Added a teleport from the tutorial down to the dock, rather than the suicidal fall. Warp plates ftw.

I need to get into the habit of actually getting on there.

I just destroyed the third orb and got the message "Eater of Worlds has awoken". I immediately teleported home where I've built a platform to fight) but he didn't follow.
I checked and there's no more shadow orbs in the worlddo I have to fight him in another world?
No, you can craft worm food, and use it when you're above corruption to summon him. Also, the platform you build has to be over corruption. If you leave corruption he despawns. Unless your "home" is in corruption, it sounds like that was the problem.
Ah I forgot the worm food, thanks. I seem to remember EoW chasing me to my home from early versions, it seems that has changed.
Not really a Terraria update (I think), but its something we all might find interesting:
Tiy (the guy who did the sprite work for Terraria), recently posted this on Twitter:
And before that, his background changed to this:
He tweets the following:
I have no idea what I'm looking at, but I want it, dammit.

Yeah, that's what I thought, that's why I said it might be Terraria related.
Not going to hold my breath though. Before, Tiy did post that pic of Cathy, and we never got her yet in the game.
Wouldn't 1.2 be the next big patch? And didn't we just have 1.1, which was hugeeeeeeeeeeee! Like December 1st IIRC. So why would we get 1.2 any time soon lol. Although I understand for them to keep the player base interested they need to release updates and shit like bi-weekly or even weekly since players go through the new huge content in a matter of days.
I wouldn't be against them adding quest elements or something. They should also add a money tree because that would be sick as hell. Gotta plant it in Platinum dirt or something haha and it give you like 50 gold per in game day.
Also, HaRyu, what does w/c mean? I thought which considering, but you have used it differently. And it obviously doesn't mean wrong chat.

I also want whatever I'm looking at in those screens
I'd certainly like some more content. I bought the game with a friend when 1.1 came out, and we blew through it. Now there's not really much for us to do other than mine for materials to make the best weapons and armor. So 1.2 can't come soon enough for us

I can't kill that stupid giant eye.
Want some help? I'd be more than willing to put on some noob gear and help a brother out
Alternately, try shurikens.

Shurikens and Unholy Arrows work well since you can fire them straight up, killing the little eyes and hitting the boss. Then they fall back down and may hit him again. Stay with ranged weapons and buff up before the fight.
Oh god... please don't tell me I've been using that stupid abbreviation for years, with no one knowing what the hell I'm typing?
I have always been under the impression that: "w/c" is shorthand for "which".
Don't ask me where I learned that, pretty sure it was college, but all those days are hazy... too much beer.
Just checked with some of my other buddies on chat, and I asked them if they knew what the hell I was typing when I wrote: "w/c". They all said "which". I then asked them if they only knew that because I keep typing it, or they knew that from somewhere, and it looks like they knew it from somewhere, but cant recall where.
Huzzah.
I see L&R buttons. But the images look too much like a mock-up of something to me.
Edit:
Uh...what happened with the Eater of Worlds? I made a thin platform above the corruption to fight him and it turns out that he can't teach me. So all I do is just latch on the platform and blast him away with the Space Gun. Didn't even take any damage. I don't remember it being this easy pre-1.1.

- Terraria has been translated to German, Italian, French, and Spanish.
- When first run, Terraria will ask which language to use. This can be changed in the options menu.
- Terraria now has support for accented letters and multiple keyboard layouts.
- Fixed a bug that would cause spawn items to sometimes not work on multiplayer games. (Hopefully)
- Fixed a bug that would allow you to create items using the crafting guide.
- Fixed several multiplayer security issues.
- Fixed a bug that would sometimes cause the Eater of Worlds to not spawn after three shadow orbs had been smashed.

And for good reason.
And for better reason.
I really love the look of that, but at the same time I want it to be Terraria 2.. (with slightly larger and more detailed sprites)
More of the "not-really-Terraria-news-but-some-mystery-game-that-suspiciously-looks-like-a-sequel-to-Terraria" news/tidbits.
Tiy tweeted this:
In server related news... ehh, might just ditch the whole Tshock mod thing and run a stock vanilla server. Haven't really made a decision yet. Opinions welcome.

Yeah, but I'm in desperate need of new content.

I'd definitely like some new content now too, but still having a ball with this one regardless. Almost 300 hours now.
One of my friends from the UK has picked it up recently, so I started a new character again and we've been going through on the weekends. Never gets old.

I made a new thread: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=460767
Please post future updates there. Thanks.
Apologies for the Double Post, but...
Pickaxe looks like it's made out of cheap plastic, if it were pewter or something durable I'd probably actually use it.
Not sure I'll pick this up, I already own the game so I'd only be buying it for a pet bunny... and I'm not one of those people who go apeshit over stuff like that. Hopefully Redigit's kid gets born soon and we can get some info on the next patch.
Of course, if people want to get on Harlan's server (which is usually up, you know), avalanch and I have been building stuff lately.
Redigit said:We are pleased to announce that the Terraria Collector's Edition is now available for pre-order on Amazon now for the UK and Germany! The UK version will start shipping March 16th, and the German version will start shipping March 1st.
(click for larger version)
The Collector's Edition contains:
Physical copy of Terraria
Pickaxe key-chain with the Terraria logo
Terraria poster
Terraria trading cards
Unique in-game pet bunny!
We are still working on getting the Collector's Edition to the US and other countries. Thanks for your patience and we will let you know as soon as a US version is available. (Source)

I would consider picking it up just to show my support. £13.97 is something like $20, and the extras would be a consolation prize to knowing I gave money to a group of developers I really like. It'd be the same as if they put Terraria up on Kickstarter to keep supporting it (which they don't have to do, honestly).
But yeah, the last patch really threw me off; on one hand, I loved the amount of new content. On the other hand, Hardmode kind of detonates the building aspect (literally in some cases) so I am reluctant to do more than create a Harvest world. I suppose there's nothing wrong with that, but I feel like I have to keep my homeworld frozen in time or risk destruction.
I Love Terraria and I still play it once or twice a week (more lately just because I've been in the mood), can't wait to see what's next.

In the same boat, 300 hours in I don't feel I need to buy the game again, even a collectors edition. Nonetheless, it's an awesome bundle for a beginner. Very cool.
Also looking forward to the next patch, really gagging for new content again.

Wait, did they just call Terraria an online role-playing game? Wouldn't that make people think of MMOs, rather than what this actually is? XD
Still hilarious that he made that mistake.
Also, I'm rather new here, don't hurt me
Been lurking for a while and just got approved, have 177 hours in Terraria so far.

The line about wanting to better himself as a programmer and game designer, along with the constant stream of displeasure from the TShock mods makes me think that Terraria was somewhat of a fluke; a great game concept that the creators simply put together before they were really ready.
Kind of a bad day, really loved the hell out of this game and I hope somebody else picks up development. Seems kind of a shitty time to stop working on it considering they're just now getting around to a retail version.

Well if they are going to stop working on it, might as well pass it on to someone who wants to like the Gaslamp guys. Better than nothing.

Can only hope they pass the torch onto Gaslamp.
It's still great in its current form, I'll still be playing it obviously, but it's a shame that the planned updates and add-ons will never be realised.
