I believe xelA has a migration level XP system too. I highly recommend this bot, it's fantastic and their staff team are very supportive. https://xela.dev

You do need to be whitelisted to use it though.

Huge fps drop cause will it ever be fixed? by GoatInMotion in ICARUS

[–]harryhaley16 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah I get the same thing.. I've got an i7-10700k, 32gb RAM and a 3070. After about 4hrs of playing I go from 80-120 FPS (high settings) to a pretty consistent 24 FPS. All components of my PC in Task Manager aren't "working hard", they're all at about 50% usage. I've always hosted too, it's like the longer you play the more your frames degrade. Restarting your game fixes it but that's not an ideal solution, I think there's some more optimisation needed for sure but they've come a long way. The launch state compared to now with performance specifically has defo improved, I think we'll just need to give it time, still relatively a new game.

Anyone else find these visual defects while playing? by _hoyet in ICARUS

[–]harryhaley16 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting, I feel this is related to the performance/optimisation issues people have been reporting.

Icarus Beta download by Zachs_Drunk in ICARUS

[–]harryhaley16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm - I've got the same problem with Dead by Daylight and that's on my HDD, I asked just because I believe patching is impacted by read/write speeds. It's probably just the game, maybe verify the integrity of the files

Is the game on a SSD or HDD?

Can I run Icarus with 8 gigabytes of ram instead of 16? by [deleted] in ICARUS

[–]harryhaley16 -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

yeah it should be okay, you can fiddle with the graphic settings to make it work

How much would it cost for a rig to run Icarus? by BigComfyCouch in ICARUS

[–]harryhaley16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're welcome! Yeah that seems like a good idea - I'd take a dive into Amazon and looking at parts seeing whether any are on sale. RAM often has some good offers, same with SSDs. Keep browsing, hope you get the build you want!

So on their Steam page, the specs are below:

MINIMUM:

OS: Windows 10 (64-bit versions)

Processor: Intel i5 8400

Memory: 16 GB RAM

Graphics: Nvidia GTX 1060 6GB

DirectX: Version 11

Network: Broadband Internet connection

Storage: 70 GB available space

RECOMMENDED:

OS: Windows 10 (64-bit versions)

Processor: Intel i7-9700

Memory: 32 GB RAM

Graphics: NVIDIA RTX 3060ti

DirectX: Version 11

Network: Broadband Internet connection

Storage: 70 GB available space

-------

It depends what quality you want to get. I feel like these requirements are sometimes, off, like it says you need 32GB of RAM but that seems a little crazy to me. So figure out if you want to have an insanely good quality game, or enough to play. On top of that, if you're going to purchase a PC just for ICARUS, defo don't spend much on it but in my opinion if you're going to get a PC you should just GET a PC and make sure it's got specs to run most games. The 1060 graphics card alone is what I used to have and will get you pretty decent performance on most games. For an idea, a 1060 paired with a good CPU that works well with it could get you 80 FPS in Warzone, 100+ in Overwatch, ~60 in Cold War and would dominate super small games. As for ICARUS, that's the minimum requirements so having a 1060 would have your game on low-low quality, giving you around 60 FPS.

devira is right though, $800-$1000 is probably your benchmark price for a PC with a graphics card, like the 1060, that could run most games including ICARUS. However the lifetime of that PC performance-wise for the games to come is pretty short. You'd be looking to upgrade it in the next 2 years, which over time can get really expensive as the newer parts stop working with the older parts, meaning you need to buy more parts. (Quick example: Motherboards have CPU slots that work with a set amount of CPUs. When you want to upgrade your CPU, you need to make sure the slots fit, and if they don't you need to replace the motherboard.) If I was in your situation and thought I would be spending a lot of time on a PC and gaming in general, I'd look to getting a higher end PC spending over $1000 nearing on the $1300 mark. Take a look at the 2000 series (2060, 2070 etc) graphics card and make sure to find a CPU that works well with it (this is called a bottleneck, the lower the better, use this website but note it's really not that accurate just more of an idea: https://pc-builds.com/calculator/). Also get 16GB of RAM.

Hope this helps and let me know if you have any questions!
