I'm not sure if he's trolling or not.

There are no polar bears in Antarctica.

Why not make it simple by merely making a map of some Siberian wasteland? Snow and ice, check. Brooding abandoned Soviet factories and other structures, check. Diamond-nipple coldness, check. Actual flora useful with a white ghillie suit, check.

Plus the fact that it would be in a place filled with Soviet weaponry.

'Twould bring quite the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Feel, which isn't in any way a bad thing. There are towns quite like Cherno and Elektro scattered all over the place, with abandoned military and industrial Complexes in between.

Rocky and hazardous mountains overlooking frozen-over lakes... Sounds fun. Then there are the awesome Soviet forts...

Well, anyone want to add anything?

There are neither Inuit nor whalers run aground (continental shelf glaciers and the fact that there's no ground accessible anywhere in the antarctic) nor soviet bases (the USSR fell in 1991)

No polar bears either.

No igloos either.

You don't "cure" frostbite. You can treat, even then you can forget about treating it if you are still over there. Takes days/weeks to "cure". Oft leading to amputation.

On the other hand, a winter-fell region could be a nice setting for zombies... If it werent for the fact that zombies would freeze too.

White ghillie suits do not exist. It's just a white suit, if you want to stay hidden, you snug into a snow bank. In actual ARCTIC and sub-arctic regions, it's the same, but with some white shrubbery added on top. Snow cover is too uniform, anything but snow and local flora stands out.

Sleds, okay. Again, no zombies in winter-land.

See above

wat

Again, no white Rawrs in the antarctic. Also, polar bears are pussies. Unless pressed or against a mother with cubs, they will pussy out of anything.

Camping stoves, yes. In any setting. The only good idea throughout.

I clicked on this thread because I wanted to see what Antarctica might have to do with DayZ. I cannot express my disappointment when I read that the first post has been removed by the author! Now I will never know what could have been... :-(

I think the post went something like this....

Hello i have an amazing idea why not have Antarctica as a map :o image the ice, the penguins, the snow, the ice, water! ice cubes, ice holes - to catch fish, ice picks, ice camo, ice creams, melting ice where you fall into an ice hole and freeze to death, cold cock ice, black ice, cock frost (so much to do)

So kinda like dead snow.
