've had in Destiny. Even with some at level 27 and terrible class choices we managed to finish it in less than one hour.

            • I choose no because then destinylfg would be much thinner with the community, and I'd much rather find a decent to good player off the site than get in a matchmade game with AFK or low Levels that have never done a hard raid before.

              So you feel that Bungie should implement match making because PSN is down again? Sounds like you should be on playstation's forums telling them to get their shit together.

            • Bungie was right, it's not a good idea. Granted this could be added but people will still be using LFG to avoid having total noobs in their teams. Then VoG will only be attempted by rag-tag teams of people who have no idea what to do and matchmaking use will dwindle until theres practically nobody using it.

              • They should at least add matchmaking when it comes to nightfall and weekly strikes. I can understand why people would be against matchmaking for raids, but how about strikes?

                • I just used destinylfg.net and did a raid an hour ago with adding two people, and did just fine. No problems here
