I think budget is probably a fair guess. I mean what financial benefit is there to them by making an app. Are people really likely to start playing the game, or become members because it has an app? I very much doubt it, its just a nice addition to have as well as some good grounds for experimentation with the phone/tablet market.

I am yet to use it as currently as I have no need to use any of the features. I am however highly hopeful that bank access and GE use is a possibility. I would love to be able to do some causal merching whilst I am work and have no access to the actual game. They are definitely making gradual good progress though, it looks nice enough though I do hope there is possibility of an actual app, as oppsed to just the web one.

It's concerning how much more the mods seem to be talking about the restraints of limited dev budgets the last few months. Are things really getting that bad or is it because the graphics required now days are so demanding? Because at the moment what conent do we know is actually being actively bring worked on at the moment other than the elf city and the sodding legacy update. All they ever seem to say about everything else is 'its something wed like to consider in the future'

Wow, so no work on the construction and agility reworks, or the inventor skills has even started at all, and from the sound of it no work will start before the end of the year (at least for construction and agility anyway). It raises the question of why the heck they were made such a fuss about them at Runefest if no work was due to start for a very long time. Did they come up with some random ideas the week before Runefest just so they had something to talk about or something? I just think its a bit misleading and deceiving.

Hi all, I'm sure theres an easy solution to this but its driving me nuts , so any help would be greatly appreciated. Ive recently upgraded from an ancient laptop to a nice new shiny one with a higher resolution. However when i open Runescape everything is really tiny, like the actionbar and all the tabs and text. See photo below. How do I change the resolution so that they are bigger so that i dont have to strain my eyes to play. The only way I can see to change it is to play in fixed screen mode and I dont like using that. I typically play in resizable screen in either Chrome or Firefox .My screen resolution is 1920 x 1080 on my desktop.

Are there any new comp cape requirements with Heist?

I don't PVM much, can someone please explain to me why it is dual weild mage is so powerful and the weapons so valuable? Surely T75 DW would be weaker than a T80 Chaotic staff?

It worries me alot how most of the comments on here and that I've seen on reddit are a resoundsing and well reasoned 'what the heck Jagex, this is a rediculous and terrible idea', yet the poll is a white wash in favour of it. Are that much of the population that moronic and fundamentalist nostaligia heads. It seems a very whacked out priority of Jagex to be investing far more in getting back old players who have quit already (and will most likely quite again at the drop of a hat even if they do come back for a short period), than in getting in the new players that this game really needs to survive. Which as others have said is not goig to improve by making the combat system even more confusing and off putting to a new player.

What are the poll results looking like in game currently? Am at work so can't look.

Yes sure, I would be happy with that if the many other issues with the game were being worked on ,but when its caused byrehashing the same problem over and over again it gets frustrating

Very, very aggravated by the EOC U-Turn, surely all the EOC updates they're testing at the moment meet in the middle with the EOC whingers enough already. Im most annoyed at the effect this will have on the rest of the content for the year. Last year was already pretty desolate for content because so much time was spent fixing the combat system. The EOC updates in beta at the moment are probably already tying up a fair few staff, and now theyre going to have to rebalance and configure whole new style of combat. Woohoo another year of one update a month content we come. GRRRRR. Its for polls like this where I wish it wasnt just whoever gets the most votes wins, as opposed to the high approval rate that was required in the old school polls, because to me a 60-40 win on a yes no poll isnt enough to warrant the time that will need to be invested in this.

Whats the price on the 2 upgrades to jack of trades?

Wait a second , have they not actually started developing the inventor skill at all yet?!? Because they started talking about the second new skill over a year ago now, went on about it most of last year, and gave those pictures at Runefest. Is it really just still something theyve thought about a bit but still havent started programming properly yet. Because if so thats rediculous.

The update as a whole and their responses to feedback really are incredibly frustrating. The original was probably my favourite update of the last 2 or 3 years as this just seems to be half arsed job (and that’s being generous). They seem to have done the same thing they did with Divination and several other updates recently: started hyping the update up many months before they even started work on it, and then rush it out with minimal work. This way of doing it means disappointment is the only possible outcome. And to say they did it because of development and graphics restrains, this was arguably the only big update this month, or if you include the mole one of only 2 ‘proper updates’. I’ve stuck by and had faith in Jagex through the past 12 months of meagre update quantities but now not only every month are we down to only 1 or 2 big updates a month, those updates are getting smaller and smaller each time. Surely something has to be happening internally with the number of people working on the game, or is it a managerial issue? But something definitely seems to have changed in the past 12 months and its really disconcerting.

Wow , in which case Im deffinitely not going to waste my points from this event on the warpriest stuff if its so easy to get it that way. I'd far rather keep enjoying the free 60k Divination xp a day I'm currently getting from spending it on huge lamps.

Can anyone advise how rare the warpriest armour drops are from sara and zammy currently?

I agree, but its the fact that we have to guess/ assume these things that annoys me, surely even a small dialogue would have been beneficial!

Is it just me or has there not been any form of proper lore explanation as to why exactly Armadyl and Bandos have chosen to battle each other to the death in this fashion following Sliskes meeting with the Gods. I was expecting an in depth cutscene with some dialogue explaining it and instead all I got was the 2 gods roaring at each other. Why in particular is it these 2 fighting, who instigated it and why have they both decided to build massive towers to do it?

Can anyone please explain how/where the divination aspect works as I havent seen any energy nodes yet at any of the sites. Also what do the things we're constructing ag each site actually do? Apologies if these are silly/ obvious questions

I'm just really hoping that the world event firstly provides a new way of training divination, and secondly that it gives a divination XP rate comparable to that of training it normally. Because frankly I'll do anything for a bit of variation in training it it right now. As for who will win, I assumed it would be an overwhelming majority for Bandos before, but the poll on this has just confirmed that for me. I just cant ever see Bandos vs Armadyl being close to 50:50

Just did the tutorial and I agree it is really good, nice simple and quick, and shows you the basics, though I dont get how they chose only a few skills to introduce and ignored others. The thing thats really confused me is the graphics of Ashdale for a number of reasons. Firstly the graphics and building style seemed completely unlike anything in Runescape, they seemed quite modern as opposed to medievil. Secondly, the layout and size of the town was very unlike anything in Runescape: everything was so spread out with massive buildings, which is completely different to Gilienor where every city is so cramped up with small buildings that are very close together. Thirdly, it's such a massive area, the time to develop all the new graphics for it must have taken months, it seems such a waste to put all that effort on a place we'll never see again, it would have been great it it had been integrated into the game properly. I know putting time into something that will draw in new players is vital. But the effort that must have gone in the area I wish could be put into redeveloping our current cities like Falador and Varrock that look attrocious in comparison to Ashdales graphics.

The non laggy insta open map has to be one of the most long overdue updates ever. The amount of hours over the years I must have spent waiting for that damn thing to open/ missclicking it and waiting for it to open/close. I'm looking forward to trying out the new tutorial, as sure, its yet another tutorial, but the other one clearly wasn't working so if its better at bringing in new players that can only be a good thing.

Really disappointed at how completely inaccessable the barrows update will be for 99% of the player population. I really wanted it to have at least some sort of solo play option. But requiring multiple people and mega expensive gear gear kill means it will be useless for me at least. They really need to stop obsessively trying to apease the likes of Dardan and Woox etc when they are just not representative of the average player. Qbd is still so heavily played as it was difficult but still so accessable. I thought they would have learned from that. This infuriates me even more as its basically the only updste were getting this month.

Ok cool, thanks I see the purpose better now. Awesome idea though. I wonder how much could potentially be raised?!?. Probably the best, most appropriate high scores Jagex will have ever made, looking forward to seeing the results!

Surely no one in their right mind would donate 10m gp for a 1$ donation when a bond currently costs 6.5m gp and gives a 5$ donation. Let me know if im misinterpretting this, but the 10m options seems retarded?
