Huge Terraria 1.2 update coming to PS3/PSV/360 4/17

can you disable rear touch on vita yet?

hmmm don't think 1.2 has hit the ios version yet .

With the update today you can.

And the mobile version isn't even close to 1.2. As far as we know, it won't even get the hardmode content. Todays update is only for Playstation and XBOX.

From what I understand the iOS version is wayyyyy behind the other versions, even prior to the 1.2 patch being released. Which is sad, because my wife and son love playing Terraria on iOS and aren't really interested in the console versions. I am considering buying both of them a new Vita so they can play 1.2 goodness.

Do it, it's wonderful, and technically the best version on console, which means if Console ever gets all the PC content, the vita version will technically be the best version.

And yeah, I don't think the IOS version even has all the 1.0content, but it has gotten a few exclusive events.
 
Can't wait for this update.

Does anyone know if Terraria has been announced for PS4? I tried searching around but couldnt find any new stories on it.

From my understanding, not yet. One of the Terraria Online forum mods stated (on Feb. 23, 2014) "there is no way 505 could confirm or deny this at this point..." in response to someone asking that, there.

did the vita one have framerate problems or was that some other indie game of recent im thinking of?

Terraria has framerate problems in bigger building areas and some other areas when playing local multiplayer. I put about 30-some hours in the Vita version and I can definitely say there are framerate issues in my main town and in a few other surface locations.
 
Okay, this sucks. Just updated my Vita, and now I get a big fat "Load failed!" when I want to open my old world. Damn it!

I can still use my character in a new world, but I'm missing a whole lotta stuff right now. :-(
 
Good time to ask I suppose. Has anyone EVER gotten the ps3 version online. I've been trying to play in another person'a world since I got the game and it never finds anyone. I've never had anyone else in my world either.

Same here on vita. I think you may have to be on the other persons friend list.

I just loaded up my main world and the terrain is all screwed up. Everything to the right of my spawn pain that WAS horizontal is NOW layer out at an include. Hell goes from the bottom all the way to the sky.
It's kind of awesome
 
Odd. My old world loaded up just fine on the Vita. I have no idea if I'm missing things or not, though.
I meant I'm missing all the stuff I can't access in my world I can't load. Like the thousands of materials and my shit-load of money.

Now I'm even more upset my world won't load, haha! Can you take a screenshot?
 
I feared the patch would be a detriment to peoples saves. And I had a good feeling the patch would drop a couple weeks after I purchased it so I didnt take it as serious with perfect placment of items and such so I wouldnt be butthurt about wiping. Perfect timing. My new 12 world will be the real deal
 
Yep, the patch completely messed up my world in the Vita version. I could still load it, but everything's completely out of place and my character is trapped in some hole.
Congratulations on that extensive bug testing.
 
Do you think the patch will mess up my world where I've been slowly digging out everything?
Cause I'd hate to lose that one.

And the one where I have a chest filled with the maximum number of each building material I could find. That would suck to lose as well.

Edit: I'll be backing up my saves beforehand just in case.
 
Vita version won't load my old world.
I'm going to check the PS3 version now.

edit:

PS3 version loaded with no issues.
 
Just updated and loaded my saved world and was pleasantly surprised to find everything intact. Though, I am now experiencing framerate drops in my main base area.
 
Everything loaded up fine for me also. Also notice stuttering. Playing pre-patch earlier today and everything was smooth. Now when I walk it looks like the framerate took a noticeable hit.

Yeah, noticed that too. Pre-patch I never had any dips in my large world. Now I created a small one and at one point it even hung for a few seconds. Scary stuff!

So far, not so good

My world won't load. Massively pissed off.

On the Terraria forum someone said the bug was affecting worlds with bonfires in them. No confirmation yet but I've emailed support and eagerly awaiting a helpful reply.

Edit: Vita version btw.
 
Edit: Advice for PS+ users; back up your save before downloading the patch just in case.

Sadly, I did back up my world before updating. It does not help, world is still broken.

The bonfire thing is probably right. I did have a bonfire in my base at exactly the point of the world tear. This should totally be a new event

Then try deleting the game, downloading your old save and playing without the patch.
 
I'm going to be devastated if they can't fix this. Spent so much time on that world and had already lost one save a few months ago because I stupidly didn't back it up. This new update better be worth it if I have to start over.

Someone tell me it's worth it!!

Straight from Terraria facebook page:

The starting female clothes have been modified
Chest sizes have been doubled
 
Geuss I'll try some of this out. I've spent lots of time in the game but I'm stuck. I can't beat hard bosses even with me weapons and armos pretty much maxed out.

I did take a very long time to creat an apartment tower made of glass with waterfalls running down the sides so I'm willing to work on that some more.

The hardmode bosses are designed to be taken out by a group or by clever preparation. I don't think I could beat skeletron prime on my own without a premade arena.

This update will actually take away the easiest way to kill them.
cross necklace+hellbrick= invincible
 
LOL what the hell

My wolrd is messed up and there is a mountain freshly spawned into half of my giant tower.
Everything is screwed and lots of my chests were eaten.
 
Holy shit, the 1.2 patch has corrupted my missus' world that she'd put an incredible amount of time into. What a pisser.

My save got corrupted a while back on the Vita, I was that pissed I vowed not to touch the game till this patch was released....

Vita by any chance?
 
Hm, sounds like I was extremely lucky, in that my save is just fine post-1.2. My old world and character loaded fine. I'm gonna be playing with a brand new character and world, though. Basically gonna pretend it's Terraria 2.
 
One of my worlds got corrupted (the only one I cared about, naturally). I'll play around with restoring my save from the cloud tonight, or just start over if I have to.

I feel bad for the dev team. How embarrassing!
 
You can't, the store version is pre-patched. The missus already tried it.

PS3 or Vita? If it's Vita, you can cancel the patch download and just let the main game download and install. This worked for me to actually play it. 1.2 crashes for me after the logo screens.
 
Its still $10 Australian dollars on the vita store for the sale price... id bite at $5...especially considering its been on sale many times on Steam for $2.50.

but sounds like an amazing update...
 
I really wish I checked this thread before installing the patch, but why would anyone assume that the patch would ruin their save?

My world is dead now too :(
