How can the marines take their helmets off on Char?
Before landing on Char, General Warfield says that Char has "an atmosphere that will burn a man alive;" however, during the cinematics, the marines are shown without their helmets and there doesn't appear to be any sort of shielding on their platform. How is this possible?

Ender is right - there is no in-game reason for this.
This is just the rule of cool. Extremely hostile environments are cool - only real heroes may prevail there. Speaking to each other from behind closed helmets is uncool - the player can't see character's dramatic expressions.
Conflict? No, why? :-)

It's just that the story of SC2 is not exactly thoroughly written, we all have to deal with it.
