For such a miniscule event like Crimson Days, why is there no matchmaking?
I get that going into solo into a doubles playlist could go horribly if you go against a pre-made fireteam, but since they're already putting in a Freelance Mode, why not implement that mechanic early into Crimson Days? It shouldn't be that hard to make a separate playlist for solo players. I work 12 hours a day and don't have time after work to go on LFG just to find someone for a DOUBLES playlist. I just want to jump in and play. Kind of a silly request to some, I'm sure. But I can't be the only one who thinks this right?
Edit: Thanks for the replies guys. As few as there are its the most I've ever gotten lol. For those who say it's meant to go in with a person you already teamed up with because it's Valentine's day, I get it, but solo players should have fun too. That's like telling everyone IRL who is single to stay home this Sunday if they don't want to meet anyone.
Edit 2: Lets keep it up guys. Deej or Cozmo really needs our feedback regarding solo play style. An actual solution is needed, espcially for something that supposed to be as fun as SRL or Festival of the Lost. I keep seeing posts about Crimson Doubles being sweaty as shit already, and I haven't even played it yet lol.
Edit 3: Wow over 100 replies! Thanks to everyone that is contributing to the conversation, be it for or against the topic at hand.
Edit 4: Just past 200! There's a lot of good points being made, one obviously is that I'm lazy as shit and should just use an LFG website and call it a day. I sure as shit could do that, but the point is this all boils down to is that I have to leave the game in order to play it. This has been an issue since day 1. Maybe direct matchmaking for Crimson Doubles isn't the way to go, but to simply not have any way of finding people to play with in game besides messaging randoms in the tower is ridiculous. To bring it all home to the title of this post, it's a small event, and while the bounties are tied to being in a fireteam, it could have been set up way differently. How? Idk look at all the other posts people have put. Take your pick. I don't want to (or as others would call it too lazy) use something I already have to use for raids just for a small ass event.
Edit 5: 100 likes and 500 replies! I'm digging it!

I played this game solo for over a year and used LFG when an activity required premade teams, and had zero issues because it was something created by the community for the community. Since last October, I've been in a clan and it completely changes the experience because you have reliable people and you enjoy playing this game with them. I have also met some awesome people via LFG who I still play with. Instead of using LFG to accomplish certain activities, try and build friendships from it. Yea there are jerks who lurk around the LFG sites, but usually they let it be known with their LFG requirements and even if I fit the requirements, I still stay away from those individuals. In regards to CD, the intent was to pair up on our own, not have Bungie do it for us. As long as they continue to let the intentions be known up front, I'm fine with that. Who knows, maybe they will start adding matchmaking to more special activities, but I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for it.
