Hey there!

We have had in-studio discussions around renaming it "supporters" pack, yes. No definitive answer there just yet.

We acknowledge we should have added more value to the "deluxe" edition originally. Hopefully we come to a consensus soon on whether we will implement such changes.

In the mean time, thanks for your pre-order! Only one week until the beta, let us know what you think once you start playing!

Right!

From launch, you can access our "server browser" and join any games that prospectors have open (unless their capacity is full).

I hope this answers your question! And don't worry about your english :)

So you’ve got Icarus on pre-order? Here’s what you need to know!
Everyone who has pre-ordered Icarus on Steam will gain access to our Beta Weekends!

The Icarus Beta app will appear in your Steam Library for you to download once the first weekend goes live.

Which timezone are the Beta Weekends being based in?
Pacific Daylight Time (US) 5pm Fridays through to 10pm Sundays This means that each Beta Weekend will span across a period of three days. We wish to reach and accommodate as many time zones as possible! If you try to play Icarus outside these times, you’ll see a message explaining that our servers are switched off - in which case, wait and come back for the next scheduled Beta Weekend.

For real-time updates and when you can play, please follow our Twitter ... Read more

In order to play Icarus, either alone or with your friends, you all need to have bought the base game.

You're welcome!

So how in-depth is this essential part of survival?

What effects will lack of nutrition/hydration have on the character or character skills?

Will meat need to be cooked?
Will water need to be purified?
Will injuries need to be treated with more detail then simply using a "medi-pack?"

Any insight as to how deep survival goes would be much appreciated.
We have a lot of Steam Posts on the way, yet to be written, including Buffs, Debuffs, Elemental effects and what have you!

We are an independent studio and have a small team. Currently we can only pump out maybe 2 Steam posts a week with the current workload.

Thanks for understanding :)

Or is it just when the beta will get patched
You will only be able to play Icarus during our Beta Weekends. We have a steam post coming shortly, explaining in more detail :)

We're organising for this to be extended 7 days beyond our launch date as promised. However, it seems our contacts at Steam/Valve are OOO so there might be a slight period of the sale not being there before it's implemented again.

Originally posted by luisito10: I have a question before buying the game, you can only play with friends, people that you invite or you can join to play in games with strangers looking for something that is missing A member, thank you. ps: I have friends on steam but they don't like this type of game that's why I would have a limit when it comes to playing
Hi there!

You can always play by yourself, Icarus is designed to be enjoyed playing solo OR with a group of friends :)

While it's true that business practices these days in gaming can leave a lot to be desired, I've been really impressed with how transparent and interactive the community has been, both in leadership and with peers! Many questions and concerns can be directly addressed there. While only time can tell ultimately what happens, it's worth a shot! :k8happy:
Thank you very much for your feedback!

Have you pre-ordered the game? See how it runs on our first beta weekend and let us know!
