Surviving Icarus’ harsh planet can usually be achieved with a fair amount of trial and error alongside some patience but, regardless if you’re a seasoned explorer or not, seeing the game stuck showing the Connecting to Content Server message can leave you feeling helpless.
Icarus’ Connecting to Content Server message reared its ugly head as soon as the game launched, preventing players from starting missions.
Like in the case of other survival games, playing alongside friends can make harvesting, building, and completing objectives much quicker and more enjoyable. Unresponsive servers can, however, put a swift stop to your attempts at playing.
Icarus’ Connecting to Content Server message seems to pop up when the game’s servers are having trouble letting people in.
This can likely be caused by a large influx of players, as was the case on launch day, but there’s a chance that other issues might place it on your screen just as you’re trying your hand at fighting bears and poisonous worms.
Unfortunately, this hurdle doesn’t seem to have a fix on the player’s end, which is often the case with any server-related problems in online games. This means that if you’re encountering it, you only have two options.
On the one hand, you could wait, hoping that you’ll eventually make it in, although there’s no guarantee that you’ll somehow slip through the cracks.
On the other, you might want to hold onto your sanity by checking the game’s server status and looking for official word on the matter from the developer, since it is the only one that can actually fix the issue.
Icarus’ Connecting to Content Server message will, hopefully, not be all that regular an occurrence but, if it does show up again, you now know what can (or cannot) be done about it. For more help with the game, drop by our guides on steel, iron ore locations, and max level.
