Makoto_the_Phoenix Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 nope :) skillcapes are p2p, thats that ;) and if u want to have a skillcape @ f2p, become member for 1 month, buy one and wear it for the rest of your life :) We members honestly do have a lot going on for ourselves, not to mention weekly updates, forum access and other things. Why shouldn't freeplay be able to get a skill cape that they earned hands down on freeplay? (No, I don't just pay members for skill capes. That'd be a waste of money.)

Yeah, we don't pay just for skill capes. We pay for all the members stuff. Thephat's idea wouldn't work, if you stop being a member all of your members stuff gets put into your bank. Skill capes aren't the reason most people become a member, but they are the reason dedicated people who could wear a skill cape join members.

meb Posted April 20, 2007 Share Posted April 20, 2007 Only a very small minority of F2P players have 99 skills, so I don't think Jagex should give F2P capes. Besides, they don't pay. Retired 2146 overall - 136 combat - 6 skillcapes Plus I think the whole teenage girl thing will end soon (hopefully), because my girlfriend is absolutely in love with him(she is 18), and im beginning to feel threatened by his [Justin Bieber] dashing looks.

NJE03 Posted April 20, 2007 Share Posted April 20, 2007 As for how it could work, I posted this in the sticky in rants forum awhile back: What if there was a portal that took you to the skill master to buy the cape.

RpgGamer Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 absolutly yes. if someone who is f2p gets a skill to 99, they deserve it way more than a member with 99 in that skill. (im going to get quoted on that for sure) like the thread said, some1 who gets 99 wc off nothing but willows spent alot more time playing then a member. being amember lets you lvl up a lot faster then being a freeworlder. i like the whole portal idea, but it could lead to some issues regarding members worlds.

llcoolguy972 Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 Why shouldn't they? Some of the work that they do on freeplay to level up those skills is exponentially harder than the work anyone on members would ever have to do. If they did make it freeplay, you wouldn't hear me complain about it one bit. I completely agree. There isn't one f2p skill that isn't easier to level up in members. And I seriously doubt that anyone is paying membership just for the capes, so I don't think it'd ruffle too many feathers. Also, instead of having the portals to the master, I think they should just move the masters to f2p areas, or just make the capes available from the tutors.

Giordano Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 What Jagex should of done is make the Tutors the Masters, and not add the Stats it has. Along with that it shouldn't even cost 99k at all... But seeing Jagex didn't do it like that, it doesn't seem to be possible to make it F2P the way it currently is.

Kill_Life Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 I think they should get the Capes, just not the trimmed version. Is a bit to powerfull in f2p (the prayer bonus) IMO.

Potter_Pkr Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 Very good question but hard to decide. You should also have to put into consideration the stat bonuses the skill cape offers. I'm not sure Jagex would want to offer F2ps potentially the best stat bonus capes in game :lol: Retired 8th October 2007 | 99 Fishing | 99 Cooking | Owner of a Red Mask and 2 Santa Hats | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kill_Life Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 Give f2p players the capes with a (f) behind it. No trimmed versions, and the capes give 3 defense bonus and no prayer bonus. Sounds fair to me?

Owned_Nex Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 No. True they got a 99 skill, but they are f2p. Members are PAYING for a reason. F2Pers arn't suppos to be getting all the benificts of members, even if it is only a small cape. Dungeoneering isn't a skill. I'm faster than bots at Sorceress Garden. PM me if you want to chat.

Dark_Lord552 Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 don't be selfish so what you are paying 5 dollars a month? a 99 in f2p is still a 99 its even a better 99 than p2p 99 Proud member of the Crimson Raiders1000 total lvl achieved on 4-17-07 -F2P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sohkmj1 Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 the only flaw with this is that there is a large macro problem in f2p. a majority of those capes would go to robots that existed for less than a month. LOl! macroers just play the game for the cash, think about it, what would they need skillcapes for? i agree, we need skill capes! There are people who actually pay $5 for a skillcape! They log into members, get the cape, and then cancel members. sp yes, we should get skillcapes on f2p. Don't whine about you want content, pay for it. There are people who can't get membership due to other reasons you know, i have a major exam this year,(singapore, its psle, shush!) so no members. i do long to be a member though :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
