That is a good concept and I'm getting the idea we may not see this over night, but it could be implemented into Patrol in a further expansion or update. Side Quest should be side [i]Stories[/i] that complement the overall lore of the game's story. Thus far Patrol succeeds in this, but the diversity is mostly brought by the Public events which are at time hard to find. I find that exploration is fun in this game and has great amazing detail to the living environments. But a good concept to implement would be for example Portal 2's use of visual story hints like graffiti on the walls and maybe journal logs or crime scene investigations that have some small story tid bits. Thus leading to my idea that maybe random public events or specific patrols that lead to sides story missions should be provided or expanded upon. Like for example, complete a specific type of public even or patrol provides a clue that would lead to a story mission that only can be unlock through exploration and timing with a specific mission. Sort of like the Exotic bounties but this time with actual cinematic or log entries you find and learn things. This would lead to a new story mission that when played gives some story lore no matter how simple changes our perspective of the world of Destiny. I hope this makes sense, lol. What really needs to be done is a expansion of the [u]current [/u] games Patrol mission mode, not a complete throw away and start over, that would be ridiculous for the game is really fun.

  • Like the idea for more cinematics, not final fantasy amount but something to get you more invested.

    Not Final Fantasy amount at all. I'm thinking more along the lines of what we already have but just at the beginning and end of each level, or maybe a log entry we get to listen to that gives us more details (similar to what Mass Effect does on side missions). Like for example Dead Orbit communicates with us through our Ghost to give you a mission that will then unlock on the director menu or within the patrol some sort of brief 2-3 step mini story within patrol that gives you like 50 rank rather than just 10 or 25 (so that the time invested is worth the reward too). Simply put, the current patrol is fun and great, but I hope they add more variety then the typical, "Dead Orbit (or other character) needs help with the elimination/collection of these enemies/items" in the future. Even if it was merely more dialogue from Ghost Dinklage to give these side missions more substance. We just need that small bit of story just to give the missions a bit more power. (I really love the game in it's current state. I'm just sharing this because my imagination runs with hope for so much more as the game get's it's expansions I mean we have like 10 years with this franchise to enjoy the changes and growth).

  • This would be cool but again the issue is that a lot of people won't see this content also getting a long ass mission while your trying to patrol can be annoying without skippable cut scenes.
