PC Environmental Effects

[OneManStanding]

Um -- I have cooling mesh and thermal liner mods, but I haven't had to use them. I'm in athletic armour, no perks into resisting environmental effects at all, but haven't had any issues in the desert or the snow. Normally I'd be freezing to death in the cold or suffering heat stroke in the desert without putting some mods in to my attire. I might be out of the loop -- are the environmental effects different now? Where they removed? Glitched? Or - like the heat from the dew collectors - missing and to be included in some update?

Haven’t looked at the roadmap in a little bit but believe environmental effects will be back in that planned Q4 Storms Brewing update this year.

Each piece of armor currently gives you 20 hot and cold resistance IIRC.  This is a temporary buff likely due to fewer armor/clothing mod slots.  The changes to weather and environmental effects coming later should make those mods useful again, or perhaps even required.  Maybe there will be a separate mod slot for those or something else.  Not sure how they will handle it.  For now, those are only useful to sell.
