22-Jul-2013 - RuneScape 3!
Didn't want to quote the whole large list so took a snip of the only one I somewhat disagree with. Personally I use the guest clan chat quite a bit. I even typically talk more in a guest clan chat then I do in my own clan's chat. But it is completely fair that not everyone does that and it goes along with the theme of your list: Let us have more customization. You should be able to close the chat menus that you don't use, specifically for me it would be the emotes. This would make good use of the hubs a tad more, where you could reopen the menus from the hubs if you ever need them again. A huge item, for me, I'd like to add to your list is more action bars. Runescape had made a stance they want to go the way of other MMOs with abilities and I'm perfectly fine with that. But lets catch up to them. Here is a screenshot of my current interface from Runescape and below is an interface from SWTOR (Star Wars: The Old Republic), both of which I actively play. Now that screenshot from SWTOR is almost a year old now and is on a smaller resolution than Runescape (think Swtor one is 1280x720 and my Runescape one is 1600x900), but what I am specifically getting at is the amount of action bars. We don't have a need for quite that many here (yet) but I'd love to have 2-3 more action bars I could use if I choose (and close for those that don't want them). Personally I'd love to place another action bar on the top of my screen by the menu hub bar and it would contain my overload, prayer renewal, antifire, slayer ring (right click, check task), teleport, etc. I could make good use of it. Another example would be Dagannoth Kings where you are best suited to tribrid, I hate the arrows of different action bars now. I find them super easy to misclick and I don't care for the shift-X to get to another one. Either way, I just want an ability to hide them if I so wish.

Anyway, so instead of saying FAK DIS JOGEX U SUK ADFGADFGASDFG I made a list. Read my list Respect my list Recommend additions to my list Recommend modifications to my list rrrrr -Ability to customize the interfaces background. This is the blue-green background that shows up when you turn opacity on. -Ability to get rid of the unused social tabs. Mainly the guest clan and emotes tab -Not really NIS, but the ability to filter what the game notices tab shows. I don't want to see the turmoil messages, or the fact that I drink a prayer potion, but I want to see server wide drops, friend drops, and friend level up notices -Ability to go into "chat mode".. Where alphanumeric keys don't activate any binds, and where the chat window is *always* selected. I dont' want to have to [Press Enter to chat] if I'm skilling and don't want to open anything with a hotkey. Better yet, let this toggle be optional, *and* tied to minimizing the action bar! -Ability to move the quick-inventory icons to the front or end of the action bar -Ability to toggle where the action bar pops out from the combat bar. Right now it ALWAYS comes up underneith or to the left of the combat bar. Allow us to have it appear ABOVE it or to the right of it, for people who have the interface on the bottom of the screen or the left of the screen. Because when you expand the action bar and remove it, the combat bar remains where it is.. I don't want to have to move it EVERY time I'm finished with combat because it takes up a nice portion of my screen, and I don't want to ALWAYS have it displayed, too! -Allow us to put buttons/tabs around all of the boarders. So I can have one main window with eight buttons; four on the top, four on the bottom. Now, if I did that and the panel wasn't wide enough, I'd have to scroll... -Let us separate the constitution/defense ability menus and the magic abilities/spell menues. Having sub tabs under your tabs is bad design. -OH SWEET HEAVENS LET US SPLIT PRIVATE CHAT LIKE IT USED TO BE. IT DOESN'T NEED ITS OWN TAB!!!! -Allow the bank/GE ui to be split into "main area" and "sub area". The main area would be the... main are of the bank and GE. The sub area would be where the inventory/info screen is. Also let us disable that if we so wish. I can't imagine anyone going to the bank doesn't have their inventory in mind. We don't *need* another inventory for the bank if that is what we are using it for. It would add much more fluidity to using the bank. -Allow us to put the game dialogue INTO the chat box, with scaling. To me it seems unpolished when you have a popup with dialogue on top of everything. Making it a part of the chat box (optionally, like everything else!) would look a lot better -Put the player gear button back into the bank. Now, clicking that opens up ANOTHER menu, while also opening up ANOTHER inventory screen. So if I'm in the bank, I have two inventories; my main one, which is locked, and the bank one. If I click the gear button in the tab, I now have three. The main, locked one. The bank one, and the one that came up. Utterly confusing especially because the gear inventory is on the LEFT and the bank inventory is on the RIGHT. Buttons within menus should change the menu. Not open another one.

Where is the prayer menu?

I tried to nex a bit last night. The darkness covers 1/3 of the screen It is damn near impossible to see what overhead she is using with that popup status bar It is bloody stupid. The old interface was fine and just needed some tweaks. but instead of fixing what that had and inproving on something that worked, they though that pushing something out that wasnt as good and broke was better?

Barrows is a high level boss? Barrows are bosses? Back in my day, barrows was considered a minigame! One where you DIED and you didn't cry because it is going to take you 25 minutes to get back there!! Unless you were pro and had anchents and could tele there and cut it to five minutes!

Yes but all you do is wear the armour that gives you 900 def vs the style the creature attacks with, if defence matters. Else you wear power armour and soulsplit. Either way, hybrid armour comes up as significantly sub par. Against something that uses multiple attack styles that do a lot of damage, I disagree. Having some hybrid armor (read: gloves and boots) is better than having just power gloves/boots on in that you take significiantly less damage. For something that you can soul split, there really wouldn't be any need for defense, which is why power armor is better

The fact that hybrid armor provides EQUAL defense to all classes is what makes it better. Yes, it provides lower defense in general, but having 300 defense against everything is better than having 900 def vs one style and 0 in the other two, imho.

I'm not bashing it. This is T75 hybrid armor, and costs several hours to get. It is the best hybrid armor in the game. The second best hybrid armor would be barrows gloves (t70), Akrisae's (t70), and obsidian (T60).. Obsidian only for the boots, though. for one who valued their time above all, it would be worth grinding for this new stuff in the order of boots, gloves, then plate/legs/helm. I know that I'm just going to go for the boots and gloves in that order. Depending how much I like it, maybe the rest, too

Helm isn't out yet. But for glove and boots a few hours, like maybe 2-3 at the battlefield. Also, the stats on the body/leg out class Akrisae's even though it has a prayer bonus. I was told prayer bonus is nice but doesn't mean as much in EoC. The damage reduction; however, sounds very nice. Well, both are hybrid armor, T70 vs T75. Five levels isn't enough justification to make me grind for a few more hours when I can get something slightly less stat wise for money which costs even less time wise to make

How long does it generally take to get the helm/gloves/boots? T75 would make it the highest tier hybrid armor, better than the barrows gloves... And a pretty decent hybrid boots, as the highest tier boots are obsidian ones.. Well pretty much the whole set is the highest tier hybrid gear in the game. Though I don't think I'd grind for the body/legs/htlm as there are the barrows ones and they are dirt cheap with prayer to boot

YES! THANK GOD! I'm glad they are addressing smaller screen sizes.. Because I hope that by doing that, they change fixed to something that was the same size as it was before, minus those stupid buttons at the top

I kind of regret buying 3 month membership last month.... Because now I can't even play the game. wasted money. le sigh

Are the T75 hybrid armors worth getting?

22-Jul-2013 - RuneScape 3!
Uh... Playing on virtual machines was possible before too. I wouldn't worry about getting banned. I should have rephrased. Virtualbox has a nice scale mode, which, more or less, lets you play on a larger screen at a lower resolution while keeping the aspect ratio. THIS feature wasn't possible before, because it just made the game client white or black. But now it seems to work. And I'm going to be playing at 1024x768 or something around that, while making it bigger on my screen. So I can see.

22-Jul-2013 - RuneScape 3!
Well I figured out how to play the game at a higher DPI!! Play it in a virtual machine. Which works now, with the new client. Now watch as I get banned for botting by playing on a virtualized system. YAY

I've said that the reason that I play in fixed is because I can not see the text in the game; it is too small. Much smaller than 12pt font by far. I zoom in 200%. And I was able to zoom in a nice 200% on the old fixed and see the WHOLE game window. It was, more or less, full screen. But now, they not only made the fixed screen size slightly bigger (before there were useless buttons at the top to open the site/forums), but the NIS leaves a lot of wasted space so much that even in the same amount of space, you SEE less of the game. However it is rectified in the HTML5 beta, but I can't play that, as it likes to take random controller input to move the character.. And I use the left stick on my controller to move the mouse for ergonomical reasons.

Yay! Nothing to address the lack of usability for fixed screen!!! Best update ever!

I sent out my first 10 chi mission last night.. Won't be able to check it until tonight :'( On the plus side, with this RS3 stuff, we can talk while in the voyage menu. On the other side, I can't actually see what I am typing :-(

Is there any way to disable controller input moving your character one square north/south? I use a 360 controller to move the mouse to help with CTS and it is impossible if the game decides to move me one square at random based on the left stick input..

I have poor eyesight, so I zoom in 200% and play in fixed screen. Otherwise I can't see anything. Jagex destroyed the usability for me. I can't see as much as I saw before. MAYBE if they made the action bar pop up on top of the stats bar, that would work. Otherwise, if I minimize the action bar... the stats bar is still there. The tabs above the chat box need to be allowed to be hidden or put underneath the chat bar Buttons on an interface should be allowed to be put on the BOTTOM so you don't need to scroll between things you need Though playing in a larger screen size is fantastic, and the interface for that is great, fixed has been killed so much as to make it unplayable for me. Also, this is the exact dpi that I play with. Works well with old school, too, as that is the same size as fixed screen used to be.

After I get done with the BoL cutscene I'm going to go to my port bank, set up a playlsit of my favorite tunes, and listen to them while trying to build an interface that works

I'm not going to be on for at least 7 more hours. Can't wait to see how much of a crash and burn the fixed client is.
