July 26, 200520 yr Hi everyone! I just came back to RS after a break for almost a year. Fun to play RS again but still this terrible thing; banking; haven't improved at all. I think partly why I quit was because I got so boored spending 25% of the time in the bank. Well, I've been thinking of something that wont give us more room but maybe will help in some other ways. Please feel fre to comment! Ok, here we go... Much of the time we spend in bank is re-packing. Whenever you run from one mission to another you have put everything in, then take the new stuff out. An example could be going from fighting to farming. First bank all leftover food, pots, loots and more. Undress and bank all armour, ammys, rings, weapon. Then bank again, pick out gardening boots, rake, buckets, seeds and more. Then put on boots. Oh, forgot to take off magic boots. Bank again. There, runs off to garden. Ouch, forgot watering can! Back again. This takes way too much time! Now imagine if we could swap from one mode to another in a few clicks. That would be a great improvement. My idea is to be able to save different setups, and to give them names. Example: Put everything on, put all the items you need in your inventory, dress in the armour and weapons you need, click save, name it: "Fight in the Wild", maybe "Farming Default", "Fishing in Guild", wahtever, you name it! So next time you goto bank, click on "Fight in the Wild" and everything you carry is banked and you're instantly equipped with the new setup. Everytime exactly as you want it. And nothing forgotten! I refer to the idea as "Packing Lists". Maybe they even could be tradeable? Note: A bad thing making them tradeable is that you can make a perfect setup for all the quests around, and that would maybe ruin some of the fun. Well, don't make them tradeable then ;) Please feel free to comment on this idea. It can probably be improved even more.
July 26, 200520 yr Author Ty Insane! :) To simplify it a bit for Jagex... Instead of being able to name your setups, there could be one setup per skill to save in; Prayer, Magic, Farming, Smithing aso. Most people would want more different combat-setups but Attack, Strength, Defense, Hitpoints, Magic, Prayer, Range should be nearly enough. And nothing would stop you from from saving an additional combat-setup in ex "Farming".
July 26, 200520 yr Wow, good idea. I'm all for it. I've always been in favor of ideas that make banking easier such as tabs, alphabetization, or a search button. lpinkus
July 26, 200520 yr Author Ty Ipinkus, glad u like it! :) I've also been thinking about tabs. It's a very promising idea! Banking is really taking too much of everyones time. It's a pity on such a nice game otherwize. Killing the social part of it too.
July 27, 200520 yr That sounds really cool. Or another thing is dont forget :P :oops: Nah jk, I really like the idea :P
July 27, 200520 yr Would i be also allowed for f2p? :) How much space in each '' tab '' ? But it is a good idea :D I like it!
July 27, 200520 yr Great Idea. I love it, it would work fine. :wink: And I think this should be members only.
July 27, 200520 yr i like the idea but it should be for non mem I seriously hope not. Free-players doesn't have enough bank space to have big group, so it can't be free-player's stuff.
July 28, 200520 yr I think Blaziken is right on this. p2p has more skills, more equipment for the skills, and just plain more stuff to wear and orginize. f2pers, on the other hand, have a few basic outfits, and limited bank space. It would make sense for this to be a p2p feature, and jagex could use it to get more memebrs, aswell. BTW, i think this idea is great, and more origanal (and better though out) than most bank related suggestions.
July 28, 200520 yr i like the idea but it should be for non mem I seriously hope not. Free-players doesn't have enough bank space to have big group, so it can't be free-player's stuff. You haven't been F2P for a while have you? F2P ppl go thru the same thing! I hate that! Oops still got my gloves on! bank. dam wrong wep. bank. etc.
July 29, 200520 yr i love it. this is probably one of the best ideas ive ever heard. You're my hero *hugs* yay!
July 29, 200520 yr Author Tyyyyyy everyone! :) I've almost start dreaming about it, think it's real ;) Let's hope Jagex sees this, likes it and implements it. I mean, what are they waiting for? Doesn't everyone read tip.it forums? ;)
July 29, 200520 yr This is a fantastic idea, it would revolututionise banking :) Saves time and you just don't aggravated with switching this and that each time you're doing something else. Domovoi123-Level 80 f2pNoxious 0ne-Level 46 f2p
July 29, 200520 yr Great idea, I will go one step further; How about making "safety deposit boxes" in addition to your regular bank acct? Have a limited amount of boxes that you can "rent" and store up to xx items in each?
July 29, 200520 yr amazin idea but jagex wont do it because it means people will get certain things done faster and maybe then end their membership sooner and the bs greedy jagex staff just want more cash My metal dragon log and goal of 90 magic with 40k fire bolts :D
July 29, 200520 yr Author About safety boxes, nice thought. I think it would be hard to implement though. Everything in game has been carefully located to avoid "abuse" or "glimpses", especially the banks. Quests are then made afterwards. It's doable but, well. Please start a new thread with the idea so we can stay targeted to the original idea. Anyone got any ideas about improoving the "banking lists"?
July 29, 200520 yr Author amazin idea but jagex wont do it because it means people will get certain things done faster and maybe then end their membership sooner and the bs greedy jagex staff just want more cash I think your wrong. I don't think Jagex want's us to spend 25% of our time in bank. It only causes frustration and make people quit. I did ;) On the contrary I think this change could make people enjoy the game much more. Well, that's my thought.
August 6, 200520 yr i like the idea but it should be for non mem I seriously hope not. Free-players doesn't have enough bank space to have big group, so it can't be free-player's stuff.free players may have more stuff than they can fit in their bank... :roll:
