How much PROPERTY DAMAGE does Sonic cause in City Escape?

Personally I believe sonic is absolutely rad for destroying an entire city in a matter of one act.

[@GottaGoFast91]

Also he’s never getting out of jail

[@banobobot]

I feel like the amount of property damage Sonic had caused is mostly chalked up to player choice. You don’t have to wreck the cars.

[@jamiegioca9448]

Kinda like how Mario is labeled as a Yoshi abuser when it's obviously the player who's being sadistic to the poor dino boi

[@poweroffriendship2.0]

Sonic doesn't do damage but the GUN Truck did.

[@teaboy0996]

But it's funny So it's justified

[@LuigiFonzar]

If Sonic was able to talk to the player,after you destroy a car he whould say:Player!What the heck you'v done?!?!?!?You destoy a car which now are you wondering how much is jt righ?Well... IT WAS A LOT OF MONEY! I don't want to go to prison dude!Please,don't destroy other cars

I’m only now realizing how hilarious and absurd the concept of a hedgehog “snowboarding” down San Francisco, inadvertently destroying millions worth of property within a few minutes, while also being a wanted fugitive really is when removed from its context 💀

[@comicfan1324]

I feel like the fairest way to calculate this is to do what you did by showing the absolute maximum level of damage you can cause, but then you should also do a Playthru where you see what is the absolute minimum level of damage you can cause, and then take the average from those two outcomes.

[@tonyhakston536]

I think the fairest way would be to look at a Score Attack run.

Further Proof Sonic Is A Menace To Society. This becomes even worse when you consider how many more laws Sonic breakthrough out the game. I mean just think about metal harbor, and how many millions of dollars are worth of military equipment sonic destroyed without a second thought. Even if you try arguing that G.U.N was corrupt at one point due to the cover up of the Ark Raid, they are still supposed to be our standing for the military in this universe. So sonic pretty much crippled United Federation’s defense department, right before Eggman held the world hostage. Sonic is probably partially to blame why G.U.N couldn’t just counterattack the Eggman Empire.

[@XOFInfantryman]

No no, the Ark raid was them simply being based

[@animesoul479]

So, are we going to add in the hospital bills from those moving cars? Assuming they had people inside of them Sonic sends them flying whenever he either runs into them or knocks other cars into them. Some of them get sent quite a distance so there may be some possible deaths too XD

There are infinite moving cars, you cant really count them.

[@animesoul479]

This actually depends on how you control Sonic around city escape. I think it’s possible to not do any property damage, minus the crates that’s mandatory to break and the tire

[@qdh2788]

The truck and makeshift skat🅱️oard tho?

[@ToonyTails]

Over $90 Milllon… that’s A LOT. Although it probably woulda been less if chat GPT didn’t get $62 million outta teleportation tech. Anyways now I wanna see a vid where you calculate the amount of time it would take to pay that off… with rings.

[@dylanzlol7293]

Teleportation tech is likely expensive, given that, well, it's teleportation.

@@dylanzlol7293 How do you even financially measure a technology that technically doesn’t exist yet?

@@ToonyTails well, realistically, teleportation would be very expensive due to what it's worth, it must be pretty hard to make a machine able of teleporting itself.

[@paradoxicaloutcome1007]

I'd honestly say that ChatGPT underestimated the cost of most of these military drones. Unmanned military drones cost anywhere from around a million to several million dollars. That's not even getting into stuff like jet planes and tanks, which can cost dozens of millions each. I can see teleportation tech by itself costing 60 million dollars easily regardless of what it's attached to, considering an F-16 costs 60-70 million dollars and that jet fighter sure as shit can't teleport.

[@ToonyTails]

@@paradoxicaloutcome1007 So you’re saying it’d most likely be in the 100’s of Millions of Dollars?

[@BiolizardthePrototype]

After picking up my lunch for my break, I found out my car was demolished by a massive Goverment Semi chasing a hedgehog. But they saved the world from utter annihilation, so I can’t be too mad about it

[@ladylilith6495]

In regards to cars, the vast majority of Crown Victorias that see taxi service are former police cruisers with their police equipment removed and the rear doors - that can't be opened or unlocked from the inside for obvious reasons - swapped out for the doors on your standard Panther Platform. Crown Victoria, Marauder, Town Car, etc. While every other car could be classed at base-level trim, factor in the starting price of the dedicated Crown Victoria Police Interceptor trim and it could be significantly higher.

[@justinterry7853]

Your way to dig deep to find what the cars were based in real life was so elite to hear

[@TheTailsChao093]

I actually try my absolute hardest to dodge the cars in city escape because I don't want to cause property damage. It's up to the player to decide if Sonic causes property damage or not. I still try to avoid them to this day. I'm a law abiding citizen, what can I say?

GUN wasn’t actually after Sonic to cover up anything, they were after him for being a menace to society. Also in the words of Sseth: “Inflation? (shows a steady graph of rising inflation) Haha… Don’t worry about it.” (Spikes up around 2020)

[@sokax6079]

I would absolutely die to see you try beating this level or maybe even the whole game trying to cause as liftle financial damage as possible

[@MegaGeek-gr6ts]

The fact that a lot of the cars are moving means there are people driving in them. Meaning Sonic could have killed or severely injured these people.

[@RezeedTheDataspirit]

Now here's the better question. How much of the actual damage was mandatory and directly caused by the player? (IE Going out of your way to cause the property damage)

[@raymondwalker3020]

Yeah why would Sonic the hero who fights a mad scientist every year destroy cars on purpose.

[@ShadowXeldron]

Sonic: I won't kill Eggman; he has so much good in him. Also Sonic: **slams through a car which is actively being driven at 758.4 mph; most likely reducing the driver and all passengers to a thin red paste** No wonder GUN was after him. I think I'll be careful in City Escape from now on.

[@SideShowBatt]

That is a steep bill but, it doesn't matter. Sonic is hero to the world stopping not only Eggman from holding the world hostage (which he a made public declaration and demonstrated by destroying half the moon) with a planet busting laser, but also stopping the Ark from crashing into the Earth. What is money when he just saved every life on the planet? From where I see it they owe Sonic a debt that they can never pay.

[@brikkets]

honestly, i think teleportation would cost less, since it's completely possible in canon with chaos energy.

[@themanthemyththelegenda]

no, sonic chose violence, wanted to show the world how much of a menace the blue blur is

It’s ok guys,sonic just thought the cars were bigger robots.

[@yutaria290]

I literally had a dream last night that sonic ran back up the streets in city escape and then got arrested for it, then i find this video today what are the chances

[@boombirdking2118]

You can’t blame Sonic for the damage caused by the truck, that was entirely the driver’s fault

[@Axxidous]

I would actually exclude any damage to the GUN truck or any damage the GUN truck has caused as, despite Sonic being the reason it's driving through the city, it's GUN actually causing that damage.

[@YTCyan]

Just for the record, if Sonic is being persecuted as a human, he is 15 years old, meaning that he couldn’t legally pay the fine, and his guardian must pay it. The only character old enough to be legally considered Sonic’s guardian is Big. I feel bad for the guy. Yet again, he did give us all ptsd with his story in Adventure 1, so maybe he deserves it

[@healthyminds9279]

Great video on the maximum possible damage cost you can cause in this level. I wish I could record myself playing through this level naturally 10 times , and watching back the footage to calc the destruction cost each time, then averaging it out. Then I could see how much damage Sonic causes when I'm playing as him. I'd just have to avoid killing the teleporting drone, since that's a big outlier. I've played through City Escape hundreds of times. Because as a kid, it was a decently prominent thing on youtube to try to beat it in under 2 minutes.

Imagine the budget for rebuilding and repainting the building that got smashed by that truck at the end. Not to mention all the million-dollar lawsuits coming from distressed innocent bystanders.
