[tribal isle]

why werent there any hogs shown in the hog wild update trailer

any particularly horrible ones

[still bluff]

we're not showing the hog that easily

[solar hare]

hes too horriblr

[deft lily]

🐖

[light bane]

@ocean jay @daring wedge release the update pls

[fickle seal]

Don't send that.

Also would prefer if you didn't ping seemingly random users asking about the update? It'd be rude to do that to a dev but a non role user is just like, bothersome for no reason.

Anyways

Hog

[deft lily]

woag

[night cedar]

Absolutely amazing game 10/10 would 100% again

[native thistle]

🐷

[teal bone]

i need this

[hoary merlin]

Yoo I just want to ask the moder here, since Terraria 1.4.5 drop there is something have been changed like idk is it gonna be an issue for the summoner class or not

[desert garnet]

they will need to rebalance summoner dmg on its weapons

cuz vanilla adds new whips

[hoary merlin]

the spider armor is now need to be craft on the anvil in hardmode

[desert garnet]

calamity might change that

cuz it locks mythril behind one mech

[hoary merlin]

this is what I was wondering about

[desert garnet]

calamity already made some items to use normal anvil

so i see no issue with cal doing that to spider armor too

expecially when summoner dont have any other armor before mechs xd

[hoary merlin]

yeah

[polar tide]

I will then, Sagittariod. For you

[teal bone]

YIPPEEEE

goat

[spiral jewel]

Tmodloader isn't 1.4.5 yet so no 1.4.5 changes you've seen apply to calamity as of yet

[valid crypt]

The hog is coming.

[solar hare]

hog fog

[spiral jewel]

Grow up and get a job

[deft lily]

mrbeat givbive emoney!!!!

[spiral jewel]

Yay!!!

[deft lily]

im rich now

thanks mrbeat...!

[spiral jewel]

Mr breast free monez

[high scaffold]

I just read the newsletter

A new calamity update not even half a year later?

[deft lily]

the air is getting horrible around you

[late eagle]

I think we can all agree now that every triangle's shitposts are real

Jade palace is next guys

I have faith

[earnest jewel]

SSO wait time was an exception and should not have been counted.

[proud plover]

Also it apparently will be a smaller content update

[deft lily]

which is a good thing

instead of dropping a content slop update and then going radio silent for 2-3 years

[plush carbon]

code for bountiful harvest

[deft lily]

do i even wanna ask what this message entails

-# 😨

[plush carbon]

this is bountiful harvest

thats all

[deft lily]

oh

👍

[plush carbon]

radio silent isn't really applicable

but yknow

[deft lily]

i just like to pretend bountiful harvest never happened

the good timeline

[plush carbon]

[still bluff]

real

[deft lily]

master death was bad
the trailer was bad

the scal rework was okay

was all over the place

[still bluff]

the other stuff in it was fine it was a content dump patch like many others
unfortunately the bosses got horsed 💔

[deft lily]

the best thing that came in that update was uhhh

that little orange creature

idk the name of it

[still bluff]

[deft lily]

yes

the one and only

[proud plover]

For me it feels like the amthyst on the back is wobbling with the crawlers movement like jelly. I think it could look more like a solid gem if the animation of it was only going up and down (and not also to the right, flattening at the top)

[deft lily]

can't wait for the all of the vanilla bosses to be Big E'd

🙏

[earnest jewel]

What would Eye of Cthulhu do?

[deft lily]

uhhh

[plush carbon]

fire E's

[deft lily]

yeah

that

[earnest jewel]

And not Is?

[plush carbon]

E

[twin juniper]

Praying for mech trios rework update

[deft lily]

the E jokes pre 2020 were 67 if it wasn't brainrot

[high scaffold]

wait a minute, 2.2?

like the peak geometry dash update 2.2

[late eagle]

TWENTY TWWOOOOOOOO

[high scaffold]

cant wait 7 years for the update

[deft lily]

?

this feels reductive

[high scaffold]

I wonder, megalodon rework in 2.2

[plush carbon]

its not that deep its just a bad joke

[deft lily]

a bad joke that gets overused tbh

[plush carbon]

thats what makes it bad

[deft lily]

yeah

to the point where its just kind of unecessary slander

[high scaffold]

what joke?

[deft lily]

me omw to open a random calamity video and see the top comment be "cant wait for yharim in the year 48948284" joke

[deft lily]

ppl joking abt how long cal updates take

[azure oak]

hogstorm is real

[deft lily]

im not very fond of them personally bc a lot of the time its used to slander and shit talk

[high scaffold]

that wasnt even a calamity related joke but rather geometry dash

[deft lily]

oh

my mistake then

[tribal isle]

This is not even targeted at cal
The 2.2 update is infamous in the gd community because of how long it took to push out

[high scaffold]

7 years

[deft lily]

i see

yeah i avoid the gd community like the plague cuz uhh

ive heard some stories

😨

also cuz idrc for gd that much

[plush carbon]

my bad for also missing that

i dont care for gd either but i know about 2.2's infamy

[azure oak]

seems it will be a very silly update, i like

[solemn crest]

Hogstorm tomorrow

[pulsar crow]

when brainstorm

[deft lily]

2 months ago

[young notch]

Brainstorm at 23:00-UTC

[earnest jewel]

I need that graphic designer buried alive.

[hushed crown]

This would go crazy on a lightning t shirt

[craggy wagon]

hog rising

[deft lily]

what a fascinating bedtime story

[spark hearth]

[high scaffold]

is this supposed to be funny or something?

[polar tide]

do you not like it

[high scaffold]

no

[spark hearth]

I'm excited to see what the team managed to sneak into this new update, considering how fast it's coming

[high scaffold]

megalodon rework and hallow and chlorophyte helmet armor set pieces for rogue

[polar tide]

sorry nesegx won't happen again

[pulsar cobalt]

its like some sort of horrible hog...

[tribal isle]

Is this based on calamity mod

[solemn crest]

I think

🤔

Is this a commentary on the state of agriculture?

[deft lily]

[solemn crest]

Bc the pig escaped the farm

[polar tide]

its a commentary on men crashing into huge pigs and dying

[deft lily]

anyways gondal

[solemn crest]

It’s a !

[deft lily]

!

[twin bloom]

Thingy

[solemn crest]

What did the piggy say to the hog?

Oink oink I’m a pig

🐖

[twin bloom]

Is the hog horrible

[tribal isle]

It’s a commentary on animal abuse in farms because that pig was definitely overweight

[solemn crest]

yes

[solemn crest]

If the pig was overweight how did it slide out through the fences

[tribal isle]

jumped

[solemn crest]

Mmmm

[twin bloom]

It broke thru all of them with its sheer weight

[solemn crest]

Maybe they should build the fences higher

I think the pig could be a metaphor

It’s a stand-in for something

Doubt, maybe?

Uncertainty?

[proud relic]

Uhhh guys is profaned guardian bug rn or what

Nvm

I think its because of the pillars

Lol

[twin juniper]

They made It sounds like the car just exploded on contact with the pig and the pig just tanked it

[solemn crest]

💥

🐖 🚙
🐖 🚙
💥
🐖 🔥

[urban cloak]

the pig was simply that strong

[mystic eagle]

This should be taught in schools

[proud relic]

Is profane guardian bug?

In infernum?

[earnest jewel]

Wrong channel.

[hushed hazel]

[frail owl]

[rare tinsel]

[grave rock]

No but like fr

[solemn crest]

Hogbrain horriblestorm clammy

[grave rock]

The newsletter doesnt load

Is this like a late april fools

[solemn crest]

Piggy resprite basically started to spiral afaik and now we have horrible hog and divine swine

[vivid hemlock]

horrible hog was made before the piggy resprite

[solemn crest]

Oh was it?

[vivid hemlock]

i think its an issue on your end since most people ive heard from had no problems with it

[grave rock]

Sad!

[misty wren]

werent they made at the same time

[vivid hemlock]

piggy was made like a day later or smth

[grave rock]

What the newsletter say

[solemn crest]

Regardless, horrible hog was sprited and the cal discord hivemind just latched onto it

[arctic cliff]

remember

[twin juniper]

Ssoon after this update….

[misty wren]

ive seen someone completely outside of cal use horrible hog in real life and so much that their entire family calls their dog that now

[arctic cliff]

for the first time i am actually horrified by the amidias face

[mystic eagle]

Where's Alaska and Hawaii 😭

[solemn crest]

Succumbed to swine

[dusk bronze]

subsumed

[mystic eagle]

Vortex

[grave rock]

Im going to scream

[solemn crest]

[amber egret]

outside of final frame i like how he looks like an aztec mural

[dusk bronze]

you could say they returned to swine

[grave rock]

Please I need to know Is there anything to it beyond hog

[solemn crest]

Someone cover slime god with oinks

[solemn crest]

Nah that’s about it

Cal hive mind being cal hive mind

[grave rock]

Nothing ever happens

[late eagle]

It was originally a shitpost of a dev, then things just happened and this is the new update now

[solemn crest]

Hog

[late eagle]

What a Calamity!

[arctic cliff]

we must spread word of the hogs

the world must go hog wild

[late eagle]

There is, but it's a small update so it won't have a lot of things

[twin juniper]

Ion even know the context behind the og image I was just trying to make him look surprised

[late eagle]

The next big update is in the works, but we don't know what it is

[lapis oak]

lootbox lootbox lootbox

[tropic jolt]

mroney

[arctic cliff]

will you feel a sense of pride and accomplishment

[late eagle]

let's go gamblinnggg

[arctic cliff]

or only a sense of shame and indignity

[twin juniper]

Is that Reddit

[rare tinsel]

i swiped too fast and thought this was a gun

[grave rock]

No matter how bad of a day I have I wont look at the cal reddit

[late eagle]

Okay let me install reddit real quick just to see how the red nation is dealing with the hog

This will be funny

[rare tinsel]

Bully them

[grave rock]

Im guessing its just

'nothing ever happens'

[twin juniper]

Wher Yharim

[solemn crest]

[hasty tangle]

under there

[grave rock]

Would you look at the time

[mystic eagle]

Under what

[twin juniper]

Underwho

[dusk bronze]

sand under table

[twin juniper]

That’s yharrik his secret uncle

[thorn pier]

whats yharim

is it just yharon misspelled

[agile latch]

Why he has a pig in his chest

[thorn pier]

is that yharon but in human form

[solemn crest]

No, different people

[thorn pier]

then he forget how to write his name and become yharim

[solemn crest]

Yharim is calamity’s antagonist

*main antagonist

[thorn pier]

and then he has a brother called yharub

[agile latch]

Reverse

Hog came first because i had a dream cal added green piggies

Called bad piggies

[dusk bronze]

divine Intervention

[solemn crest]

Insane lore

[dusk bronze]

the universe knew calamity must be blessed with swine

[solemn crest]

Return to swine

[dull heart]

This means chaos stone and horrible hog are related

[solemn crest]

Makes sense

[twin juniper]

the og pic has something there and the hog was right there

[dull heart]

Chaos Stone was also born from a dream

[urban cloak]

yea

[dull heart]

This also means Realm Ravager is the anti-hog

[urban cloak]

the update was originally meant to be for april fools but progress wasn't movin fast enough to hit it in time

[solemn crest]

Was realm ravager born in a nightmare?

[urban cloak]

the newsletter is compensation essentially

[agile latch]

The chainsaw man

[dusk bronze]

realm ravager itself is the nightmare

[trail brook]

Yo, I haven't updated the game since brainstorm, i just came back only to see flying pigs will be added what in the world is that

[dull heart]

I had a dream where I was trying to remove realm ravager and couldn't find the files for it in the code

[rare tinsel]

horrible hog

[trail brook]

but it looks cool tho

[rare tinsel]

please don’t talk about the horrible hogs, it’s against server rules and punishable by eternal damnation

[trail brook]

lol why horrible

[mellow spade]

the hogs ate them

[dusty tinsel]

Me when the hog is horrible

[blazing field]

nooo thats the divine swine

horrible hog is green and malicious ...

divine swine is holy and benevolent

[wise laurel]

you look like dark boshy but instead of the question mark you have eyes

[blazing field]

what the scallop

[tropic jolt]

dark boshy 😨

[mystic eagle]

I hate this 😭

[tropic jolt]

thank you sso

[agile latch]

Calamity will only have a new update when pigs can fly

[dusk bronze]

this is true

[agile latch]

Its kinda funny and slightly annoying

Seeing people on red nation saying the update will come in a year

[cinder mural]

Hog: "Bet."

[blazing field]

they do not know

i cnt even look at reddit anymore because of the age verif thing

im too lazy to do it for reddit ouf ot all things

im free

[dusk bronze]

it's deeply saddening that r/whennews is legitimately the best news source on the internet right now

[solemn crest]

Reddit stinky

Like old milk

[amber egret]

correction

reddit is specific types of cheese

[solemn crest]

What is cheese but not old milk

[amber egret]

correct

[solemn crest]

[agile latch]

I mean there is a soon on the post

But i guess they dont read

Not even a soon ™

[agile latch]

Now thinking.. since they are three pigs

[vivid hemlock]

[agile latch]

Who would live in the straw house, wood house and brick house

[vivid hemlock]

divine swine gets the brick house

[misty wren]

straw house would be horrible hog, wood house would be piggy, divine swine is brick

[cinder mural]

that mod does not work when the devil of reading is around

[tropic jolt]

the 4th little piggy made their house out of wolf skulls, it wasnt very strong but it sent a message

[fierce hearth]

What is this, reddit

[tropic jolt]

yes

[fierce hearth]

I'm so sorry, carry on

[tropic jolt]

reddit gold for you my friend

[fierce hearth]

Soon™ lost meaning a long time ago

What is Soon™ to a 3 year update cycle

[dusk bronze]

hog wild is actually soon

not Soon™

[late eagle]

There were people saying the newsletter was a state of the game ripoff 😭

[fierce hearth]

I did catch that, I'm expecting it in a measurement of weeks rather than months, let alone years

[late eagle]

God forbids a mod team wanting to talk with their own community

[fierce hearth]

Also god forbid a mod community try to emulate the open communication of the developer of the game? If it ain't broke, don't fix it

Also ffs Re-logic didn't invent the teaser-laden public statement

[late eagle]

It's not like every freaking game developer makes one of these in the steam news

[tropic jolt]

there was no silksong at the calamity direct 💔

[late eagle]

They clearly invented the public announcement text

[polar tide]

this is batshit insane lol

[fierce hearth]

Me waiting for the FFXIV Lodestone to announce the next major patch so I can go on reddit and say they ripped off the Calamity community newsletter

[pseudo vector]

if we really wanted to rip off the state of the game we would add a fanart section and also talk about a board game (which we don't have)

[late eagle]

And even if y'all did what would be the problem

[pseudo vector]

the newsletter is pretty much just our new way of communicating with the community when we have stuff to share so

[amber egret]

divine swine in the wood house (crown of thorns)

[amber egret]

why dont you have a calamity board game

[solemn crest]

Give me a week and I’ll make one lol

[pseudo vector]

we don't have the money to cover the production costs

[dusk bronze]

@deft lily fix this

[solemn crest]

We doin TTRPG or actual board game?

[late eagle]

Calamity VR

That's what we are doing

[solemn crest]

my eyes after spawning providence

Uhh, here’s a question

[late eagle]

Abyss will be Subnautica levels of fear and dread

[solemn crest]

Where Deerclops lore item??!!!

[dusk bronze]

she ain't canon

[tropic jolt]

calamity turn based rpg

[dusk bronze]

crossover content

[solemn crest]

Untrue

Everything is canon

[late eagle]

Amen for that

[solemn crest]

It IS canon that the Terrarian killed DoG with Rubico prime

[late eagle]

I really do not like the existence of bosses from other games in terraria

I'm okay with crossover content but bosses and an entire event is too much bro

[stiff light]

add death from dead cells

[dense sundial]

You mean other games, right?

[late eagle]

Ah

Yeah

[dense sundial]

Chat what do we think about Palworld having Moon Lord

[late eagle]

Idk I don't play pal world

[stiff light]

who does

[polar tide]

fanart section for newsletters could legit be kinda cute thanks for the idea reddit whiners

[late eagle]

Yeah that would be cool

[stiff light]

rare reddit w

[grave rock]

Wjere yharim bum redigit

[solemn crest]

I think you should do it. Brings the community together AND spites Reddit??? Absolute win

I should play more than pals when it releases tbh

we can work it into the next one

[late eagle]

[solemn crest]

Imagine fan builds 🤔

[tropic jolt]

building in calamity?

[young notch]

It’s a facet of Terraria

[late eagle]

Fan builds would be really cool

[stiff light]

isnt that more just a terrar thing

[late eagle]

With block from the mod

[stiff light]

not a calam thing

[late eagle]

That would actually be awesome

[solemn crest]

Calamity has a VERY nice block palette

[late eagle]

Wdym

[stiff light]

building

[solemn crest]

navystone ❤️❤️❤️

[late eagle]

Maybe, and that's awful

Calamity has some really nice blocks

[stiff light]

im full of awe

i think also maybe people find builds less impressive than other art

We shouldn’t put kitties in that cruel world

[frail owl]

am i within your budget?

[solemn crest]

How much are you?

[agile latch]

Yharim killed all cats, together with the mammoths

Cannonical fact

[fierce hearth]

If you stealth strike the kittens they create a dust cloud where paws and shit poke out of them

[solemn crest]

the kitties!!?

Happy days???

[rare tinsel]

sorbet cafe personally helped me out on a project

[solemn crest]

Real ones remember Yrimir

[deft lily]

true

[solemn crest]

Just kinda vanished one day, sad

[deft lily]

now those are both names ive not heard in a long time

[deft lily]

idk abt happy days but yrimir moved on from youtube last i recall

for mental health reasons

[cinder mural]

i often made my arena similar to yrimir's arena used in the expert moon lord video

last time i did that was in mod of redemption

[deft lily]

i remember when i could barely beat expert mode vanilla terraria

ahhh good times

[solemn crest]

There was also Hero

[deft lily]

oh yeah...

😔

[solemn crest]

Isn’t hero’s mod modern day gameiki?

[blazing field]

was taking with my gf and had a epiphany

this is undeniably true and you have to live with it

[vivid hemlock]

new npc, new accessories, whimsy, new enemies...

[uncut briar]

whats the direction

[blazing field]

deadass

the direction is Hog

[uncut briar]

pig

?

ah

one of those updates

[blazing field]

almost everything about this update centers around this godamn pig

its not like bountiful harvest where its like. hey heres this silly creature that is one of 500 random things in this update

almost everything is connected to the damn pig somehow

[dull heart]

proof?

what if there's 5000 changes you don't know about

[deft lily]

true...

[blazing field]

nervous gulp ..

[deft lily]

smaller updates will be better for cal in the long run

instead of random shit go update then going silent for 2-3 years

[dull heart]

yeah

even if the updates are or aren't super thematically consistent

just being common is already way beetter

[blazing field]

thats true

[dull heart]

it is true tho that this is the best themed update in a very long time

[deft lily]

if another update like brainstorm happens then something seriously went wrong

lmao

[blazing field]

from what im seeing there are definitely some miscellaneous features but

most thing sconnect back to, sine

swine

[dull heart]

it still will have other random changes (i think i've reworked like 15? items or so?) but it also has a clear focal point

[blazing field]

and its just really nice getting a update that adds some much needed whimsy to cal lol

[dull heart]

brainstorm there was random stuff and nothing at all that could be considered a focal point

[deft lily]

"erm this isnt sso-" horrible hog

[dull heart]

this update is basically Calamity: Joy and Whimsy Edition

it''s so peak

[blazing field]

getting a new update so closely after brainstorm good is a nice indicator of how updates hopefully will be going forward

[dusty tinsel]

The hog when it's horrible

[deft lily]

hello rayse

[dusty tinsel]

The hog when it's divine swine

Hello god of snails

[deft lily]

no

im the god of uhh

idk

[dusty tinsel]

Umbara is one of the few gods spared in yharim's crusade because he is too funny of a little guy

[late eagle]

God of umbaras

[dull heart]

like the new chat tag stuff i showed

[deft lily]

😊

[dull heart]

0% hog related but 100% joy and whimsy

[dusty tinsel]

Everything needs to be hog related or we riot /j

[deft lily]

yeah

[urban cloak]

its

[deft lily]

slighty unrelated feature to hog
outofscopeoutofscope

[dull heart]

(although i don't know if chat tags make it to this update)

(depends on when everything with them is finished)

[urban cloak]

so far divine swine might honestly be some of the best work ive done for the mod and i think thats kinda funny

horrible hog might be up there too

[dull heart]

i peaked at lemon 'nade so like

[deft lily]

the air is getting horrible around you

[dull heart]

i feel you

[pulsar cobalt]

wat does horrible hog do...

[vivid hemlock]

will it summon bad piggies or did it eat them to gain more power...

[dusty tinsel]

Does the horrible hog still instantly kill you like that one clip I saw 😂

It also grew to massive sizes

[late eagle]

It's so funny that this update is the literal culmination of triangle's twisted dreams

[dusty tinsel]

That's was funny

[vivid hemlock]

that was the cadaverous carrion

[dull heart]

i was looking back and

[deft lily]

byeah
fuck what ppl say abt yharim taking 10 more years
horrible hog

[dull heart]

i actually have no idea how lemon 'nade started

[urban cloak]

well its not done yet which is why i said "might"

[dull heart]

genuinely 0 idea when or where the idea came into my mind

[urban cloak]

he is coming along well though

[dusty tinsel]

Horrible hog does horrible things duh

[urban cloak]

quite literally the only thing ive worked on today

[pulsar cobalt]

a dream

[heavy sphinx]

Oink oink

[dusty tinsel]

Horrible hog commits war crimes

[deft lily]

correct me if im wrong but i feel like the horse pushed for sso after 22 out of spite of the people who left...

me thinks...

[dusty tinsel]

The horse

[dull heart]

it wasn't even a dream

tbh... i don't even know if fab was the one pushing SSO

[urban cloak]

idk what the horse was thinking after 22 but i get the vibe that they just went with sso cause they were still following the pre-22 roadmap

[dull heart]

i think it was just The Plans That Existed and nobody knew what to do post-22

[deft lily]

i see

[dull heart]

so they went with The Plans

[deft lily]

yeah fair

[vivid hemlock]

mhm the old roadmap

[late eagle]

It was me

[dull heart]

make the black thing green and this is literally what my programmer art looks like for it

[urban cloak]

considering there was an update named "from the ashes" right after 22 tho you're probably kinda right about the spite part

[late eagle]

I was the plan all along

[deft lily]

lmao what

[deft lily]

yeah im not surprised

[urban cloak]

wulfrum update was the last proper pre-22 update

[earnest jewel]

What was happening in 2022?!

[deft lily]

can't wait for calamity fabful!

[dull heart]

fixes

[urban cloak]

well a lot of those are bug fix patches man so

bug fixing?

[deft lily]

[uncut briar]

no that was the direction before 22

[pulsar cobalt]

doing a bountiful harvest (aka making changes across the entire game to put in one giant update)

[uncut briar]

so like the 3-4 remaining devs just picked up on that

[deft lily]

yeah but what i meant was i wouldn't have been surprised if he pushed it out of spite of the ppl who left in a sort of "hah! we don't need you!" sort of way

[dull heart]

no what he did out of spite was rework crabulon

[urban cloak]

i mean its possible but from the short time i got to see fab work he honestly didn't do much of

anything

for sso

just kinda did whatever came to his mind

[deft lily]

i see

[dull heart]

yeah he seemed entirely disconnected the entire time

i was there

[deft lily]

do i even wanna know

[pulsar cobalt]

"rework"

[dull heart]

by rework i mean

de-work because the boss no longer functions

[deft lily]

go my shittlings..?

[blazing field]

classic mode crabulon.mp4

[late eagle]

Pirate Crabulon will save all of us one day🙏

[dull heart]

cue the crapture post

[urban cloak]

at most he wouldve reworked the bosses and minibosses but fab doesn't work with placeholder assets so literally nothing was being done in that department cause scourge, clam and cnidrion kept having their designs reiterated

so he just kinda did random shit

[dull heart]

hell gen rework...

[urban cloak]

like that one underworld gen rework that was in changelogs

[dull heart]

my testing world still has the hell gen rework

it's eek

[urban cloak]

mine as well

[pseudo vector]

same here

[earnest jewel]

What happened to Hell?

[pseudo vector]

its so cursed

[dull heart]

actually... is it in the 1.4.4 branch still...?

[urban cloak]

the structures that stip made are nice thats about all the props i can give it

[pulsar cobalt]

also a reminder about the from the ashes name

[urban cloak]

might be worth checking cause idk

[pseudo vector]

i think it was removed from the 1.4.4 branch before brainstorm???

[late eagle]

Couldn't y'all touch the world generation? Was he the one who would make the sunken sea?

[deft lily]

i actually have a test branch of the distortion
trust....

[dull heart]

we couldn't do anything fabsol disagreed with

period

[pearl sentinel]

fabsol vs yandere dev that one jjk panel strongest in history etc etc

[urban cloak]

no other people did worldgen he just woke up one morning and decided he was reworking hell gen

[pulsar cobalt]

hell gen changes doesnt exist currently i dont think

[dull heart]

correct

[urban cloak]

multiple people thaat weren't fab did sso worldgen throughout the years

[dull heart]

we undid them for brainstorm

[deft lily]

fabsol gatekeeped a lot of shit outside of bosses as well

[urban cloak]

but this was kind of the gist of it

if he vetoed something that was it

[late eagle]

Wow

[uncut briar]

yes he does, look at storm weaver

[pseudo vector]

i'm honestly glad i left when i did cuz i don't think i could have put up him post-22

at least he's gone now and i don't have to put up with his dumb ass

[urban cloak]

storm weaver is not real i choose not to see it

[deft lily]

storm weaver isn't real it cant hurt you

[deft lily]

im suprised ppl put up with his bullshit for as long as they did

[urban cloak]

i genuinely do not like the current fight idk what he was thinking when he made it

doze you need to rework it sometime

[earnest jewel]

Storm Weaver is propaganda to make people think Calamity only adds worm bosses.

[pulsar cobalt]

circle phase 1 and then run for phase 2 and 3

[deft lily]

if i had to deal with him for like a week i would've lost my mind lmao

[urban cloak]

its the extra ice wave and tornado projectiles that annoy me

[uncut briar]

Is it still the lc/cloud elemental projectile walling spam

[urban cloak]

like it was tolerable before that but then those just got tacked on and its like ????

yes its still that it sucks

it still uses the cultist lighting orb too

[uncut briar]

fight was fine its just essenceless

[pulsar cobalt]

the tornados are so??? i think theyre made to constrict your horizontal movement but u can just go under or above them and not deal with them at all

[deft lily]

i think storm weaver should uhhh

i think he should kill you

yeah

[uncut briar]

and theyre ugly as fuck !

[hushed mountain]

he should storm and weave

[uncut briar]

fatass

[dull heart]

i tried

[uncut briar]

redesign your chassis

[boreal edge]

Tornadoes are in like top 5 biggest failures in boss design in the mod
They cannot decide whether they are trying to be area denial or a pseudo-arena

[dull heart]

i was vetoed

[uncut briar]

Pre or post fabsol annihilation

[dull heart]

post

[uncut briar]

well either way there’s a time and place for everything

random boss rework jumpscare unrelated to other things is probably just gonna create more work down the line

[urban cloak]

eh fair you'll tackle it later

[amber egret]

tornados from Yharon or the fakenados from Dragonfolly

[uncut briar]

also the birb/yharon walls are also ugly as hell

[amber egret]

or the Cthulhunados from Duke Fishron because i know calamity fucks with them some how

[dull heart]

context: #458430366139678742 message

[uncut briar]

well we were talking

stormweaver

[amber egret]

#unknown

[uncut briar]

which just spams the cloud ele tornados in a wall

[amber egret]

oh right those

the sand elemental tornadosbut recolored and stretched

[urban cloak]

i dont think we touch the projectile directly but duke spawns them during phase 3 in rev/death (cant remember which)

(not a good change)

[amber egret]

Awesome

[boreal edge]

Death Mode makes the bolts instantly gain maximum velocity on spawn

[uncut briar]

i will call for the death of death mode until it happens

[amber egret]

death alr is a stinker

bc its master and master is a stinker

[urban cloak]

alr yea i remember this

[polar tide]

https://tenor.com/view/please-kitten-gif-11673013

[grim pecan]

What does this do that the current healing potions do not

[tidal steeple]

Possibly chance

What if dash keybind will eventually removed from the mod when tmodloader 1.4.5 is out?

It is said 1.4.5 has a dash keybind

[misty wren]

if vanilla adds a mechanic thats identical to a calamity mechanic the calamity mechanic will be removed

[tidal steeple]

Ok

[grim pecan]

dash keybind and the screenshake slider will be moved to vanilla's

the screenshake slider is a little more nuanced since it's a slider rather than a simple on/off, but yeah it'll just be moved to vanilla's

[tidal steeple]

Ok time to go

[cinder mural]

Wait
1.4.5 has a screen shaker?

[dull heart]

hey censor that

what is this lol

what is hote in terms of this

[dull heart]

heart of the elements

[amber egret]

oh right thats an item

[halcyon seal]

Still pretty good ngl

[dry whale]

doze you should nerf hote to the ground imo

[amber egret]

if i ever use it its for the healing

[dry whale]

all attacks deal 1 damage and rare sand heals 1 hp per heal

[inner timber]

silly question but is there a plan for ascourge to have 'idle' music for when it's alive but not hostile similar to siren's call for the ??? spawn? i think it would be silly

[inner timber]

worth the slot

[dull heart]

no

[dry whale]

😔

I tried

[mystic eagle]

Doze you should remove HotE

[earnest jewel]

Buff it immensely, but the game spams messages insulting you for using it.

[blazing field]

doze you and/or another developer should rework HotE and make it an actually interesting item both on a conceptual level and on a mechanical one

[lyric trellis]

HotE will manifest into doze’s deck building concept clearly

[amber egret]

doze you (yes, you) should make an omni-elemental that replaces hote

[earnest jewel]

Add the Lungs of the Elements.

[vivid hemlock]

Why does everyone hate the shit out of vaema

What sin did he committed

[wise bolt]

cant tell if ur being fr or joking

[hasty tangle]

ive wondered about that as well

[still bluff]

tofu backreading

[deft lily]

Vaema?

[hasty tangle]

he seems to have a negative reputation, but ive seen them in cmt and they seemed fine

[deft lily]

no idea who that is

[wise bolt]

if ur being fr please god do not take eveyrhting i say i wanna do as something im gonna do for cal

😭

[late eagle]

Like, dude looks kinda snob but that's all to it

[hollow harness]

oh Vaema, curious individual

[late eagle]

Idk why it seems every dev just hates his balls or something

[hasty tangle]

trying to find the five nights at vaema's gif

[wise bolt]

nosy (want to know what people might be talking about me for

[deft lily]

the devs hate everyone clearly

[wise bolt]

fuck u die

[deft lily]

they are evil and want to KILL YOU

see

[wise bolt]

BAHAH

[late eagle]

[deft lily]

jokes aside ive never heard of this vaema individual until now so idk what to make of him

[hollow harness]

finding anything vaema ever (the information is decentralized and scattered across cal subservers)

[dull heart]

wait

cook

[lyric trellis]

Stealing code iirc, generally just being uncomfortable and weird to be around, and I remember we banned him from nohit for supposedly being transphobic in a vc but don’t quote me

[deft lily]

this guy?

[hasty tangle]

@lyric trellis do you have the gif?

[late eagle]

Ough

Damn

[hasty tangle]

yes

[deft lily]

i see

[late eagle]

He seemed like a weird guy but yeah, that's not good

[hollow harness]

Stealing code part was from which mod? WotG?

[lyric trellis]

Gonna have to be more specific than that

[vagrant wind]

I found this is it accurate I wasnt there

[hasty tangle]

the five nights at vaema's gif

[lyric trellis]

I do not

[deft lily]

tldr being...?

[wise bolt]

aureus is grapes

[deft lily]

mmm

grapes

😋

[blazing field]

astrum aureus is a goofy ass name

[deft lily]

your a goofy ass name

/j

[blazing field]

its incorrect translation dosent amke any sense and its actual translation tries to make sense but fails at it

[fathom girder]

ah, I just took it too literally

[blazing field]

golden star is completely random

[fathom girder]

also wtf that was a month ago lmao

[blazing field]

and then the

actual meanin

based of the bacteria

you can basically jut say it means Astral Infection dawg

ah yes, the astral infection boss, the astral infection

it dosent help draedon calls them the Aureus Models too

[misty wren]

my favorite boss from the astral infection the astral infected

[blazing field]

which means the Aureus name in-universe has nothing to do with it being infected, despite being based of a bacteira as a obvious allusion to the infection

draedon just called it that because idk

[wise bolt]

[blazing field]

astrum deus is fine as is it makes enough sense

[fathom girder]

Draedon likes the words

[wise bolt]

funny as fuck tbh

[misty wren]

it sounds awesome

[blazing field]

but specially given how confusing it is

i wouldnt , be against

aureus getting renamed

theres plenty of reasons for it lol

[wise bolt]

defo

[fathom girder]

should name it astrageldon and make it a slime based boss

tbh

[wise bolt]

-# i'm attached to aureus though. but when it comes to that point i'll let the rest of the team decide lo

[lyric trellis]

This was before it existed, but whatever it was lucille had apparently confronted him about it (not saying it’s related to her specifically, also this was like 3+ years ago) so yeah

[deft lily]

i see
and hes also just really uncomfortable to be around?

[blazing field]

like sure Deus is technically incorrect spelling or whatever but who gaf

astrum, its infected by the astral, its from space

deus, its worshipped as a god, its the star god guy, yeah,

it works

[wise bolt]

[deft lily]

im kind of concern abt that cuz the last person i heard of being really weird towards people was cosmore and was
well
he had to be dealt with

[blazing field]

vaema

mao

lmao

one of the users of all time

[misty wren]

i think it being the Aureus model recon robot would at least kinda make sense and be consistent with how draedon sometimes names other stuff

[blazing field]

Exept the name Aureus itself makes no sense

[fathom girder]

does it need to

[blazing field]

does it need to? no, you don't need many things

[lyric trellis]

From what I’ve heard yeah, but I’m not gonna act like I know what he’s like in 2026 just saying what I recall over the years, anyway probably should talk about this here

[still bluff]

calamity doesn't need yharim

[blazing field]

"does it need to" is generally not a good argument because you can say you dont need boss reworks or you dont need more content or etc

[wise bolt]

imagine if draedon just had a bunch more if aurei stashed away

[deft lily]

yeah probably not

[wise bolt]

10 million shitlets. go

[deft lily]

anyways

[fathom girder]

I was more implyin' like

[deft lily]

gondal

[blazing field]

youre essentially just avoiding critique by saying that rather than addressing it

[deft lily]

big fat fuck

[blazing field]

thats my dog

[wise bolt]

https://tenor.com/view/gondal-gif-19517665

[fathom girder]

is he that important to need a big ol' namedrop or can he just be a guy

[deft lily]

no way

[blazing field]

its not about it needing a big namedrop

It's because the name fundamentally does not make sense

[misty wren]

while yes he can just be a guy the name aureus isnt really thematic to it

[wise bolt]

naming my mech gold star because he gets a gold star for trying. duh

[blazing field]

Astrum Aureus (Aureus comes from a bacteria type)

Astrum coming from the Astral Infection, sure. that works, even if it's kinda confusing

However for Aureus:

[deft lily]

naming astrum asureus the interstellar stomper

boom problem solved

[blazing field]

• It does not make sense in the context of the boss itself. Why is it called basically the Astral Infection/Infected/Bacteria? It's a robot that has been infected by the Astral, this name is extremely redundant and does not apply to the boss anymore than it applies to literally any other astral creature

[misty wren]

it making sense if draedon does it is specifically because sometimes draedon just names shit things

[fathom girder]

he vaguely looks like a phage

ig

[rose laurel]

I sense this will be a point of contention in the future.

[blazing field]

• It does not make sense in the lore context because Draedon named the model series Aureus, which is arguably even wrose because now the scout machine is named after Bacteria for some reason

[hasty tangle]

petition to rename deus and/or aureus so that they both dont start with the word "astral" to prevent confusion

[lyric trellis]

Interstellar stomper dropping the interstellar stompers 🔥

[deft lily]

exactly

[wise bolt]

i can recognize it's personal bias, hence i'm happy to go with what the rest of the team feels most fit

[pearl sentinel]

while you're there can you rename interstellar stompers back to gravistar sabaton

[lyric trellis]

Astral is truly the thing ever

[blazing field]

• Even if you are thinking about it being Aureus as in derived from Auric, Aureus dosen't have any association with either Gold in the real life meaning of Auric or the meaning of Auric in the context of calamity

[wise bolt]

my thingfailire

💖

[deft lily]

i wonder what the astral infection tastes like

[blazing field]

Overall Astrum Aureus is a name you can tell had like no thought put into it and just becomes more of a mess the more you think about it

[lyric trellis]

Save it

[deft lily]

mmmm

[blazing field]

thanks for listening yto my ted talk

[misty wren]

aureus should just be renamed (ideally deus gets renamed too but thats for different reasons than it being confusing with aureus)

[wise bolt]

prion disease

[hasty tangle]

not this shit again

[deft lily]

yummers

[blazing field]

I think Astrum Deus is fine

[deft lily]

again?

-# 😨

[rose laurel]

You already know our stance on this.

[urban cloak]

gp i feel like you should be used to it by now

[wise bolt]

-# iii forgot

[misty wren]

it was the gold standard of recon robots so it got named the gold model

[blazing field]

And yes i do not think something something calamity god is a good reason for it and in fact i think lore people have a poor view on the word "god" in the calmaity context

tahts my hot take for the day

[hasty tangle]

i am used to it, but i can still complain about it

[rose laurel]

We don't want Aureus to be a boss, plain and simple.

[vivid hemlock]

i acgree

[wise bolt]

oh idgaf about whether or not aureus is a boss its just about the name

[urban cloak]

yknow what fair ill respect it

[blazing field]

i think its fine to call things that arent calamity mod absorbed auric soul things gods as long as you're making it clear in a convo you're not reffering to them as such, actually

i think in fact in universe this would happen alot of the time

[wise bolt]

-# satisfied so long as aureus still has a place in the mod

[blazing field]

do you guys think the people who worshipped deus as a god didnt call it,

[wise bolt]

[blazing field]

a god

[wise bolt]

[blazing field]

do you guys think xeroc just acme up wtih the title of god when he ascended with no prior reference of what a god is

[deft lily]

i called deus "jerry"

[lyric trellis]

They referred to the lore document to make sure they were calling deus the appropriate name

[deft lily]

idk deus seems like a jerry kind of guy

[still bluff]

jered

[deft lily]

or, thing rather

[rose laurel]

My question is whether or not you think Xeroc even said that.

[wise bolt]

bubby.

[deft lily]

[blazing field]

thats also true, lol
