How to git gud at Terraria? ]I dig and dig and dig and don't find any iron, and it is supposed to be common.
If this game is supposed to be better than minecraft, why is this allowed? If iron is this common, then fuck getting the uncommon materials. Why do you people love this game so much? It is grinding: the game. Yes, my house is shit, I accept it.
Come back when youve had that ADHD seen too kid.
>>332695804
I have schizophrenia and I am 30.
Can you try again?
Find caverns, go down, dig all the visible iron? You only ever need one set of iron armor and iron tools if you're playing on normal so of course it will take more time to craft than in Minecraft.
I started a new world recently. My tip is to start by making a small house with wood for protection. Then dig for tin,tungsten etc as they are easier to come by than iron usually. Make gear from these. Also keep in mind that underground you'll find heart crystals and that increasing your hp will trigger some events. For example goblins will invade you and kick your ass the whole night. Try making gold/tungsten gear and in the night kill the demon eyes for lenses. When you get 6 lenses go to the corruption at an altar and get an eye of chtulhu summoning item. Hit and run this boss and when you kill it it drops the materials to make lights bane , ninja armor etc.
>>332695964
But you can make a lot of cool stuff with it. Buckets, doors, statues and etc.
Why is iron so hard to find then?
>>332695529
By uninstalling lol rekt
>>332696007
I have found a good cave place, but iron is stillkinda scarce.
Haven't seen any mineral other than copper and iron. Do I have to dig deeper to find other stuff?
I have plenty of sand and wood now.
>>332696060
It's not. Also that guy is wrong about you needing iron armor. You just need Silver/Tungsten/Gold/Platinum minimum.
>>332695529
>playing 2D minecraft
Is it bad that every single World I make I use TEdit to see my whole world? I mean I just do it to see if Corruption/Crimson has fucked up my World (like corruption pits in the jungle or crimson caverns in the snow) so I don't have to find out later.
>>332696359
>Play minecraft
>Minecraft is shit, play terrraria instead

Good ole /v/ shits on everybody for everything.
>>332696245
Try to go from cavern to cavern all the way down. If you see that you keep digging for a while and theres no oppening just dig somewhere else.
Also if you build enough houses to get npcs to move in with you (it requires a chair , a table and a light source for each npc) a guy that sells explosives will move in. From him buy dynamite and digging then becomes the best thing.
I reached hell this way. Now im fighting whatever's down there. Just in time i had gotten bored.
>>332696359

No matter what one does, there will always be one that shits on you, so you shouldn't give a fuck. You fuck off.

>>332696727
Why can't you just travel normally? You don't need food to travel and you can just make a small hole with a tiny bit of light so you are safe during nights.

>>332696856
Whatever, stop shitposting and contribute or kill yourself.
>>332696975
>and contribute

>>332695529
If you can't find iron then go for lead instead. They're the same shit in Terarria.
Also your first priority should be digging a pit as deep as you can.
>>332697137
Enemies start getting stronger the lower you go.
How am I gonna survive if I find things that kill me in 3 or 4 hits? I have barely found one heart container.

>>332695529

Nigger you have grass growing in your house, put some wood flooring down you fucking animal.
>>332697267

>>332695529
>>332697267

>>332697452
Literally triggered
I want a third material for the floor. Any suggestions? please no shitty wood.
>>332696887
>Why can't you just travel normally?
Maybe because it's a pain in the ass for a completely new character? Not only are you slow as balls, you are also barely able to fight yourself out of a wet paper bag at that point. The other option is just flying around with an old character, but I don't see how that's any better than using TEdit.
> You don't need food to travel and you can just make a small hole with a tiny bit of light so you are safe during nights.
Wow that's really fun and convenient, you know sitting out in the middle of the night for like 15 minutes waiting.
>I don't see how you need to cheat when Terraria is this easy.
Because I don't want to discover a huge corruption pit in my Jungle the hard way AKA after an hour or two of game time.
>>332697267
Did you make a bow? That helps a lot. Also, make a grappling hook as soon as you can.
>>332695529
Have you found any lead ore?
Terraria has both with interchangeable quality. Random chance for either on world creation
>>332697527
Make it wood, you freak.
>>332697597
Working on it, but it requires fucking iron yet again.
I have made lots of rope though, but haven't got used to it.
>>332697757
There is no adverse effect to letting it be grass, there is it?
I guess I'll use bricks, since I don't like wood. But then it will look even worse, oh well.

Most ores for each tier are randomly selected for each world you create.
Tier 1 is either tin or copper
Tier 2 is either iron or lead
and so on
You can find the other kind of ore in chests and such sometimes but its pretty rare
>>332697583
Anon.
The jungle fights back against corruption and crimson now. It has for a while. Chlorophyte will re-moisturize dirt, spread to it, moisturize from there, and continue. Essentially, the Jungle now has the ability to grow in Hardmode, like the Crimson and Corruption, and can reclaim land lost to the evil blights.
Plus the Clentaminator is easily available by the time you actually need to to the Jungle in Hardmode.
Actually, it's pretty uncommon to find Corruption or Crimson in your jungle unless you're playing on Small, and on higher sizes they'd only take up a very small portion.Personally I only play on Large. Small is only good for harvesting, medium is only good for first time solo players, and by the time you hit the halfway mark even Large worlds will feel a little cramped.

1.3 was a shit update. They shouldn't have hyped it to be the second coming of Christ if it was going to take that long and have so little. It added less than 1.1, which is a fucking travesty, considering that was the final patch of Terraria for 3 years.

Nah. Even then, Terraria has far more decorative tools than Minecraft. An extra dimension means nothing if you lose 98% of all the other shit that made building in Terraria cool. There's only so many cobblestone and brick houses you can build in Minecraft before it all blends together.
>>332713451
I agree. I've made way cooler buildings in terraria than I ever have in minecraft. And theres even a point to it in terraria, what with the npcs and all. In minecraft everything feels so... Empty and dead.
what size is your map? If you're solo, play a small map.
>>332713905

there is plenty of beauty in limitations. terraria has too many items to the point of bloat and their only functions are to appeal to mmo addicts who for some reason or another enjoy 10 different pickaxe upgrades with 50 variations that differ only slightly from those 10 pickaxe upgrades. not to mention nothing near as interesting as redstone.
and even minecraft fucked up adding too much fluff and no substance. minecraft beta 1.7.3 is the end of life minecraft game
>>332713674
in later minecraft games you could create an entire village to trade with a-la terraria. its a shit addition too, the game didn't need it and it worked perfectly fine with that empty stranded feeling. there are also npc mods and whatnot explicitly designed to flesh out npcs

It was a pretty fucking big update, there being one that was bigger doesn't take away from what it added.

>Foliage and other decorative pieces that spawn all over the world

1.3 was a fucking disappointment. Expert mode is shit, and that's basically the only important thing the update added, aside from some quality of life changes and items.
This is coming from someone with over 1700 hours of game time, someone who beat expert mode Moon Lord solo, without the cheese. Fuck Expert Mode. It's shit. Awful. I'm never playing it again whenever I replay this game.

So you're just a casual then? Good to know, expert mode is far, far better than normal, more gear, more required strategy than just "hit enemy until it dies", and more consequences to dying even without hardcore.
>>332714290
>added a heap of end game content
Nowhere near as much as 1.2 or 1.1. Hell, 1.2.3 added nearly as much end game shit with Fishron.
>made NPC's be able to fight back instead of just dying
Cool quality of life change. It's nice, but not really anything substantial. The only ones that are of use are the Dryad and the Nurse
>added new NPC's
1 permanent, 1 that only shows up at random in the underground, one which you aren't even guaranteed to see in a playthrough.
>added expert mode, and all the gear that entails
You mean "enemies have double hp" mode? Fuck that shit. Most of the expert mode exclusive drops are utter shite. The only ones worth the effort are the Demon Heart and Worm Scarf. Maybe Spore Sac if you still need to farm the Rod of Discord (which doesn't even have increased drop chance in expert because it's horribly designed schlock).
>added a bunch of content to the invasion events, including new bosses, new enemies, and entirely new ones
One new goblin if fought after beating Plantera, the pirate ship, and the new enemies in the Solar Eclipse. Yes, the solar eclipse change was much needed, but that's the only substantial one.
>added a few new biomes, underground desert and other mini-biomes
All of them are near useless or completely pointless. Undeground Desert is shit, since none of the enemies drop anything special, and the bones are completely useless once you start getting into Dungeon stuff.
Definitely not worth the wait. It was barely bigger than some of the more substantial post-1.2, pre-1.3 patches, and that's sad.

Let me remind you that Dev wings were already items in the game as of 1.2, but would kill you if you tried to equip them. 1.3 just removed all their beneficial stats and made them not kill you.
>Implying any of the new biomes are as substantial as spider caves or bee hives.
Bee hives have an entire new set of armor for summoners, a new boss, honey (the 3rd liquid), and a new tier of items. That's more than all of the new biomes in 1.3 combined.

End game bosses in normal mode were fine to begin with. The early game bosses, besides the Eye of Cthulhu, aren't even that much more difficult. The only ones I needed to prepare for were the mech bosses and Moon Man. Even then, I ended up just farming said Moon Man because I got bored of doing anything else in Expert, and then just went and made a new non-Expert world to have fun in.
I actually beat Expert mode. Post proof that you did, or fuck off with your 1.3 apologist bullshit.

Farm a Daedalus Stormbow from hallowed mimics (make a hallow key from 8? souls of light and put it in a chest to spawn own) and get a stack of holy arrows (1 unicorn horn and a few pixie dust per 200 arrows, 1000 is more than enough), it rips the first three hardmode bosses apart
>>332715108
>Hell, 1.2.3 added nearly as much end game shit with Fishron.
Yeah, even just talking about bosses, Fishron is nowhere near as much content as moonlord, which is two bosses and an event.
>Cool quality of life change. It's nice, but not really anything substantial.
True, but it's still a useful change, which is what a lot of these are in both updates.
>1 permanent, 1 that only shows up at random in the underground, one which you aren't even guaranteed to see in a playthrough.
You're not guaranteed to see any NPC in a playthrough but the guide, that's hardly an argument.
>You mean "enemies have double hp" mode?
Is that really all you think expert mode is? It adds entirely new moves.
>Most of the expert mode exclusive drops are utter shite.
But they're not, they're objectively better than the drops you get from normal mode, even in the early game.
>One new goblin if fought after beating Plantera, the pirate ship, and the new enemies in the Solar Eclipse. Yes, the solar eclipse change was much needed, but that's the only substantial one.
But you're wrong, it added

Do you also get angry about apaches being added?
>>332715216
Good proof anon, and totally changes what I'm saying. You're literally complaining that expert mode sucks because it's too hard.
>>332715108
>barely bigger than some of the more substantial post-1.2 patches
That's a huge exaggeration. 1.2.4 was basically the only post-1.2 patch of any significant size. Any other were just icing on the cake and laying foundations for shit to come.
Also since fucking when have we gotten this elitist about Terraria updates? The game with some of the biggest, most substantial game-improving updates that dishes them out for free and is sold at a corner store price, and because an update WASN'T BIG ENOUGH COMPARED TO EARLIER UPDATES it's sad shit? Seriously?
1.3 was great. Yeah, sure, maybe not quite as great as 1.2, but a lot of it focused on what's been important about Terraria: building and customization. A shitload of quality of life came along with it to boot; so maybe it's lacking a little on the sheer quantity side of things, but the quality is as great as ever, and as ever, the game will only continue to improve with each update, something that can't be said for a lot of games.

What are the negative effects of breaking altars besides giving you different ores? Also correction, I broke around 10, not 20.

For each altar broken I believe a chunk of Corruption or Hallow will be generated somewhere. And also Wraiths, but who cares about them.
>>332716376
It creates a corruption/crimson or hallow block somewhere in your world, which is very likely to land in your jungle. This isn't too bad if it's hallow, but if it's corruption/crimson, if you don't find it and get rid of it quickly, consider your jungle fucked up forever.

Are you... serious, right now? Are you seriously that disappointed in an update that was so big that only one other update in the game's history has ever outstripped it, and only because it focused on introducing things that improved and added variety to the gameplay experience instead of adding another 12 NPCs and 16 bosses?

Fishron's inclusion added the truffle worm, fishing, and a whole new set of equipment. Moon Man involved the pillars and him, and their respective drops. Where's the other boss?
>You're not guaranteed to see any NPC in a playthrough but the guide, that's hardly an argument.
You are if you build houses. Sure, you could just never go to the ocean, never use torches to light up living wood rooms or floating island houses, and never build houses, but that would be shooting yourself in the foot. Skeleton man is a rare appearance in a part of the map that most people don't go to for the majority of their time playing Terraria. It only takes ~3 hours to get all your ores and heart pieces, plus another hour for the life fruits, anklet of the wind, plantera, and jungle temple.
>Is that really all you think expert mode is? It adds entirely new moves.
That is literally all it is. Fuck expert mode. It's shit. Completely arbitrarily making enemies take forever to kill. It doesn't make it more fun, it just makes it a bad decision to go any class other than melee, and makes just building things on the surface a million times more annoying when you're dealing with enemies with more health than Skeletron.
The only thing I missed out of that was the 2 new enemies to the Blood Moon, both of which have no unique drops or purpose. One's a reskinned Zombie, and the other is unique, but pointless. Aliens are a new invasion, yes, and the cultists aren't an invasion.
1.3 is the Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth expansion of Terraria.

EEEEENG wrong
>>332716376
You have a roughly 1 in 3 chance of corrupting or hallowing a single stone block in your world any time you smash an altar. Yes, it can spawn in the Jungle, but the likelihood is really, really low given how little of the Jungle actually consists of stone.
Furthermore, Chlorophyte, once generated, can actively fight Corruption back and remoisturize dirt into mud again, repairing damage done.
You're more likely to get a single, lone pocket, if that, than fuck up your jungle, and infinitely more likely than that is the odds that it'll spawn somewhere else underground in the other 5/6ths of your map.
moonman when are you coming back
>>332716151
Because 1.3 added so little, took so long, and negatively impacted the game in some ways (mostly just nerfs to items that didn't need it). Tons of quality of life improvements are great, and the new enemies and bosses are cool, but the wait for 1.3 had no reason to be longer than 1.2's dev time when it added so little, despite having a bigger team than ever. Not to mention the huge hype surrounding the update, when all it did was disappoint.
I'm actually angry that I was lied to about expert mode. It's utterly pointless, and just makes the game more tedious and boring. They didn't even make it useful, because important items, like the Rod of Discord, didn't even get an increased drop rate. It's still a 1/500 drop chance, meanwhile the Chaos Elementals deal double damage and have double the health. Just tell me with a straight face that that is good design.
>>332716691
>Consider your jungle fucked up forever
But this isn't really a problem. In the mixed biome you would see all enemies that would appear in the pure biome. You might see less of them proportionally, but that probably isn't an issue. You would still get both keys too regardless of enemy type. The only argument I could really see is that it would make Plantera fight harder with enemies spawning nearby but I didn't have an issue.
>>332717031
>1.3 added so little
I'm not even gracing the rest of your post with attention. This is blatant falsehood. Literally one fucking other update in the history of the game has ever added more on a level of quantity, and the level of quality is matched if not outstripped.
>>332716717

Where's your Gravity Globe or Mysterious Tentacle, anon? Don't tell me you don't have them. At least you managed to kill the Moon Lord.

Yes, I'm that fucking let down by it. All the hype they built, all the promos, and it was all mediocre shit and quality of life improvements. It didn't even add as much as fucking 1.1, let alone 1.2. I was expecting something at least on the level of 1.1, so my expectations weren't even that high. I just wanted something better than what we had in 2011, which only took 6 months to create, not a year and a fucking half.
>>332716746
>Fishron's inclusion added the truffle worm, fishing, and a whole new set of equipment
Fishron did not add fishing, that's a lie.

Lunatic Cultist is a boss required to start lunar events.
> Skeleton man is a rare appearance in a part of the map that most people don't go to for the majority of their time playing Terraria.
I've literally never had a playthrough where I didn't run into skeleton merchant, he spawns literally anywhere underground, which is where most people spend most time, that's where you generally get your ores if you're just just abusing fishing (which is not fun, most people won't do that first playthrough)
>That is literally all it is. Fuck expert mode. It's shit. Completely arbitrarily making enemies take forever to kill.

Literally every class is viable in expert, why do you hate it so much? It's not particularly hard, you just need to think more about fighting bosses, because just flailing at them with good DPS is no longer going to work.
>The only thing I missed out of that was the 2 new enemies to the Blood Moon, both of which have no unique drops or purpose
And you know, you turning event bosses into just barely anything at all, saying that one's literally just a new goblin, when it's objectively a miniboss.
Seriously, what is your problem? 1.2 added more shit, sure, but 1.3 was the far better update, the quality of what it added was excellent, whereas a lot of what was added in 1.2 was pretty inconsequential.
You're chucking a tantrum because it didn't add as much as literally the biggest update ever for the game did, and saying it added next to nothing.
>>332717171
> This is blatant falsehood. Literally one fucking other update in the history of the game
Fuck off you newfag liar. 1.1 and 1.2 both added more, both of which added more quality content, on top of the quantity.
aight, serb where
>>332717338
1.1 added like 50 new blocks, and just tweaked how weapons work apart from that. The only big thing it added was wires, which are completely unnecessary, there's no real purpose to them that can't be just as easily done without them.
>>332717517
Moonman is off torrenting gay porn, so serber is down for now
>>332717602
Sorry, forgot about the machine bosses, I guess it added those too, but they were mostly just reskins with more weapons, not entirely new bosses.
>>332717338
>didn't even add as much as 1.1
1.1 didn't match even a single third of what 1.3 added, man. Oh boy, three new ores and three new armour sets with 3 more tiers of armour that can be combined into a fourth! And three remixed bosses of earlier bosses, plus a bridge-building check! Yeah, there's a new biome and new enemies, true, plus new torches, new guns and new bullets, but ultimately it was way worse on the quality and quantity was its only real good point.
YEAH IT SURE IS FUN HAVING ONLY ONE VIABLE ARMOUR SET AT THE ENDGAME
IT SURE IS FUN HAVING TO GIVE EVERYTHING A COATING OF DUNGEON BRICK TO PROTECT AGAINST CLOWNS
IT SURE IS FUN GRINDING THROUGH LITERALLY THE WORST PART OF TERRARIA A SECOND TIME, BUT THIS TIME EVEN MORE
You're deluded. Also, again, I shouldn't need proof to argue this shit on a conceptual level. Especially given that we both know how easy it is to just spawn this shit in. There's no guarantee you haven't done that, and now that I've mentioned it, there's no way you're gonna believe me, so exactly why again are you trying to bring proof into this as if it's some mark of credibility?
Every update has done good and bad things. Some things people liked, some things people didn't. 1.2 was an amazing update that came out of fucking nowhere and we only got told once it was nearly done - we had no fucking clue how long they'd been working on it. 1.3 to contrast came after a chain of updates and we all knew it was going to come eventually.
1.2 also suffered from a lot of issues that 1.3 did. Lacklustre endgame, many items being plain unbalanced or invalidating other items, half-baked mechanics that would need another update or three to pound out into something properly good. So the next major update didn't have as much quantity as the surprise revival and didn't boost the game's quality by as many tiers.
...So? What fucking lunatic thinks that they were just gonna outdo themselves and double literally everything every single update?
>>332717602
>1.1 added like 50 new blocks
It added far more than that, which is still more blocks than 1.3
>and just tweaked how weapons work
???
Are you serious right now, or did you never play 1.1. It was the foundation for the rest of the game, and added hard mode, which was far more substantial and challenging than Expert. Flamethrowers, class split, every hardmode weapon in the game, crossbows, and so on. It did loads for the combat, and made it fast paced by adding incredibly strong end game bosses. You wouldn't know, because the bosses were all slowed down, made to deal less damage, and have less health.
>The only big thing it added was wires, which are completely unnecessary
How to spot a casual. Wiring is one of the most important things in the game. Sure, it's unnecessary, but so are grappling hooks, minecarts, fishing, and potions.
1.1 also added
>4 new NPCs, one of which was Santa

>>332718528
Oh yeah sure, so the engineering update which will add about as much as the fishing update will be an even bigger disappointment to Mr. "It wasn't as big as I wanted it to be, even 1.1 was bigger".
Is there a mod or some kind of altercation to Terraria's uh.. what is it, hard mode?
I really love the game prior to activating hard mode. Short of just not turning it on, is there a way to get a lot of content and features of Hard Mode without turning the game into LOL RIDICULOUS LAND that throws out any attempt at reasonable power levels and threats?
>>332718179
>1.1 didn't match even a single third of what 1.3 added
It added way more, you fucking sperg. You just wouldn't know because you never played Terraria beforehand, and you're taking everything in 1.1 for granted.

Because Hallowed was meant to be the final armor you get, your reward for beating everything else. You had the different helmets that let you specify it towards classes

>1.2 was an amazing update that came out of fucking nowhere and we only got told once it was nearly done
Wrong. 1.2 was in development only a short while before we learned about it. I'm surprised you don't remember when /v/ blew up because Terraria was getting a new update.
1.3 Still took fucking forever to come out, and added so little. It's okay to like it, just don't try to claim that it was anywhere near as good as past updates. It's the fucking Afterbirth to 1.2's Rebirth, in almost every single way. Added less items, added less new mechanics, added less new bosses, added less endgame content, didn't deliver on all the promises and hype, and took way too long to come out.
>1.2 also suffered from a lot of issues that 1.3 did. Lacklustre endgame,
The endgame of 1.2 was great. Felt like the golem temple was a little rushed, since all the items except the stinger were shit, but at least they decided on giving us more content and then fixing it shortly.
>many items being plain unbalanced or invalidating other items
The balance was pretty heavily skewed in the favor of Melee and Magic, but they had both just been outclassed by Range for the longest time. Melee was only OP because of Turtle Armor and Vampire Knives, the latter of which was a 1/4000 chance of obtaining.

It came out after a fucking YEAR of hype, you shithead. A fucking year. I expected it to be at least as good as 1.1.

Remember, it only took 6 months for 1.1 to drop.
>What fucking lunatic thinks that they were just gonna outdo themselves and double literally everything every single update?
What fucking shiteater thinks that they did a good job with 1.3? It was a fucking mess, and it essentially killed the Terraria hype. I'm more excited for Otherworld now than I am to get back to replaying 1.3, and that game looks like this.

>Are you serious right now, or did you never play 1.1. It was the foundation for the rest of the game, and added hard mode, which was far more substantial and challenging than Expert.
Hardmode was just a couple bosses and some new ores at that point, it was shit when 1.1 first came out.
>Flamethrowers, class split, every hardmode weapon in the game, crossbows, and so on
Most hardmode gear was added in later updates, check the changelogs my dude.

Except I played 1.1, and they weren't siginificantly nerfed, they were shitty reskins.
>How to spot a casual. Wiring is one of the most important things in the game. Sure, it's unnecessary, but so are grappling hooks, minecarts, fishing, and potions.
No. Those things are all vital components of the game, allowing for efficient movement and easier mining and exploring. Wiring does nothing like that.
Also
>calling me a newfag because you're mad that a several year old update was worse than one you have an irrational hate for
1.1 just created a barebones shitty version of the endgame we have today, you can see this in any update log, if you'd bother checking instead of just spouting about how the 50 new blocks were totally proof it was better than 1.3.

Not as much as 1.2. The new dyes are much appreciated, though. Made the dye trader much more useful.
>More stuff that other updates had more of

What, specifically? Biome crates?
>the AI and mechanical changes to bosses were not minor and in many cases
Yes they were. Zombies now swing at you if you are out of reach. Cool. What else did it add? Double, sometimes quadruple, health enemies? Nice job ruining Expert mode, there. Might as well just have doubled the spawn rate and called it a day.
Get over yourself. 1.3 was a huge disappointment for all the hype it had. Maybe if you knew nothing about the update before it launched it would've surprised you, but Expert mode is as much of a broken promise as Hush being an endgame floor was.
>>332719250
>it only took 6 months for 1.1 to drop
Because it didn't add that much different than what the game already had before 1.1! Yeah, a few mechanics changed the feel of the game, but definitely not as much as 1.2 or 1.3 did.
>What fucking shiteater thinks that they did a good job with 1.3?
Anyone with a functioning brain. They also had to deal with a ton of stuff on the side at that point in time and many of 1.3's mechanics were pushing the limit of what is capable in the game's EXTREMELY simplistic and archaic engine and massive chunks of spaghetticode. A lot of the shit they pulled off is downright miraculous. I'm not saying it was the best update ever, but to say it was any worse of a mess than 1.2 is a huge exaggeration when all it boils down to is that YOU didn't like the CORE FEATURES of the update.
1.3 was a big update. It is literally, in terms of quantity alone, the second biggest update the game has ever had, and your personal disappointment with it does not translate into substantiated fact.
What's new/different in the 3DS version for it to be $30?
>>332720718
Do you not see the irony in you claiming you have 1700 hours in a game, then flipping your shit because the most recent update wasn't the biggest update ever, then going and calling someone autistic for doing similar?
I mean, fuck, at least that guy sounded like he was being ironic, you're just unreasonable.
I'm not really going to bother addressing the rest of your post, because it's not in reply to me, but you're just claimed things that are objectively there are wrong or not there at all, while ignoring the rest of the things you can't deny.
find out there's expert mode and items exclusive to it
find out you get 2 extra slots for accessories...but they cant be used in a non-expert map
i dont even bother with expert mode if i cant use those extra slots in normal mode.
>>332720718
Yes, biome crates. Which is to say, "you can bypass 50+% of the game's progression via fishing alone."
You can get all of the unique treasures of a biome through fishing.
You can gain entirely unique, and sometimes absurdly powerful weapons through fishing.
You're focusing only on the basic enemies and not what it's done to the bosses and the overall feel of the mode. Expert Mode is supposed to be challenging. When in Normal Mode you will regularly just run through enemies because they can't actually do shit for you, many mooks need to be taken on a case by case basis, sometimes having to work around the environment to avoid if you're getting pummelled too bad.
The bosses do attacks you aren't at all familiar with, and are slightly less predictable overall. Shit, the Queen Bee can actually kill you if you aren't adequately prepared.
Expert Mode may be a disappointment to you, but a disappointing update overall one unliked feature does not make.
>>332720803

>Hardmode was just a couple bosses and some new ores at that point, it was shit when 1.1 first came out.
New enemies that were much stronger than had ever previously been seen in the game. The fucking hallowed. Purification. Harder bosses than had ever been seen before, and since if you consider how bad the gear was back then. Wings. A new hook (this was big at the time when there were only 2 hooks in the game). The wyvern mini-boss. Hardmode added a shit ton. All Expert did was double the health of enemies, making you waste more bullets/mana on them, and add some pretty useless Expert-only items, and the only legit way to get dev items.
>Most hardmode gear was added in later updates, check the changelogs my dude.
Yes, I know. That doesn't mean that the stuff in 1.1 hardmode was any less than it was. 4 new tiers of armor, several new weapons, like the Flame Thrower and Dao of Pow, upgrades to existing gear (like the beam sabers, mini shark), wings, 30 new accessories, and the ice rod. That's huge.
>and they weren't siginificantly nerfed, they were shitty reskins.
LOL. They were indeed significantly nerfed in 1.2. The twins and Skeletron Prime have much less HP and damage. They weren't even "reskins", except for maybe Skeletron Prime. The Destroyer was nothing like the Eater of Worlds, other than it was a worm. It didn't break into segments, it spawned the orbital enemies, and it was fucking massive.

Explosives tied to wiring were the fastest way to mine before you got the Hamdrax.

>People still thinking "cleansing the world" is a good idea.
I'll never understand this. It's better for the world to be in balance than to completely eradicate one or two biomes entirely from the world. The spread is so slow and so easily tracked and controlled that it's strange to me that anyone would conceive of trying to remove it entirely when it's a relatively simple matter to maintain and/or contain it.

I know that feel. Seedler was fucking insane. Still is. It holds up right up until you hit the Lunar Event. The seed grenades explode into high speed, enemy-targeting shrapnel? A single grenade hitting a single enemy resulting in like 5 hits?
Fucking hell it was amazing.
That said once that update dropped I put away the Seedler which completely outclassed everything else and waited until I beat Plantera before I used it again, out of respect for the progression.
>>332721328
But Binding of Isaac porting is handled by Nicalis, and they're completely incompetent and happened by a stroke of luck to hire Edmund and Florian.
Red and his team are competent, just lazy without Red being the slave driver he was for 1.2. That's why 1.3 didn't have so much, because he was busy working on his Terraria Otherworld instead of dedicating 110% to Terraria.
>>332721628
>all Expert did was double the health of enemies
You keep saying that, but repetition doesn't make it true. Increased health and improved defence stat was something that happened to all generic mooks, but in the end once you reach a certain point that still doesn't amount to too much. What does is the fact that bosses are changed up significantly.
>>332721628
>1.1 added hundreds of new items too. Flamethrowers, souls, ores, endgame weapons, statues, wiring and switches, new accessories, wings, and everything the Hallowed entailed.
But it really didn't. It was an incredibly empty update, and mainly useful for setting the foundation for the next few that came out, which added mots of the weapons, enemies, ores, accessories armor and pretty much everything else endgame.
>New enemies that were much stronger than had ever previously been seen in the game. The fucking hallowed. Purification. Harder bosses than had ever been seen before, and since if you consider how bad the gear was back then
The enemies were harder, true, but that's not a huge deal really, every update has added harder shit. The bosses fucking sucked too, the mechanical bosses are still just shitty reskins, but back then they were just annoying to fight, with no huge payoff to doing it apart from just having done it, they didn't unlock anything gamechanging, and they obviously weren't final bosses.
>All Expert did was double the health of enemies, making you waste more bullets/mana on them, and add some pretty useless Expert-only items, and the only legit way to get dev items.
You keep saying this, but it's not true at all. Expert adds new enemy behaviours, attacks, new enemies completely, new gear to counter this, lots of shit. It didn't just double enemy health, no matter how much you say it.
> That doesn't mean that the stuff in 1.1 hardmode was any less than it was. 4 new tiers of armor, several new weapons, like the Flame Thrower and Dao of Pow, upgrades to existing gear (like the beam sabers, mini shark), wings, 30 new accessories, and the ice rod. That's huge.
But it's not. 4 new tiers is literally just 4 new sets, there's not multiple sets in that tier like there is now (though early hardmode is still shitty, and it's a result of 1.1 that this is the case). Every update has added new weapons, and 1.1.

The Terraria Nintendo ports are handled by the same people that do the mobile and console ports, and they're huge nitwits that have only recently -slightly- gotten their shit together.
>>332722206
Yes, but the more than doubled EHP of enemies is what ruined the mode. I understand that it would be irrational to expect big improvements to the basic enemies, but slapping on double hp, double damage, and increased defense does not make for a fun or interesting mode. That's fucking boring, Skyrim-tier difficulty handling. The bosses were alright, some of them were still as big of a pushover as ever (the WoF, EoW, and mech bosses only really got some basic stat improvements and one or two extra gimmicks, meanwhile the Queen Bee, King Slime, and Skeletron were all significantly harder).
That's why Expert mode is bad. I'd take it without the double enemy health and be fine, but that ruins it completely. Enemies are so common, and the fact that they all have extra health, with the pay out supposedly being double drop chance (even though this is completely false, and is on a case-by-case basis, as seen by the Rod of Discord not changing drop chance at all), means that it is not worth the jump in boss fight difficulty. It really is not worth it for the extra challenge. It's so droll and boring, like I'm playing a glorified idle game. That's why it's so shit. Even disregarding the hype behind it when it was first announced.

>LOL. They were indeed significantly nerfed in 1.2. The twins and Skeletron Prime have much less HP and damage
They were nerfed, but not in a way that makes them super easy now, they're just less annoying to fight than they were then, because they were designed to be a massive challenge to hide the fact that there was no more content after them.
Twins are the only one you couldn't call a direct reskin. Destroyer is literally just eater of worlds except with more attacks, it's the same fucking boss. They're just harder versions of non-hardmode bosses, I don't see how you can argue this. Twins are the only one that's significantly different, and even then, it's just two flying eyes instead of one.
>Teleporters
Useless for exploration
>Explosives tied to wiring were the fastest way to mine before you got the Hamdrax.
They're also incredibly inefficient, as you have to look for the materials to make more. It's why TNT isn't what most people use to mine early game.
>>332722397
Oh yeah, forgot about that.
Still better than Nicalis, though. Remember when Azazel couldn't even kill a fly because they shoddily programmed his nerf? And then they fucking mocked people for complaining about Azazel being almost impossible to win as? Despite locking an entirely new character behind him?
Aside from the size of the updates that people are bitching about, are there any changes people didn't like?
Personally I feel like the mech boss souls have gotten fucked over in every single update. In 1.1 they felt important since they were used for a ton of different crafting recipes, now they're barely required for anything. Hallowed bars contributed a lot to this, and having them drop from the bosses was an awful idea in itself.
>>332722902
Nah, my only gripe is Expert mode, really. The lack of uses of boss souls was sort of remedied for Fright souls. They even nerfed how much souls sell for, which is sad.
whats it like playing online?
>>332723436
Full of griefers and people taking your drops and draining the world dry. You'd be lucky to be at 300 hp on a 10 man server, and that's even counting the extra health from life fruits, which, thankfully, respawn.
If you play a server, only play with your friends. Playing with randos on /v/ is asking for trouble, especially when you get autists like that guy who spergs out on you for being disappointed in the lackluster 1.3. There are seriously people on those /v/ servers that will flip their shit for you messing up an angle on your house, or using the wrong kind of wood.

It's great fun with mates, makes fighting bosses and mining a hell of a lot more fun and makes grinding for more rare stuff more tolerable.
Randoms are fucking shit though, people just spam explosives and blow up everything, take every drop from everywhere, it's just a miserable experience, and even the better servers still suffer from it, it doesn't have as much of the grief prevention stuff minecraft does, and that's really needed for games like this.
>>332723671

>>332724053
No, you're definitely the autist for defending that lackluster update and then flat out lying and projecting on me. I didn't lie about anything, you did, several times. Not to mention you still haven't shown proof you're good enough at the game to beat Moon Lord on Expert, so you should have no right to discuss whether Expert was a good idea or not. I obviously know what I'm talking about because I have beaten it, and can, without a shadow of a doubt, say that Expert was completely pointless aside from the Demon Heart.

Those are the three major ones, there's been several smaller ones, but you might have just been wrong about those.
>Not to mention you still haven't shown proof you're good enough at the game to beat Moon Lord on Expert, so you should have no right to discuss whether Expert was a good idea or not.
Do you not see how that's a stupid thing to say? I'm not even at home for one my dude, and you can absolutely talk about something without having to provide proof you're an expert.
I can talk about any scientific field, or artistic field and have a lot of merit to what I say even without providing proof I have a degree in whatever field.
>I obviously know what I'm talking about because I have beaten it, and can, without a shadow of a doubt, say that Expert was completely pointless aside from the Demon Heart.
So have most people discussing it, and nearly every single one of them agrees that it's better than normal. You can even see this in the thread, when people were discussing the servers.
By the way, no-one's calling you stupid for not liking the update, that's your choice, they're saying it because you're just basing it off shit that isn't even true, and trying to claim your opinion is objectively correct.
>>332724979
Yeah, that's true, but from what I remember, minecraft has some stuff built in, you can just disable fire spread and TNT destroying blocks without having to go out of your way to add plugins or mods.
