YAYAY!!!!! Great Update!!!!

YAY, FINALLY!
Great job at you guys <3

YES YES YES YES LOL i was just midning my own business watching a soap, i saw little message pop up 'terraria has finished downloading' and i got a chill and rushed over here

Edit: IMO as far as rocket boots are concerned, I did always think they were overpowered... fun as they may be. Eventually, as this game continues to get even larger, I would enjoy seeing them return (that is if the devs dont change it back now, obviously alot of people are complaining). To me it just felt like something too powerful to get too early in the game. You guys need to realize that as they continue to add more content, they will continue to make tweaks or even downgrades when necessary, to make room for the newer items/ biomes that could come in the future. Again, i wouldnt mind seeing the rocket boots, as they were, return somewhere much further down the line. Also, i have suspected that the developers were going to make reductions in weapons like the muramasa/sunfury, to help make better progression as they will continue to add new biomes and newer tiers of weaponry. Really great update, totally digging the new oceans, as they were wayyyy too small before. The underwater NPC's are just totally awesome and add alot of atmosphere. The new jungle tune is also real nice. The music is no donkey kong country, but its still very fitting.

WOOHOOOOO!!!
