Top tip Don't play a team based multiplayer game if you are going to moan about other people playing a team based multiplayer game as a team. This game was never designed or optimised for solo players.

  • Bungie routinely promotes the game as play your way and at your pace. Not everyone has your sparkly personality and charm. Some people prefer to reasonably grind alone.

  • I dont disagree. However its a muti player game designed for multi players! Its difficult to complain about people doing exactly that. You can play it how you like but its not optimised or designed for solo play on the main.

  • Those are good points. I agree. But i am not sure with the match making being what it is, peer to peer servers, the loss penalty system is flawed and other issues leaves a lot to be desired. If you chose to play solo and not engage the community you do miss a lot. That i do agree with and recommend LFG my experiences have been mostly great...and theres no other way to get raids done after the great player exodus during Osiris. All that being said Bungie should be able to make reasonable tweaks to make the single player experience better and the grind for these weapons more attainable for players...particularly when the guns are the pvp meta.

  • I don't think they want to, they know that people are likely to hang around longer and play with their friends more. No offence to most solos but they have no investment in the game other than the content. I wouldn't play every day if I didn't have the fun and banter of a team, after 200 plus D2 raids I still like raiding as its fun with my friends. Solos can already do 90% of the game quite happily on their own, is that not enough in a game designed for multi player content.

    In the spirit of conversation... I agree. The reason why D1 was aucha great game and pretty much up to forsaken were those social experiences. I founded a large clan with my best friend IRL and with another friend who i met through he. We sherpad and enjoyed the daily grind together. So I appreciate and agree. Where i have issue is that although the social and multiplayer is the best part and essential for experiencing the end game we have so many players gated from experiences. What percentage of the player base have complete any of the D2 raids? Im thinking even less than we think. Theres more Bungie can do to make the solo experience more complete. Thats all i want and for the best weapons not to break the meta or sour the experience for other players. To all guardians reading this take a chance with LFG there are more helpful thoughtful patient guardians then alpha jerk gamers. You can do all the content. You are not alone

  • I agree, go to the 100, lots of players sherpa, lots of players will take the time to teach if people want to listen. Sherpa is a hard life, I have moved away from it in D2, people dont listen, they argue when you try to help them and most of all they quit. Matchmaking would never work in raiding sadly, play some solo reckoning and it will quickly demonstrate that people dont have the right gear, the right idea, the right light or anywhere near. But basically they quit which just wrecks the game. Good day

  • You must remember joining groups and no one knows how to run relic, or sword or rotate or which safe room to run into or jump on Aksis back... Fun times. Ill admit it may have been a better when they had normal mode raids so people could learn mechanics... Good day guardian

  • Glad we can converse like mature human beings. That being said, I share similar words to Ilio. Certain aspects of destiny are definitely meant to be played with fireteams (I’ve personally done more raids than competitive). But thats where that argument may come to an end in some point. Those kinds of activities almost force team composition, but competitive matchmaking allows small groups or solo players to join, unlike trials of osiris/the nine. I believe a simple fix would be to implement a prioritization to match people with teams of similar sizes. Either way, in most cases, LFG would not work with me as my average to decent stats have not been in the spot of attention, so to speak.

    Sorry but your logical argument has gotten you a fee. That will cost you 50 down votes and 15 angry replies from solo players. EDIT: Spelling
