Terraria State of the Game - September 2020

Status
Not open for further replies.
well, i'm finally back after taking a month-long break from this place... the toxicity last time was just too much.

so 1.4.1 will be done in october, mobile 1.4 will probably be done soon after, but then they'll have to add in the 1.4.1 stuff, which will probably delay console 1.4 even more.

yeah, not expecting console 1.4 until next year at the earliest... which sucks, cause it's the only thing that has been on my mind this year, making it hard to enjoy any other games, despite the fact that i have well over 100+ of them in my backlog.

also, the build-up to october... cool temperatures? fall leaves? halloween?

i haven't seen cool temperatures in years... last winter was, on average, about 80 degreees... which should NOT be possible, but with the planet dying and all that... i guess the weather is seriously screwed up.

the winters where i live always used to be fiercely cold... but it hasn't been cold like that for so long, now.

and fall leaves... the trees don't even transition, anymore... they stay green, then just... die overnight, it seems.

at most, they might become a depressing dark brown... i haven't seen red/orange/yellow leaves in YEARS...

and halloween... again, neither i nor anyone i know has seen much of a presence, if any at all, of trick-or-treaters in years... and this year, they're DEFINITELY not gonna be present, due to the world-ending pandemic ravaging earth.

not really a time for parties, either... i imagine christmas will be just as depressing, it usually is.

so... yeah, not really enough to lift my mood, yet.

the year has only gotten worse since last time, so even seeing some form of 1.4 on console isn't enough to help.

see you guys next month, i guess. %:sigh:
Where on Earth do you live?
 
Well,Happy Halloween for 1.4.1 PC and 1.4 for Mobile. I'm 2 excited for that. I'm gonna bought a new controller or fix my old one to defeat the empress with Zenith on my phone. Also, thnx for the month release date. KEEP ON GOING!!!!!😁
 
A shame to see 1.4 for console be put on the backburner probably until either December or next year but its good to see mobile and 1.4.1 has a release month, and that a build for console does exist. Still hate to see no content for console terraria until next year though communities on console are pretty much non existent anyways back to binging adventure time till next month

Man, I honestly don't feel like I'm ready to see this wonderful journey come to an end. So much has changed, so many of us changed and grew up.

All, I'm left with is awe. An awe that can be liken to being a senior in high school/early college on the verge of graduating (within the final week) and becoming an "Adult" while gaining the keys to the car that will take me onto the highway that extends towards infinity...

How will I go on? How will this slab, that is my life play out? Will I let it roll on like a roll of film? Or will I direct it like an artist with the precision of a fine brush? Will it be a mix of both? Will it be neither? Or something else entirely? Will I let life happen to me? Or will I happen to life?...

Drive carefully, for the highway is covered in a deep fog that is the present. Your only knowledge of the highway's structure comes from what you've already driven on.

[Why Do I Have a Feeling There Gonna Try To Release 1.4 For Console/Switch Around December 🤔🤔🤔:naughty:

Greetings Terrarians!
At long last, the cooler temperatures of Fall are descending upon us! We hope that everyone is remaining safe out there, and that back-to-school has gone well for those who have done so (be it virtually or in-person). 2020 only has a few more months left - so hang in there! There is so much going on with Terraria right now, let's dive right in!

PC - RE-LOGIC


The 1.4.1 update for Terraria on PC is getting ever closer. We have pretty much wrapped up almost all of the additions, and the current focus for most of the team is on bug fixing and polish before we can get the latest juicy content into your hands. How much longer, you say?

We are feeling pretty confident that we will have Terraria 1.4.1 in your hands sometime during the month of October! We are still nailing down a few pesky bugs where we are not sure how long they will take to fix, so we do not have an EXACT date just yet... but prepare now for the treats of 1.4.1 before Halloween - no tricks here!

SOUNDTRACK UPDATES

TERRARIA SOUNDTRACK: VOLUME 4

Pretty much all set to go, the latest tracks for the Terraria Official Soundtrack will be submitted everywhere once 1.4.1 is released! This means a release on Steam first (adding to the full Steam OST), to be followed by the Volume 4 tracks on digital distribution and music streaming services.

PlayStation 4, XBOX ONE, Nintendo Switch - DR STUDIOS/PIPEWORKS


XBOX & PLAYSTATION

So, last month we had the big announcement that Console/Switch Terraria development would be moving from Pipeworks over to DR Studios. We hope that everyone took some time out to thank Pipeworks for their efforts to bring Terraria 1.3 to Consoles and to reflect on this era. Of course, that leads us directly into the next era of development for Terraria on Consoles and Nintendo Switch. To be fully transparent, the DR Studios team has been mostly focused on getting Terraria Mobile 1.4 over the finish line (more on that in the Mobile section) - however, we wanted to take a minute to show a little something that you might find interesting...




That's right, Console Terrarians, Terraria 1.4 is officially alive and running on Consoles! Now, before we get ahead of ourselves, we have to be clear that this is still a pre-Alpha build, and there is a lot of work left to do in order to deliver Journey's End to all of you. Once Mobile 1.4 is wrapped and hotfixed, the almost full focus of the team will shift towards Console. We will be spending lots of time looking at performance, user interface, gamepad, etc, etc. As we have more to share and show there, we will - but we are pretty excited about what we have planned.


As always, we know everyone wants to know "When?!?" - we are not quite ready to dive into timelines just yet, however, once we get a bit further down the development path, we should have a better understanding of just how much remains in front of us to get done. That said, we surely hope you share our excitement at seeing at least a little taste of what is to come when Terraria: Journey's End reaches Consoles!

NINTENDO SWITCH: Splitscreen Update Fixes


As Switch Terrarians will have noticed, the long-awaited Splitscreen update for Terraria on Nintendo Switch released over the last few weeks. As with any release, crazy bugs have a chance to rear their pesky heads - in this case, with some rather "revealing" results :eek:. In regards to this release, we have gathered a ton of feedback and information from the community around any new bugs (including the whole "naked" characters thing, which was related to a dye bug), and Pipeworks will be looking into a final fix patch for Switch before they transition away from Terraria. Definitely want to have things in a good place before that - so stay tuned for more information here!

MOBILE - DR STUDIOS

Happy Fall Everyone!

We have admittedly been a bit quiet on the spoiler front this month, as it has been all hands on deck with bug fixing, polish, and iteration on a lot of the new features. For example, this week the team has been spending some focused time iterating around button mapping and UI for our gamepad players. This is really beneficial work as it will pay dividends for both our Mobile and our Console/Switch friends down the road.

So, where are we at this point? Pretty excited, that is where we are right now. Why is that? Two reasons really...


First off, we get to show off our favorite new boss - the Empress of Light! (with a special guest appearance by a certain endgame sword that begins with a Z)




View attachment 292956
What's that? You missed it? We caught sight of this mysterious "Z" at the beach last weekend as well...


Remember that these are still development builds, so some things - especially UI pieces - are subject to change and you may always see a bug or three.


So, what is the second thing that has us excited? We are amped up because it is almost October - and October is one of our favorite months. Who doesn't love the fall leaves, cool temperatures, Halloween... and the release of Terraria: Journey's End on Mobile?

:hoppinjack:That's right - our current plan is to launch Terraria: Journey's End on Mobile in October!:hoppinjack:


We aren't QUITE certain exactly what day yet - but the team is feeling confident enough in the work thus far and the work ahead that we are pushing towards an October release. If anything changes - either we arrive at an exact date or something goes horribly wrong and we have to push it out (surely not!) - we will let you know immediately. So get excited, Mobile Terrarians, for something awesome is coming your way very soon! :cool:


We are looking forward to sharing the latest and greatest as development plows ahead - for Mobile and for Consoles - stay tuned!

Greetings Terrarians!

Here's the latest and greatest happenings on the Community side of things. Thanks as always for being the most engaged and awesome gaming Community ever!


TERRARIA MERCHANDISE UPDATES


Lots of new stuff on the Terraria merch front - either already out or coming soon! For this SOTG, we are going to take a moment to feature the latest and greatest from Sanshee. Watch this space for new Terraria merchandise offerings from both Sanshee as well as some new partners that we have not yet revealed! :cool:

Our fantastic partners over at Sanshee have just released the second pin in the Biome Pin Series - this one based on the Desert Biome. Pick one up... or grab both if you missed the Forest Biome Pin earlier this year. Of course, Sanshee has plenty of other epic Terraria items in stock, so if you haven't checked these out yet, make sure you do so. Plenty more is planned in this space - both pins and more, so make sure that you bookmark that Sanshee Terraria page today!

BUILDER SHOWCASE

The Terraria Community is chock full of creative individuals - and this month, we wanted to highlight a handful of epic creators. Of course the Creation Compendium shows off a lot of amazing builds and other creative Terrarian expressions each month (if you haven't checked the CC out before, you really are missing out > CREATION COMPENDIUM ), but we wanted to take a few moments to show off some epic creations that were not posted within the Compendium. We wouldn't want everyone else to miss out on this awesomeness, after all!

If you have something really cool that you want to share with Terrarians everywhere, be sure to submit it to the Creation Compendium or tag us here or on Social Media so that we don't miss it!
