After the plane crash you are concussed, badly briused(sic) and feeling weak. Your hand was wounded during the crash. You will not be able to climb or hold weapons until it heals through rest.
In-game description

Plane Crash Injuries is a cut Affliction encountered in the mission Survival Of The Fittest of Episode 1: Do Not Go Gentle in the Predux Wintermute storyline. It is considered Cut/Discontinued Content but can still be experienced by using the Time Capsule to play versions V1.15, V1.30, or V1.37 of Steam versions of Wintermute.

Overview[]

It was acquired immediately after waking up in the ravine after the plane crash, and would persist for 5 Days. It prevents Will Mackenzie from Sprinting, holding Stones, or from using the Rock Climb to leave the ravine on Day 4 (Causing him to fall and Sprain his Ankle). It finally heals on Day 5, and serves as a way to slow the player down in order to immerse them in the world as part of the tutorial.

In the Redux, Mackenzie instead wakes up with Blood Loss, a Sprained Wrist, a Sprained Ankle, and 2 Pain from the Sprains, with the cause listed as originating from Plane Crash Injuries.

Trivia[]

  • This Affliction uses the same icon as Sprained Wrist.
  • Plane Crash Injuries was retconned out of Episode 1 with the removal of the mission Survival Of The Fittest. Mackenzie now only stays in the ravine for 2 days in the Redux Episode 1 mission The Crash (though Mackenzie will still fail to climb out on day 1 if you attempt to leave early).
