Sure it is. It's a pseudo-mmo. You can't convince me that one wouldn't be able to just ask about joining a raid. MM is not required for such a thing.

It's not anything MMO, it's a console shooter. And life is not always predictable, some people have jobs and families that it's very difficult to coordinate a time when their 5 other friends all have jobs and families. Why do people seem to think that "well, when I have time, so will everyone else."

You bring up an absolutely correct point that is entirely irrelevant to the topic. Adding matchmaking to raids will do nothing to help a player with coordinating with their friends. The point is that it is not difficult to [i]find[/i] people who wants to do raids. Someone having less time does not impact that. They just need to reach out and stop expecting people to be handed an experience. I am actually rather thrilled about no matchmaking in this regard (it was something that I had discussed in the Bnet P7 podcast), as I believe it will provide another tool to develop a community. Having a button that just slot machines some players doesn't really build anything. Why stick with people and develop new friendships when you can just keep hitting this button. Instead, jump into the tower and start talking with people, that's where the pseudo-mmo aspect comes into play.
