Idk if you already know about this fact and found it not interesting enough, but Lamar and Franklin voice actors Solo and Slink mentioned during Gamologys 1 million subs special where they react to GTA V scenes that instead of Stretch Franklin originally shot D during The Long Stretch mission. Not that important in the end but I think its a cool little info
@@Top_Weeb Wasn’t it confirmed on the radio that Floyd was killed by being shot (probably by Debra who was originally holding the gun) while Debra was stabbed to death (probably by Trevor after picking up the knife Floyd was initially holding to avenge him)?
Lamar's actor once said that Lamar was meant to have solo missions and a bigger role in the story, but he was "tied up" at some point and Rockstar had to keep on working without him, but they let him continue his role after he was free
I find it funny that as criminals, they do they paleto score just to buy things for another heist, instead of ya know stealing the things they need, making them untraceable. Like mikey leaving his backpack in the life invader office, for a veteran he is kinda amateur. It's all kinda strange the more you think about it
Kind of like in Gta 4. Niko will make a phone call. "The jobs done. I killed him for you boss" Way to admit everything over the phone. The Rockstar writers need to hire someone that can write and think with actual logic.
I've completed the campaign exactly 6 times as I didn't know that you can scare architect and steal the plans- I always killed him and then had to clear the wanted level
Another interesting thing to note is that in a video on Gameology, the voice actor of Franklin revealed that originally in The Long Stretch, Franklin was the one who used the gun to kill D but it changed to Stretch killing D.
I could swear that Lamar kills D in the original game. Stretch is cool with the Ballas, since you know he constantly sets Lamar and Franklin up for the Ballas to hustle them or kidnap/kill them. He got close to the ballas in prison and is now one of them or atleast very connected to them. Definetly Lamar.
Stretch killing D wouldn't make a lot of sense and could definitely be a later addition due to complications regarding Lamar's VA, as Stretch in the original plot was probably more like a Big Smoke-type double crosser and D was an OG of the Ballas
My theory for the Paleto score is that midway trough development, the story changed so much, that the heist wouldn't make sense to exist, but they kept it bc they knew it was too much of a big and impressive setpiece to dump
Surprised this video doesn't mention the entire cut heist at Madrazo's house, where Michael and Trevor would dress up as clowns during a party. It is heavily implied as Trevor says they were "casing the joint" during Caida Libre.
@@welheizel9682 I don't see how it would be off topic when the title says "GTA 5'S Removed and Altered Missions". It's a removed mission, that's pretty on topic lol.
There was also a mission where Michael had to steal a Hydra fighter jet for Solomon Richards. I don’t know why Solomon needs a military grade vehicle for his films but it would be cool to have the Hydra in the story mode
Might be a crazy theory of mine, but I think it would make sense Michael do that in that movie called "the simp" which already has a trailer in the final version in the cinemas, in this movie there's some hydras
Kinda interesting that a few of these were done to make Michael less bloodthirsty. Michael is still a monster but I guess they wanted to make him seem more sane than Trevor at least. Although I would argue that Michael going out murdering and stealing and then trying to live the domestic life with his family, is still pretty insane. That insane part of Michael was never going anywhere though. Even if he hadn't pulled Madrazzo's house down, something else would have pulled him back into the game.
Not all adrenaline junkies are doing extreme sports. Some are doing extreme crime. However Michael always tried to avoid murder. In the Prologue he did not want to kill any security guards or cops but the cops forced his hand. He did not want to kill Laslo, the janitor and many more. He is not bloodthirsty but also has no problem killing when it is required for him to retain his freedom and riches.
@@Jartran72in the prologue he didnt want any casualties because he made a deal with dave and no casualties was part of the terms (before everything went wrong) not because hes morally good
@@kendalroycoalso the fact that Michael Townley is so infamous that "killing" him gave Dave an incedible boost in his career might say alot about how intense Michael is, atleast in his prime.
This is a very high effort video. Well researched, well edited, much attention to detail with mods or director mode, it would be criminal for this video to underperform
What about the fact that he made sevaral mistakes? If it was well-researched he wouldn't say things like there being no reason for Franklin to abandon the boat when in fact it is mentioned in-game that the bay was full of cop boats which is why Franklin abandoned it.
@@nogoodgod4915 No, the point he makes with the boat isn't about Franklin leaving the boat. It's about they having a boat in the first place, as they're doing the heist to have money to buy stuff for a later heist, including buying a boat. If they already have a boat, no need to get money to buy another boat.
Later heists being done according to choices in previous ones makes perfect sense, as Rockstar did want GTA V to be more RPG-like game, but only ended up having choices for the player near the endings. RPG's commonly have later missions affected by previous ones, like in Cyberpunk what choices you have in Act 3 and what endings unlock for you and your companions are completely dependent upon your choices during the Act 2 of the game and the ending of Phantom Liberty expanion is determined by choices during the Expansion's playthrough and it also affects ending of the main game. Similar plans could have been in place for GTA V. This also explains why gunmen skill is broken, i.e. their skill never increase. Originally there was probably more to the crew system than plain bad or good, maybe their deaths would have dependent upon your choices during the heist. We can only guess..
I honestly cant tell if it's just me, but the cop at the desk on the "eye in the sky " @ 3:52 mission sounds like a literal middle schooler trying to sound like an adult no? Lmao I just cant unhear it
I think in hang ten they changed it to imply that Debra killed Floyd and Trevor killed Debra in revenge. The weasel news report states that the man was shot and the woman stabbed, amd Debra was the only one with a gun.
Phenomenal video as always but, I mostly wanted to comment for the sake of the thumbnail, it is amazing. It's extremely high quality and it has a very lovely style. I hope we get to see more of such thumbnails. (I also love how it implies that Davey is a protagonist.)
I Believe that the B option for pleato score was to NOT LEAVE the bank at all as the text suggested 'hold up' thus making a heavy rescue with a tank logically makes sense. Never no why they scrapped that part. May partially from the terrible logic of the tank itself.Rockstar only figured out sensible seater-independ vehicles way further in APC of Gunrunning DLC for GTAO
That makes sense since the paleto score is based on the 1997 LA Bank of america heist in which the heavily armed robbers instead of trying to escape stayed there
I personally would’ve loved if, in Monkey Business, you were told of the 6 man team requirement beforehand, and you could choose old heist members to help you
oh my god 3:28 i finally realised why on bleeter the probably guy that was meant to survive said "It's an outrage! The police threw Sebastian off a bridge and took our cars! Daddy's so buying me a Grotti now. #lspd #police brutality #reversesnobbery" i was so confused after reading that considering nobody threw anyone off a bridge
You know, the change from having Cheng's translator get killed by the jet engine to it being Molly after taking the film print would explain why they had to add the whole "that wasn't actually the only print, the film was all digital, she didn't have to die at all" joke Because while Trevor would certainly chase someone through the airport purely for the sake of chasing them, they needed to create a reason for Michael to chase after Molly, and after realizing it didn't make much sense for it to be the ONLY print, they decided to make it a joke Plus, it kinda explains why they have Molly, who is usually pretty calm and collected, suddenly panic and think Michael is trying to kill her. Since those actions were originally attributed to the translator, who was running from Trevor who was probably ACTUALLY trying to kill him
I feel as if it was practically a last minute change,they didn't have a plan for "save film studio" (i'll just call it legal trouble),so they just changed that mission to be a michael mission with molly instead,because well,they had no fucking idea what to do with legal trouble.
The fact that the clips were created moding the game to show how it was intended to be at the beggining makes this video so interesting to watch!! cool concept made with hard work, love u DarkViper
Ik it’s late but here’s a theory: The Paleto Score was originally going to be after Monkey Business. The chopper and boat for the raid were originally stolen or provided by the FIB guys, then after the raid the crew decided to reuse them for the heist.
Is it possible that there was a mission where Matthew judge was graduating from college and Michael and Jimmy had to step in and revoke the diploma to ensure his streaming career would take off?
What I didn't and still don't get is that the gap in Molly's attitude between in the first cutscene of the mission and during the chase. Like, why does she act like everything is going as planned, and then not, as soon as she starts driving? Now if it was supposedly Mr. Cheng's translator, it makes more sense.
No one will see this, but Legal Trouble originally was the fourtt Trevor mission where Trevor went on a rampage to kill Cheng and the Translator. The mission plays out the exact aame, except Trevor has an objective to destroy 13 police cars.
Didn't Cheng die in option c? I haven't played in a while but but I think Franklin kills him. It'd make sense if they changed it because of that. Like how in 4 Niko could get a call to hit the mafia dude or Bulgarin, who dies at the end of BOGT so they forced Niko to kill the other guy.
i would be surprised if the ballad of rocco wasnt originally meant to be different, since the mission we got sucks total ass. a horrible goodbye from a character that played such an important role in tbogt
It was nice to kill him but its a very short mission, its quite similar to how Ryder was killed, as in you just shoot him in a driveby but with cars instead of boats etc.
@@SoAaron_ yeah exactly, they definitely ran out of time and just made this dumb mission, same with ryder, he was originally meant to play a different role in the story but there were some complications with the voice actor
When I heard that we were supposed to sleep for 50 days in the Epsilon missions, I was like "50 days??" and the running in the desert for 20 miles. I'm glad Rockstar changed that
Ive noticed something that was taken away from normal gameplay thats in the newer versions of gta 5 and still on xbox 360 and probably ps3 versions, when I recently played gta 5 on the 360 i crashed into a vehicle driven by a NPC and the part of the vehicle i hit was the front tire and it came off and ive noticed that never happens in the newer versions of gta5
No thats actually the IMPLIED thing that happens in the final game,man,shot,woman stabbed (says it on weasel news) Like it says in the developer description of the mission the original plan had both be killed by trevor
At one point during development there was an Orgy involving people in their 60's. I can't remember the story but I know Michael turned up at their house and the scenes were wild. A true sight to behold
A remnant of the original story behind "Legal Trouble" left in the game is that when switching to the Weazel News helicopter, one of the headlines reads, "Globalpol sting leads to car chase through Los Santos".
You should look up the game “The Corridor” it has a “Content creator” mode that adds a message to the creators that I think you would resonate with. I don’t want to spoil it but the game is story based like the Stanley Parable.
I've just done the Paleto score yesterday and it made even less sense for me, since Trevor had a Cargobob from the Merryweather score (option B makes you hijack one from Fort Zancudo)
8:25 this version of the heist (at least the bit where u land the helicopter on the building) is part of the contracts update when u do the dr dre missions for the agency, so its kind of interesting that its called the agency heist
Yeah Monkey business makes no sense how they are like you need 6 people, like it could easily be done with 3. 2 people go into the place (hell, could be done even with 1 but let's say there's too many people for 1 guy, and it's gotta be 2, but no way 3 are NEEDED) and one flies the chopper and then Frank literally doesn't do anything, so any of the other guys could do his job after they deliver the stuff.
The capabilities of the player aren't canon to the abilities of the characters. Trevor is the only/best pilot so he was in the cargobob. Frank and Michael could have gone in shooting, but in Canon Frank is a driver, not meant to be a very good shooter, so he likely would have bee running logistics like we see him in the game. I think the extra people for the actual fight are because Michael canonically should have been hanging back during the fight (I'm pretty sure he has a line of ambient dialogue which goes, "I take one hit in the wrong place and we're all dead).
@@SidneySaturday I mean sure he's not some Deadshot, but by this point of the game he should be at least confident in shooting. Like sure his main skill is driving, but even in his story he gets in plenty of shootouts. And yeah as I mentioned purely gameplay wise it could have been done with 2 people total, but let's say that it's supposed to be too hard for just one to do the shottout lore wise and so we give them 2, making a total of 3.
00:00 🕵 Early GTA 5 files reveal cut content and changes during development. 00:42 🔫 "Friend Request" mission had two parts: planting a bomb and phone execution. 01:09 🚓 "Long Stretch" had a different setup at a recycling plant initially. 02:02 🚔 Franklin was supposed to be a police informant in "Caida Libre." 03:45 🚁 "Eye in the Sky" had a helicopter favor instead of Devon Weston. 04:31 💼 "Carbine Rifles" heist originally had multiple approaches. 05:42 🚤 "Monkey Business" plot had a contradiction involving equipment. 08:03 🗃 "Architect Plans" had three options for Franklin initially. 09:30 🏢 "Bureau Raid" was once called the "Agency Heist." 11:09 🚚 "Grassroots" mission involved stealing a monster truck of drugs. 11:24 🎮 "Parenting 101" had a different storyline involving Jimmy's online date.
Good video as always, but I think it was way too fast. The stream of information was constant and there was not any downtime to allow me to palate the info I got.
GTA 5 is 10 years old and you still somehow find new and interesting things to make videos about. Rockstar should bundle these into bonus content when they re re re re release it for ps6.
The Agency Heist is still the name of the soundtrack of the Bureau Raid, I listen to the soundtrack enough that I often forget the mission's real name. Definitely suggests the name was changed late in development.
Jesus, the Epsilon quest is exceedingly repetitive and irritating already. Imagine having to do 50 days and 20 miles?! Thank Kifflom that somebody realized how insane that is.
You know, in hindsight, Michael getting Trevor to help him Caida Libre, when he critcized Davey for doing this with the Mr. K mission earlier on AND knowing what Trevor can do, is one of the more stupid things the characters do in the plot. Considering what we know and see of Trevor, Michael getting him to help someone like Madrazo was just a baffling decision.
I think Micheal knew working for Madrazo would turn out badly and genuinely did want to protect Franklin. Trevor might be a terrifying psychopath, but so is Madrazo, and Trevor is OUR terrifying psychopath. Poor Mike didn't have a whole lot to work with. (plus for narrative reasons the game needed to coop Micheal and Trevor up together, and Michael being a smelly angry asshole in Sandy Shores is far more worth it imo)
Yeah, I see that. But I feel based on all Michael has said and seen of Trevor, it feels like a weird decision for him to make. It seems like he didn't even consider Trevor might do something crazy or if he did, he didn't take good enough steps to stop him.
@@commanderproton7763 I guess Michael thought that getting paid would pacify trevor. clearly he was right, since not getting paid made him kinda get a little angry
@@SidneySaturday IIRC, Michael didn't even know if Madrazo was gonna pay him or not, hence why he tells Trevor over the phone that if he doesn't, to let him handle it. It's certainly something he should've cleared first, I think. Who knows if that would've changed things. I feel like this mission overall feels like a contrived way to force Michael and Trevor out of Los Santos for a bit.
This is not an exhaustive list of everything found in the file, and I will probably end up covering more in future videos.
that's nice
You made a mistake at 7:30. It's not at all ambiguous that Trevor kills Floyd and Debra.

Even though I know a lot about GTA V's cut content. It was pleasantly surprising to find out some extra things. Keep up the good work.
Can you give me copy link of his secret videos on member exclusive
love that he didn't know who to put in the fourth slot in the thumbnail so he just put davey
THANKS for the vid matto
Wow, you can tell that a lot of effort was put into this video, and the result is great, keep up the amazing job, Matt ❤
Ive noticed something that was taken away from normal gameplay thats in the newer versions of gta 5 and still on xbox 360 and probably ps3 versions, when I recently played gta 5 on the 360 i crashed into a vehicle driven by a NPC and the part of the vehicle i hit was the front tire and it came off and ive noticed that never happens in the newer versions of gta5
now this is great content, def gonna need more similiar sutff Matt
7:32 The deleted scene for Hang Ten showed Debra killing Floyd, and then Trevor would brutally beat Debra to death.
would like to know where you found this ''deleted scene'' from
@@welheizel9682 I looked up "Hang ten deleted scene" on RUclips.
No thats actually the IMPLIED thing that happens in the final game,man,shot,woman stabbed (says it on weasel news)
Like it says in the developer description of the mission the original plan had both be killed by trevor
@@Damian-cilr2 At the time Trevor was unarmed, how could he kill both of them?
@@SecretAgentEhe had plot armor
1:50 I can’t believe he would call the families “grove Street”
At one point during development there was an Orgy involving people in their 60's. I can't remember the story but I know Michael turned up at their house and the scenes were wild. A true sight to behold
I remember hearing that on Vadim M's video
matto never fails to make me smile :) thanks for yet another awesome upload !
A remnant of the original story behind "Legal Trouble" left in the game is that when switching to the Weazel News helicopter, one of the headlines reads, "Globalpol sting leads to car chase through Los Santos".
Nice catch!
Thankyou for these cool vids after all these years viper
Going through and handing out likes, and then the intro made me laugh out loud. Great people.
9:10 This is why in the game files another version of the blood splatter with the Translator's half face exists!
They can’t keep getting away with it!!!
They can because we keep buying into their good old days dopamine, the decent company they were when we were all still in our youth...
20 miles actually makes sense as its roughly the length of a standard marathon.
4:26 If you do both Devin's missions and then Mr. Richards, Madrazo calls him and Michael tells him that
Ive completed this game exactly 21 times and this cut content sounds pretty cool
3:58 “The helipad’s on the roof” Where the hell else would it be? The basement?
Yes
Glad to see all four protagonists in the thumbnail: Franklin, Michael, Trevor and Davey.
CONGRATS ON 1000 VIDS MATE!
4:00 “oh oh right ugh the helipad is on the roof” ….. well no shit where else would it be, in the basement? 😂
The heist with the multiple banks and the sea escape would have been so fucking cool
Fleeca contract from tuners
You should look up the game “The Corridor” it has a “Content creator” mode that adds a message to the creators that I think you would resonate with. I don’t want to spoil it but the game is story based like the Stanley Parable.
I've just done the Paleto score yesterday and it made even less sense for me, since Trevor had a Cargobob from the Merryweather score (option B makes you hijack one from Fort Zancudo)
Getting on top of the container reminds me of the first mission in Saints Row 3, where the saints rob a bank vault and hang on top of it.
2:59 I’m glad you finally watched Heat after such a long time (of me telling you to).
Jimmy getting forced to larp wouldve been funny
8:25 this version of the heist (at least the bit where u land the helicopter on the building) is part of the contracts update when u do the dr dre missions for the agency, so its kind of interesting that its called the agency heist
I absolutely loved the intro I replayed it like 10 times. It's so funny. Love the video
Bro I literally never knew what D was talking about when he was on about gang intervention, That makes so much sense now
Yeah Monkey business makes no sense how they are like you need 6 people, like it could easily be done with 3. 2 people go into the place (hell, could be done even with 1 but let's say there's too many people for 1 guy, and it's gotta be 2, but no way 3 are NEEDED) and one flies the chopper and then Frank literally doesn't do anything, so any of the other guys could do his job after they deliver the stuff.
The capabilities of the player aren't canon to the abilities of the characters. Trevor is the only/best pilot so he was in the cargobob. Frank and Michael could have gone in shooting, but in Canon Frank is a driver, not meant to be a very good shooter, so he likely would have bee running logistics like we see him in the game. I think the extra people for the actual fight are because Michael canonically should have been hanging back during the fight (I'm pretty sure he has a line of ambient dialogue which goes, "I take one hit in the wrong place and we're all dead).
@@SidneySaturday I mean sure he's not some Deadshot, but by this point of the game he should be at least confident in shooting. Like sure his main skill is driving, but even in his story he gets in plenty of shootouts.
And yeah as I mentioned purely gameplay wise it could have been done with 2 people total, but let's say that it's supposed to be too hard for just one to do the shottout lore wise and so we give them 2, making a total of 3.

Long Stretch not Lamar Down my dude
@@buckybrown1048 thanks, ai dosen't pickup everything
@@prodbypreetwait is this (mostly generated by chat gpt? If that is true then that’s crazy cool.
@@Overflow066 it is all generated by chatgpt
This intrigues me as I wonder how much content set for GTA6 was "cut" to be repurposed for GTA Online.
Nice to see Matto reference heat as it's one of my favourite movies
I can't believe that all these years later he still calls that mission "Cada Libre".
8:19 bro got mugged got save and got mugged again 💀
Nah but the clip before it 💀
This one was really awesome, thank you for putting all that together. Cheers, sir
Good video as always, but I think it was way too fast. The stream of information was constant and there was not any downtime to allow me to palate the info I got.
4:10
For anyone who didnt notice, the name Vinewood Babylon is a reference to a Misfits song called Hollywoof Babylon.

50 days? heck, no, 10 days is already hell for me...
GTA 5 is 10 years old and you still somehow find new and interesting things to make videos about. Rockstar should bundle these into bonus content when they re re re re release it for ps6.
The only thing I wish Rockstar didn't removed was single player DLC
The original plans for the architect mission sound hilarious and would've made the mission that much more memorable.
Looking good as always Matt
I wish these removed and altered missions were left in the game.
The Agency Heist is still the name of the soundtrack of the Bureau Raid, I listen to the soundtrack enough that I often forget the mission's real name. Definitely suggests the name was changed late in development.
5:58 I guess it was the weather
Underrated
i love this videos about unreleased/changed content
Very Interesting, Thanks Matto 😊👍
Transition at the end scared the crap out of me.
Jesus, the Epsilon quest is exceedingly repetitive and irritating already. Imagine having to do 50 days and 20 miles?! Thank Kifflom that somebody realized how insane that is.
Ha, I mean, you wanted to join a cult, now do it.

-Random person I met on the streets
Wasn't there supposed to be a mission where we have to break into Martin's house?
Yes,where Michael and Trevor would act like a gay couple
love your content
You know, in hindsight, Michael getting Trevor to help him Caida Libre, when he critcized Davey for doing this with the Mr. K mission earlier on AND knowing what Trevor can do, is one of the more stupid things the characters do in the plot. Considering what we know and see of Trevor, Michael getting him to help someone like Madrazo was just a baffling decision.
I think Micheal knew working for Madrazo would turn out badly and genuinely did want to protect Franklin. Trevor might be a terrifying psychopath, but so is Madrazo, and Trevor is OUR terrifying psychopath. Poor Mike didn't have a whole lot to work with. (plus for narrative reasons the game needed to coop Micheal and Trevor up together, and Michael being a smelly angry asshole in Sandy Shores is far more worth it imo)
Yeah, I see that. But I feel based on all Michael has said and seen of Trevor, it feels like a weird decision for him to make. It seems like he didn't even consider Trevor might do something crazy or if he did, he didn't take good enough steps to stop him.
@@commanderproton7763 I guess Michael thought that getting paid would pacify trevor. clearly he was right, since not getting paid made him kinda get a little angry
@@SidneySaturday IIRC, Michael didn't even know if Madrazo was gonna pay him or not, hence why he tells Trevor over the phone that if he doesn't, to let him handle it.
It's certainly something he should've cleared first, I think. Who knows if that would've changed things.
I feel like this mission overall feels like a contrived way to force Michael and Trevor out of Los Santos for a bit.
I’ve always noticed how on the back cover for the game the cadia libre bike chase was done by Franklin as he’s on a bike chasing the plane
Fantastic video!
Great video! Very well made
I'd be worried about talking about files Rockstar left in, last time someone talked about their files, chaos.
