I’m thinking more of a soloable interactive tutorial. You can get an overhead view, as the game tells you what to do you can watch it happen beneath you as holographic guardians play through an instance. Then when your comfortable you can spawn below and take the place of one of the holographic guardians and video queue’s tell you where to stand, shoot and move

I'm focusing on what likely would happen because that's how matchmaking works. Take the Sundial for example, how often do members of the team have any level of communication with each other? The answer is never. Everyone is doing their own thing, which is okay for activities like the Sundial because there is no failure mechanic, but this is terrible for raids or high level activities. Let me humor you for a moment and go with your system. You say Heroic would essentially be the point of entry having no requirements (I'm not considering 920 light as a requirement). You would end up with the group of players that would most often use Matchmaking, people with low skill that have no idea what to do. These people for the most part would not use a mic for communication and not listen to any direction, and even if they did, it would not be for the length of time required to learn the mechanics. This Heroic mode is the essence of why Matchmaking raids is a bad idea. Now let's say you go with Master, needing 5+ clears and 960 light. You would have people that at a bare minimum have a base understanding of the raid and are not underleveled, which could lead to a viable team, but with no leader or coordination of roles, this could easily lead to situations with no clear leader or multiple 'alpha' characters that try to be the leader. It also does not take into account the skill level of players, some people don't mind spending 4+ hours in a raid while some want to get them done in 30 minutes. Some people want to do challenge, some don't. Many teams have different fundamental changes in strategy that would cause confusion. It's still a recipe for disaster. Every time Matchmaking gets brought up for raids, I see nothing but failure unless the team of 6 come together with a similar set of expectations (time commitment, weapon loadout, etc), and the way to accomplish this is with LFG, not Matchmaking.

I agree with you 100%. But raids having matchmaking doesn't mean you encounter these people.. You can still do what you do now, just find people before going into a raid..

If you want to have a good laugh, lower your light level below 900 and go into a 920 Nightfall. (you can raise your light level after you find a team) I did this once and watched as both of my teammates used their entire heavy and supers on an Overload Minotaur without even putting a dent in it. I sat back and let them both die then killed it with ease.

It... it was a joke bud....

you hold too much faith in people being reasonable. yeah i cant wait to be randomly paired up with Mic-less idiots, People under equipped, People who are using a gun/bow or something that isnt meta and people who dont speak english, then on top of that people who will not listen and you cannot kick out, not to mention people would go in and intentionally throw for fun.
