Is your temperature supposed to drop when riding in the PBX (inflatable) boat? I recently found one near Brenzino(NE city on coast, whatever its called) and wanted to check out Skelisty Island, so I fueled it up and set off, but by the time I got there I was freezing to death and ended up catching a cold or whatever it is that makes your blood slowly reduce. I've driven plenty of inflatables in my life and I can assure you it's not a very cold experience. And the fact that you can't access your inventory(to use heat packs) makes boating stupid. Planning pit stops every couple minutes to build a fire or jump out to use a heat pack adds very little to the game and is a risk with new spawns lining the beaches with Makarovs. In fact when I used the camo clothing and spawned in the ocean and swam to shore I was less cold than spending a few minutes in the PBX.

YES -Give people flashlights since they take up the side arm slot, and someone with a flashlight could be an asset to someone with a weapon. -Remove the backpack, why did I leave home with an empty backpack? And players wouldn't be as likely to carry extra ammo/weapons because "they have the space" leaving them for the unarmed players to scavenge. -Remove the medical supplies. Maybe a bandage or two since we can't rip clothing, but no morphine or pills. -Perhaps add some trash & wood spawns along the beach so players can scavenge for cans and bottles to throw, and wood just because it's a beach.
