Crimson was added in 1.2 along with lots of other content, why should the Cyber be any different?
Yeah, and how long did 1.2 take? Over a year of development. Undoubtedly, the implementation of Crimson took a decent chunk (I'd put an estimate at at least a quarter) of that time. If they were to add Cyber in 1.3 the amount of time taken to finish off the update would likely shoot the release date into early 2015, assuming it isn't already there. It's already become clear that some people aren't that patient.
Hey Zoomo I've known your suggestion for a long time but it is just now that I have read it throughly and I find it really interesting although there are some things bothering me like how you didn't quite develop the palette that is illustrating the robots and the environment, it all looks so generic and gray-scaled.
So I sprited this robot thing to show you what I mean, it could be more colorful:This is also a bad example because it's not futuristic looking but my points on the colors.
Also.. Cyan Ice xP
Also.. Flappy Bird
i fail to see what you mean there... it looks totally out of place in terraria, like i said before, it's like putting Borderlands into something like CoD, putting a Cartoon-ish art-style into a Real-ish Art-style. Terraria has a nice, smooth like Art-style where As Starbound Has a Brighter more in-depth Art-style, which this Suggestion is sorta taking on, making it look totally out of place! The Hardmode bosses Aren't all in-depth like how starbound has its textures.
you know,it, i'm not gonna bother going on with this, it's not even gonna lead anywhere.
in short, IMO, the suggestion is bad and the Art-style would be more suit'd for the likes of Starbound.
Edit: Also, "a worthy alt for the Crimson", An Alt of an Alt, gg.
I cleared that up in the title but seriously the first few paragraphs explain what it is, and it's not an alt to generate instead of the corruption or crimson.
I concur- the design of the sprites works just fine for the intended purpose. It's a land of order, after all- of course the machines will all be uniform in color.A lot of people have suggested that I make the colour pallete more diverse and I originally did experiment with that however I didn't like a lot of the results and I wanted the mobs to feel as streamlined as the rest of the biome, with only small deviations from the theme like the copbots padding and the welder and oiler. I may experiment more with the themes behind the mobs but I'm still not sure about revamps as I like the current designs. We'll see though.
The Crimson added about 40-50 items, 7 enemies, and 1 boss. 1.2 update contained about 1000 items, 125+ enemies, and 4 bosses. I doubt the Crimson was anywhere near the main cause for the length of time required for development, especially considering most of it (like the Cyber would be) was based on existing entities that are easily duplicated, such as existing weapon types and mob AIs.
Take a look at the original Megaman (1987)..A lot of people have suggested that I make the colour pallete more diverse and I originally did experiment with that however I didn't like a lot of the results and I wanted the mobs to feel as streamlined as the rest of the biome, with only small deviations from the theme like the copbots padding and the welder and oiler.

.. machines should not be all uniform in color, reasons behind this are: different parts, different materials, different shapes, different types. Even in a 'land of order' you still need an organization & a pyramid. Now if Zoomos' aim is a biome where every enemy resembles another without considerable variation in color | shape | material | parts |
In the post you never actually said what it would be. Cores of flight?
But PC doesnt even have Ocram, would it be added with this so in corruption worlds you can get souls of blight?
Durasteel Bar
from: Dropped -
The Peacekeeper 100% (15-30)
So, the bosses are now called the peacekeepers?
Did you mean to have dropped from all the bosses? It seems weird that the Peacekeeper would get 6 different banners.Banners
from: dropped -
The Peacekeeper 0.4%
That's why I tell people to read my previous suggestions. In pc my idea is that they would be dropped by the Peacekeeper, an mech for the queen bee.
The colours don't matter, it's the palette in it's entirety that matters, if you have purple, green and yellow you can't do poo, and you sure can do more with a light/dark yellow and a yellow:
The palette is just the colors in different shades..
It converts all earthly ores- I sincerely doubt that will be a problem given the sheer quantity of them.
As an actual pixel artist I can tell you firsthand that Crimson has just as much color variety as Cyber- red. Everything is red. If it isn't red it's yellow, which in case you didn't know is a very close color. Cyber has primarily grays, but also incorporates cyan (which is on a very different side of the color spectrum, as grays have no hue, which puts them under red), a bit of yellow, and even some black. Whereas in Crimson literally everything is red. Red, pink, yellow. That's it.
