Cool now you just need to bring back quick slots and multiple binding for the some buttons. This new update feels like it completely favors mouse and keyboard. Who's idea was it to give CONTROLLER 10 hotbars instead!? That's absurd especially with how little options you give us since we can't bind with multiple buttons.

……. Ummm…… they have provided so many combination ways, like you can click let’s say on ps4 controller, how things I have set up, L1 circle to quick buff, and just circle for grapple, there is so many combos…. And even better in fact, they give us so much more controls options…. And they have provided us with as much buttons as possible with combinations…..
 
Im back guys, and cripes, I knew there was a problem with the Empress Of Light potentially crashing the game and possibly her trophy, but the autosave bug and whatnot, what, have I missed something?

Okay? I used to have O for my interact AND my grapple, like so many people did. Just because they gave us more options like that doesn't mean it's better when they took away such an important binding option. And in fact if they go back and let us bind multiple buttons like before we could use the L1 circle and R1 circle and the like for the god awful hotbars they gave us in place of our quick slots
 
Hi @Loki and all, I am really enjoying 1.4. Thanks for you hard work.

Just wanted to add my voice to the requests for Redigit’s Pick controllers settings (with dpad snapping). It was a really great and intuitive way to play on a controller. Allowed precision when building, mining etc… It would be great if you could find a way to incorporate to into 1.4 down the track. It would be a shame if it was lost forever.

I also understand the dpad being used for shortcuts… nevertheless I love using the dpad for movement in inventory & crafting. Feels nice and snappy, and better than using a stick. I don’t know, it’s just a ‘feel’ thing. :)
(I’ve made custom changes to accommodate this, but thought It was worth noting.)

Anyway, loving the game. All the best. :) J

The whole thing about so many control options is a double edged sword. Yes there’s so many options for binding controls, but also, jesus there’s so many options for binding controls. It feels like there’s almost too many controls to keep in mind at times. Having so many options has basically made it impossible to simplify it to make it easier for high stress situations. Not to mention how many times the dual bindings with bumpers have, at least for me, messed me up due to switching my items without my intention to do so. Yeah, all the new control bindings is cool, but it’s not entirely a good thing either.
 
Ps4 constantly blue screens whenever we use pylons or whenever we die too many times the game will crash then PS4 hard crashes fully reset required happening only in multiplayer the host of the world is unaffected
 
Hey guys, I'm just adding some signs to my world, but I can't seem to get a break in the lines, I want it in a list but there's no option to move down a line? Any help am I missing something?
Thanks
 
Console Terrarians, it is here at last... welcome to Journey's End!

Initially released in May 2020 for PC, Journey's End brings Terraria to the next level, to a place where the core game can finally be called "complete". From new ways to play the game, to over 1000 new items to find and craft, to new bosses to challenge, and even a full-pass review of all content of the game for balance, graphic quality, and mechanics - truly, Journey's End has something for everyone. We cannot wait to see your reactions as you dive in to all that this update has to offer, and we hope that you thoroughly enjoy our gift to you. It has been an amazing journey indeed... but we truly feel that this end is really just a new beginning for the amazing world of Terraria.


This release will bring Console up to an equivalent (content-wise) of the 1.4.0.5 version of Terraria. Once all platforms are at least at this level (Nintendo Switch is next up!), the team will be focusing on bringing Console/Mobile/Switch up to content parity with the current PC version!

So, what awaits you in Journey's End? As you can imagine, this is a LOT to go over... so we are going to provide you with a topline summary along with links to the PC Changelogs and the Journey's End Review articles from earlier this year. While some things may not match 1:1 (such as UI/control differences and some features will be different), we feel this is an easy way to get you familiar with the content that is here at your fingertips. We will cover off some differences where we can. Ready to map out your Journey? Read on, loyal traveler!

TERRARIA: JOURNEY'S END (1.4) SUMMARY

THERE & BACK AGAIN: A SUMMARY OF JOURNEY'S END

Terraria: Journey's End contains so much in the way of content and new features, that we felt it would be best to refer you over to the main Journey's End Changelog from the PC launch for the full details. To be clear, at this point, there are a couple of things that are NOT supported by Terraria: Journey's End on Console:

Texture Packs & Modding are not currently possible on Console. This is something the team will explore as we move forward - but we cannot currently make any promises one way or the other.

Splitscreen + Online (in combination) Multiplayer is not currently supported - this will be explored at a later update, as we did not want to delay the launch to chase the many edge case issues this specific situation creates.

Chroma/RGB Effects are not currently supported on Console

Crossplay is currently not supported for Terraria - this is a feature that the team plans to explore once all active platforms are at content parity. We cannot promise whether or not we will succeed in this effort nor what form it will take, but we will attempt to make it a reality.



That being said, let's dive into a few of the more cool/bigger features:


index.php

NEW CHANGES SPECIFIC TO CONSOLE

A host of new settings and options, ranging from graphic quality to control profiles and much, much more!

Horizontal vs Vertical Splitscreen Toggle

Revised Gamepad mapping to account for the wide range of Journey's End controls - adjusted Defaults (Console Legacy, Advanced, Simplified) as well!

UI Changes to account for Journey's End Features

UI Editor - Check out the video above for details!

Keyboard and Mouse Support

index.php

NEW CONTENT
Over 1000 new items (beyond 1.3.5), bringing the total item count to over 5000!
New Critters to find, Enemies to Battle, and two new Boss Encounters!
New minibiomes
Blood Moon and Lava Fishing are expanded
Brand new epic Terraria Music
and much, much more!

index.php


JOURNEY MODE

Journey Mode provides a more accessible Terraria experience by placing the power to create the gameplay you desire in the palm of your hands. Research blocks that you dig up, items that you find, and enemies that you defeat in order to gain the limitless power to duplicate or to adjust the difficulty of the game to your whims. At last, you can have the Terraria experience perfectly tailored to your desires... the only limit is your imagination!

With Great Power Comes Great Accessibility - Introducing Terraria's New Journey Mode

How will all of this work on Console? Well this is where some of the new Console UI changes come into play. Here are just a few examples:


Research & Duplication are located within Inventory on Console - so you can Research, Duplicate, Craft, and Repeat all without leaving your Inventory Screen!



Control the Weather, Difficulty, Enemy Spawns... Godmode... and much more with your Journey Powers located in Settings!


index.php


MASTER MODE

MM-Test.png


A next-level challenge intended for those skilled, brave, or foolish enough to take it on, Master Mode represents the ultimate Terraria challenge. Unrelenting, Master Mode will punish your every mistake and force you to prepare and up your game like never before. Do you have what it takes to prove that you are a Master of Terraria?

GOLF

Time to hit the links in the world of Terraria! That's right, Journey's End brings the timeless game of golf to Terraria. Featuring an array of golf clubs, scorekeeping, and more, Terraria Golf introduces a whole new way to play. Create your own epic golf courses, share them with your friends, and then meet up on the links to challenge each other - who can hit the ball the longest, who has the best short game, and who has what it takes to make that clutch putt when it's all on the line?

BLOCK SWAP

giphy.gif



One of the most impactful Quality of Life changes perhaps to ever reach Terraria, Block Swap is one of those features that you will find yourself asking "how did I ever live without this?!" in no time at all. No more will you have to tear down your constructions first in order to spruce them up with new-and-improved blocks or walls! Simply grab the block with which you wish to replace the existing blocks and place away - the new block will be put in place, and the old blocks will be there for you to pick up.

As long as your currently-equipped pick is powerful enough to dig up whatever it is you want to replace, Block Swap is there to serve you well!

Oh... and did we mention it works on chests... without you having to empty them first?

index.php


VOID VAULT

(Wait, your inventory is full? Where is all that pricey furniture going exactly?!?)


O1O64xv.gif



Inventory overflow... you hate it too? Well, we have got the solution for you!

What on the surface appears to simply be the fourth available character storage item - the Void Vault - transforms into an automagical inventory overflow vacuum when combined with the Void Bag held by the player. This combination of items will immediately whisk away any items the player picks up once their inventory is full - and deposit them safely at home in the Void Vault for safekeeping. This won't totally eliminate all of your inventory woes, but it will certainly cut down on those trips to and from home base!

GRAVEYARD BIOME

Beware! For when too many tombstones gather together, the air shall chill and the mists roll in... what mysteries will you find buried six feet deep in the Graveyard?

FULL REBALANCE PASS ON ENEMIES AND ITEMS


As a part of Journey's End, the team examined and re-examined the balance of the content in the game. From start to finish, no stone was left unturned and no gear left unaccounted for. In the end, what remains is a full rebalancing of the game from top to bottom. Stats have changed, functionality has changed. There is no better time to start a fresh playthrough and experience the new Terraria for the first time!

Read all about the Revisit and Rebalance via the Article below!

BESTIARY & ZOOLOGIST NPC


The world of Terraria is so chock-full of content, it can be hard to keep track of it all! Sure, the Guide has you covered for crafting recipes and the Terraria Wiki is fantastic - but don't you wish there was a way to know more about your foes? Where can I find the Lost Girl? How much health does a Derpling have? How many coins can I get from farming Jellyfish? Wonder no more, for the Terraria Bestiary is here!

As you defeat foes, you will learn more and more about them - key stats, locations, drop rates, background info and more!

Learn all about the Terraria Bestiary by reading our Feature Article on the topic!

EXPAND YOUR TERRARIA EMPIRE - PYLONS, TOWN BUILDING, AND NPC HAPPINESS


During Journey's End development, we conducted a focus group with all of the Terraria NPCs. Outside of some very strange requests (no, Guide, we cannot 'remove all doors at night'), their feedback was very clear: they are tired of being shoved into tiny cubicles or L shaped tubes and they want you to know this!

In order to help raise NPC morale so that they could be at their very best - and to reward players who go that extra mile to treat their NPCs with the respect they deserve, we are introducing the NPC Happiness System. How does it work? What does this mean for you? We have provided some details below, but you can check out our full Feature Article on the topic linked below as well!


Expand Your Terraria Empire - Pylons, Town Building, and NPC Happiness


What affects NPC Happiness?
  • NPCs are happier when you locate them in biomes that they prefer​
  • NPCs are happier when they like their neighbors​
  • NPCs are happier when they are not overcrowded with other NPCs​

Adding nice furniture and aesthetics doesn't directly affect NPC Happiness... but it sure will make you feel better about yourself when your friends come over for a visit. ;)


What Happens if my NPCs are Happy/Unhappy?
  • NPC Shop prices will adjust based upon how happy each NPC is at the time​
  • If you make an NPC happy enough, you will gain access to a Pylon for that Biome (more on this below!)​

How can I tell if my NPCs are Happy?
  • You will notice a new dialogue option for Happiness for each NPC​
  • This will give you hints about what might make them happier as well!​

ROADS, WE WON'T NEED ROADS - INTRODUCING PYLONS


We briefly mentioned these mysterious Pylons in our section on things you can get with happy NPCs. So what are these, and why should you care? Well, if you have enough happy NPCs in a given biome, you will unlock the use of a Pylon for that biome. Pylons allow you to instantly teleport from one Pylon to another! With Pylons in place, your "big central base" now becomes an interconnected network of cool outposts all over the world, allowing you to get around quickly without the need to lay tracks or teleporters... and providing you a home away from home wherever you are!



Pylon 04.png



PYLON INSTRUCTION MANUAL

You can only have one Pylon of a given biome type placed at a time (so you can not have, for example, an Ocean Pylon at both Oceans)

Pylons must be placed in their aligned biome in order to function (you can place them anywhere else, but they will not work!)

Pylons must also have two nearby (and living) NPCs in order to function - again, the idea here is to reward building those bases/towns! :)

Pylons cannot be used during Boss Battles or Invasion Events!

zUq6pUA.gif

Pylons are quite easy to use. Once placed in their aligned biome, you simply click on a nearby pylon. This will take you to the map screen where you can locate another placed pylon to which you want to teleport, click it and off you go!


index.php


Journey's End has so much more to find and experience - we hope this very top-level summary has made you more familiar with some of the bigger features.
