[Official Petition] Introduce optional cross-platform party capability

Destiny is a console MMO and it requires mulptiple players to form teams and work together to achieve in game goals in PvE and PvP. Currently, Destiny is same platform only, which means players can only play with people on the same version as them. For example, a PS4 player can only play with PS4 players. I feel that this is a very limiting factor in the game and may dramtically reduce the potential and life span of players interest. With previous MMO experience I understand that it is a thirving commuinty that can really make a game successful. What I propose is that Bungie introduce cross-platform capabilites to their servers and the game allowing players to join other people from other consoles. Bungie have stated themselves that they have the technology for this but have chosen not to implement it due to graphical and speed differences between consoles. They argue that some objects and effects appear differently between versions and this could create multiple advtanges/disadvantages for players involve. That very reason is why it could be implemented as an 'optional' matchmaking choice. Even party only would be an improvement so players can play with their friends who own different consoles but also play Destiny. This will only enhance players experience and encourage more people to purchase and play Destiny.
