FraudulentEconomics posted:Oh you mean like spamming Chlorophyte bullets? Or using the Terrarian? Someone should complain about this stuff to them because wtf does this, dungeon and Helldiving do to shatter the balance of the game? Chests get locked so you have to progress the way we tell you to because...? Game's fully complete now and this stuff is just tweaks to make sure things work correctly and such so take the locks off already.

Gobblecoque posted:Yeah I'm not sure why the moon lord keeps getting buffed with each mini patch. The moon lord is like the culmination of dumb bullet hell poo poo to where my eyes just start to glaze over and I just said gently caress it and linked a teleporter from my arena to a room with the nurse and just sat around shooting chlorophyte bullets until it died. I'm no game dev so I'm bewildered too by this. First they started nerfing Developer yoyos which I didn't get since I thought the point of getting those was to be able to effortlessly tear through any enemies that you might encounter. At least they're not nerfing the weapons you get from killing the Moon Lord.

Asciana posted:So i've spent a week now in Hard mode and its amazing how quickly you go from being fragile to amazing in such a short time. Found a 50 dmg yoyo in hell and on the way back up found the skeleton merchant and promptly bought up the items for a Yoyo bag. That coupled with orichalcum armour is making light work of most enemies so far. That said I seem to have corruption creeping up on both sides of my base awfully quickly. Run out and dig up all the dirt and stick three blocks of something down far down the line. I've got a Hallow biome to the right of my base and I just stuck three Granite blocks down to stop it reaching the rest of my base. I just had a thought that might make Expert Mode more appealing. You know all those nerfs they gave for the OP weapons and combos like Vampire Knives and the Spectre set? What if they removed those while you were playing Expert Mode?

Man, since they're adding a few bits and pieces here and there I'd love for an accessory that lets you place blocks in midair without needing a backwall up . That and, like, a standing closet that'd let you swap styles and clothes colors whenever you want since we can already mess with hair.

omeg posted:Terraria's code is a horrible, horrible mess. I'm really surprised that they somehow manage to update it and not break everything. That said if they do manage to add proper mod support I'd be all over it. It can't possibly be worse than TF2's coding can it?  Xenaero posted:Crimson is so creepy. I love it. Wait you can make fleshy crimson furniture? That's even more creepy. It certainly makes you seem more insane when you make houses and such out of the stuff. It's weird looking at it now that the Crimson got creepy flesh furniture and the best the Corruption got was bricks and wall.

Motley posted:Is there a suggested Let's Play that I can watch to get started in this game? I feel a little overwhelmed with the amount of content there is and the correct way to approach it. I've been mining around and upgrading my tools but that is about it so far. It would be nice to get some direction or see a list of goals to work towards or something like that. I personally watched EthosLab's stuff. I think it was pretty good. Granted, they did a Hardmode playthrough so avoid watching it if you wanna save the surprises.

Gooooooood loving luck if you run into Granite or Marble anytime soon though.  Also, you're going to want to make a broadsword and a bow. Broadswords swing like a windmill but shortswords just jab out like a rapier and it's less useful since every enemy isn't going to just walk at you.

CJacobs posted:Hey I just started playing this game because I've owned it for like years and have only played 10-ish minutes of it prior to today. It's pretty fun and chill. There are a poo poo ton of materials and I have no idea what any of them do but I'm slowly figuring it out as I go. Okay, so, you're going to want a mansion. There are a ton of NPCs. Also 1) that hammer in the crafting menu shows you everything you can make in a grid instead of a column 2) Make a Broadsword because the shortsword kinda sucks a lot! The game is really good and I hope you'll enjoy it!

CJacobs posted:Wil do. I am currently swinging around a cactus that I made out of other felled cacti, which while it is funny, is not very useful. I'm assuming to get NPCs to move in all I have to do is have a free That cactus sword will actually do for now, since it's using a broadsword's swinging arc. And as for NPCs that's a part of it. The other part is fulfilling other requirements. For Example: I don't think the Merchant will move in until you have 50 or more silver.

Grenades don't destroy blocks and, as far as I remember, they're great for combat too so give those a shot. If you happen to gently caress up and throw one, at least you won't have to worry about breaking anything. You might kill yourself but that happens, it's fine. Oh! What sized world did you make?

Go over to the corruption, dig up three pieces of dirt in a line and put something like uhhh granite or marble if you've found it or maybe just a few pieces of ore down and it won't be able to spread past that.

Solumin posted:Not CJacobs, but I was going to ask the thread anyway: I've only played ranged characters in all my ~200 hours of Terraria. Are magic and melee worthwhile builds for solo play? I'm thinking about starting a new character soon (once I finish my mansion and defeat the moon lord...) and I was thinking I should try something new. It's quite fun. I just use a mix of whatever's available, bows, spells, a sword that I regularly use, etc. The only hurdle is getting enough stars at the beginning to make use of any spells.

CJacobs posted:It is, yes. There's also a pretty funny lack of foresight on the devs' part in regards to the naming of armor items. In the vanilla game files, armor is just named "Armor_(ID #)_(body part)", so "Armor_1_Head", et cetera. The problem is that they made male and female body parts use different sprite sheets instead of combining them, so all of the female armors are named "Female_Body_1" and so on. Hahaha, y-yeah that sure is a big goofy mistake they made, haha, I totally know what those words mean.
