Sgt. Sabaton on his way to rescue Laura Lockhart!

A view of Cap au Diable from the AE building:

I actually managed to save one of the Scrapyarders from Cage in that "Discarded Picket Sign" hero alignment mission. He must have been made of sterner stuff than usual:

A screenshot from live (March 31, 2012, if I read the filename correctly):

Reproduced as best I could for Homecoming, April 21, 2022, just a hair over 10 years later:

Looking at those last two side-by-side, I can see the higher graphics setting I can use on my current machine, a 2018 CyberPowerPC, compared to the 2008 iMac I was using for the first pic (huh, just realized both computers were about 4 years old when the screenshots were taken). The most obvious thing is that, in the second shot, the foliage on the trees in the background has rendered because I can now set a higher draw distance. And you can see more of the power line towers against the buildings in the background, though some of that may be the difference of the in-game time of day.

I liked the lighting here:

This Arachnos disguise is perfect! They'll never suspect I'm working for Longbow!

I always enjoy accidentally hitting those spots where the lighting and geometry glitch out.

Great to see so many toons together. But ... can somebody tell me where this was taken?

I don't recognize the location, environment, Statesman statue or anything.

In Kallisti Wharf, at the base of the Statesman statue in One Statesman Plaza (near the center of the zone). The statue in the screenshot normally has stone texture (or it did the last time I was there, which has been a little while), so the one in the screenshot probably either has a modded texture or was edited with an image editor.

Yup, I used a mod to change the statue.

PPD Enforcer: We've got a member of Powers Division under fire, sending in backup.

Red Bomb: Got some of your BOYS to back you up huh!? I'll just have to FIGHT A LITTLE HARDER!

 

Spoiler: Backup didn't show up on time.

 

When they finally showed up (approx. an hour later):

How do I make  gif from the game?
