Who have YOU lost due to the recent updates?

Monky, the problem with that is that no matter how much tweaking is done, my mates arent coming back to the game, and a lot of other people arent either. The influx of new players is just going to annoy the older players like us as well. Can u imagine all the new players asking where this is, where that is, whats that glow thing (high lvl alch)?

 

 

 

And these new players can't take the place of some of the mates others have lost. They just can't.

 

 

 

What I said was meant as how Jagex sees it, they do not honestly care about your friends if there will be new players to replace them.

Well, I didn't expect to see anyone online since I haven't played for over a year, but the only couple left seem to have lost all interest since this update, and I can't see that my old Pker friend will play anymore.

 

 

 

I also don't really see much point playing after my months members runs out, no friends on, nobody to talk to at training spots (because they are all empty), little reason to try and raise stats. Can't see that I'll even be able to afford to train or buy anything soon, rune running used to pay for all my items and materials needed to raise my stats.

 

 

 

You used to at least be able to have some strange conversations while fishing/woodcutting, and there was always something to talk about while training on Shadow Warriors. Now the odd few people I see training are all mute.

I lost 2 DDS in the Bounty Hunter arena, and a few people on my friends list have said they will be taking a break/quitting RS pending the severity of effects the trade restrictions will have.

 

 

 

I have found that clan wars and Bounty Hunter (F2P) are a ton of fun provided you have a group of mates keen to go explore. In fact, I would dare to say I will Bounty Hunt more often now than I would have pked before for the following reasons:

 

 

 

1)It is easy to quit BH, bank carry on with skilling

 

2)You can bank immediately after getting a kill

 

3)You meet many more teams more often in BH than you would have stalking GDZ.

 

4)ItÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢s great to get a group of pures to scatter!

 

5)Reasonably quick to get to, and no need to worry about hopping every couple of minutes looking for teams.

 

 

 

Bad things about BH:

 

 

 

1)No 1v1 area to truly hunt your target, or truly be a rogue.

 

2)Not enough in the arena to hug

 

3)Far to many cave openings for people to escape through.

 

4)When you are attacking someone who goes through a cave hole, you run towards the other side of the arena wasting run!

 

5)You should spawn close to others on your mates list ÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Ãâ it is a large area and it can take a while to find everyone.

 

 

 

Clan Wars is a blast in both P2P and F2P ÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Ãâ and I will play it for a while yet.

 

 

 

Give me a 1v1 area though, and voila ÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Ãâ pures are again happy :)

 

 

 

Trade restrictions will affect me a little bit, especially the ability to award prizes, give gifts etc ÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Ãâ but the GE is fine for me to buy/sell whatever I want.

I have lost one that I know of and he will be missed, we met in the first clan i was ever in. And maybe theres a second friend aswell that's going to quit... i just don't know at this early stage. I would say most people are waiting to see what the next several weeks bring upon us. Most people will be watching the RS website just too make sure they don't quit too soon.

 

 

 

And for people that *quit* and say dropped Millions in the party room to find in a few weeks all has been restored with only a tad few changes to what's actaully there now but wich is of benefit to the Pk'ers they will be so annoyed! It will be there own faulty anyway. Let's just all sit back and wait.

I've noticed that with much of this, many of you have noticed your friends who have quit were pures or pkers, and havent yet noticed the loss of people who would donate stuff to other people, or the merchants who now literally cannot make any money more then 3k at a time.

I've lost the need to stay out of the wilderness. Best update ever.

 

I absolutely LOVE seeing players with "pk'er", or "noobkiller" in their name, walking up to them in the wildy, and giving them the rasbperry.

 

Nobody I know has quit. Then again nobody on my friends list was an idiot pkiller.

Lucky me, nobody on my friends list chose to prove their "superior intelligence" by skilling nonstop. Call me funny, but if something's designed for idiots, it's the skilling system that bots could manipulate in the first place.

 

 

 

I've seen thousands of woodcutting macros. When was the last time you saw a pking macro?

 

 

 

Case closed, idiot. <.<

Fair enough. Still. No more worrying about losing your stuff just because you are a level 70-something, and some kid who sits on RS 10 hrs a day decides he wants your stuff when you go on a treasure trail.

 

 

 

But you're absolutely right. Case closed. Player killing is no more, and it's about time. \'

You're right, instead you will have a level 126 monster hitting high 20's and 30's on you while ice barraging and teleblocking at the same time, wich large range, the ability to open doors and do agility courses.

 

Have you seen any pker so buffed up like this? Have fun doing your trial, untill you come across one of these guys.

Well, there's only ONE level 126 monster, rather than several player-killers in the multi combat zones.

 

Plus, all I have to do is put on my protect from range or mage prayer and easily run away or fight.

 

And, if I do happen to die, at least it's to a part of the game, and not some 12 year old.

 

I'm not saying it's a perfect fix, but it's worlds better than it was.

 

 

 

Best of all, the random won't taunt me, or use childish words like noob, choob or froob.

Maybe they can't taunt you, but they heal, hunt in packs, can short range teleport, can poison you, freeze you, entangle you, and can heal poison. Plus they spawn way to often and in low level wilderness.
If the CORPORAL beast is this hard, imagine how hard a GENERAL or COLONEL beast would be. a corporal is not even an admirable rank in armies that use that ranking system.

 

Yeah, it is a pking minigame, so any arguments anybody makes will probably be biased.

The best way this will end :Everybody just says,"I'm not arguing with you anymore, goodbye."

The worst way this will end: I don't really know, psychological warfare? Worldwide thermonuclear war? Pie eating contest?

Just logged in for quite possibly the last time. Talked to 6 people, 5 are quitting, and about 10 others that almost always were online at this were offline the entire time I stayed ingame. Out of those 10, I know for sure that a couple of them have quit too, from talking to people that know them.

 

 

 

Ah well. There's better stuff out there, anyways.

 

 

 

Oh, and to dharokslayer, I've done over 200 clues, and I've never been pked once. I just guess I'm too cool for those 12 year olds, eh?

Strangely enough, I've seen the opposite effect. I've added 4 people to my friends list, and not one person I know is considering quitting. Right now, all the members servers are PACKED, and there's lots of good people roaming the wilderness for the first time. I've gotten over 200 green dragonhides in the past few days, and not had to give one up to some lowly pkiller. I can't wait to do some nature runeing now.

 

I don't know what some of you are talking about with the new monsters. I've yet to even come close to getting killed. they are a pain to fight, but escaping is easy.

 

 

 

Oh well...a hearty bye-bye to those who only played runescape to prey on people who don't spend 12 hrs a day looking to steal from low level members.

 

 

 

You will be dearly missed.

 

 

 

N-N-N-NOT!!!! :^o
