Being able to start missions while in the patrol space. There's now not really a distinction between "patrol mode" and "going to the start of a mission." A simple idea, but the reality of it is such a joy in comparison to how things were. This, of course, was something the community was suggesting pretty much since the beginning.

Heh - this didn't happen on last-gen consoles not because Bungie hadn't thought about it... but purely for memory reasons. I remember talking to a dev about the start of the Crota raid - he was so disappointed that they couldn't figure out a way to even SIMULATE actual players on the other side of the Hellmouth while you waited for the opening bridge to form. He felt it was jarring and non-immersive... but memory constraints kept them from doing anything about it.

This gen can handle it, so it's in. :)
