can companions die?
In the Quick Look, Jeff said that they can't.

I had one die in hardcore mode. Pissed me off something fierce since everyone kept saying that would only go unconscious. Reloaded to a previous save and was much more careful about my companions after that.
" Rex died and Im playin on hardcore. Sad sad day =( "That kamikaze dog dies all the goddamn time.
Me: "Ok, Rex. I need you to stay put. I got a bad feeling about this."
Rex: "O look! A minefield" *runs off*
Me: "no Rex DON-" *explosions*
"Rex dies"
"Perk lost"
How come my companions won't STAY when I TELL THEM to STAY? Frustrating as hell.
Companions can't die in normal mode, but you do still need to be careful about losing them. There have been several occasions where ED-E has somehow mysteriously switched to "Hold Position" mode, and I've ended up having to retrace my steps to figure out where exactly we got split up.

i get boone and rex knocked out all the time on normal. have never had them die flat out. i assume it is possible to kill them myself maybe.
