Re: Terraria 1.1 Update

[Steven :D]

Seeing as though the update requires you to kill a new boss (The wall of flesh), to be able to shatter Demon Altars in the world, I propose an event, where everybody online will be able to fight the wall of flesh and unleash a new light on Caphori. I'll have to write something out and patch it up so it matches with our current lore, but the new additions would be interesting to have. Here are a list of Benefits

   
• Cobalt, Mythril, Adamantium Ores
• New tiers of armour
• New weapons
• New bosses
• New Biome (The Hallow)

And for the forums

   
• Removal of some authorization only things (Hellfire, Shadowscale, Necro)
• Addition of some authorization only things (Cobalt, Mythril, Adamantium)

(Possibly more later)

Of course, this makes the original game 10x harder, I believe we can fix the amount of spawning of NPC's within Caphori by using TShock to limit the amount (When and if it is made for 1.1). What do you guys think?

[mwang]

no because if you do that corruption will never stop spreading so its either getting killed by unicorns and pixies in the hallow or getting molested by corrupter which btw have 400 health T-T

[Syndraell]

As long as it doesn't touch my Isle, i'm fine with it.

Not a big fan of the hallowed ground.

[Inlaa]

I'm new to the server, so take what I say with a grain of salt, but I think that it might be better to simply let that happen on a separate server, much like I read the Wilderness operates.

Having nastier, spreading corruption and the Hallow on the same world people have to create entirely new characters to RP on seems rather dangerous to me, unwise.  It's hard to RP when you're being smacked around by big, nasty beasties, and explaining why they're so close to the castle / kingdom could be tricky.

On the other hand, simply making the content inaccessible via RP on this server doesn't seem wise, either.  People will want to access it.  Therefore, perhaps unlocking it in the Wilderness (or a separate server like the Wilderness) would be a better option.

If possible, it may even be best to try and modify the RP server so that the Wall of Flesh does not spawn under any circumstances, that way someone can't break rules (if they're made) restricting its defeat and cause the problems mentioned in the second paragraph of my post.

Again, I'm new here, so I don't understand how things operate fully yet.  My words ain't gospel.

We could just make the wild a way of getting these newer items.

Personally I think it would be kool to have the things on the server we rp on regularly. Though I do realize that wouldn't be particularly good for rp. If somehow the issue was fixed using some manner of server editing it would be kool to have the new stuff though it might still just be safer to go the wilderness route.


Either way as long as there is access to the new stuff on some server that connects to caphori I'm good. Rp ideas for it could simply be while scouting out the near by seas you find a new land or something of that sort.

[Syndraell]

Trust me, i've played on a private server with the new update.

YOU WILL DIE.

A LOT.

Other than that, it's kinda nice. Things you might wanna remember is not letting the corruptors follow you, as they spit corruption, and it will corrupt just about everything. I'd also suggest being lax on the cobalt and mithril authorizations, hard on the adamantite, and heavy on the hallowed set. (seriously, i know everyone and their friend will want an Excalibur.)

Also seeing that drills may be one of the only ways to mine certain ores now, we might have to go more fantasy. I.E. dwarven Tech.

Boss battles are hard as fuck. do not tackle them alone.

wings+Rocketboots=Spaaaace... Beware of Wyverns.

Try to keep an area for the new people. No hallow/corruption. it'll help, a lot.

Don't touch every chest you come across. Why? Mimics. 500hp, no knockback. Lava will kill them faster than any weapon you currently have.

And if you want people to live in a settlement, there must be either hallow or normal ground. NPC haet corruption. (yes, i spelled hate wrong on purpose for added affect. so sue me.) Would highly suggest everyone having a few npcs. I'd buy a guide and a merchant. lol.

Other than that, have fun dying.

[Dungeon_Lord]

I went playing for hours on end and got all the new stuff. I don't die much though The new bosses (Twins, Mechanical Worm, Skeleton Prime) will rape your ass. Really really hard. You'll cry for days. I got all Hallow teched and it took me more then 6 trys to kill them by myself. Those things are fucking outrageous. Also wings are better then boots and boots + wings = Boots no activate.

[darkshinyprincess]

If you have a map editor, maybe you can use it to resurrect skeletron (TEdit can do it)

[Dungeon_Lord]

I think we should go rape the new boss (Wall Of Flesh) then simply use a editor to remove the hardcore feature on the map.

As soon as I get back from vacation... Bam! here comes an update that I so unthinkingly agreed too. sigh.

[Steven :D]

Still awaiting TShock 1.1.

[Redbark]

Still awaiting TShock 1.1.

The beta is out.

Still awaiting TShock 1.1.

The beta is out.

Known issues with 1.1:
Statues and mannequins don't work properly
Explosives added in 1.1 aren't stopped
Random crashing that we can't reproduce

Possibly. Or we can wait a while longer.

In my opinion we should back up the world routinely to make sure it is preserved, run the t shock beta and hope for the best because I think people (including myself) are getting a bit restless and just want to play on the server again.

[Dungeon_Lord]

Have patience. I'd much rather the issue be solved correctly and slow then be done dangerously and fast. I have a life outside the game so I can wait as long as needed.

Hahahah oh man

Suddenly I like this guy.

[Dungeon_Lord]

Sometimes I wonder why people talk about this game as if its there life. I mean I have plenty of friends like that and their good people, but seriously. Get out now and then. If the server is down go do something. If you can't then play something else. Not super hard. Yet people must act as if it is.
