Something Destiny needs: An in-game map. (Destiny)

If you're in a story mission or just an explore mission, there are waypoints and the arrow on your radar. Inside buildings in explore the arrow points to the nearest exit. I really don't see the need for a map on top of this.

All the waypoint marker shows is the direction of the first waypoint in the series, though — it doesn't give you any indication of how far the overall journey will be, which in some cases is a very substantial distance indeed. If you'd prefer to patrol a certain area picking up scavenging or kill missions, then being given a scout mission to the entrance to the Hive tunnels (say) can be rather annoying.

An interactive (and slightly more detailed) map would be useful for getting an idea of which areas you've explored, too. A lot of these rusted old buildings do look quite similar, after all…
