I recently read a thread from Titan1 about adding space combat into destiny. I said this yesterday and I still feel like it is an awesome idea that Bungie should add. Obviously they probably couldn't get it running by release but in an update later on. Space combat would add a whole new element to Destiny to make it even more awesome! This would also give people a better reason to upgrade their ships.

I don't think it would add anything meaningful to the game... It would effectively be a dogfighting minigame between actual gameplay locations.
