if we aren't getting raid matchmaking then there definitely needs to be a raid specific in game lobby, the low number of players in the tower leaves a small chance for any of them wanting to do a raid. I've had ideas in my head for months now about either opening a social area in the tower that's a specific and separate waiting/recruitment room for people wanting to do the raid. like a bar or in the ship hanger. or the lobby can be your guardian in your ship orbiting around the traveler waiting for a group invite. and the raids already have a checkmark system in them. so that could be used as a search criteria. for example if you're at checkpoint three in the vault of glass you can limit game invites to checkpoint three to attract like-minded players or you can open yourself up too start at 1, 2, or 3 to get going quicker. but there's also the chance of there being that one guy who just keeps repeating checkpoints and abandoning the raid to get loot chests. so there would have to be System that only lets you open loot chests one time per raid and if you want to open more you have to actually complete the raid. plus of course a reputation system to weed out trolls quitters and unpleasant people. whatever the end decision is we need a better and MUCH further reaching way to telegraph IN GAME that we want to raid. please vote above

But from what I understand they are pretty intensive, so I could see why bungee made the decision they made with the raids. On the other hand everyone had to pop their raid cherry at some point and how am I supposed figure it out if I'm never allowed the oppurtunity to try it. In the end I have to say that if the content really requires that much cooperation that a group of randoms couldn't pull it off then to me that is a sign of piss poor game design and either they need to rebalance it so that randoms could pull it off or they need have a public voice channel that you can join in the tower to try and set up raids. A raid channel per se. Of course you'd have to join it yourself but it should be accessible rather then having to send random friend requests and invites out... If you have features like the raids you also need to make an adequate social hub. Unfortunately I'm guessing it's a bit to late in the game to add content like that so I'm guessing what'll probably happen is they'll address it with the sequel.

No Matchmaking. I get paired with enough tools in Strikes without getting them in something where I really need their help. It's desperately easy to find people to play if you want to.

Optional match making. Private as it is now or matchmaking just to get through it.
