I have a small question which in my honest opinion is a big issue for me. Will there be an update soon, which will address the issue with the non-replenishable trees?

Here comes a storm.. I have lightning rods around and yet, gzzhf and the trees are on fire..
Even after putting the fire out, it still burns a good number of trees. Don't get me wrong, I love the idea of natural disasters in sandbox games and I'm not concerned about the lost usable lumber. I hate that it destroys the aesthetics and the cozy look of the house.
As an open-world survival sandbox game, it really needs that option to plant/regrow trees.

Please consider this or if not, share how the lightnings can be drawn to the rods, rather than the trees.
Thank you.

I wish they would fix the GPU memory leak that or this game needs over 12GB of VRAM....

Can Missions be played in offline Singleplayer mode?

Custom server settings when? Admin commands when?

Your weekly updates are great. I look forward to it every week. I'm incredibly excited for the Fishing Update. I hope in the future the whole craft system will be more complex and the environmental influences and survival elements will be expanded and the weather will change gradually and not suddently. it would be great to encorporate radioactive materials, with various protective suits, radioactive zones, a buildable laboratory in which the raw materials can then be produced or created, such as weapons, reactors, etc. Anyway, thanks for the great work. Icarus is one of my favorite game.

This has already, and is currently happening. Because they haven't listened to the community, and because they released a beta as 1.0, they now hover around the 1500 player avg mark. Down from 50,000+ at release.

I really loved this game for the first few hundred hours I put into it (been here since the release) but the FPS drops, stutter, and general weekly update that contains no significant performance improvements is getting old. It's been 75 weeks. Small studio or not, that's too long for a game that was released as a 1.0 to fix major issues.

I run a Ryzen 9 3950x, 64GB 3400mhz ram, and a 3090. I still get 10-20 FPS in my open world base, even with the lowest gfx settings. There is literally no difference in performance from Low to Ultra. It's just not fun anymore because instead of playing the game, I'm too distracted by the stutter. It's always fun to drop from 60 FPS to 15 while fighting Polar Bears or Komodos, right?? How about just running through the map and entering a new "area?" Ever been in multiplayer and one player goes to a different part of the map? Always fun, right?

Instead of fixing the performance and optimization, the complete waste of time to tech up to T4 anywhere but Open World, and implementing true Open World, we got more seeds and food recipes, and unreal pre-packaged garbage. The devs actively fought to implement the open world we have now (if you can call it that) because the community didn't like their idea of a session based survival game as much as the devs had hoped, and they didn't want to build "that game."

So now we are here. 75 weeks later, and the comments are still the same. We have a survival game that has an unplayable open world, especially in multi-player (FPS / desyncs / freezes). The game was so untested and buggy they ended up giving away DLC and angering their Supporter Edition customers even more. And in the most "please don't leave" move I've ever seen, they open up the ability to edit your character, making the workshop and overall game objectives obsolete--not because they wanted people to cheat, but to give them a way around the game destroying characters, not giving rewards, etc). But hey, fishing is almost implemented in an Alpha version for us to test for them, right?

Fix the FPS issues. Fix the Open World Issues. Fix the multiplayer issues. Stop adding things that add to your bug count (like more missions that don't end correctly).

How many thousands of players do you think would come back if they could play with a fairly constant FPS rate?

Yeah can't disagree with you. It's another game where they add new stuff instead of finishing/fixing/balancing what is already in the game. I don't get the approach but I believe it's something like the way the Romans held games (new stuff) while the empire burned (poor performance and unbalanced gameplay).

But hey, maybe if we wait long enough a game ready for release will emerge. I'm in no hurry to play till then. But keeping an eye just in case.

I totally agree with you, the performence is utterly trash in open world. Lagging etc just how you explain. It is really bad they dont focus to fix this already!

the game has always been trash....they just keep selling you Doctored up pictures of thier game - they use Photoshop to do it

My wife and I just got back into this after about a year off and WOW what a time to come back! So many great additions we are having a ton of fun!!
