I think it was just an analogy. Flight based missions are too big a project to be released in an update. As much as people complain about the glitches in the raids, and xur not selling ammo synths, I seriously doubt it's a good idea to introduce what would basically be an entirely new gametype

I dunno man re-read it cuz I think I'm right.. That's how destiny rolls they've done this veiled description before.. Remember hard Crota "it will become harder to regain health" aka no chalice.. They try to be fancy lol

Remember hard Crota "it will become harder to regain health" aka no chalice..

To me this update just sounded like a pretty way to say, "hey, we've got an update coming, but it's not ready yet. It's so close, you could say its "in orbit," but we're not ready to bring it in for a landing [i]juuust[/i] yet." There's just too much that would need to be changed if it were going to be something as huge as flight based missions. Like what weapons and ammo a ship would have, and ways to change it, not to mention where these missions would be located, as the few screens we have of space are not nearly large enough or interactive to do much with it. Not to mention the story lines they'd have to include in order to even give us a reason to be out in space shooting things. Who are we shooting at? Why? How? Where? There are no space maps. We have [i]none[/i] of the foundation or groundwork laid for that kind of unnecessary gameplay. Literally, none. That's a HUGE thing, with its own huge problems, that they'd be stupid to add overnight. I just wouldn't get your hopes up is all. You're talking about adding an entirely new game to an existing game. Adding an entirely new raid would be much easier. I'm not saying I think they'll add a new raid, I'm just saying that as difficult as that would be to implement and add in an update, what you're asking for is 10 times more complex. I think it's more likely to be something small, but welcome. Like more vault space. Or queens wrath. Something like that.
