Always connected (Destiny)

As an aside, I lost internet connection last night (for the first time in months, honestly), and got kicked out of the Beta. Now sure, it's a Beta and pretty much would have needed online regardless. The fact is, though, that if this had occurred in the actual game, I would have been screwed out of any story mode progress or anything else I was doing. And I agree, stats and public events are cool, but for something that is so minor in this game (referring to public events), it's really not worth making this game required to be connected at all times.

I got disconnected during a story mission in the Beta. When I reconnected and selected that story mission again, it loaded the checkpoint where I was right before I got disconnected. I lost very little progress, and absolutely didn't have to restart the whole mission.
