[Spoiler] I'm Confused.

Also, theres a rumor floating around that apperature science discovered how to make fake biomes, and it could be in fact just a fake biome glados put her in.

The clouds did look fake to me.

Someone was complaining because her head didn't explode the other day. Vacuums don't work that way, as others have pointed out; you can actually survive briefly in a pure vacuum.

Plus the moon doesn't have 0 atmosphere, just very little. So it wasn't even a pressure difference of one atmosphere.

When the turret Oprah was playing, I think Valve cut out a 2 hour chunk in it, resulting in a skip from night to day.

Ummmmm.....

Seriously though, why has no one in this thread so far taken exception to this?

[Whiplashr]

Ummmm.. I did? And so did at least someone else.. suggesting the amount of time that passed during Chell's unconciousness covers the change from day to night?

GLaDOS is all repaired and shiny in her new lair when you wake up. Who knows how long it was.. in a game where you routinely spend long periods in stasis.. I don't understand this complaint at all.

[SkyeHawc]

It was never a complaint. i just wanted to see if I was the only one thinking it. I wasn't, and I guess I was wrong.
Problem solved. Yay?

He obviously meant there's no black sky in the daytime.

[Whiplashr]

I think I misunderstood, sorry.

Glados and her entire lair is repaired, plus both the robots are there. Glados also had enough time to run a scan of her system and find caroline.exe. It's been awhile, at least 24 hours.

It's okay. We all do something wrong in our lives.
Just be glad the internet isn't global! I mean, think about it.
That would have to be one big net.

I think science fiction is now a dead genre because people won't accept it as a good, fun experience unless it abides absolutely by the scientific literature.

Take it for what it is: a fun story with good gameplay and great humor. I don't think the game is meant to be super-duper realistic.

I actually remembered it being daytime when you see the moon, but someone has just told me I couldn't be more wrong.

So yeah, ignore everything I said.

And also. The facility is huge. One game she ends up at a checkpoint and this one she is in a wheat field.

Chances of her finding anyone..... ummm..... 0?

The moon is too small to have an own atmospere. But there's the air coming out from the portal.
