Official Console and Mobile updates ETA

As long as we actually get the missing parts in the update after this one, I'm okay with it.

As several people have already mentioned, most players would rather get most things from the update and NOT have their game crash instead of getting all the parts of the update and losing all their worlds and characters.
 
Hello console and mobile Terrarians!

We are in the home stretch! The teams are submitting the updates to the various platforms this week. This includes XB1, X360, PS4, PS3, PSVita, Windows Phone, iOS, Amazon, and Google Play. If all goes well, you should be playing the update by Christmas! Once we have approvals, I will try to update you with the details.


Mobile users will be 100% up-to-date with PC 1.2.4, barring any technically-impossible things.

Consoles (XB1, X360, PS4, PS3, PSVita) will be missing a handful of content (listed below) that will be added during Q1 of 2016 due to the new and improved QA team being rockstars. This ultimately left us with a choice: more content with more bugs, less content with fewer bugs, or an approximate 2 month delay. We decided that providing a more stable game within the time window that we gave is most important, so we prioritized the bug fixing over the missing content or the delay. Again, our plan is to add the missing content – along with any additional fixes needed that come up post-launch – as soon as possible in early 2016. We feel it's the best path overall and will continue to keep you as up-to-date as we can.

Very excited for Console and Mobile getting another step closer to 1.3! <3
Has the load failed bug when loading a world been addressed and fixed? If so will we be able to access a world in which this occurred? Love the game btw. Truly a work if art. Sadly I haven't played much since this happened to me several months ago for obvious reasons.
 
This update is pretty amazing, though I'm waiting for capes, dyable wings, etc. This is solely so I can make some epic custom vanities. I also plan on getting a computer late next year or so, in which I will buy Terraria for PC too.
 
They working so hard we need to wait year for a bugfix!
ps vita version is unplayable now! You have any idea how many things i lost and needed to build over and over agin because of 505 maggots that can't even bring bugfix without major updates!
I was waiting so long for 1.2.3 and shroomite digging claw, boreal wood, glass kiln and half of the update is missing! Then i saw on wiki optic sttaff! It could be awesome to have twins flying around! But it was for 1.2.4 and i know only about second half of 1.2.3 going out and then i saw announcement of 1.2.4! My excitement exploded! And 505 games putted me down. Story was about to repeat all over agin and i feel sad and disappointed :dryadcry:
I can't take it anymore!

I can't say much in agreement, but I will try to make sense of it. He is still very, very, very, very, very, very, very upset. I'm not saying he's in the right. I already made some more points for him in an earlier post. He's just fed up, and this may be a form of release for him.

BUG SPOTTED !!!!

The Beetle armor set bonus does not correspond to what it is supposed to do... Mine actually increases the minions damages.

Bug found on console!

If you type gold on the signs, it pops up as censored. To label gold items with signs is impossible. The signs will allow golden but not gold! Makes me want to give the signs a real golden shower, not with the spell book!

If there is an actual place to post about bugs, point me in that direction. I find a new bug about once a day between the Consoles and Mobil.

I was hoping your bug was from the new update.... oh, well ;)
