Fireteam Etiquette (Destiny)

I wish they had matchmaking for fireteams outside of strikes and raids. It would be nice to just be able to go public any time I want to play a mission, instead of having to hunt someone down to play with. I'm not really interested in that. It seems odd to me that they don't have this.

They don't have it for raids, and that's probably a good thing. I agree with you otherwise, though. They could even do it like Strikes, where you have to explicitly invite people to your fireteam to be able to hear them. I find the game more fun co-op and the most fun playing co-op with members at or near the same level. That's been tough to find.

Oh yeah, I agree that voice chat should be by invite (though I usually universally mute everyone for most games). But yeah, the campaign is getting boring really fast to me, because it is clearly structured for coop. There just isn't enough actually happening to make it fun by myself.

It's a shame that the private areas of story missions are mostly the same places from the sandbox with different spawns. The result is that there are really only four levels in the game, one for each planet. I would love to see more tailored experiences in the story, but at least if there were matchmaking, it would make what's there already feel less empty.
