Yohbilleh Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 People are grinding more and more on one skill because of the achievement capes, and pretty soon over 50000+ people will have 99 cooking or fletching. In a few years, half of the hiscores will just be in 99 and just to get in the top 1million would be about level 75. What will jagex do about this?

22woger22 Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 Jagex will increase the capacity of the hiscore list. Previously, 2 or so years ago, the hiscore only showed the top 500,000 in a skill, until it got updated to 1m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jemathonical Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 So you reckon that 500,000 people will have 99 in a couple of years. I don't reckon it will be that much. Maybe 100-200K. I don't think Jagex should do anything about this, because it is the hi scores and it should be an achievement to get into them. ^Sir Jem 05-The Bunny Drinking Blog?^ Click it!

The Observer Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 This doesn't sound good for my 99 cooking. :? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bauke Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 I doubt they will do anything about it. At this point it's very easy to enter the highscores with pretty much every skill. It'd be nice if it was a little harder. Twitter ||| Google+ ||| Facebook ||| LinkedIn ||| My very interesting weblog about science Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evil_Sabre Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 i think they just need to make cooking, fletching and fire making harder.....i mean people can get 99 cooking in under a month and lose very little money if any, thats ridiculous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freesia Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 They should reduce it down to 500k again. It is the highscores after all, not some list that any Tom, [bleep] and Harry could be in with just a lowly 30 rc. :wall: Strangely with WotLK so near, I wished I could delay it a bit to push through that last TBC content in MH/BT :'(.

Omali Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 Did anyone else notice that most of the skills on the high scores that once went all the way to 1,000,000 now stop at around 997,000? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobbington Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 There is not much that can be done.... they may increase the hiughscores so more pople can come in again (when I started it was the top 250k players), thye will also introduce new skills which should slow it down.

That doesn't really seem to be a lot. I'm guessing it was mainly members autoers because they seem to be nonexistant right now while f2p autoers are still just as plenty as ever. Who knows, maybe Jagex has made it harder for them to pay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MPM Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 The high scores use to show only the top 100000, and it's been bumped up twice to the million that it is now. If it comes to it, they will do it again. ~M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginger_Warrior Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 Maybe I'm missing the point, but why would it matter if the hiscores became filled with 99s? I can't see the problem... :? | Favourite Game Music | Last.fm | HYT Friend Chat Rules | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cotamatias Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 Either extend the high score list, or nothing... Or randomly ban a bunch of high-leveled accounts just to clear the high score list. :twisted: Oh snap, that would suck so much. I could not bear to be banned from RS. OT: I think they will extend it to 2Mil, or hopefully keep it. As it was already said, it should be hard to get onto the highscores list. Qizx2- ArchmagePersonnumber100- Warlock for life.Would you?

Nenga Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 Jagex will seperate the high scores list into two. A low level list and a high level list. When you reach a certain point of exp (about lvl 80), your skill will be trasfered from one list to the other. Ponies! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBC3 Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 im not even sure if they will extend the hiscores again, 1million seems like a good number and theres also a lunar spell called stat spy, i firmly believe that you have to earn the right to look at someones stats incase they want it private and if it was ever impressive they would have it above lvl 75 to be on the hiscores. 4000000657th to 99 cookin555555406th to 99 flethcin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sbrideau Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 Quite an interesting discussion here, What I'd like is if it was harder to reach the highscores, like it is comming in some skills like cooking or fletching. You guys say it's for the skillcapes that they do it, so do they care about the highscores you thing? That is my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
