  • So Red Dead Redemption 2 went through a lot of changes throughout development, and some of those changes included areas that were left unused in the final build of the game.
    SOOOO I decided to explore some of them :)
    part 2 is finally here: • The Second Coming of B...

    00:15 - Beta Stuff
    00:59 - Gameplay

    That building in Mexico was an important location in RDR1. The fact it's there so highly detailed is further proof that you were probably supposed to be able to go to Mexico at some point in development.

    • @vanncarter6391
      @vanncarter6391 ปีที่แล้ว +448

      Or it’s probably because it visible from New Austin and Rockstar knew players were gonna try to go to Mexico immediately so they had to put something there to give the players something to look at.

      im a mod creator for rdr2 and Mexico was supposed to be fully explorable, interactable, and maybe have side missions there, there's only little Mexico content left along with leftover subtitle text from the Mexican military. and the 1.00 version of the game when it first launched had the Mexico buildings in the files but got removed

      the grizzlies used to be like twice as big in the beta stages, with lots of cut settlements like cohutta and iron cloud. but for some reason they cut out half of the settlements, moved some further down the map (like the loft which was supposed to be way further up north) and packed all those mountains into half of the original grizzlies. if you look at old maps of the game (some can be found inside the game as decoration) you'll see how much was wasted. It's a real shame honestly.

    As an expert of RDR1, I can tell you exactly what that tunnel and path were. That's not a path. It's the flattened ground under a railway that went through that tunnel. I think it's a mission with the Mexican Military that you get ambushed by rebels after you leave the tunnel and thus begins the most infuriating train défense mission in RDR1.
    The building is the presidential building and Fort that you first meet Captain De Santa at. There was a village around it snaking down the hill in RDR1
    Why is there water under Mexico?
    Wrong question. What you should be asking is "Where is Guarma?"
    Yes that's right, Guarma is under Mexico. I don't know if it still works but there was a glitch to get back to Guarma by using a lot of alcohol and blacking out to wake up outside the map, allowing you to run around New Austin and into Mexico that way, and then crossing the whole of Mexico very carefully as to not fall into the void until you reached Guarma

    Hey, I noticed that watching this video there are a few misconceptions that I think I should let you know
    -Firstly , the area in the intro cutscene IS in the actual map, it's not spawned in, it's quite north of Colten, when you get close enough you get a literal snow wall that tries to kill you, if you mod your way in you will notice way too much detail for an unused area, this is part of the highly speculated and sorta confirmed CUT PROLOGUE CHAPTER , that would involve Arthur in his days in New Austin and eventually their escape to Colten, you find way specific details like Dead Horses halfway covered in Snow.
    -Secondly, back in 2016 the actual RDR2 map got leaked, however, in that leak you could see that compared to the final version the map did extended way far north than the final game, that could explain why so many stuff was considered like the frozen lake and the animal spawns way out of bounds.
    -Also it was proven via mods that Arthur was meant to explore New Austin at one point of the game, he has way too much voicelines that are specific to events in New Austin that he can actually say in-game if you force him in there, such as related to the cholera pandemic in Armadillo, also all cutscenes work with him, fully animated but mostly missing voice lines, apart from this the entire New Austin map is labeled as "1899" in the internal game files, same as the citizens of New Austin, who has both 1899 and 1907 models , but only the 1899 remain used in-game, meaning that the entire New Austin area that John Marston gets to explore in the epilogue is just trapped in time 7 years before, in 1899, seems like when Rockstar decided to block Arthur off of New Austin they thought to themselves "Eh. why bother mapping 1907" and just reused the 1899 one. now this can also connect to the cut Prologue Chapter, since apart from this a lot of interesting Assets and files seem to be specific to the events that led up to the "Blackwater Massacre" , which happened right before the final game opened up. said assets go from Text Strings to unused Animations that are specific to Characters such as Dutch, beating a lady with the handle of his gun, the Lady using a specific model with her Face gorely messed up, kinda connecting to what the gang members keep saying of "Dutch killed a girl in a bad way" in the boat heist.

    The deforming snow doesn't necessarily mean it's supposed to be an accessible area. Just like the "2D snow", it's just another material/shader, only the deforming snow material has a displacement layer in its material properties. They use that material pretty much in all the snowy mountain areas but probably have an identical material without the displacement for the out of bounds areas.

      ​​@@bugbee4717I am aquanted with someone that has made some Red Dead 2 lighting mods that he put on Nexus. From what he tells me there are a few things I could say:
      Creating a whole new town would be a huge amount of work for a modder that doesn't make any money, and restoring the area to the rest of Red Dead 2s level of detail would be really laborious for a single modder. On top of that, Rockstar isn't very supportive of modders; they don't provide tools to help simplify workflows for modifying the game, which makes it really complicated and difficult compared to other games. It's not like Skyrim or Fallout where Bathesda literally provides a tool kit for modders to use that allows for modifications to the visuals and event scripting that doesn't require a degree in software engineering. Red Dead 2 has a really complicated code base that most people probably don't have the technical backround to understand and work with correctly. Keep in mind that Red Dead 2 is an absolutely enormous project that cost over $500 million to produce. Handfuls of modders here and there can only do so much to compete with what the base game offers outside of cheat menus and minor tweaks to the visuals.

    I think Mexico was cut for lore reasons. Arthur can’t go west because of the story and John has never been to Mexico years later in RDR 1. So there was no way it would make sense to go there unless you played as Charles or Sadie. I think there was gonna be DLC with those characters so maybe that’s why Mexico is molded and other areas outside of the map have design way past where there needed to be design.

    the deformable snow doesn't mean your were supposed to go there, it's a feature most likely implemented in the terrain, so everywhere there is a snow material on the terrain it will deform,
    the AI not working is probably because the navmesh isn't there, the navmesh is a mesh generated using the environment to tell where the ai can go, if it is not there the ai cannot go anywhere, only turn in place, so it won't run away when shoot, and wont have running animation as it is linked to the speed,
    for the mountains at the back, even if they're not supposed to be explored it is to still give an impression of distance, you would still be able to see theme at some places, instead of just void,
    also the world map is probably generated with a procedural tool, so they overshot the size to have more room for iteration, and then it was easier to keep the unused stuff rather than cleaning it

  • @SmellsLikeRacing
    @SmellsLikeRacing ปีที่แล้ว +11

    Mexico is probably modelled because the RDR2 map was added to RDR1 map and then assets were updated, which replaced them everywhere, even without touching the Mexico.
    Rest of the unused map is probably just painted with terrain tool, they might have painted more map than needed because maybe balloon ride initially enabled to go more places.
    Tempest Rim was probably made inaccessible because they ran out of time to polish it. Easier to make it inaccessible than to make it less detailed.
    Either way, it doesn't matter because the engine doesn't populate it when you are not there. Nobody put the water underneath the map, that's just default floor for the engine.

    I always found it odd how you couldn't get to Tempest Rim, yet it was technically in the borders of the map. Yet when you are in the first few missions in chapter 1, if you look at the map (especially the opening scene with the wagon train) you're outside the borders of the map. I've tried to make it back to those places (long ago), but I don't remember if I could ever make it back there. For the initial scene, you definitely can't make it back there, but you may be able to for the missions.

  • @shilze1
    @shilze1 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    Part of how games with huge open world maps work are they usually have "heightmaps", basically 2D images of the terrain that get made 3d in real time and have their various textures applied accordingly, and Buildings and objects like trees and rocks are just placed at specific points within that space without needing to specifically be modeled into that terrain (which means that there's some duplicates although you will never notice it if the developers do it right). This technique was also used in Redemption. This is why, even though you can't actually go to these other areas, there's no reason to remove them to save space like they might have in earlier games, and just bar the player from accessing them either artificially by making the player slide down certain surfaces, or by making actual changes to the terrain that realistically keep the player barred in within the game system. It's fairly flexible because then you can just move buildings and make the appropriate changes to the map or the building models without having to entirely discard work.
    This is also why Mexico has all of its terrain and foliage. It's probably a rough import based on the original data from Redemption, while West Elizabeth and the New Austin areas are further modified to fit the new style.
    El Presidio's presence is there just because it's supposed to be visible from the other side, but there's not really anything else like it that needs to be seen so the rest of the buildings aren't there, and no new work was needed because the old work looks good enough from further away.

I especially like the areas beyond the south eastern corners of the map like Lemoyne. There are some pretty cool views in that area with the occasional animal spawn. Some of the animal ai actually seemed to work as well.

      it seems like they could have cut like 20gb of unused content and still had a completely unaltered core experience.
