A new weapon, the Necrochasm, has also been introduced, which allows for precision kills; three primary missions that the player can indulge in, like The Wakening, The Seeding and The Veil Lifted; the new Crota's End, which is a six-player Raid; and more.
The "Dark Below" DLC initially experienced problems when players who purchased the game found themselves locked out of the base game because of a bug that attached itself to the countdown timer.
A "Dark Below" DLC countdown timer appeared on the player's screen, but when they tried to bypass the timer, they found themselves unable to get past it and go back to the "Destiny" game. However, some players were able to remedy the situation by deleting and re-installing the "Destiny" game to bypass the timer.
