I play far more patrol than anything else. I'd rather farm for 20 materials then waste 10 marks on it. Heck, I used to cash in spin metal for marks all the time. I have tons of that crap.
Wish they left the options for that as well.

What else are you going to spend marks on? Some gear you don't need or some weapons you already have? I'd say 10 marks for 20 materials is a better buy than 65 marks for 2-3 shards, or even worse, 150 marks for 2-3 energies.

Well, I would buy armor and guns and break them down for upgrade materials to upgrade my exotics faster. That's a waste now too tho.

Not necessarily, if you have a lot of legendary weapons, you'll still use your energies. And new gear and weapons with the DLC will introduce many new legendaries, ripe for upgrading. Maybe try switching your style up, add in some tiger strikes and less patrols. You'll love the amount of engrams that roll in after just a couple of strikes. You can still get many bounties done during strikes. And it tends to be a lot more exciting than Patrol, unless you're in the mood for something chill of course. Not telling you how to enjoy your game, just suggesting some efficient alternatives that may be beneficial and fun.

I'm honestly not a fan of strikes. I like the idea of going wherever I want to kill stuff, not following a set path. They basically made it all about strikes and raids now, not so much about open world.

what open world? am i missing something?
-
Apparently you are. You must have missed the options to patrol the planets. Yes, that means no set path, do whatever you want.

really, cause when i try to go where i want it tells me to turn back.
