I don't think the link works and regardless I'm not going to click it. :P

 

 

 

But yeah it is a good idea.

[Th3_Crusader]

They're only taking it as consideration, it's not a fact that it'll come out.

 

 

 

 

 

Still, nice find.

From what we know this has a better chance of coming out than sailing :/.

 

 

 

And I'd like to belive that it is this and not sailing because this is actually a good idea.

[guitar_god_2007]

why do we need this, we already have the music book right, and that shows where we have been or not...

 

 

 

B4 jaGex add any new skills they need to UPDATE all there others first!!

Of course :

 

I think exploration will be a great idea. Exploring waters would be FTW \

With a ship of course. And as they don't have engines in RS... =P

Cannon?

 

 

 

Even if they do consider and develop it, that's still like a year of waiting.

HOLY CRAP. This is the best idea I've ever seen. I read the ENTIRE thing. I could easily get 99 in that, it looks AMAZING.

Diving equipment from RFD :

[Seraphi]

I think exploration in a large part would include sailing, so yeah.....

[Toad]

sounds good but sailing will still play a part in this skill so 2 skills.

 

 

 

EDIT i still love how sailings a lame idea but slap a name on it like exploration and you all wet your pants, its the same idea but wrapped under another name

My reply w/suggestions:

 

 

 

"Nicely pieced idea. This could help create a lot of depth to RuneScape.

 

 

 

I think that RuneScape should have a new 'Pacific Ocean' that is west of the elf lands and east of port phantasmys that creates a new area with many islands. It will not be released on the world map(globe that you click in-game) until YOU find and discover the area! There should also be worlds for PvP ship combat that have say a limit of 500 people to keep lag down. You can't see others ships except in certain areas. Also, you should be able to recruit a crew to your ship! You can find the crew all throughout RuneScape and on the many islands!

 

 

 

You should also be able to dive off your boat into the sea and fight creatures in the ocean, such as a shark, a giant squid, a kraken, and other sea creatures, even mythological ones! Like the loch ness monster or a huge Hydra! Imagine fighting a boss monster or slaying monsters for tasks in the sea!"

that could still be sailing :) and wheres mah orienteering

[Th3_Crusader]

Exploration could still lead into some new updates for other skills that need an upgrade. Like what hunter did you range, Summon for combat/slayer etc.

Ofc you can.

[Atom Smash40]

it actually makes sense....

 

 

 

much more sense than sailing :wall:

 

 

 

i might train this skill if it does become implemented...

 

 

 

+ >9000!

[killerbeer0]

Wow someone actually gave sailing merit. And though I dislike the level 80 ranged armor idea everything else seems alright.

Lol censored rs forum link

 

 

 

This looks like a really good idea!

 

 

 

Part of my job is to make sure that great suggestions, like this one, are captured and sent on to the game development and content teams.

 

 

 

I will make sure that this idea gets passed on, and you can be assured that it will be given serious consideration.

 

 

 

Of course, not every suggestion we pass on will make it into RuneScape, but there are plenty that have and they all started out the same way as this one being suggested on our forums and then passed on by a Jagex Mod!

 

 

 

So thank you for letting us know about this idea - and keep your suggestions coming!

 

 

 

You never know, your suggestion could end up being used, and it would then be played and enjoyed by millions of RuneScape players every week!

 

 

 

Thanks,

I have a feeling that even if Exploration consisted of sailing, people would still say, "SEE! I told you the Sailing Skill wasn't going to come out!!" :lol:

[The Runar]

This would also be a good way to introduce the randomly-generated dungeons that Jagex told us about 5 years ago. There would be randomly generated islands which could have pretty much anything on them. Mining spots, teak/mahogany trees, chinchompas, dragons, demons, and maybe a mini-sized God Wars too. It would be really fun exploring those islands :P

 

 

 

Now I'll quickly go to RSOF and suggest this :)

[Omali]

That's because exploration =/= Sailing

[nitram99]

I do also like the idea of Exploring as a skill. It's the idea of sailing + other stuff so it's not just a plain namechange of Sailing.

 

 

 

This idea and Outsanity's idea of Archeology as a skill are the 2 most well-written ideas of new skills that I've red.

Exactly, sailing might be a part of exploration, but exploration is a much bigger and better idea.

 

 

 

sounds good but sailing will still play a part in this skill so 2 skills.

 

 

 

EDIT i still love how sailings a lame idea but slap a name on it like exploration and you all wet your pants, its the same idea but wrapped under another name

 

 

 

That's like saying that basket weaving is a lame skill, and crafting is the same thing under a different name.

Agreed.

[Mercifull]

Am I the only one that thinks it all sounds really lame? What Mod Stevew wrote is the same and what you got every time you emailed in a suggestion so its hardly a mark of official approval that it's now on the implementation list.
