NEWS - UPCOMMING PHONE/TABLET VERSION OF RUNESCAPE. Okay I wassen't aple to create a new topic. So had to find a Place to ask this.. Well Ive been wondering about something. I am personally Dying to get a Pocket/Phone/tablet version of Runescape, as the game is so Ideal for sush a thing, to be able to play my favorite game on the Go. Problem and limits are that the gamne is based on a Java Platform, and As for the smart phone and tablet manufactures, they restricted the use of java and flash. And It will never be included in the original software either, cause there is much more money in to not, as people have to invent total new platforms and apps, just for running simply things like youtube for exsampel. And as everything becomes an APP they will get their huge profit of this. Well I know that the HTML5 platform is in theory possible to run on phone and tablets, as a beta version is running ATM on runescape. But this platform is so heavy, and our tabs and phone wont be able to nearly run this platform at an acceptable state, as for hardware issues. Also It would require at least a heavy 4G connection, or better to run. Okay so I though about this for a quite while, and I even have a small private server who runs as an flash/java application Makin me Able to play on my IPhone's and IPad's. I though this would be an good idear, and prolly many people wanting this feature I currently gained. But i guess not many people have a private server, or and knowgle to set up sush a thing at home. And regardless to run this as an app remotely, it would also require some heavy hardware and connection to do it propertly. So I thought about this for long, and decided this, I am Willing to setup a Gigantic proffesionel server with the best hardware and connection speed possible ATM. To run this application for other people to enjoy. When im done, this would just be a simply APP download as u used to, and Via this APP, you be able to play runescape whenever, whereever u want to, even with just 3G network this should work with ease and No lagg. But If i am gonna do this, I need to know first of all, if theres any general interess for my APP on the market asking on this forum, else I would just waste my efford. Secondly I ask you TIP.It kindly if you cost post the APP release and help me promote this, it should benifit the both of us.. Info: Why I need to know if theres a market for this APP, and if It can be promoted is that the first server I planned to buy just to run this and gurantee no lagg, would cost me a range between 90.000EU-120.000. And I predicts 1 server should be able to handle a range between 5-10.000 active playing user simultaneously. <But this I do not know for sure, and therefor need some beta testing, Will be the nxt part I be asking the forums about, as the hole point is to be able to run this 100% smooth, No Lagg, instant respons time, and userfriend/runescape friendly touch based system.. If there will be enough players using this APP, I will ofcause setup more servers, so It never would effect the experience and smoothness of the invidual player. What would this APP cost? I plan this to be a 100% nonprofit organisation, but as im using my personal saving accounts for this project, I need to get the money spend back for the servers. Meaning it be fairly cheap, as if I can get just a couple of thousen who download this APP, then it would maxium be a like 1-3$ or even cheaper if the interess for this are high enough. And be free to use in a later state. And to maintain and run these servers, I would personal do with a couple of game geeking voulanteering friends. Release date for the APP. I have the money to spend the 1th April, and using the meantime to get information from forums, and comunity, get free beta testers, and get a view about the interess of product. It would take me around a week, to setup servers, run some tests, and do some tweaks, to run the best possible proformance. And then 2-3 Weeks of beta testing, and fixing bugs if needed i think. So this would be possible to launch in the end of April. as an Estimated release date. Future: the mainpoint is to be able to play this game on tabs/phones. But when its up running I planned to might add a little to the interface, like buttons for guide, information, calculators, for exsample via using tip.it. I though about swiftkit like interface, but diffrent, so it dossen't effect ur screensize, as the phone and tabs are allrdy limited there. I also plan to add a few hotkey options, to make the touch ingame interface a little smoother. And have a couple of different idears, but these features I will begin work with in the future. Now I just want to hear you guys feedback, if theres any interess. And if Tip.it might be willing to give me promtion, via little frontpage foodnote, or something when we are going online? Thanks for ur time. GIMP
