A Fireteam in Old Russia.

A Fireteam is a combat unit[1] of up to three Guardians formed to conduct infantry operations with tactical flexibility.[2] Fireteams act similarly to clans in terms of game mechanics.[3] If all members of a fireteam are downed simultaniously, progress is reset.[4]

Fireteams are optional in story missions and on patrol, but are required in strikes. Players can form their own fireteams if they wish, but if they enter a strike alone, they'll be matched with players of similar rank playing on the same strike mission. Forming a fireteam is necessary if you want to bring other players into a darkness zone. Fireteam leaders depend on how many kills you have, how many team mate retrieves you have made, how many ghost retrieves you have made (only one needed, if not it's okay,) sometimes dead ghosts can be found on old Russia, Earth in one of those abandon ships on the thick layer of snow nearby The Forgotten Shore, Old Russia, Earth.

The know enemeys to the Fireteam are The Hive, The Fallen, and sometimes a few bad residents of The Awoken.

The base of The Fireteam is at the Tower, The Last City Remaining... The only place The Traveler can still protect.

There is 2 chatlines that guardians of The Fireteam's Action Messages will appear, and also these chatlines can also be for The Guardians to communicate through with voice partys, microphone use, etc. The first chatline is called The Fireteam Chat, and the second is called The Team Chat.

Forming a Fireteam

Players can form fireteams in one of two ways: send an invitation, or public meetup. If a player has their Fireteam Privacy set to "Invitation Only", then anyone wishing to have that player on their fireteam must send them an invitation in-game via the player inspection menu. But if that player's privacy is set to "Public", any nearby player can automatically join.

Trivia

  • David Dague replied to question on Bungie.net, The question being "what in-game devices will there be for clans?" Dague replied with "what are clans?". This joke goes further with the fireteam card file name being "ClansLol.jpg".[3]
  • Guardians can form a fireteam up to the size of six Guardians in a Raid, such as the Vault of Glass.
