[2019] Is matchmaking prmarily for those with headsets?

OK, I know this might be an odd question, and I may be virtually alone with my thinking, but allow me to elaborate briefly.


I am a solo gamer, UK based and nearly 50. I have damaged hearing with medical advice to avoid loud sounds around me as best as possible and especially avoid direct contact with my ears.


I am not new to the Division franchise but fairly new to Division 2 where I am happily going through the campaign at my leisure. My query is that when it comes to needing a little assistance when the numbers are against me, is calling for backup going to annoy other agents/players when they realise I am not on mic?


Gaming for me has in the main always been a lone experience, by choice. I like to play at my pace, my way, and I enjoy the challenges solo gaming provides. I am not bothered that I miss out on things like raids as such activities take me out of my gaming comfort zone. I simply want to enjoy my gaming time. This said I do realise that sharing a battle or two at times, even with just one other person, would be beneficial. But if my inability to use a headset and mic is a negative then I would rather slog it out solo no matter how long a challenge takes.


Anyway, appreciate you all listening. Thanks for your time.
