Icarus has dropped its weekly update today, Icarus week 58: v1.2.33.106383 update for January 13, 2023, and we have compiled the full list of changes. According to RocketWerkz, this update will introduce a new mission: REMNANT: Extraction. In the new mission, players will get the chance to explore multiple exotic deposits across the map. REMNANT will provide multiple outcomes in a dynamic environment, perfect for new players or exotic farmers. Without further ado, let’s look at the official patch notes for Icarus week 58: v1.2.33.106383 update.
Icarus Week 58: v1.2.33.106383 Update Patch Notes
New Mission – REMNANT: Extraction
This week, we’re bringing you a new mission, REMNANT: Extraction.
Similar to the introductory missions DEEP VEIN and PAYDAY, REMNANT guides players to place several radars in various locations to find, extract and launch exotics into orbit.
REMNANT takes place on Styx, which has a much higher saturation of exotic deposits on the map, so the mission has a wide variety of outcomes.
Lines from the radars will point players to different exotic deposits with varying distances and allow them to learn the mechanics in a more dynamic environment with more paths to choose from.
About the Mission
REMNANT: Extraction
- OPERATOR: UDA
- BIOME: The Great River
- BACKGROUND: UDA advises additional prospector training with advanced scanning techniques after clearing the area of easily found exotic deposits
- MISSION: Follow UDA radar procedure, locate and extract exotics, deliver exotics to orbit
- TERMS: All extraction equipment and materials are to be provided by the Contractor
Exotic Extraction Balance
- We’re making a change to exotic extract;
- unifying the drill slot count across biomes
- And increasing relative mining speed to provide a balance.
- All three biomes (forest, arctic and desert) will now have two extractors,
- There’s a reduction of forests from three to two to balance the reduction. Each extractor will extract exotics 50% faster.
- This feature will provide a better situation for the single-player session where players may not want to craft multiple extractors.
- The forest biome will be reduced to only having two extractors in line with the arctic and desert biomes. However, these 2 extractors will be as effective as the previous 3 allowed in the forest biome.
Bug Fixes
We’re addressing a range of bugs to kick off 2023. While you’ll find others in our detailed change log, we wanted to address these three in particular:
- Fixed a bug where if a client holds a shield and a one-handed weapon, the UI doesn’t show the shield highlighted
- Fixed an issue where Dropships & Dynamic missions can trigger outside the playable area by implementing a new ‘Bounds Mask.’
- Before writing to Character/Profile/Prospect data, temporary backups of original files are created as safeguards in case of an unexpected shutdown or game crash during the saving process. Save file restore occurs on the initial application load.
