I do know a lot about coding and you usually would take out all those portions from the core app and then add them into your modular expansion packs (aka dlc). This to me look alike they did last minute blocks in a full game that IF they did remove them from the core would break the core. This is probably due to the way the engine is running. In the glitch videos you see all the detail including pipes and wall braces etc i.e. the engine really creates a real world for the physics to work off of (a wall needs exterior material like brick but also needs studs and what not to build the frame). So taking out kings cross section at last minute might have literally collapsed the buildings in the rocket yard. Easiest to simply add a lock (invisible wall made to look like doors) and open it with a dlc. 9.5 mb is only big enough to contain scripts and metadata/configs.

    Building a map to put in the game world is relatively quick in comparison to the coding side. So that can quite easily be included in the game, but how the story/events etc are done requires more work. If 9.5mb is only scripts/configs it is more than 100,000 lines of code/settings. If that is libraries/dlls then we're talking even more lines. Lets not forget that all this also needs testing before release. This is not stuff completed and then cut out of the game, this is incomplete stuff and that's easy to see.

  • I saw the second video last night and i agree that that is just a map waiting all the config "stuff" and will be a lot more then 9.5 maybe as an in game update. The kings cross one though is pretty much all done, and seems to even have objectives in them. Now they may be reserved as event areas (remember the garden where the queen envoy is used to be locked too) and we could all be jumping to conclusions when all bungie wanted to hold back a surprise for later.

  • I agree, there's probably not just DLC things but other things that bungie have in place - like VoG as well, it was there at the start but not unlocked at release. This is just a side note, but I also don't know what was included in the expansion packs, I bought the digital copy and downloaded and installed the expansion packs at the same time. While we don't have access to it, some of the content related to these packs is installed - I'm not saying this is what is being shown in these videos, but it's still content on the HDD whether the game picks any of that up yet or not is hard to say.
