Can we beat underground 2 with only SUVS? www.twitch.tv/kuruhs Live now

[@sukhdevr3489]

Yess. I mentioned this idea ages ago lol.

[@vercus6271]

NOW THAT'S a proper challenge) Good luck spending hours on demo tuning that H2 into best drift rig out there

[@Sniper65615]

I didnt noticed it was released recently. I tought it was released a few years prior. Probably my brain is like having a bad memory moment.

[@Joshi869]

Same

[@mazda787bgroupc]

It's been a while since he posted NFS Undercover content

[@m.tammekivi]

The mod was redone

[@proletariandreams69]

Small correction: To my knowledge, no, Black Box didn't pull a 180 after Prostreet's divisive reception with Undercover. Undercover was meant to more or less be like this from the start, and it actually had the longest development cycle of them all, starting as a successor to MW2005, which is why internally it's even labelled as "MW2". The main problem with it, is that due to its long development cycle, a lot of things changed over time, and as a studio BB gradually started experiencing problems internally, so the project slowly entered development hell. Prostreet was meant to be more of a filler release until the next "proper" entry was finished, although I find that questionable at best, since so much work went into that game, I simply cannot take it as anything more than a marketing strategy to hype Undercover and shift focus from PS, possibly because they didn't believe in its success, or weren't allowed to publicly display it. Only that it never was due to its troubled development, so we ended up with an unfinished game with a disjointed and nonsensical plot, inferior graphics and physics to PS (which, as revealed by some beta builds that surfaced a couple of years ago, had both superior graphics and vastly superior physics, particularly damage models), and plagued by wonky AI, poor balancing, and technical issues. It still manages to be a fun game despite being simply unfinished (the Wii/PS2 ports are even messier and yet crazy fun), but is it a good game, objectively speaking? No. It's easily one of the worst entries, but that also made it a worthwhile endeavor for modders. We wouldn't have gotten the Reformed mod if it didn't release in such a poor state. It's just too bad it flopped both critically and commercially...

[@luisortega8085]

NFS Undercover isn't the best NFS game, but man I loved playing it, especially with the heavy bloom. I wish it got remade..

[@proletariandreams69]

@@luisortega8085 The heavy bloom was introduced to hide the rough and unifinished nature of Tri-City, and its general lack of polish and detail. There are some regions which are visibly unfinished, up in the north/northwest region. There won't ever be any remake or remaster of the Black Box games either, same for the classic era titles. In order to remaster these games, they'd have to relicense everything all over again, which is guaranteed to come at a loss, both financially, and in terms of content (good luck relicensing the music tracks and all cars along with their corresponding parts, for one).

[@RIPzippyshare]

It wasn't a 180, it was a complete nosedive.

[@VictorGiordan2]

The port for the PS2 was the NFS that I played the most on the console believe it or not (but I played U2, MW and Carbon more on PC). It ran better than previous entries and had really nice graphics. I kind of consider it a PS2 exclusive title since the PC and PS3 versions were that terrible and completely different mess of a game. To this day I come back through emulators or original hardware to play Undercover for PS2.

[@proletariandreams69]

@@VictorGiordan2 Sorta same fam. The PS2 version of Undercover is my favorite when it comes to this game, despite the AI being broken and Carbon being visibly used as the base for it - the menus are literally retextured versions of it, for instance, and the handling is also closer to it and Prostreet than the PC/PS3/X360 counterparts. I'm also fond of the UG1 and UG2 ports for the system, unmodded they are actually superior to the PC ports in some regards, such as superior shaders, weather effects, and reflections. Then there's obviously the PS2 version of HP2, which is easily the definitive version of that game.

[@LordLightborn]

Undercover has so much derpy physics moments, it's funny af.

[@Spherz]

I did this before! The pine creek & Douglas race is nearly impossible without using micro drifts to gain speed, probably the biggest challenge I’ve ever faced in any racing game I did pick the gallardo for my pinkslip though because AWD cars tend to boost better than RWD

[@Darktotaled]

i remember playing this game long time ago. Got a viper and put a low bumper on it. I could just bulldoze anything because everything you hit got flung up

[@toocozycanti]

I actually went to the store back in the day looking to get undercover but got pro street as it was all they had. That was a great surprise as to how good it was…those multiuser battles split screen on the Highway battles were so fun

[@bogdanstroe7967]

I juat finished the game few hours ago for the first time and now u post this, perfect timing;)

[@milesdipperion9462]

btw reformed mod makes this challenge easier due to pinkslip cars being pre-upgraded, unlike in vanilla game source: i've made the pinkslips edits back in 2020 for this mod

[@vaulthunterfromterra4053]

This challenge becomes trivial once you realize the final boss’s Lambo can be used early because they made all the Boss cars as a DLC for some reason.

[@vaulthunterfromterra4053]

The car pack is completely worthless if you’ve already beaten the game btw, all it does is give you free access to their car before you ever have to race them.

[@m_5373]

5:23 Me too, playing Undercover on PS2, since then I never stopped listening Pendulum!

[@neddy1287]

Another one that I managed to beat the drift king in Need for Speed Prostreet with an almost stock Toyota AE86 as the only upgrade was the the suspension. It was fair challenging but at the same time rewarding

[@a_p_vox]

Hope you get to try the upcoming version of Undercover Exposed. I like its concept more than Reformed, to be honest.

[@radshiba8107]

5:26 I totally agree! (But I has MotorStorm Arctic edge previously, but not notised yet)

[@marekciostek1458]

15:41 That truck disappear for a moment XD

[@markvd1008]

11:29 I actually found the gameplay of ProStreet to be too overwhelming of the totaled/damage system for me as a kid and quit after a while. I did complete Most Wanted more than once though.

[@Exponaut_R-01]

The 360 and PS3 take is stuck in 2006 honestly. It was true until the later models and it was never a problem again. Also the Wii? Overheating???

[@zeroslastwind6571]

Had to check if my music was playing, glad to see you have a similar taste in music 🤘

ok but i never expected Christina Aguilera's Dirrty in this video that one of my fav songs of all time

I can see Chase Linch not driving a BMW replaced with Rose's GT2 same as PS2 version NFS Undercover

honestly when i first tried the pc version of undercover after playing it on ps2 it fel like your controls had 1second delay

Can't believe that GTA VI closer that Black Box era NFS remake/remaster

14:00 Batman 😂😂 🦇🦇

[@batuhanozel8673]

Do you know are they improving this mod? Because right now cops are underpowered and wall physics and crash physics are so bad

[@samarqureshi9381]

When undercover came out i beat it with no upgrades on ps3 cuz i wanted the pagani zonda F lol

[@qasimkurashi1599]

Did I hear the soundtrack of NFS 2 SE in your video outro?

[@dwhizk]

I love project reformed

[@kishaluv3j]

Cool video kuru

[@Pendragon31]

You should try to play Midnight Club Los Angeles Remix for the PSP....Its basically Midnight club LA with Midnight Club 3 Feeling and Midnight club 2 Map

[@lockout5731]

wishing you the best for undercover can you beat the run with only fast cars and no nitro good luck

[@possibly_ben]

6:48 to quote a certain abridged prince... "THAT'S NOT FUNNY, IT'S NEVER BEEN FUNNY, *IT'S NEVER GONNA BE FUNNY"* aight i'll give you this one 24:02, it's somewhat amusing

I had 3 PS3s over time and they never overheated

[@realmustangboy6437]

game is fun my xbox 360 doesn't overheat, it does get very hot though, but just like the later xbox consoles. i guess it was the first version that were trash. also title should be: Can you beat NFS Undercover without Buying Upgrades? (because you did end up getting upgrades either way, you just didn't buy them.)

[@zahimues5385]

did you mod this game ?

[@BlueShift2000]

I'm glad I bought this game a few years back on Steam, even though it is unfinished, it is still better than Unbound or any other game from Ghost Games.

[@1--y]

No it's not lmao 💀💀

[@BlueShift2000]

​@faa_qaaf I mean, if I had the choice between getting my balls cut of or playing any Ghost Games for 5 hours. I would cut my balls of, without hesitation. Alteast they gave us a new low

​@faa_qaaf it is tho its over hated its one of the best

[@elionthatblock9612]

​@@1--yclearly it is the vibes in this game are unmatched

[@RIPzippyshare]

@@JAHAM3S_ It deserves all the hate, easily takes the title of being the worst in the franchise for so many reasons, there's a reason why it's the only NFS i've ditched in the first hour.

​@@zahimues5385 just pirate them

Spoiler alert: he just pirates them. That's what everyone does. They aren't sold any more anyway, stop caring

[@shiraku5538]

@@lemonov3031 Problem is, most sites that i download from are quite bugged or just dont have certain things. In ProStreet, for example, half the available cars i see people using are just completely unavailable. Same for races. I wanna know if there was a specific place he got the games from.

probably

[@tintan1235]

Best game

[@Fondlycraft1]

Where i can buy it and play? Steam? EpicGames?

Not for sale anymore. Think you'll have to pirate it.

[@JeanLucTaylor]

The one playing between 8:31 and 8:42 I believe may be Worthy from the RWBY Volume 9 soundtrack

[@Rockport1911]

Squeezing the most out of Undercover is like hitting that Ketchup bottle for the last drop that wasnt there to begin with. I completely lost faith in NfS when this released back in the day, I will watch interesting videos about it but it will never make it onto my hardrive :) Its nice that the modding communitie tries to improve but ressources are better off directed to better NfS titles...

[@vladimirbukvic7455]

Bro playing nfs undercover from wish

[@Chomik4499]

I beat Undercover without spending any money and choosing the worst cars I could. Still easy and boring.

[@MaLilBunny]

What are you talkin homie xbox 360 was OG !!!! Ps3 60gb to they broke 100 times but still those where the best console generatiom ever how can you say something like that...

[@thisemptyworm4677]

damn bro. why you gotta disrespect 7th gen consoles 😮

[@cracyzero666rat]

The old ps3 where bad, when they made the slim version it was better.

You're totally wrong about Prostreet sales. It sold more than 8 million copies... How can that be bad sales?

Both the speedometer and map designs look bad in my opinion

how is he playing this is he playing through an emulator or capture card does anybody know i want to play these so bad with mods

[@itsyaboiLegend]

We can agree Undercover is a really bad game. But I guess the more I lose the more I’m inclined to agree. (That’s my philosophy)

[@Sam36192]

Only mods can save it, especially reformed

[@tylermccarthy2276]

Undercover is one of my favorite NFS games man. Loved that shit

this game was so much better on ps2, I tried playing the PC version and I couldn't believe how much worse it was

made me sad how much trash you talk on ps3 and xb360 lol, ps4 and ps5 and new xbox are all garbage. i still use my original 360 and ps3 and sometimes wii to this day lol

[@roflBeck]

Facts. I still use a Wii for Gamecube games, and my 360 still sees use every once in a while. Although I do remember the launch model of the 360 broke down a lot, good thing I didn't get one til Halo 3 came out lol.

@@MaLilBunny mad because he's right :))) worst NFS in history.

[@axl1632]

To be honest, if you want to play this game; obligatory you had to install the Reformed mod, because, let's face it; It's *UNPLAYABLE* in their vanilla condition, same we can apply with NFS 2015, period.
