Guided games have intolerable waiting time

Sounds good! - Said the people at the marketing. - Do guided games, that would do some extra good with people, who usually cannot play the same time as their friends. It is a good selling point to the never ending argument that Nightfalls and Raids doesn't have any matchmaking. This would be a good oppurtunity to show that Bungie is listening. Unfortunately that is not the case. As I am writing this I am still waiting for any guide team to show up for Nightfall. More, than half an hour. Not so exciting. I have to search for something else to do instead of playing the game. Let's play "who wants to see the loading (searching) screen for an hour". This brings me back some nostalgic memories. And in nostalgic I mean just like Commodore 64 times. This game is several years step back in more, than one way, including the customization options.. But that is not what this topic is about, that's for another time. This kind of waiting time is absolutely intolerable. Wake up Bungie: Nobody wants to see the loading (searching) screen for half an hour, no sorry, maybe MORE than an hour. Your gamers want to play. But there is a solution: Bring matchmaking to Nightfall. No, nightfall is not so complex to not have this option. It's only a tiny bit more harder, than a simple strike, but not so much as it would suffer the gaming experience with random people. You know what suffers the experience most? Ridiculous waiting times! And I won't touch the Raid in my subject for a reason: it has the most inhuman waiting time of all. And I don't think that, in this case, Raid has to be matchmaked.. It shouldn't. Guided games for Raid is a good idea. But unfortunately just in theory... Because everybody has better things to do with their free time besides that waiting for your wonder to happen. Fix it.

    • Guided games are useless, matchmaking is still a no-go, Bungie does not motivate clans to guide single gamers, no reaction, no reply, Bungie does not care. Money in the pocket, "oh sorry, does not work? We are busy making content ripped dlc-s for you to spend more money"

      • Well there's zero incentive to host one, so add some and maybe people will do it.

      • No real incentive to host them what with general Endgame content interest on the down slide.

      • Ran a few people through the nightfall using guided games with a friend. Thought I would give it a try for myself when no one was online. 15 minute wait time, backed out after waiting 5 minutes. I think just doing matchmaking would be a better idea.

        Bungie thank you for making the WORST part for MMO's ever more unbearable wait times at least in mmos you can do things other then sit and wait. The other night we picked up someone for are 6th for the raid we only had to wait for like 30 sec but the person we picked up had to just sit in orbit for 5hrs. You cant do anything at all but sit there waiting. Make it where we can do thing other then sit in orbit or better yet Please just put in matchmaking for raid and nightfall so the 6 people waiting to do the raid can just run it with each other. Would you rather spend 5hr trying to get the raid done and maybe fail with 5 other random people and get some loot or sit in orbit for 5hr.. Matchmaking for raids works in other game way cant it work here. Also on the note of guided game let us get are check points 5hrs waiting 4+ hrs working to finish the raid and calling it at that point and saying ok all meet up tomorrow and we will finish it up to see no check point and start all over with no drops well there is 2 words that came out of the whole raid group. @#@$ THAT. Are group will not do guided games for raid anymore. FIX IT bungie.

      • Has bungie commented on this? To me, this isn't a petty issue - people having to sit there for an obnoxious amount of time.
