NFS Carbon: Kenji

Well, someone had to appear of the bosses, might be that the downtown area was supposed to be the first district to be taken control of before they added a selection of cars which defines your starter district.

Or just, someone had to?

But, why EA dropped Kenji, and create Darius as Final Boss?

Nah, cut scenes were done during early or mid stage game development, so the story was done and characters were also set.Since the cut scenes and story were about Darius being the main rival, Kenji couldn't be the final boss.

As said earlier by me, and above by blablaam...he probably was either the first rival to face or they just picked a boss for this for no specific meaning.

LeSamurai could been a minor crew (the name is so lol) like those of you can unlock the Bonus vinyls.If Im right, few single districts of the main boroughs are owned by different crews until you take them, ever noticed that the territories owner changes until you get em? It does, the main crews battle the minor crews to get control of the districts within the borough.You also have to accept random crew battles during career to defend your district, if you lose or cancel you lose the territory the battle was about.

Actually, there's a district net for that map in the files, it counts 19 territories.However, this doesn't mean there are 19 Crews, but the city is split in 19 districts.I think the dmeo evne has the net placed on the map, not sure.

Fortuna is the north west district, Kempton is that south district on that peninsula.Silverton is on the north east and Downtown is below it on the east.

In Fortuna there are those district flags in blue with that logo lin gold/yellow like of the New Orleans Saints, maybe it's related to the Fortuna Kings or The Kings.

But in fact the cut scenes were made in early development stage, the crews had their names in concept already.The final crews are also mentioned in the character's bio seen in the CE bonus videos, Stecked Deck did exist.

I believe, this demp map never existed in driveable stage, also from an interview canyons came late to the previous concept which dumnps the theory of ther ebeing canyons in on the demo map, and evne the demo Lookout Point is next to the districts according to the map, but whehn in the race its just look like in the final and is far away from any civilization.Just like San Juan, the map shows its supposed to be in the middle of the city, but in races its in the middle of a desert, just like in the final game, there aren't hints of it being near other roads.
