This shows why NFS was so popular back then, gamers didn't even knew these stories yet they were there, the heart that the developers had put in this is so evident.
I had no idea the story went this deep, both for the mighty M3 GTR *OR* the player. Assuming an age of 18 years old at the beginning of the video (the prologue of Carbon), then this puts our player at roughly 38-40 years old. That's a long and legendary career for any racer, questionably legal or not.
So True. Thank you very much for your support and kindness. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html
I mean, if Kimi Raikkonen stopped racing until he was 41 and Michael Schumacher til' 46, it's not that odd tbh. Heck, even Alonso's still driving at 40-41.
Damn the player went through so much in these games you'd think he'd retire and park his car by a beach but taking a photo with a community is a nice conclusion to the story
This was perfect,the chronological way u went thru all of the games and followed the BMW towards the end was awesome. Funnily the player made an appearance in need for speed:payback. In the last race of the game if memory serves. One of the racers was Ryan Cooper
Actually ryan cooper isn't the player of most wanted and carbon because player finished his career in palmont which his home town.plus player can't be the undercover protagonist in TRI city because you that the player is the most wanted racer in Rockport and he would be arrested for more years because the crimes he committed in rockport.and I think player had either retired from racing because in 2005 and 2006 in the beta busted from mw you will see that he is in his mid 20 -25 yrs.so cooper isn't player
There is still one story that needs to be told before "Ryan Cooper" retires for good... You really expect a man to let somebody just steal a car from him not once, but twice? Then come close to getting it back from a smuggling ring, just to lose track of it again? Ryan needs his Beamer, man. They been through a lot.
Ah I see you're a man of culture as well. I would love to hear your thoughts on this. Thank you very much for your support and kindness. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html
the real revival of NFS will be him taking back the BMW, and not this cringe woke trash they do with heat and this new unbound bs. and they pretty much insult the whole Player story by letting heat protagonist take ownarship of the BMW. and that bich sayng lets show how this car shuld be driven or some bs like that. EA are real trash.
This makes so much sense in so many ways, not going to lie I almost shed a tear for the player knowing where his racing finally ended and seeing the photo showing his last time racing for the series, the player was with us for 12 long years and beat pretty much the entire world he’s in, hailed as the greatest racer of all time. Wish they would make a need for speed game of the players kid or something showing the players child working his/her way up to finally meet his/her father and race him one on one and you play as the players child of course to ultimately finally get that face reveal of the player himself even though the player is ultimately just you, you are the player, so I guess it kinda wouldn’t work for a face reveal, but we could see the events take place through his point of view after the race ends where the players child reveals him/herself as his child. That is a need for speed game I would love to play in today’s time.
That would be freaking insane! Well thought. Thank you very much for your support and kindness. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html
Makes no sense. It's like some wet fanfic theory. It's fitting only, if you forget any logic and common sense. The main protagonist of MW and Carbon( maybe UG1 and 2, because is just hinted a little bit)is not Ryan. His story is in Pro Street, Shift one and two. He is arrested in Undercover. What happened after that with him it's not very clear. The main protagonist in Undercover is a different character, undercover cop, a real cop, not just someone hired. Also the main protagonist of Hot persuit and Rivals is different again. Ryan story is only in Pro Street, Shift 1 and 2. The story of the protagonist with BMW is Carbon and MW, also is hinted by Rog, that very possible he is in UG 1 and 2, but one is obviously, his story end for good in Carbon. If you think logically, his story starts in Playmont with his exile and ends in Playmont, when he beating the man responsible for his exile, clear his reputation and name and win back his gf. I don't know why so many fans think, that in all games is one and only one character. It is not. And if you think logicall and without the main goal to put Ryan everywhere, you will see, that is not logical, he to be everywhere and all the time. Using this mindset, if i want, i can prove, that the main protagonist is Razor and to make one big plot twist 😂😂😂 and to make up everything to fits my theory. The answer is more simple, just different character.
Seriously speaking, growing up through this series, i never went too deep into its storyline, thinking that every NFS release is just another good racing game with a story... But the way you connected all these games and their stories in a chronological way, i really just want to restart the whole series again from scratch and actually go deep into the storyline... A very well detailed and informative video! This video just increased my interest in the whole series by a thousand times, especially the whole storyline of the series revolving around that one car and that one _player_ . BTW i subscribed!
Yea. That sequence of game story is why I loved this car series tbh. I thought it was common knowledge and am shocked. Why do I only know useless stuff?
So True. Thank you very much for your support and kindness. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html
Great explanation and connection of the stories but I have a couple of things to say Darius didn't pay off Cross, that's why Cross wants Nikki to make sure he got paid and says "Just a bounty hunter, and I always get paid. Just make sure I do." Nikki pays the player's bounty (which should have been around 15 million, not 150k but it's irrelevant at this point) and saves him I also don't think the protagonist in Undercover is the main character (or Ryan Cooper) as the police radio suggests he is caught while the protagonist is listening to it (unless it's an older recording)
True. I mentioned that Ryan Cooper in undercover is different. Thank you very much for your support and kindness. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html
After all these years, I have to say this is the best storyline explained from anyone I've ever seen. Thank you for making this video, and great job on the explanation
Wow, thank you! Thank you very much for your support and kindness. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html
Loved how you connected all these games throughout time. Especially with Underground 2 into Most Wanted. And that tribute at the end was nostalgic adrenaline tbh. Haven't played in awhile but NFS made racing my genre still to this day. 🤘🏼
IF electronic arts thought of all this (apart from the obvious most wanted and carbon) the way you described it and created a nfs based on all this lore, there would be a need for speed revival. But so many people just want racing games for the sake of driving (which i understand) and that manifests itself in "lightweight stories to please everyone".. knowing this and EA's ways... I really hope that what lovely heaven you showed us here is true
@@xDuviDx yeah man, not every racing games has to be always about racing too, if racing games can't have stories, then CoD should've become a mindless shooter too, no objective, you just kill soldiers from point A to B, in fact every games has it's own loop, and has it's own grinding and rewards like NFS too, it's mostly the story that become the backbone of the game itself.
It's actually always been my headcanon that the games were connected by the same player being you. It's pretty mindblowing to see it all laid out, there's connections here I really was not expecting. Personally, I took it even further with another EA game: the F1 series. They added a "My Team" mode in 2021 where you make your own character that has somehow gotten the funding to start their own F1 team for themselves to compete. They are known as the "Owner Driver" which is a classification we haven't seen in real F1 in decades. In my headcanon, Player realizes that he's almost reached the top of motorsport after beating the Speed Icons. So he leaves it all behind, sells his entire fleet, and decides to go legit one more time. He enters the pinnacle of motorsport with his own F1 team and eventually becomes the World Driver Champion, further cementing his status as the greatest racer of all time.
I see you're a man of culture as well. Thank you very much for your support and kindness. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html
Something I always found funny is that without a doubt, the protagonists of NFS Most Wanted and NFS Carbon are supposed to be the same person, how ever the character models have completely different faces and head shape when you remove the blur effect in the busted cut scenes. I guess it'd make sense not to have it consistent considering the only time you're supposed to see his face is when it's blurred. Still something to think about though.
Yeah, they made carbon in a rush. probably the same actor didnt show up! Thank you very much for your support and kindness. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html
Goddamn I played almost every NFS game and didn't realize everything was so connected. From an underground street racer, to professional circuit racer and an undercover cop.
Yeah my mission is to make this video reach out to all nfs fans like you in the world. Thank you very much for your support and kindness. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html
Fantastic video!! One thing that's interesting, in NFS 2015, I remember with the update that was added "Eddie's challenge", Eddie's and Melissa's dialouge to the player was almost as they didn't know the protagonist. And since they were ones who originally faced the player, they would be the main ones who know him. Now if we're not including the update then 2015s storyline makes sense. But the add-on kind of adds a hole as it seems to throw us in a loop believing Travis was 'Player' the entire time as he was the one who knew of Eddie in the past.
Yes even the devs lost it at that point 😂🤣 Thank you very much for your support and kindness. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html
Yes, during the Eddie’s Challenge campaign, there is dialogue from Travis where he talks about racing Eddie back in the day and mentions Melissa. Travis is also the outlaw which makes sense given his behavior running from police and causing havoc is Most Wanted and Carbon.
After watchimg this, I still wants to call "the player" as Ryan Cooper because we are "The Player" and we have one identity, Ryan Cooper. Man, Ryan Cooper was a cool name in fact for the original NFS series. Wonder how do they got that name?
Yes indeed. Thank you very much for your support and kindness. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html
Now you see, this is what i was thinking the story would be like because i want to make a need for speed movie or movies because i love how the most wanted racer story is, maybe when i finish school ill make the movies. Also thanks for putting everything together love the vid man👍
I feel like you did a perfect job on this, I have the exact same idea from what you got, I feel like they should do one last game with player/Ryan Cooper and make it like where you have to beat all the old bosses like Razor and Darius
@@AiMoun right now I am play the classic games like NFS most wanted, and NFS Carbon because I recently got a ps2 to play those games. This is my first time playing most wanted but when I was younger I played NFS Carbon with my dad
This video blew my mind! It is awesome! I would have never imagined how perfect the story is connected and now many things I spotted throughout the years finally have sense. And now I understand why the Racer and the Cop from NFS Hot Pursuit are identical.
Damn that was the 1st time I sat down and watched Is a 25 minute video without skipping in a while, I felt kinda sad that the player knew that his racing career was over
It's because of fans like you I'm still going. Thank you very much for your support and kindness. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html
after this i know how need for speed is the greatest racing game that ever made especially the legendary trio : underground, Most wanted, carbon they have an amazing & unique conected storyline, plots, and cool evils like razor & darius Just thanks for this you revived my childhood memories
Wb the classic NFS games, the HP trilogy, prostreet and shift? Those are great too. Also Undergrounf has nothing to do with Most Wanted and Carbon other than being in the same universe
I knew beforehand that Need for Speed Underground 1 and 2 were connected stories, but hearing this fan thorny that the “player” has been on this long journey, from starting low in Underground 1 all the way to Most Wanted 2012, that’s one heck of a legacy. I remember my first Need For Speed game was Need for Speed Underground. I’ll always have such fun memories of trying to beat that game, and I still haven’t to this day haha. I gotta get back to playing that game and beat the levels, same with Underground 2 and Most Wanted. I’ve never played any other Need for Speed Games that much besides those 3. This is a great video explaining this timeline of how the player has been going through so many cities and racers, just to come out on the top
Now the player is in 35ish with a family wagon, eating potato chips, and watching his nostalgic memories in youtube. A video titled "SECRET Need For Speed Storyline You Didn’t Know" catches his eye, realizing its been 22 yrs approx from his time of racing, 17yrs since FnF tokyo drift, thinks fast and furious Tokyo drift continuity in F9 was shitty, decides at least his life is better than Sean (lucas black). Thinks of commenting in the Alias EIGENGREY. 🤣🤣🤣
This right here is the greatest comment of all time. Thank you very much for your support and kindness. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html
@@AiMoun Yo, This Was Epic!...NFS Most Wanted was my Fave of the entire series! What about the Need For Speed Movie?!?!? How would you think that ties in?.. And the New Game NFS Unbound coming out soon?. Keep up the Great work!
The fans are asking for a video about Need For Speed Most Wanted 2 that it’s gonna come out. Btw what is your favourite Need For Speed Game? Mine is Most Wanted. The first I ever played
This is such a well done video you did on the NFS story in chronological order, hats off to you, AND props to you on this one, I’ve always thought that the Player was a completely different person after Carbon, but now, thanks to you, I now know the Player’s story in chronological order up until 2015, you’ve done what no OTHER NFS TH-camr has even come close to doing, at all. I’ve also never known that there was a real story after ProStreet and Undercover, but now I know. The NFS series has such a connected timeline, that it’s not even funny, seriously. This video is worth rewatching to fully understand it, THAT’S how good it is!! The NFS community always has something up it’s sleeve, even if we still don’t have anything new yet, as of now.
@@AiMoun You’re always very welcome, no problem, anytime!! 😇👊🏻😎 I’ll also check out the NFS Heat, Payback, and The Run video, while I’m at at!! Thank you SOOOOO much for the suggestion, too, I really appreciate it, now I have another NFS related video to dive into, thanks to you. I already know that this will be yet another exciting video, too, haha, we all love our own fair share of NFS, after all, never gets boring, whatsoever. 🤩👊🏻😄
@@AiMoun I’m currently playing NFS Most Wanted ‘05, and I’m currently on Blacklist Rival #2 - Bull. This is the 2nd time I’m going to beat the game, BTW, such a fun NFS title to play, overall. 😎🦾🤩
I'm a very huge fan of the need for speed series. In all honesty I wondered if they were connected but that's all their was. Now what you have done here sir really makes me a proud nfs fan and want to play all these series again one after the other. This was an outstanding story.
I'm currently working on full length need for speed storyline movie
2 ปีที่แล้ว +6
The first videogame my mom ever bought for me was NFS undercover and since then I've played almost every NFS game and the end of Ryan taking a picture made me choke up
Oooh that would be great. Thank you very much for your support and kindness. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html
the memories flowing back, and to think it was not the Gameplay i was not nostalgic with but the story/lore is even better. Didnt think i was using the same person behind the wheels for all those years i was playing it tho, I even more appreciate the game now than ever. We need a better Conclusion of this story, even if its a Tame one, like being retired and one of the legendary professional racers to ever lived. That would be good.
I agree. Thank you very much for your support and kindness. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html

I really love the fact, that u have tried ur best to drop a reply to almost all of the 2k comments...🔥 Huge respect for that, though my comment is not related to the vid itself 😅
What a comprehensive compilation of the NFS franchise. Been a huge fan of nfs since the old days, your video summed it up really well. Thanks for making this. And, Keep doing what you do, your time will come soon.
This made my year. Thank you very much for your support and kindness. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html
Just wet fanfic. These is the most made up and wrong theory in gaming history. Ryan is not the maun protagonist in MW, Carbon and UG1-2. Neither he is the main protagonist in Undercover, Hot Pursuit and Rivals. He is only in Pro Street, Shift 1 and 2.
Thank You for making this, we all know that this is not official but it make sense in every part of the video. I subbed! Looking forward for more of these. Also, the Ending part made me cry, i remember the first time i played NFS Underground and i was 6 yrs old that time, and now I'm 22 yrs old. That Ending part was too good! Cheers man!
@@AiMoun I like 2005 NFS Most Wanted but not 2012 NFS most wanted you could easily get lost because everything in the city is so different but ain't similar to 2005 version
NFS lore is so big that it gets harder and harder to understand it. It gets more difficult to understand after 2015. That bmw is seen almost in every nfs game. In payback its abandoned, in heat it’s caught by police, in unbound it’s being delivered to razor. But also lets not forget about mobile version of nfs(no limits). There is an event called “urban legends” where we get this bmw and we can keep it if we win new blacklist at blackridge city. And also there is an event for Bugatti chiron (25 years anniversary) and through whole event we complete nfs legend games such as prostreet, underground, etc. But at the end of the event we fight mistery boss on nissan gtr. And guess who it is? It is player. As soon as we win him he tells us that “Olympic city… Bayview… Rockport… Palmont city… These are my cities. But Blackridge, I don’t need convincing. This one is yours. One day you’ll join me in infamy. I know it. Keep it up” but that’s not it. If you have that legendary bmw he says this “Oh.. and thanks for looking after the M3”
Yooo. Thank you very much for your support and kindness. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html Check my full nfs story Playlist
For people wondering Ryan Cooper and undercover player are different people, because there is a radio message from a cop talking about Ryan Cooper was arrested as we play the game I think he added that voice line to this video
Now i actually want to play the whole series in this exact order haha. I guess my "player " has spent the most time in NFS most wanted 2012. What an underrated game with the best online ever. Over 2000h!
Haha. So relatable. Thank you very much for your support and kindness. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html
@@AiMoun Mostly nfs games. You could for example make a series out of fan theories. I guess that not many people, including myself know them. That could be quite interesting!
3:45 We can't say he bought the m3 gtr for sure though, as there is no possible way you can buy a race car that isn't road legal and is only built for race tracks. And it is not possible to buy a stock m3 and put the parts together as most of the gtr's parts are not available to the public. There's two ways ryan cooper could've gotten it: Ryan must've been racing legally for some time or somehow snuck into a legal race and when he got behind the wheel of an m3 gtr he somehow bailed the race and left the track and then changed the livery of the m3 gtr to something of his own. OR he could've somehow found an abandoned m3 gtr and used the sponsorship money to repair it. There's no telling on how he got the paperwork (pinkslip) for the car as there is no way he could've obtained it legally.
Yep. Nothing is legal in nfs games anyway. Thank you very much for your support and kindness. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html
Just to add a bit. The M3 GTR in Need For Speed No Limits. The player (most likely) gave it to another player and asked the new guy to beat the blacklist in that game (Yes, Razor is in there) That's as far as I can remember
10:36 That’s actually a really good idea. A lot of theories i read about say that Ryan’s story ends here, where he gets arrested. This is a very interesting change. In the Hot Pursuit 2010 game, I believe that The Racer (i think he’s known as “Spectre” in No Limits?)’s story runs parallel to The Player (Cop)’s story. After the events of NFSHP2010, he gets beaten, with multiple different racers claiming the title until it reaches the “No Limits” Player. (Pursuit Legends Event, NFS No limits) As for Rivals, my interpretation of the story is that Zephyr and Fate’s stories are intertwined, where Zero Hour (Cop’s final Mission) takes place during Grand Tour (Racer’s final Mission), and Zephyr’s crash at the end of the race is caused by Fate. In other words, even though it seems almost as if the two careers are separate, as seen in the respective cutscenes, i believe that in a sort of “True Timeline”, Zephyr’s crash is indirectly caused By Fate, who had also ended up crashing. This connects the two careers nicely, which is why I believe that this would be a “True” Timeline. Though, the only issue is that this theory might fall apart due to the circumstances of No limits, since it’s kind of ambiguous where it takes place, or whether it impacts the story in any way. In the “Urban Legends” event, the “Player” leaves the M3 GTR with “No Limits Player”, which contradicts the M3 being in Heat. The only possible reason could likely be that the M3 is simply another replica. Assuming No limits isn’t canon, then i am willing to say that my theory was wrong.
Please watch my No limits Timeline. Your mind will be blown! Thank you very much for your support and kindness. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html
Now I completely understand the complete theory, or should i say, Series how the player gets to it in every Need For Speed Series. Very well explained dude. You had connected the conclusions behind it
This story goes deep, considering not all the titles got that much appreciation, atleast they had some correlation and had the players speculate the unknown parts of the franchise..
@@AiMoun I feel like it has to be NFS: MW, that was one of the only ones which I have old clear memories of which I played in the series. But I actually also have played other titles like undercover (on PS2), No Limits (I mean it was free so I tried it lol), ProStreet (played a small bit on some ps3, was used to a different type of gameplay nfs wise, so didn't enjoy it much, but it was still decent game). I probably have experienced other ones but don't either remeber or knew I was playing nfs lol. Like I have vague memories of playing something which I think was the very early versions of NFS. It's just that MW is what I really enjoyed and get hit by the nostalgia when I play it.
actually, you don't play as Ryan Cooper in Undercover, Ryan is brought up in one or two different occasions during the game though, one of them is when you have to steal a McLaren F1, and the other time is just from one of those random bits of police chatter when you wait around in free roam long enough. EDIT: ok, so you brought up the second thing that I mentioned, but also, given how Undercover works, whenever there's one of those Police radio dialogues, it spawns in some patrol cars, so that's why I think Ryan isn't the character you play as in Undercover, but instead just some random no name undercover cop. 2nd EDIT: also, technically, Ryan Cooper was there for the end of NFS Payback, as he's one of the racers during part 1 and 2 of the Outlaws Rush.
That's why fan theory are the best. There's no right or wrong way. Thank you very much for your support and kindness. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html
One addition to the story of NFS 2015. If you complete all the Outlaw missions (SPOILER ALERT the Outlaw is Trevor) after you meet him to congratulate you for succeeding in his cop chasing missions he says the exact line “Welcome back from the dead brother” assuming he knows who you are and what you have accomplished.
Wow I didn't know that. Thank you very much for your support and kindness. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html
I just noticed that "Players" face reminds me of Toby Marshal from the NFS movie But a problem that I have with this is that the timeline jumps all over the place, making it inconsistent. My head cannon is that there are multiple protagonists, and this is it: My version of players arc is the same in the beginning. Players arc goes from Underground, but he ends with the alias Ryan Cooper as his arc ends with Shift 2, with undercover happening before shift Player 2 is a cop, his story Is that he starts off as a cop in Seacrest County, then transferred to Redview county. To me Zephyr's story is Hot Pursuit, Most Wanted 2012, and Rivals. Zephyr started out as a low time street racer in Seacrest, eventually becoming most wanted there, then he moved to Fairhaven City to become most wanted, and also gaining the alias "Zephyr". He then moves to Redview to become the top racer there. But eventually getting arrested So to me the cop from Rivals and Zephyr have had beef since 2010. Onto Player 3's story, His arc is Rivals, 2015, and Heat. Starting out as a street racer from Rivals, it was his goal to be the best driver out there. But after Zephyrs race, he moved out of Redview, all the way down to Ventura Bay. He became the top racer there. After that it was his goal to be the best driver of the USA, so he started to gain rep in big cities all around the US, starting with Palm City. and so that's about it.
Good job. Fan theory is amazing. Thank you very much for your support and kindness. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html
personally, i always thought that the black box storyline was it own thing and ended with undercover, prostreet and shift are both track racing games, but they are different, shift taking place on actual tracks like gran turismo, and prostreet taking place on sanctioned tracks, onn actual streets, kinda like race wars from the fast and the furious
Yeah it's a mix of both worlds. Multiverse! Thank you very much for your support and kindness. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html
this is totally mindblowing that it is all connected and I think the player didn't retire and still drives around and still races people. Still, I think he just lays back, stays calm, and shows mercy to the competition instead of destroying them as he did with each boss driver throughout his journey! also what about NFS Carbon: Own The City ? what about that story? I think it's just underrated and great stories of NFS despite being a story for a handheld-console game! btw, congratulations, you earned yourself a new subscriber!!!
that was one hell of a story. I almost shed tears after hearing his last race and seeing the group photo marking the end of the Legend we know as Player or Ryan Cooper
I like to think that Jack Rourke is actually "Player" because in The Run he is basically stereotypical best racer main character guy, and at the beginning of the game you have the option to drive a Carbon Fiber M3. Of course this whole thing falls apart when you realize Ryan Cooper shows up as an opponent racer in the game but-
Sooo true. Haha. Thank you very much for your support and kindness. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html
To fell apart even more. Ryan is not the main protagonist(the Player) in UG 1 and 2, MW and Carbon. In these 4 games is same character, but it is not Ryan.
Thanks for the visit. Thank you very much for your support and kindness. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html
Ryan gets mentioned in payback as the best drivers by Mac. While doing the Speedcross story or races. And now in unbound we find out that he was in jail but got out and requested his vehicle to the unbound player to get it for him. Can’t wait if EA will continue that story!!!
This shows why NFS was so popular back then, gamers didn't even knew these stories yet they were there, the heart that the developers had put in this is so evident.

Too bad EA is ruining them...
Can't wait to play nfs unbound
I had no idea the story went this deep, both for the mighty M3 GTR *OR* the player. Assuming an age of 18 years old at the beginning of the video (the prologue of Carbon), then this puts our player at roughly 38-40 years old. That's a long and legendary career for any racer, questionably legal or not.
So True. Thank you very much for your support and kindness. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html
awesome age math. so cool
Our player is getting old lol def miss playing as him in underground 1 - Carbon
As they say, legends never retire
I mean, if Kimi Raikkonen stopped racing until he was 41 and Michael Schumacher til' 46, it's not that odd tbh. Heck, even Alonso's still driving at 40-41.
Damn the player went through so much in these games you'd think he'd retire and park his car by a beach but taking a photo with a community is a nice conclusion to the story
Yes. Legends never retire! I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html
Yeah he's retiring so the group pic will worth it
The player is us. I will do another subscribers shoutout at 10k
i think he retired in 2015
This was perfect,the chronological way u went thru all of the games and followed the BMW towards the end was awesome. Funnily the player made an appearance in need for speed:payback. In the last race of the game if memory serves. One of the racers was Ryan Cooper
Yes. It's mentioned. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html
Actually ryan cooper isn't the player of most wanted and carbon because player finished his career in palmont which his home town.plus player can't be the undercover protagonist in TRI city because you that the player is the most wanted racer in Rockport and he would be arrested for more years because the crimes he committed in rockport.and I think player had either retired from racing because in 2005 and 2006 in the beta busted from mw you will see that he is in his mid 20 -25 yrs.so cooper isn't player
I think it’s Thomas Spidowsky who drove the BMW M3 GTR.
@@shokata9923 of course anything is possible in the world of fan theories.!
@@shokata9923 i heard max is coming as a character in franchise.
There is still one story that needs to be told before "Ryan Cooper" retires for good...
You really expect a man to let somebody just steal a car from him not once, but twice? Then come close to getting it back from a smuggling ring, just to lose track of it again?
Ryan needs his Beamer, man. They been through a lot.
Ah I see you're a man of culture as well. I would love to hear your thoughts on this. Thank you very much for your support and kindness. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html
Ryan is not the owner of the BMW. He is not the main protagonist of MW and Carbon.
He is
the real revival of NFS will be him taking back the BMW, and not this cringe woke trash they do with heat and this new unbound bs. and they pretty much insult the whole Player story by letting heat protagonist take ownarship of the BMW. and that bich sayng lets show how this car shuld be driven or some bs like that. EA are real trash.
Excited to play unbound soon
This makes so much sense in so many ways, not going to lie I almost shed a tear for the player knowing where his racing finally ended and seeing the photo showing his last time racing for the series, the player was with us for 12 long years and beat pretty much the entire world he’s in, hailed as the greatest racer of all time. Wish they would make a need for speed game of the players kid or something showing the players child working his/her way up to finally meet his/her father and race him one on one and you play as the players child of course to ultimately finally get that face reveal of the player himself even though the player is ultimately just you, you are the player, so I guess it kinda wouldn’t work for a face reveal, but we could see the events take place through his point of view after the race ends where the players child reveals him/herself as his child. That is a need for speed game I would love to play in today’s time.
That would be freaking insane! Well thought. Thank you very much for your support and kindness. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html
i wish so too
And eventually, the child will realize that the man he's just won is his brother - and they will start singing a song =D
Ha. Multiverse theory
Makes no sense. It's like some wet fanfic theory. It's fitting only, if you forget any logic and common sense. The main protagonist of MW and Carbon( maybe UG1 and 2, because is just hinted a little bit)is not Ryan. His story is in Pro Street, Shift one and two. He is arrested in Undercover. What happened after that with him it's not very clear. The main protagonist in Undercover is a different character, undercover cop, a real cop, not just someone hired. Also the main protagonist of Hot persuit and Rivals is different again. Ryan story is only in Pro Street, Shift 1 and 2. The story of the protagonist with BMW is Carbon and MW, also is hinted by Rog, that very possible he is in UG 1 and 2, but one is obviously, his story end for good in Carbon. If you think logically, his story starts in Playmont with his exile and ends in Playmont, when he beating the man responsible for his exile, clear his reputation and name and win back his gf. I don't know why so many fans think, that in all games is one and only one character. It is not. And if you think logicall and without the main goal to put Ryan everywhere, you will see, that is not logical, he to be everywhere and all the time. Using this mindset, if i want, i can prove, that the main protagonist is Razor and to make one big plot twist 😂😂😂 and to make up everything to fits my theory. The answer is more simple, just different character.
Seriously speaking, growing up through this series, i never went too deep into its storyline, thinking that every NFS release is just another good racing game with a story... But the way you connected all these games and their stories in a chronological way, i really just want to restart the whole series again from scratch and actually go deep into the storyline...
A very well detailed and informative video! This video just increased my interest in the whole series by a thousand times, especially the whole storyline of the series revolving around that one car and that one _player_ .

The old most wanted and the NFS Carbon... The nostalgie that Will always be remembered in our hearts of racers and drivers 😇❤️💕🥰
So True. Thank you very much for your support and kindness. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html
Great explanation and connection of the stories but I have a couple of things to say
Darius didn't pay off Cross, that's why Cross wants Nikki to make sure he got paid and says "Just a bounty hunter, and I always get paid. Just make sure I do." Nikki pays the player's bounty (which should have been around 15 million, not 150k but it's irrelevant at this point) and saves him
I also don't think the protagonist in Undercover is the main character (or Ryan Cooper) as the police radio suggests he is caught while the protagonist is listening to it (unless it's an older recording)
True. I mentioned that Ryan Cooper in undercover is different. Thank you very much for your support and kindness. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html
Maybe it's a recorder of him being cayght by police before doing undercover jobs?
@@aqiimkhairin101 I really doubt it
@@connorclinton7650 that's what is cool about fan theory. There is no right order

My father believed that the player from MW/Carbon was also Zephyr from Rivals.

IF electronic arts thought of all this (apart from the obvious most wanted and carbon) the way you described it and created a nfs based on all this lore, there would be a need for speed revival. But so many people just want racing games for the sake of driving (which i understand) and that manifests itself in "lightweight stories to please everyone".. knowing this and EA's ways... I really hope that what lovely heaven you showed us here is true

@@AiMoun much love m8. Keep up the good work
Which game are you playing currently
My man. Same here! Gta San Andreas was golden
@@xDuviDx yeah man, not every racing games has to be always about racing too, if racing games can't have stories, then CoD should've become a mindless shooter too, no objective, you just kill soldiers from point A to B, in fact every games has it's own loop, and has it's own grinding and rewards like NFS too, it's mostly the story that become the backbone of the game itself.
It's actually always been my headcanon that the games were connected by the same player being you. It's pretty mindblowing to see it all laid out, there's connections here I really was not expecting.
Personally, I took it even further with another EA game: the F1 series. They added a "My Team" mode in 2021 where you make your own character that has somehow gotten the funding to start their own F1 team for themselves to compete. They are known as the "Owner Driver" which is a classification we haven't seen in real F1 in decades.
In my headcanon, Player realizes that he's almost reached the top of motorsport after beating the Speed Icons. So he leaves it all behind, sells his entire fleet, and decides to go legit one more time. He enters the pinnacle of motorsport with his own F1 team and eventually becomes the World Driver Champion, further cementing his status as the greatest racer of all time.

Something I always found funny is that without a doubt, the protagonists of NFS Most Wanted and NFS Carbon are supposed to be the same person, how ever the character models have completely different faces and head shape when you remove the blur effect in the busted cut scenes. I guess it'd make sense not to have it consistent considering the only time you're supposed to see his face is when it's blurred. Still something to think about though.
Yeah, they made carbon in a rush. probably the same actor didnt show up! Thank you very much for your support and kindness. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html
Goddamn I played almost every NFS game and didn't realize everything was so connected. From an underground street racer, to professional circuit racer and an undercover cop.

Ryan Cooper was arrested in one of the idle radio transmissions for the cops during undercover it's an easy detail to miss
This is what Fast and Furious should’ve been about instead of all the bs we been seeing in the last 5 movies 😂
Fantastic video!! One thing that's interesting, in NFS 2015, I remember with the update that was added "Eddie's challenge", Eddie's and Melissa's dialouge to the player was almost as they didn't know the protagonist. And since they were ones who originally faced the player, they would be the main ones who know him. Now if we're not including the update then 2015s storyline makes sense. But the add-on kind of adds a hole as it seems to throw us in a loop believing Travis was 'Player' the entire time as he was the one who knew of Eddie in the past.
Yes even the devs lost it at that point 😂🤣 Thank you very much for your support and kindness. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html
i didnt like eddie but i like his car
@@iamfineimanuremix i think everyone does
Ah I see you're a man of culture as well 😂
Yes, during the Eddie’s Challenge campaign, there is dialogue from Travis where he talks about racing Eddie back in the day and mentions Melissa. Travis is also the outlaw which makes sense given his behavior running from police and causing havoc is Most Wanted and Carbon.
After watchimg this, I still wants to call "the player" as Ryan Cooper because we are "The Player" and we have one identity, Ryan Cooper. Man, Ryan Cooper was a cool name in fact for the original NFS series. Wonder how do they got that name?
Yes indeed. Thank you very much for your support and kindness. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html

Wb the classic NFS games, the HP trilogy, prostreet and shift? Those are great too.
Also Undergrounf has nothing to do with Most Wanted and Carbon other than being in the same universe
Its all theories anyway
I knew beforehand that Need for Speed Underground 1 and 2 were connected stories, but hearing this fan thorny that the “player” has been on this long journey, from starting low in Underground 1 all the way to Most Wanted 2012, that’s one heck of a legacy. I remember my first Need For Speed game was Need for Speed Underground. I’ll always have such fun memories of trying to beat that game, and I still haven’t to this day haha. I gotta get back to playing that game and beat the levels, same with Underground 2 and Most Wanted. I’ve never played any other Need for Speed Games that much besides those 3. This is a great video explaining this timeline of how the player has been going through so many cities and racers, just to come out on the top

This is such a well done video you did on the NFS story in chronological order, hats off to you, AND props to you on this one, I’ve always thought that the Player was a completely different person after Carbon, but now, thanks to you, I now know the Player’s story in chronological order up until 2015, you’ve done what no OTHER NFS TH-camr has even come close to doing, at all. I’ve also never known that there was a real story after ProStreet and Undercover, but now I know. The NFS series has such a connected timeline, that it’s not even funny, seriously.

NFS lore is so big that it gets harder and harder to understand it. It gets more difficult to understand after 2015. That bmw is seen almost in every nfs game. In payback its abandoned, in heat it’s caught by police, in unbound it’s being delivered to razor. But also lets not forget about mobile version of nfs(no limits). There is an event called “urban legends” where we get this bmw and we can keep it if we win new blacklist at blackridge city. And also there is an event for Bugatti chiron (25 years anniversary) and through whole event we complete nfs legend games such as prostreet, underground, etc. But at the end of the event we fight mistery boss on nissan gtr. And guess who it is? It is player. As soon as we win him he tells us that “Olympic city… Bayview… Rockport… Palmont city… These are my cities. But Blackridge, I don’t need convincing. This one is yours. One day you’ll join me in infamy. I know it. Keep it up” but that’s not it. If you have that legendary bmw he says this “Oh.. and thanks for looking after the M3”

This whole time our childhood "player" that we always play has been with us so long
Yes. And he will always be our best racer hero. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html

@@AiMoun Ok but follow up question: Is NFS NL and NFS PU spin offs or part of the main story?
You didn't watch my videos did you. Spoilers- No limits is a part of the main timeline but a different protagonist. Watch my no limits story video.
@@AiMoun Ah alright
And yes, this was my first time watching your videos.
Let me know which nfs story you didn't like. Feedback
Now i understand, Great work man thanks
For people wondering Ryan Cooper and undercover player are different people, because there is a radio message from a cop talking about Ryan Cooper was arrested as we play the game
I think he added that voice line to this video
Nice effort man, keep going!

@@AiMoun I still do
Which game are you playing currently
@@AiMoun I'm still hanging around the old Need for Speed games along with racing around Forza Horizon 5
Me too. There's something that I find charming about the old nfs games. Which nfs game is your favourite
Now i actually want to play the whole series in this exact order haha. I guess my "player " has spent the most time in NFS most wanted 2012. What an underrated game with the best online ever. Over 2000h!
Haha. So relatable. Thank you very much for your support and kindness. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html

@@sirocc4933 sure. what are your interests
@@AiMoun Mostly nfs games. You could for example make a series out of fan theories. I guess that not many people, including myself know them. That could be quite interesting!
Great idea 💡 but I need help with the theory. The FANS give me the theory!
dude this is the best video i watch so far keep the work dude (i finally found the story :))) )

3:45 We can't say he bought the m3 gtr for sure though, as there is no possible way you can buy a race car that isn't road legal and is only built for race tracks.
And it is not possible to buy a stock m3 and put the parts together as most of the gtr's parts are not available to the public. There's two ways ryan cooper could've gotten it: Ryan must've been racing legally for some time or somehow snuck into a legal race and when he got behind the wheel of an m3 gtr he somehow bailed the race and left the track and then changed the livery of the m3 gtr to something of his own. OR he could've somehow found an abandoned m3 gtr and used the sponsorship money to repair it. There's no telling on how he got the paperwork (pinkslip) for the car as there is no way he could've obtained it legally.
Yep. Nothing is legal in nfs games anyway. Thank you very much for your support and kindness. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html
Already checked it out bro :)
Big fan, love your stuff ❤
Just to add a bit. The M3 GTR in Need For Speed No Limits. The player (most likely) gave it to another player and asked the new guy to beat the blacklist in that game (Yes, Razor is in there)
That's as far as I can remember
Yes. Should I also do a nfs no limits story line?? 😇 I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html
@@AiMoun Yes please make a video on NFS No Limits about how the BMW again races Razor there .
hey i did make a no limits story video. have you watch it yet?
10:36
That’s actually a really good idea. A lot of theories i read about say that Ryan’s story ends here, where he gets arrested. This is a very interesting change.
In the Hot Pursuit 2010 game, I believe that The Racer (i think he’s known as “Spectre” in No Limits?)’s story runs parallel to The Player (Cop)’s story. After the events of NFSHP2010, he gets beaten, with multiple different racers claiming the title until it reaches the “No Limits” Player. (Pursuit Legends Event, NFS No limits)
As for Rivals, my interpretation of the story is that Zephyr and Fate’s stories are intertwined, where Zero Hour (Cop’s final Mission) takes place during Grand Tour (Racer’s final Mission), and Zephyr’s crash at the end of the race is caused by Fate.
In other words, even though it seems almost as if the two careers are separate, as seen in the respective cutscenes, i believe that in a sort of “True Timeline”, Zephyr’s crash is indirectly caused By Fate, who had also ended up crashing. This connects the two careers nicely, which is why I believe that this would be a “True” Timeline.
Though, the only issue is that this theory might fall apart due to the circumstances of No limits, since it’s kind of ambiguous where it takes place, or whether it impacts the story in any way. In the “Urban Legends” event, the “Player” leaves the M3 GTR with “No Limits Player”, which contradicts the M3 being in Heat. The only possible reason could likely be that the M3 is simply another replica.
Assuming No limits isn’t canon, then i am willing to say that my theory was wrong.
Please watch my No limits Timeline. Your mind will be blown!

Now I completely understand the complete theory, or should i say, Series how the player gets to it in every Need For Speed Series. Very well explained dude. You had connected the conclusions behind it
Thank you very much for your support and kindness 💗 Do you also play games?
This story goes deep, considering not all the titles got that much appreciation, atleast they had some correlation and had the players speculate the unknown parts of the franchise..
Thank you very much for your support and kindness. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html
Yeah, definitely have decided to check that out.
Which is your favorite need for speed game
@@AiMoun I feel like it has to be NFS: MW, that was one of the only ones which I have old clear memories of which I played in the series. But I actually also have played other titles like undercover (on PS2), No Limits (I mean it was free so I tried it lol), ProStreet (played a small bit on some ps3, was used to a different type of gameplay nfs wise, so didn't enjoy it much, but it was still decent game). I probably have experienced other ones but don't either remeber or knew I was playing nfs lol. Like I have vague memories of playing something which I think was the very early versions of NFS. It's just that MW is what I really enjoyed and get hit by the nostalgia when I play it.
What did you Think about my NFSMW gameplay using cheats and mods??
actually, you don't play as Ryan Cooper in Undercover, Ryan is brought up in one or two different occasions during the game though, one of them is when you have to steal a McLaren F1, and the other time is just from one of those random bits of police chatter when you wait around in free roam long enough.
EDIT: ok, so you brought up the second thing that I mentioned, but also, given how Undercover works, whenever there's one of those Police radio dialogues, it spawns in some patrol cars, so that's why I think Ryan isn't the character you play as in Undercover, but instead just some random no name undercover cop.
2nd EDIT: also, technically, Ryan Cooper was there for the end of NFS Payback, as he's one of the racers during part 1 and 2 of the Outlaws Rush.
That's why fan theory are the best. There's no right or wrong way. Thank you very much for your support and kindness. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html
The developers of Carbon and MW actually said the protagonist is different for UG and MW/Carbon so this debunks any fan theories. Nice vid tho
Even there is clue in Carbon intro has DB9 and Cryshler 300C SRT those cars first production year is 2004 but UG1 story is 2003...
gorgeous, no one can do it better than he did

One addition to the story of NFS 2015. If you complete all the Outlaw missions (SPOILER ALERT the Outlaw is Trevor) after you meet him to congratulate you for succeeding in his cop chasing missions he says the exact line “Welcome back from the dead brother” assuming he knows who you are and what you have accomplished.
Wow I didn't know that. Thank you very much for your support and kindness. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html

I just noticed that "Players" face reminds me of Toby Marshal from the NFS movie
But a problem that I have with this is that the timeline jumps all over the place, making it inconsistent.
My head cannon is that there are multiple protagonists, and this is it:
My version of players arc is the same in the beginning. Players arc goes from Underground, but he ends with the alias Ryan Cooper as his arc ends with Shift 2, with undercover happening before shift
Player 2 is a cop, his story Is that he starts off as a cop in Seacrest County, then transferred to Redview county.
To me Zephyr's story is Hot Pursuit, Most Wanted 2012, and Rivals. Zephyr started out as a low time street racer in Seacrest, eventually becoming most wanted there, then he moved to Fairhaven City to become most wanted, and also gaining the alias "Zephyr". He then moves to Redview to become the top racer there. But eventually getting arrested
So to me the cop from Rivals and Zephyr have had beef since 2010.
Onto Player 3's story, His arc is Rivals, 2015, and Heat.
Starting out as a street racer from Rivals, it was his goal to be the best driver out there. But after Zephyrs race, he moved out of Redview, all the way down to Ventura Bay. He became the top racer there. After that it was his goal to be the best driver of the USA, so he started to gain rep in big cities all around the US, starting with Palm City.
and so that's about it.
Good job. Fan theory is amazing. Thank you very much for your support and kindness. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html
@@AiMoun Oh umm.... thanks
personally, i always thought that the black box storyline was it own thing and ended with undercover, prostreet and shift are both track racing games, but they are different, shift taking place on actual tracks like gran turismo, and prostreet taking place on sanctioned tracks, onn actual streets, kinda like race wars from the fast and the furious
Yeah it's a mix of both worlds. Multiverse! Thank you very much for your support and kindness. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html
It's all apart of the same universe, just different events
If fast and furious also had kept with their original story rather than just trying to save the world would have been much better.
Love your video man :)

this is totally mindblowing that it is all connected and I think the player didn't retire and still drives around and still races people. Still, I think he just lays back, stays calm, and shows mercy to the competition instead of destroying them as he did with each boss driver throughout his journey!
also what about NFS Carbon: Own The City ? what about that story? I think it's just underrated and great stories of NFS despite being a story for a handheld-console game!

that was one hell of a story. I almost shed tears after hearing his last race and seeing the group photo marking the end of the Legend we know as Player or Ryan Cooper
Thank you very much for your support and kindness. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html
I like to think that Jack Rourke is actually "Player" because in The Run he is basically stereotypical best racer main character guy, and at the beginning of the game you have the option to drive a Carbon Fiber M3.
Of course this whole thing falls apart when you realize Ryan Cooper shows up as an opponent racer in the game but-
Sooo true. Haha. Thank you very much for your support and kindness. I made another video for Heat, Payback and the run. th-cam.com/video/7tNNINhCcNM/w-d-xo.html
To fell apart even more. Ryan is not the main protagonist(the Player) in UG 1 and 2, MW and Carbon. In these 4 games is same character, but it is not Ryan.
It is ryan 😉

Ryan gets mentioned in payback as the best drivers by Mac. While doing the Speedcross story or races.
And now in unbound we find out that he was in jail but got out and requested his vehicle to the unbound player to get it for him.
