This game is addicting. I'd love to see a rail system (for mine carts), electric fences, brighter indoor lights, and a helmet mod that adds a flashlight. Refueling my lantern is kind of annoying. Also, need more world bosses!
Tem, not sure if you've noticed, but you've got bone armour arms, so you're not going to get the set bonus for composite. There is a palisade walkway you can make. There are both Frags and explosive ammo.
After the rage mode last episode and you coming back with this level of effort it was cool. Tem, I gotta give you credit with coming outta the pit of frustration and you doing something like this episode is worth respect!
@@GunsNerdsandSteel I wonder if a detached Watchtower would work. Make a 2 wide bridge from the fort to the tower. Leave the last piece missing and have a ramp from the fort over the gap to drop back onto the bridge and the same from the tower side. AI should not see it as a viable path and you have an easy way to go both directions.
Your cracking issue is inside you only had pillars from the wall up. You did add extra pillars from the foundation up but you still need pillars in the ground on the corners of the foundation. This would allow you to do your platform without cracking without the need for the outside pillars.
I've heard that you can make multiple characters and share the same home. Then make each character focus on something so that you can cover all the points that you want to. Also you should make a ladder on each corner so there's plenty of backups.
Great video! I LOVE how you built your defences. This is an amazing design! That video is 2 months old so you might have learned about that already but you said that you have a tendency to fall. You can't fall if you crouch in that game. It was such a game changer for me when I learned about that! So, no need for railings in the future. Just hold the crtl key and you're safe.
when fighting bears rush them and then quickly to the side if you get really good at it bears pose no threat polar bears follow the same attack patterns
Good to see more Icarus and like yourself I am looking forward to more to the update for the contact device on all the open world maps. Cheers and enjoy your other videos also hope you and everyone else has an enjoyable holiday season.
Dude i just binge watched all 9 ep at same day it was so relaxing i stayed on my couch for whole day and watched all 9 ep at there now i have to wait for eps
How to overcomplicate a geyser 101 by Tem. Lol There are 'wood walkway fortifications" you can research right next to wood walls. They snap either high or low on the inside of your walls. Just make 5 walls , position like a pentagon with just a small gap to egress from. Place your spikes on walls then walkways and make it less complicated . Let your spikes take care of most of the waves and just keep repairing from the inside. Just some tips
I don't think it's overcomplicated. It was fun to make, looks good, and functions perfectly. What more could you ask for? Have you seen my 7 Days bases? Now THAT's overcomplicated lol
@GunsNerdsandSteel yeah man I love your content, one of the best but I get bored sometimes with how.much base building you do. I'm a dedicated follower though!
TAKE THE TIME TO REMAP YOUR BUTTONS. I don't know who set the default buttons, but there are a lot of changes that need to be made. The drop button is (or was for me) set to default on X. This is CRAZY, since that's directly in the middle of all the keys you need to press to play the game, and can be accidentally hit with no confirmation; you just drop what you're holding. Imagine you just dropping your weapon while trying to dodge in combat, and you get the idea. Another one I keep hitting is the ~ button, which opens some useless info when I'm trying to hit Tab to open my inventory. Both have been remapped, but the base setup is WAY too crowded.
At the ridge they keep getting hung up on you could make a simple tower climb up it and have better shots on them. maybe like 2 pillars a ladder and a single floor.
How do you get the metal/wood latter & railings that you used? They look like a reinforced version of the interior wood pieces & those would be perfect for my base. Are they just part of the vanilla tech tree?
Hey Tem. You might want to actually skin all the dead animals, as I believe you get a lot of XP from it - just don't take the stuff if you don't want it. Also, I think if a creatures not aggro'd, if you shoot them from stealth you get 2.5x sneak damage. Probably wouldn't work with the horde animals as they appear to start aggro'd, but useful for any rando's that wander in.
I bet taming some bears and wolfs and have a "guard" post around the area for killing/pulling the stuck once would work. You had bear cubs in this video, so if you where smart, you could have "tamed" them after killing mom, have a separate area to put them in before you kill of the last of the wave, you can get some kick ass animals that way I bet =)
Once you hit the level cap, you continue to get BLUEPRINT points every level. You no longer get SKILL points though, so be aware. Also, on the login screen when you're looking at your character before loading the game, you can respec up to 30 skill points for free, so if you invested in something you want to change, you can do that there. Further investment will require you to buy each point for a rather high price, so use your respec points carefully. You only get 30 free per *account*, not per character as it currently is.
It's a good game, only downside is that it's pay to play. "Want new map and red exotics? Buy the map and missions expansion." Terraria is a buy once and you get the game and mod launcher if you want.
@@GunsNerdsandSteel I bound it to the action that puts away whatever you’re holding, bound drop to H cause I would never hit that in the normal game actions.
Go to STEALTH to NOT FALL OFF. See how i did that? Stealth = No Fall Off edges. Also go back in to blue prints and check the walk ways for the palisade walls. Those are perfectly matched and part of fortification building.

OMG! I've been playing Icarus for over 50hrs and that Page up Page down to raise and lower buildable is a freaking gamechanger!

Try to burn the foliage around with a fire arrow or something, it clears stuff fast and if you keep the burnt trees they don't respawn. Good Luck!
Note for the future. The Foundry is really big. You might have to build it it's own home.
Wow okay, thanks for the heads up!
dude pls keep going with that series..imagine i didnt even know the game and after your first episode i saw them all and got the game...
That's the plan! I'm really looking forward to the operations coming soon
A ramp with a floor that is detached from the main structure will be ignored by the animals and you can jump to and from it to get in and out.
Seems like it would work, maybe next time!

Hmm, I think I did notice that toward the end when I rebuild the wood portion of the base and added those in, but good eye! I'm sure you're right!
lol..."Hold my Beer"...brilliant.
Awesome video as always.
Thx.
I've heard that you can make multiple characters and share the same home. Then make each character focus on something so that you can cover all the points that you want to. Also you should make a ladder on each corner so there's plenty of backups.
Loving seeing the Moa in there. If the developers throw a Haast Eagle in there as well... wow. Keep up the great content GNS
An eagle would be game-changing. I have 0 interest in walking to the other end of the map.
There is a display on the condenser device, which shows the actual progress
There are key binds to unlock position and move bulding pices up and down. So you can have half beems and roof overhangs.

Finish the guantlets!!

Alterations bench is a must.
Always a good day when your in Icarus =) You were in my feed.
You can use a torch to intentionally set ground cover on fire. Just as a tip for clearing areas out. It will also damage wildlife in the fire.
Dude i just binge watched all 9 ep at same day it was so relaxing i stayed on my couch for whole day and watched all 9 ep at there now i have to wait for eps
Just a tip you can turn the pillars into half if you hit them with your pick I think.
as long as you keep leveling you will gain enough blueprint points to learn everything.
But yes be smart about purchases.
If you go around the condenser there is a little monitor where you can see the progress of the wave.
Ah I see, I'll have to see if I can squish down there next time to see it
You def encourage me to play this game. The geyser base was a win!
I’ve never done the geysers yet but after this video, this is what I’m going to build for it :)
gns, when you reach max level you still level up, gaining blueprint points
We wanted to see, "Ride the Bear"! 😁
Thanks for the icarus vid! I've been waiting for it 🎉
just binged the series, hope to see some more after the updates :) great vids
Good idea to build the hoard base

And pretty sure you can make a basic ladder from your inventory

This game looks like it could be a contender for a top survival game. Thoughts?
Thank you for the videos your a rockstar! 🎉
I wish ASA had the same resource gathering system that Icarus does. It's a lot cleaner.
Thatch and wood ladders are made in your inventory.
I had no interest in this game except for watching your videos, until watching this and Ark, now I want to try out the base building
Bro that crossbow prob slaps
Loving the Icarus series!!
🥃👏
Yes!!!!!!! Another video
How do you get the metal/wood latter & railings that you used? They look like a reinforced version of the interior wood pieces & those would be perfect for my base. Are they just part of the vanilla tech tree?
You have progress bar on side of Vapor Condenser and also Wave count
Valheim next, please!
You need to add the pillars all the way from the ground. You only have them in the ground and then from the top of the cube.
he does appear to realize this at about 17:59 but doesn't say anything.
Oh, and speaking of which, can you please start a District Zero mod series?
As a sci-fi fan, I really want to enjoy District Zero but still doesn't feel complete enough for a series.
What are your pc specs? your game runs so good, while having good fps
Hi, what is your mods list for 7DTD? I'm having trouble getting my mods working together.
I had to change the binding on Q.
Can someone tell me which gamemode he is playing in this playthrough ? Thank you
Do I need a dlc ? Or just the base game?
For a half pillar can't u sink the full one
Isn't it beneficial to have the animals stuck on rocks? Or do you need to kill them?
the wave wont progress unless their all dead. makes him have to hunt then manually
Can you tame fighter animals like bear ?
Hey Tem. You might want to actually skin all the dead animals, as I believe you get a lot of XP from it - just don't take the stuff if you don't want it.

i need ur ark series dude
ep.11 x2?
Whoops thank you!
YUP, rebound that Q button after 10 minutes of playing Icarus. That is the dumbest keybind of all time, IMO.
Good call, I need to look into that

I'm finding your voice audio quiet compared to game audio volume.

What's with the attitude? Or am I reading this wrong?
Not 7 days
And that's fine. A variety of games is nice.
Yep. so far i know the bleu prints you stil gonna get them after the max level you can reach. The knowlegde points not there is a limmit.
