Roll from scratch...It is almost a new game.Hmmm, I can't decide whether I should start from scratch or keep my old character with the hellforged armor?
Either you just don't, or you try in another world. A lot of the new tiers are designed as an either/or system instead of a direct line of progression. When a world spawns in 1.2, it will have either iron OR lead, gold OR platinum, etc. A world will also have corruption or crimson, along with demonite ore or crimtane ore.So... uh... how do you get adamantine now? All of my demon altars are spawning Cobalt - Mythral - Titanium.
Do you need a group or at least one other person for this to be a fun game? Or is it still pretty decent flying solo?Just started playing this with my brother since we were both free all day today. Started at 1pm...it's now 8pm...god dammit lol. This game is so addicting to just explore and find shit. Also building a village to get some NPCs is fun too. Dammit I love this game.
Lol, this reminds me of one of the Metacritic reviews that a gamer gave. He scored it a zero cuz it didn't tell him what to do. Not saying you are a baddie like him. Just made me lol.So, I just bought Terraria based on this thread. I played for about 10 minutes but don't understand the point of it, also I went the wrong way I guess and now I'm stuck in complete darkness underground and can't get out. I don't see any info anywhere in the actual game on keybindings, abilities, so on and so forth. What am I missing here? I need help!
Can also just hold shift and it will either auto your pick axe or place a torch depending on where your mouse is pointed. Also need walls to go behind your house or monsters can spawn inside.Yeah the game pretty much throws you into the deep end right away. Basically what you need to know:
* To cut wood select your axe and L Click the *base* of the tree and hold it down. After like 10-15s it will cut down and get the wood.
* Before the first night cycle you need a shelter. With the wood you got put it into your hotkey bar (press "ESC" to open up your inventory) and select the wood. Just L-Click to place. [Just make a rectangle -- you don't need anything fancy here. Like 20 blocks wide and as tall as you can place.]
* First things first is to make a work bench. Press "ESC" to open up the crafting window (it is in the bottom left) and go to the work bench. Create it and place it. That opens up more crafting options.
Also placing torches is kind of tricky. Basically just select it from your hotkey bar and just left click on a wall/ground. Sometimes the collision on if it will place the torch or not is hot or miss. So just spam it till it places. It took me a really, embarrassingly, long time to figure out how to correctly place those fuckers.
That is the quick-start guide. From there it is basically more of the same. You mine minerals/ores to unlock new crafting stations and items to craft. Rinse and repeat.
