This game looks very amazing,and I can not wait to try it out.
If you ask me, it looks like it will be even better than Minecraft! The boss monsters look interesting, and so do a lot of the utilities. I'd love to climb up a wall like Spiderman using vines. :D
This looks so awesome. And due to the more simple nature of it, my computer will be able to handle it! :D
That looks sweet! I had some ideas for a game slightly similar to that a while back. Definitely gonna have to give that a try when its available.
Oh yes, I will be buying that.

I saw this post and in my brain I thought "Click the like button, click the like button, click the like button." Lol..
Looks like fun ;D
Finally a minecraft themed game that isn't a ripoff! And better yet, it is a platformer! Looks great too, nice style, will have on my wishlist.
Looks very interesting. Does anyone know what it is being created with?

.NET
Blue just confirmed it will be coming out in June. http://twitter.com/#!/Terraria_Blue (http://twitter.com/#!/Terraria_Blue)
I will get this game for sure.
Definably looking forward to this game! I'll buy it for sure!
I will most definitely get this game for my birthday, looks absolutely incredible. :D
Looks very nice. I'd like to try this when it comes out since I don't have the required specs to run minecraft at an acceptable FPS. :)
Also, think about expeditions in this game! Would you love to gather a party and explore the underworld, or perhaps defeat the Eater of Worlds? Or you can explore caves Minecraft style!
I really love this game, I would love to experience it right now haha. Looks so damn fun..
Unlike pretty much everyone else in the topic, it doesn't appeal to me very much. Probably won't play it. I don't really know what it is that makes me not like it though. :-X
Looks like something i would like to try. Thanks for the heads up.
I really can't wait till it comes out. I really want to try it out. I still think it's better then minecraft, not that they are the same game or anything, just to me, it looks funner.

Let it be known that THIS IS GOING TO BE THE REST OF MY !@#$ING SUMMER VACATION. Just, THIS GAME. THIS GAME THIS GAME THIS GAME THIS GAME THIS GAME.
Seriously, words cannot describe how much !@#$ing time I am going to DUMP INTO THIS MASTERPIECE.
After watching a few lets plays, this game is impressive, and with a sandbox as well as the possibilities it already has, it'll probably be the game i'll actually be playing for some time.
Very nice.
I don't know about you guys, but I'm playing it right now..

Seeing as it is an old version, I think it would just spoil the experience when the full thing comes out. :)
Not to mention, I find it in poor taste to nab something from the developers before they have released it themselves, without paying them. :/

Haha, you didn't upset me, nor do you have to delete it. It is your choice after all. I'm just saying I wouldn't do it, as I feel it is harmful to the developers. Course, you can always buy it when it comes out in a couple days. :)

You really have to ask? It's illegal for one. But more importantly it's insulting to the developers, particularly since it's a small and seemingly new company.
I was playing it a bit before too, around a week ago. I played for around an hour and felt it'd be better for me to wait for the release to enjoy it the way the developers meant it to be the first time you play it.

Yeah, the character creation contains edits of Bartz.
The copied art is just placeholders - supposedly they hired an artist and there will be brand new art for the characters upon release.
I pirated the leaked copy too, but before you start yelling pirate and such xD.
I am buying it tommorow, as long as i dont need the money for anything. I did the same thing for minecraft too i downloaded a old version and played then bought it xD
A word of advice: Start off making a small world (it gets ridiculous in large worlds) and build a shelter above ground >_<. I did exactly what krele did, I'm buying my legit copy tomorrow!! :)
New trailer
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w7uOhFTrrq0&feature=youtu.be
I'm going to go ahead and request that you guys please stop talking about your stolen copies here. This is not the place to discuss illegal matters such as that, and this site certainly doesn't support them.
Welp, Terraria's coming out tomorrow (or, rather, TODAY, but the fact that it's 1 AM right now isn't really going to help) and I think now I should probably drop the question:
Considering online play will be handled in the way of all players connect to a server using client programs, who's gonna be hosting? Now that the actual fun's gonna start, there's probably going to be no doubt in my mind we're going to assemble a little SO Terraria-playing group here, much like we had for Minecraft.
Yeah... I don't really like the new armor sprites that much. They look bland.
The actual characters are okay, but they could be better. I wish they could use the sprites from FF still. :x
But then again, they were rushing to get this game out for an early release, so I'm sure they'll update the sprites if there is enough people talking about it.
@Snakeman: Good question. Did you read the "early release considerations" thread? It mentions a current limit of 8 players concurrently, though he mentions they will work to allow even more. (http://terrariaonline.com/threads/early-release-considerations.3261/ (http://terrariaonline.com/threads/early-release-considerations.3261/))
From what I know, when you have a character played in single player, all the stuff in the inventory gets transferred over when you are playing online with others, whether it be playing on their server, or your own hosted server. Not to mention your stuff also gets transferred over when you start a new world.
The new sprites are ok, but they definitely could use improvement color wise, and probably could be refined a bit.
Anyways, I really can't wait for the release.
I doubt I'll be able to reliably host a dedicated server as I do not have a dedicated box using Windows as its primary OS, unless there's some real crafty ways of getting it to run without steam... on Linux...
Well we recently upgraded our internet to 50mbs download and 10mbs upload, so I may attempt to host a server. We shall see how it goes.

Would it be possible for me to be gifted one? I was fully intending on buying it today immediately, but due to me having to spend all of my money on a school-related event, I'm not able to at the moment.
EDIT: If not, it's perfectly fine; I'll get it later anyway.
Wow, something similar happened to me. Except i had to give my money to my mom, for something school related for my sister. I hope scotty still has 2 left, maybe he will give me and you one
Uhh...any way to PAUSE?
If Scotty's giveaway is still up for grabs, I take one of those copies too.
Do we need Steam for it?
So far I can tell that there is no way at all to pause the game. This is stupid. <.<
I gave up on trying to buy it lmfao. >_< So I'm out ten bucks and got nothing for it....fml.
D: im trying to play multiplayer but Idk a server does anyone have a good one I could join?? the IP?
Someone needs to start a server. I can port forward, but due to my mac being 2-sided and that I switch between the sides constantly I can't host a 24/7 server.

Yeah, I have one. Was asking if you needed it to receive the game.
I dont think you need a steam acc idk maybe but it makes it easier so can somone host a server 24/7? and 11clock even if its not 24/7 i still want to play on it D:
...I'm starting to not like this game.
If you quit and come back, you reappear at the spawn point and not where you last were. I just learned the hard way by quiting in my house at night and reloading the world.

Thats why you should have built your house where your spawn is :P
exactly! and when you get 10 stars how do you use them to increase mana?
I discovered how to pause effectively! Just deselect the game (if in windowed mode). :)
I plan on building a shelter at the spawn. A very small one, but one that will work for coming back on at night.
11clock you should start a server :/
Probably. I guess I'll post here when I turn on the server.
Anyways, look what landed right next to my house on Night 2!

Shall I risk it? It's still there.
EDIT: Got it and died. Discovered that you lose some money when you die. You can recollect the money from where you died.
@ 11clock THEY ARE VERY COMMON. and host now please
They are extremely common. I had 3 land on my roof in 5 seconds. Don't get hit by them btw. Instant death.

The Terraria wiki would probably answer all of your questions.
Found an underground temple! It was made of gold brick (and gold brick walls) and had a chest with a +10% movement speed and a few torches, but it's the gold bricks is that I'm talkin' about! :D
If anybody is dodging those damnable hornets in the underground jungle areas, look around for one of these! They'll have a torch inside so you can see 'em through the walls.
I got back down there and I killed one and apperently there fire imps! they are really annoying!
I absolutely am in love with this game!!!

Alls you needs to do is equipt the mana crystals into your hot bar and eat em like a mushroom
To use mana you need to have either a "wand" of some sort, or if you find the dungeon and find a blue book you can use mana to throw water balls at them. Mana does deminish over time so use your mana wisely
Protip: Save your gemstones! 10 of any kind will get you a phaseblade of any color of your choosing, along with if you also have 20 meteorite bars.
Speaking of phaseblades, got me a green one. And holy dicks, 21 base damage? I'll take that, yes, thank you. Anyways, brb raping everything.
I've built a whole crap load of houses and my NPC's won't spawn, its depressing.
anyone have a server up??
And BOOM DOWN GOES EYE OF CTHULHU.
If I could drop any tips to anybody preparing to take on the behemoth, it's this:
Have an amazing bow (Silver or gold should do the trick.)
Have an awesome sword (I had my bitchin' green lightsaber but you could probably pull it off with a gold broadsword.)
Have amazing armor (I was sporting Gold Greaves, Iron Chainmail, and Cobalt Helm (Which is super-rare, don't try to go after this. Overall, a gold armor set should do.)
Have LOTS OF ARROWS (Make 'em flaming if you want, but the more the better.)
Have LOTS OF HEALING POTIONS (Pack a good 10-15 lesser healing potions and you should be good.)
Anyways, yeah. The bastard drops a lot of elusive drops, including the better-than-gold Demonite ore. ;D
Its also good to have shurakins :P My glass house is nearly complete!!
Have you tried doing what the tutorial guide says? it works for me..;o
i got me some of that demonite ore from cthulu, how many bars do i need to make armour with it?
So now that all the greedy impatient peeps who asked for a free key and then when they realized it wasn't coming immediately decided NOT to be greedy and bought it for themselves with their own ten dollars they clearly had but didn't want to spend, I now have 1-2 keys left (pending hearing back from someone), who's in? If so, PM your email account associated with your steam account so I can send it to you.

Can't, I need information I don't have in order to port forward. Port forwarding is necessary for people to connect to my computer. I'll try to get the information as soon as I can.
I just sent out the invites. If you got one, you're welcome. If you didn't, I'm sorry, I'm just one dashingly handsome man.
I vote you give a key to Danimal if you still have any left. I'd assume he would enjoy it, despite him probably not wanting to ask for handouts from anyone. But then again, I've not even mentioned the game to him, so could be wrong.
ok so how do you get through corrupt ground anyone?

There are no ranking or ladders to climb in this game, either. So, he can't prove to anyone he's the best. Therefore, I don't think he would like it. ;)
boobs.servebeer.com for anyone who's interested in a semi-temp server. IP address (since the game can't resolve hostnames) is currently 76.21.163.113, but that's liable to change in the future. If it does, ping it and it'll resolve the IP for you.
Quote from: darkflash on May 17, 2011, 06:37:30 PM
ok so how do you get through corrupt ground anyone?
There are three ways, from the most expensive/easiest to the least expensive/hardest.
Most expensive/easiest: Buy some dynamite and blow that shit up.
Balanced out: Defeat a boss enemy (The eye, world eater, or skeletron) and buy some purification powder from the Dryad for 50 copper. When you use it on Ebonstone (The corrupted stone), it (as well as any corrupted blocks around it for about a bomb explosion's area) will turn into regular stone, and then you can mine through it.
Least expensive/hardest: Forge a nightmare pickaxe (Made from boss drops) or a molten pickaxe (Made from underworld materials) and it will break like regular stone.
I would suggest first going for the "Balanced out" way, and then the "Least expensive/hardest" way when you've gathered more supplies.
Speaking of underworld, it's profitable as hell if you're a good dodger! The molten armor pieces give around 9-10 defence apiece, and if you wear the full set, it adds another 10 defence as a set bonus! I am DEFINATELY sporting this when I take on bosses from now on. ;D

Get a demolitions man to move in. He sells grenades, bombs, and dynamite. I'm pretty sure he moves in when you have a vacant house and find a bomb (which is DAMN easy considering it drops commonly from pots)
Yeah, I already found some bombs and I'm not that far.
I keep hearing weird sound in some places. It sounds like a combination of water splashing and someone munching on cookies. I'm kind of worried.

The only things that are underground on a generally shallow basis are Mother Slimes, Black Slimes, and Skeletons. Nothing too terrible, but they are stronger than your run-of-the-mill surface enemies. The splashing water is them flopping around in any body of water near you.
As for I, just assembled the full Molten Armor set, and now am rocking massive defense. I did two Cthulhu Eye runs in one night, and it was during a Blood Moon too, so it was !@#$ing hectic. Severed limbs and eyeball halves everywhere. All the loot from it is quite a nice sight though. I need to start looking into smashing all the shadow orbs in my world and get some meteors to drop so I can put together the Meteor Armor set and get the mother!@#$ing SPACEGUN :D

Pretty much this. The wiki has supplied me with so much vital info.
Also, be more than prepared for a boss fight when you smash a shadow orb! I learned that the hard way. The World Eater slapped me silly but I was able to take him out once he tried to storm my spawn and all my NPCs. Now I got the whole Shadow Armor set, whoop.
The only thing i'm really having trouble with is finding the underground jungle..
Destroyed about 8 corruption orbs, but cant find a freaking underground jungle.

It's kinda deep, and going straight down won't land you in one. They're just kinda scattered throughout the middlemost portion of the map. Let me run to one on my map and drop you the depth.
Edit: One I found was around 700 ft below. Again, this didn't sprawl through the entire map at that level, it was just a chunk of it.
Edit 2: Since map size seems to have an impact on depth, I'm playing on a Small map.
Finally ran into lava at ~1900 below. Nice sapphire there, too. :)

Welp, destroyed Skeletron and got into my world's dungeon... hard to loot everything in there because the !@#$ing Dark Casters APPEAR EVERY FIVE SECONDS AND SPAM YOU TO DEATH WITH WALLTHROUGH MAGIC.
But I did find the Muramasa. :D
Snakeman, i swear you must be no life-ing this game or your just uber leet at it-__-
I haven't even got my first heart upgrade yet. o.o
I got 300 max hp O.O found three crystal hearts right next to eachother once!

The problem with servers in this game is that the world is not infinitely big. We will have to refresh the world every so often.
EDIT: How much of the world is corrupted upon world creation? I haven't bumped into corruption yet.
i logged on scottys server and got insta raped by goblins, i didnt even know goblins were in this game. i died alot and killed them all and got a harpoon.

What is it, exactly?
EDIT: Discovered that it is a Demon Alter. Apparently rare outside the Corruption, so I must be lucky to have one so close to my house!

You are extremely lucky. You can summon bosses with ease.

So, after spending all evening yesterday playing on Scott's server (and becoming the secksi specimen of man I am now), I decided I'd rock some single player for a while so I could get some hearts, since Scott's server was distinctly lacking after being picked clean earlier in the day. So, after getting my house all built and ready, I headed out to the left. Just beyond my house, I found a cave in the hillside, which I figured I'd explore later once I finished my current task of getting stone for my house walls. So, I continue up the hill, and what should I find, but a spot of silver ore imbedded in the hillside just above the cave entrance. Naturally, I snatch that shit up, and continue up the hill. I reach the top, and what should my eyes spot, after finding NONE on Scott's server in hours of play?
(http://img861.imageshack.us/img861/9018/goldore.jpg)
Yes, that is Gold Ore, and a sizable clump of it :D
I started a project, which is to make a very tall tower out of red bricks. The name of the tower is yet to be decided.
Now, as I was building the walls, I bumped my head onto the bottom of a floating island. Excited I went and checked it out. There are tons of tall trees and look what I found!

Well you need at least a gold pickaxe, and that should suffice. All it takes is dodging and placement. You can mine blocks even if you're not facing them, just as long as they're in range. That in mind, face where the meteorheads are flying at you and then hold down your mousebutton. The pickaxe will smack them all away, and since it has to at least be a good one it will be fast enough to constantly knock them away while you mine the meteorite.
Items stay on your person when you go into multiplayer right? I'll have to pop in, since I'm practically maxed out and don't really have a need for any of the ores or items in that map.
Geeze you guys are so much further along than me haha. At least I found a chest in a cave below my house earlier and found this in it, pretty useful :). Also, playing with the grappling hook has become my favorite thing to do...its so fun :D
(http://i229.photobucket.com/albums/ee43/petro1214/flipper2.png)
Eh, just a few more from me..
Making my way down to 3k below found this (and a couple more areas later on..)
(http://so.igufed.com/terraria/glowingmushrooms.png)
Thought this may have been the bottom, figuring it was all going to be lava. Thought it would be deeper.
(http://so.igufed.com/terraria/lotsoflava.png)
This could be the bottom. I didn't get very far after I noticed that I was being ambushed by 3 of those things..
(http://so.igufed.com/terraria/slainat3k.png)
Found these under my house in the tunnel I was making. From what I know, these are demon alters, they summon boss monsters (with certain materials) and they are rare outside Corruption.
Well...in this case there are two side by side, outside of the Corruption, is that even more rare? Haha.
(http://i53.tinypic.com/2czr5v4.png)
I've gotten the game too. I might join Scotty's server later.
Other than that Demon Alter, there isn't much else under my house. Oh well, time to explore the land to the west!

At least you have that Demon Alter under your house...I gotta walk a good while east to get to one, usually I'll head there during the day time and get there at night.
Also Igu, how do you get that depth meter on your screen?
It's an item you can make called a depth meter. Idk the recipe, but you could probly find it on the wiki. Oh, and btw, for anyone who wants to replace the new sprites with the originals, here's the dowload link for all the original sprites:

I personally like the old ones better... :(
Aww, to the west is the Corruption. It's about a 20 second walk from the spawn point. Is there only one Corruption area? If so, I should be fine exploring the east.
Can the Corruption spread across sand? If so, I'm doomed.

All you gotta do is get a couple sunflowers with your pickaxe and plant them in front Of the corruption. This will cease the spreading. ;)
I want to fight the eater of worlds, but how the heck am I suppose to get vile mushrooms?
Soul eaters make going though the corruption such a pain in the ass I can never get far enough to find any.
Seriously, I think I must have killed like 60 of them last time in, and still only got 1 mushroom.
Am I just unlucky?
They are obtained like normal mushrooms, but purple and grow in the corruption area. You don't get them from killing random stuff.
scottys server has a password? D:
After I beat the Eater of Worlds, I decided to try to kill the Eye of Cthulhu. So I began killing it, but I didn't get enough pots and ran out when it was at about 800 hp left. So I just started jumping around trying to dodge it as much as possible, but ended up dieing with it at 200 hp :(...Now I gotta try again later :P

In other news, digging down straight with lots of torches, sand, and a good pick is quite useful. Along with 4 blocks of water deep in the hole, so you can jump in whenever.
OR LUCKY HORSE SHOE (instead of water) and mining helmet :P (instead of torches)
Yeah Scotty- why did you password the server?
Soloed skeletron, only needed to heal once!
Phoenix Blaster + meteorite ammo = powerful
got extra handguns, another muramusa, another flail...
On the topic of meteorite. Just throw some dynamite, wait for it to explode then collect your loot.
I'll be attempting to host a server , probably won't stay up forever but the ip is 5.240.144.176

oops, since I'm running on hamachi, you have to connect to it if you want to play.
When I get back home I'll enable connections.

The Corruption is at the edge of the desert. I can't plant sunflowers on sand, and placing dirt won't help. The dirt needs grass for the sunflower.
So, can the Corruption spread through sand?
Quick question...what happens when a npc dies? My arms dealer died a little while back =/. Do I need a gun again to get him to reappear? Because I sold my musket right after I got him, because it sucks and my boomerang is better...

Pretty sure it can't, it can only spread through dirt. To put a sunflower there regardless, do you have an NPC Dyrad? If so, try buying some grass seeds from her and planting 'em on some dirt there.

It was naturally like that, I didn't run water down there to make it happen, which is rare. Also, that lot got me 110 obsidian (and since he had a bigger pool of lava, likely even more for him), which is pretty useful.

Alright, I'm going to go against the grain and say that I don't see this game lasting past a couple of months, even with "regular" updates. I'll explain, and I'll also compare it to the success of minecraft.
This game has caps. Caps that can and will be reached. Think of this as a more glorified Stick Online. Throw creativity out the window. Once you get all the items, you're done. It doesn't nearly emphasize creativity as much as Minecraft does, and you're bound to hit that cap in no time flat. Updates? New content? I guarantee, even if they did weekly updates and added items on every update, people are going to do everything they can to get those items within the first day or two, then get bored until the next update, rinse, repeat. A lot of this can be fixed with a few basic updates. Things like not having the spawns NOT spawn all over the !@#$ing place, and honing in on you the moment they spawn with 100% accuracy. Even if they fix some of those annoyances though, it doesn't change the fact that the game is more or less a challenge of acquisition, and not creativity. The game emphasizes on finding stuff, not creating elaborate buildings. Sure, you can build to your hearts desire, but you're gonna get bored doing it. Some of that boredom might be due to the fact that on the creative scale, this game is definitely a step back from the 3D Minecraft. Now you are creating on a 2D canvas, and are much more limited to what you can accomplish.
I hope it succeeds, I'd like to see it go big, but at this point and phase, I don't see it lasting past June.
I agree Scotty - but I also feel/felt the same way about Minecraft. After a few months... there just wasn't much left to do. Granted, I wasn't as heavily invested in the creativity part (which is Minecraft's main focus at this point, it seems), but still it just tired out for me.
This game though focuses more on the exploration/battle aspects that I would like to see in Minecraft. Seeing as some people continue to enjoy Minecraft and its creativity aspects to this day, I have hopes that since I enjoy the aspects that this game focuses on more, that it'll be able to last a long time to come.
I just hope for more challenging bosses and harder to obtain items so that you can't just get everything in one go.

That's the way most games are. Zelda has a finite number of things to do before you've "won" or done everything there is to do, but it doesn't make it any less of an awesome game or worthwhile experience. This is the same thing, except with potentially even less of this problem than most games have. While still finite in possibilities, Terraria does have a tremendous amount of content, and at least
some additional long term value in building, exploring, etc. (which many other great games don't have any of). If they can crank out new content at even a decent rate it will only add to it.
Minecraft is a great game in that it's really limited by your creativity more than anything else, but minecraft is also not as much of an action-adventure/rpg game in the traditional since. They are just different kinds of games really, and while I can see how you would say that minecraft has more longterm appeal, I wouldn't neccesarily say it is a straight up better game because of it. I happen to have been having a total blast playing Terraria, which is an experience that will still have remained just as awesome even if I do eventually do all that there is to do.
Besides, they seem to have made the current game (and all it's loads of content) extremely quickly, so I don't see why they couldn't continue to do so. Particularly if it continues to do as well as it has been sales wise.

Aww, Meiun beat me to it. :(
Anyways. My world is downright terrible. It's also too large. You should see the world where I started doing co-op with my brother. The Corruption is pushed all the way to the right! I want a world like that. :(
So, I'll be bringing my Single Player character to a new, small world. If that world also has Corruption on both sides, I'll generate more worlds until I am satisfied.
So i just got this game yesterday and i suck at it badly and need help so if anyone will help me fight and find stuff tell me plea and we could play together

My first encounter with a Pinky! If you don't know what that is, it's a very rare slime that's very small and does little damage. Its health is 150. When killed, it will drop a load of money.
Decided to pirate the game to see if I like it, as I am currently low on money. Will probably buy it once I have some money, seems pretty fun.

Also, I went onto Jesus's server a little while ago to see it invaded by zombies haha. I started killing em until they went away, and came out of it with a Harpoon :D.
Also again!, I found something cool on an easy way to max out your mana. If you make a giant dirt/stone path like 600 feet above ground and just keep running >>(or <<) and setting it up (I did this looking for floating islands), every night if you run it, you will find shit tuns of stars with only a few monsters to bother you.
EDIT:I was saving up meteorite for a full set of armor...but decided to use like all that I had on this, its pretty cool.

Decided to pirate the game to see if I like it, as I am currently low on money. Will probably buy it once I have some money, seems pretty fun.
Low on money == none. It's 10 !@#$ing bucks.
Yeah, and the only way I can get money to spend online is to go to shop thats a !@#$ing hour away and buy a temporary online visa so i can buy a game I dont even like.

As the tower goes on, the rooms are going to be older, there's gonna be ruined stuff and ancient stuff as it goes on. The 100th floor is gonna be my Master's Floor. Gonna be made out of gold, and a TON bigger than the rooms seen on the screenshot, and will have a set spawn bed so you'll be at the very top. Fun little project of mine, I'm thinking of putting a couple of treasure chests in the Master's Floor that'll have some high powered weapons I've collected (you can see some in my inventory bar), some armor, maybe some money. Then I'll see if I can get it to an online server. Promises to be a fun experience..Unless you don't like long climbs.

It's not an ordinary tower. I might make it a hell of more difficult to reach the top from the outsides by adding blockades on the sides of the walls to make it harder and a slower process than simply climbing the tower the normal way. And besides- there's not going to be puzzles or anything to progress through the tower rooms anyways, Terarria isn't that 'advanced' yet. You'll just be jumping up through the tower floors. It's literally more effort to keep jumping out of your grapples and re-grappling onto the side then simply going up the floors. It's faster sure, but it'll be more effort. And thats without stuff on the outside that could hinder your ascent.
Plus- you need to take into account of the rooms themselves. Like I said the Master's Floor is going to have stuff inside it that you'd want to get your hands on, and you can't get to it without destruction from the outside. So unless you're just lookin to climb it, I'd suggest going up through the floors.
Actually- I think the tower is going to hit a floating island. I'm gonna have to destroy that island to keep the tower goin probably :P.

Not much point in that is there?
Most of the game is exploration in SEARCH of good items. What would be the point in going to the Underworld? What would be the point in slaying monsters if what they give is useless to you? Only thing left you can do is build creations, in which you might as well be playing Minecraft, as it's much better with it's creativity and building potential. I know that's kind of ironic of me saying that when I'm building a 100 story tower, but I'll also be using this world for a while with my new characters as well. The tower is just going to serve as a spawn place then.
Which is the main reason I'm building this tower with my main character. Not much else to do with him now.
Hey guys, i don't know if you knew this, but you can run the game without going hrough your steam account to load it up. This lets you be able to play when you're internets off. You gotta go to this directory: C:/Program Files/Steam/steamapps/common/terraria. Once you're there, you should see the Terraria.exe file, just drag where you want it and there ya go!! Hope this helps at least one person lol.
It's Giveaway time!
I have an asston of extras that I feel are rare/worthwhile enough not to just toss away to the NPCs, so I am willing to offer them up for grabs, free of charge. Just specify what you want and gimme some server info and I'll stop by to toss it off.
[DISCLAIMER: Having items handed to you may cut down on the game's replay value. It is completely up to you to take these items, however, don't blame me if you grow bored of Terraria and think I caused it by giving away somewhat-hard-to-find/make items. I assume no responsibility for whatever you might do with any of these items.]
I have, up for grabs...
1x Band of Regeneration
1x Space Gun
15x Life Crystal (Limit 5 per person, no hogging please.)
5x Flower of Fire (Limit 2 per person, again no hogging.)
1x Vilethorn
Simply post in the thread with whatever items you'd like in a quote box, please.
Me and DC playing together on our server :D.

If anyone wants to join us, you can PM me and I'll give you the info. We are using hamachi though.
Destroyed my first Shadow Orb! :D
How long does it normally take for the meteor to come?
Does anyone have a server that is preferably not hamachi?
This is what happens when a meteor hits your sky bridge.

The meteor destroys part of it, but the rest of the meteor doesn't hit the ground, it just vanishes.
Eater of worlds is awesome to fight. Once I finally killed it I got shadow helmet, also got a Vilethorn from the Shadow orb that spawned said Worm.

GOD DAMN GOBLINS OUT OF MY TOWER!
My bro and I attempted to kill Skeletron. We both had 160 health each and my bro had a full set of demonite armor. We both had phaseblades, too. The fight lasted...10 seconds?
Now our goal is to search for heart crystals before we attempt to fight Skeletron again. What's the recommended maximum health and weapons?
Tidus, mind sending me the hamachi details? Sent you a pm :D
i would also like the details

Pfft... Apparently that tower I'm building is going to be so high, it's going to hit the top of the sky box before Floor 100 is reached. Looks like I'm going to have to restrict the number of floors. Maybe down to 50? Or 60? Kind of a shame, but the good news is that I'm done building Floor 42 now. Close to being done.

Had a meteor hit my !@#$ing dungeon once. Half of the meteor itself was missing, and whatever was left over decimated a biiiig chunk of the brick. Double whammy. :C
11, if you're having trouble with Skeletron I recommend packing a Flamerang, and buttloads of health potions. More max health always helps too.

The sad thing is i still do not have rocket boots-_- if anyone has 1 spare please share:)
My bro and I found out about the loads of heart crystals in the underground jungle, so we went there to get some more max life. 100 health hornets that spawn in swarms and deal 30+ damage...we're going to look elsewhere. At least we found 2 of the crystals in the jungle and my bro made himself an ivy whip. :)
Hey guys is it natural to have a waterlogged dungeon?

Would be a good idea, except for the fact that you need to beat Skeletron and get inside the dungeon to find the piece required to make the Phoenix Blaster.
If you wait until night, you can actually run inside the dungeon, but it spawns like 50 other skeletrons.
Still possible to get to some loot I've heard.

What Titan said. I waited till night and just ran through opening chests as fast I could. Got a Handgun out of it. :]
Any boss is beatable at any time if you pack massive amounts of healing potions and have a weapon goldtier or better.
Just sayin.

How long has Terraria been in development?
Development started for Terraria in January, 2011 and we will continue to support it for a long time to come!
5 months only? Their engine must be a blast!
That just proves how straight forward XNA works, never seen anything that comes even close when talking about professional indie game development.

Actually my friend has looked at the Terraria source code so that he could create a map editor/map creator in C++ that will work with it and he says the engine they designed is highly flawed. He went through it for an hour just pointing out how the code could be optimized or improved upon.

Pshh, your friend doesn't have any business digging through their source anyways (in my opinion), so all he
should really care about is the end result of what he payed for ::) Which in my opinion is still a very sweet game, particularly seeing that it was made in such a short period of time. It's all about priorities with big projects like this, and the end product came out pretty badass. There are typically always more things that can be done to improve or optimize things on a technical level with a big project, but I doubt one of their priorities was pleasing people digging through their source. But, I've never seen any of their code, so I can't really talk much here.

Magicka is made with XNA as well, and that game is certainly fairly professional for an Indie game. As with pretty much any framework, development environment/kit, language, or whatever else, it's all about how you use it. XNA in particular is only really a tool/resource, and a relatively minimalistic one at that (in many ways at least). But like you said with whole straight forward thing, that can often be a good thing when the person using it knows what they are doing. The only reason you don't see more of this is because most people who do use things such as this tend not to know what they are doing. Game Maker had the same sort of stigma attached to it in many ways. Just because many people who use it are noobs, doesn't mean all it can do is noobish things ;)
Anyways, I'm going to start feeling like a bit of an ass if I continue slapping down my opinions onto all you guys (especially since this isn't even my game). I rarely care that much, but I'm just sensitive/empathetic towards Indie groups getting judged too quickly when there are just as many "professional" game companies that suck just as bad (as well as being sensitive towards the concept of peoples work getting messed with) :P So, enough said!

Doesn't seem to be that large of an issue considering they've been at the top of Steam's best selling list since it was released. One man could (and always will) dog another's work, especially if it isn't their own and they have no developmental ties to the application, be it out of jealousy that they didn't come up with the game first, or because they want to sound like they're more qualified, when in reality, they're just arrogant.
EDIT: Just to clarify, I'm not really opposed to someone cracking open the source code to another application, rather opposed to what some of the things they'd do with it. Map editors are harmless, but as soon as they degrade another's experience with the game, yeah, I'll have something to say against that. Or doing it just so they can sound cool and try and impose upon others that they know more than the person who made it. Some of the best educational experiences are taught off other's works, and it's always refreshing to see another's perspective on how to accomplish a certain task. Then again I am biased towards open source, so naturally I'm going to think that I suppose.
@Meiun/Scotty: Don't get me wrong, the game is amazing. And I agree that prioritizing is a key part of programming. I was merely pointing out the engine has flaws that we will get to see solved and removed and the game will have a huge performance boost in the online play. As for my friend, he is in love with the game and admires the creators and the code in it. He actually emailed them a little revision of one piece of code explaining what he did, why he did it, just so he could help them get farther and update faster. :P As for his business, you are right in that he has none. However, he is one of the white hackers and to him, in his mind, it is his business. To solve and figure out how things work, to help people. You must view things from another's perspective. He would never ever release it, and he has also informed them that they need to obfuscate and encrypt the game.

i see where you are coming from kinda but for one the client (game) is not his to hack I'm sure its in the rules somewhere.
2ND.
i don't think emailing them what they most likely all ready know, seeing as they maid it. there will be updates this is just the first copy they will fix a lot of flaws.
any how what I'm getting at here is he should hack the files with out the owners permission. Even if it is to help.
How would you fill if someone hacked your work after you put all that time into it and told you to do this do that. None the less hacked your files (which can be shared)
don't take me wrong on this just my thoughts. Just like you have your own.
@Havok: I have actually had that done to me. I appreciated the work they put into it, as I was able to learn from them how they accessed my source, fix my errors and also gain a new friend whom I still talk to daily. As for them already knowing, sure they may already know, but he saved them 2 hours of work that they can now use for something else.
Way I see it, someone has just as much right to look at the source code as they do to open up their computer. What matters is what they intend to do with the knowledge, and learning how it works and seeing methods in which it could be improved seems like a damn good reason to me. If someone did that to something I coded, I'd be damn thankful (assuming they were correct and not full of shit).
@Havok: If they already knew it could be improved, then it shouldn't have released it in that state to begin with. Especially considering that their development time was already so short.
Anyway, the real reason for my post, new update is out:
QuoteControls
Right clicking and holding on a crafting recipe will craft multiple of the same item to a max of the stack and/or until you run out of materials.
Items
NEW ITEM : Sticky Bombs, Requires 5 Gel and a Bomb.
Sand Duping bug fixed.
Placing a bed far from the spawn no longer causes a player who has set their spawn there to crash on join.
Mining stone and other hard ores make a 'tink' noise now.
Hellstone and Obsidian now require at least a Demonite pick to gather.
Sand no longer spawns within a certain distance of the spawn location, This should remove the chance of spawning in a desert with no wood to use.
Hellstone now correctly takes as long to dig as meteor does.
The clay pot item now has the correct size.
Performance
Frame-skip is now correctly ON by default for new players.
Increased Client Side Multiplayer stability. Should resolve many crash causes.
Corrected a bug where players would intermittently not take falling damage.
The world file is now saved to a temporary file that is copied over to the actual save file. This prevents world corruption when saving is interrupted.
Fixed a bug that disabled some error handling. Overall game stability should be improved.
GUI
The version number of the game now shows on the title screen.
Typing numbers in chat no longer changes your selected item in your hotbar.
Server
Servers now listen to all IP addresses on the hosting PC, regardless of how many network connections are active.
Typing "localhost" instead of your own local IP address will connect to your own same-PC server.
The games default port is no longer ELEET (31337) it is now 7777.
Client will now resolve a hostname into its IP address, for example, if randomsite.org ran a server, you could type randomsite.org as the IP address and be able to connect.

but I'm going with meiun on this I'm going to close my mouth before i start something i should lol
i added my 2 cents in and that's all I'm going to say
Hurray, one new item... Enjoy one week's worth of productivity folks!

Servers now listen to all IP addresses on the hosting PC, regardless of how many network connections are active.
Typing "localhost" instead of your own local IP address will connect to your own same-PC server.
The games default port is no longer ELEET (31337) it is now 7777.
Client will now resolve a hostname into its IP address, for example, if randomsite.org ran a server, you could type randomsite.org as the IP address and be able to connect.
like i said i see where you are going wit this but they put the work into it i don't think you should be able to do it. even if its to help. you should get permission
any how go this is similar to the geohot's and Sony case. if you don't know what I'm talking about look it up
and before you reply its different i see that but its on the same base we are talking about even tho he did it for the wrong reason
Sony is sewing him for tampering and hacking there software.
And Sony is wrong and flawed in their actions. The only reason they won the lawsuit is because Geohot is a lone man against a huge corporation. Nice to see my friends bug fix was implemented based on these release notes though. :]

I'm not going to fight over this it's pointless. Those are my thoughts and you have yours.
PS Geohot's lost because he was lieing and hiding things from the court DO a little searching around :p
All though it didnt help that it was a big corp sewing him.
but his hacking might have lead to the Playstation network being down. They lost a nice little bit of money on that. If you still think hacking is okay.
and he wasn't alone he had all the other hacker's around the world helping him sending him money.
Im not saying hacking is wrong and a bad thing im just saying doing it with out permission from the source code's owner is wrong to me.
Unless its a legal reason.

And I believe Sony was wrong in every regard. It was Geohot's hardware, he paid for it, he owns it, it is entirely within his rights to do whatever the bloody hell he wants with it.
P.S. Geohot 'lost' because he settled. Do a little searching around.

i would if i was him to after lying to the court about the 3 PS3s. they wiping them clean to cover up what he did.
As for owing it he owned the PS3 not the software You agree to that when you turn the PS3 on.
There for its wrong
Okay I'm going to shut up now lol

So much for not arguing. You clearly have little to no understanding of the case, and you are continuing to egg on those who do know. He didn't lose so much as Sony didn't win. They came to an agreement as to not financially ruin him. Where did you read that he lost?

What he exposed has absolutely nothing to do with the Playstation NETWORK going down. He cracked the console, not the network. If there was anything that could relate the two, it was a vigilante effort that sided with Hotz

Exposing the code isn't bad, it's what's done with it that could be potentially bad. What's to worry over if someone looked at it and immediately discarded it out of boredom? Or are you worried that someone might point out flaws in the application and hurt feelings by expressing their desire to help? Sounds like someone's got a sensitive ego and can't accept constructive criticism.

Speaking generally about tampering and screwing with other peoples stuff.. Legally, sure (depending on what they do with their stuff). Morally, not so much, at least in my book. Many companies only sell you their product with the agreement/implication that you won't due shit such as that. Also, when your actions begin to screw with other peoples enjoyability (anyone really for that matter), or the companies success, that's not ok (sometimes illegal in this case too).
Not the best analogy towards what I'm getting at here, but just because you bought a gun certainly doesn't mean you have the right to do "whatever the bloody hell you want with it" (particularly not the bloody and hell part in this case). When your use begins to negatively impact others, either on a minor or indirect level, or direct and significant, thats when it quickly starts becoming wrong.
But either way, my fault for sending this conversation off topic like this. So at the least, lets try to not let it stray any further. This topic is not about Sony (or the morals of reverse engineering really for that matter).

Thing is though, much like T-Rok's friend, Hotz didn't do anything that would affect other's experience with the console, unless they wanted to go down that route. He didn't force anyone to use the information he had, he didn't get an extra kill on someone on COD for it, he simply discovered the secret that Sony fought so hard to maintain as a secret, released it to the public, making them look stupid, and they got their panties in a bunch.
Nice analogy by the way, clever choice! ;D
But anyways, to at least contribute to the topic, they'd better start getting around to adding loads of content if they expect people to remain interested, since that is what the game is all about. One item a week probably ain't gonna last long. It's early though, time will tell.
my bad for fighting with them about it i should hae closed my mouth. when i said i was going to.
and like i said its not the same but goes on the same gide line is what i was trying to point out.
back to the Terraria
im glad they changed the port and that i can host from a domain as welll maybe not i can get my server up.(without hamachi)

Technically, yes. But he should still have known prior to doing so, that by releasing it, it would cause far more harm than good. Essentially, he was acting as an enabler in the situation. Waving his potentially deadly hack "drugs" in the faces of all those otherwise harmless black hacker "drug addicts".

Thank you for saying that tho i was about to but you worded it better then i would.
Plus i didnt want to start fighting again :p
I doubt it'll just be one new item a week. Their focus is probably bugfixing/optimization at this point, and to fix any and all of the crashes people are experiencing, before adding any hefty about of content.
Like you said, it has only been 1 week, too early to tell, but I'm no where near holding it against them...
Fought skeletron (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WzBp-0xcmoo) While there was a blood moon (really fun) And i got some extra things i dont need from the dungeon, so im offering them up.
I have
Muramasa x1
Blue moon x1
Handgun x1
Enchanted boomerang x1
And Life Crystal x4 - Limit 2 per person
Im looking for some Molten armor, but im willing to negotiate for something else that is good.
Thanks, if you want something just make a post or pm me, either one works.
Edit i probally wont get to hand out tonight, big tornado coming our way appearntly D:.

This topic seems to draw a vary strong parallel to file sharing and how information can be toyed with. At some level you have the source code to everything. And you can kind of think of the program and the source as the same thing in different forms. Now of course its not 1:1 and some information can be lost/gain going from one to another. Its like music remixes but instead of the person adding his own originality to the information, he just changes it into something else closer to what it was before he got it.
Almost like making a music sheet from something some one hears. I think the controversy comes in the effort on the 3ed party's job of messing with some one's else information. We seem to have different standards for this stuff. Its all going to come down to the feelings of the two party's and the opinion of there social peers. What side are you all on?

This is really something that you should make a new topic to discuss.
Your right Meiun. Agreed.
As for the game its self I really like it. The main game play is not bad and feels stable to me. All the content also makes me happy having to find out new things. I have not payed for it because it was gifted to me but I feel like it would have been worth the money. Cheaper than a 3D movie in most places and last longer. It also does not feel like just a rehash of Minecraft.
this is a stick online server that wil be up 24/7(i got the ports fixed so you dont need hamachi)all the info you need is in that link
http://www.stick-online.com/boards/index.php?topic=2089.0
Honestly, I'm sort of starting to agree with what Scotty said a while ago about the games long term appeal. I still fully stand by what I said earlier about the game being a good game even if you do run out of stuff to do, get everything there is to get, etc. That is not the problem really. But to me, the problem lies in the general design of the multiplayer experience for the game.
Once people who have already progressed super far into the game (and have tons of good shit) start to become more and more common, then play alongside new players, it sort of ruins it for the new players. The games design tends to make it easy for players who already have super good shit to get more of it, making it really easy for them to have excess copies of items that should and would otherwise be extremely hard to come by or acquire (for any new player). The problem is then worsened by the fact that there is really no value or use for these extra high end items for players who already have them, making it so they pretty much have nothing else to do with them but give them to the noobs. So then you are left with a bunch of noobs all being spoiled to crap by getting handouts within the first two hours of playing the game, and then they too will have basically "beaten the game" before they even have truly gotten started. Even if you don't get handouts item wise for playing with experienced players, you still get sort of indirectly effected because of how much easier they make things for you. But mainly its just the handout thing.
If you were to just play the game either all single player, or all with people who are around the same place as you progression/gear wise, it is great (still personally feel a lot of the items should be rarer, but thats just me). The problem isn't really the fault of any of the players, its more of a design flaw/difficulty if anything. The game in many ways seems to be designed to be a single player experience in terms of how things progress, but has tons of multiplayer elements put in as well. This is awesome in many ways, but can sort of screw things up in certain cases for the reasons described in my last pharagraph. Most of what makes the game fun to me is the experience and journey of acquiring new and rare items, so when other epic players come along and can so easily do this for you, make it far too easy, or just give you their now-too-easy-to-acquire-extras, it sort of spoils all that.
Almost makes me wish the game did not have trading. Would be an unfortunate sacrifice, as trading can be great. But doing so would likely be the simplest way to solve at least 90% of this issue.

Well that didn't take long. :P It just so happened my handouts came on day two, yours came a week later than mine.
Seriously though, I've gone the route of creativity. I recently re-imaged my desktop and I started over with Chaos, Luci, Haon, Snakey-poo, and maybe eventually Jake, all of us trash talking one another on Teamspeak while we start fresh on a new map, fresh characters, etc... Once we start fresh, we've all sort of adapted to different responsibilities. Chaos handles the magic, I do the architecture (this fort, whom I've dubbed "Fort Awesome" is shaping up quite nicely!), Snake is the residential pain in the ass, Luci is my supply bitch, and Haon fills the role of the pin-cushion (sarcasm for the latter 3 of course). I'm actually enjoying finally exploiting the creative side of the game. I don't have more than some decent pick-axes,hammers, etc.. No armor, no decent weapons, and I'm actually enjoying the game more than before when people would just run by me and throw free stuff.
Either way, I'm sure this will wear off in a day or two, and I'll be back to square one. It's inevitable to have free handouts when everyone caps out and just racks up on the rare gear. If I had a dime for every time I heard someone say "Does anyone need meteorite?" I'd buy everyone on these forums a copy to the game.
@Scotty Ha, yeah. That really is probably the best way to deal with the problem. That's sort of what I was planning on doing too. Just find a group of friends, and all start from the beginning together in a semi-private environment like that.
Also, I actually never actually received any significant free handouts. I just sort of began to see the ease with which they could occur, as well as witnessing it happen to countless others. I've actually been declining numerous handouts in a desperate attempt to avoid having the game spoiled for me, for the exact reason it was spoiled for you X_X
I think I'm definitely done with singler player. I've got most of the better stuff (all molten gear, other good weapons) that were obtained by me. So, yea, that's it.
Now time for more multiplayer to do things in a group. Possibly start over.
Although, one weird thing happened earlier this evening in multiplayer.. I've posted it in the 'support' section of the Terraria forums to see what can be said of it.. If nothing comes up, Dan hax more games than just SO.. ;)
I finally beat skeletron XDD

I started digging a hole in the ground and found a cave. About 5 minutes later of exploring, I found something I believe to be called a Demon Altar. I didn't know how to break it though :s I used a hammer and everything I had, but only lost like half my health trying.

I started digging a hole in the ground and found a cave. About 5 minutes later of exploring, I found something I believe to be called a Demon Altar. I didn't know how to break it though :s I used a hammer and everything I had, but only lost like half my health trying.
Demon Alters can't be broken.
Yes they can.
What I suppose to do with it? Will it give me items?

It's used to make certain items, mainly boss summoning items. It can't be moved and removing the blocks under it will just make it disappear. It's used like a crafting table.

I take back my previous statement. I was half asleep when I wrote it. I read "Demon Altars" and pictured "Hell Forges". They can not be broken. Fail on my part.
They can't be broken, but they can be destroyed with the use of dynamite. In terms of being able to acquire one in the inventory by breaking it, then no.

Feel free to join me on flaming this guy. I think I already made my point, but I think I missed some things.
I care as much about him liking the game as he does about the game. Nothing wrong with not liking the it. Some do and some don't.

Its not that he doesn't like it.
Its that he automaticly compares it to minecraft, plays for 3 minutes, and says theres nothing to do.
He's clearly trying to troll.

I agree with this post. Yeah, his arguments were !@#$ing retarded, in fact just ASTOUNDINGLY retarded. But what's the ONLY reason people even make Youtube videos, now? To, you know, gain ATTENTION? Stop indulging the loser and laugh at him behind his back. Not a hard concept.

Hes got a Terraria LP going right now, along with Portal 2, Magicka, Oblivion, and a few bits and peices of other games. Bout an hours worth of Terraria right now. I suggest you guys check him out.
Looks good! Just $1.99 away from having enough on my Paypal to afford this. I'll join you all when I do, which'll be soon. :)
In my opinion it's best to play this game co-op. Single Player is a little boring while more than 2 people will make it difficult to split loot and will take a while for the whole party to get stronger. I've been playing co-op with my twin brother and it's pretty fun, except for when he throws dynamite in my house. >:(

Water Bolt shoots a bolt of water, as the name says. It's the spell the skeleton casters in the dungeon use against you. It can bounce 5 times off of walls, it's not effected by gravity, and it goes on until it hits something, or those 5 times are up. It's good for trying to find floating islands because it bounces off the bottom of the island if it hits it. It looks like a red book with a gold frame with a water drop in the middle. It's obtained from the dungeon shelves; I think it is the light purple book with the small blue square in the middle for the icon. Whoopie cushion looks like a whoopie cushion basically, pretty small, skin coloured/pink pretty much. It's dropped from a lot of different things, all being pretty rare for it to be dropped from. It has no use really.
Alient pistol uses a flintlock pistol, 30 meteorite bars and 10 fallen stars for the creation on an anvil. It deals 15 damage and uses 9 mana, not musket balls or stars.

Flintlock pistol? Is tht the one u buy from the arms dealer?
Yes, it's 5 gold from the Arms Dealer to buy.
I really like this game, but it seems like it has very little replay value.

Set bonuses that provide more defense, now correctly match their tool-tip.
All armor inventory icons have been improved.
All player armor graphics have been improved.
Iron, gold, meteor, and bone helmets have been changed graphically.
Molten armor?s overall defense has been reduced.

Increased client side multi-player security, this should help in the battle against broken character files.
There is now a host and play option in the client, that will auto connect you to your own server world upon its creation.
Corrected a bug that was causing the Server to send out liquid as water when it should have been lava.
Clients are now able to connect to ports other than 7777.

One of the new enemies has been discovered as the Dead Miner (unless the wiki is lying again). It drops bombs and hooks and it wears a mining helmet, allowing it to be easily identified in the dark.
Now THIS is a content update.

i updated my server and the lag is a lot better
To the privileged few who had access to my server, it is back up and operational.
Fantastic. After some time waiting and when I was able to scrounge up a bit of money for Terraria, I can't run the game because my old graphics card isn't supported by the XNA framework. I'm guessing the only fix to this is a new graphics card. :-X I have a NVIDIA GeForce4 MX 440 with AGP8X.
EDIT: If anyone knows another workaround to this problem, could they please tell me? I do not have the money to get a graphics card right now, and I'm sure as heck not likely buying one for a $10 game off Steam.

My bro and I killed Skeletron with our Blades of Grass and my Enchanted Boomerang. It died right when day came. Seriously, how are you supposed to solo that thing!?
...Anyways, found a couple bugs.
-Starfury can only swing to the right. If you try to swing to the left, you'll turn around.
-Suspicious Looking Eye doesn't need to be used to summon the eye boss. All you need to do is highlight it and the eye will spawn instantly. My bro and I were able to kill 4 eye bosses in a single night with only one Suspicious Looking Eye.

I solo it with ease with my flamarang. You can get tuns of hits in with it while its head is on the ground spinning and following you. Having full health and high def armor helps too though, because you can just stand there while it is hitting you and spam click to throw nonstop.
Enok and I killed it with Sunfuries :D

I just soloed him with my quick blade (I forget what its called but its blue and found in Sketron's dungeon [I rushed in and stole it before the 7 skulls slaughtered me]) and minishark (had around 1000 bullets to use). I had on the full demon armor. I feel so accomplished

This is a problem. The guide can't move in to our houses, keeping other NPCs from coming. :(

Meh, I solo'd Skeletron. Wasn't that hard. Minishark'd him til I ran out of bullets, then flamarang'd.
As for Starfury, wrong. You just kept clicking to the right of your guy. He will turn toward the direction of the mouse pointer because it's dropping the stars where you're clicking.
Ok so I just bought the game a couple of days ago, haven't had a chance to play til now. I'm trying to make my house and I can't get the door to connect to go on the wall.... I've tried clicking everywhere but nothing. Looked it up on the wiki but didn't find any help.. What am I doing wrong? :-\
I trapped the guide in a box, and and 20 seconds later the merchant and the guy who sells explosives move in. Problem solved!
Stick d00d, look up the word house on the wiki. It will show you what a traditional house is for the NPCs to move in is. It also shows where the walls and the door is place. There has to be 3 spaces where there aren't blocks for the door to be placed, also a top and bottom above the 3 squares I believe, for the NPCs there has to be a floor atleast.
Yea I used google and it took me to the wiki :P Thanks anyways I will do that.
My bro and I fought our first goblin army. I found it to be a huge disappointment. The goblins are pathetic wimps! I didn't have to use one potion and I had almost full health when it was over! We both had full shadow armor and we had blades of grass.
On the plus side, my brother got himself a pair of rocket boots. Now I'm jealous. >:(
Tip: Chests can be found in the ocean borders. My bro and I found one and it had a pair of flippers.
Ok my Merchant died during a blood moon and he won't move back in, what do I do?
Get the Guide killed or go a certain distance away during the day. Both should make him move in XD
The guide also died during the moon but he came back shortly after, I've gone a good distance since he died and nothing has happened :( maybe I'll try building him a new house.... Also I've had bombs equipped in my inventory forever and never got a demolitions merchant, and I have 2 open rooms :\
I made a humongous water cube that took about 2 hours to fill. After that, I released the water, and attempted to flood my world.

Scratch what everyone said before: THIS is a content update!
Oh my god...well this seems to be a group of developers we can come to trust and respect. Let's hope this becomes a monthly thing.
Made a large map, jungles are like 2x larger than before with jungles on the surface.
They're basically pushing out great updates every 1.5 weeks, since it's already had 4 updates and been released a few days less than a month ago.
With thew new surface biome, small worlds are now just too small. I generated several worlds and either the corruption is pushed to the borders or the jungle and corruption merge (which looks very weird). I'm migrating to a medium world.
Is anybody hosting a 24/7 server? I can't connect to the Dragx one anymore for some reason..
I'm loving the new pause feature! No more getting attacked when switching items! :D
What version is this game currently? 1.0.4?
I tried to download my player/world files from my other computer through mediafire. Uploaded them from my netbook and tried to download them onto this one.. Turns out it changed them all to shortcuts, how do I get it to keep their original file type?
Use a flashdrive?
I don't have a flash drive to use at the moment... was trying to find a way to do it without a flash drive, so I don't have to go and buy one.
Open the Steam dropdown menu at the top of the Steam application and select "Backup and Restore Games", backup currently installed games, Choose Terraria then next and save it to a USB or the desktop for upload. It backs up the worlds, and the characters. It's the best way to do it to avoid corruption of the player or world files.

Ok thanks man. I remembered I have a old MP3 player I can use to transfer it.
No problem. I was pretty annoyed after I reformatted my computer and found out the steam application doesn't actually do much for the games itself. I thought it'd be nice if it could save some of the data for the profiles or something, but it doesn't do anything. I ended up having to restart from scratch on Terraria after obtaining all but a few of the available items at that point. :P

No clothier :o
I haven't beat Skeletron yet, been messing around in the jungle and gathering hellstone :P
Going to take on the Underworld solo. My mission is to get enough hellstone bars to make myself a flamarang so I can defeat Skeletron. How should I prepare?
I instead got a Thorn Chakrum and killed Skeletron with that. I looted the whole dungeon, but I lost my aqua scepter. Not sure what happened to it...
Anyone wanting to trade?

Unless I'm just a dumbass, wasn't Terraria written in C++ using XNA game whatever the eff it's called?

XNA is C#. It's easier to use than C++. You could probably pick it up today and finish a pacman game in a few hours if you use Game Maker.
QuoteWell, we've reached a month since we released Terraria to the public. And in that time we have seen a large thriving community grow and come together all over the Internet, especially here on TerrariaOnline. So to offer you an idea of the size of the community on a while, we share with you the following numbers.
-By The Numbers- As of (06/16/2011)
Copies/4Packs Sold Total - 350,000+ (Copies Owned - 432,000+)
Days/Top Ten Sales List on Steam - 32 days
Days/Top Ten Played List on Steam - 32 days
Players Online at once - Peaks we have seen range from 14k to 32k a day.
Facebook Likes - 28,773
TerrariaOnline Members -
40,992
YouTube Trailer Views - (Old-Gameplay) 1,181,691, (Release Trailer) 866,285
We are very proud of these numbers and we would like to thank all of our fans and the community for the efforts they put in to spread the word of the game, and also contribute to it with suggestions and ideas.
We want to send a special shout out to the team at Valve who help us with out with the general advice they send our way. The way they treat others is a great tribute to gamers everywhere. With so many game companies focusing more on profit, its great to see a company focusing more on the gamer themselves. And their support of indie developers offers a great shining example to other studios. It's as if they are saying, "Don't lose site of why people play a game." And that is also our guideline here at Re-Logic, as gamers ourselves, we know what we want a game to be like.
As for what we want a game to be like, In my last Dev Blog I mentioned some things you could look forward to possibly be in 1.0.5. I would like to share some of the changelog items with you. Not all, mind you, as we like to keep some of it as a surprise of course. We are hoping everyone starts to see the concept for the game as we have envisioned it more and more with every update. As the game starts to come together and become more intuitive, lengthy and purposeful, we hope to quell any doubts some people have that the game will not be able to keep its 'staying power' and 'replayablity'.
To that end, We give you, Hardcore Mode.
I Mentioned it briefly in a tweet, to let everyone know it was on its way. I can verify now that It will be in 1.0.5 and it will offer to those who find themselves wanting more to do in Terraria, an option at just that. Yes, it will be an 'option' and wont be forced on everyone.
Here are a few things I can say about it.
Its a Character Based option, so your HCM character can move between servers. Be careful though. As a non-HCM players grief can end your run quite easily
Its set at character creation and can not be toggled off for that character afterward.
If you Die, thats it, game over. You must start a new Character at that point. Your world however will not be effected by this. So this means you may start a new HC mode character and utilize the house/chests your last character left behind. You will also see a gravestone where your old character met his fate.
It really changes the way you play the game, as every action could be your last. Caution is a good thing. Also, There is more of a sense of accomplishment as you play.
Now, for those of you who want to know what else is coming, here are a few tidbits from the change log.
Lighting code has been optimized to increase performance.
Servers now hibernate when no players are connected.
Bats, Hornets, and Eyeballs no longer enter water.
Slimes now float in water.
Spam detection is less aggressive.
New Item - Hellfire Arrow. (Boom!)
Also, Mr. Guide has become a friend to all new players. A new feature for this helpful individual, is that now he can tell you what specific items that you 'show him' are for. This should assist new players in discovering new recipes they can't yet make.
Furthermore, for those of you who like to know whats going on in your server, and are tired of simply seeing "MrMan was slain..." when someone else dies , will now have the satisfaction of seeing the likes of the following;
"Blue fell to his death." or "Blue had his head ripped off by a Green Slime."
PvP also becomes more interesting (and satisfying) with those kinds of specific death messages. :]
Lastly I want to mention that Redigit has laid the framework for having NPC shops change their inventory after certain world events. It isn't certain yet it the new feature will be implemented in 1.0.5 or not, but its something you can all look forward to.
Overall, we here at Re-Logic feel that offering to our players new interesting things to see and do, is the best way to keep them happy. And, by far, your happiness is important to us. 1.0.4 was hailed by almost all fans as a success, and we hope 1.0.5 will be as well. We have yet to set a date for that update, but more and more each day new things find their way into the change-log.
(Looks at his Dev chat window) Whats that Redigit just said?... New Potions, Buffs?... Oh my.
Hardcore mode sounds pretty fun. One new item coming (sigh). Potions and buffs... ok that makes up for the lack of items I guess... I'm more interested in the HC mode then anything else at the moment. This was posted two days ago.

What are you talking about one new item? He clearly stated He wasn't mentioning everything in the change log.

Wow, very nice list of updates in all categories I believe. It pretty much covers every single area which could be addressed. I'm going to start a new character fresh and see how it progresses. :)
Holy freaking crap. They keep this up, and I'll buy it for everyone.

How the heck do you get bottled water?!
While standing in a body of water, and bottles in your inv (crafted from 1 glass), you can craft bottled water.
Man terraria sure is notorious for great updates.

It's rather confusing on the first day, like in Minecraft. The Guide NPC doesn't really help either.
Here is a video tutorial on how to survive your first night: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQrlNE5d5jE
After you build a shelter and have a decent weapon, the rest of the game will be easier to understand. Terraria does get pretty addicting, so you have been warned!

Yes it costs money, but it's only $10 and is more than worth the cost! Just take a go to the wiki and look at the item list!
Also, one of the best things about this game is that it's updated every week or so. It's been out for a little over a month and it already has had 5 major updates!

Idk I figured someone would start up a server for the S.O. players ;)
damnit the forums for terraria are down again D:
I would start a server but i dont think many people play anymore D:
Unlike Minecraft, it's best to play this game Single Player since the maps are limited. Or, you can grab a friend and play Co-Op. Co-Op is THE best way to play Terraria in my opinion.
yes co-op is so fun I want to start one I could if anyone is intresteD? new chars new world?
I would like to play with you guys. Please let me know when a server is up. :(
Accidentally dropped a bomb in the house i finished making. *facepalm*

Is it still online? If so, what port are you using? I can't seem to connect to it..
Planning to start a new character, so I threw up a server for the time being if anyone wants to join. Currently nothing but a small housing structure where you spawn.

Ughh i want to play terraria online, but i have no servers to play on. i normally play on one but its only up on weekends ;(

What kind of ore is that?
Its copper or iron. He is using a special potion that allows you to see ore and chests that would normally be in utter darkness. These potions (like ~15?) or so were released in the latest patch. There a blast! (along with a bunch of new monsters, better guild info, and stuff. Really great patch)
@ clock what accessory is that, second from the bottem?
It's called Aglet, adds 5% movement speed I believe.

Well, there's alchemy and surface jungles. Also, the Underworld now has a ton more mobs (lava slimes, demons, hell bats). Corruption also has long caves connecting all of the chasms. These can be used as a battle grounds for the Eater of Worlds boss fight, since you can no longer battle it outside the corruption. There are now rare, golden chests that contain more loot than normal chests. Also, the ocean biome has been expanded. Look our for sharks and crabs! The deserts are now much bigger and contain cacti, vultures, and antlions. Venders sell different items depending on the time.
The dungeon can no longer be looted during the night time without killing Skeletron. The skeletron heads were replaced by dungeon guardians, who deal 9000 damage no matter what time of day it is.
There are many more changes than what I listed. Some of these changes can only be seen in new worlds.

Well, there's alchemy and surface jungles. Also, the Underworld now has a ton more mobs (lava slimes, demons, hell bats). Corruption also has long caves connecting all of the chasms. These can be used as a battle grounds for the Eater of Worlds boss fight, since you can no longer battle it outside the corruption. There are now rare, golden chests that contain more loot than normal chests. Also, the ocean biome has been expanded. Look our for sharks and crabs! The deserts are now much bigger and contain cacti, vultures, and antlions. Venders sell different items depending on the time.
The dungeon can no longer be looted during the night time. The skeletron heads were replaced by dungeon guardians, who deal 9000 damage no matter what time of day it is.
There are many more changes than what I listed. Some of these changes can only be seen in new worlds.
Uhhh, I could loot the dungeon during the night just fine...
Really? I thought that was fixed when they added the Dungeon Guardian.
EDIT: Oops, I worded that wrong. I'ma fix...
Someone put the ocean in this castle.

It's a bug that has to do with the new ocean size. It's being fixed in the next update (that is getting released tomorrow).
1.0.6 is being released today! Yesterday both Red and Blue tweeted about it. Blue said it would be released 19-28 hours from the time of his tweet which was at 2:30 PM, EST (GMT -5) on Aug 8th.

Steam just downloaded the update :D
On another note, I just bought this game 2 days ago for normal price, and today they have it at $5, 50%. -_- If only I would have waited...
Ugh...There are so many people on the forums it won't load! D:

My Merchant is being retarded... he won't move from this spot underwater next to my house... I've left and came back a couple of times and he still just sits there o.o
EDIT: I'm going to reload the map and see what happens.
EDIT2: I eventually had to bulldoze a flat path all the way for my house and then trick him to come from a cave under my house through the floor o.o
So I bought this game a couple days ago, and I still have not been able to play it. Whenever I try to launch it, it gives me an error. To be exact, it's CLR error 80004005. The only thing I know about it so far is that it doesn't have anything to do with the game, rather the .NET files. Correct me if I'm wrong, though. If anyone knows anything about this, I would appreciate it. Google hasn't really helped me out that much.

I've already done that more than once. I'm running on Windows 7.
looks good is it worth getting?
QuoteMan, there is a lot going on here...
(http://terraria.org/junk/holywater.png)
I think I'd like to keep you guys guessing, but I will share one thing. You can now directly use items that are being held with your mouse (instead of always dropping it.) This also enables you to place items without putting them on your hotbar first.
:o :o :o :o :o :o :o
Wow, I can't wait for this update. I just wish the worlds were larger. Or it looped around or something! Make it an MMO. Hahaha
Sadly i hate to say this but your GAC file may be corrupt try sending windows a messge or backup your comp and restore it. Then reinstall it all
QuoteSorry for the long wait since our last post. Even though we've been pretty quiet the last few weeks, we've been very busy getting the game ready for the next update. Right now, we are aiming for a December 1st release.
The new hell boss, Wall of Flesh, is pretty much finished along with two out of three hard versions of the older bosses. You are definitely going to want to bring a friend along if you hope to have a chance against them.
We've also been finishing up a new mechanics system that will allow the players to create some interesting devices. Though, they are still very much a work in progress. Here are a few that I've come up with while playing around today:

They're wires. They work like redstone in Minecraft, but I think you can only see the wires if you're wielding a wrench.

Coming out Dec 1st.. yargh
Hey, Scott, sounds like we need a server again, eh? ;)

Hey, Scott, sounds like we need a server again, eh? ;)
I will get on it :P
It makes me want to make a map specifically for PvP fights. Or mod it. Team Deathmatch. Have rounds and score and what not. If only a mod was available.. would be awesome.
If they get the update out today, I'll host a server. More info to come later in the afternoon.
EDIT: I'm thinking I'm going to make a PvP server, using Teamspeak as the primary means of communication. If people can't use TS, the in game chat can be considered the second line of communication, although I know I am rather bad at keeping up with chat as I'm chugging away at building or exploring.
What I want to establish is two teams to fortify bases, we'll start fresh, everyone will start building, and at a given time, likely an hour or so of building, everyone will enable PvP and we'll have a go at taking down the other side. To establish the teams, please post up whether your interested, and if you have a preference for team placement (wanna play with your pals, etc..). After I get home and get everything running, I'll create my own topic on these forums to coordinate the PvP without cluttering this topic.
For those who aren't spun up on PvP in Terraria, they have an elaborate wiki page on it: http://wiki.terrariaonline.com/Guide:PvP
There's a daily deal on the game right now, it's $2.50 for the next 24 hours.

- Fixed a problem that caused objects with transparency to appear darker than they should.
Honestly, with all this new stuff, I'm starting to think a new server with all new characters only playable on said server, in cooperative 'survival RPG' effort, would be pretty fun. I know we tried it before, but that was after everyone had already played through the whole game and gotten tired of it. With all this new content, it will be a fresh experience, and we now have an ultimate goal of beating the 'hell boss' and stopping the corruption that we could all work together towards.
Mind you, I think a PVP server could be fun, too, but I'm more eager to do some cooperative survival now, myself. :3
Fine, be a 450W Industrial Strength Douchebulb and ruin all my fun you skittle of a rainbow, survival it is. I'm working late, but plan to have it up within the next 2 hours tops... If I can pull myself away from the office.
Sorry for the double post, but server is up:
jicamadickables.dyndns.org
Be courteous. Period.
Epicly huge update, so excited. From the official website: "there are 222 new items"

I'll make a new character just to play the server. LETS DO THIS THING!

Seems to be quite vital to getting the full Terrariamas experience, as they can drop the snow globe.
The snow globe is pretty much a holiday goblin battle standard. Use it, snowmen roll in from one side and try to shoot you down.
After you defeat them, make sure to have an empty house open for the big man himself, and that'll allow you to nab the rest of the holiday items.
Hey if anyone wants to play on my server with me pm me, this isn't 24/7 but i will have it on when im on and when anyone asks me.

:/ Seems Redigit is done with expanding the game. Really makes me sad, I see so much room for growth within it. Maybe one of the indie studios offering to pick it up will actually manage to strike a deal with them. One can only hope...
Friggin game ain't even a year old and they're already abandoning this child....-_-

On the plus side, Starbound will most likely be released by the end of the summer.

And this game looks like it might be even better. :P
As a game jumper (one who switches between games constantly), I got bored of Terraria long before the project was cancelled. The same goes for Minecraft (I stopped playing at Beta 1.4). The gameplay got old, and not even more content would bring me back. Terraria was a great game, but it's time for me to move on to another game.
R.I.P., Terraria. I will never forget the fun I had with you. *tosses Terraria out of nearby window and waits patiently for Starbound*
I read about this yesterday :/ Kinda sad.

Looks like he won't be passing the torch. But he may open source it: http://www.terrariaonline.com/threads/my-fellow-terrarians-pt-2.82165/ (http://www.terrariaonline.com/threads/my-fellow-terrarians-pt-2.82165/)

Nobody said anything, but Terraria has been out for iOS and Android for a couple of weeks now.

Funny that you say that..it's near unplayable on my iPod 4th Gen, but on my 100 Dollar Android (Xperia Mini Pro) with a 1gHz processor it works like a charm.
If anything the iOS version needs to be optimized, as games SHOULD be able to run on a last generation iPod.

That's funny, because I heard that Terraria runs fine on iOS 3rd gen. I haven't tested this myself, though.
The phone version of Terraria has a lot less content. It is missing hardmode, so when you kill Wall of Flesh nothing in particular really happens. The 1.2 update is coming to PC first, so I suggest sticking to the PC version.

Maybe I just needed to manually clear some ram up.. I don't know. But the gs4 uses Qualcomms Snapdragon 600 SoC with a quad core 1.9gHz Krait 300 CPU and an Adreno 320 GPU and 2GB of ram. I don't think I should have lagged at all.. Like at all .-.
Whoever's idea it was to release this the same day that GTA Online goes active is a moron.
The new songs, all 13 of them! The soundtrack has doubled in size!

Also, according to what Redigit said on on Reddit, the Moon is coming to Earth in version 1.2.1!

It's out.
yea looks so sweet :p im ready to play with it with some friends
I got a zombie arm from my second zombie kill. I won't have to make any swords for a while. :P
Played it as soon as it released (9pm PST/12am EST) for 10 hours with Luigi300. Loving it. Does anybody make a new character whenever a big update releases or is it just me?

I always make a new character. Despite the first few hours of the game being a drag, it is worth it in the end to start over. You appreciate the new content more this way.
And.. beat everything.. Got some freaking op crap. I wish there were more bosses. :(
I think he mentioned he had another small update planned (1.2.1) that will include at least one more boss. He said this during his AMA, but I'll have to find the link.
It was posted up there! A moon boss or somewhat.
