The Unused Content in LEGO City Undercover

[@lcumodding9503]

Love the video! Glad to see how thorough you were with your research

I like your icon, but I can't find the boxart video.

I have to tell you something, LCU Modding. I've searched all over KZbin and cannot find the video of you exploring the boxart level. Why is that?

This game made my childhood me and my mom used to play split screen and finish most of the run. But I finished it and seeing others still play it I was shocked seeing it had no updates since the story ended and I didn't know that theese existed in the files!

Yeah I really wish we could play those hopefully someone could find early concepts for them like their idea rather than voice lines and a map icon I’d love to see the idea they had for some of those like paramedic panic that only have a map icon to see what could’ve been and maybe what could be modded in

[@gesp2742]

Ngl, this remenbers me the gta side missions. Like paramedic, taxi, Vigilante and the pizza boy mission in gta vice city

[@Smol_Fofa]

Wow, I’m in awe of how much more ambitious the game was gonna be! It’s sad they didn’t get any further updates to flesh out the game, you could really feel the unrealized potential. I’m glad we still get to see this cool stuff though, great video!

[@thatanimeweirdo]

17:00 I believe the names in the cutscene were removed because the scene would've had to be a lot longer for the names to be read properly. This would change the pacing of the cutscene a lot and it was probably cut because it would throw off the scene entirely.

[@TheRWK]

That is a great point!

[@TheRWK]

Small correction: The harbor cops do appear as pedestrians, but they have unused icons which lead me to believe that they are unused PLAYABLE characters.

[@coldrblx]

I grew up with this game, my god. I'm honestly happy this game isn't forgotten like I thought, such a good game. Crazy to think things are being found a decade later.

[@Gab157_Italy]

Yeah, thats true

[@totallyreyalfactsfsfs]

Fun Fact: you can (kind of?) see parts of rooms in levels that you normally cant see because the camera can't turn around using the radar scanner thing

[@Irreve-rsible]

I am glad I wasn't the only one who thought of Isle Delfino when hearing the name of Isle Delphino. Thank you for compiling all this information! I appreciate it. I remember playing through this game years ago and loving it alot. I wish DLC would've been made, sad unfortunately.

[@Bloxed]

Seeing that unused versions of the Chase Begins figures exist honestly make me think that in the beta, they would have been boss fights similar to prior lego games, hence why the final game only really has Jimmy Grossman and the Final Boss as boss fights.

[@lettuce984]

Is It just me or would everyone be happy to pay to have all the cut content put back in the game as 10th anniversary dlc? (It’ll probably will never happen but we can dream 😂)

[@SharkyBlue]

I love the video! Cool to see some stuff that you wouldn't usualy see in the game. Good to know that there's atleast one person still making vids on this game. Great job keep it up!

[@Quantainious]

I really love this game and grew up with it, and this is just amazing. Honestly the game and your youtube channel are underrated

[@ButerMaslo]

I really liked the video. You are probably the only one on youtube. who spoke in more detail about the history of development and unused content in Lego city undercover.

[@trainlover123trainsrock]

I’ve owned the Wii U version for years now, and I never even knew that Lego City Undercover had unused and cut content, if at all!

[@Jadushnew]

I love that you give this game the attention it needs. For me it is the best lego game ever and full of grandiose ideas! I hope from the bottom of my heart that we get a sequel!

[@faunaflower]

One reason the frantic fares mission was scraped was because it gave out studs based on the unused UI. With stud multipliers giving you pretty much unlimited studs, they could have thought it was pointless.

[@ThymeHere]

I played this game alot when i was younger with my dad and its really cool to see cut content from the game. Also you Are actually really good at edeting and Talking and this video was really entertaining, great work

[@aussieknuckles]

Always these smaller unknown channel's crankin out the Unique Gems, solid video dude. Makes me wanna go back and play this game again! I had this game on the Wii U.

[@Mskart109]

19:50 Okay, this is golden dialog!

[@jajproductionsfruitcakefil8489]

This was great! I'm really happy there's more to hear from Frank, but I think one of my favourite bits is the unintentional double entendre when you jump onto the Bog and Chase says: 'Sorry, police business!'.

[@INYSpiirit]

Nice video ! With your videos you made me want to replay the game ! I had never thought launching my Wii U recently after seeing your video of the story of the game, thx !

[@NoobRager]

This is honestly really cool, looking at how remaster is essentially a combined version of 3ds and WiiU assets I myself have found a few things you mentioned in this video in the WiiU files but have never implemented them into the game But now I'm curious to see what I can do. Anyways awesome video and thank you for the A+ LCU content

[@NoobRager]

Also a few interesting things, the Traghetti is the same model as the canoe that can be found in Lego lord of the rings during the hunt for frodo section of the game, but it is laying sideways. Also the possible mission of Chase returning flowers to the secretary is interesting as it may explain why she has a somewhat crabby attitude to chase during the final version of the game. Also the Harry Potter texture of Harry and Hermione being wanted is actually visible in Lego Harry Potter: Years 1-4 in the Gryffindor common room if I'm not mistaken on a chalkboard off to the right, although the texture is slightly changed. Also the aisle delfino part of the map is interesting and I might check that out on the WiiU version eventually

[@agentomecha634]

I never would’ve thought this game had so much sit content as well as sharing a few assets from LEGO Batman 2. I used to play this game a lot. It’s one of my favorite LEGO games of all time. It makes me with it did get DLC or a sequel. Great job on this video, it was a fun watch.

[@Sevrgpro]

I still love how I can find out so much more about this game so long after it’s release. Awesome video dude!

[@YoloMenace001]

For the thing honey says, im thinking that it meant there couldve been a police radio. Dunby says about getting donuts from a coffee shop or smth and the Red Cafe across the road from the station would server donuts (as we see in LCUTCB) which would have to be before the 2nd cutscene of the game where we meet frank who drops several boxes of donuts. Either that or we were meant to meet Dunby and Frank with Mayor Gleeson after we get off of the container ship.

[@GNBAustrian]

Bro… This brings back sooo many memories, I thank you for making this video!

[@vachegevorgyan1855]

5:52 Note. Rubadub is unused boat, but one day i found on Wii U, so it's a leftover from the Wii U,or forgotten to adding to (boat) traffic list.

[@gb9727]

Here's a list of all the unused vehicles in the game: Civic_Warden (School bus) Farm_Devourer (Combine harvester) Industrial_Crawler (Crane; Used in SA12) SUV_Marozi (SUV; similar to Douser) SUV_Bastion (Bastion without police markings) Salooncars_Alom (Car) Salooncars_Galatea (Car) Novelty_Bog (Toilet cart) Novelty_Bottlerocket (Rollercoaster carriages) Trains_Toiler (4 Wide train; based on the train in 8404; Also has octan version [Trains_Toileroctan] I'm guessing these were to be used on the tracks in the docks) Trains_Fuelcarriage Naval_Castaway Naval_Rubadub Naval_Hauler Naval_Garbagescow Naval_Traghetti Police_Minnow Aircraft_elifant

9:51 awww, I aldehyde knew chief Dunby had a soft spot! 😊 this game is amazing and they should re ad this cut content again if they make a sequel

[@Tiishen]

Man, this game brings back so many memories. I never had it on the 3DS but I watched a full playthrough on YT around release, then once the remaster came out I 100%ed it on both PS4 and PC Shame we never got the Taxi missions, or races against NPCs... That would've been awesome

[@gb9727]

There is one music track that played a lot on the chase begins, but it only plays once in undercover, when you pick up forrest blackwell

[@Agent_Pol]

A Detail or glitch of some sort is that in the harbor/docks behind the police station is that the same exact unused police boat can be seen for a brief second, I discovered this today

[@Tizyfox_05]

I remember “the chase begins” as my very first game on the 3ds when I was little. Once I discovered that there was a “new” version on the switch I bought it and it was just love. I absolutely adore this game, especially the humor of it. It’s just great. I finished it to 100% a couple of months ago and it was so satisfying. I game I always liked finally completing it. I just love it.

[@clutchpowers_]

THANK YOU SO SO SO SO MUCH FOR UNEARTHING AND SHOWING THESE OFF this was such an amazing watch!! By the way I hope you don’t mind me asking but for the TCB content that’s leftover, were the uncompressed cutscenes in the files by chance or is it just the LCU cutscenes that are in the files?

[@TheRWK]

Thank you and that is a great question! That’s a point that I would’ve liked to elaborate more on in the video. Unfortunately the uncompressed 3ds cutscenes aren’t in the files but the objects, all of the subtitles, and of course the characters, for those cutscenes are leftover. As far as I know, It isn’t possible to mod the cutscenes into the PC version because the voice files and animations are missing. Love the clutch powers icon by the way, I have a lot of nostalgia for that movie!

[@Epic-ll-man]

I finished this game to 100% and enjoyed every second of it ❤

The Batman 2 part reminded me how much I want a fan-game that merges loads of Lego games, maybe with City as a hub. Even if it's just vehicles and characters.
