The easiest and best fix to all Destiny's mm issues would simply be hosted game lobbies like Gears of War.
Hosts could set matches to private for friends only or can set spots to open spots for mm.
Host selects game type, map, etc.
Host can also kick (but kick function is disabled immediately before and for a few minutes after rewards/reward chests drop), so someone won't use a mic and it bothers you? Boot them. Conversely, don't like getting booted for no Gjallarhorn or for friends? Host your own.
Non-hosts could brows available groups based on activity. Events would list host name, open spots, requirements, new run or in progress, etc.
Or non-hosts could just queue for first available of a specific game type with the option of selecting 'new run' or 'any' which could include in-progress events.
For private Crucible matches, any bounties/quests are disabled to prevent boosting.
-Solves the issue of no private crucible.
-Solves the issue of raid mm.
-Solves the issue of game types only being available periodically (looking at you Elimination and Inferno).
-Allows players to choose PvP maps, including the large maps we pay for but Bungie never let us play.
-@QuackFever suggested it could allow us to run missions/Strikes with custom modifiers and burns.
-It essentially combines the best assets of LFG and mm while also allowing Clans to set private matches or challenge other Clans.
-By playing in a hosted lobby with the same people over and over, you have time to actually develop a rapport with the random people you meet. Funny how many friends people will start making when groups aren't one and done.
Obviously IB and ToO type events would remain unchanged with everyone queueing because they're tournaments.
Once again it's up to the community to urge Bungie to support this or any other possible solutions.
