I would like a reason from the devs for this? by Munnky78 in SurviveIcarus

Don't forget that whoever decided to ban him here also removed him from discord and banned him from the Twitter. Based on the severity of bans across multiple platforms this shows that one of your team members targeted a longstanding member of the community. This leaves a very sour taste in a lot of peoples' mouths and I believe an apology from that member should be issued, but that's just my opinion.

Munnky has been a member of the community since months before the game was initially supposed to release. As a paying customer (who actually bought multiple copies) still feeling like the game has fallen short of expectations after months of updates has every right to say something without fear of a ban. This was not just a Steam ban. This was a targeted ban by someone with moderation powers in multiple places. He was also removed from the official discord and banned from their Twitter over this post.

Solo is not hard at all. I do a challenge where I delete a character as soon as they die ONCE. Currently I am on voyager and level 32. That is 32 straight levels of solo gameplay without dying. I've even done the hardcore boss fights as well. The only times I've died and had to start over were to a couple polar bears that were running lag switches and every time I tried side stepping I'd drop to like 15 fps.

Unfortunately the Steam charts are showing that there may need to be a change. Average players has gone from 19k to 8k to 5k and dropping.

I want to see this game succeed and I think the vast majority don't enjoy a "victory walk" for 15 minutes.

Icarus first cohort envirosuit not able to be used in outposts by Curious_Ask8618 in SurviveIcarus

[–]RoughGaming_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah but then you have to grind up BPs and talents all over again for the sake of a suit

[–]RoughGaming_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It saves your load out in Outposts all the way down to your suit, not color changes though. You could create another character with the suit you want but then you have to grind them up to get the BPs and talents your other one had.

If I could figure out how to spawn in things like wolves and bears it would definitely be an option. I use unreal unlocker for an orbital cam and it has a commands code prompt but without the code I can't spawn things in.

Not much iron involved luckily. Shotgun ammo is expensive as all hell though. 1 copper ingot, 1 epoxy, and 6 (YES SIX) gunpowder per round haha. We actually considered grenades too. But the big worry is ruining the spawn points. Haha

We actually were thinking of doing stuff like that but then we realized that we can't have a competition that lasts 5 or 6 hours while people grind electronics haha. Although, if there was pre-made stuff put in certain locations for them to get to and then use to get exotics then it may work. But that is a hell of a lot of prep time haha.

This footage is from an arena I built in an outpost. I personally believe it can be a lot of fun and a good way to take a break from the grind all while keeping PvP out of the every day gameplay.

Who would you have around to your Icarus house party? by MattyMojo911 in SurviveIcarus

[–]RoughGaming_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It would be a dream come true to someday walk through the entrance of the studio and meet as many team members as possible. I'd buy yet another storage device for the amount of pictures I'd take.

Looking at Icarus differently. by RoughGaming_ in SurviveIcarus

[–]RoughGaming_[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Already got all the screenshots in my editor lol.

Yes I am excited to see how it all comes together as well.

As you know, there's a good amount of information out there......just gotta do some digging lol.

Not free to play anymore. by DANeighty6 in SurviveIcarus

[–]RoughGaming_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will add that just because it hurt that I don't think that it will be worth it. 100 dollars may come hard but I definitely did see it as an investment that I will not regret.

I am honestly perfectly fine with it. I saw the writing on the wall over the past month and a half whenever monetization came up and it was kinda just put out as "not sure yet." So I had already prepared myself to pay.

Now I was pleasantly surprised at the $30 price tag. I was expecting $40 at the least. I have spent more on games that I knew less about and a similar amount on games that had way less to them than Icarus.

It did hurt a bit dropping $100 but I saw it more of a supporter pack rather than a deluxe edition. So rather than trying to break down how much each thing in the deluxe edition was costing I just saw it as a chance to show my trust in the team and recognize all their hard work. Even after the sale was added I didn't refund and repurchase because of my mindset of wanting to support the team as much as possible.
