Just a quick follow up on a post from yesterday. Bungie has now officially released the Destiny Companion App 4.1.0 update which brings with it a host of new ways to connect with new players and form fire teams for raids and Heroic Strikes. The new features are now live for iOS (iPhone/iPad) and will presumably eventually come to Android. For those looking to run The Taken King raid but don’t have a core squad to play with, this update goes a long way towards making that easier on you. Well done Bungie.

What exactly is new in the Destiny Companion App 4.1.0?

Update to Forums to create special Fireteam recruitment focused topics:

• Define what kind of players you are looking for—Family friendly, Rowdy, Casual and Pro.
• Set the size of your desired Fireteam and the activity you want to play.
• You can let players know if you are looking for a guide or you are willing to be a guide.
• Players browsing the recruitment forum can reserve slots in your Fireteam—As the creator, you have the option to kick or approve.
• When your team is ready, you have the option to finalize it—which will lock the thread and setup a private chat with you and your team.
• Topic search now has filters to find threads by platform, activity and skill level.
