A moon jump shot of Runway

I reckon Runway was changed more than we think during it's construction. Things like a Motorbike would have been on it. Wouldn't it have been good to ride a bike? Seeing as we already had the Tank on Streets?

Realisticality

It's hard to believe that M, Q, and Moneypenny managed to get a briefing through to 007 on this high paced mission. There was supposed to be a motorbike (Right) but it got cut out in place of the Tank. That is also the reason that the biker is there in multiplayer characters. The bike was highly speculated and would have been an interesting feature. Also, the onyl reason the drone guns are on Runway, is because they couldn't be put on Dam (The Island). I think that there would have been nothing to do on Runway if the drone gun was on Dam.The Bike on Runway


Missile battery
Runway Mission PictureTake a long hard look at this Runway mission picture. Notice that the missile battery is not there. This also backs up the theory about the Dam drone gun being there to be destroyed so it couldn't shoot you out of the sky.Runway Missile battery
The Doors

There are doors on the side of the Runway and near the tank, there is nothng behind them, but we wonder if they ever had any purpose... Also, no 'this door is locked ' sign appears when we try to open them. So perhaps they weren't locked at one time.

DK Mode

Lots of people wonder why DK mode is such an easy cheat to get. My theory is that RARE wanted you to find the cheat menu. But of course, with the Internet, once one person had found it, it would spread like bread and butter (providing that the butter was fairly soft). Of course there's the other theory that Runway was a very big level once. But a fast paced escape made RARE choose to make it quicker.

So we think Runway was a level changed a lot, but probably not much we know about.
