So adorable an hour in and hasn't noticed MISSION OBJECTIVES hehe. "Such a Rust-afarian behbeey". EDIT: incredible he knows to build a doorway not a wall 1:04:30 but not to just literally hide under a rock. A rust sized dent in carved out a boulder should protect the boney hero.
Some Pro Tips for the game to any new players: 1- Thatch is garbage. You can wait till you get wood to build. If a storm comes and you haven't gotten wood building parts unlocked just hollow out a large rock and stay in it for a short time. 2- If the lightning catches anything on fire... Log out and back in. It will put everything out! 3- Foods give buffs! Good starter food is watermellon, barries and fish chunks! All easy to get right away and give decent buffs. Also DRYING RACK! It keeps your meat fresher longer. 4- Start with the missions if you can. It introduces you to the game and can give you the in game money you need to buy the starter equipment in game! 5- As soon as you can learn medical stuff to heal with! It helps when starting out in caves and fighting animals. 6- The moment you can learn stone buildings! You will need iron so you will need a forge and the pick to mine iron asap! Stone doesn't degrade nearly as fast as wood and can servive most storms without any damage! 7- If you can carry an animal home to skin DO SO! Or carry a camp fire with you. Skinning next to a campfire will give you bonus XP. lastly- Bild next to or even over any river that looks like the water is running. You can fish from your home for good food AND mid game you can build water wheels! Then you have easy electricty right where you are.
3 sounds like exploiting.. This is most likely not how you are supposed to play the game. But of course in the end its up to you how you want to play in a singleplayer game.
@@tarakivu8861 LoL...I think you mean 2. Kinda is ya. TBH it's not a built in game mechanic but works non the less. The game has lightning rods you can make but till then the way everything around you or large swoths of the game being burnt out sucks. It can take that picturess scene and brake it for the rest of the game.
you might already know this , but if you get caught in a storm , you can find a rock outcrop and dig a cave to hide in. saves time and resources. just make sure you are deep enough from the opening to avoid exposure!
This should be the top comment like, pinned to the top 😂 Yoda hovels are definitely thee. Best thing for storms and building up resources to build a house at the beginning!
ya that fact is what made me look into this game never thought of it as rustlike but clearly there is mechanic overlay. Not sure about Icarus PvP but rust will put rockhiding in their deepmining update but never fix hors or triangle splash;]
I honestly really enjoyed watching this. I do like longer videos, anything 45min or more. Glad to see you branching out to other content. Rust is a bit too overplayed. Looking forward to more of Icarus!
Lets go brit, i really wanted you to do more gameplay of this. glad you found something you like that fits the channel outside of rust. :) You should def try more survival games, or stick with Icarus for a bit.
The nice thing about icarus it that u can keep ur character with all the unlocked skills, lvl and talents even if u restart. It would be nice if u ever do another icarus vid to start with everything unlocked for a late game brand new start. BTW... - If u want ur base to show on the map u need a beacon. I think it's a T3 or T4 item. What i do to get 1 for free i accept the tower building mission (u need to build a contact device or smt named like that) and they give u one to place, and if u build the tower, place the beacon and complete the mission u can actually take it back with u and keep it. - Build an Oxidyzer. It's waaaaay better than using raw oxite. - If u crouch and aim the wolf on its head b4 it notices u it's always 1 shot (it shows the animation. idk if u need a perk or not for that but i think its not needed). - Never drink water on the ice biome as u will freeze. - Iron one, copper ... only show up on caves or on those ore deposits on the ground.
lets goo i have been waiting for this video since you did your last video about trying out different rust like games and your finally playing it :) i'm hela excited for this
Glad to see your touching on this. I just started playing a month ago and it is one of the best PVE games out there in my opinion. Once it goes full on large servers I’d bet it will take rust out
Never have I ever wanted to jump into someone's game more than now 😅 Brit this is awesome! You can play this with other people if you didn't already know, and the building can get out of hand i built a base in the side of a cliff and got lost with the taxidermy tool for a while and don't even get me started on the fishing and keeping animals 🤣
even if you dont finish the video today, make sure to give Brit some interaction on here if you appreciate the expansion of content. Otherwise, he has no reason to do it again.
Yeahhhhh brit love it my bro so glad u played this. I started watching u cos u did different rust content. I'm all for u branching out trying new games. Much love from nz keep up the good work 👏
I just finished watching the video and I absolutely love it. I am really excited for the next video that you will drop and will be waiting eagerly for it :) I even stayed for the 4 minuets of black screen at the end 🙂🙂
Subscribed 💯 wouldn’t have heard about this game if it weren’t for the video you just did 2 weeks back Brit. Hoping to see some more long style Icarus content! 💪
great video tbh i have never heard of this game until i watched your other video about playing games like rust lol. i would love a series tbh. great videos btw keep up the great content.
im glad you found this game, i bought all dlcs from the moment i played it first time, the game can goes pretty hard on you sometimes... love the games and mission stories
Love this game and absolutely love watching you playing it. Please make a series out of it! I wanna see you reaching the point where you'll have to face those boss! Keep it up Brit! Always love your content! ❤
Who else watched from start to end in a single sitting XD I normally couldn't watch a 3.5 hour video, such as rust for example (yes, even if it was a Wiljum episode lol) But I love Icarus, and getting to just vibe to the wilderness and Brit experiencing everything for the first time was certainly a special occasion Can't wait for the next episode in this series!
I don't know why this game isn't talked about more, it's one of the best survival games ever made. They have weekly updates since launch. Please make more videos on this. You can make in a complete series because every time you start a new mission you have to make a new base. Also with the expansions you can make a series that goes on for months and months. You never know even some missions you could play with other people because this game is a lot of fun with friends too.
im not even an hour in and im loving it. im yelling at my screen, im laughing, my son was crackin up watching. Trying to refrain from ruining stuff for you because learning is half the fun. but a couple small tips that make a big difference. cook your veggies (pumpkin/corn/carrots) and Fruits like watermelon and berries will help with hydration in a pinch. I absolutely love playing this game with friends. I hope you enjoy it as much as we do. Would love to see a series on this. Thank you for checking it out!
Also bandages arent giving you health back like you may think. They just stop you from bleeding. Which gets rid of the debuff but doesnt actually heal you. Cooked meat will heal you pretty fast. Id keep a stack on you for that. Each cooked/dried food gives different buffs to health/stamina. The special meats give big buffs.
It took me all day but I did finally finish this vid. About 2 hours is a good cut off in my opinion, this is coming from someone that likes the longer videos. There were a couple times it seemed could have been cut out. Overall great vid, love what you do. (Still patiently waiting for the PVE server!)
“The reason there is no music is so you can get fully immersed!” *ambient music instantly starts in the background* haha Brit is so bad at any game he plays it’s amazing lol keep up the dope vids mate
No music and barely edited? Ah yes give me that raw Brit! HAHA I love Icarus, it's a cool game and extremely active dev team. They have updated every single week since they launched without fail, much like Rust. Based on the title I'm thinking you're calling every survival game Rust-like lol. Honestly I think you would like Soulmask, you seem to love your survivals and it adds automation into the mix and a big map to explore. Thanks for the vid Brit!
It's taken me a few days to watch the whole thing, I made it my own personal mini series lol. But seeing you play it through to end game would be absolutely incredible and we're all here for it!
I just did the same thing in one day to break up my house choirs. I was thinking the same about seeing it to the end. This is the most relaxed I have ever herd Brit. I know how hard editing is if you do not have time. I would rather have this content then super edited content. It is like watching a movie!
Keep up the content brit i enjoy pve rust and this game looks way better i might have to go and play it i have been enjoying all your diffrent content lately so pleaae do keep it up and i hope you do more videos on this game
Hahaha yup our Brit is a noob :). having played this game for some time I am still highly amused at the same mistakes first timers do over and over, small suggestion Brit, 1 keep posting Icarus, 2 stop and think what you are going to do, 3 look at your map more often, your compas at the top of the screen will show you your lander so you can more easily get your bearings, and lastly 4 DONT DIE LOL
@@EyesOn-Me Im sure Brit will get better with his ability on Rust which I followed for quite some time, It remains only for me to keep counting the number of times he dies before he becomes aware of his surroundings lol
Loved this video please play more of it. But if I'm not mistaking when u out farming and a storm comes in you can hollow out stone to hide in until storm is gone I believe I seen someone else who was playing did this. Be worth to check out lol.
Yo if you gonna keep playing Icarus here are some tips: you can hide from storms in a rock if u mine a hole in it from the side bandage doesnt heal you, only removes debuffs from cuts(was crying inside seeing you use so much of them) Love the video! Rust sucks if you dont mix it up with other games
If you are out and about, and a storm comes up, you can hollow out a large rock and crouch into it for shelter. Better than scrambling to build a shelter that keeps falling apart.
i am 100% down to see you branch out to other games and would be stoked to see an Icarus series. Being one of my all time favorite games next to Valheim it has grown bigger then my potato can handle.
I have been watching alot of rust lately and this was nice to watch cause it was similar in a few ways but so different, i want to see more so if you would that will be amazing
Rust intrigues me, but I really only scratched the surface of it. The PVP isnt what I want. PVE servers were a lot better, but still not quite it. Holy shit, THIS game looks perfect! Yes, I watched the whole 3 hours. Extreme amounts of farming/gathering that would make other people cry is where I thrive. I share, and likely exceed the enthusiasm you showed here. I will be seeking more videos.
After watching this game for hours in this video, the thing that freaks me out the most is the fact that wolves are always looking at you. It's creepy as shit!
Finds horse pig friend, names him Lee, cuts down trees with Lee by his side, mentions the fact that Lee could get hurt and he should bring Lee home, doesn't bring Lee home, fells a tree during conversation of Lee's safety, tree lands on Lee, Brit is sad but instantly pulls out the knife to harvest Lee while grieving. This is content you just can't get anywhere else
Broooo please play this more! This is absolutely insane.. idk if you have another channel that you play other games on.. but an ICARUS channel maybe in the future..
