Anyone else noticing more connection errors? (Destiny)

I seriously hope Bungie flips the Sim City switch somewhere down the line and drops the "online only" bits or something.

For functional stability with constantly-active seamless matchmaking, Destiny was architected to run high-level mission scripting and stuff on dedicated servers. It's highly unlikely that there's a separate local execution path that could be enabled with a "Sim City switch", and it probably wouldn't be trivial to make that happen.

I'll grant you that there's probably no "Easy Button" fix for this, but you've got to agree there's SOMETHING wrong when Destiny barfs me back to the Dashboard saying "You're not connected to the internet"...while my wife is sitting next to me watching Netflix on her laptop - clearly my router is still connected to the internet just fine. That's Bungie's ball to return.
