runesmithie Posted July 24, 2005 Share Posted July 24, 2005 After seeing the games room onthe most crowded servers have only 10 people playing at a time, I thought it would be more used if it was f2p. Yes yes, gonna do the pay $5 whine... but when's the last time you've used the game room? Likely not often... and there are very few that do anymore, which makes it harder to get ranks at all unless you like going +1 every round Instead of being attached to burthope it could be under the Falador abandoned mansion. Other: Staking: It could have a bank inside and a floor dedicated to staking games Prizes: Use your rank to get armor or other useless status symbols (like chompy hats, it doesn't take down your rank when buying armor, but you can only buy armor up to that rank) Your ideas/comments/suggestions are welcome I just posted something! ^_^ to the terrorist...er... kirbybeam.

jackalope14 Posted July 24, 2005 Share Posted July 24, 2005 Usually I dont like the idea of larger updates for f2p too often but I like this idea. I just went to the games room today and got killed by runesmithie in checkers and connect four and there was no one there, except a few other people which take up a tiny corner of the game room.

slimysteve Posted July 24, 2005 Share Posted July 24, 2005 Thats true, the problem is there is no inititive (except fun) to keep people playing, and staking will seem to much like gambling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubsa Posted July 24, 2005 Share Posted July 24, 2005 Why the smeg not. The thing's a waste of space anyway. (Except for the handy games necklace) This is how much you all raised for charity. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superpiff0 Posted July 25, 2005 Share Posted July 25, 2005 Yes, this Idea would work nicely. But what would the games necklace do then? Maybe keep the current, but add a mini game room to some f2p place. Barrow Trips: 4Barrow items: Arhim's skirt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or you could have some tunnel from under fally abandoned mansion to the current games room which will be f2p... but f2p'ers cant go up into the main castle?

sligo Posted July 25, 2005 Share Posted July 25, 2005 I like this idea. Rather than having a "mini" games room somewhere, which would make the games room problem a bit worse in P2P (2 locations for an unpopular feature), have a teleport portal in Remmington to and from the Burthorpe games room. For F2P, then, the stairs would be off limits. A couple more enhancements to the games room should include: 1. Staking (I'm not a gambler, but since we have staking in the Dueling area, no reason not to have it here - except that it would be P2P only) 2. More game options, including Chess, some card games (2 player/4 player games?), and Backgammon. 3. I'm working on a new skill idea where playing games will actually permit you to train this new skill, though the gained experience will actually be pretty low compared to what the skill will actually be used for. However, with a skill tied to gaming, people will want to play games to train, especially at the lower levels. I know that you believe you understand what you think I said, but, I am not sure you realize tht what you heard is not what I meant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Escape5 Posted July 25, 2005 Share Posted July 25, 2005 Lmao I totally forgot about this place. Yea you are right, no1 likes it anymore... It would do a lot of justice if it was F2p. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AniseCookies Posted July 25, 2005 Share Posted July 25, 2005 yes! i like this idea! the games room is sooooo deserted!!!!! and stakes sounds good... make it f2p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Outsanity Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 Holy mother of all things unbelievable and random...first I actually found one of Blaziken's posts legitimate...and now, I actually agree free players should get something members have. I mean...why the hell not? We sure don't use it at all, and other than for fun, it's useless. Add stakes, give it to f2p's also, and all will be great and dandy. Good idea, great thinking, and I sure would love the falador mansion to be used for something too. :) |2,300+ Total|138 Combat|12 Lvl 99 Skills|99 Slayer| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However random and very useless it would be, his Sand-term guard bestiaty I will admit had thought put into it...but I'm not saying that I enjoy any more of his post. Anyways, once again, this is a great idea, and if no one will submit it to jagex, I will...and if they need a voting, I sugest we make a petition...we'd certainly win. ;) |2,300+ Total|138 Combat|12 Lvl 99 Skills|99 Slayer| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Escape5 Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 They should add chess or something, or black jack etc... Those would be really cool :D You should post this in the RS Official Forums if you havent already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crim_nimora Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 Well you could tell them, that you wont use the games room till it turns f2p, which shouldn't be that hard to accomplish. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Domovoi Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 For once I agree with a f2p addition, if the games room is that deserted it wouldn't be a probelm being f2p. Domovoi123-Level 80 f2pNoxious 0ne-Level 46 f2p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buggienuk Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 making it f2p might work, but still, the games are lame they should add some more games like go, japanese chess or stratego (not sure if the last one is the english name :oops: ) if they made go i would certainly come there when i change my slay task Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if that was supposed to be a low shot to me or an agreeing statement...but either way, it's a well known fact that quoting what other people say in different boards and bringing those attributes into other conversations shows your lack of creativity and tactfulness, not to mention that you can't just let things go and admit your faults. Honestly... :lol: Now for the third time, I'm saying this is a good idea, and wondering when we can get a petition started for it. I'll even send it into jagex if we can get enough signatures. :D |2,300+ Total|138 Combat|12 Lvl 99 Skills|99 Slayer| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaibani Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 They should have a computer game room where you can access the internet and play games like runescape in the games room. Ya. Sup noobs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
