Destiny's first expansion pack, The Dark Below, is set to release on the 9th December. We already know how much it'll cost, and how it plans to aim for better storytelling, but there are a few smaller, interesting details that you may not have picked up on just yet.
In an interview with Eurogamer.net, Bungie president Harold Ryan spilled the beans on some lesser additions that may end up being selling points for those who are still enamoured with the sci-fi shooter. "The light level cap will go up to level 32, so for players who are playing into the endgame, they've got a couple of more levels to go, which is going to really help them with the raid and other competitive weekly strikes and events," stated Ryan. After reaching level 20, the only way to develop your Guardian further is to find and equip gear that boasts a 'light' statistic, so it's safe to say that the expansion will be throwing plenty of new armour your way.
Moving on, the developer reveals that the game's bounty system will be getting a slight overhaul: "We're adding new bounty slots as part of this, so people can keep doing the weeklies along with picking up the new content that comes with the expansion. We're going from five to 10." This change sounds especially good to us, because, quite frankly, we're sick of traipsing back to the bounty 'bot just to pick up one last task. However, it does sound like this alteration will be applied in an update, and won't be exclusive to the The Dark Below.
Are you liking the looks of these lesser-known additions, or is this expansion just not for you? Shrug off a wave of thralls in the comments section below.

I already paid for it, so, what the hell....
Selling peices of the original game at a premium, I'll pass.
P2P... Pay to patch
@Bad-MuthaAdebis I agree with your opinion whole-heartedly, unfortunately I already got the season pass so Ill go and check it out and see if I can get a glimpse of the original scope Destiny was to have.

Kk Great, So I'm suck at lvl 29 as the VOG NEVER gives me any raid gear, so I can't continue lvling to 30!! So what poo they going to do to make me get to lvl 32?!?!
Is there any word on them making "match making" for the VOG and the "weekly Heroic strike", I had high hopes for this game and I'm struggling to carry on playing, I think once GTA V and The Crew come out I won't be playing this anymore, which is sad as the game did have potential! I have the first two DLC packs for free, so shall take a dip but no promises Bungie!!
I know the game is mediocer in most every way, but the combat is just so fun that i keep coming back. I look at this dlc as just another excuse to shoot monsters and i am ok with that lol
Oh yay......Bungie offers up content pulled from the game for a premium price! Nice! Awesome! Way to go Bungie! You're the best comp.......
Ok, I can't go on. This is crap.
I'm very glad I traded this game in to get most of my money back. Such a disappointment and I gave the game the benefit of the doubt. Never again, Bungie is really a one trick pony and to even cut content from the original game to sell it for more money turns me off of bungie completely. I won't even get hyped for any more games with their name on it.
the light level was only raised by 2? lame.
Already moved on from this game, too lame and don't have 90 hours a week to go up one level
I have been playing destiny for two month and still don't have level 30. That rng in raid is bs. I don't want to do this for level 32 the same way. So fu stupid bungie hipsters.
