Do people even know what a "raid" is?

I keep seeing a consistent theme in the comments about how matchmaking is needed for the raids. The common complaint is I don't have any psn friends or I'm busy with work. I'm sorry but a raid is something that takes both time and friends. I raided in wow. Raiding takes time. There were calendar invites. 3 hour blocks of time set aside. Decisions on division of loot. If 1 of the 10 people made a simple mistake you started what you were doing all over. If you add matchmaking for the raid here is what you will get. 2 fresh level 20's that expect to be carried for gear. 1 person who is half playing while doing 6 other things. 1 person with their mic on but blasting annoying music. 2 people who are actually prepared to raid. So if you have limited time your actually wasting time with randoms. Either you spend 30 min to get 5 other people ready to raid and complete it in 2 hours. Or you que up with 5 randoms and then fail miserably for the next 3 hours. Everyone says all they have to do is put in mic chat. That also will be a mixed bag of 6 people not agreeing on how to do the raid. Or 2 people have a mic but don't care to work as a team. The only way match making will work is if you nerfed the crap out of the raid and rewarded lesser gear. Raids are meant to be a test of your individual skill, working with a team, a big time commitment and a little luck. If you somehow feel a group of 6 random people can on a consistent basis actually complete a raid....... I would like a sample of the Kool aid your drinking. Raids are a chance to get the most epic, coolest, bad ass loot. It's not epic, cool or bad ass if they give it to everyone. http://m.neogaf.com/showpost.php?p=123373556&postcount=1085

  • Please take this under consideration... I completely understand why people and even devs of Destiny don't want matchmaking for raids; its hard to do without any communication. People don't want MM for this because they don't want randoms in their group. Please take a minute to think about this: If you've got the time to get your friends online, then by ALL means go ahead, dont cockblock those who want the matchmaking.... Let them struggle.... You want to make groups for yourself and your benifits, then DO IT!! Nobody is saying no, matchmaking is the OPTION!! Do you guys know what that means? OPTION? OPTION: the power or right of choosing. <- http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/option?s=t which means you can choose between making a team for yourself and going with randoms. NOBODY IS FORCING YOU TO GO WITH RANDOMS!!! its like saying I dont want to go swimming and you shouldn't either... act of being selfish [i could do this but you can't type of thing] [please don't hate, if you do ill take it as you don't understand wtf im saying] Thank you.
