Terraria State of the Game - December 2024

Do you think the update will be released in the first quarter?

I'm pretty sure quarters can't run Terraria; they're just currency.

i think they meant first quarter of the year

Well, I haven't heard any news of the U.S. Mint hyper-upgrading the specs of their first 2025 quarter, but it's not outside the realm of possibility, I suppose.

View attachment 487915
Yes, this is the actual banner from the 1.2.4 launch...

As a special holiday gift, we are also releasing the latest in our line of "classic" builds (adding onto the release of Undeluxe 1.06 and First Final Update 1.1 earlier this year) - Terraria 1.2.4 is now available as a Steam Beta branch starting today! So, if you want to head back to a simpler time, maybe relive some amazing memories, or you've always wanted check out what Terraria was like way back before Moon Lord was even a thing, this is your chance!

To check it out, just right click Terraria in your Steam Library, choose Properties > Betas and then just select v1.2.4 from there!

We hope you enjoy the nostalgia - or experiencing the ancient days of Terraria for the first time!

If I recall correctly, a lot of the stuff such as like albino antlions and ocram and all that were console exclusive right?
So then they would not be in this update (downdate?) right?
Just curious.

That is most likely correct.

Way to increase health past 500 when? (Excluding lifeforce potions)

 

[xershadowtail]

I am hoping the console and cross-play improvements bring back Local WiFi support for Switch! Would also love to have a local LAN party with PC as well!

FTW Red Potions.

Pretty interesting.
Maybe a good idea to add a pirate heavy gun as a sellable (by Pirate's Captain) weapon? Like a pre-hardmode version of Vortex Beater?

"And silence reigns in this place...." One specific song that I'm really looking forward to hearing is King Slime's theme. An idea: Calamity's target dummy, to better understand the minions' dps

 

[Zallaraxium]

Ooh, that sounds a nice idea, Plague, though I admit I dont play summoner, I prefer melee, though I like having the Terraprisma as its the strongest summon weapon minion and it looks cool, though getting its a challenge.

 

[Terrarian pro]

I usually play on mobile, but if there’s any cool new update I would prefer bigger map, maybe a MASSIVE update would be nice.

no 1.2.4.1 for gog galaxy? oof. well i mean at least i have an offline backup installer for it

Unfortunately lots of games on gog don’t get constantly updated or are very late to updates

Isn't this month's State Of The Game coming out today? Weird....

Wheredja hear that?

 

[Impostor]

Dude, every last Thursday of every month the devs post the State of the Game. Just look.

The last Thursday of January is the 30th though

 

[Benry Gaming]

Just look.

Look where? I've never heard that

 

[Dapling]

Dude, every last Thursday of every month the devs post the State of the Game. Just look.

People have said it always comes out on thursday, friday, saturday, or tuesday over the years. It’s not consistent, and even if it was, the last thursday is in a week.

Like seriously people keep trying to find a pattern with it and every time they do the devs break it it’s so funny

Guys, look, I know this has nothing to do with the post, but I wanted to share my happiness at having my first game platinum. This is Blasphemous!! View attachment 489867

Hi there @Dr. Plague Vulture I wanted to give you a friendly reminder that the posts within threads should have something to do with the topic. For the future, if you'd like to share something like this, the best place would be on your own profile (your profile is here: Dr. Plague Vulture).

I seem to remember them always being posted on the last Thursday of the month. Looking back at previous threads, this pattern holds from December back to August in 2024. The July SOTG is listed as having been made on July 9th, but it appears to have been posted on the 25th (the last Thursday), which is when responding posts first appeared. Same goes for the June SOTG, listed as the 24th and being posted on the 27th (the last Thursday). Taking this possibility into account, I looked through all of them back to the September 2023 SOTG, and found that—unless I missed something—all of them within that span fit the last Thursday pattern, with the exception of the December 2023 SOTG.
