The mod framework itself won't be updated at launch so modders really don't have much of a chance as far as head starts go.

right, gotcha, i missed that somewhere. i guess that's probably what the other guy meant by tmodloader coming 'eventually', sorry for being lovely about it

It's basically cheat sheet but you've got to unlock the items.

Hi.
It’s a lot more than cheat sheet. (Unless I don’t remember all the things cheat sheet does.) It’s also builder/peaceful mode, plus weather control, spawn rates, invincibility, enhanced placement rates for building cool stuff.

Looks incredible!

Cheat sheet actually does a lot that's still unique, like manual spawning of enemies and npcs, the ability to just kill everything on screen instantly, give yourself extra accessory slots, vacuum every item onscreen, make the entire screen visible regardless of light, and give you quick teleports to spawn, the dungeon, the temple, and hell as well as a random teleport. its got enough unique its probably still worth having anyways but journey also has its own unique features so having both at once is actually not pointless, though the teleport's are probably mostly pointless now with npc happiness..

Also looking at that I absolutely am going to probably play journey mode at some point later because it seems hand made both for cool creative building and obsessive collectors, which I both enjoy.

In Journey mode can I, as a multiplayer-host, mess with my friends by changing the difficulty slider at certain moments to give them a challenge? Is it possible for just the host to have access to the slider?

Same. The number of times I've used it and gotten rare monster drops from stuff I haven't even killed is pretty great. It's fun looking through your inventory after using it and going "I know I haven't killed the Rune Wizard at all in this world, so where did his robe and hat come from?"

Sometimes I use the vaccuum in our large multiplayer worlds to make sure we're not nearing the item limit. Probably being overly cautious, but I never know who was just blast mining through poo poo with a full inventory and leaving piles of dirt on the ground (besides me).

So where can I find a list that just breaks down everything being added that we know about so far? I feel like I've seen/heard bits and pieces but yeah.

Edit: naturally I found one right after I posted.

Journey mode looks cool, but it would seem I will once again need a mod to make the expert and now master mode drops occur in normal. I don't like the idea that I'm missing cool content because I'm bad at the game. Hell, if anything I need the extra content BECAUSE I'm bad at the game.

I dunno about list but you can scroll through the news posts on the main website for everything important thats getting changes. I think actual new items are being kept as suprises aside from the few we know of.

Last time I played this game was 2015. I had a nice time playing through most of it with my little sister and we both shared a lot of laughs and good times.

I asked her if she wanted to do the same thing again in 2020 and she said yes :unsmith:

Was planning on jumping back into this with some friends for Journey's End and figured we'd actually throw in some mods for once. Based on past updates, anyone have a rough idea of how long it takes for something like Thorium to update for a new patch? Might pass if it's several months or whatever.

Now I don't have any actual info, but this is such a huge overhaul that I wouldn't expect any massive mods to be available for awhile.

I got a hosted server sitting idle for a while now, just haven’t shut it off, but now I probably won’t, I offer the server as tribute to the thread.

When it finally releases, I would definitely be interested in a (softcore / serverside (maybe?) characters) Master mode large world server. Pretty much the only thing I'm going to be playing single player, at least, until I beat Moon Lord and completely terraform a large world in the process.

If multiplayer, the only thing I'm concerned about is accessory availability. I wonder if it would be worth it to do it in Journey mode instead, assuming the players could agree about restrictions / bans on toggling off Master mode/etc.

It's probably safe to assume it's gonna be months until even the modloader framework is updated. At that point, mods can start working on patches. They'll also have to account for any balance changes in new items, mechanics, NPCs, enemies, etc. So yeah, I imagine it'll be a long time before any mods come out, at least any major ones.

I thought it was coming out with modloader ready to go as an integrated part of the game?

TModloader (in its current, not-updated-for-1.4 form) is being shipped with it. It's not being integrated directly into the game, or being worked on by the Terraria devs.

Had an interesting thing happen today. I'm playing with the DBZ mod among others, and while fighting the Queen Bee I apparently fired a Ki Beam into another hive and broke another larva, summoning a second bee. I didn't even know you could do that.

I regularly have early broken larva while playing with a few mods. I'll be cruising around in copper armor and 180 health in the desert and all of the sudden I'm being divebombed by that drat Beetch.

1.4 is going to be on the nine-year anniversary of the game's (non-leaked) release. From there only being three bosses to a ton of events and bosses. Music's still as good as ever.

I bought this for $9.99 USD back on 16/5/11 and feel like I've got decent value for money out of my 300+ hours.

Getting pretty hype to throw another 50 or so at trying to beat Master mode.
As Saxophone said - it would be neat if you could combine the Expert/Master special drops with a Journey Mode game to experience all the new stuff at once, don't know if I'll have the patience to wait for any mods that might do that though and feel like I'll just want to get set into it.
