Don't expect too much. Our F2P voice isn't loud enough :mellow: Quote's from Andrew from the Q & A sessions:

1 Oziach from Dragon Slayer is a kind of slayer master, upgrade him. 2 Make the monster only one time a day (per player) attackable to prevent overconsumption on F2P and P2P. This will make arrange teams and teamplay relevant, nobody want to lose their once a day battle. 3 Drops maximum on 1 mill otherwise many F2P players will invest their new earned money in big bones and will rise more due to new prayer trainers.

What do you think about an emperor scorpion? :roll:

I don't fit in any of those categories, cuz i'm not a fat American. I'm F2P and i never eat fast food and not so often popular brands of fizzy drinks. Bitter lemon is my favourite drink. Slim lined good educated Europeans FTW :thumbsup:

Hey 5743, i just spotted you at the runite rocks. You took my runite ore, but you deserved it more than me. You did an amazing F2P job. =D>

All I know is that I'm passing a good 10 people in the list that have quit with this new skill. Say hello to the rank 80's. Maur choose for exile but i saw him yesterday. And friend of me saw him ingame at grand exchange 3 days ago. My Maur-home-teleport-curse works. He's still here on low profile. :smile:

I feel the same. In december i thought i can reach total 1333, but now... I try to boost my firemake and crafting soon.

To be honest, i love afk-able skills. I'm mostly playing RuneScape with my laptop in the livingroom. That means if i'm clicking alot (firemaking), after some time mom starts asking; can you stop with that smashing on your mouse/keyboard? It's annoying. Fishing is irl a way to relax and a game is also mostly a way to relax, if you ask me. There should be more respect for these skills. We are not all plain lazy. I mine or firemake on other times when i am alone at home. It's a sort of time management. Something different: I hear information about the fact the new F2P skill is coming next tuesday. It's so long ago F2P had such a giant update. It gives me the same feeling again when i was young and counted days till it was Christmass. I can't waiiiiiit anymore! :ohnoes: Maxed out F2P will be then at 1593, that give some aberations in the hiscores. And what will happen if all players left what they where doing and start to play the new skill? Will raw materials rise or lower? Less coal miners or less smithers? Same with fishmen and woodcutters. What will crash and what will rise? I can't forcast that. Interesting new times will come.

He is a maxed f2per and I agree with him. Mod MMG hasn't done [cabbage] for F2P in the past year. Also, maxing is a fair amount of time that could be spent doing other things. Sure I'm making assumptions here and there are many reasons that involves someone spending that much time playing RS, but it is a long time to play single game. Why doesn't Jagex say honestly the advertisement market crashed due to the global economic flaw. Papers and websites have financial problems of this, it can't be true Jagex feels nothing financially. I have the feeling F2P content is 'frozen' cause of this. Maur got some good points about F2P but is a bit overreacting (flaming). If he posted some good idea's to upgrade free world, he had more credibility.

I'm pretty sure you're still coming back. I cursed you with my mauranius home teleport-spell. :smile:

See you soon Maur. I'm pretty sure you're back when the new F2P skill is with us. Just take break for now, you earned that. :wink: It's true, Jagex is pampering the members way to much. New dungeons brings new items and more drops. In the godwars dungeon players can get an incredible amout of items, living rock caverns gives alot of congregated coal and gold, membership prayertraining influences the F2P community. After time, we F2P feel the consequenses of that. Prices rise and others decrease just because of the new flow into the economy. Jagex stated F2P is a game on it's own but the economy isn't. There is a good reason to grumble about Jagex actions. But i'm sure there is coming a new age. An age with decay in membership interest and increase of the F2P status. Other MMO games also started free player gaming content, they want to rival with Runescape. Jagex have to upgrade free world soon to keep the leadership in free player gaming. ~Greedy44~

This topic is all yours now again.

From a F2P player view... \ Just to keep membership players their feet grounded with the rest of Runescape community. Be happy with all updates you already got. Got all spirit shield yet?

I still support this tread, but i see now more players suggesting the archeology skill on the official forum. I don't know if i can support those treads, i see those treads not as the "offcial archeology idea". Are these guys you friends or lousy copiers?

Yes, someone with wrong intensions can manipulate the global opinion quite easy. It's about free players who really care about the game, mostly the high leveled ones.

i'm glad that Jagex give us finaly a voice :) I'm sure, if the F2P forum comes online i will post there some idea's i always had in mind for past 4 years. Big difference is, Tip.it is a discussionsite and RSOF a site with (small) input to the real game. The 1000+ or 1100+ total level is a fair requirement, most players with these stats putted some real dadication in their account and know their small world inside out. They know what F2P is missing and what is annoying. Ofcourse, the asking for old member items and skills will start there the same way as here (like weaving, is any member doing that small branch of the crafting skill?). The unfair combat triangle from mages view will garranteed show up. Prayer suggestions, training that skill on F2P is insane. And members will freak out like they always do if the word 'F2P' is in the air no matter what it is. Give it a try and maybe it will be a mature and better forum than the members version.

I agree with you there are some gaps in the F2P combat triangle, especially magic got some problems. Otherwise you have to accept that melee armors will be forever more fancy and costly than robes by the main public. So may i do a suggestion, make a combination of the demand of skill capes on F2P and elite black armor. If you have achieved one or more skills to level 99, you can wield elite black armor and dagon'hai robes. Elite armor will be really elite and respectfull on F2P. I admit i'm not original, i just put two topics together. Why not making the best of both of them? :) Now i give Dagon'hai robes as example but that can also be splitbark.

Well i'm total F2P and ofcourse it is nice to have a new quests, but this is not the most desirable update i want. I prefer longterm benefits as minigames+rewards and skill updates above shortterm content like quests. You can do the quest in 3 hours and that was the F2P content for whole year. But i have to say that Jagex opened them selves this discussion with the green 3-headed dragon below Lumbridge, that's giving false hope.

I did wc 99 all the way from lvl 60 to 99 on yew logs and 99 fishing from lvl 55 to 99 all the way on swordfish+tuna. I know i'm quite rare on F2P, i don't know anybody else who did the same. But for me it is just playing the game how it is intentionally meaned to be. BTW i can pay a purple partyhat with that. Come on fellow F2P'ers!

- Lumbridge swamp, there are some small changes like Father Urhney's wooden shed and water altar, but the small lakes and woodtrunks are the same. - Tutorial Island hasn't changed much. - Wilderness got some lone old regions like the west church and runes. - Zamorak temple where the zamorak whine is on the table, exactly the same as always been there. ? I have to check out Frog Island from random event. I'm not sure about that. O, please Jagex don't erase all left overs! Leave some nostalgic areas and items.

On F2P we have general stores to dump junk, i feel pity for you members.

no i say bandos bolt =] Well i was not asking that much, but in that case it should be Armadyl bolts. Hmm, get's me on an idea. Why not silver crossbow with prayer bonus? :-k Warriors and mages have both prayer boosting weapons, rangers have not.

What do you think about silver crossbow added with silver and blurite bolts? That's between iron and steel, sounds reasonable i think.

Well if you can't be bothered to just read this topic, I'll explain it simple: There is a quest named Temple of Ikov. In this quest, a fellow named Lucien asks you to retrieve a special staff for him from a temple dedicated to the hero Ikov. After you've ventured deep into the dungeon, you meet a group of warriors loyal to the old, kinda unknown but good god Armadyl. You learn that Lucien is a bad man, and that the staff he wants is actually the Staff of Armadyl himself! Now you can choose: side with the Guardians of Armadyl and kill Lucien, or kill the Guardians, take the staff and give it to Lucien. The big news of the last few days is that if you've completed the quest, and you sided with the Guardians, you will suddenly see a messenger of Armadyl popping up, delivering a message from the leader of the Guardians, and then he dissappears again. Thats the whole piont, the story is completely unknown for me. I play on free worlds who i never left since i started playing (3+ years ago). The guardian is in my eyes a new sort of random event, because he is popping up like randoms do after some period of monotone work (i was doing that at that moment). As i see on pictures and also happened to me, the guardian is popping up in the Rimmington/Port sarim-area. One big difference with random event npc's, he is making up some buzz for a member quest. The letter he gave me is not opening a new quest, it's just a informing letter like you members also get. Maybe i should upgrade to membership. O well, that is just the mindtrick of Jagex... But thanks for your explanation Hippodo.

I spotted the guardian of Armadyl on the cabbage patch north of Port Sarim on world 10 (free player). He came out of nothing and talked with him. I was totally overwelmed by that npc that i forgot to take a snapshot. Can someone tell me what is he? A new sort of random event? I'm never been member so i don't have expirience in member quests. Can someone answer me?
