Mystery cutscene, or I've lost my mind
I'm starting to think it's been tooo long since I played the main FS2 campaign through. I just stumbled across this review which contains this screenshot, supposedly from one of the cutscenes:



I could swear I've never seen this shot before. Sooo... a cut cutscene, or early senility for ZB?

That is from the ENDGAME cutscene, in a very brief moment where you see Terran and Shivan forces fighting before Capella goes nova.

My first thought was the Deimos and Moloch duking it out just before the supernova shockwave hits, but there isn't enough nebula in the background.  Maybe an early version of it?

Ahhh yes, the end sequence. Funny, all I remember is those two ships getting smashed by the shockwave front.

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

It's a different angle to the cutscene so yes, it'll be a development shot :nod:

No it isn't. I took the shot below a split second after the part in the pic at the top of this thread.

It's the final ENDGAME custcene that was shipped with FS2. It's a Moloch, a Deimos, and some fighters duking it out, seconds before the shockwave hits. After this shot, I believe, it cuts to an upper view of the two, where the shockwave hits and the Deimos and Moloch are ripped apart.

Well I'll be. I thought the ingame angle was more down the middle, between the two corvettes. Oh well, shows how long it's been...

I think there is another clip from several seconds before that shows this.

when they are first seen, there are serapeth and other fighters between the two, and the hatsheptsut in the backround, which looks like it was filmed in game from strait on the side view, and then turned slightly in the final video, as the shockwaves are egg shaped...
