Yep you read the title right, stop. All you people on here asking for matchmaking for the raid don't realise where you are right? This site has thousands of players on here looking for people to join or help do the raid every minute! I can post "Xbox one - xTGE - level 29 warlock - sunslinger/voidwalker maxed" and get an invite or find people in a matter of minutes! You people sit here and complain how you don't have time to organize a fireteam to take through the raid, well if you don't have time to come on here (but you can to complain) and quickly leave your Psn/GT and get an invite to a raid party in a matter of minutes then you don't have time for the raid. Matchmaking will wreck the raid because they aren't actual teams that work together. Here's some examples of what can/will go wrong in a match made raid session. 1. No mic - if you're new to the raid and have no idea what you're doing and don't have a mic it's only going to cause frustration and rage quitting (get to that in a second). 2 - low levels - the raid is designed for anyone that is level 23 and higher to get into and at that level they will get destroyed, so what if you joined a team of people below 26 and just couldn't get past the first area? I know it was like that for me and a lot if other people at that level when the raid first came out. 3 - rage quitting - this is the biggest thing here. With match made games, if things become to tough or hard like strikes and crucible matches then it will cause rage quitting and then what? You're left with 5 people? Then another leaves then another then another Untill it's just you but wait people join yor raid since it's matchmaking, well great but now they've missed out on all that loot they could've gotten before hand and if they made a fireteam before hand. 4 - no teamwork - let's face it, the raid requires teamwork. 2 people on each plate, the defending of the Conflux then oricles, the Templar, atheon, all require teamwork. But what if you have people that don't work well together? Speak a different language and can't understand you? Then you have issues with your team which can result in all the above. Yes matchmaking is needed for nightfall and weeklys, but not for the raid. It will just cause more frustration and more people having issues with bungie due to not being able to complete it then people will say they aren't having fun or can't do it and hate the game because the feature they wanted doesn't work. The solution is simple, have a room down near the speaker (door xur stands infront of sometimes) and open it up. Have a spot where people can type a message or put down they're looking for a fireteam or people in the tower can meet up and acknowledge they want to raid. Better yet, while you're here, post that you want to join a raid or find someone asking for people it's honestly not that hard. I raid 2 times a week, normal and hard which makes 4 and do nightfall and weeklys twice and everyweek I do them with new people I find on here. Don't add it bungie, let the lazy continue to be lazy and suffer because they can't be bothered to actually look because match making will cause more anger at you and the the game itself. Yours truely, a raider on Xbox one.
