new leaderboard image/ goldengate bridge


Recommended Posts

it seems like the golden gate bridge is indeed being destroyed. why do i say this? In the loading screen (il add a pic supplied by pinnaz) you can see the golden gate bridge in the background.

On the bridge you can see that the support beams are already in place. I don't know why a bridge would already have beams in place before the actual bridge sections would be added. From the few times i have watched bridges being built (t.v. and the few times iv seen them built in seoul, korea) they usually add the section and then add the support beam. in the picture, you can see all the support beams ready but you don't see any actual bridge.

extra support beams just "lying" there just adds extra dead weight and gets in the way of the building process if they are in the way and aren't needed.

just my two cents, not a bridge expert :D but that jumped out at me.

I dont understand what you are getting at here. I see wires holding up a section of bridge in that image. And we know that sections of the bridge must have been built, because the electric chairs are on the bridge.

Thanks for letting us know about the update though :)
