I played in the regular quality for the longest time, starting in around 2002. After playing other MMO's for a few couple of years, the High Quality update had me interested in Runescape again, no way would I be able to play in the small window version again. It's just too small! Personally though, I don't have the advanced light settings on as they do look too dark in some dungeons, but outside they look good and really bring the game to life.



edit: Don't rag on 3 Hit U, he's been playing longer than the majority of the people in this thread. One of the few recognizable faces from back when I was mostly active.

Erm, sorry? He said something he knew so that he could help someone else. Just because he knows something you don't doesn't mean you can flame him.



OT: Yea, HD in safe mode should lag less, just tried it now and it is faster and looks better \<img src=/' />

Don't you know the first rule of MMO's? Anyone higher level than you has no life, and anyone lower than you is a noob.

I can't handle HD because my video card is a piece of... Well, actually it's a pretty good video card that's worth around $100 in its time. Even though it has an awesomness video RAM of 256 MB, I can't use it for HD because it's damaged somehow. :(

Seeing as how I don't play in HD because my laptop can't handle it, no, I dont take it for granted.



Hopefully, I'll be getting a new laptop around Christmas, one that's like. New. And stuff. So it's all good. :thumbsup:

I hate how the menus work in Fullscreen, so I use fixed. I wish you could have full screen, but with the old menu set up

My laptop, which is supposed to be totally sexy, has a hard time running full screen. In fact, I play on LOW DETAIL with the FIXED SCREEN.



It's so epic fail that I've cut down on my playing time by at least 90%.



Someone help me.


Don't use a laptop. Use a proper computer.


I use a laptop, runs it fine :D

I rarely go on HD, I only do when I'm getting bored because HD makes it look neater. Therefore I don't think I take it for granted.

Personally; I dont use HD because of lag; but for the short time I did use it; I was like "wow". The only thing I didn't like was the outfits, they don't look as good in my opinion. Now, I think most players take the work that Jagex put into this project for granted, and just consider it as everyday RS life.



If you have spare time I would take the time to drop a compliment onto Jagex.

I tried going back to the fixed screen...and could barely take such a small playing screen.

I still prefer the fixed screen to be honest lol.


Im with you. The first day I tried out the resizing window, and just couldn't play with the new interface. I just find it alot quicker to use the interface I know and have played with for almost two years.

Eventhough I've played RSC, beta RS2, crappy RS2 and the new HD, I wouldn't really want to play RS anymore if it went back to Low Detail. It's just unbelievably crappy looking :?

I've played through all of those too, and I agree. The graphics update is a very big step forward, and it improves very much upon the old graphics. :<img src=:' />
