Seriously guys you're just acting like little stupid brats at this point. Hear me out before you rage about this.
Fist of all, it is your fault that there is no new raid at the release date of the expansion. Remember how you bitched about CE and that it is too short and worse than vog? And don't forget all those exploits, almost every area of the raid was cheesable. You don't want this for the new raid right? You also want a better raid with more mechanics and better encounters and that is what you will get, but Bungie can not just shit out better content in this short period of time, they can't just bring better things in the same amount of time it took them to create the Crota's End raid.
Secondly, you don't even know how the arena mode is going to be. Have you ever played Halo ODST firefight mode? No? Because that was one of the best fps experices I ever had. Maybe you will like this even more than a small 100% cheesable new raid. Also remember how you bitched about that there is nothing pve oriented in the game that keeps you playing? Well maybe this arena mode will be the thing you were looking for.
Now think about the good things. You will get a much better raid later this year. You can upgrade you old legendaries. You don't have to completely relevel your exotics. You're probably getting a better story and pve content. There are more paths to the new level cap. Who knows, maybe they will buff vog and ce to the new levelcap.
You all got what you asked for and yet, all you can do is to bitch about Bungie and how you're leaving this game. Go ahead, leave Destiny, but never ever again tell them that they're not listening.
Edit1: I would like to step a little bit back from the "it's your fault" argument I've made. I know Bungie -blam!-ed up a lot, BUT they're trying to fix it. I'm just saying that they are not screwing us intentionally and pushing the raid back is the best for us all. However, the amount of people being butthurt is too damn high. I tell you this though: If you buy a dlc without any informations about it and then get upset because the dlc does not mach your expectations, it's definitely your fault. Don't pre order I guess.

This is so true it's painful. The Destiny community is the biggest group of ingreatful assholes I've ever seen
