To keep the game interesting and more replayable I think that over time new races and classes should be added over time. With only 3 classes and 3 races at the moment the replay value would probably be less if these were the only ones throughout the game's lifespan. With new races and new classes this would add a greater in-game diversity and keep gameplay fresh for both the campaign missions and the Crucible.
I do realise that Bungie may add more races and classes over the game's lifespan but I'm just voicing my concern to the possibility that they may not.
I've added a poll to see how much or how little people agree with this.

It is very likely that new classes will be added. Races on the other hand may not be added. They can't really just throw in a new race because it's cool looking. They have to make sure they are lore friendly.

i think fallen would be awesome to play as especially if there is a fallen house that chooses to fight for humanity. you could play as a dreg that would be awesome if they introduced them into the story. but then the game would have to start differently

Destiny hasn't even been released yet and people are nagging about replay value? No, a content locked beta does not count as a release. At least give it some time to, you know, actually hit the retail market and be played. That said, it's entirely possible Bungie has an internal roadmap of further development. Whether they choose to add/don't add additional races/classes is their call in the end.

Edited by DKBossman: 8/9/2014 1:04:26 AMI agree with some of the people above me. The first leg of this journey will most likely consist of we the Terrans (assuming the Awoken are some sort of valkyr-esque experiment gone awry and the Exo which show signs of beings that are much more advanced than the servant droids showing us around the Tower [maybe android bodies for Darkness victims]) are fighting our way out of our final bastion to take back our solar system > galaxy > universe. In my mind what we've seen so far and heard is that this is meant to be a very personal and close to home crusade against an unstoppable force and its armies. We alone must become the immovable object. Remember this IP has already been on record for being one of Bungie's major projects for the next ten years. Where's the option for: Yes, but not now.

Maybe they will do something for this in the future.
-
The game is not out and people are already bitching about wanting new classes/races.
-
There is still a shot of me being able to play as a cat person!
-
I'm just pointing this out for you guys but it looks like there will be a fourth race. There's a fourth grimiore card in the race category
-
I don't think it would be good because we'll be spending all this time upgrading and levelling up our characters and then when a new class comes out that we prefer then we'll really want to play as that character but we'll have to start all over again!
-
New sub-classes. No new races, that's just stupid... Maybe more customizable characters... Not new races.

It might be DLC thing or update...
