Save it kid. There are too many little kids on this game that don't want an optional matchmaking. They bitched and bitched and bitched about the weekly one. They kept saying how it will never work. Well...it worked flawlessly for me. It's a strike....a striiiiiiike. Here's a little trick. Look at who's commenting on wanting to solo the NF and then look at who is pissed about AFKers. If they are the same people then they are just the typical douchebag anti matchmaking fegguts that have been holding this game back from day 1.

Or I could be against match making because every other que there is an quittee or some idiot just going afk to get a free win

Good thing it not all about you

I agree with 100%

Edited by xbob lv: 2/28/2015 8:26:43 PMMatchmaking for weekly, nightfall and raids is not a good idea. I did the weekly with a match made group. One player kept running through the middle of the valus map dying. Neither would turn on their mics. Afk'ers, inability for friends to come back after server issues, and the fact that most randoms do not use mics are the reasons that matchmaking does not work for top tier activities. Destiny is great when the social aspects are used. Otherwise it's just any other pretty fps.

You're full of shit. I enjoy soloing and I don't want afkers in my party. Its apparent that you probably don't have enough friends to strike so you need MM. When you solo a strike the damage modifier is set for a solo player and the enemies are not as bullet spongie. When you solo a strike with two afkers (as I just did this past week) the damage modifier is set for three players but you are soloing it making the AI enemies huge bullet sponges that require waaayyy too much damage. It took me 5 special ammo synths with my black hammer while stringing 9-12 strings before a miss and then took me a heavy synth with my Ghorn and I finally switched to my IB to take down Rockets McDickface in about 18 shots. When I soloed the NF it took me two rounds from the Ghorn and finished with Black Hammer strings w/o reloading or him moving from his initial spot (no afkers in the NF).

Yes it's apparent I don't have friends even though my stats argue the complete opposite with my raid completions etc. You anti matchmaking douches are ALL just carbon copies of each other. Tools. No real valid arguments. Pathetic.
-
So? You use LFG, play with someone once in the raid, big deal. You need the MM crutch and cry because your a lonely little person. Other players shouldn't have to carry you. You must be a Liberal. "I want the government or Bungie to make others help me against their will". Liberal/Socialist crap. Make those who want to help themselves and don't want to give handouts help those who can't do it on their own. You just suck so bad you need MM.

Edited by Hurphy: 3/1/2015 4:05:21 PMHerp derp. Solo scaling of enemies was patched months ago. Derrrrrp
-
No it wasn't. You need to go back and read the patch notes. Bungie made it "more advantageous" to strike as a team but they did not eliminate the damage modifier.
-
Players being in the group no longer affects how much damage they take. They stopped that in an earlier patch.
-
That statement is incorrect. The patch made it more difficult to solo but did not remove the multiplayer damage modifier.
-
You are an idiot that can't read

Direct quote from the original patch notes; "We made a couple of changes. First, we tuned the damage to be a little easier overall so that we’d see higher survival rates in 3-player fireteams." It takes fewer shots to kill an enemy when soloing than it does when you are the only one shooting at that enemy while carrying two afker's. Try it, oh wait, you won't because you need the MM crutch. As long as all three players are actually fighting the strike is easier with three, but that's not my point. My point is that it is easier to solo the raid than to carry afker's through it. If I want to team run the weekly then I get some friends to run it with me. Just because you can't do that doesn't mean I should have to play with you.

Yeah I carried both other players both times I did the Weekly this week. Glad you had a good experience, but I didn't, and I know lots of people dealt with AFKers. Weekly is fine cause its not hard, but the nightfall definitely shouldn't. I don't want to do Nightfall and be stuck with someone who's a 27
-
Get a group together before hand then.
-
Oh really? Never thought of that...
-
If you did then why did you bother commenting? o.0
-
Multiple reasons. Let me explain them in detail since the fact that I'm annoyed with it isn't enough for you. I can no longer start a weekly up if I know a friend is on the way. Because its enforced matchmaking, and there doesn't seem to be any sort of filtering on who you get paired up with, I got paired with under leveled people, in some cases the lowest level to participate. And to top it all off(didn't happen this week) there's now the threat of people afking for the weekly
-
Yeah that's understandable, I see so many people saying aw now I can't solo this shit, you start to think everybody who complains is like that. But as for AFK's just wait 3mins and if they don't move or don't go into the strike leave and start again. Still it would be nice to have optional matchmaking.

Edited by JaykoBlanco: 3/1/2015 1:24:09 AMOr make make it mandatory but matchmaking is only accessible once you're the equivalent level for the content. IE if you wanna nightfall as a 27, you need to find some friends who will help you, not burden randoms Edit: also i used to do that in ROC strikes, but I can be halfway through or more in 3 minutes. And if I just leave after 20 seconds of staring at them or whatever, its still gonna take me another hot second to get match made all over again
-
I am not a fan of the matchmaking even though I think it is a good feature, BUT... My friend got Disconnected and a random joined and would not leave. To fix this they could put in a way to vote kick, or make it so you can make it a private session like the person that made this thread wants for the NF.

Your opinion reveals your mentality. Your mentality reveals your age. You are a little kid
