Destiny developer Bungie hasn’t discarded the idea of adding matchmaking to raids in the hit sci-fi shooter, according to an interview with world design lead Steve Cotton. Speaking in an exclusive interview with The Metro at Gamescon earlier this week, Cotton made clear that the studio was listening to feedback from fans and was still discussing the idea of adding matchmaking to the Raids in the game. Replying to a question asking whether Bungie was still listening to the fans after many had requested matchmaking in Raids, the developer revealed that they were prepared to consider all feedback. “We are absolutely listening, and we’re absolutely thinking about stuff, and we are also absolutely prioritising the things that we want to do,” said Steve Cotton. “So we’ve prioritised, in a lot of cases, giving players new adventures and new experiences. And then things like private matches, this is the right time to bring that into the game. So, I think it’s just about us trying to make the things that we

Bungie is set to make one of the most requested features available in Destiny from next week. A beta to allow players to communicate with other players in matchmaking events such as the Crucible and Strike missions will come with an update that is scheduled to release on November 18. If you are playing in any matchmaking game you can quickly switch between public chat and private Fireteam chat by toggling the option using the d-pad. Full details about the chat changes can be found on the Bungie website. In other Destiny news, the Iron Banner event is set to return to the Crucible by the end of the week. The unique multiplayer mode offers players rewards for competing in specific game modes and allows level advantages to play a part in determining the outcome of games.

Speaking in the Weekly Update on Bungie.net, community manager David Dague said that although they had expected that only teams made up of groups of friends would be able to beat the raid players have proved them wrong and this might lead to the introduction of matchmaking for raids and other higher-difficulty missions. “Those stories surprise us, but the players of our games always have. The best I can do to answer your question is to let you know that you’ve been heard. We’re having conversations about how Matchmaking might support the more challenging activities in Destiny. It’s a start. Keep sounding off about it,
