Default Story? *SPOILERS*

Just finished it. I'm sure it makes a bit more sense in Russian, at times I think the translations were pretty bad. So I get the ending and the Danko story (one man saves them all at his own expense, egoism leads to inaction fear and death, etc.), but there's a lot of open questions I still have, for example:

- Continuity - so the ship hits an iceberg and is stuck for two weeks -- does that happen before or after the captain is shot 'full ahead' meaning they are moving? Obviously it happens after the ship hits the iceberg, which means they escaped, as immediately afterward the reactor blows?

- The ship hit an iceberg in the '60s? But the game says present is 1981? Really, the time-line is a blur

- In one of the episodes (crew gathered round the reactor pipes) they say they contacted HQ and help is coming -- so?

- Why did the reactor explode? It had shut down? How come the protagonist is immune to radiation?

- And the most nagging question -- What really happened to the crew -- the ones that attack you? As I understand they succumbed to the iceberg / cold sickness... Um, yeah, right... Any sense? Not really. Plus the level with the sick people apparently mutating to become whatever they've become...? Was that because of the reactor radiation or they started to mutate due to the influence of the polar cold?

- At the end of the aforementioned level the brig level starts which is completely (together with the guys shooting from the movie screen) is sooo Silent Hill-style -- e.g. the morgue becomes a jail all of a sudden -- how come?

- Who's that guy during the B/W flashbacks who, if he touches you, you die. It actually looks like... the protagonist?

- Why did I have to save the bear? I just crouched and reached the hatch? Bug?

Please no speculations I can make up ten thousands theories, something argumentative please
