This would be good I think. Honestly, I don't see why there isn't matchmaking as is. "The raids require communication and teamwork" -So require the microphone to be on. "LFG would bring under leveled players, dooming the party to failure from the start" -Make the minimum levels in LFG the max light score with Vanguard or Crucible gear. That way, the people entering LFG are people who at the very least, were interested enough to raise their light score to the pre-raid maximum. "Matchmaking would force Bungie to lower the difficulty of raids" -The difficulty of raids is figuring out where to go and what to do while being rushed by enemies. Once you have that down, there isn't much difficulty involved. Furthermore, both raids have been soloed on hard mode. Can you really tell me that a group of randoms couldn't pull it off after a few tries? "Destiny is an MMO and lone wolves are antisocial" -Actually, I have no problem socializing. In fact, I enjoy it quite a bit. But I object to the necessity of scheduling MY free time around the schedules of five other people. LFG would let me sit down and play when I want to. Honestly, the lack of matchmaking feels like an artificial attempt to make raids more imposing than they are. But. That's just me. I enjoy Destiny and will continue to play it on and off (gotta separate some time for Witcher 3!!!!) through all the dlc, expansions and sequels. I just wish that I could raid on my terms.

  • I played solo for a month, had a random person stalk me on the tower and dance with me, made me laugh, so I sent a friend request, few days later got an invite to atheon on normal I was a level 27 with no raid weapons, she had no mic and still has never said a word, just sent me a message saying "shoot the glowing things" and that was the beginning of my ever expanding circle of raid buddies. No mic can be a problem, which can be rooted in shyness, gender issues or a language barrier, but the person on the other end is one half of the problem a mic is not the only way to communicate, I was taught how to use the relic through watching and the patience of others. But no mic can be just another level of difficulty. The people complaining just come off as elitist, antisocial types that would complain about anything cause moaning on a forum is their other favourite thing to do

  • YES! Doing Raids - or even 6 v 6 Obj games in Crucible is unsatisfying if not impossible unless you go in with 3 or more friends already in a Fireteam and party chat. Tried going into Raids with Randoms from the Tower. No communication at all - which makes it impossible.

  • Every raid I have done has been with randoms. Never the same person twice. It can, and is, done all the time. Get over yourself
