I love nothing more than hazardous weather in video games, the long dark is pretty good with its intense blizzards that you can get lost and die in minutes, I also love no man’s sky. The whole building a base in an extremely hostile environment that if you step outside for too long you’re a goner.

I’m a sucker for these games, I need more. You guys got anything for my itch? Bonus points if it’s super intense and dangerous

    The Lazarus facilities in Star Citizen have a constant irradiated electromagnetic storm around them. If you fly too deep (past the facility), your ship will be disabled and you’ll crash. You can take a tram deeper into the storm and you’ll start to receive radiation damage. So you’ll either want a special protective suit, or take refuge inside of facility buildings every now and then.

    On this particular planet, your ship can also get hit by stray bolts of lightning (a rare occurence) while flying around any storm . It will shut your ship down for a short time.

    On some parts of planets, the weather is cold enough to freeze you (if you’re not wearing the right protection).

    Some planets are very hot and will kill you if you stay too long outside without protection.

    There’s an underground prison on a hot moon that you can escape from. If you don’t get to a vehicle in time, you’ll die from the heat (or lack of oxygen).
