But they don't have to exist in separate worlds. They compliment each other.
You meet like minded people in matchmaking and they introduce you (or vice versa) to groups, etc.
And when groups don't have enough members on to run, they can turn to matchmaking to fill out their group.
Makes a nice ecosystem.

By likeminded people I mean people that are not arseholes and understand you might have to leave suddenly or that you might not be very good at a certain part of the game. I agree there should be optional matchmaking but I think priority number one should be joining a group as it solves the problem of having nobody to play with now. If your passionate enough about destiny to post on the forums then you can easily do this.

You do realize that the vast majority don't use the forums. This is big picture, not necessarily you or I.

Edited by Hoops: 5/27/2015 12:02:41 AMYes I would say I am equally keen to get more players in groups than you are to get optional matchmaking. How come you aren't in a destiny clan? Almost everybody on this post would join if you started one, you sound like a good leader.

Edited by Lost Sols: 5/27/2015 1:33:10 AMI think we're both trying to achieve the same thing essentially, just in ways that are more convenient to how we want to play. As far as clans, if they were baked into the experience maybe. Spent enough time in guilds on WoW to know how awesome the relationships can be, but the drama that can be involved in them too. I appreciate the compliment, but as far as starting a clan, it would be too much like a continuation of my work day lol. I've told everyone on my Destiny friends list I'm always down to run whatever if they see me on. But like I said, when I work a 14 hour day, I'm not looking to organize runs or LFG when I get home. For me, matchmaking is perfect. Yesterday I queued for 28 PoE and we grouped up after and breezed through the 32. Added both after. I just don't see why just having that option isn't available for those willing to trust who they're teamed with. I also don't get how they can't at least make what they have more functional. Why wouldn't they give the matchmade 28 team the option to stay partied up and go straight to the 32? It's something so basic and so right in front of your face when you finish it... How can they not see that? Anyway, this is a great debate and fun thread with a lot of genuinely heartfelt reasons for wanting matchmaking and I believe it deserves more than a token corporate response from DeeJ. I appreciate your passion for the LFG and clans and enjoy this discussion.
