Did anyone rebuy Terraria on XBONE (who had it on 360?)

[Frylock]

I played it a fair amount on my 360 and loved it.

Has anyone played it on 360 then re-bought it on xbone?

If you did, your thoughts?

I was thinking about downloading it tonight on my xbone.

No clue lol.

This is wishful (to the point of fantastical) thinking on my part, but I wish that when you purchased a game, it meant that you purchased the license for all systems.

I have it on my 360. Didn't know they released and xbone version.

I've got in on the one, but never tried it on the 360. Pretty damn fun game, though. Shit is addictive.

Only gripe would be that split screen sucks because everything is so damn small. Makes it really hard to see what you're doing. Even on a 65 inch.

I did indeed rebuy it. It is a super fun game though starting out is a steep curve.

I also ran into this last night playing on my tv and it's only 55inch.


I was googlin and SUPPOSEDLY if you pause, LT and RT buttons will allow you to zoom in/out. Not 100% sure but I will be testing next time I play.

*eidt* ^^^ missed this post. Also, not sure about the Xbox side, but on PSN I had access to cloud saves and was able to import my character/worlds over to PS4.

I played the crap out of it on the Vita and was excited for it to come to X1/PS4 since they said it would have all of the content. What that really meant is it would have all the content that previous versions had right off the bat, not be caught up to the PC.

I pretty much cleared everything boss wise on the Vita and got all the weapons/armor I wanted. I did buy it on PS4 when it went on sale it pretty much exactly the same, just a lot bigger. If you've accomplished everything you wanted on the 360 there really isn't much need for it on the X1 unless they get another content update and add the new bosses/items.

Unfortunately for us I don't think you can port over saves with the xbox version, which is retarded but I can deal with it, I don't mind starting over but getting some decent gear at the beginning is super annoying.

I don't go back to my 360 that much so rebuying it makes it easier to play. I never beat the game either. It's something I can pick up and play anytime imo.

Starting from scratch would be a lot faster too since you know what you're looking for and proper boss strategy. The only thing I would really dread doing again is farming the Picksaw from the Golem, but even then I got the boss fight down pretty quick and would just reload a save after I burned through all my boss summoning items if I didn't get it.

Thinking about it know I kind of wouldn't mind starting over again, but there are just to many games coming out right now to devote time to it.

See I don't think I even got that far in my original 360 play through

I was kind of bored of my games that's why I rebought this. I just beat Alien Isolation. On deck I still need to finish Shadow of Mordor and Farcry 4. I throw in FIFA in between. Technically I never beat Dead Rising 3 but I haven't played that in a while. I'll also play minecraft every once and a while but I don't have tons of xbone games.

How far did you get?

There was a big learning gap at the beginning to figure out what the hell you were supposed to do.

Then another jump in difficulty when you started unlocking the bosses. Getting properly geared up and proper arena set ups for each boss.

Then another jump in difficulty starting hard mode, getting geared up, summoning bosses along with proper arena set up.

By the time you were able to take out Skeletron Prime in hardmode, the final boss was kind of a breeze. The only real thing to do after that for the console version was the Halloween event to farm the pumpkin head boss and farm his weapons.

Not very far at all now that I think about it. Maybe I spent too much time mucking about and not enough time progressing. I know I fought the Eye of Cthulhu and the Eater of Worlds several times each. Towards when I stopped playing I found the dungeon and I fought Skeletron a few times but had not beat him.

Yeah, Skeletron was a pain in the ass until I built a proper arena, then he was a cake walk.

Just build one long ass bridge above the castle, high enough to not hit any high terrain. Throw in some campfire/heart lanters for some added health regen. Then get your best ranged weapon with highest damage ammo. Summon him and just back peddle down the sky bridge while firing on him. When you get to the end up the bridge turn around and do it in the other direction. Shouldn't take any real damage, and the regen items should be enough to keep you topped off. Just keep some potions on hand in case things go south.

When you beat him you can summon the Wall of Flesh boss, which beating initiates Hard Mode. You can pretty much use the same strategy except you can't turn around when you run out of bridge. It has to be long enough from the get go to last the duration of the fight.

Interesting sometimes it takes me a while to think creating environments as part of strategy instead of just fighting in the environment. Oh well gotta start from the bottom with dat wood armor
