Bully (PlayStation 2)/Development Leftovers and Oversights

From The Cutting Room Floor
Jump to navigation Jump to search

This is a sub-page of Bully (PlayStation 2).

Hmmm...
To do:
Pretty long and diversified. Might be worth looking into organizing this differently.
  • The minimap is full of inconsistencies, so make a section for that.
  • Gord's default model's UV mapping is incorrect, resulting in his tie taking its texture from his pants.
  • Ivanovich's default model's UV mapping is incorrect, resulting in his badge not appearing properly.
  • Adding more technicality would be nice.

Mr. Galloway could have helped revising these...

Introduction video

The introduction was recorded using a slightly earlier version of the game.

  • (0:13) The streetlights on the left have a fake shadow.
  • (0:13) The bus bench is missing.
  • (0:17) The bus stop sign is white with red text.
  • (1:05) Gord can be seen wearing a sweater.

Loading Screen Art

The widescreen variation of the second splash art with Mr. Burton wasn't updated and still features a slightly earlier design of his shorts.

Yearbook

Bully Yearbook.gif

The Yearbook uses pictures from earlier character designs:

  • Bo and Kirby have the Bullworth crest instead of the shield.
  • Bucky wears a nerd sweater instead of a vest.
  • Chad wears an earring, which was present in his original design, and is still there in his Boxing model.
  • Dan's picture is of his earlier design, being unique instead of a clone of Kirby's model. He's also not posed like the other students.
  • Derby is misplaced between Dan and Davis as his original name was Darby, earlier in development. He also wears an ascot, part of his earlier design and his appearance during Complete Mayhem.
  • Gord and Tad are wearing sweaters instead of vests.
  • Gordon has a different sweater.
  • Jimmy is shown with an earlier model.
  • Karen's hair is different and notably darker.
  • Lance has a different sweater.
  • Mandy is using an earlier design.
  • Pete is shown using his nickname known as "Petey", for some reason.
  • Russell, Trent, Wade, and Tom wear sweaters over their shirts.
  • Tad and Gord are wearing sweaters instead of vests.
  • Zoe wears her casual outfit instead of her school uniform. It's possible that her school uniform wasn't designed yet.
  • Strangely, this also goes over to the Anniversary Edition, even though it was previously fixed on the Wii version.

Missions

Welcome to Bullworth

During the fight against Wade, if all moves are unlocked via cheating/modding, the player can perform a heavy uppercut instead of the overhead punch.

The developers forgot to apply a late change made to Jimmy's fighting style to the one used in this tutorial.

The Setup

In the intro cutscene, school ambiance noises can clearly be heard, a leftover from when the mission started inside the school.

Clips of the cutscene taking place inside the school can be seen in the game's first trailer.

Filename Audio
1-03

The Diary

In the intro cutscene, Beatrice has a unique model for which the developers forgot to make a winter variation of, in case the player plays the mission in Chapter III.

Halloween

Bully HalloweenCutsceneProps.png

In the intro cutscene, the game spawns the CS_PILLOW and CS_CHAIR models, with the latter never being in camera view.

Prep Challenge

The script makes Jimmy play an animation when he's checking the poster.
The animation group containing it, however, isn't loaded, resulting in Jimmy temporarily being in an A-pose.

The animation in question can be seen being used twice by Jimmy when talking to the nerds during Nerd Challenge.

As-is Intended
Bully PrepChallengeBeachHouseLowQuality.png

After beating the mission, the game attempts to spawn Jimmy on the beach, and then focuses the camera on the beach house.
However, that spawn point, 3_R09_BEACH, doesn't exist, so Jimmy will be teleported in front of the Boxing Gym.
Because of that, and due to how the game handles the loading of assets far from Jimmy, the beach house's model won't have some of its assets loaded.

This was later fixed on the Wii version of Scholarship Edition.

The Eggs

  • In the cutscene where Jimmy arrives at Tad's house with eggs, one of the characters in the prep trio is Parker, but is replaced with Gord in-game after the cutscene ends. This indicates one of the two was planned to replace the other in this role.
  • While fighting Justin, he says lines that are clearly not appropriate for the situation: making remarks about being fast. These quotes show that originally, instead of him fighting, the player was supposed to chase him around Tad's yard.
Filename Audio Transcript

You won't catch me, Hopkins!
Justin_2-03_013_v2
See ya!
Justin_2-03_013_v3
I'm too fast for you, Hopkins.
Justin_2-03_013_v4
Nice try, slowpoke!

Weed Killer

Any Tad ped will run faster than normal if this mission is active, as scripted in Prep_Walk.cat.
This is a leftover from a scrapped objective.

Dishonorable Fight

The ropes Jimmy uses during the mission's intro can be interacted with at all times and have multiple interaction points.
They, however, will only properly work during the mission, resulting in Jimmy A-posing in freeroam.

It's possible Jimmy was supposed to manually get out of the ring, earlier in development.

Cook's Date

Bully CooksDateMugs.png

Two mugs are supposed to spawn only when this mission is active.
However, they can only appear if the map is reloaded.

In normal circumstances, due to the mission's timer, they can only be seen if the player enters the nearby Aquaberry store and leaves.

Jealous Johnny

At the end of the intro cutscene, Johnny tells Jimmy to meet him in the New Coventry underpass, which might not seem weird at first... except they are already there!

This references the fact that the cutscene originally took place in the Auto Shop, and resulted in Johnny seeming kinda dumb due to the dialogue remaining unchanged.

Wrong Part of Town

Cornelius' dialogue mentions a pizza parlor that doesn't exist in the actual game. It was redesigned into a police station.

The Rumble

The mission's script spawns a few props that are no longer relevant:

  • The ones in the alleyway might have been meant for when chasing Peanut.
  • Despite one already being loaded all the time, a copy of a train carriage gets spawned in the same spot. Causing Z-fighting in motion.
Bully TheRumbleOutOfBoundsCop.png

Officer Williams is meant to be present in the scenario where Norton is being inspected by Officer Monson.
The script, however, disables his collision, so he falls off the map.

Additionally:

  • Just like Tad in Weed Killer, Peanut is programmed to run faster during this mission in Walk_Greasers.cat. Originally, he was going to escape on foot rather than on a bicycle.
  • Aside from Peanut, the greasers that the player fights in the alleyway at the end of the mission don't match the ones seen in the intro cutscene of Fighting Johnny Vincent: Lefty and Vance get replaced with Hal and Ricky.
    As shown by the unused dialogue, this was originally supposed to be consistent, and the conversation with Vance was meant to instead happen when searching for Peanut.

Funhouse Fun

When operating the reapers, Jimmy is teleported by the entrance of the cemetery, out of view, and the player is expected to watch the screen and press X at times.
The developers, however, forgot to disable Jimmy's controls, meaning the player can do whatever they want for the whole segment.

The Big Game

When Kirby gets the rigged ball, he is briefly in focus before the camera is moved further away.
This is to hide the fact that the animation he plays has him look at his left hand, while the ball gets attached to his right hand.

The animation in question was originally meant for Damon in the scrapped mission The Paddle and was recycled here.

Chapter IV Transition

During the cutscene, Jimmy is shown getting kissed on his left cheek by Mandy, but judging by her voice, she was clearly supposed to be Lola instead.

Busting In Part II

This mission's .DAT file spawns several items, but 8 of which are placed on unreachable buildings.

(Source: TheNathanNS)

The Wonder Meats slaughterhouse is not relevant during the mission, but if the player goes there, townies can be seen present: two stationary ones outside the front entrance and two roaming inside the building. When the player gets close to the building, Zoe will say a line that is more noticeable with subtitles on, as the voice clip can barely be heard due to her being programmed to stand still in areas far from there.

As shown by unused dialogue, there was going to be an objective where the player had to activate the switch inside this building, with the player having the option to be stealthy.

Showdown at the Plant

T_ElevatorControl

The mission's script has a thread running in the background at all times, allowing the player to interact with the elevator Edgar uses with the Triangle button.

It's possible the player was supposed to use it at some point, earlier in development.

(Source: deadpoolXYZ (Discovery), SimonBestia (Recording))

Complete Mayhem

Bully CompleteMayhemDumpster.png

The script spawns a dumpster in one of the walls of Blues Skies Shipping, a location that is never visited during the mission. Jimmy was supposed to climb on it to sneak to the Wonder Meats factory, earlier in development, but in the final game, this area leading to Wonder Meats is covered with a fence that doesn't allow access.

In the NIS after saving Russell, the script restores Jimmy's controls after he is done talking, for some reason, allowing the player to do whatever they want until the next part's script disables them again.

The collision set for the vandalized library differs from the normal one, being simpler.
As the walls lack collision past a certain height in this set, the player can jump out of bounds because of the ruined fences on the second floor.

Final Showdown

Hmmm...
To do:
Figure out why.

The mission's script spawns two Beam Colas, however, the game fails to do so.

Minigames

Art Class

Bully ArtClassBrush.png

The instructions for Art Class mention a power-up called Brush; it, however, is unused.

This mention was removed on the Wii and PC versions of Scholarship Edition.

(Source: EdgarPrastio)

Gym Class

During Wrestling lessons, holding L3 while moving and pressing Triangle will make Jimmy perform a running tackle, which will deal damage to Fatty if done in Gym 1.
The game can potentially softlock if the player lets Fatty disappear after being knocked out before the player is tasked with defeating him.

This is likely a leftover from an earlier control scheme for the wrestling fighting style.

Another leftover is a choke grapple that can only be performed if the player is crouching and is behind their opponent, which is normally impossible during the class.

Combining the previous oversight to get Fatty stuck by leaving the mat after knocking him out, with modding to make the game believe Jimmy is crouching, it's possible to perform it.

(Source: deadpoolXYZ (Discovery) SimonBestia (Recording))
Bully3HitComboTakedownUnlocked.png

One of the moves taught to the player in Gym 3 is the 3 Hit Combo Takedown, which wouldn't be odd... except the player already has this move since the beginning of the game.

It's possible that this combo got added to Jimmy's starting moveset late in development and after they had already programmed it to be taught here.

Go-Kart Races

Bully GoKartRaceFailText.png

When failing a Go-Kart race, the text is scripted to be displayed in yellow, rather than the usual red color that's used for mission failures.

Geometry

Objects

School Entrance Mold

Bully SchoolEntranceMold.png

One of the mold patches on the entrance's structures is misplaced.

This was fixed in Scholarship Edition.

Rocket in my Pocket Windows

The Rocket in my Pocket store in Bullworth Town has three destroyable windows.

This is a leftover of a scrapped objective in the mission Movie Tickets.

Old Bullworth Vale Lamps

Bully OldBullworthValeLamps.png

The lamps in one of the houses in Old Bullworth Vale are misplaced. Their model is mostly hiding inside its structure.

Russell's House Missing Geometry

Bully RussellHouseGeometry.png

The front side of Russell's house has a piece of geometry missing.

Bullworth Town Movie Teather doorways

Bully-BullworthTownCinemaDoorway.png

Behind the broken doors of the closed-down cinema in Bullworth Town, a doorway can be seen.

As seen in pre-release material, earlier in development the cinema was actually operational and the Movie Tickets mission originally took place there.

Bullworth Town Motel doorways

Bully InAndOutMotelDoorway.png

Behind the central door of the closed-down motel in Bullworth Town, a doorway can be seen.

It's possible it was operational earlier in development, like the cinema.

Spazz Industries Molds

Some of the molds on the Spazz Industries' building are misplaced.

Judging by how they're perfectly in line with the others, it's possible the building was different at some point.

Wonder Meats Factory Window

A texture for a window is placed inside the model of the factory. Its intended look can be seen in early renders.

Bully WonderMeatsOutOfBoundsWindow1.png

School Geometry

Behind one of the walls on the second floor of the school, there is a window that would go on top of a door. This matches with one of the pre-rendered images of the school. It's entirely black on PlayStation 2 due to a lack of lighting.

PS2 PC
Bully SchoolDoorLeftover.png BullySE SchoolDoorLeftover.png

Two Halloween decorations are misplaced.

Two Christmas decorations are misplaced.

Bully SchoolOutOfBoundsFood.png

There is an out of bounds food texture behind the kitchen in the cafeteria.

Gym Geometry

Bully GymDoorsReflection.png

The doors for the reflection under the floor use the older brown design instead of the blue one.

Tenements Geometry

Bully TenementsOutOfBoundsWall.png

In the balcony area, there is a texture placed behind one of the walls.

Texture Leftovers

Texture areas that aren't mapped to anything due to design changes.

Texture Notes
Bully JK Dan01.png Dan's JK_Dan01 texture contains a part of a shirt under his left eye meant for his earlier design.
Bully CS PR2nd Bif 01.png Bif's CS_PR2nd_Bif_01 texture contains a watch strap at the bottom-left corner and the watch itself next to it meant for his earlier design.
Bully PRlead Darby 01.png Derby's PRlead_Darby_01 texture contains a red scarf at the bottom-left corner meant for his earlier design.
DOlead Russell 01.png Russell's DOlead_Russell_01 texture contains a tie at the upper-left corner meant for his earlier design.
Bully TO Fireman01.png O'Rourke's TO_Fireman01 texture contains a cigarette at the upper-left corner meant for his earlier design.

Pre-rendered Screens

Hmmm...
To do:
  • Add comparison screenshots where they're missing or remove them if they have no differences.
  • The texture on the window leading to the girls' dorm attic has some differences, locate the texture and compare it here.

Behind the doors that transition to another area of the game, there are low-resolution textures showing a picture of where the player is going.
A lot of them show differences from the time these were taken.
Note that the textures have been enlarged here for better visibility.

Lawnmower UV mapping

Aside from the change in aesthetics, a pre-release screenshot shows the lawnmower having its textures properly mapped, but in the final game, they are not.

This was fixed on the Xbox 360 and PC versions of Scholarship Edition.

Saw Mill Smoke Particle

Bully SawMillSmoke.png

There is some smoke coming out of nowhere in the sky on top of a small island near Blue Skies.

This is one of the very few leftovers of the scrapped saw will.

Paint Supply Smoke Particle

Bully BlueSkiesSmoke.png

A shadow is on the ground in Old Bullworth Vale, nothing is on top of it, though.

Floating Light Beam

Bully FloatingLightBeam.png

There is a light beam in Old Bullworth Vale that can be seen at night not attached to any street lamp.

Since light beams automatically spawn on a street lamp in the final game, it is possible the developers had to spawn light beams manually earlier in development, and they just forgot to remove this one.

Old Bullworth Vale Floating Lights

Some of the house models have lights but no lamps for them.

Carnival Floating Lights

Bully CarnivalFloatingLights.png

There are 4 lights coming from nowhere in front of the entrance at the carnival.

Come Hither Incomplete Neon

Bully ComeHitherNeon.png

This is a leftover from an early design that can be seen in one of the pre-rendered images.

School Lights

There is a third set of beam light textures behind the front wall.

Two lights have their effect misplaced.

Four lights are missing theirs entirely.

Bully OutOfBoundsSchoolLight.png

Boys' Dorm Second Floor Bathroom Mirror

There's a normally-unseen mirror reflection above the left side of the lounge. This was part of the second floor's bathroom, as shown by its position on the minimap.

It can be seen in pre-release screenshots.

There are four lights behind the Yum Yum Market's interior.

Out of bounds Girls' Dorm Effects

The attic is full of beam light textures behind the walls for windows that don't exist.

Collision

Island Collision

Right underneath the bridge which connects Blue Skies with the terrain leading to the academy, there is some misplaced collision.

It could potentially be an unintended leftover of the wood logs' collision blocking the way to the island near Blue Skies until Chapter IV is beaten.

Buildings' Rooftop Collision

The unreachable buildings on which some items spawn during Busting In Part II. These rooftops have parts with missing railings, possibly from where townies would throw stuff at the player during the mission.

Wonder Meats

There is collision on top of the Wonder Meats building. It's pretty basic and doesn't seem to match the shape of the actual building.

Spazz Industries

There is collision all over the upper area of the Spazz Industries factory in Blue Skies, but the player can't explore it due to a big metal fence blocking the way. Not everything has collision though, this includes the big bridge that leads to a mechanical door that can otherwise never be interacted with.

As shown by other leftovers, in Revenge on Mr. Burton, the player was originally meant to obtain bolt cutters from here, but they were moved to the hardware store in Bullworth Town.

Chemical Plant Early Entrance

The original entrance for the chemical plant can still be seen, but is impossible to reach without modding.

The walls and the fence don't have collision.

Principal's Office

There is collision for a tiny room on the left side of the office.

Harrington House

There is a big chunk of collision behind the closed doors on the first floor of Harrington House.

The interior's .DAT file suggests it was a lounge area, as the blocked doors are called Door_PrepHouse_Lounge and Door_PrepHouse_Lounge_02.

Transitions

Boys' Dorm

Similar to the girls' dorm, the left side of the boys' dorm has transition points, both outside and inside, but they are normally unreachable.

If Jimmy enters from the outside, he will fall out of bounds. It originally led to where the second floor's bathroom used to be.

Asylum

Bully AsylumSideDoor.png

The infamous door at the side of the Asylum is locked from the inside, meaning it is impossible to leave the area and players will be stuck.

If unlocked via modding, Jimmy will try to interact with the door, but as it lacks a transition point, it results in a softlock.

Dialogue

Plot inconsistency

Various peds' Chapter II gossip lines mention how Edna fell in love with Dr. Slawter, while the actual plot has her fall in love with Dr. Watts.

All of the bullies, except Tom, have some quotes recorded by different actors. Most notably, Trent seems to have been voiced by Otto's actor at one point.

In Last Minute Shopping, Mr. Oh speaks with a different, oriental voice and accent.
The same voice is heard in his unused Oh_HELPEX_v2 quote.

Those takes were likely by a previous actor, and many older takes of them were brought back by mistake in Scholarship Edition.

Sound Effects

Police Station's Pizza Parlor Ambiance Sound

As mentioned previously, the New Coventry police station is a redesigned pizza parlor, but an ambiance sound can be heard emitting from it (PizzaParlourMx), still reflecting what it used to be.

Library's Tunnels

Some ambiance sound effects can be heard when inside the Library_Tunnels trigger behind the bookshelf which led to a scrapped part of the library.

Staff Room's Pendulum Clock

A pendulum clock can be heard while inside the Staff Room, but it's nowhere to be seen.

Boxing Club's Coffee Machine

A coffee machine can be heard in the lounge on the second floor of the Boxing Club, but it's nowhere to be seen.

A model of it (DPI_Coffee), exists but is unused.

Peds

Algie Misplaced 1_05 Quotes
On top of his CHATTER set of quotes, used while peds walk around, Algie might say the following set of lines. Their internal filenames show they were supposed to be used only in the mission Save Algie (where they are also subtitled when said there).
While they don't sound completely out of place, they weren't really meant to be used here.

Bryce Misplaced 2_08 Quotes

While fighting Bryce, he might say some lines that were meant for the mission Weed Killer.
These two quotes are part of a set labeled 2-08_052, which would otherwise be unused along with other sets in the sequence, as they're not used in the mission.

Mute Peds

Juri, Bo, and Justin don't have a voice assigned to their alternate gym uniform models.

The same applies to Damon, though he can't normally be seen in freeroam.

Wrong Shooting Range Attendant

Hmmm...
To do:
Find the logic behind this, as peds can't have whoever's voice assigned. Perhaps it classifies better as an oddity. The devs did this deliberately.

The carnival worker running the Shooting Range booth is supposed to be the midget Brandy, as the voice clips heard when standing in front of the booth are hers. The ped's model, however, is Crystal.

Greasers' Roundhouse Counterhit Followup Animation Swap

The animations for this move are mistakenly swapped.
While styles using this attack properly assign the _GV animation to the giver and the _RCV animation to the receiver, G_STRIKER/GRAB_KNEE_2_GV actually portrays the receiver, and vice versa, G_STRIKER/GRAB_KNEE_2_RCV actually portrays the giver.

As-is Intended

Items

Skateboard Pickup Behaviour

The skateboard can't normally be seen as a pickup, but when spawned as one via modding, it behaves differently from other pickups: it rotates instead of just standing still and sparkling.
This is because it's the only weapon in Global_Weapons.cat to have "Spinning" set to true.

This behavior is likely a leftover from Grand Theft Auto: Vice City.

Out of bounds Items

In the front of the building next to the church in the cemetery.
One of the bricks is placed just enough to be able to be seen, while the other is unreachable.

Behind the building next to the bus stop near the tenements in New Coventry.

Behind the hospital in New Coventry.

POIs

Bully BrokenPOI.png

The bench in front of the Pool building is shorter than the one near the Gym building to accommodate a climbable ladder.
Despite this, a ped may sometimes try to sit next to it but will fail to do so and just stand for a couple of seconds before leaving.

The bench was longer earlier in development, and after adding the ladder and shortening the bench, this POI was broken.

Inside the elevated platform on the back of the academy's main building, there is a tiny spot with collision inside of it, where a Smoking POI takes place.
The bully will likely fall off the map after being done.
As shown by an early render, the elevated platform didn't exist earlier in the development, so this might date back to that.

At the movie theatre in Old Bullworth Vale, there's a kissing POI where one of the peds is spawned inside the building and therefore can't quite make contact with the other.

Under the Carnival sign in Old Bullworth Vale, there's a Spectator POI out of bounds and behind the sign itself.
The ped will be stuck there.

At the docks in Blue Skies, there's a Smoking POI taking place in an area the player can't normally see.
The townie will take a few steps only to then fall off the map.

Miscellaneous

Broken Mirror Idling

Standing in front of a mirror will cause Jimmy to stop doing his occasional idle animations.
Pressing R1 or Triangle after a few seconds results in Jimmy playing an animation for a few frames before stopping.

The intended outcome was for Jimmy's idle animations to be replaced by others that can be seen done by peds when in the bathrooms.
Why this doesn't work as intended is unknown.

Bulletin Board variations

All the boards are unique and scripted to swap their model after certain missions have been beaten. This behavior is almost impossible to notice as most of the models, with the exception of two (one being unused), share the same texture, making this feature pointless.

From the start of the game until The Candidate, the Bulletin Board near the entrance of the boys' dorm uses a unique texture with a blank page, after which it switches to another texture with no page. This is the only time the player can notice a change in texture, despite the frequent model changes throughout the story.

The Bulletin Board near the boys' dorm entrance is scripted to change after the following missions:

  • The Candidate
  • Panty Raid
  • Fighting Johnny Vincent
  • Preppies Vandalized
  • Final Showdown

The Bulletin Board in the boys' dorm recreation room is scripted to change after the following missions:

  • Slingshot
  • Russell In the Hole
  • Dishonorable Fight
  • Fighting Johnny Vincent
  • Nerd Boss Fight
  • Preppies Vandalized

The Bulletin Board in the school's lobby is scripted to change after the following missions:

  • The Candidate
  • Tad's House
  • Fighting Johnny Vincent
  • Making a Mark
  • Final Showdown

The Bulletin Board in the school, next to the English classroom is scripted to change after the following missions:

  • The Diary
  • Russell In the Hole
  • Weed Killer
  • The scrapped mission "The Paddle"
  • Final Showdown

The Bulletin Board on the school's second floor in front of the girls' bathroom is scripted to change after the following missions:

  • The Diary
  • Russell In the Hole
  • Weed Killer
  • Dishonorable Fight
  • Nerd Boss Fight
  • Preppies Vandalized
  • Final Showdown

Old Bullworth Vale Bus

The bus that comes to pick the player up at the bus stop in Old Bullworth Vale near the Aquaberry store is diagonally tilted, even though the road is flat.

This might suggest a possible layout change in the map.

Interaction Spots

PAn_Main.DAT

Hmmm...
To do:
Add the others, preferably as screenshots instead of external videos (and replace this one), as they don't do anything, anyways.

This spawns 7 pxTarget, an interactable that doesn't do anything, around the map.
All but one can't normally be reached as they're at a slightly higher level than the ground.

Unknown

Observatory Door

The Observatory door is interactable. It won't show any prompt text, though.

This is likely an unintended side effect of how it can be manipulated either by scripts (like in Defender of the Castle) or using firecrackers to destroy it.

Clint's Garage

Exactly like the former.

This one's probably due to how the garage was meant to be manipulated by the game in the scrapped The Collector mission.

Junkyard Crane

There is an unknown interaction spot where the crane's control area is located.

Inconsistent Names

Derby or Darby?

Derby Harrington is internally referred to as Darby and is called like that by all characters (except by Chad in Complete Mayhem), despite the game's text always referring to him as Derby.
As already mentioned, his name was originally Darby and his position in the yearbook still reflects this.

Clint or Henry?

When hired as a bodyguard, Clint's name shows up as Henry. In the credits, he's named "Clint (AKA Henry)". Internally, he is mostly referred to as Clint but still has few mentions with Henry.
It's possible the developers couldn't settle on a name for him until very late into development and didn't have enough time to change all his mentions.

Townies or Dropouts?

The Townies were originally known as "Dropouts" and are internally called that.
Despite the name change, however, they are referred to with both terms throughout the game. For example, they are referred to as "Dropouts" in Finding Johnny Vincent and Busting In Part I.
