Cosmodrome: Rocket yard and The Blast

So I have been playing around in D1 and noticed that both the Rocketyard and The Blast are patrol-able locations in the cosmodrome but are partially absent in D2 (I say partially because most of the rocketyard and all of The Blast are in sepiks strike). Why are these locations non patrol-able in D2? I ask because honestly the cosmodrome feels significantly more hollowed out in D2. And I’m quite confident SIVA is not the the reason because both the Divide and Gateway were in the plague lands patrol too and yet they are present. I’m not asking for them to be added now or anytime soon, because bungie has a lot on their plate right now. But why were they excluded in the first place?

  • Because they didnt port the whole cosmodrome. Like they said in beyond light.

  • The answer is simple. It's not because Bungie is being lazy, or cheap, or greedy or anything like that. It's a matter or simplicity and efficiency. The Cosmodrome only exists in D2 for new light players and their opening campaign. All of the parts that are not necessary for that introduction campaign was stripped away to make it stream lined and to keep the file size manageable.

  • It bugs me more that they didn't even care to use the post siva version of the map they made available. Ever evolving indeed....

    • All they needed to do was finish the Grottos and, along with putting the already-finished Rocketyard & Refinery areas, the Cosmodrome would be a complete patrol area. The Cosmodrome as it was released just proved that Bungie can't even recycle content properly.

      • Because Bungie were like “uhhhh we actually regret adding the cosmodrome and are gonna focus on new content instead of adding it back fully” Then why add it in the first place?? This screams game-dev incompetence.

      • These area are locked because they are infested by siva

        • Bungie announced years ago that the cosmodrome Will not be at full parity as it was in destiny one that They had to make sacrifices by closing off rest of The area in patrol only accessible through strikes and nightfalls.
