Open world PVP (Destiny)

I think the biggest practical challenge to this would be that the open world maps aren't really designed with human opponents in mind. In the Crucible a ton of polish was applied to each map placing cover and carefully controlling lines of sight to make a mostly fair experience. On Patrol, assuming the maps didn't change, you often won't have much or any real cover. If it were Halo I'd immediately write this off as a horrible idea. I pretty much hated Reach's version of Blood Gulch because of how wide open you were to be shot from nearly anywhere. Destiny plays a bit differently though. With custom loadouts and Sparrows it just might maybe all work out. :)
