As first, I do not know in which board should this be so move if needed. Spoiler alert Ok, so lets get started. I personally think the story is much better, it is also kinda similar: a mystery about a race/death main antoagonist Darius (a stiupid sucker)/EX (a mutherfucking gangsta with money power in Coast City) during some cutscenes we can see Poorboy (one of the bosses) driving the car past Carter (wingman), on his 240sx we can see this Eastsiders vinyl. Easter egg? maybe. I think it was supposted to be a crew in the PC and console Carbon. Why? You can't apply decals in the OTC, but in "main" Carbon, yes. And on this pic this car has decals. Just another pic Off the story. Now customization: it does not have autosculpt or decals, instead of that you can put your crew logo on your car without combining many vinyls. And thats all about customization. Your crew: instead of having 5 crappy wingman, you can pick of more than 30, and you can have 2 per race, it is much better. You can even level them. And there are no useless scouts, intead of them you have guys with spike strips. The city: Everybody knows it's name is Coast City and that it's based off Rockport but without Camden. Here's a pic: And notice, there is no "Own the City" in the logo in the left higher corner. and the city looks HUGE, even bigger than Fairhaven. As far as i know, "NFS drawers" never concepted a city bigger than it should be. Coast City = Mystery City? That's all for now, updates coming

I think its starts to become like conspiracies with the whole Mystery City thing, anyone ever thought that unknown city never really existed? I don't think Coast City is that big as it is 2/3 of Rockport and the concept art it doesn't look like that giant the way you say it like... Just sayin Hm, can't really answer that as we never know how many concept of cities they draw, but you can say some concepts never make it, are replaced by others or appears differently.

You're right about one thing. Coast City is like a clone of Rockport. You can put this picture in your thread but be sure to credit me. I knew there was something familiar about Poorboy's crew and logo name. Nice find man Another thing, the place is called "Coast City" so why I am not seeing any coastlines at all? All I see is mountains

guys i hope you know that Carbon was meant to be Underground 3 (hence the Eastsiderz vinyl) i mean like seriously, Carbon was in development as soon as UG1 was finished and when UG2 was released UG3 was teased/ mentioned by Marc De Vellis. it makes sense to me but idk about you

guys i hope you know that Carbon was meant to be Underground 3 (hence the Eastsiderz vinyl) i mean like seriously, Carbon was in development as soon as UG1 was finished and when UG2 was released UG3 was teased/ mentioned by Marc De Vellis. it makes sense to me but idk about you Nah, that's hardly possible as each title was in development for about two years only...also it would mean Most Wanted either developed after Carbon started or before Hot Pursuit and that is not possible as it would throw U and U2 into the mid 90's... The Eastsiderz Vinyl is only seen in Own The City, its independent to the real NFS Carbon.The handheld version wasn't even developed by EA Canada/Black Box, its probably just recycling the files and its only seen on a car from a comic sequence as far as I know. Marc mentioned Underground 3 in an Interview but EA declined further Underground sequels after Underground 2.Also, maybe it was a joke by him. Carbon can be seen as Underground 3 in one way or the other - but it much improved over the original Underground titles, e.g. better cars.

This game was mediocre but the storyline and the artwork absolutely rocked!!
About the theories, first of all, I think this game is in the same universe as every other NFS game, regardless of what company made it. EA never confirmed they are in different universes right? So I think they are all the same. I know the city in this one and others looks too much like Rockport but that's just a limitation of the game, it doesn't mean the city is actually like that I think. I mean NFS has had unrealistic locations before and many games have to adapt their cities to make the production easier (like Midnight Club didn't have life-size New York for example) so the city in this game has the same layout as Rockport because the recycled the assets but within the game's "reality" it's not like that. As for the Eastsiders, they are an actual crew in the game, just like the crews in the main Carbon. I don't think they were meant to be in the main Carbon and that they were included here since EA's mobile games companies usually take more liberties with the content. But I think this crew is meant to be part of the same Eastsiders from Underground, even though that's not quite relevant since the stories aren't connected by any character.

Guys, you know how none of the handheld Underground games had a story mode or any story at all? I thought that maybe OTC was meant to be the underground handheld game. Mainly because of all the Underground "leftovers" in OTC such as the eastsiderz and the comic strip style cutscenes. I mean compare this to carbon (main) and they look nothing alike. Then compare it to UG2 and boom! An awful lot of similarities! And also the customization is closer to Underground's and the crew logos. I think that this was meant to be in Underground from the very start. I mean how the hell do you take out a bunch of crews by yourself? Now you're probably sitting there saying that it's just cuz it's a game and the plot needs that to keep going but doesn't carbon (as in the PC and home console versions) feel more Underground-ish than the actual UG games did? Here. Put UG's story in carbon and remove carbon's (and the fast cars too. Only tier 1 cars allowed lol). You have a crew to fight other crews and you can slap your crew logo on your car and your members' cars too. Doesn't that sound like an actual Underground game? Crews was something revolutionary in Underground but it was just there for show. It didn't influence gameplay at all. Carbon however put that team feeling into the game. MW 2005 made sense since you took out ppl 1 by one. Not a whole crew in one shot and you win. The point is that OTC might have just been meant to be what they wanted the handheld UG's to be. IMO OTC does a better job at feeling like Underground than UG 1 and 2.
Now I go off top : If carbon was well.. Carbon, then how come it feels so much like underground? It's got everything an underground game would have and more. Crews, canyon duels (and don't tell me underground didn't aim for that. If underground was set in Tokyo ppl would call it a midnight club ripoff but I'm sure it would've done a better job) improved customization, loads of tuners, and hell even sponsor vinyls were still there. My point is that carbon is just another name for Underground 3. Carbon is Underground 3 and it succeeded at delivering at a major point that underground couldn't. Your own crew. So you can say that I love underground basically.
Anyway. Can someone somehow make a mod for carbon with underground 2's story? The story was awesome... But it needs better cars!

That's out, none of the handheld versions were ever alike with the main retail versions as the handheld system can't handle it otherwise and they're developed by different studios and the handheld cities were based off the same map almost everytime - the comic sequences can be explained as the story is totally different because the handheld couldn't run the original game concept, they had to write & draw an alternate story, obviously recording new cut scenes with actors would be too much work and too expensive for a minority version of the game.
No, I don't think Underground was supposed to have player crews and custom crew logos - that's just thinkin over the top, in fact there was only one crew in U1 and U2, both were rivals - nothing revolutionary as you say.
In Carbon you don't take down crews at once, you first have conquer territories and then battle the major crew boss of the district, however, you never race against the whole crew, the members however race in the one or the other normal race.You also don't race alone but with a crew member - but to answer your question, you can take out crews on your own by winning against them, simple.
At the bottom Carbon feels like Underground for one or the other, because of certain things that remind on Underground and Underground 2 - it however isn't about the tuner scene, it's just blending you.The major reason is that it all happens at night and the customiziation is deeper and detailed - but no extra awkward things like in Underground 2.
I don't associate crews with underground cause crews can be found anywhere of any type.

Uhh,Undercover for iPhone does have a story mode,until Shift rolled around.Then removed it,except for the dude that teaches you how to drive.Shift 2 Unleashed and so on,they didn't have a person.Instead,it was just text telling you how to play the game.

That post chain defines you. You are newbie spraying out utterly obvious things in "teachin"/diskuvveryi!" Mode like we are not able to get it right untill your highness clears everything out with his small "info revolution". We know every of these already, you just copied map already done by someone here(in this very thread). You're just like xtrafax (Rebounz or something like that now) newbish, but posting this in few posts to make sure that your post count will rise well to certain lvl "discretely". Listen boi, attention whoring and post "fame" is not a deal here, it is used to represent truly most active ppl on the site, not fame/attraction looking newbs like you and Rebounz. Learn that sir and stop going out with random bullshit like that, please... (are ya happy cuz of me callin ya 'sir'? If yeah dnt choke on that, it's not cuz of "respect" just want to fill you famewhoring ego a bit(as person with highest post count)enjoy that moment boi, cuz its your last)
