October 1, 200718 yr 1 October 2007 - Development Diary: Content Team Today, we've released the fourth Development Diary. This diary is revisiting the work of the RuneScape Content team in more detail, but not necessarily in the way you might have been expecting... This diary takes a look behind some of the tough decisions we have to make when developing RuneScape, particularly when it comes to improving old content. The focus is very much on the Shop Improvement and tackles the difficulties we have in striking the balance between making the game better, ironing out problems AND keeping players happy. We hope you enjoy learning more about the inner-workings of Jagex and RuneScape. To read the new Development Diary, click here. [hide=SPOILER][/hide] 1 October 2007 - King Black Dragon Wallpaper A few weeks ago we asked you to vote in a Guaranteed Content poll for the next wallpaper to be created by our artists. Over one hundred thousand of you cast your votes, and it was a pretty close call! "The Taming of Jad" came a close second, but a certain Black Dragon, proving he's still the King, came out on top. 38% of you voted for "Triple Trouble" - three warriors facing off against the mighty King Black Dragon. We're very pleased to announce the wallpaper has been created; fangs sharpened to perfection and eyes glistening evilly. Head on over to the Downloads section to check out this fantastic piece of artwork. While you're there, why not have a browse of the rest of the wallpapers? We would like to thank all of you that voted. Those of you who do vote in our polls are making a definite difference to the game and what we produce for it. The more 'fun' polls are obviously there for you to enjoy, but all other polls really help us to understand what you want from RuneScape. Look out for more great wallpapers in the Downloads section in future; your ideas and the poll results have given us plenty of inspiration. Not bad, eh Discuss! dedicate your idle computer power to a scientific project.
October 1, 200718 yr What is that in the KBD's mouth..? Looks like a huge guantlet or something.. :-s An unlimited stock of Vials in Ardougne would be great! :
October 1, 200718 yr Author It's the warrior's dragonfire shield! Someone's about to lose all but his three most valuable items :lol: -Note, is he wearing dragon platebody? dedicate your idle computer power to a scientific project.
October 1, 200718 yr I think its for putting your sword (looks like d scimmy) in, so you leggs won't get injured :? Master of Firemaking since 10-11-2007 Yes, I QUIT! =] Master of Woodcutting since Christmas 2007Completed all quests - Completed all achievement diaries.
October 1, 200718 yr Awesome wallpaper...and yes, looks like dragon platebody... I also like the shop thingy..collecting things will be much easier... Edit: my fault, i mean collecting when i need a bunch off pots or something, not to start a collection... ~ColossuS~ - I'm not proud of everything I've done, but I have no regrets
October 1, 200718 yr I also like the shop thingy..collecting things will be much easier... You mean there is no longer any challenge in collecting hammers or tinderboxes, bad for those who collected them before this update, its so easy now :( Master of Firemaking since 10-11-2007 Yes, I QUIT! =] Master of Woodcutting since Christmas 2007Completed all quests - Completed all achievement diaries.
October 1, 200718 yr Awesome wallpaper...and yes, looks like dragon platebody... I also like the shop thingy..collecting things will be much easier... ~ColossuS~ What's the point of a collection if it can be easily acquired? OT: I like the new shops idea, it'll help F2P general shops, which are totally full most of the time, with new item spots (especially Varrock). It'll stop macroers and it'll make shops as what they're intended to be. Lovely! When everything's been said and done, more has been said than done.All skills 80+
October 1, 200718 yr I dont mean collecting for a collection, but for when i need a bunch of buckets or pots or something.. ~ColossuS~ - I'm not proud of everything I've done, but I have no regrets
October 1, 200718 yr Yeah I think that has to be a dragon plate, and the tabs on shop, very similar to the tab banking idea maybe that's on it was =P~ It sure looks like a D Long to me not a scimmy.. - Twitter | RuneScape FB Group | My PC
October 1, 200718 yr Wall paper actually looks pretty sweet - If only game graphics were that good looking :pray: http://img215.imageshack.us/img215/975/70961xn8.jpg[/img]Playing WoW
October 1, 200718 yr It's not a dragon plate, look carefully at the body and you can see the rings for the chainmail. I won't have to stand around anymore waiting for items to appear in the new shops. :) No longer playing Runescape, I caught the WoW bug.
October 1, 200718 yr -Note, is he wearing dragon platebody? i thought so too =P Siggy By...me! ^^ If you've got any tips on sig making, photoshop in general, or a recommendation on a good DSLR to get me started, pm me =]
October 1, 200718 yr The cape of legends, it gets glorified again! :o "300 programmers make their futile but glorious last stand against 1000000 angry players in The battle of Misthalin. They fight for honor, glory and new content sacrificing themselves so that their game may live on. This is Madness! This Is JAGEEEX!"
October 1, 200718 yr Author The cape of legends, it gets glorified again! :o But of course. It is the most wonderful cape in the game. Ok, next question- Is that a magic longbow? :P dedicate your idle computer power to a scientific project.

October 1, 200718 yr It's not a dragon plate, look carefully at the body and you can see the rings for the chainmail. I won't have to stand around anymore waiting for items to appear in the new shops. :) The Dragon Chain has nothing on its arms this covers the arms fully :-k Its like the Dragon Chain/Plate Body.. It does have chain mail but also plate on the arms :-s Confused.. - Twitter | RuneScape FB Group | My PC

I thought you meant that question as in; 'OMG IT@S A MAGIC LONGBOW' failing to realise they're already out, seeing as the posts above you were speculating about a dragon platebody. goodnight : .
