zdavenz Posted July 18, 2008 Author Share Posted July 18, 2008 Yeah Playstation won,sorry. :wall: Anyway, yeah i heard it was by googling Runescape and like 1,000,000 hits come up if you google 'Runescape at E3'. But it probably wasn't televised 'cos if you watched the G4 coverage like me you noticed there are hundreds of these booths with games you never heard about. P.S. There are so many more freakin' Noobs in f2p.

Swordhand20 Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 Jagex were probably afraid they would get beaten up by RS players angry over the RWT updates. I can just imagine someone 300-kicking Andrew in the chest over that. "Mr Gower any plans for adding free trade or the wilderness back into the game?" "No, sorry. With all the time we spent creating the alternatives like the grand exchange it would be madness." "Madness?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom_Servo Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 If they were there, I'm sure not many people cared. I mean seriously would you rather look at Tom Clancy's End War, Fallout 3, and Spore or a crummy browser game you probably associate with poor people? Let's face it, Runescape isn't exactly a well received game and it never has been. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a successfull game that has had a long lifespan. games like Tom Clancys i play for a month then get bored so yeah.. i dont really go back to them sure they have more hype but i come back to rs.

Arilauske Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 I believe that Jagex pulled out of E3 last week so they wouldn't have been there. EDIT: I'm wrong it seems. Don't believe all that you read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Millard Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 Firstly, nobody "won" E3, it isnt a competition. :roll: I saw a couple of things on massivley but thats about it, anyway whose gonna waste time reporting about a small java company when the likes of Sony and Microsoft are there.

Not to argue but when i said 'won' i meant showed better stuff then Nintendo and Sony in my opinion.

Arilauske Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 Yeah a lot of coverage seems to say that Nintendo's offerings were disappointing as were Sony's somewhat. Microsoft seemed ot have the edge there. Anyway back on topic... Anyone see this mistake (In the first link posted above): We sat down Tuesday morning to talk with the people at Jagex, the US-based company that develops the wildly popular Runescape MMO Jagex are UK-based. Oh and check this out: They also are considering, behind the scenes, the possibility of adding some microtransactions to the game at some point in the future. Legal RWT ftw?

Winner5555 Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 From the first link to get their offering into the right hands. They view the business model as a form of defense as well, allowing them some degree of shielding. If anyone else wants to enter the browser-based MMO space, they'll need to match the Runescape price of 'free' in order to compete. They also are considering, behind the scenes, the possibility of adding some microtransactions to the game at some point in the future. Never thought about it that way, and what do they mean by the microtransactions? 621st person to achieve 99 slayer on December 3rd, 2007177th person to 99 summoning on June 21st, 2008 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragon246665 Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 I didn't even hear a whisper of RS at E3, you would think they would want to advertise the new HD runescape and try and make WoW feel bad for charging a lot more cash. Either way of what I did see I think the coolest presentation there was by will wright talking about his newest sim game called spore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ixindor Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 Interesing Find: http://www.massively.com/2008/07/15/a-c ... rew-gower/ I particularly find this part interesting: Where do you envision RuneScape to be a year from now? We will always focus on improving RuneScape and adding more depth to it. That said, a year from now, I would expect more of a focus on multiplayer and teambased gaming. We believe that players would benefit from more social content, and we have some great ideas for this. You won't have to be in a clan to do any of this either we have plans for match-making scenarios where you could meet other players and team up with those that you like. We see RuneScape as a forum for people to meet and get to know each other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
