Night Hunter Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 Like any great MMO, Destiny is constantly evolving to meet the needs of its community. The latest Nightfall strike has been made more profitable and a new update has improved Legendary drops in the Crucible, but what about those raids. More specifically, will Bungie ever add a matchmaking capability? In the latest issue of Edge, creative director Luke Smith tackles that age-old gripe head on. "I think matchmaking can make other players disposable to you," comments Smith. "The reason that people quit out of strikes is because there’s no consequence to their departure, just a punishment for that disposable person on the other end of the line. It’s pretty hard for me, emotionally, to want to subject groups of players to that. What’s not hard for me to think about is a version of Destiny that makes it easier to look for and find groups to go engage in difficult content with, a version that helps bring people together in a way that the current software doesn’t." For Smith, it's all about making a game that benefits the community. "A bunch of the stickiness of Destiny for me is that it’s the bar I can go to when I get home, where I can wear my pajamas and shoot the shit with my friends. It’s a game that’s best played with others, and it’s our responsibility to embrace that further in the game."

SiD Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 Like, ya know, user-owned servers? Not that kind of game, home-skillet. It's a Hybrid MMO-FPS. More PvE than PvP. The pvp part is Meh at best. They have auto matchmaking for the Strikes, which are basically dungeons that PUBs can complete with ease. But if you want to do raids you need to form your own group. Which sucks for anti-social assholes like me. I view most of an MMO community as disposable, so it would be nice if I could just queue up, shoot bad guys in the face and leave.
