January 3, 200818 yr I haven't seen many successful free online MMORPG's like Runescape in my time, though the way it's going now, and the fact that Jagex might be interested in focusing on a different game, I'd give it 6 years.

January 3, 200818 yr Until people get bored of it and/or Jagex moves its focus to another game. The literalist strikes again! Expecting a good life because you're a good person is like expecting a bull not to charge because you're a vegetarian.
January 3, 200818 yr Oreo, love the quote in your sig. *Points to avatar* I give it about 5 more years, give or take 1. Feel free to HYT me in-game =)~~3,483rd to 99 Thieving, Feb 22, 2008~~"There's never enough time to do all the nothing you want." - Calvin (& Hobbes)
January 3, 200818 yr until jagex runs out of business. maybe 3 years. UNTIL YOU RUN OUT OF BUSINESS! [Admin Edit: Attempting to publicly humiliate a user in your signature is inappropriate] Quit Runescape... Dec 2001 - Jan 2008 on and off... mostly off.
January 3, 200818 yr until jagex runs out of business. maybe 3 years. UNTIL YOU RUN OUT OF BUSINESS! [hide= =D> ][/hide] OT: 5 years at most.
January 7, 200818 yr Long enough for me to move on. This will be around 6 years. Then Mechscape, hopeflly. Goals achieved: lvl 99 Cooking, Fishing and Fletching.Surrey CC and Liverpool FC fan for life!
January 7, 200818 yr I give it 2 more years at the current rate. I think some people are going to get bored with it. Seriously, they spend too much time trying to get the lower level's attention and babysitting us.
January 7, 200818 yr I recall Jagex said they will focus at least 5 more years on Runescape like abyssal_whip said. After that, no-one knows... The Ultimate Green Dragon GuideDon't hate me, just let me ride.Lord, just give me life.
June 16, 200818 yr As long as jagex has paying members I can see Runescape still running on at least a few servers with no more updates in 10+ years. Why would a multi million dollar company go away in 5 years? ]
June 17, 200818 yr As long as jagex has paying members I can see Runescape still running on at least a few servers with no more updates in 10+ years. Why would a multi million dollar company go away in 5 years? I just hope you're right :pray: And the best is: Your post actually makes sense!
June 17, 200818 yr Yup, I remember the 5 year thing myself, at that point it would either be phased out, replaced by Mechscape, or upgraded to RS3, possibly as a console or download game (Yes, I'm sure someone will quote with a long argument about how their specialty is java etc. etc. etc., but I read an article about Jagex considering Runescape a a console game (They decided against it, but whos to say they might try it 5 years from now, with who-knows-how-different gameplay and graphics) A basic rule of thumb: as long as they are making money off it, it will stay around. Drops: 1x Draconic Visage, 56x Abyssal Whip, 5x Demon Head, D Drops: 37, Barrows Drops: 43, DK Drops: 29GWD drops: 14,000x Bars, 1x Armadyl Hilt, 2x Armadyl Skirt, 4x Sara Sword, 1x Saradomin Hilt, 8x Bandos Hilt, 8x Bandos Platebody, 9x Bandos Tassets, 4x Bandos Boots, 43x Godsword Shard, 82x Dragon BootsDry streak records: Saradomin 412 kills Bandos 988 kills Spirit Mages 633 kills - Slayer Sucks
June 17, 200818 yr Hopefully until I die :pray: :lol: I resemble that remark!Achieved quest cape for first time on: 4-2-09 WOOHOO! Beat Nomad on 6-24-10 WOOHOO!.
June 17, 200818 yr well since they're advertising FunOrb so much, i'd say: 10-12 years. they won't give up runescape that easily. =D
June 21, 200818 yr Well since gamming can be an addiction, never. People will always be playing rs hopefully :) Does it really matter whether I was right? #-oThis is Tipit. There is nothing more important than being right. Common sense is nothing more than a deposit of prejudices laid down in the mind before you reach eighteen.
June 22, 200818 yr When it stops making them money be here for a few years yet whether it in its current format who knows
June 22, 200818 yr Till March 2009 When NextScape comes out I am Teh_King[My dA][My Last.FM][My Twitter]
