100+ Icarus Tips & Tricks to SURVIVE! Icarus Beginners Guide! Icarus First Cohort & Styx

Great video!! Thanks for all the tips. It's a bit hard at first but I haven't played a game this fun in a while. Keep up the good work!

best tips out there.

This will definitely save me some time on my first play though. Thanks for the tips.

Is it possible to avoid killing animals for food and instead eat potatoes and just stun animals that attack as aggressors like bears?

Awesome video, thank you. Stupid question but, is it a dumb idea to play open world on Olympus and settle early on? I don't really know how to progress as a beginner. Do I settle in a little stone house - go to the main menu and do missions and then return to my open world base at times, or what do I do? Should I prioritize missions on my open world? Would love some tips, so many options and I feel stunned haha. Cheers, subbed!

TLDR: Should I play using the short range radio or do regular missions for the best experience?

Next level effort put into this. Thanks!

Thank you so much for this video. I'm very new to this wonderful but at times overwhelming game and you've really helped. I'm definitely subbed now and ready to devour all your Icarus content. Plus your voice is rather wonderful to listen to 😉 Many thanks from the UK 🇬🇧

Another thing to add, that was missed... remove your water canteen from your suit if you're in the winter biome, with it in your suit, it increases your risk getting frost bite

The wood to sticks recipe is pretty important if you are landing/basing in the desert regions. Sticks can be hard to come by there with so few bushes. Luckily, there is now a wood to sap recipe, so you no longer need to pre-process wood to make sap for fuel, epoxy, and concrete

Holy crap, just a few too many adds my dude. I’m 14 mins in and I’ve been hit 3-4 times with ads.

I just got back into Icarus. This game has come a long way since I last played which is good to see cuz the game is great. Thank you for all these tips there were some I had no idea existed so it was a huge help

I love how your gonna get pneumonia but your breathing through basically a scuba system

Fast way to "appdata\local\icarus" > press windowskey + R type/copy %LOCALAPPDATA%\icarus and click "ok"

%appdata% on searchbar. faster to find it

Please update for latest changes when you get a chance!

Walking in/out of caves doesnt do what you think it does. Ya, it resets the timer, it also resets the chance of your character to get pneumonia. I've had times where I've walked into a cave for first time and 5 seconds after i get the lung debuff. It's all based on 'chance', not the timer. The timer is just there to give you an eye about the cave debuff. Ive also been through caves and mined it all before getting pneumonia. Its all "Chance".

No one going to mention the food timers in the 100,000's? what tip or trick is that?

I hate it when people give you "tips" but it's just a tutorial to keys or mechanics. that's not a tip!

Great video. I've been playing Icarus since launch, but I wanted to watch it anyway, just in case you had info/tips I didn't know yet. Sure enough, there were a couple of things.
An additional tip: crouch and sprint toggles in the settings are great to use. They may take a bit to get used to, but they can make traversing the world easier.

The easiest was to get to app data is to type %appdata% in the file explorer address bar

Also, in your bear attack example, Aiming does more damage, never flat shoot if you can help it.

soft meat = veal ... yum

Thank you for compiling all of these useful tips! Must have taken a very long time to do so. I learned a lot!

Degragate!! Best bit! ;)

This has been invaluable. Thank you so much for making this content ☺️

This video helped me a TON

hey what up new to the channel instant sub from me keep up the good work

u can also jump crouch to get a target higher up or behind something the 2.5x multiplier still counts

Lol recording drunk again

Thank you for all the info !

Just started playing the game got ambitious and built a huge wood house that took me hours. Accidentally stepped on my campfire outside and burned the whole thing down 😂

That emergency heat tip was an eye opener! Thanks a lot. Btw, adding onto that stack splitting. Holding Alt instead of Shift will allow you to pull a single piece out of the stack if you want to just grab a few pieces of food or material to make whatever you want or take on a trip.

Nice work! Just getting back into the game after about a year off and there are lots of good tips in here. Thanks!

how to normal arow update bunus stat please mision name ?

I think you do great content keep up the good work ❤

This entire video could've been 15 min but the 25% completely useless "tips" and the amount of time you spent fumbling through your words made it needlessly long. Sometimes you were very loud and confident and I'd say practice that more!! Too much time was spent of you mumbling and your mic barely even being able to pick your voice up.

Too many commercials. Unless it's just me I am getting them every three mins. Good info though but I stopped watching due to the commercials.

Can you map actions to your mouse button's as well ?

We need more talent points!

Just came back to icarus with a friend. Played it when it was early releaase. There aernt many mods, but the ones that include increased perk pts and blueprints per level that allow you to get everything by max level are making a big difference to reducing the grind. And theres a mod that makes the workshop items actually worth the time to get them.
Google icarus nexus for the mods i used from nexus mods. The game was made mod friendly

Great vid full of interesting and full illustrated tips. How many hours do u have into Icarus ?

I'm a beginner with Icarus. How do I retain items? like, i never see anything in the "my Items" section after a completed mission. I always seem to start over again.

You can actually tame animals with just a bed, you don't need food or water troughs.

thank!

AWESOME !!! many thanks good people :)

Is there some way to speed up gathering (outside talents) to actually get the materials to build the T4 stuff? Looks like it takes over 250 electronics just to get a basic build up to even run a bloody furnace. Plus all of the stuff for charging powr packs. How is T4 even viable in missions?

Excellent job...one of the best "tips" videos I've ever seen. Thank you!
