Major tweaks needed for 2009-list

[canu44]

Well as you know that jagex will try to make every single nuisance gone.

 

 

 

I wish to make a list of all the annoying tidbits here and there in the game.

 

 

 

Major tidbits:

 

-Doing a special from 4 steps away because of suspended animation.

 

-While running if you click you run back and than start running again.

 

-Summoning familiars that suddenly disappear even tough your summoning tab is open and if your try dismissing it it says you dont have a familiar to dismiss. You have to log out and log back in and sometimes this doesn't even solve the problem.

 

- RANDOM EVENT THAT TELED ME OUT OF TORMENTED DEMONS and i didnt even collect my drop as a result. They should have gotten rid of these events by now.

 

- the classic moonwalk, Usually happens as your walking and than you click on the banker and you start moonwalking backwards.

 

-Grand Exchange through the tunnel pking- If you suddenly do a dragon claw spec on a person the other person wont know until he reaches the other side where he can get hit again to get almost all the damage shown in a second.

 

- The continuity of the rune scape map- if you click to cross the edgville river you wont get across until it says loading please wait

 

-

 

I also hate running in a random direction whenever I close a GE page. I also dislike walking away from GE with 8 new friends (you randomly add friends that are talking in the chat box while using GE interface).(thanks 3hitm4g3u).

 

-The teleporting of a familiar makes you stop what you are doing, it also closes the right-click dropdown menu. That is one of the most annoying things I noticed while runecrafting.(thanks bouwzie)

 

-Summoning fighting familiars need to start attacking at the exact same time as I do. The "attack" command should make them attack just like it does for my character.(thanks green9090).

 

-When you have a right-click menu thing open, it doesn't go away when certain things happen (hard to explain but very annoying (thanks muggiwhplar).

 

-Sometimes when you put a new item under one of your bank tabs, it switches with another tab and then switches back when you reopen the bank. This tends to get annoying and they really should do something about it.(Thanks Ubermager716).

 

-opening up bank and all you see is a blank bank.

 

- When you go into an area where your familiar can't fit(Ie. The Furnace in Falador, or at the slime pool under the Ecto thing) you will constantly get a message saying your familiar can't fit in that area, however whenever you get that message you're forced to stop what you're automatically doing(VERY ANNOYING).(thanks BlackKingX).

 

 

 

Minigame tidbits

 

-Stealing creation timer has unexpected endings

 

-Suspended animation lets you steal items from others inside a fog way before you even get out

 

-this happened once to me, In the phoenix lair the while i was running the monster appeared on me and it got me stuck and it also got the monster in front of me stuck so all i could do is possibly tele.

 

-How disconnecting during a phoenix killing doesnt let you do it again.

 

- countless Great orb project glitches

 

-When you try to cross the fence at sc it sometimes doesn't do anything making you click it again. Then all of a sudden you climb over the fence and immediatly go back. Quite annoying ( thanks Wouter828)

 

 

 

 

 

Minor tidbits-

 

-glitches, like alching a item without using animation

 

-Stop some armour from sticking through the back of capes( thanks mister_moocky)

 

-The stairs in Witchaven that lead down to the dungeon(The one with the Hellhounds) should be physically impossible to fit through, yet you can still get in.( thanks BlackKingX)

 

-too many to update here.

 

 

 

Keep posting your annoying tidbits so i can add to this list and cite you

[X3EN]

When you load the applet and the music isn't set to 0%, the music will play as if it's set to 100% loud, even if you have it set at whatever loudness. You can test this countless times... Set music to 10%, log out and when the music starts playing, set it from 10% to 10% (of the bar) and you will notice a HUGE decrease in loudness although you have barely changed anything (missetting +/- 1-3%)

[cocacolabottle]

Not a tweak, but a very usefull update that would make everybody happy is assigning spots to people and putting a cap on it that can't be overriden unless the player who was there first gives you permission. For instance you're doing Kalphites (with or without a cannon) and some guy shows up and just starts killing them with you, sometimes even places his cannon right next to yours. Hope that's well explained, 'cause that (in my eyes) is a tweak that needs assistance.

[The_dmt1234]

unexpected stealin creation times is because all the clay has run out, you don't really want to wait around for 9 minutes with nothing to do do you?

[romu000]

- Fx Key to activate familiar tab (a wish)

 

- When you use scrolls to transform inventory items, click the scroll activation button can also select the item under it in inventory tab... ruining the process if the item can't be transformed (you need to un select the item and get back to activation button and deactivate it befoire redoing). An alternative is to use context menu on activation button, but it makes the process very harmfull for the wrist when the 'make all' is generalised.

[3hitm4g3u]

 

-While running if you click you run back and than start running again.

 

 

 

 

I hate that.

 

 

 

I also hate running in a random direction whenever I close a GE page. I also dislike walking away from GE with 8 new friends.

[Bouwzie]

The teleporting of a familiar makes you stop what you are doing, it also closes the right-click dropdown menu. That is one of the most annoying things I noticed while runecrafting.

 

 

 

As 3hitm4g3u, the running and friends adding at the GE is extremely annoying. The running also happens when you are closing a familiar tab.

[green9090]

Summoning fighting familiars need to start attacking at the exact same time as I do. The "attack" command should make them attack just like it does for my character.

 

 

 

The gate in the Blast Furnace needs to be removed and replaced with something that handles crowds better, as does any other object in the game that handles groups of people trying to use it at the same time poorly (excepting things like mining rocks and trees that have resources, I'm talking gates, doors, etcetera).

 

 

 

Skills that do nothing but drain money and never give any benefit need to be given high level untradable rewards that make the skill worth buying.

 

 

 

Nobody not risking over 25k should be allowed to attack anyone in PvP. This will make the PvP worlds suck like ten times less.

 

 

 

Familiars gathering items should not interrupt skilling. Maybe the gathering familiars might be useful if I could fletch without them constantly canceling my fletching halfway through my inventory.

 

 

 

The bank interface has a TON of weird laggy glitchy issues that need to be ironed out.

[bedman]

Oh I agree so much with what's been written here, great topic.

 

 

 

Something I would like to add, not really an update though:

 

 

 

A tab to open your summoning beasts inventory and that doesnt close when you get attacked. So actually a permanent summoning inventory, just like your own. Have it above or next your real invtory so you can drag items from one to the other. Only problem is finding a space for it without interferring with the rest. Especially with a pack yak it takes a lot of space.

 

It's just that I hate having to use every item manually with my beast if I'am attacked.

[mario_sunny]

How about you update your randoms tweak to say: Get rid of all teleportation randoms when fighting monsters/players. Oh yes... and all the long dialouge randoms.

 

 

 

 

 

-While running if you click you run back and than start running again. I'm pretty sure they said a few years/months ago that this was a very hard glitch to fix.

Or adding the right click option similar to the bank for the BoB

 

A big annoyance to me is the AI on some of the quests (Rat Catchers for example) where it just bores or annoys the hell out of the player.

 

Same goes for the cat AI, I've never been so bored as I was with the Evil Dave Section of RfD.

 

Make slayer gem lend-able.

[sarg1010]

Tbh I'm not sure if someone has said this yet but...

 

 

 

Make a little "rest stop" or something for summoning familiars and pets near the ge, so you dont have to dismiss them when you want to go in.

 

 

 

Maybe they could add another G.E. :twss:

 

 

 

O.T. wewt 501st post \

[muggiwhplar]

When you have a right-click menu thing open, it doesn't go away when certain things happen (hard to explain but very annoying)

[UserOnRS]

A way to bank members items (if you used to be a member) in F2P without it taking up bank space.

[Gravy]

Charging lletya crystals.

[Poopingman]

I agree with the complaint about running. When I choose a new location to run to, even if its just a few spaces away from the previous one, my character doubles back and goes crazy, wasting valuable energy.

[Mil]

The only one annoying thing out of the game is the lack of RSS feed for news updates. It is actually quite unbelievable.

[langer]

Charging lletya crystals.

 

That is something that should be upgraded. As well as instant attack familiars. The G.E. friends adding glitch is awful. The morphing tools not stacking in bank is kinda lame. Some G.E. prices are still way incorrect (addy arrows ++ at 1150 gp ...I mean come on).

 

Some items should be given additional uses (nails...why do we get rune nails as rewards when they are nearly useless). The sell 50 feature in-store was nice, a sell 100 or 500 would completly destroy the junk market... or at least get rid of a majority of bank filling items.

Yeah that, when i make pouch:

 

Click make all pouch > right click operate ring of dueling and wait for animation to finish.

 

But as it finish it cancels your right click menu :evil:

[obfuscator]

I agree 100%.

[Wouter828]

When you try to cross the fence at sc it sometimes doesn't do anything making you click it again. Then all of a sudden you climb over the fence and immediatly go back. Quite annoying #-o

[Mugunge]

They need to tweak the chat system so its actually nice to use. Other games have gone with an approach thats more like IRC which works extremely well and runescapes chat has been lacking for years, its a hassle to use too. I really really wish we could create channels and that there were general channels for areas etc (like in WoW for those of you who have played it). Dont mention CCs because theyre quite annoying to use, they havent even made a feature so we can "bookmark" CCs we use often and have them show up on a list for easy access.

 

 

 

I realise the above text is quite a big "tweak" so heres a couple of suggestions for minor chat tweaks:

 

 

 

• [*:209ba758]As mentioned, a way to "bookmark" CCs, kind of like a friendslist, so you can jump between them in a fast way.
   
  [*:209ba758]Make it so you can only type if you press Enter first, which will make the chat active. This way the arrow keys can be used to edit text etc, im sick and tired of writing 8 words only to notice i mistyped the first one and then delete everything to fix it. Having people press Enter to chat means that the arrow keys can still be used for the camera since you actively choose when you want to use them for scrolling through text. This would also open up for other commands since the keyboard could respond in a completely different way. An example would be that if you press R you will automatically pm the one who last wrote to you (WoW again, sorry but they really did well with their chat system). It would speed pm'ing up so much and you wont have to keep going back to the friendslist or go through awkward menus whenever you have to respond.
   
  [*:209ba758]Two words: Line breaks. All the text just comes out as one line in the chat, which is annoying because you never know how much will get cut off by the chat-frame, also having a long nick is a disadvantage because you have less space on the line. Why cant it figure out the width of the chat frame and then add a line break if the text is longer than the width.
   
  [*:209ba758]A way to filter what text you want to see. I might want to see if my GE offers update but not "You catch a monkfish" x27. But i cant remove all the clutter without also removing the useful messages. Also if i choose to not be on the All setting then that means ill be leaving out some of the other messages. Say if im on Public then i wont see Private (unless i use split chat), Clan chat, Trade requests and Assist requests. Would be much more useful if you could just filter what you want to see, especially since the game spams you a whole lot when doing all kinds of tasks. Why keep telling a fletcher that hes stringing a bow every single time he does so, even though that should be quite clear after the first 50 levels or something. Just seems so pointless.

 

 

 

Cant think of more for now but the chat system really needs some love.

[totalpwnage]

Make hunter brawling gloves last more than 45 catches (really, this is such fail...)

 

Improve Javelins so they aren't complete junk and are actually useful.

 

 

 

Can't think of anything else that hasn't been posted yet.

[mister_moocky]

- Stop some armour from sticking through the back of capes

 

- How about the special attack bar having its own button, like they did with run, so you don't have to change menus?

 

- Make 3a and claws their real price

 

- ????

 

- Profit

[Ubermager716]

Sometimes when you put a new item under one of your bank tabs, it switches with another tab and then switches back when you reopen the bank. This tends to get annoying and they really should do something about it.
