It looks like they're grown, but the water level makes it hard to see them. Try hitting one and see if you get seeds. That's more than enough water.

Terraria |OT3| 1.2 many things to dig...
- Thread starter Retro
- Start date
Guess the Halloween patch is supposed to go live tonight. Here's the patch notes, such as they are; https://docs.google.com/document/d/15h6WlLtCSNDF5_MLPUY-27icQI7FhYZEGRCJEG58f6Y/preview?sle=true
Eh... if that's the case, server will be down until the TShock mod is updated to match the upcoming Terraria update. (There's no helping it, if you guys update, you wouldnt be able to get into the server anyway, because it would be essentially running on an old version)
When I update everything, I'll make sure to post to let you all know the server is up.

Did it come out just moments ago I haven't seen steam updating anything or did I miss it.
It's definitely out by now.

So much new stuff ! This is awesome 
I had taken a break from playing, but now I'm looking for new stuff ! I suppose the NeoGAF server will stay non-hardmode since it is mainly for building stuff ? I still have to see the new Pumpkin Moon event.

It honestly depends on what's the average strength of the players who come on the server. If most of who come on can take hard mode, I can probably pull the trigger. Or maybe put up a 2nd server strictly for hard mode.
Oohh. Interesting. I can manage that. Pretty easy to set that up. Thanks!
Edit: found around 50 ores tonight. I planted 1 inside a big chunk of mud in about 10 different places. Let's see if it grows
Its down until the mod software is updated. I just got home, so I havent checked yet.
If you're not at a point where you can use teleporters yet, this super fast lift glitch might be useful. Bit wood intensive but it works great.

The new pumpkin moon event is pretty mean. I'm using stat potions and imbues just to survive and kill as many things as I can, which is a nice change from just vampire knife tanking anything I can't kill in two seconds. Even set up a trap area for the whole thing, which isn't something I normally do. I've made it to wave 13 at the highest. By then, you have to kill so many things to get to the next wave that I don't see how one person alone could do it.
Spectre Armor + Magnet Sphere + Inferno Fork = LOL EZ
What the heck is all that fire on the ground level. Is that yours? How are you doing that?
Those are flame traps taken out of the Lizhahzhard temple. I toggled them to the background with actuators. For some reason, they're bugged right now to give you life when they do damage and you're wearing Spectre Armor, which might be part of what's confusing you.
Ahh. wow. that's crazy. Thanks
Too bad I'm nowhere near that point. Haven't even beaten plantera yet. No pumpkin moon for me.
That was some incredible healing. I want that spectre armor lol.
Yeah, it's pretty ridiculous. With enough enemies, you can live through anything so far. I still like to use a melee set otherwise though. High defense and vampire knives work well with general exploring and enemy killing.Ahh. wow. that's crazy. Thanks

Hmm. Wonder what a heart lantern does. I've been leaving heart pieces all over the world since I rolled a new one.
Probably a red palette swap of the Star Lantern.

Destroyer is definitely the easiest. Plantera can be easy if you fight it in an appropriate arena. Twins are next and finally Skeleton Prime.
Thanks!

Just bought this the other day on my PS3, played about twenty minutes just arsing around. Watched a couple of beginner's tip videos on YT, but is there anything I need to know before I get stuck in properly?
The only big thing I can think of (without flat out telling you the typical progression of the game) is to talk to the guide when you don't know what to do. His help as far as what you can craft with specific items tends to be very helpful. If an item says Material on it, you can make something out of it and find out what that is by asking the guide.

That's the first guy, yeah? I take it one of the first things to do is build a house to hide in (and one for him)? I got my arse kicked by zombies and the flying eye when I last played. Or is it better to build a cave/house as my base and then dig down and explore from there?
Yeah, you should start with the guide on any new world. You don't have to build him a house, but it's easier to keep him and yourself from dying if you do so. You'll want to build a lot of houses eventually anyway to attract all the other NPCs to your world, who will only move in when you have empty housing. It's up to you whether you want to have your housing above, below, or on ground. Just be aware that if you go underground, you'll have to knock out the back wall and place your own walls.
Starbound is headed up by a spriter who worked on Terraria.
Neither. Starbound was designed by Terraria's artist, who left when it was essentially abandoned for more than a year.
No idea who is involved with Edge of Space, but Starbound is probably the game you want if you're looking for more Terraria-like gameplay.

Anyone know if the console versions will get any of the recent PC updates?
No clue. It's a completely different company that handles the console ports and they don't really interact with the community on a regular basis as one would hope / expect for a game like this.

Ugh, I tried playing this on my PS3 last night and the controls aren't good. Building a house is much harder than it needs to be; I struggled around for about 10 minutes before quitting. I'll try again tonight.

Finally started playing again after a long year. Don't have my old character, so I started a new one. Finally got myself a starfury and was hyped, until I realized that 1.2 shit on that weapon hard. It used to be good. =[ Now it just does this one tiny star that just suuuuucks.
These new biomes are a pain in my ass too. I don't remember all of these biomes like jungle, hornets, and snow.

I finally got the game during the PS3 sale and I really like it. I don't have a clue where to begin though, or have any rhythm on what I should be doing during the day/night. So far I built a very basic house with a bench/anvil/furnace, and made a basement that I just keep digging down in.
Any little beginner tips? I want to figure most of it out as I go, but some minor pointers might guide me in the right direction.

Make a hook asap, most important early game item next to potions, basic armor, and if you're lucky a Cloud in a Bottle.
