Pretty funny that you can die from walking out in -40 in this game


Loved the game, but the death of cold thing makes me laugh.
Whitley say on the radio in the intro that it's minus 40 outside, and then when you stay around outside too long in the game Blake get so cold he dies. Coming from Northen Europe I've more than one time been out in -40 for a much longer time than what you can take in the game, and I didn't die from it. It's unpleasant, but here I am, writing this alive. Especially when you're on a military expedition they should be able to dress up correctly for the weather..

But it's probably just Californian people, who only experience cold when they open their fridge who made this, so I guess it's excused;)

(-40 is the same both in celsius and fahrenheit btw)
