Alright but take examples from other games that actually have the brains to allow solo play even though its designed for multiplayer. Best example off the top of my head is ESO, this game is meant to be played with others, you get rewarded for it too and the difficulty is tough just as any other game including destiny. All that sounds great and yet the developers (as shitty as bethesda is) was able to please both solo players and those who played together. How is it freaking bethesda of all developers gets the solo play and multiplayer just right but you telling me bungie thats a much more notorious team cant implement something similar? Like you said, its laziness. The truth is, players CAN have solo play, bungie could easily please everyone if they so choose. The real issue is laziness and annoying players that think a game like destiny should only be played with others. Even if most players wont accept it, destiny is basically a shooter mmo. Thats the thing about this community, most of the community seems to forget that really important detail about destiny.

  • I mean how would you suggest they change it? Can't really make things like raids a soloable thing, it would massively limit what they could do with them. Also MMO stand for massive multiplayer online, which I don't think anyone has forgotten. It being an MMO actually kind of speaks against your point about solo play. If anything it being an MMO would more so speak to less of a focus on solo play and more of a focus on multiplayer. So I am not quite sure what your point was there.

  • The whole point I was trying to make is yes raids and such that actually require team work and cooperation can stay the way it is. The issue that I have is how everything else in destiny doesn’t have matchmaking. Lets look at nightfalls as an example, nightfalls are doable solo, you can even join bungies bs guide feature for matchmaking but in truth, that bs feature is a dumbed down version of matchmaking. There is no reason that nightfalls shouldnt have matchmaking, another issue I have is things like the whisper mission, why doesn’t it have matchmaking? You don’t have any puzzles to do other than being timed and kill everything, same as the new outbreak mission. Quest like thorn are really hard even at max level, why doesn’t that last mission have matchmaking? The issue the writer of the post was making was that these smaller missions the game has players doing are sometimes impossible for a solo player and for no reason. If the mission doesn’t require a puzzle that takes coordination and team work, there is no reason it shouldn’t have matchmaking. Now thinking about it, even the division 2 offers matchmaking in every single thing, why doesn’t destiny 2?

  • For things like nightfalls, yes there is really no reason for the lack of match making. Although alternatively they could improve the guided games system, which they really never have for some stupid reason. It is a system that could work great if they actually gave some kind of incentive to the guides, but Bungie just can't seem to figure that simple thing out. As for missions like whisper, I think the main issue with making a match making system for that is the general anger it would lead to on things like the forums. People would instantly run to the forums to make angry posts about how every in the match making system is an idiot and a noob that can't get through the jumping puzzle or can't kill, or both. Although again this could be something that guided games could be used for, but sadly bungie doesn't know how to use their own ideas. For the zero hour they could have easily made it so that those who guided other people through were given something like 5 percent towards their catalyst each time, there by encouraging far more people to get others through, and getting their catalyst just a little bit faster. Again the majority have absolutely no problem with making these systems better, or implementing them in a more general manner.

  • Well there you go, you understand the frustration of solo players. For obvious reasons solo players know the raid is not the same but everything else in destiny should definitely have matchmaking
