Here is my opinion and thoughts on why the new raid upcoming in the 'The Dark Below' DLC will ruin destiny.. Not generally as a whole, but for lower levelled/new players.. And here is why.
The problem starts with the level requirement.. Level 30.
Even today it is rather difficult to find a 6 man party to raid VOG with.. Sure, we have the forums and our friends. But it tends to take a lot of planning. Whether nobody in your friends list is interested, nobody replies to your thread looking for players, or not being high enough level to do an affective job, it will only become harder and harder to get level 30. the second the DLC raid hits us on December 9th as finding a single player, let alone a 6 man team wanting to play VOG will be near impossible.
Now, how is this such a problem? Well this is when bungie and their plan crumbles. If you are not yet level 30 before the DLC releases, you will not be able to play Crota's End, meaning the only way you can is by getting the full Raid gear. But with the whole world focusing on Crota's end you're screwed. You have no realistic/effective way of getting to level 30.
bungie has always catered to looking after the lower/newer players i.e giving them the same chance at loot no matter how well they play. And I think to make it fair the new raid should be lowered, and made into a level 29 light level requirement so then everyone who has preordered can play what they paid for.
If you have any comments or feedback then please comment. @bungie

EDIT; kill me now, turns out minimum level is 28. Watched so many videos on it saying it was 30. *dies from embarrassment*
Seeing as you're all here now, may I direct you to another thread I made:) http://www.bungie.net/en-GB/Forum/Post/79909710/0/0 - leave your suggestions!
