I can tell you right now, no OMM for challenge mode is a joke.
They reversed the hubs PoE. Year one, the main hub was 28 and the satellites the higher difficulty. So I didn't even look, I just queued for the main year two.
Got in and had no teammates. Thought it was odd, but I downed the first boss in about 5 minutes. Then got the second boss a bit past halfway when I died. I probably could have beat him too, but was in the wrong spot.
Went back to orbit and realized the main hub for year 2 is challenge mode and the satellite is the 41.
I'm level 309 and easily could solo the first 2 rounds...
So why exactly is there no matchmaking for this?
Ended up running the 41 and it was like running the 28 PoE right now.

1 ReplyDude, I've been using LFG with no mic. I've been speed running them and it's a joke. Me and two randoms with no communication can knock it out in 11 minutes or less. Maybe it will be harder next week. But this type of "difficulty" doesn't warrant lacking OMM. The Nightfall this week is exponentially harder. Also, I've read a lot of people are soloing CoE. I'm not that hardcore in PvE, but maybe you're better than me and could solo it.

I will never understand their no matchmaking philosophy in this game. I means seriously every game has built in matchmaking. Hiests in GTA, even Elder Scrolls Online I can get matched into groups for dungeons or even PvP. Will you get crap teammates? Yea, but you'll get good ones too you can build on. Even firefight beta in Halo 5 this last week had of course matchmaking. The only games I had that didn't have it built in are old Atari games, SNES, Genisis, N64, you know. The days before online play.

3 RepliesEdited by SpacemanSpff434: 4/13/2016 5:43:16 PMIt's crazy. I compare this to the division, which has omm, and bungie could not only do it but do a better job. Right now bungie is able to line folks up based not only on level, but light level which is a good read as to power. The division doesn't have this, so you find yourself with weak teammates in over their heads in the challenge modes. While with the bungie set up you'd land in POE, light level 309, with other folks around that level ready to rock. It'd be great because you'd know everyone has the right weapons and load out, which the division lacks. I'm lucky to have a large group to draw on, but I sympathize with folks that don't. Bungie should add this in, I find it works great in the division even with the flaws i mentioned. Flaws bungie is already able to over come. Edit. It's empathize. Damn auto correct.

9 RepliesI just wiped with two randoms twice in match made PoE because I was the only player who was focused on dismantling those fu-cking mines. I stayed for a second try only to deal with the same problem; they didn't assist me at all! If the Challenge Mode features Critical Objectives, then again I say it should never feature matchmaking. Also in every match made PoE I've run since April 12th and I mean every god damn run, I'm the only one anticipating the Critical Objective then completing it. I'm sick of being paired with retards. Not just in PoE but any objective based PvP mode, or end game activity. It's driving me to the point of hanging up my guardians for good. It's become a sick trend whenever I use the match made system. I fail to see why everyone supports it because I cannot be the only one who's been paired with morons. I consider that to be impossible. And for the argument of what Bungie has to lose? Plenty. Everyone would come back onto these forums claiming the match made activities are impossible to complete with match made people. Incoming nerfs to everything would then ensue.

Look at that small arms modifier. Wait for solar, arc and void burn with some other crazy debuffs. I can't say I'd be opposed to optional matchmaking but I'd need my crew for those crazy ones. We shall see.

1 ReplyIt's three -blam!-ing rounds and easier than lvl 41 but made the 41 mm and Coe not. What sense does that make!??
-
5 RepliesPoE/CoE needs fixed and FAST. CoE needs 5 rounds WITH objectives (DISMANTLE MINES YESSSS?) as well Skolas randomly in the lineup... It's like they flipped the difficulties by mistake or something...even yr1 Poe, the lowest level was the hub and higher levels branched out, but challenge mode is now the center and L41 branches out.. Safe to wonder why is it ALWAYS a step to the side rather than forward with this game?!
-
Any 3 player or less mode should 100% have optional matchmaking. Anything else is just Bungie trying to extend game play and slow progression. No more no less. It's the single most frustrating point for me in this game.

Bump.

4 RepliesNormally i get pissed about not having matchmaking. but with how chill and fun challenge poe is its super easy to find people willing to run it with you.

1 ReplyI personally think challenge mode currently is a warm up to get you ready. Remember there is [b][u]4 months[/u][/b] of fresh challenges. [b][u]4 months[/u][/b]

Challenge of elders is a joke. You don't need anybody to complete it. I actually hope that next week is much harder. OMM should be in every event.

PoE/CoE needs fixed and FAST. CoE needs 5 rounds with objectives (DISMANTLE MINES YESSSSSS??!) and Skolas encounter needs to be in the mix as well

Bump. I also find it odd that the central hub is higher in level than its satellite hub.

13 RepliesYou and I have discussed this so many times... I can't figure it out. Why not? The main question that comes to my mind is no longer "how can it hurt?" but now "how does Bungie benefit from the lack of OMM in Destiny?"
-
2 RepliesIts "endgame content", so bungie dont want omm since this is still an "mmo".... Something like this?
-
Bump.

4 RepliesIt's crazy how easy challenge was. Maybe it'll be simple and easy to throw a fireteam together because I couldn't imagine anyone being elitist about this. But I understand you're point. They should've just put matchmaking on it and been done with it.
