Falling damage Q

[windlord]

Gday folks,

I just saw totalbiscuits awesome vid today and it got me wondering about falling damage.

At a coupla point the player abandons their aerospace vehicle and falls to the surface of the planet and survives? wtf? I say this because the vehicle falls and explodes.

Ok you have a gadget in your suit that protects you from gravity... sooo why wouldn't that gadget be in your vehicle?

There seems to be a logic disconnect here that needs to be resolved due to its high impact on game dynamics.

Thoughts?
