Have you seen the disaster that is some of these heroic strike matchmaking groups? The raid would be a shite show, I'd rather find my own group than have it give me randoms.

---

Same. I almost always do the strikes with friends, but if for some reason no one else is on or they're busy then I'll go to r/fireteams, which is a place where about 80 percent of the time I'll get a pretty good group.

Some of us don't have the luxury of having having a lot of time to play so I don't have enough time to sit there and firm a group from scratch. If I can raid at 2pm I have to raid at 2pm if it's 6 am it's 6am

Yeah I understand that. I think matchmaking should certainly be optional for raids and what not, but from what I've heard it would be 100% impossible for matchmaking to work with the King's Fall.

In defense of r/fireteams, I don't think I've ever had to wait more than five minutes after putting up a post to have a full party for a raid or the nightfall.

You would end up more frustrated than anything. Matchmaking would never work with a raid.

We need 1 or 2 people for the raid.

We are starting Friday at 9 central time.

Will need light level of at least 290.

Warning we are going in blind and don't want to be spoiled, so it may be frustrating and long. Be prepared to stay up late.

One of my good friends went in blind and it took them 9 1/2 hours. Good luck.

I do not expect to get it done. We have done this with all the raids. We end up caving and googling after enough deaths.

Damn I won't be able to get on Friday. I'm at 290 now too.

Lol I don't know why, but I'm super intimidated by this raid. I got to 290 light last night and I still feel like I'm a mile away before I can even attempt it.

I feel the same but you really have to do the raid to start leveling at this point.

So very excited about tonight, gonna hop back on and do some more story stuff

Wednesdays are always my "not going to play a big game" nights... I don't even get home til like 10

I don't think that anyone who's upset about not having raid matchmaking is having their mind changed at this point, but Bungie's website also has forums where you can LFG. I've always used that and I've gotten in to raid five minutes after I post every single time. That's not just for new raids where there's a ton of people searching, either. Even the old raids.
