Jagex to Lower the Highscore Rank Limit?

Featured Replies

I definitely agree it should show ALL levels and ranks, even those at level 1 with no XP. As previously mentioned, all it does is mess up dynamic signatures and the like. They probably limit it at 1 million since an SQL query to retrieve 130 million records takes a lot more time than one to retrieve 1 million...

 

 

 

If not make highscores unlimited they should at least make a lookup feature OR make that hiscore_lite.ws page show everything, excluding ranks under 1m or 2m or whatever.

  • Nothing is safe from the jaws of the decompiler.

the highscores r ruined anyways thanks to the autoers. well at least in woodcutting. some skills r ok tho. i think they should lower it. i mean comon. 68str. damn these pures. ooops :oops: im one of them. 8-)

I remember when they moved it back to 1m. That still seems a little too high in my opinion.

 

If they move it back i can only foresee ranting, it just wouldn't be the high score.

Anyone at Manchester University PM me

I was just on the highscores looking at this and i refreshed and then it said "top million."

 

 

 

JUST fixed it!

highscores r totally pointless

 

 

 

i think they should make a player stats section where u can see other player's stats

 

 

 

its gonna be so better for the calcs on sites like tip.it

Woot! Got total lvl 900 in f2p!

I think its just a glitch with the new front page, Im sure they'll remove it soon enough.

2 weeks or more since last login (...they have it already, it says "You were last logged in x days ago from xxx.xxx.xxx"..) and you'd be (temporarily) taken off highscores - this would also make that many people would get ranked on highscores within 1mill. since I bet there's lots of people who quit/aren't playing at the moment who's ranked. and you'd get on asap you log in again :)

 

That's actually a pretty good idea :thumbsup:

 

Unfortunately it would also remove some of the old legends, who haven't played for years, from the hiscores.

No, it still says 2 million.

You have to look at it this way also, with top 10k or 30k. Those same 10k people would be on there for all time if they continued to train. With top 2m there is room to improve, and it's not like the hiscores are used for bragging rights anyway, just for signatures and stat lookups.

 

 

 

If anything should be implemented it should be a RM type of list, which shows who grinded the most in a day, week period, month period.

Quality posting at its finest.

I just don't see why they don't change it from hiscores to highscores and make it like top 100,000 players, so much better.

 

 

 

Then when you actually login you should be able to see all your friends stats and instead of saying "not ranked" it should say "xp to high scores".

I think 2m is just way too much. Its not that hard to get on even with 1m.

Expanding the Highscores to 2 million is totally unnecessary.

 

If they want to do something for those hard-to-get-ranked skills such as Strength or Woodcutting then why not divide the Highscores into F2P and P2P categories?

 

If an account is 100% F2P it would be listed on the F2P Highscores, and if an account is a current/former member it would be listed on the P2P Highscores.

 

The P2P Highscores would list all skills present in the game and the F2P Highscores would only list non-members skills.

 

I believe this could work.

 

 

 

That would encourage free players to remain free, and try to be at the top of those hiscores. A loss of potential customers is not something that Jagex wants. =|

i dont really care about the highscores,because im pretty low ranked anyway.

 

 

 

and i think they dont lower the rank limit,just a mistake ;) .

Hope so, then F2Ps can show up on Runehead.

I shall take my flock underneath my own wing, and kick them right the [bleep] out of the tree. If they were meant to fly, they won't break their necks on the concrete.
So, what is 1.111... equal to?

10/9.

 

Please don't continue.

Hiscores are now top 2 million.

Hiscores are now top 2 million.

 

Yep.

 

 

 

Stubdomain is now the worst player listed on the overall hiscores ranked 2,000,000. :D

lol you need 585 total to be on hs for overall

Possibly a bug/glitch... However, to achieve mining/woodcutting/fishing in the highscores you need over level 60! That's pretty high, I think there should be a lower requirement for the highscores such as level 50/40 or a lower rank (2m).

 

It's unlikely to be a glitch, Runescape in in BETA atm, so many things are being added/removed. ::'

 

 

 

EDIT: Goddamit. I'm too slow :lol: Looks like I was right, and got what I wanted anyways =D> \'

Ha ha my noob (100m x coins) with 51 ranged is on it :? Kinda makes hiscores a joke now, I spent like a few hours on it and I'm ranked that's not an achievement. :roll: they might as well go the whole hog and add everyone.

Thanks Gradeskip93 for my awesome sig!

The day my defense was last ranked was in 2006, when they last updated the highscores. I would never expect to see it ranked again, but here it is. Rank 1,785,000. Pretty amazing eh?

 

They should have kept it at 1,000,000.

LMAO!

 

I guess it wasn't a glitch!

You guys should stop thinking of "hi scores" as HIGH scores. Just because they changed it to 2million doesn't mean "hiscores is more of a joke now" or some garbage like that. Having 60 in a skill isn't really HIGH anyway. It's just a small way to distinguish people who've worked their skills or not. Get the skills 80+ and that's where it becomes high.

 

 

 

Seriously, stop whining over trivial stuff like this. It's just displaying your skills to other people, or not. That's it.

Man, I really do love Runescape, and I'm sure if it was a real person I would of asked it to marry me by now.

How the hell could anyone have missed the main page post about it? (including me)

 

 

 

Hiscores:

 

 

 

Ever found yourself close, but not close enough, to getting on a Hiscores table? That may change with this week's update, which doubles the number of ranks that can be viewed per skill or minigame. So, instead of viewing the top one million players in each category, you can expect the top two million.

 

 

 

With FunOrb Global Highscores also out today, helping you to view the best scores in the world at any given FunOrb game, there's never been a better time to show off your gaming prowess!

 

Ah well, top 2 million just accomodates more players. If you're already top 100k or something, it's not going to affect you, is it?
