Do you really want the kind of people you get stuck with during strikes to do something like the nightfall... There will be people who go afk for the rewards and because its matchmaking, you cant kick em. There will be people who want to get it done in the time limit for the sunrise bounty, good luck with a match made team... People will join nightfalls in progress, so theyll be piggybacking on your work. Lower light level players would join matchmaking, forcing higher level teams to carry, or throwing them into a group of players who are going to get rolled over. The idea of having a fireteam for nightfall is to be a prginized group who knows what theyre doing, they know what each other is going for and they know if they cant complete it their team mates will find someone who can. If you dont have friends for the nightfall, lfg is always an option. Its not as if "i dont have friends, therefore there is no chance for me to do the nightfall" there is always a group of people willing to help. There is plenty of matchmaking in the game, i think game modes that require a team makes things more orginized.
