Review Copies (Destiny)

My experience was that I would occasionally see someone in the tower or in an explore area, largely doing their own thing with no way to talk to them. It's basically like having friendly marines occasionally show up in Halo. The journey style matchmaking didn't seem to significantly change the game, since you were probably doing different things, and you couldn't talk. The public events aren't that fun. All the fun is through fireteams, which can be formed by reviewers.

I actually don't want to correct you that much, hence why I haven't corrected you or kapowaz (at least not here), but you could talk to people, through fireteams as you mentioned, and through party chat. I bring this up because I think Bungie might be disregarding comments like these as people not getting the interface and the possibilities or purposefully exaggerating, and I think the fact people are not realizing these possibilities or forgetting about them or acting like they're not worth the time and effort to use and discuss (even though it's minimal!) shows that these options aren't good enough.
