Holy *BLEEP*ing *BLEEP*. What used to be Skyway City, as of five minutes ago.


Synapse: "You MANIACS! YOU BLEW IT UP! God DAMN YOU! GOD! DAMN! You all to HELLLL!!"

Once again, Leandro making the magic happen here. I'm going to guess that this is based on a "Nuked Skyway City" map meant for the Battalion attack.

At least we know there are some survivors in there...

Man - Skyway City just can't catch a break, can it?

I mean - kinda lost and forgotten by City Planners after the experiment with all the useless overpasses, then the central span being knocked down during the Sutter TF, now this?

(and about that central span - I always thought that a later issue of the game should do away with those bridges and put in a long park area down the center of Skyway. )

Sounds like the Big Dig in Boston -- 15 years and a billion dollars will get you that ( ' ;

That is pretty awesome and sad (as well as a most appropriate chanelling of Charlton Heston).

Synapse: "My God..."

Mynx: *looks around a bit, biting her lip, then spots something and brightens with a bit of forced cheer*  "Oh hey! It's not all bad!"

Synapse: *just gives her a look halfway between incredulous and forlorn*

Mynx: "Look over there, under the intact overpass, the "El Super Mexicano is still there. We can still get tacos!"

Synapse: "..."

Mynx: "mew?"

Synapse: "So I DID leave the stove on..."

Mynx: Ô.o
I'm bad and that's good.
I'll never be good and that's not bad.
There's no one I'd rather be than me.

...unless I could be Batman, of course. Everybody wants to be Batman.

Looks like LA. lol

No really though, that is a cool pic there and now knid of curious of what other damage these Battalion people would have done to the other zones and if Villain zones would have gotten the same treatment.


Looks like Synapse is saying to Minx. "Dang, I knew it was a bad a idea sending all the heroes to Steel Canyon on my long TF."

Minx-"Yep. Been telling you that for years."

Hahahaha. :D

I can SO actually see the conversation between them going exactly like that, too, if it were a comic or something.

You know the destroyed Atlas Park mission map in the Time After Time story arc? El Super Mexicano was still standing in that one as well.

I think we learned where Blue Steel eats lunch.

lmao!

The War Walls are still up (structurally, can't tell if the shields are or not....drawing distance is too short :P ). Go figure.

That looks a lot like the last mission of the Sutter TF after the Praetorians bombed Skyway.

First it was Overbrook, then Faultline, then New Overbrook. Now it's a wasteland of flooded canyons and smoldering rubble.

With Penny's apartment in ruins, there'll be no homemade donuts to assuage Fusionette's grief and rage this time. DOOOOOM!

corvus1970

What event is that shot from?

Also, was it Fusionette's fault? ;)

These are from Leandro, using demorecords of the zones & characters, modified & arranged via his scripting techniques (the videos for which appear to have been removed from Youtube. Hmmm).

And the event is, unfortunately, the total destruction of Paragon City, Rhode Island.

Gotcha. He has a real talent for Demo-Editing!

The scripts I put on Youtube parsed demos that people created while being online, so they are useless now. That's why the instructions went away; they can't be used without being logged in to a server.

I have my own set of scripts to create demos while offline, but those are a bit harder to use. Angelus Animi has been using them because she's very, very, very stubborn, but most people would smash their heads against the wall and give up after 5 minutes with them.
