Increase the size of fireteams please!!
Hi guys,
This has most certainly been discussed before now but does anyone else feel that the size of the fireteams should be increased from 3!? Because I have more than 2 friends that I'll be wanting to play with on the beta and also at release but wont be able to if it stays the way it was in the Alpha.
Me and a couple of friends were discussing this and we said that it would be great if the enemy difficulty changed depending on how many people were playing in a fireteam (more people playing = harder enemies) so then it would still make it a challenge and I/We could still play with all our friends we wanted to... even if it was just up'd to 6 in a team would be great! :)
I think thats the only problem I had with the Alpha other than that it was amazing and can't wait for the Beta and the 9th September!!! :)

Yeah this whole 3 man only thing is going to lose a lot of players. I for one have plenty of people to play Destiny with and a lot of them do not like PvP. Which is the only way to play with more than 2 other friends. Earlier today I was in a team of 3 getting ready to tackle the strike mission when another friend of mine joined while we were in orbit. We all felt like shit when the fireteam leader told them what we were about to do and that they had to leave. How are you promoting this whole thing about people having a social co-operative experience when you're limiting it to only 3 people, Bungie? People literally have to pick and choose who they want to play with from their friends list. That's ass backwards if you ask me.

Raids host up to 6 guardians and are host to the more challenging enemies in Destiny.

1 ReplyFrom what I heard you can't even have more than 3 in explore mode? If this is true it's going to cause me and my friends to play other games when we are online together.

2 RepliesEdited by DemonRonin: 6/24/2014 11:27:27 AMIts not hard to break into two fire teams. while staying connected through party chat. yeah you can't do missions together. But we explored together all of us. You make fire team of three. have comrade make fire team but save spot for you. Get invited to HIS fireteam, and bring your two others. All of you are now in same world.

1 ReplyI agree. Either increase the fireteam to 4 or allow us to link a couple fireteams together to make 6. Freemode is capped at 16 players so to be honest, you should be able to join up with 16 of your other friends in a private Freemode session. If everything is capped at 3 (except multiplayer) it'll be a huge mistake. I agree with Ninjambie, Destiny will lose players.

I do have to say that I agree. It sucks when you have to turn down another friend just cause your fireteam is maxed at 3. It's a constant issue that I and my friends are dealing with because there is always someone left out. Bingie please just bump it up to at least 4.
-
Agreed. My biggest problem with the game so far is that fireteams outside of the crucible and raids are only 3. It should be at least 4.

Edited by RDSFirebane: 7/26/2014 2:24:36 AM3 is fine rotate friends will make running old content seem new and play differently. That being said changing party size now when they designed the game around 3 people would just screw everything up but hey you can do raids with a 6 man squad and pvp so there's that.

Finally, another person that agrees with me. Destiny is going to be such a big world, and it's such a bummer that I can only explore it with two other people. I just want to be able to have a six man fireteam with me and my friends. The game can handle it, the maps can handle it, and if it's a big deal just change the difficulty of the enemies or add more of them.

1 ReplyThe fireteam size in explore mode desperately needs to be increased to 6. They should just put larger fireteams into environments that have more/harder enemy's.

Edited by JimReaper: 7/26/2014 2:02:39 AMI've played 4 player co-op or matchmaking ever since pc gaming, and then from halo 2 with the same friends - countless games, if we cannot play as a 4 player fireteam this is a gamebreaker for me and my friends. I saw someone say that bungie designed it this way because from playtesting it would be too easy, yet on the beta, me and two other friends had another fireteam of 3 join us in the exact same mission and help us - so basically that arguement is blown out the water - plus it's supposed to be an MMORPG, not exactly that with only 3 player coop IMO. But when playing on the xbox one, I approached a friend in my fireteam and clicked the right thumbstick down, and then pressed the button which is 'three horizontal lines' (dunno what it's called, it was formally the 'start' button) it says "fireteam 3 of 6", so I am hoping that this is just a beta restriction. If not, it frelling sucks, especially as this seems to be an absolutely fantastic game. And as the OP states, make the game harder the more people in your fireteam, borderlands did this - AND rewarded you with better loot for your troubles.

This is exactly what we need!
