    Yep we are going to 2.5-3C at least which means everyone below 50th parallel gets to enjoy some fun time dealing with food shortages and mass migration. That includes all the US.

    And then 50/50 chance we are going to 3.5-4C which means we all die so realy "survivable" is wishful thinking.

      I think in the 3.5c situation it will really just be organized states with social technologies to endure hardship but I have a feeling all the damage by 2.5 c will destroy a lot of countrys. Countrys like the usa won't make it due to lack of ability to organize coherent goals and having lived the last 2 centurys on what is essentialy story mode for the country.

        Story mode as opposed to what? I can't think of a game with survival mechanics in it that also are not integrated into story, and arcade mode more accurately reflects a lot of what's going on. Resources are constant and you can do whatever.

          My apologies I sorta just used story mode as catch all for north American abundance and general isolation that has carefully been maintained.

            it occurred to me you probably meant story mode like in fighting games. I was only thinking of single player, my bad.
