2nd post woot? 10/10 grats again

grats again

Jagex has a finite amount of money. Any money that they use to develop Mechscape can be seen as money that could have been used for Runescape. Either Jagex has tons of money left over from hosting and developing Runescape that they didn't pour back into the game, OR, they have started to take money normally used for Runescape to develop Mechscape. Either way I find it quite foolish to think that Mechscape has ZERO impact on Runescape. We've also gotten off topic so I don't know how much longer this thread will last.

Funorb has its own devoted area on the runescape website. It is actually listed as a "website feature" of runescape.co (on the left had side of the website, under the kb and online shop and such). they are currently advertising armies of Gielinor. We also have the "funorb digest" as our featured recent news post. our recent RUNESCAPE news. Which is not only sad but against Jagexs initial word. They claimed a while back that they would only advertise on runescape one time to get the ball rolling. They have not stopped advertising since.

I absolutely LOVE when RuneScape releases new things like this. even though I'd like to see more content than graphics, I can't stop myself from getting very exited. Trying to be hopeful here, I'll say there will be content to accompany the graphical upgrades. most preferably a new skill. The only thing i don't really like is the new minimap. I'm all for them changing the way it looks but is adding depth really the way to go? It just seems a little out of place in both screenshots.

I think it would be great if JaGex released more Runescape videos/trailers as advertisement. It could really rile people up and get them exited. The videos could be about new updates or about the existing game.

Keldagrim. Tirannwn. (Lletya) Tree Gnome Stronghold, Tree Gnome Village. Well if you actually read what I posted you would see that I was suggesting new areas with new races specific to those new areas. therefor, I would like to see new races that are area specific. The dwarfs, elves and gnomes were examples. :D Well we're pretty much screwed on high level content. juglyx can't release high level content because they've hit the ceiling (for the most part). Adding better things to the game would, as people have said, be end game. They didn't plan that well in the early days of runescape and now its hard release things without screwing up the balance. like weapons with out accompanying armour to defend against the new weapons. for skill content lets take a look at smithing. The tables have been set from day one. What takes 99 smithing to make only requires 40 defense/attack to wear/weild. So smithing can't really be updated that much farther they have level 99 content that only yields items that are low level. High level content cant be released because they cant go any higher. and with that being true, while they continue to keep the game the same, more and more people reach the "high level" mark, which increases the demand for high level content. what I would really like to see is a new continent with increased skill caps OR with different skill sets (like spellbooks for skills). This would have to be fine tuned of course but there are many ways to go about this. -content exclusive items (ores, fish, trees, weapons, armour) -new items that can be used anywhere but with a balanced item-level progression -with skill cap increase we could make dragon items. level 100 for 1 bar dragon items, 101 for 2 bar etc. -tons of other stuff. lyl, spiroff <3

Hey sorry for my late response, I've been running errands for a while. First off let me make it clear that I am not trying to compare RS with WoW, nor am I trying to have aspects of WoW added to RuneScape. meaning I would not want the ability to chose races, have mounts, have that ability unlocker (the table thing), or other things that are distinctly WoW. My argument will never be about graphics, content>graphics to me. I would however like to see things expanded in RuneScape. As I said in my first post Now, while guild leveling is distinctly WoW, it is still a new concept that could work in runescape without changing the game horribly. People want more clan content after all. I guess when I said new races I didn't elaborate enough. I do not want playable races but I would like to see area specific races like dwarfs, elves, gnomes to live in the new areas that are developed. I agree, but only to a certain extent. If jubulux only did annual updates things would look larger than we see them, however, the amount of content we are receiving each year seems to be dwindling. especially considering the fact that they no longer release weekly updates. I know jugyl00x doesn't have the budget but we still seem to be getting shortchanged. I think that's all for now. :thumbup:

So I was on Kotaku just now and stumbled upon the new trailer for the new World or Warcraft expansion. After seeing this trailer I kind of want to try it out. It seems to have things that I would like to see added to Runescape. Cataclysm trailer Things like: -map expansions. more diverse landscapes -new races to accompany the new maps -new skill(s) -deeper core quest. -new items/abilities -new monsters -new quests -guild leveling I know that WoW has a much larger budget than RuneScape but I feel we could have more updates than we do. If runescape has 1million subscribers that pay 5$ per month thats $5million/month or $60million/year. That figure doesn't include advertising revenue. now what do you think it costs to run runescape per year? The server hosting can't be that much per year and paying workers can't be that horrible either. I know i'm missing things that run up the bill but the leftover money could very well be used to develop future content. What type of things do you want to see in RuneScape in the near/distant future? And do you think you might want to try WoW cataclysm? discuss pl0x

these bonuses should have been in skill capes from the start. that was the original suggestion anyways.

stellardawn.com It takes you to funorb. -This either means that it's a funorb game. -Jagex is trying to be sneaky and make you think its a funorb game. -They're trying to make you play funorb games.

I believe they mentioned something about runescape on Rob&Big. Either one of them or both of them played. or maybe that bum that lives with them played.

it's gonna be something stupid. I wouldn't be surprised if it was similar to the signs that show you how many guards have been killed in a day. so you could see how many nat runs you've done, how many of "x" monster you've killed, how much gold you've had total. it may also be used to show how many hours of gameplay you have and stuff like that.

Just made a new account out of boredom. Don't know if this is special at all but it was fun getting 1-29 smithing so fast.

congratulations =D>

One more to 80 mage pl0x. So you may notice that the statistics menu looks different. Thats because I'm OCD and hate the current cramped black background look. so yeah, below is a side by side of the new and old. [hide=stats] you can move the scroll bar to the right more to give the skills more room but I didn't.[/hide]

80 crafting \ [hide=76-79 craft] [/hide] then 78 mage

pretty sweet.

grats maaaang, get sum prayer pl0x. :thumbup:

grats :thumbup:

Nice mining level. I plan to get 99 at some point in the next year as well.
