On my XBox One, I have grown tired of playing alone because no one I know owns Destiny for the same console I do (2 on PC, 1 on PS4, 2 on XBox 360, etc.) so I need to explore people outside my usual pool. I can't access (or complete) most of the game's content without a fleshed out and leveled up fireteam (raids, strikes, VOG, Crota, etc.), so currently I own the equivalent of half a game. I tried online forums, but groups fill fast and I can't input every new person's XB live tag fast enough apparently. I tried in game invites by approaching people at the Tower, but no one accepts. I can't seem to get anyone by using the "roster" option. I finally had some random person send me a fireteam invite yesterday and I was so excited, but couldn't find any way to accept it! I searched the roster area but the invite wasn't there. I pushed my guide button but couldn't locate it on my dashboard. I even went to my friends list (taking me completely out of the game) and can't find it there. I'm so frustrated just simply trying to play my game with other people at this point.
My questions pertaining to this are:
1) Will there ever be a matchmaking function to create fireteams for all content areas (or even external to specific events, like a Tower board to post/accept fireteam invites), given how central it is to the gameplay?
2) How do we accept fireteam invites in game (or at all)?
I [b]love[/b] the concept of this game. The idea of [b]needing[/b] others to complete harder goals and objectives [u]appeals[/u] to me (if the reward is proportionate at least). But if the game can't facilitate a [b]quick[/b] and [b]easy[/b] way to do this, why is the game designed without single player only functionality all throughout?
