If you glitch to the main island early, you can build the train stations and can unlock the Emerald Night early as well!

[@GuardianSaviour-Shorts]

can u?

[@peggycummins4713]

​@@GuardianSaviour-Shortsnote:You would rather do the game normally first the glitch is really hard so you should unlock the main island first or go do some hard work which might make you rage quit please take my advice I don't want you rage quiting I want you to enjoy the game

[@thesuperlegendsandcartoons]

Trooper

[@BananaIsScary]

You can’t activate train stations until the end of chapter 3

[@gamingwithlukeJToH]

2:32 _"and it _*_went through ALL OF THEM LIKE THEY'RE MADE OF LEG-"_* that had me dying.

[@xfaresknightx1289]

LOL

[@sonicguyver7445]

A friend of mine pointed out when Frank talks about the 65 superbuilds he mentions the 65 places he accidentally destroyed last week. He interpreted that as meaning the superbuilds were the places Frank had destroyed. So that could explain how the Apollo Island dish is gone and needs to be rebuilt. And I had seen that color gun effecting Lego items, but I only knew about the pallet on Apollo Island. So all the ones you showed are news to me. And one last detail with how they messed up porting the game is the miner's headlamp. In the Wii U version, it was directional, and you could see the shift in light and shadow as you moved. But in the ports, it's just nebulous bubble of light that moves with you.

[@theyoshiadventures5841]

1:48 My guess as to why that hangar in the Lego City Airport lacks collision on it’s doors is that after the Colossal Fossil Hustle, you escape with the T-Rex skeleton and the hangar opens up for you to put it inside, not only that the hangar also opens up for the gang you arrest in that area, the hangar also opens for the area’s time trial. It could simply be that the developers forgot to add collision for when the hangar is actually closed, not sure if this issue is in the Wii U version though.

[@just.a.stickman]

When I played LEGO City Undercover on Switch the hangar was always open, so it is strange that it is closed in the other versions UPDATE: I think it is a false memory because when I played the game recently the hangar was closed

[@OutdoorEffectsLtd]

I always called it “my shed” a.k.a hanger😂

[@dominikinfante9002]

i made a video of this 11 months ago

[@marctendo]

I love that this channel is popping off with lcu content!

[@Gab157_Italy]

Yup

[@PhysicsareGreat]

Exactly. I wonder if there'll be speedrunning facts or something.

[@Windows_Error123]

The game of my childhood... Someone's still playing it!!

[@Num1MarioFan]

I have one which is pretty neat, so the beta Pig trot song is actually kinda used in the actual game, but only one segment of the song that loops forever, you can hear it if you go to the Red Cafe. I found this one myself as I recognised it while listening to the actual song.

[@lookus8799]

Never have I ever been moved as much by a piece of digital media as when I saw the sequence at 3:37

[@isaaczhang2762]

4:06 Yeah. This is an essential glitch for me to get onto the main island early (I don’t know any others). It can even make you clip on top of buildings sometimes! I sometimes clip out of bounds and fall into an abyss.

[@isaaczhang2762]

Actually, I know a few others, the no shark and Pizza Van (Hanker) exploits, but I can’t pull of either off them.

[@user-zb5gg4zn5j]

Fun fact: some of the cars are based on real life cars. Like the Valkyrie is based on the Ferrari testarossa, the Falchion GT is based on the ford mustang or the Chevrolet Camaro, the Gersemi is based on the Chevy corvette and more. My favorite is the Lantos that is based on the famous Ford gt (paint scheme looks like the Le Mans 1966 style). Another fun fact: in Cherry Tree Hills there are some places like a house that you can see the black void when you stand next to it and open the picture mode. Another fun fact is that some cars (like the garbage truck) when you brake and gas at the same time you will trigger a drift mode, like a handbrake. Another fun fact is that the men that are trancing behind the police station are invincible, you can’t run over them (like Rex fury) and they are just stuck doing their animation. If my language is sometimes messed up I’m sorry because I’m from Poland. Hope you read it!

[@INYSpiirit]

2:51 You haven’t mentioned it but Paradise Sands is surely a reference to California, precisely Santa Monica Beach if you look at the Ferris Wheel it looks the same as it is in Santa Monica

[@il_Bepp0]

I discovered like one year ago that with certain vehicle (like the hanker) you could kinda "drift" by pressing the accelerator and then the brake at the same time. I discovered it by accident when i was trying to do a burnout like in GTA or in any other game where this mechanic works and i wanted to see if in LCU worked in some way too. It's a bit sloppy but kinda fun to do.

[@Num1MarioFan]

6:47 and also when he turns back to a regular npc without an animated face his torso returns to the old design why they didn’t update the stiff face npcs is beyond me, but some npcs have their textures mapped incorrectly and so they’ll look weird.

[@Fletchey2209]

I have one which no one has mentioned before. So if you recall at the start of the game as Chase is pulling into Auburn Docks Bluff beard is steering the ship in at a turn causing havoc, and you can see he destroys a Ship the looks exactly like the ferry. Later on when Chase needs to get to Albatroz Prison and needs the Ferry to get there Bluff Beard says he sunk it. So they both must have something in common! Love the videos! ❤️

[@plaguebirb479]

7:43 Such a Beautiful Sound

[@comenting3207]

When you unlock the train you can take it to either side of the track, once you reached the gate/ bridge switch directions and hold the speed up button, the velocity decrease of the wall wont be enough to stop so you cross the gate or fly through the bridge on an invisible track and access the big island

[@jackminer2148]

2:23 GTA V Train: “Finally, a worthy opponent. Our battle will be legendary.”

[@BenChurchill76]

I have played LEGO City Undercover multiple times now (It's by far my favorite LEGO game), and I did not know there were super bricks above the tunnel going from Fresco to Paradise Sands! Thanks for that "tip" at the end, LOL!

[@TheRWK]

NP! That’s a fun part of LCU, you can find hidden super bricks everywhere even after you 100% it

[@piotrm5635]

4:30 maybe becouse of benny 🤣

[@JacobSYork]

In Bluebell Mine intro cutscene, a miner can be seen with brown eyebrows and a beard. This is actually the Stinky Fletcher character(which CAN be unlocked), and Stinky is the person whom Chase is trying to find.

[@carloscorreia4155]

It was so funny when he said he was gonna put a bunch of MOV Police Truck on the Train Tracks to test if the Train is destructable at 2:32 🤣😅.

[@Chrisiraia]

I like how you sneakily put freddy from fanf while his song is playing.

[@-notAndre-]

Fr brudda

[@Esychyoff]

7:43 you forgot about civilian using a banana and robber using a crowbar

[@LucasPrice-uv1vi]

3:36 Has Me Rolling On The Floor🤣

[@PhysicsareGreat]

Since it is night while you play the museum mission, we kind of having a day-night cycle. It's something.

[@bananapudingtheclownhorsie]

I just found out that if you place a marker on the map and get in a taxi with a civilian driver the taxi takes you to your destination and it drops you off. Try it out.

[@bananapudingtheclownhorsie]

It also works for limmos but not for busses

[@romancatholicgameing]

5:28 it's def the fnaf song no city designer listens to 1875 opera music

[@Jajen1945]

idk if this counts as a "hidden detail/feature", but if you back up a tow truck Infront of another vehicle, it will automatically attach the tow hitch to the other vehicle and you can tow it around

[@LocalTorchwoodIntern]

I think it would be neat to do Dimensions next? (or at least the dimensions world) to see the differences between them! I never played Undercover but these two videos have been really interesting lol

[@thefancydoge8668]

Hopefully, one day, we will get a Lego City 2 or a game like it.

[@MMLStudios987]

Another Cutscene Bug I'd look into is the Unusually Dark Windows in Various Vehicles & Objects! Ex: The Moe DeLuca Scene With the Police Van when the Camera Focuses on Chase as after he Drives off!

[@Num1MarioFan]

One detail I noticed is there are rats on the grassy area near the basketball court in cherry tree hills, and oddly enough they can break brick structures, I know this because the tree broke and I saw the rats and immediately knew they broke it.

[@Samsung_Samuel]

8:49 "F*cky Butler"?

[@TheRWK]

Bucky butler

[@Samsung_Samuel]

@TheRWK I know that's what his name is, but if you listen carefully, it does sound like you said "F*cky Butler"

[@thesuperlegendsandcartoons]

Hahaha 🤣🤣🤣 8:49

[@Iristallite]

i've got two little things to share flowers have a unique destruction animation in the blackwell mansion level, but disappear instantly in the city there's an indestructible vending machine near the bluebell police station

[@keenanbusby3275]

thats cool

[@dantetouchdown9030]

You can actually swing from side to side on zip lines if you rotate the stick away from the line, you can even do a full 360!

[@faunaflower]

I can't get over "fnaf music" being in LCU.

[@matteosposetti5033]

3:00 more than Little Italy in NY Fresco seems to be based on Venice in Italy, the canals are similar and the leaning fusilli tower is based on the leaning tower of Pisa. At least from my point of view.

[@octolinggamer]

in the karate mission ( not sure if its wii u only) chases's uniform changes between whether you view the cutscene on replay mode in police station, and when you view the same cutscene in the actual level

[@TheRWK]

Woah I didn’t know that!

[@octolinggamer]

@@TheRWK it's really easy to miss

[@octolinggamer]

He mostly changes between cop outift and his civilian outifit

[@Chrisiraia]

I'm going to that red car and hear that fanf sound the next time I play lego city undercover.

[@alpha1eastaskforce227]

Fun Fact for 5:42: It isn't just a song from FNAF, and it is an actual song called Toreador March, or fully known as Votre toast, je peux vous le rendre (translated: Your Toast, I Can Return It To You) and was composed by Georges Bizet in 1875, and the particularly jingle is from the "1905 Regina Musical Box: Classical Overture" sample Music Box Collection album by Hot Ideas Inc.

[@stanlet144]

5:25 I remember finding out about this a year or two ago when I replayed the game and I was absolutely shocked.

[@Gab157_Italy]

I love that people still makes videos about this masterpiece

[@bilakobama818]

goat lego city content creator

[@dylan8435]

9:14 Silver Quill will be so proud

[@gb9727]

I've heard the pig music in a few non-LCU videos actually.

[@-notAndre-]

Yeah it’s in street chicken… It’s a noble game where you have to cross the street as a chicken

[@alfiegbfan]

The hangar door having no collision is because there was a mission there where you would apprehend criminals, don't know why you can still go in there though 🤷‍♂️

[@vinnyvidz]

I just had to turn on my PlayStation going to Lego city undercover and go halfway around the map just to listen to this two second long sound effect that repeats two times 5:28

[@GDpro_fan75]

2:37 😂😂😂😂

[@zerodrop6043]

I saw the Lego city 4d at legoland and the officer went through so much to catch one guy There was also special effects like fans and bubbles that were set off by staff

[@kundagangz]

4:42 Maybe Lego Movie game?

[@barbaradurlik9206]

When You Are Driving The Bearer Vehicle On 1 Heart, You Can Still Boost But No Fire Comes Out The Back.

[@Bluueee03]

Pretty sure if you walk up to one of the blocked off bridges as a civilian, it'll give you a different voice line than what your police disguise would give you. Haven't tried this in a while though.

[@heydar_hd]

You have sooo many Facts that I know and don‘t know I love you‘re Channel! I also Love LCU and it‘s a shame no one will make a sequel 😢

[@Lego_Deadpool2023]

I must admit… it’s literally not every day that you see a astronaut sitting at a bench let alone reading a newspaper who even does that anymore

[@dat1zombie146]

I love that you did more humor in this one great job

[@Prawdziweschabowe]

Odd detail, many different walking animations. Why is this game so good?

[@victory_317]

fr, and we never got a sequel....

[@vachegevorgyan1855]

Another detail` when you're in Special Assignment 13 dispuste behavior there's a cutscenes when Blackwell and proffesor Kowalski meet them. You'll notice the videochat screen shows mansion is red in remastered version, But in Wii u version the mansion is original color. This is files from Lego Batman 2

[@Merikq]

If you go by car "Pizza Van" (6:55) straight into the water, then you can fly very far

[@rabbidinho5757]

5:33 ptsd activated

[@indominusrex1652]

2:32 that is amazing you done something i don't know how to instant vehicles on pc

[@ErwinEhrenmann]

Usually when u activate the cheat from the in-game menu, it tells u the button u need to press at the bottom of the screen

[@giuliomariniello2006]

A (unused thing in lego city) HAS FALLEN INTO THE FILES!

[@Snichardi]

thanks for making these videos!! love it

[@tsundasphere]

I've been craving videos like this, defo thanks for making this :D

[@ryanhartley211]

3:09 I might be wrong here, but I feel like the design of Blackwell Tower is based on the Burj Khalifa in Dubai. I mean, Blackwell Tower is the tallest building in Lego City it seems

[@baileywalker2478]

2:35 I love that you put the MythButers theme in there and how you do excited 😂

[@anthonyzabinski4602]

5:25 this game came out 1 year before five nights at Freddy's

[@Jo-mx1ir]

Finally a new Video! Love your content!

[@DCortezProductions]

Love you channel! Would love to see you do a let's play series

[@nikolajjrgensennielsen2112]

You need more subs man, keep up the good work

[@NonsensicalSpudz]

maybe the hanger was intended to be used for plane vehicles, but they added the door and didn't make it solid once scrapped?

[@lemonadesnake]

8:46 assuming that you were allowed to jump over at one point, but the game would just teleport you back

[@shadouraito7935]

These videos made me love the game even more!

[@gb9727]

If you go to the top of the auburn bridge, then open the camera , and zoom in far enough, you can see another city in the distance

[@ErwinEhrenmann]

I think it's supposed to be Brick County, which is the place were Chase was sent to at the end of the 3DS game

[@gb9727]

In fresco, there is a rail viaduct. I am not sure what it's for, or what the railway led to or was. It's an interesting detail that doesn't have any purpose, but it's interesting none the less

[@ErwinEhrenmann]

I stumbled across it a few days ago as well. I first thought it was supposed to be part of the route between the Heritage bridge and the Blackwell bridge, but the Fresco station seems to be underground, so that's not the case.

[@maiomango]

Will there be a part 3? Your content is great!

[@patrxgt9691]

Instead of "Oddities and Details" episode, you could document all of the changes between original Wii U release and PC remaster. It could be interesting to see what exactly was changed, since remaster never got any real changelog or something like that.

[@MitchPayne-yk3kx]

The hanger has no collisions because of the cut seen after one of the missions where you deliver something to Rex but I can’t remember what

[@ErwinEhrenmann]

It was the T-Rex from the museum

[@flame5226]

I love this video! Lego City Undercover is defently one of the best video games i have ever played

[@LegoCity-Studios]

1:48 It's because there's a challenge where there's the gang's arrested and the doors open

[@ErwinEhrenmann]

After the museum mission you also go in there with the T-Rex

[@sirRunt]

This is a cool detail, that if you try to honk with ice cream or pizza cars, music will play

[@WalkerEshelman-fr5ql]

Such a weird channel you have, you've got a sense of humor and consistently good videos keep it up

[@Railsww]

The smallismo fits in between train tracks

[@cheatseychespin2792]

Jease, even I didn't know the loading screen or the magnifying glass one.

[@LegoLoco7]

I saw this in my recommended, and now I've watched all your LEGO City Undercover videos; I'm in a complete LEGO City Undercover mood now. My interest in this game started years ago when I was really young, when I used the LEGO website a lot and got the LEGO Club magazines. I think most of it was from LEGO's website, but I watched gameplay videos on KZbin as well because I knew I wasn't getting a Wii U anytime soon, though my cousin was more lucky (cough cough). I was so surprised when I heard it was going to be rereleased on modern platforms, but I'd only just received an Xbox 360 at that point. My first taste of playing it was the fun pack for LEGO Dimensions (since it was available for Xbox 360), and I played the heck out of that when I had the chance. Eventually, I got an Xbox One, and you *bet* LEGO City Undercover was one of the first games I bought for that console. It felt so good to finally play through it with my brother, and despite the amount of replay value the game has, I unfortunately haven't played it much more since then, especially after I got my own PC and started using that almost all the time, and now my brother is always on our Series X, and my sister is on the Xbox One _most_ of the time. My brother has said he'd be interested in playing through the story again, but I kinda want to play it by myself on my PC now that I actually have a graphics card and enough storage. It'll also be really fun to mod, since I have some knowledge from other LEGO games.

[@vachegevorgyan1855]

Near super color gun red brick location and near stucked kitty there's toy shop and under the rocket there's lego minifigure on the Wii u,PC,PS4 and Xbox one. Only in Nintendo Switch version theres wooden doll. This is a detail from me.

[@ppooooll]

2:26 It is possible to destroy the train.

[@victorvance2573]

How?

[@Ghd242]

Ds version of undercover is my childhood

[@Num1MarioFan]

A personal favourite reference of mine that may come as very subtle, the doctor whatsit disguise is meant to be the Doctor from Doctor Who, I think the people behind Tt games love doctor who.

[@TheRWK]

Absolutely. I have heard devs say they wanted to make a LEGO doctor who game, and they got pretty close with LEGO Dimensions

[@SyncoLD]

when you're on the ladders on the firetruck or hazzard if you eject it breaks the car

[@pozzaapp]

another great video

[@shigerumiyamoto9612]

Is it possible to upload all voice clips somewhere. I myself have tried to find lots of them as they can be very charming and clever and would like to hear them all without having to sit and wait for dozens of minuits haha

[@PotatoPieBros]

YES! more vids from the lego city undercover guy

[@Someone09346]

1 thing that i wanna say is that i played this alot as a kid and something broke and i lost my 6 year progres

[@JacobYa-km5pe]

I like your videos a lot

[@TheRWK]

Thanks!

[@chaosqueen9521]

the garage doors on the police station glitch when you colour them possibly meaning the old ones are in the same place

[@joachimhovgaardramlau3064]

I'm still waiting for top ten bushes in lego city undercover

[@JustAPersonWhoComments]

I tried shooting my color gun at my TV, and now my mom thinks I'm a modern art enthusiast

[@CoffeeSubset]

this channel is popping off with a video game released 5 yrs ago. insane lol. i always wanted to play lcu when i saw it. Almost 6 yrs now but no luck..

[@burner555]

Actually the original game is over 10 years old, he started the series because of the anniversary

[@-notAndre-]

You’re missing out

[@Simonstudios587]

Well while I was driving the dragger and towing a police truck when I sounded the draggers horn I was able to make the police trucks siren light up

[@piotrm5635]

3:14 becouse they are in actual lego city police station sets
