big bear didn't become fat after rehab, he's called BIG bear for a reason, he was fat like BIG smoke, he became really skinny once he started doing crack...
@My dick is insanely small, but Maybe Big Bear used to have his own missions, where in one mission, he said he wanted to gain pounds to be the OG Big Bear. Just maybe.
damn, if they really cut his mission near the end, at least they could add him at the final scene where everyone meets on CJ house showing that he now is rehabilited and ready to be part of CJ team for the GSF, that would have been cool
That's maybe why they changed it, the time would have been too short for rehab. If the finale was longer, then maybe they might have kept him as enough time could have passed? I dunno, just guessing. But they did kinda just...leave it messy and unfinished. They should have just cut him entirely as his story doesn't really resolve, not fully. Either that, or figure out another way to have finished his role more substantially, I'd have liked to have seen more of him. The whole ending of the game seemed rather rushed and forgotten. If the Venturas section was cut, or shortened then maybe they could have found better ways to resolve such story arcs by making the finale longer and less tacked on while shortening the dragging and rather unrelated Venturas stuff.
@@Xegethra they could've had u put bear in rehab earlier before sweet got put in prison so the time u come back to Los Santos to save the hood,bear could've came out of rehab ready to do missions with you now that Ryder was dead.
It totally sucks that they left out such an important character. If it wasnt that important why would CJ and Ryder go to Big Bear first? And why is CJ so sad after seeing how Big Bear is looking after "the diet" of coke? If it wasnt so important he could have said something like: "Well... That sucks." **and goes to the next GSF ex-member** . Is there any mod to bring back the full mission? And will somebody make a full mod that will totally change the way the storyline goes.
+Little Weasel yeah, and I've always felt that the main group of grove street people (being Sweet, Cj, Ryder, and big smoke) was too little of pivotal people. they should've added more detailed characters.
Big Bear sounds like the only sane member of the OG Posse even after smoking a lot of Crack. Big Smoke is autistically too deep, Sweet was exaggeratingly always Mad, Ryder was a fuckboy from the start, CJ is a goddamn psycho managing to be normal after having a shootout with Aliens wearing suits, Riding a fucking Jetpack, helping a Blind mafia Boss kill his competition, and being Castrated by Catalina . Jesus
Cutscene from "end of the line" CJ : hey smoke Big Smoke : hey cj i just wandering you showed up CJ : how do you know it was me So that means that Russian tell Big Smoke CJ and Sweet are coming
big bear was definitely fat before CJ left LS, hence his name 'big bear'. when you hear a name like that what do you think of? a big mean dude on the block, which was what he was before he got all cracked up and skinny which is why CJ was so surprised to see him in the state he was in that mission where we first see him with b dup. as for the other skin with the hoodie, i reckon it doesnt have to do much with how big bear progresses but is just there as a beta skin for him. and the theory about CJ taking big bear to rehab is definitely true as the script fits perfectly with how the story was going. and as for the big bear lines about him being back, i believe there was another mission after you take bear to rehab where CJ sweet and bear go to take over some territory to get GSF reputation back and when you eventually take over enough territory (sort of like that mission where CJ and sweet first come back to grove street and take it over again) it leads you to the mission where you are looking for clues on how to finally find smoke which is why the conversation about the russian cat is there, then you find the russian and beat him up to find out where smoke is as the script suggests, then you finally get the 'end of the line' mission. in my opinion this wouldve been a much better finish to the game as througout the whole game we only see big bear about twice? once at the very beginning and then again at the very end and then he just disappears again so it was kind of pointless him even being there. also, you can tell that there was a lot missing to the ending because after all of this time looking for smoke, sweet randomly calls you and finds out where he is after you take over some territories by yourself, which is kind of a weak finish compared to these missions with big bear that were cut.

The fat model was never intended to be used in the game, not even in the beta. But if you have a bit of logic in your head you can easily find out when the model should be used: - His name is BIG Bear and he got that name before CJ left, hints at the fact, that he was fat once - The fact, what Crack can do to you. It can make you skinny as hell. - The line "Have you looked at yourself in the mirror lately" and the answer "Best diet I have ever been on". This states that he lost a lot of weight over the years when CJ was gone, if you put two and two together, you're gonna find out that Big Bear was fat before CJ left :D
I don't know what to say man the amount of work you put into your videos editing and quality its really amazing! You prefer quality over quantity and i love it please don't stop making these.
Do a video about GTA San Andreas Beta map, there are a few beta maps inside GTA SA, most known is the Toreno house's and Lil' probe inn' map and the beta San Fierro map in the driving school.
I like to think he was was gonna be available as a bodyguard after End of the line. Like, he would just hang out at Grove Street until CJ recruited him. That would explain why so many of his unused lines is him dissin’ various gangs and groups. Him just following you around to take over territories for the second to last mission sounds like a bit of a long shot. It would have been cool to see him in the final cutscene because in the moments he was mentioned he sounded like a person just as important as Sweet or CJ
i can feel that Big Bear was actually one of the more "specific" and "unique" characters hanging out near CJ's house at Grove Street with other same faced gang members and you can roll with him if you recruit him after rehab (including the missions Big Bear was in that got scrapped). its all guess but maybe he was the one rolling with you taking territories back missions before the Last mission : End of The Line but Rockstar made it more focused on CJ and Sweet's relationship as brothers. i can guess that because Big Bear was having voice over on the Varrios Los Aztecas maybe there was one mission with a flashback giving the player the perspective and control of Big Bear during his younger years (the green hoodied model) gattling down Aztecas as a tutorial to taking of Territories(Hoods) in El Corona or Unity Station (Aztecas hood) but was later scrapped for CJ's mission in Doberman. Funnily enough. Doberman was also a different mission originally(Carl has to stop Poncho from being arrested, kill Officer Carver and grab "evidence" before the cops collect it.). Doberman's first name was "All Terrain Takedown"
and because there was no Doberman during those Development (it was a different mission) it supports the idea that there IS a mission similar to Doberman with you taking over a territory to trigger Hood Wars. Big Bear is the only one with a unique voice line featuring Aztecas and Big Bear is weirdly always connected to taking territories....
Doberman was about cj killing A drug dealer for Tenpenny who Could have testified against him Cj had to stop him from being Arrested and collect drug bags
I think the end of the game was rushed. It makes sense to have a big mission were you have to take back the rest of Glen Park , the rest of Idlewood, Willow Field, East Los Santos, and East Beach. I wish you didn't have to kill Ryder just because they didn't know what to do with him. It makes sense that you have CJ, Sweet, Big Bear, & Ryder for this mission for a big Grove Street come back.
Jacob Tuell Ryder is a bitch and never cared for Grove Street. It wouldn't make sense for him to come back. Big Smoke did care, but the whole fame and money shit got to him.
I would love to see Big Bear as a backup gangster, but I think they scrapped the idea because of one reason: He would multiply like others. Or they should have gave him a house in Grove Street and when the player comes to pick him up, he would automatically become a hired gangster.
Man, san andreas has one of the best storylines i ever read.Stills the Rockstar masterpiece. i dont know why the fuck they annul san andreas stories...
I think the game was later made in a rush to meet deadlines and not delay the release date. There wasn't enough time to do all the things they wanted to do, so Rockstar took an alternate way when creating the final missions
he was fat and a gangsta before grove went down and cj left when cj left and grove went down he started doing crack crack fucked him up so he got skinny
@@easkateman yea fat people probably would've started doing drugs if they saw his model go from fat to skinny especially young fat kids,they should've just had him fat the entire game because crack only makes u skinny because you stop eating and is out and about doing anything to get that blast (coke hit) which takes alot of energy and calories while u out thier chasing the drugs.
I think that the whole Doberman in the beta, that it supposed to guide you on how to gain a territory. All Terrain Takedown was simply have to take over 15% of East Los Santos and also looking for Big Smoke. I'm not saying that it's true, although this is my OPINION!
By the way I've found out the meaning behind some of Big Bear's gameplay lines: 1) The first ones in the video are appearantly taunts against enemy gangs. This might be a beta feature that had to do with various characters. For instance, Cesar and Sweet have those lines too. 2) The "Bear is back on the Grove" is actually an idle line. Most storyline characters have those in their gameplay lines. Smoke has for example "I wanna be a leader of me", Cesar has "I wanna build Kendl a low-rider" and Ryder has "One day I'm gonna smoke that Pulaski fool" and so on. If you make Big Bear spawn as a ped he will say those lines when walking around (and so will the other aforementioned characters). 3) The "getting to rehab" thing is when he is getting car-jacked. Same thing here, most storyline characters have these lines. They're based on each character's personality so since Bear is a crackhead he will say stuff like this. Like in 2), if you jack his ride when you see him on the street he will say lines like this. 4) This one is a mystery tbh. Possibly some kind of beta leftover like in 1). I'm 100% certain about the other lines though.
I think in the beta the fat Big Bear were a flashback cutescene and during the mission where we see big bear he would actually join us(probably forced by sweet, which I think started a fight with B-dup and won with CJ's help) in Grove but he was still in rehab during what I think was from when he was supposed to came back to when OG Loc made a party but the ballas attacked grove street, maybe he was the one to tell everyone the ballas were coming instead of a random gang member
***** I know, at 7:05 you say after he returned from rehab he started to roll with sweet and cj that is why he gained weight where as the line said about his diet before his rehab would suggest he was fat before and lost it due to crack
Arcklez Well, I slightly misunderstood your point, sorry. From the very beginning I thought the same way. For instance, Bear was fat before the game, then he became slim due to the crack and finally, he gained this weight back after or while his rehab. I removed this thought, because he became junky a long time ago, so there is no way to show this model in the beginning of the game. Who knows.
***** True, but also in the mission "Cleaning the Hood" When CJ sees Big bear he says "Big Bear is that you?" almost as if CJ can hardly recognize him. That also might indicate that way back before CJ left San Andreas Big bear was fat. Unless Im misinterpreting that line.
Big Bear has that name for a reason like Big Smoke he was wide. Most likely his fat model was going to be used for the Introduction video but for some reason they cut it out. Like how his dialogue said after Brian died and CJ left for Liberty City. Sweet became hard to deal with, a bad leader. They started to lose their dominance in the city and when Seville Boulevard and Temple Drive Families split from the Grove. It made everything worse over the years CJ was gone. Unlike how Sweet nearly gave up and started to give in to the drugs at the end; Big Bear actually did and became very addicted to it. That's probably what the three Ballas at the Introduction video meant when they said "Even OGs want a slice of this" and "This shit right here changes everybody" All of that continuous smoking made him lose all of that weight and that's why he's like that. But he was still addicted to it and spent all of his money and probably lost his house. Around that time B-Dup must have started going in the crack game for himself and he decided to live with him and being able to smoke all the crack he wants in exchange for house service. That's probably when Big Smoke started to betray the Grove for his own purposes and decided to have Ryder join him to help C.R.A.S.H. That's what they were talking about the opportunity. Make it seem like they had no choice and still make a quick buck. Then shortly after his Crack Fortress started up he kept it hush hush so no one would know what he was doing that's probably how and why he got his own place out of the Grove. Be suspicious living there and Sweet see Tenpenny and Pulaski there all the time bugging him to do their dirty work. Only reason Ryder probably didn't move out was to be a mole for Smoke whenever he was handling his Crack Fortress or C.R.A.S.H. business.
A random thought at Big Bear having both thin and fat models. His voice actor was massively overweight until 2003 when he underwent surgery to remove 250 pounds. Since his character also has two different models for vastly different physiques it could somehow have something to do with that.
I think there is fat big bear becuese he was costumisable like CJ. And there was supposed after the mission the player being bear and CJ just like in GTA 5.
Maybe it would've been possible to find Big Bear on the streets after his rehab, hence his lines talking like the 3 fams after they're acquired. We can only think the beta version would've been more fun and diverse. There are so many different things just by looking through the leftovers of the things scrapped. Big Bear, Tony, Little Devil, Big Devil, Brian, LB, Little Weasel's betrayal, Ryder's shady death and so on. It just feels like the final version of the game is a couple of puzzle pieces put together from the actual idea.
I think that grove street had huuuuuuge number of skins even with secret Big Bear character (csbigbear2) and because of PS2 limits Rockstars had to just leave 3 simple skins for every gang what a shame
What i actually think is that Big Bear should be fat in the mission called "Cleaning the hood". Cuz nobody said he looked different. So he used to be fat. On the mission called "Beat down on B Dup" CJ mention he changed and Big Bear said : "The best diet i ever had". The timeline between these missions is kinda long. So he had his "diet" and lost his weight between these missions. But still this doesnt answer the question why rocksater didnt used the fat Big Bear model. İts just my opinion why there is a fat model of Big Bear. @Vadim M
Vladim M, keep up the good work man. I love the work you put in to find out stuff about GTA SA (my favorite game of all time.) I just wanted you to know that I love the stuff you do, and please keep up this GTA Beta stuff! We love it!
I'd love to see big bear making a cameo in another gta game kinda like packie or something.A lot of his story wasn't even used in the game.It's a shame since he looks like a cool and unique character...
This would take up alot of time, but could you make a modded mission where you can re-create those 'beta' missions by all the data you've uncovered? Like the beta 'Beat Down on B Dup' mostly featured in this episode. Obviously some beta missions where re-coverable but most arn't. Please reply and see if you or someone else could. It'd be a great mod!
What should have happened was after Big Bear was taken to rehab and went back to Grove Street, an actual two player mode should have been unlocked and Big Bear could be treated like CJ. Or maybe Big Bear should have had missions that helped you conquer all the territories. Think about it, two four door/seat cars, each driven by Bear or CJ, and in total there would be 8 Grove Street Family Members taking over Los Santos. Why do GSF members always compliment CJ's shoes?
Great video, learned a lot with it but the song was too repetitive. Could you next time use the gta sa or another song please? But again, congratulations! You make a great content!
If you watch the 2nd trailer for GTA San you see near the beginning a quick clip of big bear punching the guy that cj and Ryder confront trying to see big bear, which means it's true, cuz after he punched the guy who was telling him what to do he prob went with Ryder and cj. Which also means he must've came later in the making of San sense he was shown in the 2nd trailer and not the first
I think that the fat one was the old bear before becoming a crack addict, and the gsf one was after the rehab, ready to roll with grove (also regained weight but not as before). I‘m sure it‘s not right but it‘s coherent.
It would be cool to sometimes bump into bear if a territory is being invaded, or the grove suddenly invades another gangs territory. like: "Ey CJ I was just driving to the burgershot then these balla fools started blasting, guess we have to take the whole neighborhood now huh?" And he would have a signature wepon, like sweet and his AK, Smoke and tenpenny with the Spaz, and bear could have a desert eagle???
I think big bear was supposed to have mission too. I.e like Ryder or Big Smoke or Sweet. Though it's strange on how he was supposed to played a bigger role in the beta but in final game he's just that, forgotten character not even anyone remember him..
I think the reason Big Bear was helping you in the cut-out mission is because CJ and Sweet helped him out on the "Beat Down on B Dup" ,i think he's trying to return the favor, plus he's a GSF member so... The name Big Bear I think because he was like Big smoke , fat, so that's why they call him big. Maybe the fat model was planned to be used to the prologue/introduction so we can know more about him. the other model could be the beta version of bear, and later was changed... The game could be real masterpiece, they cut A LOT of it maybe because the mission was long/difficult or too long or maybe can't fit in one disc...
my tin foil hat conspiracy theory on all this is that at the beginning of GTA sa they wanted to set up a prequel and the player could play cj before he left for liberty and it revolved around the death of cjs brother Brian since it happens to be a prominent thing that many characters reference to and how smoke says cj used to be buffer before and big bear fat model, but the whole prequel thing was scrapped very early on
Big bear probabily help CJ to get all the gang territorys back after rehab like a side mission who you go to bears house or bears call to you and you choose "yes" or "no"... of course this is a theory
It just hit me If there were mission packs And what one of the gta creators said thatThe multi character idea from gta 5 was Going to be on san andres , by my guessing Some of cjs missions would be played thru By ceaser and I guess by 1987 you could play as big bear .
Man that fat GSF model looks so cool, I'd like to imagine fat Big Bear with those clothes, it would be like 3 GSF members in one with a lot of health. Big Smoke would be in real trouble if Big Bear teamed up with CJ like that in the final mission
b dup: all big bear care about is smokin dope and keepin my house clean big bear: HELLLL YEAA b dup: hell yeah what! big bear: HELL YEAH SIR! b dup: no go make that muthafuckinn toilet sparkle! big bear: everyone like to party cj ill see you around
Well if you take his models by logic : When he was first rolling with the Grove he was like Big Smoke - a fat and chubby... Then he split with the grove and became a drug addict - wich made his lose his weight and become a slave... Then he joined Rehab and after he joined back with the grove.
At min. 4:22 , if you played the beta i bet you sure know that guy is Ryder. Grand Theft Auto San Andreas Beta Mod Trailer ( Skip to min 2:46 ) Sorry for my English
Well i know i am late. But according to quote lines, i think firstly when big bear became a slav for b dup he used to be fat. But after bbeat down on b dup, cj questions him how thin big bear is. So according to me, before cj escaped ls big bear used to be fat, but after leaving gsf he got low on food and became thin. I still aint got any idea on his gang skin

i can feel that Big Bear was actually one of the more "specific" and "unique" characters hanging out near CJ's house at Grove Street with other same faced gang members and you can roll with him if you recruit him after rehab (including the missions Big Bear was in that got scrapped). its all guess but maybe he was the one rolling with you taking territories back missions before the Last mission : End of The Line but Rockstar made it more focused on CJ and Sweet's relationship as brothers.
i can guess that because Big Bear was having voice over on the Varrios Los Aztecas maybe there was one mission with a flashback giving the player the perspective and control of Big Bear during his younger years (the green hoodied model) gattling down Aztecas as a tutorial to taking of Territories(Hoods) in El Corona or Unity Station (Aztecas hood) but was later scrapped for CJ's mission in Doberman. Funnily enough. Doberman was also a different mission originally(Carl has to stop Poncho from being arrested, kill Officer Carver and grab "evidence" before the cops collect it.). Doberman's first name was "All Terrain Takedown"
EDIT: oh shit im connecting dots here with the All Terrain Takedown . Big Bear was included in that mission!?
and because there was no Doberman during those Development (it was a different mission) it supports the idea that there IS a mission similar to Doberman with you taking over a territory to trigger Hood Wars. Big Bear is the only one with a unique voice line featuring Aztecas and Big Bear is weirdly always connected to taking territories....
Doberman was about cj killing
A drug dealer for Tenpenny who
Could have testified against him
Cj had to stop him from being
Arrested and collect drug bags
I can't stop watching your videos, you rock man!
I think the end of the game was rushed. It makes sense to have a big mission were you have to take back the rest of Glen Park , the rest of Idlewood, Willow Field, East Los Santos, and East Beach. I wish you didn't have to kill Ryder just because they didn't know what to do with him. It makes sense that you have CJ, Sweet, Big Bear, & Ryder for this mission for a big Grove Street come back.
Jacob Tuell Ryder is a bitch and never cared for Grove Street. It wouldn't make sense for him to come back. Big Smoke did care, but the whole fame and money shit got to him.
Great analysis! Also that "diet" quote is very good proof :) I'll try to search for some more info. Damn the cut missions were so cool!
One of the most underrated characters in gta sa
I would love to see Big Bear as a backup gangster, but I think they scrapped the idea because of one reason: He would multiply like others.
Or they should have gave him a house in Grove Street and when the player comes to pick him up, he would automatically become a hired gangster.
Man I just wish we saw more of Big Bear and this OG that CJ and Ryder said he was
4:10 CJ says that the OG posse is on the bounce. Possibly a reference to orange grove families(OGF)
Og could stand for original Gangsta
Got an idea 'bout those : ,,Ballas u suck, etc...'' quotes. Even homies says that, if they're attacking Ballas, Vagos or Varriors. Not just gang wars.
Grove Street’s dialogue against the Aztecas impressed me a lot
GET BACK TO YOUR FILTHY VARRIO
Man, san andreas has one of the best storylines i ever read.Stills the Rockstar masterpiece. i dont know why the fuck they annul san andreas stories...
I think the game was later made in a rush to meet deadlines and not delay the release date. There wasn't enough time to do all the things they wanted to do, so Rockstar took an alternate way when creating the final missions
Keep this up! I am always interested in these kind of things.
Your theory is false simply due to the line "best diet I've ever had"
i think its true because he was fat
crack comes and no fat
no more crack se he was regaining some weighr
+Zackary Foster u right
ayoody 3yeq
I dont think so
Explain it more
he was fat and a gangsta before grove went down and cj left when cj left and grove went down he started doing crack crack fucked him up so he got skinny
@@easkateman yea fat people probably would've started doing drugs if they saw his model go from fat to skinny especially young fat kids,they should've just had him fat the entire game because crack only makes u skinny because you stop eating and is out and about doing anything to get that blast (coke hit) which takes alot of energy and calories while u out thier chasing the drugs.
Oh shit, Big Bear was voiced by the same dude that voiced Lamar Davis? Never noticed that
Kurt Alexander is Big Bear Lamar davis is voiced by Gerald "Slick" Johnson
The guy who voiced Big Bear is radio host named Kurt Alexander also known as Big Boy
I think that the whole Doberman in the beta, that it supposed to guide you on how to gain a territory. All Terrain Takedown was simply have to take over 15% of East Los Santos and also looking for Big Smoke. I'm not saying that it's true, although this is my OPINION!
Thanks for doing this man, I've always wondered about those two models and why Big Bear didn't have a bigger place on the story.
By the way I've found out the meaning behind some of Big Bear's gameplay lines: 1) The first ones in the video are appearantly taunts against enemy gangs. This might be a beta feature that had to do with various characters. For instance, Cesar and Sweet have those lines too. 2) The "Bear is back on the Grove" is actually an idle line. Most storyline characters have those in their gameplay lines. Smoke has for example "I wanna be a leader of me", Cesar has "I wanna build Kendl a low-rider" and Ryder has "One day I'm gonna smoke that Pulaski fool" and so on. If you make Big Bear spawn as a ped he will say those lines when walking around (and so will the other aforementioned characters). 3) The "getting to rehab" thing is when he is getting car-jacked. Same thing here, most storyline characters have these lines. They're based on each character's personality so since Bear is a crackhead he will say stuff like this. Like in 2), if you jack his ride when you see him on the street he will say lines like this. 4) This one is a mystery tbh. Possibly some kind of beta leftover like in 1). I'm 100% certain about the other lines though.
I think in the beta the fat Big Bear were a flashback cutescene and during the mission where we see big bear he would actually join us(probably forced by sweet, which I think started a fight with B-dup and won with CJ's help) in Grove but he was still in rehab during what I think was from when he was supposed to came back to when OG Loc made a party but the ballas attacked grove street, maybe he was the one to tell everyone the ballas were coming instead of a random gang member
I still wonder why big bear, b dup, lil Brian,Tony, big devil all these characters were not introduced in the introduction video?
Really cool that you took the time and effort to make this, props!
So big bear confirmed here that Sweet has practically done shit while CJ was in Liberty and that Sweet is a bad leader.
Wow I always thought of big Bear as a "small" character. keep up the good videos they are super neat and clean it makes it easy to read.
It would be awesome to see Rockstar remaster GTA SA with all the unsuded content finished)
Big Bear didnt gain weight, he lost it, he even says "Most successful diets I've ever been on!" at 3:21. He got skinny when he got into doing crack
That line was said before the rehab.
***** I know, at 7:05 you say after he returned from rehab he started to roll with sweet and cj that is why he gained weight where as the line said about his diet before his rehab would suggest he was fat before and lost it due to crack
Arcklez Well, I slightly misunderstood your point, sorry.
From the very beginning I thought the same way. For instance, Bear was fat before the game, then he became slim due to the crack and finally, he gained this weight back after or while his rehab.
I removed this thought, because he became junky a long time ago, so there is no way to show this model in the beginning of the game.
Who knows.
***** True, but also in the mission "Cleaning the Hood" When CJ sees Big bear he says "Big Bear is that you?" almost as if CJ can hardly recognize him. That also might indicate that way back before CJ left San Andreas Big bear was fat. Unless Im misinterpreting that line.
Arcklez Another good point! Unfortunately, it will be a mystery forever. At least I can add this information in the description.
Big Bear has that name for a reason like Big Smoke he was wide. Most likely his fat model was going to be used for the Introduction video but for some reason they cut it out. Like how his dialogue said after Brian died and CJ left for Liberty City. Sweet became hard to deal with, a bad leader. They started to lose their dominance in the city and when Seville Boulevard and Temple Drive Families split from the Grove. It made everything worse over the years CJ was gone. Unlike how Sweet nearly gave up and started to give in to the drugs at the end; Big Bear actually did and became very addicted to it. That's probably what the three Ballas at the Introduction video meant when they said "Even OGs want a slice of this" and "This shit right here changes everybody" All of that continuous smoking made him lose all of that weight and that's why he's like that. But he was still addicted to it and spent all of his money and probably lost his house. Around that time B-Dup must have started going in the crack game for himself and he decided to live with him and being able to smoke all the crack he wants in exchange for house service. That's probably when Big Smoke started to betray the Grove for his own purposes and decided to have Ryder join him to help C.R.A.S.H. That's what they were talking about the opportunity. Make it seem like they had no choice and still make a quick buck. Then shortly after his Crack Fortress started up he kept it hush hush so no one would know what he was doing that's probably how and why he got his own place out of the Grove. Be suspicious living there and Sweet see Tenpenny and Pulaski there all the time bugging him to do their dirty work. Only reason Ryder probably didn't move out was to be a mole for Smoke whenever he was handling his Crack Fortress or C.R.A.S.H. business.
A random thought at Big Bear having both thin and fat models. His voice actor was massively overweight until 2003 when he underwent surgery to remove 250 pounds. Since his character also has two different models for vastly different physiques it could somehow have something to do with that.
He lost weight!
I kind of wish they used more grove street families models like the ones in the cutscene in green sabre and the one with the blender
the OG posse was Sweet, Smoke, Ryder, CJ, Brian, Big Bear, B Dup, Big devil and lil devil.
This channel deserves more subs nothing not that Fernando shit this guy deserve more
I would love to see him return as a calm but dangerous character
Your videos are the best man! keep them coming!
I think there is fat big bear becuese he was costumisable like CJ.
And there was supposed after the mission the player being bear and CJ just like in GTA 5.
Maybe it would've been possible to find Big Bear on the streets after his rehab, hence his lines talking like the 3 fams after they're acquired.
We can only think the beta version would've been more fun and diverse. There are so many different things just by looking through the leftovers of the things scrapped. Big Bear, Tony, Little Devil, Big Devil, Brian, LB, Little Weasel's betrayal, Ryder's shady death and so on. It just feels like the final version of the game is a couple of puzzle pieces put together from the actual idea.
Pissed off Big Bear's role got diminished solely because his voice actor did a REALLY fucking good job with him. Did an amazing job voicing him.
I think that grove street had huuuuuuge number of skins even with secret Big Bear character (csbigbear2) and because of PS2 limits Rockstars had to just leave 3 simple skins for every gang what a shame
Oh wow I didn't know those Big Bear´s conversation lines. Good work, man.
0:22 When Sweet takes big bear to rehab in the mission Beat Down B-Dup, Big Bear has the fat model.
i play samp as fat big bear
Oh man, there so many mysteries in the GTA series...
What i actually think is that Big Bear should be fat in the mission called "Cleaning the hood". Cuz nobody said he looked different. So he used to be fat. On the mission called "Beat down on B Dup" CJ mention he changed and Big Bear said : "The best diet i ever had". The timeline between these missions is kinda long. So he had his "diet" and lost his weight between these missions. But still this doesnt answer the question why rocksater didnt used the fat Big Bear model. İts just my opinion why there is a fat model of Big Bear. @Vadim M
Can't we make a dyom of all the removed missions?
Yeah. Why else does it stand for *Design* Your Own Mission?
Sadly... Dyom don't had enough devices for this.
@@ratofanatico4829 What do you mean?
@@thatoverweightguywitharms.7961 Its Impossible to make a Beta mission with dyom
i can make one beta mission its eazy
I liked this music playin in the background
Vladim M, keep up the good work man. I love the work you put in to find out stuff about GTA SA (my favorite game of all time.) I just wanted you to know that I love the stuff you do, and please keep up this GTA Beta stuff! We love it!
I'd love to see big bear making a cameo in another gta game kinda like packie or something.A lot of his story wasn't even used in the game.It's a shame since he looks like a cool and unique character...
Hey Vadim
What happens Og Loc and B Dup?
Jamaica is my city they get married and have kids
@@fauberkaupfmann982 ramsey
Chicken man, no discussion
@@haaachu2887 About dead B Dup, he actually is supposed to be, except in the beta version.
@@thatoverweightguywitharms.7961 Then How Is B-Dup Alive In The Final Version
Maybe the Russian tells big smoke that cj is coming as suggested by the cut lines. That's why big smoke says that he was waiting for CJ to show up
This would take up alot of time, but could you make a modded mission where you can re-create those 'beta' missions by all the data you've uncovered? Like the beta 'Beat Down on B Dup' mostly featured in this episode. Obviously some beta missions where re-coverable but most arn't. Please reply and see if you or someone else could. It'd be a great mod!
What should have happened was after Big Bear was taken to rehab and went back to Grove Street, an actual two player mode should have been unlocked and Big Bear could be treated like CJ. Or maybe Big Bear should have had missions that helped you conquer all the territories. Think about it, two four door/seat cars, each driven by Bear or CJ, and in total there would be 8 Grove Street Family Members taking over Los Santos. Why do GSF members always compliment CJ's shoes?
Great video, learned a lot with it but the song was too repetitive. Could you next time use the gta sa or another song please? But again, congratulations! You make a great content!
If you watch the 2nd trailer for GTA San you see near the beginning a quick clip of big bear punching the guy that cj and Ryder confront trying to see big bear, which means it's true, cuz after he punched the guy who was telling him what to do he prob went with Ryder and cj. Which also means he must've came later in the making of San sense he was shown in the 2nd trailer and not the first
I think they removed mistakly some files of Big Bear or tried to change the character place in the storyline, idk...
I think we would have got to see big bear in his prime if they made a San Andreas stories back in the day, also Brian Johnson and their mom
maybe big bear was supposed to be like the second character (playable) in sa?
like gta v did. since thats what the creators had in mind.
MikeYT Studios That was scrapped early EARLY on due to technical limitations at the time. I think it wasn't that.
I think that the fat one was the old bear before becoming a crack addict, and the gsf one was after the rehab, ready to roll with grove (also regained weight but not as before). I‘m sure it‘s not right but it‘s coherent.
I think that big bear was character to co op with your frinds and play the missions together
Would have been cool to play as Sweet or even Brian in SA stories
I have Ironman's skin in place of big bear slim
It would be cool to sometimes bump into bear if a territory is being invaded, or the grove suddenly invades another gangs territory. like: "Ey CJ I was just driving to the burgershot then these balla fools started blasting, guess we have to take the whole neighborhood now huh?" And he would have a signature wepon, like sweet and his AK, Smoke and tenpenny with the Spaz, and bear could have a desert eagle???
I think big bear was supposed to have mission too. I.e like Ryder or Big Smoke or Sweet. Though it's strange on how he was supposed to played a bigger role in the beta but in final game he's just that, forgotten character not even anyone remember him..
Amazing work!
I think the reason Big Bear was helping you in the cut-out mission is because CJ and Sweet helped him out on the "Beat Down on B Dup" ,i think he's trying to return the favor, plus he's a GSF member so...
The name Big Bear I think because he was like Big smoke , fat, so that's why they call him big. Maybe the fat model was planned to be used to the prologue/introduction so we can know more about him.
the other model could be the beta version of bear, and later was changed...
The game could be real masterpiece, they cut A LOT of it maybe because the mission was long/difficult or too long or maybe can't fit in one disc...
Fat model is his pre-drugs self not after-rehab self (thus the Big Bear)
Nice video Russian Brother , you earned a sub
i only know you every video is can be believed and trust easily . so , i support and subscribe you .
Maybe this is why the game crashes after "Taking down B Dup" mission, because the cut part
i think he was more like the guards you get in vice city after you conpleted the game
my tin foil hat conspiracy theory on all this is that at the beginning of GTA sa they wanted to set up a prequel and the player could play cj before he left for liberty and it revolved around the death of cjs brother Brian since it happens to be a prominent thing that many characters reference to and how smoke says cj used to be buffer before and big bear fat model, but the whole prequel thing was scrapped very early on
Big bear probabily help CJ to get all the gang territorys back after rehab like a side mission who you go to bears house or bears call to you and you choose "yes" or "no"... of course this is a theory
This one is very good keep it up =)
It just hit me
If there were mission packs And what one of the gta creators said thatThe multi character idea from gta 5 was Going to be on san andres , by my guessing Some of cjs missions would be played thru By ceaser and I guess by 1987 you could play as big bear .
Man that fat GSF model looks so cool, I'd like to imagine fat Big Bear with those clothes, it would be like 3 GSF members in one with a lot of health. Big Smoke would be in real trouble if Big Bear teamed up with CJ like that in the final mission
just imagine all skins removed from the game I hope it´s almost 50% of the present peds
I don't think he's actually think he's fat when he's wearing the hoodie. I think it's just the hoodie making him look "wider"
Also, I think the Big Bear idea was dropped because by the time the grand finale came by, he would probably still be in rehab.
Hey vadim, do the other game analysis too >o
b dup: all big bear care about is smokin dope and keepin my house clean
big bear: HELLLL YEAA
b dup: hell yeah what!
big bear: HELL YEAH SIR!
b dup: no go make that muthafuckinn toilet sparkle!
big bear: everyone like to party cj ill see you around
what is the name of the song?
nevermind i just read the description
Oh, so this is the reason why I don't understand why ryder and CJ call him big bear
The guy went through a ultimate diet
Nicely done!
Well if you take his models by logic : When he was first rolling with the Grove he was like Big Smoke - a fat and chubby... Then he split with the grove and became a drug addict - wich made his lose his weight and become a slave... Then he joined Rehab and after he joined back with the grove.
At min. 4:22 , if you played the beta i bet you sure know that guy is Ryder. Grand Theft Auto San Andreas Beta Mod Trailer ( Skip to min 2:46 )
Sorry for my English
Well i know i am late. But according to quote lines, i think firstly when big bear became a slav for b dup he used to be fat. But after bbeat down on b dup, cj questions him how thin big bear is. So according to me, before cj escaped ls big bear used to be fat, but after leaving gsf he got low on food and became thin. I still aint got any idea on his gang skin
