Announced updates that were never released?

[shadowbot]

Browsing through old behind the scenes and announcements from jagex there are quite a few things that were supposed to be released and are mysteriously absent, or postponed. Which ones do you know of.

 

 

 

Example:

 

 

 

Wilderness tag game. Was announced in behind the scenes, and never release and we havent heard or seen anything about it since. This thread is not to speculate why or how, just to try and get an idea of how many times this has happened.

"PLEASE NOTE:

 

We have seperated Farming from Player-Owned Houses in order to bring it to you sooner. Player Owned Houses are still being worked on along with the Carpentry skill for release towards the end of this year - Honestly! :-)"

 

 

 

So POH and farming were supposed to go hand in hand. We were mostly likely going to plant things right in our yards. Never really panned out.

-A large 'frozen lands' area including penguins, mammoths, polar bears and more.

 

-Summoning spells - summon skeletons, demons, etc...!

 

-More pets and followers with different properties and abilities.

 

-Randomly generated scenarios, where a new adventure is generated for you and your friends each time you go on it. Form an adventuring party and go on your own personal quest.

the only one i can think of right now is quite a recent one:

 

 

 

Other updates this month include a few more of our small improvement projects. YouÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢ll be seeing better examine descriptions on some items (which should help establish where they come from) and also some graphical changes, making potentially dangerous game areas LOOK more dangerous.

 

 

 

i dont remember them adding the new examines.. unless they did but it slipped under the radar with gwd etc.

Yeah thats true I dont know of any that were changed. I also still see a ton of useless examines that are just there to be funny. When you really dont know what an item does, the examines certainly dont help now. Nor did they ever, which is kind of stupid.
