-28! Liberation of Liepzig

This is a little cool thing i found while just checking out the TG northern strike server while noone was in it today. In the fast speaders if you take a look on the dashboard, -28! Frosty!

Re: -28! Liberation of Liepzig

For an ice age, -28C is not very cold. Well, depending on the geographical locations I guess. It's colder then that up here in Canada.

Re: -28! Liberation of Liepzig

Coldest recorded temperature in Liepzig stands at -25.1 C (around -13 F). Question is... when is the "Liberation of Liepzig" taking place?

In any case, -25.1 C is the record. If its the norm in BF2142... then yeah. That's cold.

Re: -28! Liberation of Liepzig

Well that's cold.

Although we've had -20 F temperatures in Chicago winters in the past. So I don't think it's that suprising, but perhaps it is for Leipzig.

If you read the storyline summary for the map, you'll realize it takes place roughly 1 year after the EU was pushed back to Africa. So I'm guessing possibly late 2143 or somethere early to mid-2144.

Re: -28! Liberation of Liepzig

But - winter or summer? Or in-between?

Re: -28! Liberation of Liepzig

Well seeing how they're are technically in the third ice age (if you count the minor one so many years ago), does it matter?

-question.

i'm pretty sure bf2142 is not a game known for it's "historical" accuracy.

Re: -28! Liberation of Liepzig

I guess it doesn't matter, but that was the whole point of the thread, the freaking freezing temperatures.

Makes me wonder how they manage to keep the soldiers warm. Are they even human in the future?

Re: -28! Liberation of Liepzig

Yeah, it's cool, I saw it too It certainly will be no fun to be in a speeder with that temparature, I mean you freeze to death in that thing! Now take a Goliath or APC, they probably will have proper heating systems in there...

Re: -28! Liberation of Liepzig

Imagine the wind chill when your cruising at 60 mph at that temperature for the gunner in the speeder.
