PC Terraria N00b Skrub Question

[The Terraria Swag Beast]

Okay so I have a question that is stupid... Does Terraria need Wi-Fi to play? Thank you for all answers.

 

[LoveSpreader]

Nope.

 

[The Terraria Swag Beast]

Nope.

Are you sure? Whenever I try without Wifi I lag until I get like 2 frames a second ._.

 

[LoveSpreader]

Yes. The only requirement to play it is that you are logged on onto steam(which can be done offline if you saved the particulars) for steam version. Not entirely sure about GoG version, but I'm guessing it's a direct download and can be run without going through any other client(like steam) to run the game. If you have issues like the one you said, the problem is likely on your end. You could post your specs here and see if someone could offer a better solution to the problem.

Sure, lately I'm playing Terraria mostly via mobile networks. Yes, it's sometimes really laggy but also sometimes better than wi-fi. It's all about network load for sure.

Yeah for me it lags until I get like 2 fps. And its way better over strong wifi. Also how is it better than wifi sometimes?

Its possible that your system runs more poorly over a hardline connection than wi-fi . . . but that's all likely related to your specific router and network setup.

Regardless, wifi is not required for Terraria.

Why does it lag really hard when I don't use Wi-fi then?

As I said:

A hardline connection is generally better than wifi, but not always. You may have a really solid wifi connection.

Okay Thanks.

Just your router starts working improperly and suddenly you will be fine with mobile. Or just the internet network is having an issue so nobody can't be able to use wired or wireless connection, unless via mobile. I had this many times...
