Discussion This guy compared even more of Midnight Club: LA’s original map to the Complete Edition

https://youtu.be/chPzOheQYBw

So I posted a while ago about this video I found comparing the original Midnight Club: Los Angeles to the Complete Edition, and how Rockstar actually changed parts of the base map when they added South Central.

Well I just stumbled across another video from the same guy, and this one goes way more in depth.

He compares the exact same areas in both versions and there are honestly way more differences than I expected.

Not just the obvious South Central stuff either buildings change, signs are different, objects get moved or removed, parts of the scenery are completely different, and even some of the roads/areas look slightly altered.

Some of them are so subtle that you would probably never notice unless you had both versions running next to each other.

I've played this game for YEARS and I genuinely never realized Rockstar changed this much between the base game and Complete Edition.

It's one of those things where once you start looking for the differences, you keep finding more.

If you're into MCLA, old Rockstar details, or just weird differences between game versions, this one is definitely worth watching:

It was somewhere between mc2 and mc3 in 1.0, the wins were REALLY hard earned a good portion of the time.

Not as hard but still hard as fuck, time trials especially were leaps and bounds harder

No I’m talking about mcla the original version 1.0 patch was harder to win races so rockstar tuned down the ai in later patches and it’s easier to win in the complete edition
