Noob question - Patrol 101

Right, I hope someone can help. First time playing Destiny and I have the above mission which I can't seem to start. I've checked a few explanations and I get that it is a "free roam" mode and that I need to look out for "green beacons" or hexagonal icons on the map but I cannot see any! I suspect that it is because I am only nearly at level 5 and that I need to do a few story missions but I cannot find a definitive answer. Anyone have any ideas?

    • What story missions have you done? You do have to do a few on each planet before you have access to patrol it

    • 1 idea: Take your destiny disc and burn it. If it's digital, burn the console.

    • Shame you're on Xbox or I'd have joined you and helped explain things. When in orbit go to Set Destination, select Earth (Cosmodrome) and they'll be a largish icon with an arrow in it (I'm not on right now or I'd post pics). Click on that, hit Launch and it'll take you to the Cosmodrome. Once in, press the pad in the middle to pull out your Ghost. You'll see three beacons which indicate patrols. Each icon means something different. Travelling to other areas gives you other beacons. A traffic cone symbol is kill enemies and collect what they drop. A Ghost-like symbol is scan. A circle with a star is a target. A clock is an energy spikes. A steering wheel is a scout (travel to location and stand there on the diamond until complete). Skull and crossbones are Taken enemies. A central square and four smaller outer squares is kill enemies. Once you've completed the number and types of patrols, its complete. Feel free to request pictures if you're having trouble!

    • Pull your ghost out, it will show where beacons are. Do 5 of these beacons to complete that quest.

    • If you press the 'view' button on your XB controller, you'll highlight patrol missions in the area.
