Can I just get ingame LFG at this point? / Optional Matchmaking discussion.

Hi, Day 1 user from Hungary. Kinda skipped on playing Destiny for a few months, then I decided to reinvest in the game and buy the two expansions. Also rolled two new characters because I kept getting exotics for other classes. Anyway that's my introduction. I already made a comment on the Bungie facebook page wanting matchmaking for all endgame content, but after I decided to try my luck on Reddit , and did the Raids... well I can kinda see why you need to look for users, and not just random luck. (I think Prison of Elders could work with Matchmaking, maybe even Skolas part, have not had the time to check that out) Here's the thing though. The process in actually achieving a full group of six for a raid is really really time consuming. I'm not even talking about going online or here on the forums to post a request. It takes way too much time to actually gather a party of six. Not even that, it almost seems like blind chance, we do not know if the party leader will pick us up for the group, we don't know if once I send an invite or add a friend request (most annoying part of the entire process is bloating up my friends list with people). This resulted in me applying for multiple events accross multiple boards, and yet still the end result was: I need to wait 30-40 minutes to start a session. I'm not saying I need matchmaking for endgame content, I'm saying this game desprately needs an online lobby, or Looking For Group system that allows us to filter request, and the ability to track live requests without the need to friend people within the PSN or Xbox system. Hell why not just create an internal friend system, so it won't bloat my PSN friend list to gazzillions. Please Bungie consider this request, as I enjoy doing the raids, and no it is not a hassle for me to get people from Reddit or from this site or any LFG, but the delay in actually getting people together and starting a match can be either a minute or an hour. Or as a final resort, just announce it as a feature for TTK, just please please do something, as I am at my limit in terms of the patience I have for this type of: Wait in the line forever to do this content. Could I please get a response to my concern ? Sincerely, A player who enjoys Destiny for all its shenenigans, and would love to make more friends across the world.

    It really gets me how some people come here and claim we don't need match making because someone might quit! Really? Every time some one has quit on me the game gave me a new player, also you can always go in with a team and not have to do match making. Most of the end game stuff is unplayable for lots of people right now because of this flawed thinking. I have no problem with the price of the upgrade, I feel people should be paid for their work but i refuse to pay more if I only get to play half a game because the game company wants me to make friends online before I can play the damn game. The way it is right now you have to get up early on Tuesday and not have to work so you can get on a team before they all do the prison. Imagine having to do this for every match on Call of duty! I think the real reason they don't is because they know their servers can't handle the volume and would have to invest more money to upgrade the system.
