Hard Mode is an Extension of the Raid

After listening to the interview with Luke Smith with Kotaku one thing is clear....we have not seen everything the raid has to offer yet. Luke Smith said that this is still the biggest raid yet implying that normal mode is only part 1 and there is much more to come. I believe hard mode will not be a rehash of normal but instead a set of completely different bosses. The fact that Bungie won't officially announce if Oryx is dead? No information yet on the Queen (outside of grimorie)? This interview with Luke Smith? I'm excited for hard mode and Kings Fall 2.0. Link to podcast: http://kotaku.com/we-talk-to-the-director-of-destiny-the-taken-king-1733054833 Edit: to dispel a rumor they said that "they started with hard mode and then scaled it down to normal mode". That does not necessarily mean with difficulty...it could have meant started with 6 bosses and then gave us 3 for normal. We are assuming a lot with that statement. Edit 2: TTK is year 2, Kings Fall is year 2. Don't assume the pattern for year 1 raids will continue with year 2.

  • The Raid was developed in hard mode first so it should be great since the normal mode I'd getting rave reviews.

      • This is possible, I hope it includes something else. That would be great.

        These same types of theorys were going around before the Crota hard raid came out and all they did was add a couple witches and a level so I wouldn't get your hopes up, bud.

        • that would be the sickest thing they could possibly do. If they gave us an entire extension, almost like a brand new raid, that would totally make TTK worth the price tag for me. Especially if they made a heroic version of the Normal mode Raid. Slightly different mechanics, higher level, different rewards, more enemies. Like the old hard mode raids. & then actually gave us a separate "hard mode" Raid...? What?! That would be so dope. But let's face it...lol, it's bungie. We'll see, they've been hella stingy w. The content throughout this franchise so far. TTK was a lot better than I'd expected, but it's still lacking some things for me for $40. A whole new Raid on top of Kings Fall would just be too much for me to predict. I don't think they care about us that much lol, not unless they were going to charge an additional $20 for it.

        • I don't think so. I figure it will be the same, maybe more enemies during each stage and add a witch like the did to crota or something but basically the same

        • I can't even fathom what hard mode will be like, this raid is already very intense. As far as unfinished story goes there are 4 more destiny sequals on contract, so... they are going to stretch a lot out...

              my money is on you having to face the queen herself after being completely consumed by the darkness that or something involving saving her. but yeah some how i can't imagine we've seen the end of the queen already.

            • Oryx himself is dead. The worm parasite inside of him is an entirely different story.

                • The players make this game sound so much more entertaining than it actually is. Bungie probably steal ur ideas aswell.

                    Isn't this raid already bigger than crota and vault of glass combined together anyway. Edit: I mean I would love more to it as well but I don't have my hopes up.

                  • I was thinking the entire thing might be the same except that they change all the bosses to taken versions, just a thought.

                  • Just to be fair, people were saying the exact same thing about both Crota's End and the Vault of Glass. That "they would have additional content/bosses for hard mode." I could maybe see them adding an entire additional phase to the Oryx fight or something, (completely unseen phase, not mechanic), but adding additional bosses or entire new fights is a pretty big stretch. I wouldn't get your hopes up until we actually see hard mode or get a confirmation of what it will entail. And Luke Smith saying that "this raid is the biggest yet" in no way implies that hard mode will be a whole new raid. The statement itself is true to the fact that King's Fall is actually, right now, the biggest raid yet. Stop reading into things that aren't there.

                    • The thing that gets me is that there is 5 emblems for the raid. Only 1 is given for normal mode. Where do we get the others from?

                      Anybody else notice when oryx comes from the ground down there, their is a platform that looks like we land down there and continue on the long ship. Any guesses?
