The ambient loops named '''city_amb*''' are cut at a different length than in the English version, sometimes significantly longer. Bungie West may have originally been using full-length samples from a sound library and later decided to cut them back after the localizer had received a copy of the game assets. The shorter sounds in the English version still loop perfectly and save on memory; some of them also cut out undesirable sounds such as individual cars and emergency vehicles passing by the listener, which would be disconcerting in a game world with no traffic on the road. | |||

Thus, of all the "city ambient" loops, only '''city_amb_t06a''' uses the same sound data as in English Oni. | Thus, of all the "city ambient" loops, only the 5-second '''city_amb_t06a''' uses the same sound data as in English Oni. | ||
These longer durations are consistent across levels, the occurrence being as follows: | These longer durations are consistent across levels, the occurrence being as follows: | ||
