We've all seen 'The Dark Knight' right.

"If your good at something never do it for free!" #Heath Ledger always will be the real Joker

I grew up in a generation where many just wanted to be testers for next to no pay. Now everyone's a tester for nothing. Kudos to those who will sacrifice there play time to come up with the hard data but I'll only go out of my way to point out what I notice and it turns out I was right.

Lol...if everyone followed that type of thinking no problems would ever be solved.

It's also the recipe for mediocrity...

I bet Heath worked hard to get where he got in his career...so not sure that's an appropriate example...😅

I have got the feeling that the hitbox of plants got worse. Trying to harvest from my farm plots in b169 ended in me taking out lots of seeds accidentally. Right now with a new savegame in b173 it is still the same with chrysanthemum flowers. Instead of the flower I keep hitting grass way more often than with A18. Not sure when exactly that got worse but it definitely was better with A18.

Someone else experienced that as well?

This has been a major headache recently, so yes.

 
Blunderbuss ---- Day 6 and now these are turning up in loot A LOT... in most to everything also more than one per loot box (had three in a safe).

Well you are entitled to your opinion, as am I. If you want to work for free thats your business. My two cents are free but thats where I draw the line.

Very much this!

It's seriously a fight to actually harvest crops for some reason. I beat the crap out of my planters, or just punch the air over and over. Almost always have to back through and replant all the seeds I punched up too

Can't we just get an "E to interact" prompt instead

I'm pretty sure TFP said they might want to get rid of all "press E to interact" interactions in the game (for harvesting resources) for consistency's sake, but we'll have to see. But no, press "E" to pick up is never coming back.

*runs out of stamina using the pick I already  had in my hand to harvest my corn*

*Opens inventory just to unequip my pick so I have an empty hand slot and can punch my plants more efficiently*

*Opens inventory to re-equips my pick when done*

*repeats every couple of days*

Yeah can we just get E to pick up =_=

Don't fix what isn't broken, an interact key to harvest your crops is ridiculously simple

True, but then new players will be wondering, possibly confused, why they must punch grass but not crops. Consistency. ;)

 
Literally nobody would have a hard time figuring out that "E to harvest" on plants means press E to harvest lol. I have never, not one time, seen that mentioned as an issue on Ark or any other survival game that all do it *exactly* that way.

Mom come pick me up, I had to press E to pick up a small stone and I'm scared!!

so what is the point of still having steel tools in the game? with mods being added and stamina being an issue for some players it seems as of late that steel tools are just skipped. I go from iron tools right into auger and have skipped steel tools for awhile now just curious if this is something other players do and if TFP have considered just getting rid of the steel tools altogether?

Oh you'd be surprised. I recently saw a negative review for Terraria on Steam - a flipping wall of text - over someone complaining they couldn't figure out how to place a door, calling the developers lazy and all that for not including a guide on how to place a door. Some people like that exist. 😛

YES. I've plucked many a seed because of this. I was hoping this last patch would have gotten that one. Maybe stable...
