Since the recent patch I have experienced random disconnects, predominantly experiencing the error relating to a loss of connection to servers. Additionally I have started to see the pop-up message saying 'connecting to world' displayed as im playing - similar message dialogue that is seen when a player joins your fireteam. Usually this message happens when I am grinding for mats on patrol missions. The most recent disconnect was only a few minutes ago - I was solo'ing the weekly heroic and 3/4 way through the final boss BOOM disconnect... not a happy chap as I was doing pretty well and I was in the zone. Somehow I actually maintained connection to the Destiny servers during the supposed disconnect, the screen went black then I was just sitting in my ship in orbit twiddling my thumbs. I'm sure my in game character was as irritated as I was, as he sat in his cockpit wondering why we're both magically in orbit, having just been in the middle of a boss fight. I had to log off before my character discovered a distinct lack of strange coins in his backpack - I didn't want to be there when he found out :/ I love Destiny and can forgive most things but the disconnections seem to come along as the most awkward times, often punishing me as it always seems to be when im towards the end of a strike or mission. If my character had emotion or some sense of self awareness I'm pretty sure he would refuse to go anywhere near an instance, for fear of just wasting time. In fact - I wouldn't blame him if he just wanted to stay in orbit chilling in his ship. I have a very fast and stable internet connection on VIrginmedia - I stream media and play other games with no issues. Things like COD etc display me as open NAT and I don't get any disconnections - even during the long play sessions. I'm also hardwired in so it's not anything with my home Infrastructure. Bit of a long one this - I'm not looking for a silver bullet but just be good to understand that the disconnections are being looked into and please please fix before the DLC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please!! I'm worried my character will go on strike so I can't play :(
