The "strike" doesn't being until you hit the restricted respawning zone- evidenced by the fact that in those beginning areas, there are often players running around who are not on your fireteam- once you cross that threshold, and it is just the three of you, then the strike has started- I join a playist to complete a strike, not run around in the open area before it killing enemies that do not help me acheive my goal- if you want to take your time and kill the enemies in the non-strike area, either get left behind and deal with it or go play patrol

Agreed completely, xLethal. It's not like strikes are completely unique maps like dungeons in other MMOs; a huge portion of the strikes are shared areas between Darkness Zones - Cerberus Vae III on Mars is a prime example of this. If I'm in a level 24 matchmade strike, I don't want to have to waste time killing a whole bunch of level 14-17 mobs between areas that would be there on basic patrol.
