The pathfinding AI in this game was pretty sketch at times (probably not surprising given the game's age, but still). If I remember correctly, the AI racers followed set courses on the base tracks with a few coded-in alternatives and shortcuts. When doing this they were pretty competitive, but if they deviated from those routes at all they were hopeless. I remember custom courses being so disappointing because the AI couldn't figure out how to run the course beyond taking the simplest path to the next checkpoint like they were following a GPS. I also remember certain features completely breaking their AI. For instance, there were elevated train tracks on the Japan level that you could place checkpoints on in the custom course maker, but if you tried to get the AI to drive up there they'd immediately veer off and fall down. I remember one track I made as a kid had the race start on the tracks, then had the next checkpoint on the road below so that the AIs having a stroke and driving off the tracks was actually part of the race.
They also share the same pathfinding as the trains, which is why they follow the tracks when you put them on there. Basically, they hit the copy paste technique for the code 😂
I used to think they were just mad dumb this time and they finally lost it during my custom races 🤣 maan that shyt mad me feel real good at the game again, until I went back into storyline of Tokyo 😅
Oh yeah? Well I remember putting the vehicles on the tracks in Detroit! Those are elevated. I remember watching them drive, and then drive off the tracks and drive on nothing in the air, and go through buildings, and then eventually return to the tracks.
its not a bug. games made around that time were pretty simplistic. the trams in the cities are coded with the same traffic mover behavior as the cars, therefore the rails they rode on used the same traffic pathing that the streets do (with the formality that crossings are treated as intersections where turns arent allowed). meaning if you pushed any car onto the rails, it will follow those rails as if it were a normal road. its VERY hard to do but you can do the same thing in detroit and tokyo if you can push a car onto the elevated tracks without disabling it.
I don’t know why the algorithms give me this in my recommendations but i’m glad this game was big part of my childhood and one of the biggest reasons i became a cars guy
In the game series Crash Time, you could do something similar. You can stop in front of crossroad and just wait, how an NPC car is smashed by oncoming train. It could be very hilarious. But at the same time, really deadly 💀
I remember finding this by accident, I thought it was something I've broken in the game lol +I also really love the Skyline GT/S look with this color also! Good taste on the car
I remember coming by this glitch when I hit a traffic car unto the tracks after winning a race. After a few minutes, the traffic car drives off while on to the tracks lol
Yep! I recall this bug fondly. Do you know about this bug where if you hit special traffic vehicles that are scripted in races with agro (not sure if regular Agro works, i only did it while hyper agro is activated.) a certain way while they are stationed after running their scripted route they will begin to aimlessly drive around causing havoc? I randomly ran into that in one race in Atlanta just goofing around with special traffic cars.
not that i know of... its theoretically possible but given the game isnt a PC program it has to be done through the .iso file which pcsx2 runs. theres a guy out there who was making an overhaul mod for the game but he's not been active on youtube for 4-5 months now
Midnight 3 tem os gráficos lindos até mesmo hoje, e olha que já achei jogos antigos muito realistas do qual eu me decepciono hoje, porém o mid 3 até hoje nunca me tirou essa impressão. Essa versão é a de XBOX?
R33 GT-R for curious folk: ruclips.net/video/or5kFPZy09I/видео.htmlsi=PQwazvX4kNw4qAOU
Lol a fwd gtr
Also kinda looks like a gt-t with those tail lights
Died laughing when I saw the bus do that unnatural turn
it was like "aight imma head out 🗿"
Unnatural for an amateur
So this is the bus rapid transit that they talked about?
You gotta look the npc traffic from the first Midnight club 🤣
Of course, it's Rockstar Games. You see that sometimes in GTA too.😂

Midnight Club 3 DUB Edition Remix is the best racing game ever created by humans.
0:59 unstoppable force meets immovable object
I been playing this game for over 10 years and even on my channel and I never knew about this bug lmao. Thank you for this lol
yee haha, works with pretty much all traffic
@@almightypear What kind of GT-R is this? R33 with R34 nose swap?
its not a bug. Its the way the devs programmed the actors. Anyone who knows how a basic game software is codded, would never call this a "bug".

I like how there is a community for this game
That reverse 180 threw me off guard, I never did this with a bus before.
You hit him so hard, he earned a train license.
got sent to the aether dimension bro
I need someone to use that travis scott sound effect when the bus bro
I just can't stop fucking laughing
As a veteran Midnight Club player (yeah even though I've only finished it on mobile) I just discovered this bug
Man your R33 looking R34 looks amazing
tyyy!

This game was my childhood, I loved making all the cars and listening to the best songs when I'm racing 🔥
Midnight Club secrets videos, like with GTA games? Thanks RUclips algorithm!
got a few more you may like too
Looks like Michael Jackson is haunting that bus💀
I don’t know why the algorithms give me this in my recommendations but i’m glad this game was big part of my childhood and one of the biggest reasons i became a cars guy
same, and it defined my music taste too
this skyline looks like r33 skyline although in game is r34 skyline.
Dub edition remix 3 a legendary game among video game racers💪🤝🤔
Coming from someone who has only played MCLA, I wish i had gotten into 3, looks fun definitely has the gta vibe to it
it definitely has its arcade style element to it, chaotic but in a fun way
I'm sad that I never got to finish MC3 on my ps2 as a kid.
Bro for a moment i trought its the really the skyline r33 lmao.
Nah I was too busy doing the muscle car race over and over again cuz I kept on hitting that doggone train and oncoming traffic, lol
hahahah

I thought I never see this game again.
plenty of vids for u to enjoy :)

thank you! just made a vid on it
I knew about the cars, but that bus one blew my mind. Great catch!
Remember this bug? I don't even remember this game! 😂
brooo how can u forget midnight club!
used to do this all the time once i figured it out as a kid
always play with the NPCs!
So many years and I NEVER knew about this.
I remember coming by this glitch when I hit a traffic car unto the tracks after winning a race. After a few minutes, the traffic car drives off while on to the tracks lol
i only ever played this on psp i didn't know how much better it is on the play station 2
Thank you for the guiding this npc safely, god bless you 🙌
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Remember I found it out one day by mistake man I could listen to your car all night just driving around
This is R33.
Nooni ain't have that glitch. But man I wish I knew how much of a drag programming wz back then tho
Sitting Sidewayz.
R33 is such a vibe.
I really wanna play this game but the resolution on the OG Xbox is holding me back...
That's insane high graphics for a ps2 game 😳
upscaling on pcsx2
even the bugs in this game are fun -except the collision bugs-

@1:54 there was a Tacoma in the game?! Why can’t we have Tacomas in modern games that we have today
npc/traffic car
no but still i never saw a Tacoma as an NPC until i saw the video @@almightypear
Yup my grandpa did this when i was little
I remember the bug where my motorcyclist fell before the finish line and won, he became floating like Jesus Christ ascending 😂😂😂
Ah yes, the soul vibrates
As a kid i would always say "lets go buttface"
I was more tripped out that you can actually put R33 rear lights on the R34 ... Since i own an R33 that shit fucked with my mind.
haha
A traffic car do the same at 1:05 during the count down of Atlanta race on my gameplay.
And I thought the garage glitch was one the funniest to do.
cars
they are cute
they exist
wheelsoup type beat
now push the train to the road and see if it acts like a normal car
Really like the colour of your Skyline.
thank u :)
Been playing the game for years and never knew about this 😂
This was the first video I saw of yours! Sitting sideways
Yo.. as a kid... i never thought about doing that, that's so random.. lol
0:51 it's like a train meme
I don't remember the R33 being in this game
its the r34, just made a vid on it :)
Best racing game ever...
I remember this glitch from 5 years old

I didn't know this 🤣, I'm gonna try it on my PS2, Awesome!
