FYI, when you start in the Neowin house do not drop down to see the nurse or merchants unless you want to quit the server and enter again. It seems that you can't quite jump back upstairs.

Aside from that though, I'm getting involved. Just started to construct a house for myself, and I've got quite a mine running underneath it. :D

EDIT: An overview of the area at the moment:

I'm not finding many resources at the second, but meh.

Thanks Frank. Logged in as password updated

The first player I saw yesterday!

So here's an update on my progress. I took Draconian Guppy's advice and kept going down:

If you look over to the right you can see a cavern that I fell in to, filled with water. Thankfully just before my air ran out I was able to carve a hole through to another section of my tunnel. The downside of that is that now one of my tunnels is completely flooded. :( Thank goodness I have multiple routes available!

I'm glad I'm coming across more caverns, though. Not only does it make progress easier, but it's fascinating to come across them and see where they go.

I might have a slight addiction to this game already...

See that red X down towards the bottom? Watch your footing around there. I just slipped and fell in to a cavern filled with bats and a medusa. Now I've got to get back there to get my coins. :s

Also, the tunnel that goes the furthest to the left is as far as you can get for the second. I've got a platinum pickaxe, but you need at least a Nightmare or Deathbringer pickaxe (I think) to get through the hellstone. Then again, if I'm getting beaten by bats and medusas, maybe I shouldn't attempt that just yet. :p

It's a pity there aren't more of us online at the same time - or at all - but I'm still having a blast! :D

no one looked for the floating islands yet?

Not yet. I know I could try looking using wooden platforms, but that seems inefficient. :p

Oh, I think my game updated while I was away. I can contact the server but I can't connect. :( "Your version isn't the same as the server" or some such.

I guess that's a 2 week hiatus for me then, I don't want to do singleplayer and get awesome then go back to wherever I am on the Neowin server. :p

Try again - I've updated the server. It should work now.

I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong, but the commands aren't working? I tried "/login intrinsica <password>" but it just displayed it as text. Then I tried "/help", same thing. The only other command I tried was "/playing", and that seemed to work.

I have no idea to be honest. Nor do I have the ability to play the game at the moment, since I don't have a Windows machine at hand and there is no OS X client for the game yet.

I could join maybe. But i don't know the game much. I don't play that often either.

 

How does it work in multiplayer. If it's competitive and the other players can kill you then it's not for me.

 

Do i need to create a new toon for the multi?

PvP is turned off by default. You can turn it on and select a team to be on if you want, but you don't have to.

I don't think you need to create a new character. Lousifer logged in and his character seemed quite leveled up, and I think I took my character from the Neowin server and used it in Singleplayer - this can be useful if you need to find a specific item, as you can try finding the item in multiple worlds.

Just lost connection to the server, but I'm going to try again.

Two things:

 

1. the server going down just now was my fault. It's up again.

Ah, ok. (Y)

2. whatever they changed in 1.3.0.6 doesn't let me add players anymore...

I think this is related to what I said earlier about not needing to be logged in in order to change the world. I've also seen that the enemies have gained supernatural powers. They spawn, disappear at random, can still attack you while you can't see/attack them...

I would suggest we avoid playing on it for the moment. :(

    • Apple MacBook Neo is a blessing for Windows users, here's why

      By +samw61 · Posted

      Looks a very subjective aren't they!? I like its simple design. I love the way Apple designs their products with function over form, minimalization, and simplicity over cluttered complex designs. Many, not all, of their products follow this trend, and the device becomes a tool rather than dominating the space. I do not however like their OS. I have never bought a Apple product, and while I'd consider the Neo for my wife, I am hoping there are better alternatives out there when her failing MacBook Pro 2017 finally stops. Fischer-Price is famously plastic, garish, and poorly made. Basically you're describing the Window Laptops the Neo competes against! This is how product design should be, and what Apple have often followed in recent years: https://tenprinciples.design/
    • AV2, successor to popular YouTube, Netflix, Amazon codec AV1, has a hard battle ahead

      By Skyfrog · Posted

      Isn't that true for every codec? I remember having to buy a PCI MPEG-2 decoder card just so I could play DVDs on my computer back in the late 90s. AV1 support is still fairly new.

      I'm no Apple fan, and have never bought an Apple product for myself. But I'd argue that where you think Apple is behind regarding an OLED display, that the vast majority of people out there wouldn't even know or care for an OLED. Apple have struck the balance well to create a price point that works, and I hope that PC manufactures, and Microsoft take notice. I'd argue that Asus will struggle to compete with the Neo BECAUSE they put in a more expensive OLED that many people won't actually notice with its deeper blacks. Most people wouldn't care either that their screen is stuck at 60Hz! When I bought a 4k monitor (future proof and for the space), my laptop could only push that out at 30Hz, and it worked fine for my needs for 1.5 years! Heck, the average human eye can't see more than 90Hz in many situations!! So while they are trying to differentiate themselves, and it may well gain them a few customers, for the most part, I think they're missing the point of what the Neo is for.
    • Amazon Greenlights A New "Stargate" Series

      By ryansurfer98 · Posted

      I disagree. Boomer execs only want one thing; money money money. The original fans of the series want a specific reboot that focuses on the vibe and feel of the original series. Boomers don't want that because then they can't have a 8 to 9 figure return. This was canceled because of greed. 
    • Meta rolls out Meta Business Agent globally on WhatsApp, Instagram, and Messenger

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      Meta rolls out Meta Business Agent globally on WhatsApp, Instagram, and Messenger by David Uzondu Image via Meta Meta is expanding Meta Business Agent, a feature that the social media giant promises will help businesses deliver "personalized experiences for customers using AI," launching the tech globally. Before this global release, Meta Business Agent used to be a free test called "Business AI" during a testing phase that started in October 2024. Meta picked India, Mexico, and Brazil to test the software, gathering data from over one million active shops that used the chat tools. The agent works on WhatsApp, Instagram, and Messenger, helping shops answer customer questions, check incoming leads, book appointments, and recommend products from a catalog. Meta said that the business agent can match your brand's unique tone when speaking to customers, and that it plans to improve the feature to handle "daily operations" like market research, product insights, calendars, and rival research. Soon, users will find these AI-supported shops easily by typing names in the WhatsApp search bar. Image via Meta Apart from the Business Agent, Meta is also introducing the Meta Business Agent Platform, a new agentic platform that provides the infrastructure needed to build, customize, and run virtual helpers at scale. With the Platform, companies link their bots to services like Shopify, Zendesk, and Shopee using firm-level controls, guardrails, and metrics to define strict rules. This setup lets coders build custom behaviors, keeping customers happy with direct answers. Speaking of agents, you might have heard that hackers recently broke into Instagram accounts by simply asking the Meta AI support assistant on the mobile app to hand over control. You can check out our coverage on that here.
