Bully Beta - Bullworth Academy (ANALYSIS)

In today's episode, I'm analyzing the beta Bullworth Academy, including the removed 3rd floor, the roof and other beta design leftovers. (read more)

[@TheNathanNS]

If anyone cares, I set up a discord server, link in description.

[@theslendergamer1006]

TheNathanNS likethese beta videos and I like you tell us loads of information keep it up

[@wizzykms]

TheNathanNS Hiii

[@TheNathanNS]

+BUBONIC RAT Hey!

[@bahaalgeria8402]

nice dude watch my chanel pls me too play Bully in my chanel and thnax

[@parthedits1620]

awesome video

[@daireoruadhachain1667]

Can’t lie I never noticed that the main school building had windows for three floors

[@KISSbestfan]

The whole beta concept with Crabblesnitch being a main antagonist, is to me clearly inspired by James Kirkwood novel "Good Times Bad Times". I reccomend you to check it out. Main character goes to a new school, the headmaster tries to befriend him, he gains his best friend there etc.

[@Devitt12]

they removed half of the game smh

[@iTz-Potatoo]

Mike The Potato because the ps2 couldn't handle

[@michaelhall736]

Itz POTATO I don't know about that. Think how massive of a game GTA San Andreas was, a !ot bigger than this game, so I'm pretty sure it could've handled it.

[@iTz-Potatoo]

CanadianBread maybe it's rockstar. They scrap good things i guess

[@tashazfine]

San Andreas is way bigger than Bully but doesn't have nearly as much detail. If Bully DID include all of these I doubt it'd be playable on the PS2 honestly. Quite unfortunate to see so much cut out, but looking forward to Bully 2 one day...practically no limits besides time.

[@tashazfine]

*Graphic wise ofcourse

[@d5rcy]

I love that this 10 year old game still gets attention and Beta discoveries! It's grest

[@nickgames3149]

The thing I see in “what’s wrong with this?” Is that Russell is in his ripped outfit and there is gary in his Halloween outfit and a elf walking around and of course the walking punching bag

[@rainyday9174]

1:55 in bully trailer 1, the railings of the third floor of the school can be seen from the first floor a few seconds into the trailer in similar angle to the screen shot included in this video. however in both the trailer and the screen shot no pupils can be seen up their, suggesting that the third floor was cut very early in development. Also the stairs where the same as they where in the final version of the game, so maybe the third floor was accessible only through the unused elevator.

[@HeySlickThatsMe]

5:30 so punching bag is a character? reminds me of Saints row 2 where cutscene props are characters , in one of dev livestreams they changed the player to "Shower Curtain" ... bad things happened

[@TheNathanNS]

Yep, the punching bag is an actual character. I presume it's so Bryce has something to punch (when in the gym)

[@kauemachado1447]

yep

[@VerminGames]

8:04 PussySlayer69 is playing Rocket League

[@immrcontagious9096]

Boy what are you doing in my channel 88 likes

[@JTmaxx]

Even though I'm two years late, I may have figured out what would have been accessed from the garage shutter in the basement. The mineshaft you can see the tunnel to on the beach It doesn't really add up. I think the mine would go down beneath the school if anything. (including beneath the basement)

[@ericcanelo8615]

The disabled elevator was going to be used to access the basement because “The Hole” was going to play a bigger part in the school rather than a one use and done. Like with the boxing midgets, we were going to be able to make kids fight each other. The elevator is also how mostly everyone appears at the last fight in Chapter 1. (I strongly believe)

[@jrdaguaniable]

Great vídeo man! your beta bully vídeos are awesome

[@Xegethra]

At 5:46 they do this a lot do Rockstar, they never always match up the interior to the exterior, it would be nice if they did but most of the time the interior model is just nonsensically different. It does sort of break the believability of it and in particular with San Andreas I wished they'd bother to match them up better. I remember playing that and going into houses and thinking that yeah, this is the wrong interior. I generally love their maps, on the outside....they seem to care less about how places look on the inside...while it isn't the most important aspect of their games, more care in them would make it fit together a little better. It's a bit of a shame that the Academy only has two floors but still looks like it has 3. At least with that one you can reason that perhaps for an in game world reason, the second floor was deemed unsafe, or maybe school budget cutbacks could no longer maintain that level so to save money they decided to seal it off or something.

[@ytgc-royalewarex5190]

Don't forget there is an elevator in the basement that was originally was supposed to be used to gain access from the basement to the roof. This was cut for unknown reasons. In the final game, the elevator is broken down and unusable.

[@SoCalKev]

Bull worth is based on a couple of schools in the eastern USA like Spaulding HS in the New Hampshire . Also some schools in the hamptons in New York.

[@Rajomega1]

Students worse as this?

[@bigmanborisjohnson8982]

awesome video nathan!!

[@TheCreamyJ]

Another great video mate

[@darkability1393]

You can see the 3rd floor in game if you go onto the grass near the girls dorm and use your camera.

[@BibieBully]

i’m obsessed with this game 🥺🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍 hope bully 2 coming soon ..

[@parzival9651]

3:52 Well THIS is in the alpha stages of Bully so it's possible that the storyline was completely different and the final showdown wasn't even an idea

[@ivan.gomez19]

The third floor might be the connection between the "roof door" (including the stairs) and the top of the building.

[@weirdface1846]

5:28 the way davis steals karen's book?

[@iTz-Potatoo]

Nathan should do more bully beta vids

[@brennocalderan2201]

i see the Academy arquiteture style, i imagine an academy that was founded in the 1920's

[@MXOY99]

Unless it's the early 1920s, sure. I personally thought more the 1910's. (A year late, sorry. New to this guy.)

[@snowwhite19376]

The main school building looks likes from the mid 1800s

[@noahwhite792]

Love your vids

[@trashboat2165]

6:10 could've been the beta auto shop maybe

[@RetroAP]

Would be neat if someone developed a mod that would make the map make sense i.e. adding exteriors that line up with the interiors and vice versa. A complete overhaul that will add new elements to this beautiful gem.

[@nekipeh7373]

5:32 Maybe its me, but i dont remember that "Devil shield/crest" above the entrance?

[@ivan.gomez19]

I remember that i got inside in the Roof Access once, but it was because of a bug.

[@dddanielharryzam]

They probably removed the roof access because you could have the option to jump off the building. It's just my theory

[@paulheenan9098]

Nah, just Rockstar having PS3 era ambitions while stuck in the PS2 era, forcing them to scrap almost all of the game so the PS2 could run it. If they had waited a little while longer, we could have seen something more on the scale of GTA 4 instead of GTA 3.

[@NazarenoGerez]

​@@paulheenan9098and, for some reason, they didn't add back all of that for Scholarship Edition.

[@patrickwildschut5750]

perfect vid! make more!

[@tristain1119]

that punching bag made me laugh, a bit too much.

[@babygorillagod7638]

Can you do a Academy Comparison comparing Bullsworth to an actual Academy one could actually attend in real life. I Understand this is a toddler video[2 years old] and you may have other projects, just an idea if your ever hunting through the wilderness for some content.

[@somebodyoncetoldmetheworld7990]

Why does your game look so fantastic? Is that a texture mod?

[@ii_oxfitsjenson-roblox2143]

4:48 this has no point in the video but i find it entertaining how jimmy just shoots trent in the head and he flies to the floor

[@SSUMH]

0:35 that book flying away

[@xaviertomato6831]

I wish they give them more time than we could of had all this

[@HanstheBoss1]

Edgar use a elevator

[@huntereatshunter4986]

[@garrysmith1029]

[@wesleyrosa6122]

[@petewilson5721]

[@TechProYoutube]

I wish i could access 3rd floor and yes I tired the mod when I try to play it crashes I click on play on the main menu and it craches

[@Amandiris]

[@user-lh3xy7ki4z]

[@chiveCakes]

You're discord sound tricked me D: I thought I was done with trick sounds when I deleted Skype T^T

[@TheNathanNS]

When was there a discord sound? I did try to remove most "pings" :|

[@chiveCakes]

TheNathanNS there is a ping at 8:44. Thank you for making the effort of removing the pings, most people just leave them in the video. Keep up the great work! Love your videos.

[@callmestephen5698]

In bully trailer 1 it shows them on the second floor not the firsts floor

[@callmestephen5698]

I ment third floor

[@ZaKaria-tp9zf]

[@FreeAimDog]

[@JasonCovers1]

0:26 anyone see Gary walking around normally?? XD

[@weirdface1846]

[@eyelesscrown7346]

[@classicmunchies5403]

NICE M8

[@rono7964]

What mod are you using mod link

[@johnmichael4806]

How do you get the possessed punching bag to spawn in the game? Was it a mod or through hex editing?

[@walterpetersen776]

John Michael hex editing

[@pizzaforlifeyaheard]

John Michael yes he used mods but he used the punching bag texture to replace the character lmao lol

[@anonymousyoutuber9480]

A tribe called quest!

[@heeroyuy809]

Lol. Why did they bother their selves to make an interior and in the end they cancelled! Too much awesome things they throw

[@SILVER-ws2wf]

3rd floor bathroom. Wtf?

[@frankwestthehedgehog5513]

👍

[@Khan-wz4kp]

What trainer is that

[@SergioTheKingReal]

Cant u enable those files though?

[@pizzaforlifeyaheard]

Sergio the King yes I think if you have mods or hack into the files

[@Bella_Rei]

Why is it that we know about GTA:V's development, we know about RDR's development, we know about Max Payne 3 and L.A. Noire's development, all straight from the mouth of Rockstar Games, but then no one ever talks about what went through their heads when they developed Bully.

[@parzival9651]

Because Jack Thompson

[@garrysmith1029]

Just read all the comments for no reason
