Behind The Scenes July


Toad

Recommended Posts

 

Take your bank, for example. Many players have called for a better way of managing it, to help sort and organise the mess of herbs, long forgotten quest objects and holiday items. So, this month we will be adding a few features, the most prominent of which will be a new tabbing structure. This will allow you to order your bank according to categories that you define: you could gather your runes together on one tab, for example, and food on another. There will also be a search button and extra options for banking and removal that will aid you when moving quantities of items about.

 

 

 

Took long enough.. :roll:

 

 

 

 

'Moving items about' leads us neatly to our second anticipated feature: Item Lending. This superb service will allow free players and members to use their own wealth for the benefit of their companions by lending them handy items, powerful weapons, valuable armour and a few fancy hats too. Only one item will be lendable at any time, for a number of hours up to and including 24 hours, or until either of you log out. More information on release!

 

 

 

Finally, it's done! \' Wait..

 

 

 

 

for a number of hours up to and including 24 hours, or until either of you log out.

 

 

 

Does someone play for THAT long?!?! :D

 

 

 

 

It's at this point in the month that we look back with rose-tinted glasses and get a little nostalgic. Do you remember your first days in RuneScape: leisurely wandering round Tutorial Island, making bread, catching fish and firing arrows at rats from behind a fence? Good times! A wind of change has been blowing about Tutorial Island, however, and it's brought a whiff of danger with it...

 

 

 

The next update will move the Tutorial from Tutorial Island to a quarantined Lumbridge, where a three-headed dragon will be terrorising people and generally being a nuisance. Luckily for the citizens, a passing White Knight, Sir Vant, will be on hand to hold back the beast. Far from being able to handle the situation on his own, he'll be after a willing adventurer to keep him supplied and do a spot of fighting.

 

 

 

The new Tutorial will be more quest-like and exciting, giving players a reason to create a new character and give it a go. If that doesn't sound like your cup of tea, any player will be able to collect the new Tutorial's reward - two experience lamps - whether they have completed it or not.

I wasn't really expecting an update today. Although i can't wait to have a "Slayer" Tab in my bank. <3: Right now slayer covers my whole first page of my bank.

Thanks to all those who have messaged me concerning a revamp of my Range-Slayer guide. Because of you all I will start rewriting it asap.[/color]

There was a bug that showed Lumbridge as the next Achievement Diary. Dunno if it's been brought up.

 

 

 

I love you so much.

 

 

 

Thanks for writing what you just wrote. Seriously.

 

 

 

Thanks.

 

 

 

OT: Looks like the bank will probably be here Wednesday morning, around 8-9 hours from now. Pretty exciting.

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.

zomg, someone make pictures of tutorial island :ohnoes:

 

Hey, here's something interesting... Free version can't go through tutorial island in high definition, to see it you'd have to make and immediately upgrade a new account to members.

 

 

 

Anyone got $5 they want to blow on limited availability screenshots of full screen old Tutorial Island?

Heh, if you choose X hours for lending, then the item will not be given back by logout, you will have it for next x hours no matter how much you log out/in.

yep, I think that will basicly be for if you have a friend that is up at opposite times as you. (you know, sharing a godsword or something else, like an empty pot.)

I like the sound of this month's updates, can't wait to see what the bank looks like, but the only thing I hope for is that you can't take item's that have been lent to you into Bh, there are already enough ags's in there.

Gwd Drop's: Sara - 4 Hilt, 13 Ss(3 ls), Armadyl - None, Bandos - 6 Hilt, 4 Bcp, 7 Tasset, 4 Boot

Zamorak - None, Tormented Demons - 1 Dragon Claws, 1 Dragon Shard

You can't, that's been confirmed many times already.

and what about if you never did Tut Island? (started before it was released)

 

 

 

i think you will be able to collect the reward.

There are three sides to every story: There's one side, there's the other, and there's the truth.

I figured this month sounded so big that there was bound to be an update this week.

 

 

 

-Bank update

 

-Item lending

 

and a few fancy hats too.
-Hmmm...

 

-New tutorial (Moving to Lumbridge)

 

-Achievement Diary

 

-Lumbridge Jobs

 

-Wilderness Quest

 

-All the website stuff

 

 

 

And this is all going to be done in 3 updates?

Would they really stick the Achievement diary, new tutorial, and the lumbridge tasks all into one update? That's quite a bit to download considering f2p will be getting in on the tutorial and tasks.

 

 

 

Also: If Lumbridge as a whole is quarantined as the description suggests (A quarantined Lumbridge) then it will be a complete rework of Lumbridge, adding a graphics change to that list of updates.

E3 is the 14th to 17th. Its unlikely that Jagex will implement any updates during those days just incase a bug is introduced. Its my opinion that they might try to squeeze in the bank update before this date to show it off to the industry bods. The rest of the updates will probably come after E3 is over.

Lumbridge had a rework with the graphical update - it won't be getting another one.

The Behind The Scenes said that the tutorial would take place in a quarantined Lumbridge. Whether that's exlusive to the tutorial or all players will see it as such, it's still a completely new Lumbridge to download. emot-eng101.png?w=23
