3DS Terraria 3DS 1.04 - issues thread

[MemoryVoid]

Same. Also, shoutout to Loki for promising to ask the team what is going on and then telling us what they said...about a couple of months ago now. Like what the heck man? Nothing should be kept a secret, if there will be updates, just say there will be but don't tell us the details. Or if the 3ds is abandoned, just freaking say it!

Half a year! And nothing. I don't care if there won't be updates anymore, just give us an official word rather than hide or run away.

I have a Switch, but don't expect me to buy your game again for a portable 1.3.

 

[Loki]

No one is hiding.

You know what I know - which is the last official word was that old 3DS was already bursting at the seams content wise and that *maybe* n3DS could hold some more features or whatnot at best...but that 1.3 wasn't happening. Last we all heard, that was predicated on "how well the game did on 3DS" over some period of time.

I ask when I can, but if you think I am hiding some direct answer, then I don't know what to say. Almost all of the focus for the last little bit has been on the crunch time push to 1.3 for console (on that side of the house). I mean, I would say it's sort of the same thing I am assuming given the open time with no clarity there (aka the game on n3DS didn't hit whatever mark was set). If that's the case, I still maintain it's a solid, albeit openly limited port of Terraria.

Not saying some people haven't had issues - but I know they tried to track each one down that they could. I have no way to say what the tech side of their QA or dev teams at CG directly found, etc. If this is indeed the "end of updates" for 3DS as it was for old gen console, then it's still a solid game - though I also completly understand some people won't be satisfied.

All that said, I will push again on this week's call by raising the exact criteria given (did it do "well enough" or is it done). Silence on my part isn't out of hiding - I just try my level best to not speak until I have all of the info and am confident in the answer.

I have a new 3DS!!! Please, please, PLEASE ADD IMP AND HORNET STAFF!! That's all I ask!
[doublepost=1497676056,1497675887][/doublepost]Mainly because my superspawn water candle edge of world farm isn't giving me slime staff and neither is my AFK one. And prehardmode mimics from chest statues are NO HELP.
[doublepost=1497676509][/doublepost]

Huh.. So it was my chlorophyte armor thatcaused the crashes.. Well, who knew nature was so lethal..

Well there's enraged plantera.
And when I was a noob dragon snatcher killed me. I'm not a noob anymore tho. Unless I'm put in hard mode. But prehardmode...
Eater of worlds ran away from me!!
It left! Then I put pink Eskimo on and it doesn't know what's deadly...

With the announcement that the 3DS will be supported beyond 2018, and with 65 million 3ds console sales thusfar, I ask the makers of terraria to reconsider how this forum and the 3ds development is being supported. The game is very playable, and as we can see from the 37 page long bugs thread it has some issues. In previous patch version threads the developers were quick to respond with updates regarding the development. In the present we are left completely in the dark. The 3ds, and terraria for 3ds, could easily make sales for the next 24 months. However, the state of this thread is messy. There are many MINOR complaints, and we are receiving no feedback that MINOR bugs are being worked on. I believe this reflects badly in the thread, which in turn reflects badly on the game itself; unnecessarily.

It's all in the details. A little goes a long way.

Leaving a 20 dollar game buggy, barely playable, and laggy beyond the point is freaking devastating. This port had so much potential yet it was left and abandoned.
But I can kinda see a sparkle through a crack. Maybe after the 1.3 update for mobile and consoles come out, maybe some words on this version will spill out of deanzor's mouth. 1.3 for those versions were announced last july, so we do have some hope.

Do you guys, even care about the 3DS Version anymore because I got myself a bug where my world will crash when it gets to quarter of the loading line. I have reason to believe my world is corrupted worst of all it's my main world, I refuse to delete it it's my main world. Is there any way to fix it, or could 505 games send a new update soon to fix my(and everyone else's ) worlds

 

[SCHLURBBB]

lol my 3ds world thinks its Christmas (even though its not, and I haven't changed my 3ds internal clock.) the mobs are dropping presents, santa came in a vacant room, and its just been weird

 

[MirageTempo]

Thank you Loki, for always trying to get us any information you can, it's greatly appreciated that someone cares enough to respond. I really don't believe that the devs would just abandon this port without any warning like this. As someone who has never really had any of these issues with corrupted worlds or constant crashing outside of an anomaly here and there(apparently I can leave the game on overnight while I sleep to grind loot and coins and never have any issues, but farming Chaos Elementals for a Discord Rod crashes me every 20 minutes???), I honestly feel bad for even booting up the game when I know there are people out there who can't even enjoy that much. I hope we can get some sort of news soon.

 

[plug313]

I don't even expect any new content...
I just want to be able to play my game.

 

[MemoryVoid]

I expect items to not vanish from the inventory and for weapons to work as intended

 

[Afterburn]

Possibly a feature or just a slight bug is that if you have a debuff/buff you don't like, if you go into your inventory screen, the world's time will stop, you can't move, you don't take damage, time of day doesn't pass, etc, as it should. However, if you go into your debuff/buff screen (press 'x' on the character screen) when you rollover a debuff/buff, the debuff/buff countdown continues, allowing to use potions one minute apart in real time, and resume where you left off. This trick has saved my skin plenty of times, and allowed me to beat the mechanical bosses.

Nah I already knew about that but I think its what cause it

My two sons and myself play Terraria on our 3DS all the time. I have the New 3DS XL and they both have the 3DS XL and we have no game breaking issues at all... The one issue we DO have is when fighting the brain, only the host sees the creepers... To me, this has been a great Terraria experience!

Then I guess you are lucky good luck on fixing the brain problem.

Quick question!
Is there going to be hardcore anytime soon?

Ehhhh idk but I doubt it

 

[Cosmi]

Drat! Oh well, it was still worth asking

 

[Afterburn]

Drat! Oh well, it was still worth asking

But I honestly don't know

I like the 3ds port! Yes, pc is cheaper, but cant really play on pc (seeing as I don't have one) But it is solid! (At least mostly) It runs in my old 2ds fine and I play it a lot! Most of my problems is related to the fact that I lost my stylus.

Also on an unrelated note,Maybe a 3ds theme? Lol
Top screen is above ground and bottom is below ground (I can also provide more details)Chances of that are as low as The chance that I will get a slightly newer phone in the near future (a.k.a., 0.000001% or lower)
[doublepost=1498282022,1498281948][/doublepost]And also, Terraria 3ds takes about as much battery life as playing an Original DS game on a 3ds on my ds (Seeing as I don't have 3d on my DS
[doublepost=1498282531][/doublepost]How do I as my signature? It's funny

 

[Thorthegreat12]

Recently experienced multiplayer for the first time on the 3DS version and I'm surprised by how well it worked. Guess the news of how "buggy" and game braking it was freaked me out. Overall, the experience was fantastic, working flawlessly. There are, however, a few invisible enemies on the second players screen like the Creepers issue.

Thanks Loki for your response!

 

[SilveryStars]

Yes, we have the best mobile in terms of that our building mode RULES!!
All I want is to be able to link with my buddy on her tablet and shower her with goodies... the only issue is the 3DS exclusives that may make Nintendo mad if they are on non-Nintendo platforms...
