OK, i want your reaction: You are 1.1 player, and i least minute comes this video:
Really. :guidesmile:

It was the most exciting thing ever at the time. Being able to walk automatically over 1 block tall tiles, new tree types, better backgrounds, an Eater of Souls pet, the Terra Blade, and painting! Terraria is going through a revolution. That's when I knew that 1.2 would be the revolution that was promised back around January 2013 and it was!
 
Ohmygosh, a week left until June!.. Sooo close...:joy:

Yeah, I know that 1.3 is more likely to come out in the middle or the end on June, but still.
 
I hope they don't give a firm date. Why? Because a firm date really just means two bad things:

1. If it unexpectedly takes longer, the date must be delayed and causes disappointment
2. If it is finished faster than expected, they have to wait until the date to release it and can't just release it as soon as it's done

I imagine the update is mostly done now at this point though, all that would be left to do is extensive bug testing and maybe a few last minute additions.

Yeah, the update should be mostly done by now. Otherwise i don't think that they can pull June as a release date off, if it still isn't finished (apart from bug fixing of course.)

The next spoiler could be really exciting, because the firm date could be revealed. Why? Well because it's only one week until June - at this point in time the release date and trailer for 1.2 were also revealed.
 
Here is what I found out about the most recent spoiler, as well as conclusions:
-New Minecart
-New Underworld background
-1.3 to be released on June 30th
-New texture for Hellstone and Hellstone bricks
-New texture for Mythril ore
-Lava droplets
-New banners
-Blackhole Beater: New gun
-New Drill and New Axe, redesigns of the Cobalt ones?
-An unknown item... beetle pet?
-New fire weapon.
-New cobalt staff?
-Portal Gun
-Two new blocks that appear to be made of Copper(?) and Gold. Or they could just be resprites.
-New background objects
-New campfire that I think has been seen before
-New demonite brick texture?
-New biome? We have seen it before, but the background turns from an old one to a new one.
-New brick? Metroid Prime reference?

The video in reference is on this forum.

Nope, pretty sure that's not a new biome but an event triggering closer to the overworld (If you're talking about the end segment).
I doubt it's just an all-biome thunderstorm event, considering it took place when the player came close enough. It's likely biome dependent in any case, or at least dependent on the fact that you're close to the overworld and not in the sky.
It makes for an excellent transition, which is probably what they went for.

And yes, that's definitely the portal gun.

I doubt it's a new minecart, but rather the new mount-dying system in action that we saw wth the party bee, using a new dynamic dye. The minecart buff symbol was the same as ever.

Edit: one more speculation: we are going to get new campfires for every torch type. We already saw a rainbow campfire, and now we have a demon one.

My biggest excitement (other than the obvious something going on with the Lunar Boss music! :guidegrin:) is that this Underworld background change could mean that the normal Underground gets an overhaul as well!

Just think of all the parallax-y goodness to go around! :guideeek:

It would be awesome if they could do that, though I'm not sure how they would pull it off...
