Argorn5757 Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 Do you think Jagex should make a new F2P quest? A real one, not just a holiday event. Im wondering how this would effect the F2P world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balazeal Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 No, we don't need one. The majority of the longtime F2P'ers and I are happy with what we have. That, and a thousands of members would freak instantly and spam every forum in sight with F2P 'Scum' hate posts. 100% F2P99 Defense, Tuesday February 10th 200999 Attack, Tuesday May 26th 200962,189th to get it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Argorn5757 Posted November 2, 2008 Author Share Posted November 2, 2008 What if the quest gave you access to something useful, like rune arrows or a yew bow. (taking that from a different debate) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basiliko Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 Nope, that would means huge impact on PvP worlds (we all know about how unfair Rangers can be near Wildness Ditch). If the quest grants an transportation to varrock/falador without wasting a rune, then I am happy. But then again members would be spamming "F2P Hate" topics on official forum, if this new quest is available to F2Pers.

Balazeal Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 What if the quest gave you access to something useful, like rune arrows or a yew bow. (taking that from a different debate) Even then, members would still complain that F2P got something. That, and then range would definitely be overpowered in F2P. 100% F2P99 Defense, Tuesday February 10th 200999 Attack, Tuesday May 26th 200962,189th to get it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Argorn5757 Posted November 2, 2008 Author Share Posted November 2, 2008 Why not a big F2P quest, one that would give you, say, rune arrows and a yew bow, attack and defense potions, and a few new high level magic spells? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord_Shalaj Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 Firstly, F2P definitely doesn't need those. And also, most of the quests introduce a new item into the game, so even if a quest is released for F2P, it won't make the existing P2P items for F2P. Thanks..

legilgalad2 Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 Why not a big F2P quest, one that would give you, say, rune arrows and a yew bow, attack and defense potions, and a few new high level magic spells? Yeah and why not open up Kandarin as well :roll: I beleive a new F2p quest would be totally unnessary, one of the main draws to P2P are the large quantity of quests. Similarly the amount of hate mail from P2p'ers wolud crash the RSOF's into oblivion. Woodcutting does not raise your combat level because most people do not play as yew trees.

Balazeal Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 Why not a big F2P quest, one that would give you, say, rune arrows and a yew bow, attack and defense potions, and a few new high level magic spells? No, that would upset the F2P combat triangle. Also, as established earlier, F2P doesn't need anymore quests. If you're F2P, and you want more quests, go members, it's as simple as that. Also, why is this in the 'Debate' section? I think this should be in the 'Suggestions and Bugs' forum. 100% F2P99 Defense, Tuesday February 10th 200999 Attack, Tuesday May 26th 200962,189th to get it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinkhan Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 I think more F2P accesible minigames with much more member features would be good updates to satiate both parties. One is getting a hint of the goodness and getting things mixed up while the others get the extra content they wanted. I really hoping this new skilling/combat minigame will be partially F2P :pray: The RTS looking game seems to have good chances of being P2P only, but I'm ok with that. Something to fill my sig with until I find a replacement.Also check out my blug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danno385 Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 100% F2P saying that would just be disrupting another tradition. We got by when they killed PKing (as some would say but not me. There are so many different player killing things on RS anyway.) but it if they took out the tradition of these few quests. Well I would be a little peeved. In fact, I do have some pancake mix.

Kickthat Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 Personally I can't see the problem. I'd like to think members would be more concerned about doing a new quest than ranting and whining about how f2p's can do it to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladycai Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 Not necessary.

Lady_Shahdie Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 As an F2Per myself, I can pretty comfortably say that a new quest is not what I'm itching for. I think most F2Pers would agree that skill enhancements are usually the desired updates in F2P. After all, its a pain to level most skills in F2P and something that helps gain xp somewhat easier or allows you to gather resources a tad faster (or a new resource all together) is quite appreciated. But to be honest, I think us F2Pers have enjoyed a huge amount of freebies from Jagex for the past year and that we shouldn't get too greedy with the hand that feeds us :P. ~Retired 13-July-2010~Thanks for the great memories folks :).

Skilling0wn Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 F2P's dont "need" it, nor the rights to claim one.

If i ever were to go back to F2P i would treasure a new resource, Maybe add the odd maple tree, Or flax? :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wa5t3dy0u7h Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 Well i believe that no new quests for f2p has contributed to all of the competitiveness to "the race to 99"... people run out of things to do and need something to brag about/keep them busy.. Kinda like asking for a new dollar menu at McDonald's.. Why not just buy the combo meal if the dollar menu doesn't fill you up?

There have been massive f2p updates lately (since maybe last year, at fist of guthix) The only reason we got those updates, was because Jagex felt the need to make it up to all Runescape players after removing PVP from the Wilderness. (Jagex takes from F2P and P2P, Jagex gives back to F2P and P2P. You mems weren't the only people to lose the Wilderness.) 100% F2P99 Defense, Tuesday February 10th 200999 Attack, Tuesday May 26th 200962,189th to get it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legilgalad2 Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 I think that some F2per's are getting a little carried away with the events of the last year. One of the main reasons F2p got so many updates was to make-up for the removal of the wilderness. Now that sufficient replacements (in Jagex's eyes) are here life in a F2p world will more likely go back to the norm of having only a few updates a year.

Owned_Nex Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 No. F2p does not need it. Yew bow and rune arrows would further overpower range in f2p. Range is byfar the dominant force in f2p. There is no need to reinforce that Dungeoneering isn't a skill. I'm faster than bots at Sorceress Garden. PM me if you want to chat. My PM is always off. My keyboard is on fire. Want some?

jimmyjames227 Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 Member's pay for runescape for new content if that new content was for P2P and F2P jagex would go bust as player's would have no reason to buy membership. And once that happens no more runescape. My username is jamesrules90 NOT jimmyjames227.Click here to feed me!A nice undieable one!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
