Matchmaking for Raids

Just my thoughts on how this could work. Put a sign-up board in the Tower, split between VOG/Crota and also into categories, Casual/Serious/Family/etc. When six names are on a list for a category they are joined into a fireteam. It would open up a way for those that don't venture to online forums and LFG sites a way to play Raids and make some new friends in the process. It'd be hit and miss and designating the Fireteam leader could be an issue. Anyone got any alterations they would suggest?

    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.
