@ShogunRok: Man you summed it up perfectly. I can say as along time MMO player level caps are nothing its all about stuff to do after getting that level cap. I mean even in World of Warcraft even once you hit the max level there is still plenty of stuff to do, even weapon an item upgrades. A maxed level character with the best gear in the game plays alot different then a maxed level character without the best gear.
As long as Bungie has plenty of stuff for us to do once we hit max level whether its 20, 50 or 100 I don't see a problem with say a level 20 level cap. I mean I can do PvP stuff still, craft weapons and just go on loot runs for example. Just cause you maxed your level doesn't mean the game is over.

I'm surprised no one has commented on this personally it's put me off, I am usually online at different times to some of my friends on my friends list, so i'll be unable to play part of the game Raids.
Bungie has confirmed that Destiny's 6-player Raids will only be playable with people on your friends list, as there will be no option available for matchmaking with strangers. The thinking behind this, is that it'll encourage players to carefully communicate and co-operate, planning and enjoying these more challenging missions with their friends. Raids will form part of Destiny's experience later into the game, with some lasting for an hour or two. They'll be "one of the pillars of the game", according to Bungie.

Honesly I dont see where that is a problem. You can schedule a date before hand to have everyone online at the same time to tackle a raid. For example Sunday Nights 9pm to Midnight or something along those lines. Guilds have been doing that for years in other MMOS.

Oh no. I have to get six of my online friends to play at the same time, with the same game, for hours on end... This isn't helping my lowered hype for the game. 1 month left. I have no headset, this can be a barrier to a huge amount of people who would rather to play with strangers in silence just enjoying the game not cringeworthy dialogue with friends. Forcing isn't good.

Schedule to play a game you payed for, towards a game you should be able to play anytime you wish with or without friends, no thanks.

Wow you are acting like raiding is all that there is to do. There is a ton of other things that you can do if you dont have friends on for the time being. I am not sure what you are getting at but this is not a problem like I said MMOs have been doing this for years.

This is what raiding is all about. You need to know the people you are playing with as it is all about team work! Or (as in my friends early WoW days) make new friends and have a blast!
Plus like Tasuki said, there is plenty to do. Rememeber this is not you bog standard FPS! It is a MMORPGFS OMG BBQ
Also, PLEASE PLEASE set up a forum for meet ups. It is needed for this game!! And Plant Vs Zombies Garden Warfare
So I am going to post my thoughts on the whole Raid with friends only bit. Some of you will see the same thing in the news article but I just wanted to post my thoughts here in case you missed it in the article.
Wow I can tell consoles gamers from PC gamers big time with this decision. If this had been a PC game no one would be complaining, PC games have been doing this for years with MMOS, World of Warcraft, Everquest, Lord of the Rings Online just to name a few. I don't understand why people are so upset yeah you need people on your friend list but does it have to be people you actually know? Just keep you eyes on sites like Pushsquare or other game forums or heck even the Destiny forums themselves. YOu will see a bunch of "guild" recruitment threads pop up. I have been playing World of Warcraft for years and honestly I don't know any of my guild members in RL but I have grown pretty close to some of them to consider them some of my closest friends. Heck I didn't know any of you on Pushsquare before I joined but some of you I would consider friends now.
So I don't see what the big deal is.

The point is is that you dont have a keyboard to make friends with, you can't join with strangers until they're on your friends list. The tower is a shambles and the main way to communicate is repetitive dancing. This is the difference.
Ok so how is that stopping people from making a recruitment thread on a site. I mean I see people for example here on Pushsquare making threads for meeting up in various games. I mean I saw one for GTA Online awhile back, I have seen people make a thread for Killzone multiplayer. So how would it be that much different for people to do the same with Destiny.

I think that since everyone will know you will need six for raids from the very start of the game, I imagine many people will be making friends after completing strike missions. Hopefully by gaining friends through various sites and through strike missions it will not be a problem.
Since we'll all need to get a decent number of people together to tackle these raids further down the line, I thought it would be worthwhile creating a Push Square community group over on Bungie.net. Someone already had 'Push Square' - though I don't think it's someone from the site - so I had to call it 'PushSquare' instead.
