Running should raise your body temperature.

Obviously, when you run you should warm yourself if you have like all clothes slots used. I mean you can't tell if in real life you run with this (Screenshot) clothes on you with some 20 kg bag pack wont warm you at all.

Well I suppose it will at first but sweating cools you down sooner or later..with that much loot on your back I'd say sooner.. but still at least a temporary warmth bonus maybe😊

Well during blizzard you could sacrifice some stamina just to warm yourself running to some safe place.

[Leeanda]

You could..  or even take an extra 1-2%clothes damage from the extra dampness... Yuck lol... They need deodorant in this game.

Right, you could find some shampoo or some expensive perfume to confuse the bear in running away.

[Leeanda]

They definitely need something... Sweat blood and all the other stuff doesn't smell good at all.. actually they should already put the predators off lol

[Prometeu]

I was kidding about the perfume tho.

[Leeanda]

Lol.. well it wouldn't be the worst thing in the world 😁

Last I was aware, sprinting did provide a small warmth bonus... just like holding a lit lantern.  However, those effects are small/subtle... and I think it's best that way.

Also... I don't think the game needs to get so pedantic that every quibbled detail from reality should be expected to be painstakingly reproduced in any video game.  As I often say... sometimes a video game, just has to video game.  I don't think any video game should be expected to be a 1-1 simulation of reality.  One, that's just not practical... and two, that would likely give us a game that was very mundane and not much fun to play (kind of like real life).

However, while I do appreciate folks musing about this sort of thing... but honestly, I just don't see it providing enough benefit or value to justify Hinterland spending all the time and resources to change/add them.

As stated it does....but as soon as you stop it goes away from what I recall. They could always just add like a longer timer to it or something...time to start it and time to stop. I don't think it matters since it's so tiny anyways.

I agree it should be a feature. If it is already, I personally think it's too subtle. I've never seen a temperature difference. When at -0C, I've haven't seen the temperature change to an up arrow from running. So if it is a feature it's rarely noticeable. 

But I think running should decrease your body temperature faster after a certain point. It'd be cool to see hypothermia risk increase faster while running too.

I have seen Will not taking his outdoor clothes off indoors and having a temperature of 45°C. That's hot and sweaty!

It was a long time ago that I played so it could have been removed, I am not sure.
