720p video quality in 2024? Come on now, At least make it 108060fps, since it's gaming, or even better 4K60fps.

[@gilbert64]

[@emeraldkoala2543]

​@@ncard00 It's an old game. Also why are you saying this in a reply instead of your own comment?

[@MinikitSophie]

Seeing how rare purple studs used to be, it's always surprising when some of the later games just give you a bunch.

[@cillianennis9921]

Then again later games economies are very different to the complete saga. I think the complete saga has a balanced economy that is easy to finish compared to Lego Marvel superheroes 2 which has a very unbalanced economy so you can go forever without enough money to buy anyone since it is hard to get a 100,000 & most characters are round 500,000. the first marvel superheroes has the same problem but it has a cheat code for the 2x red brick which kinda helps you beat the game in a reasonable time. the 2x's availability really can break some of the later Lego games balance with economy having studs be near impossible to get

[@stoopidapples1596]

I think thats the case with some of the earlier titles too. It seems to randomly vary whether the Devs wanted purple studz to be super prominent or not.

[@magolor152]

​​@@cillianennis9921so tldr you either have very little money or so much money that you may never run out if you know what you're doing

[@cillianennis9921]

@@magolor152 yep. Either find a level that gives you so much money that you can just replay it until you have enough or waste time in the open world getting nada. Like I could maybe have done better but I played with my brothers who where impatient & never played levels too busy in the open world roleplaying as Custom characters. In the end when I wanted the 2x in Marvel superheroes 2 I could never reach the amount as it was just high enough that you'd be able to buy most characters before you reached it. Making them waste my time. I like DC supervillians balance due to the GTA style cop system making it easy to if you're good at the game get all the money you need without ever needing a red brick. But once you get like a few red bricks you have so much money you'll never run out. The red brick multipliers are the key to the characters being unlockable without too much time wasted but eventually picking up a silver stud can give you enough to buy every character ten times over. I think all you really need is the 2x 4x & 6x to max out the game the 8x & 10x are just over kill at that point since the multipliers stack. I do feel like the earlier games had the balance down perfectly but as they added more characters to stop you being able to buy everyone as soon as you did the side missions they made the balance off so much the games started to become boring as character took too long to get without the multipliers which before where only really needed to get all the red bricks. I think marvel superheroes 1 also is unbalanced but after a while you'll master it I just never mastered its sequel

I was wondering about the the number of purple studs in the game. Seems like they had the idea to make them a rare thing to find in a few levels early in LSW1 development and just forgot or gave up after finishing episode 1.

[@Siedemnastek]

They don't even exist in LSW1 lol. They were added there in TCS, but yeah seems like they gave up after Ep 1

[@charmandergamer1287]

@@Siedemnastek Makes me wonder. If you had to place 2 an episode, where would you place them in Episodes 2-6?

[@12171010011010]

If you play Lego Indiana Jones, the game that was made right after TCS, hidden purple studs are way more of a thing. It seems like they thought of them for TCS regarding the stud challenges and other random additions, and only included them in normal levels as an afterthought.

[@wile123456]

​@@Siedemnastek LSW1 was remastered for the complete saga, way more than LSW2 levels were touched up, so episode 1 was worked on later than the OT episodes. But that they aren't in episode 2 and 3 shows it was a scrapped idea or it was done by one level designer but wasn't agreed on with the rest of the level designers.

theres another purple stud in a story mission, in the rescuing the princess level if you take the elevator on the left in the final room you can shoot at tie fighters and it gives a purple stud along with a bunch of other stus

Part of this video be like: If you do this: game crashes If you do that: The game crashes If you unlock this and do that: The gamr crashes

[@BrickFighter13]

61: on the DS version of the game, on the title screen if you do the commands of “Up, Left, Down, Right, Up, Left, down, Right, Up, Left, Down, Right, R, L, Start, Select” you are given two new options in the menu called Debug and Debug Multiplayer

[@TheBoxyBear]

The missing trailers are in the PSP version of Lego Star Wars 2, accessible from the main menu. The Star Wars trailer is for the 2006 DVD set of the original trilogy that included a demo of Lego Star Wars 2. From identical strings to what the trailers are listed as in the menu, including the "Trailers" menu option, the order of the strings matching the PSP menu and the lack of Indiana Jones which PSP also lacked in that menu, it really seems like leftover strings from that version. The PSP port also included ports of boss levels from the first game, challenge mode and online multiplayer so it's likely development of both games were made alongside or that TCS was built off of the PSP version.

[@rickoddttc]

There is a hidden room is 4-4 where are can shoot tie fighters and if you shoot ten you get 20,000. One is a purple stud

[@whatsinameme5258]

I remember that. You are correct. That is easy to miss though, to be fair.

[@PieBathBob]

3:10 correct me if i'm wrong, but don't you also get a single purple stud from completing the secret tie fighter turret minigame in rescue the princess? (the one you access by going up one of the elevators in the final room)

[@expendableindigo9639]

I remember being confused why that Luke cutscene didn’t play! I remember it clearly but every time it didn’t play, I’d assume it would only play the first time you completed the level on your save file, or that it was exclusive to Lego Star Wars 2 (some of the content from LS1 was modified after all, like the Naboo ruined temple layout.) Between that, the Great Pit of Carkoon being combined with the Palace level on DS, and the party being encountered in a different order than the movie, there are a lot of interesting quirks in that level.

[@skibot9974]

Here’s a fact: In Lego Star Wars II with the Use Old Save extra you could play as characters from the first game in the second. Anakin could be dazed with the force in LGS2 but not the complete saga

Wow, there are so many things I didnt know about this game. I got really surprised. This video is absolutely brilliant. 💯 Didn't know the ones at: 2:07 (laughed so hard here) 2:12 2:30 (jawas are not allowed to drive a black speeder) 2:36 (possibly it's a softlock due the lost temple level not being in game) 2:48 (weird) 2:56 (even more weird) 3:45 (thats a bug due to the level being unfinished. On TCS for Android/IOS is sort of fixed) 4:00, 4:13 and 4:17 (the levels the devs used to build the bonus ones were the normal ones, so they left the doors there) 5:06 (didnt know there was a door there) 8:49 (left from LSW2)

I believe one difference between the two Wii versions of the game is that in the blue disc version, entering cheat codes will unlock their respective item, but won’t buy them while in the full color disc version, they buy the respective items for you.

The sliding thing is not useless. Having a friendly competition about who can do the longest slide because you are bored with another person and knowing that intel is very useful. And I'm surprised the in-game timer only goes up to 145 hours, that is actually useful info to know reaching that time limit isn't that hard when guides say it takes roughly 40 hours to 100% the game and that is if you doing an optimized run, doing 4 times that amount isn't that hard to do.

[@csharp3884]

Another useless fact is Lego Star Wars 2 timer maxes out at 75 hours. So the max for TCS is a little less than 2x (despite the length in movies being twice as long)!

Random fact I discovered as a kid on the Xbox 360 version: In level 1-3 when jumping in the hole to end the level if you use a lightsaber slash jump your character will skip the end of the level door and you will end up in an out of bounds area under the map. If you walk to far you will end up in a death loop. I remember being really upset at this as a kid having to completely restart the level

You can make a Jedi's lightsaber disapear by double jumping and then sheathing the lightsaber and attacking in quick succecion, then holding the attack button.
