    Terraria is in fact not dead. It's very much alive. It still has a strong community. Though development may of stopped for now since the coder, Redigit's wife has just had a baby. But as show in this thread. He has something big planned. NOt something to get hopes up about but maybe this could be Terraria's development continuing.

    Yeah, no, hype train.

    He knew what had to be done, Terraria's multiplayer options as well as server options are shit, the basic things that would be changed (allowing linux servers or non-GUI servers at the absolute least).

    Really hope his changes actually allow more development in the future, because you know... the whole like thing.

    I admit the default server options are lacking but there are some great server soft wares out there to stop that problem. I would rather Red just focused on new content and released the source. Since that would probably result in other people making more forum software anyway.

    Agreed, I suppose that's my main problem, but it seems he won't really go that way for reasons, not that I know exactly what they are given the obfuscashit excuse he gives but whatever. I really hope whatever he has a surprise is good, I actually wouldn't mind jumping on with friends again for a few days if it was new content.

    I would agree with the server UI being a bit crap (in other words, its non-existent, just enter the IP and off you go.) Though about the linux servers, one of my friends played terraria a ton on his Linux machine, and managed to find a way to play it online. I'll ask him how he did it, but the option to play and create Linux servers should've been there from the start. Shame they've stopped updating though, logged a good 300 hours into it, but who knows, maybe they'll come back to it.....eventually :huh?:

    I don't really play the actual game any more. But am frequent at the forums. They have a pretty good community in there if you find the right circles. (I'm not advertising for them)

    Also if you looking for something Terraria like. One of the devs Tiy making a new game called Starbound. It's still in development but look promising.

    Heres to hoping Starbound picks up where Terraria left off: http://playstarbound.com/ .

    I have an overwhelming feeling it will fall on its face though.

    Hm, so it wont fail when half of the people that play it are griefing-and-dick-building 5 year olds?
    (no offense to anybody on the forums, you guys are awesome, but the people that dont visit the forums... ye, you know the deal)
