My Thoughts on Raid Matchmaking.

Alright. So why can't raids have both? If you want to get a team of friends together to do raids than you can. If you want to just play alone with 5 others you can. What's the big deal? Why is that such a big problem? I don't have any friends that will be playing Destiny (don't have much friends at all due to social anxiety) I'm not good with socializing or making new friends, so that means I won't be able to do raids at all? That's ridiculous. For me and many others with this problem doing this would be more stressful than it would be fun. I don't care if I don't have as great of a time, it takes more times to beat it than if I had 5 friends who made strategies and other nonsense together, or if it dilutes the experience. It should be an option. Just because I don't want to go out and find people to do this with, doesn't mean I shouldn't be able to do it at all!

  • I agree with wanting matchmaking for raids however I can see why people dont want it. Bungie will be collecting data on the raid, number of people, how they are grouped, whether its the same group and so on. If you introduce matchmaking it will affect theae figures and adjustments to the raid are likely to be made as you'll have more players entering more often and failing more of the time. Some people have suggested having a mm difficulty with lesser rewards a la wow. I am actually opposed to that completely. I say just ignore the mm data in terms of making changes. Thats how ff:arr does it. Once the mm was introduced for raid content there it actually got harder in some parts. Without matchmaking there needs to be more social tools in place to be able to communicate more effectively. Randomly inviting people to a group could be considered harassment, I know I don't want people just randomly inviting me to groups.
