I feel like this expansion should be free to the community. I feel like playing the story line of Destiny and what the story line has to offer, didn't have enough "substance" or "umph" to it. There wasn't much development in the story or to make me feel proud that I've genuinely enjoyed the game and to really keep me to continue playing the game for months ahead. I'm going to compare this game to borderlands, right in this paragraph. Borderlands did it right, where they elaborated more on the story than destiny. Borderlands made their players feel worthy in the game and provided "umph" with meaty campaign story lines while providing adequate rewards which condition players engaged and motivated to keep grinding to increase better gear and leveling. While the rewards system and vast story line kept players engaged, borderlands released DLC's packs that came with more amounts of stories, weapons, events that made players feel useful and engaged. I know some of you are arguing about matchmaking, but I do like the fact that we have to form our own fireteams manually without random matchmaking for weekly strikes and VOG. It helps build friendship bonds, and makes the game more enjoyable on a social aspect. In summary, please Bungie make this expansion free since the primary story line lacks substance, and please provide better rewards system.

  • You could still for your own team for the raid, but if you can't find a full team or any team wouldn't it be convenient to use match making instead of spamming recent players.

  • How is matchmaking any different than meeting strangers in the tower to ask to play? The only difference is it would save people a lot of time trying to gather that last random person or two for the vault... Nightfalls.. Etc. I have met plenty of people this way.. Yes.. But I would have met them just the same if they were just playing in my game to begin with.

  • Because when you're matchmaking, Everyone has their own idea of how to deal with the bosses unless everyone is good at communicating and super open to ideas. When you form your own fire team, you got a selected group who do the same things together in depiction in which what works and what doesn't. It's more effective to have a selected few who you work closely with than matchmaking with complete strangers. As for filling that last spot, then I don't know what to tell you. VOG and weekly strikes are suppose to be more "intimate" with your selected group. You're suppose to do things together as a group to be an effective fireteam. Does that make any sense?

  • I guess in theory that makes sense. In practice though every time I've played the raid it's been with randoms I spammed or was spammed by. A few times people have even gone rogue as you describe. You get your asses handed to you a few times then everyone starts working together by necessity. There's no doubt a team of friends is optimal, but why not have the option of matchmaking as a back up.

  • Even if there was matchmaking. What would stop you from still forming ur own fireteam? Besides your own lazyness. Just like in cruicble. U can make ur 6 man team then go in. Or randomly let it do for u. Raids would b the same way. They arnt gonna say. "theres match making for raids now, YOU CANNOT form a team before entering. Must b all random players"

  • So all the people that can't gather six people at once that rely on these forums to get people or straight up go to the tower and ask people to do it... They have similar strategies? Maybe not for you but a big chunk of the community joins raid groups with complete strangers. It's no different than matchmaking other than the extra work to recruit them.

  • Forming your own Fireteam is fine, if you could actually communicate with other players to form it.
