Cheefoo Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 It's almost been a year since summoning came out, a new skill should be coming soon. What do you think it will be? Discuss whatever skills you think will be coming out! So does anyone have any ideas on what could count as a skill? What more skills could they possibly release, if any? Personally, I think SAILING is a possibility. Yes, I really said that. It would be a great skill, in my opinion. Pirates, ships, unlocking new areas! So what do you think will be the big yearly update? Usually, it's a skill, could it be something else even?

Raze cities with firemaking, plunder their loot, enslave the population for your kingdom. There have been no hints for any skills, I don't think any is coming out soon.

NJE03 Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 I would prefer to see the current skills expanded and further improved rather than an all new skill being released.

Cheefoo Posted December 6, 2008 Author Share Posted December 6, 2008 It's great that you don't want a new skill, or don't think one's coming out, but one is coming out rather soon. Construction and Hunter had barely any hints before they came out. After farming, skill came out usually within a year or so of eachother, so we should be expecting one soon.

Construction and Hunter had barely any hints before they came out.

Are you implying that every single year a new skill is going to be released? This is highly unlikely to me.

3hitm4g3u Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 I really don't think sailing will ever happen. And tbh I hope it doesn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mervinator_9 Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 Meh I dont think there one coming out as theres been no build up, granted that hunting and construction didnt either but from now on I get the feeling jagex will advertise and hype a new skill up like they did with summoning. Also the new feature in Bts that showcases the next few months would probably mention something. Tbh i dont really think jagex should churn out skills just to keep to an annual rota, much better to implement a skill when other things have been sorted and perfected. Also Sailing = Fail (it could actually be alright but i think Rs coastlines might need some expanding) Theres a fine line between not listening and not caring,I like to think I walk this line every day. Pinning blame on Jagex is like trying to put pants on an old man. You both know he needs them, but he'll just keep dancing around, avoiding them at all costs.

Kaphias Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 It's great that you don't want a new skill, or don't think one's coming out, but one is coming out rather soon. Construction and Hunter had barely any hints before they came out. After farming, skill came out usually within a year or so of eachother, so we should be expecting one soon. Barely any hints? Are you blind or something?

Jard_Y_Dooku Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 Maybe some sort of Eastern lands skill is coming out. They mentioned that we would see stuff from there next year. December BTS[/url]":3nrbn5kz]Since our graphical update earlier in the year, weve been playing around with a variety of new haircuts for the game. Weve now gathered around 20 new styles and will be releasing them during December to the free and members games. These new hairdos include some rather interesting styles inspired by AkHaranu, a visitor from the unexplored eastern realms. Perhaps next year will unearth more fashions from these interesting folk?

Shelby_Polo Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 As much as I love new skills. I don't think Jagex is coming out, or should come out, with a new skill. While we all should know, Jagex is ALWAYS working on a new skills; even before Summoning came out. I don't think they should release it this soon; as I also think they should add to existing skills.

Cheefoo Posted December 6, 2008 Author Share Posted December 6, 2008 Or, instead of a skill, they'll open up the Eastern Lands! I can't wait to see that! However, there's nothing wrong with making a new skill, is there? What's the downside of a new skill, besides the chance of re-rolling, and hoping they made a better update instead? I think they'll just release a whole lot of content in the "East" instead of a new skill. Or maybe they would have a new skill unlocked there! NINJA SKILL ZOMG?! I don't think so... But if they release the East, it would bring updates to tons of skills, new weapons, new clothes, new items, maybe even a new skill, who knows?

People were talking about construction waaaaay before it came out. I don't think you understand the point I was trying to make... Jagex never really gave any hints just before the skill came out. It was a big surprise, it came out of nowhere, is what I mean. In the case of hunter, I never heard them say ANYTHING about it, and wasn't expecting it. So you never know when a new skill is going to come out. So does anyone have any ideas on what could count as a skill? What more skills could they possibly release, if any?

coenvg Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 A few years ago, many people supported something like archaeology. This also could mean discovering foreign cultures and maybe time travelling (we all remember meeting history right?). And also, one of the previously updates had a hint in the last line, which talked about clues which where to come for some great update, and the little teaser in the last line was something like: "Leave no stone unturned". So, maybe Jagex have worked their way down the earth and buried some old skeletons which we can raid (guess they don't use c14 methods and such yet). But well, It sounds rather interesting to me to know more about the Gilnore history (almost all recent quest had some historical value), I really enjoy such content, although I doubt a skill about it would be really tempting. so maybe Sailing all the way eh? :mrgreen: #-o :cry: :( ;) Master of Firemaking since 10-11-2007 Yes, I QUIT! =] Master of Woodcutting since Christmas 2007Completed all quests - Completed all achievement diaries.

stormveritas Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 It's really hard to say, as there was no need for a new skill when Summoning hit. In hindsight, I -love- summoning, and after new tweaks it developed into a great skill. I don't see a need for a new skill, nor have I seen any hints of a new skill coming out. Realistically, how many more could they need? If you can't summarize the content into 24 skills, you're really not trying very hard. I can't think of too many new things that they could offer that couldn't be added into some combination of existing skills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimberly Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 Perhaps next year will unearth more fashions from these interesting folk? Only time will tell... I'm surprised that, given this line, no one has mentioned archeology. And the, "Leave no stone unturned." line that was mentioned a bit ago.
