New Mining Movements

Featured Replies

I was doing a bit of mining when i saw the new emoticon and how awful it looks. I wanted to know your opinions of it-personally, i prefered the old one because it looked a lot more realistic, compared to the new one where he "dances" around and looks like a drunk hitting a rock. I know it's meant to improve the sound timing and stuff like that but

 

 

 

KEEP THE OLD ONE AND GET RID OF THE NEW ONE

New one looks awesome, but it's slightly slower to get ores because of it :|.

Well if you were forced to work in a coal mine all day wouldn't you turn to alcohol for comfort and emotional support?

I dont really mine much but if it slows it down

 

 

 

Good because skills are too eazy many people have 99 thats why there making them harder

 

 

 

Ex. fletching made stringing the bows slower

 

 

 

The emotion makes it look more realistic because wow you hitting a rock about what 3 times get you 1 ore!!!

If you do things right people won't be sure you've done anything at all.

if anything it looks more realistic.really the animation before you hammered out ores with oe hand sometimes and with little effort.Now it looks liek hes really hammering away at that rock till it gets the ore and i dont see no diiferance with power mining times.

Not really, I mined some coal to try out the animation and I only had to "1-hit" one of rocks to get some coal. IMO it's still the same.

No longer playing Runescape, I caught the WoW bug.

I thought it was slightly slower, but i hate mining so i wont be seeing the emote much :XD:

Thanks Yaff2 for the sig^,^

It looks more realistic, but makes powermining slower.

perfect grammar is one thing, typing like a drugged monkey and enjoying it is another

AMEN!

Maybe it was a double update by jagex?

 

 

 

1. Improve the look of mining, who wouldn't like it?

 

2. Stop a large section of powermining, making people have to mine regular ores alot more, in turn brining many more ores into the market? The ore market is probably the smallest raw material market in rs, this could greatly increase how many people go into it.

Big thanks to Stevepole for the signature!^

The new way we mine is more realistic, you try and repeatedly mine like we used to.

it is only slower if you mine iron or clay any other ores its the same speed.

What if Jagex took off all Runescape Videos from YouTube and said "LIVE WITH IT, KID." You would be pissed too don't lie! He's pissed of the new mining update and so am I.

I've mined various ore up to mithril and haven't noticed a change in speed, AT ALL.

Not always, sometime , like with iron, he puts the pickaxe against the rock, pulls it, and sometimes you then get a rock. If not it looks awesome how you mine. :D

This forum is about discussions not about statements, move on to the games forums. :lol: Don't call me a wannabe mod, I'm just annoyed when people do that. -.-

 

 

 

I don't think the emote makes mining slower, but I don't see why Jagex has to have the perfect timing on some of the skill emotes >.<. I mean I didn't really care beforehand. :?

People, Look at the emote, it looks like he is doing a real effort on that mining, like the thing is heavy, it only looks weird because the general graphics and movements of the character are so steady.

 

 

 

I hope the creators would be inspired by this to improve generally our character player sooner.

I do much much prefer the old one... The new one just seems weird but I hardly mine any way so it doesn't really affect me.

Good because skills are too eazy many people have 99 thats why there making them harder

You can't compare a 1-2 second effect with a month-long effect. Jagex makes a smal 'tweak' and sonone just HAS to complain. Can't you small-update whiners just live with it though?

I agree the new mining thing is unrealestic it aint funny.

 

 

 

My dads a coal miner and when they pull out those picks and shovels they are swinging not pecking at those rocks like little birds but now it's mostly machines.

 

 

 

We it's ugly like the DFH(d full helm) and it's alittle slower.

I totally agree with Pasta.

 

 

 

It's practically the same amount of time to get a ore. It's more realistic. You can't pick up a 40+ pound pickaxe like a toothpick over, and over, and over again.

S'Okay I guess. It definitly looks more realistic. But it is slower. And that fails. :shame:

Haven't seen it, going to go try it right now 8-)

+1. It's for the common good, not for a bunch of effeminate 10 year olds who can't take it when their widdle mining emote is changed.
