Any servers up?

[PsyberianHusky]

Got pretty bored of this already. Nothing else left to do.

And the Minecraft mindset kicks back in.

"Alright, NOW I build an amazing structure of awesome."

Plus they will be adding content with decent rapidity.  Plus if you're beating the game this fast it's probably not for you.    It's a game that seems to be built for the journey, not the destination.

For free?

In the form of updates, yes

The constant mobs in Terraria are annoying. I'm trying to explore, find interesting stuff and I'm having to hold off a horde of demon eyes and zombies that keep knocking me off hills. It's not even a blood moon.

HOLY CRAP.

On steam Terraria is ahead of Team Fortress 2 and Portal 2 on the "Most Played Games" list!

Hahaha, demon eyes and zombies. Those aren't that bad. The problem is places like the dungeons (angry skeletons EVERYWHERE, casters casters argh) and hell (fireimps *shakes fist* Serpents PitA, too, but those imps!).

Anyway, the normal night time stuff is pretty laid back compared to some places in the game. The spawn rate does seem pretty bloody wonky right now, though. Sometimes you'll go an entire night, not see more than 10 zombies, other times you'll have to kill or bypass 20+ just to get past a single bloody screen -- and that's not even on blood moon nights. It's crazy.

And worse in multiplayer.

That...explains a lot
We had a neverending wave of zombies spawning right outside our screen. It was paaiin, as we had to pass through them in order to reach for the exit

Generally, if you can't make progress because of too many enemies, you need faster ways of killing them.

On another notw, why is this map shitting copper and iron at me. It is the third night, and I've got a gold pick, 5 gold bars, 2 silver bars, 29 iron bars, 40 copper bars, and I've found a life crystal (didn't get it because no hammer) and a demon altar right under the spawn point. I like this map.

Oh, and several parts of the largest corrupted area overlap with and open into the underground jungle. Getting some of those shadow orbs will be Fun.

I haven't been so addicted to a game since DF first released. I've racked up 28 hours already. This is a nightmare for my productivity Damn you, Re-Logic!

Did anyone else flood hell? And the dungeon, before killing Skeletron? It's pretty epic trying to navigate a still-flooding dungeon with skeletons trying to kill you and causing new rooms to flood. The design is perfectly suited to it, too - lots of air pockets, doors everywhere, etc. It's madness. Best self-trolling I've ever done.

[Urist Imiknorris]

40 hours here.

 I think the phases of the moon affect spawn rates. It would be a neat thing and I remember the devs making a point about the moon phases, so here's hoping this is an actual thing.

[Peewee]

Insofar as I've been able to tell, the only thing you can't mine with a gold pick is ebonstone.

Anyway, re: Jungle, I went in with silver armor + mining helmet and an enchanted boomerang. Set up a little hornet farming station (4 blocks on left and right of character, two platforms just above), pointed my cursor up, and turned on autohotkey until I basically had full cobalt and enough stingers to make a thorn chakram. Then it was running around killing maneaters for vines and collecting roses until I had enough to finish the chakram and make an ivy whip. The occasional skeleton attack even got me my first hook, so it was all good.

You can set up an even better hornet farming station if do something like so:

Code: [Select]

PP###
OOCC#
#OCC#
#OCC#
#####
P = platform, O = open space, # = block-of-some-sort, C = Character. Then just shoot a rang (or flail-type weapon) out the opening. Can also just swing a sword or pickaxe, but that takes a lot longer. Then you just hold down the button (or toggle autoclick) until loot showers you from the sky.

It's not the hornets which cause me grief, it's the damn roses. I have 40 stingers and no roses to use with them.

[Urist Imiknorris]

Start cutting grass.

For the roses, you literally have to cut the roses off of the ground, so get to mowing that lawn!

Edit: Ninjaaaas!

Good news: Goblin raid!
Bad news: WHERE ARE MY FUCKING ROCKET BOOTS?! D:
