Possibly the code itself to use Displacement Mapping, however changing level and texture data to take advantage of it would GREATLY increase the patch file size, and would take quite a bit of time to modify every needed texture for displacement mapping. I think we might see a few mod projects to add displacement mapping into the game, assuming the engine allows for it, however even from the start I thought it was odd that they were planning on adding such a huge feature into a patch.
