Runescape Twitter - "The Kids up North"

Featured Replies

Jagex put out a Twitter today which didnt give out much information, but did give a hint towards something most of us questers know about.

 

 

 

Link: http://twitter.com/OfficialJagex/statuses/1566450742

 

 

 

"RS - Well that's the factory fixed, I wonder what the kids up north have been up to whilst we've been busy splitting heirs?..."

What do you all suspect this to be?

 

 

 

Do you think we might be visiting Lucien soon?

I have no idea what the kids up North could.... WAIT A MINUTE?! PENGUINS ^^!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :ohnoes: :ohnoes: :ohnoes:

 

They are going to release their submarine!!! (fixed machine)

 

It's Racktober ^^ => Chaos elemental hints!!!

 

 

 

w00t! (as a quester I'm really happy, cold war was funiest quest ever!!!)

 

 

 

Yay^^

ps. fixed machine could also refer to the machine in the dungeon near sumona...

 

(the new desert quest from Chaos elemental) (though that is not north ;-))

New mahjarrat quest. They are all meeting in the north.

Might already be obvious but "Splitting Heirs" is the name of the Easter Event this year.

Well this week will be the end of the Easter Event. I would like to say a little prayer that tomorrow will give us a Mahjarrat related quest.

Since they mentioned Splitting Heirs, I'm thinking we'll have to help at Santa's factory this Christmas.

Get back here so I can rub your butt.

I was just sniffing around the RSOF and some people think the "kids" are pointing towards Cold War 2.

 

 

 

It would make sence since the Chaos Elemental mentiones something about Raktumber.

 

 

 

Raktumber streches from 20 April - 23 May.

 

 

 

What's in Raktuber this year? A white bird, as the etymology of ornithology goes.

 

 

 

The Red Raktuber flies at midnight. (Well, maybe not 'flies'.) Regardless, I'm about to descend into a ventricle of darkness, and I don't know which hat to wear: swordfish, octopus, lobster?

If I'm right on RSOF I read a big update will happen this week...

 

It is CONFIRMED it WON'T be mobilising armies or bounty hunter....

 

...And fairy tale part 3 won't come before the graphic overhaul of Zanaris, which won't come before the developers' diary is finished...

 

 

 

So hopefully Mahjarad/Wgs2 OR penguins/Cold war2 <3:<3:

 

(both would be EPIC :ohnoes: )

Has someone already tried URL-modification?

 

Maybe for a new head image or news-post image?

 

 

 

And might the this week's featured "penguin hunting" has something to do with this new update?

 

 

 

Penguins <3: :ohnoes:

the kids up north are obviously the people on the 3rd floor of jagex- customer support

 

 

 

they are called "kids" because they get paid less than developers.

 

 

 

probably a customer support update.

That sounds extremely far-fetched and illogical.

It obviously is an actual update. While they've been trying to fend us off with an easter event, they've been making a new penguin or Mahjarrat or Freminik Islands quest.

just a thought, something i'm surprised no one mentioned with the chaos elemental, but "the white bird" could definitely refer to a swan, and piscatoris certainly qualifies as up north. a continuation of swan song a possibility at some point?

 

 

 

penguins is definitely coming soon though

[hide]

Damnit, I tripped over Magzar's half inflated blow-up doll and hurt myself. I wish he wouldn't leave that thing lying around. -.-

[/hide]

If it's going to be penguin quest then my reaction: ::'

 

My guess for the quest name: Hunt For Red Rauktober

 

 

 

Although...

 

 

 

If it's Fremmy or Mahjarat quest then my reaction: \' :thumbsup: :twisted: =P~ OMFGWEWTTACOSWITHHOTSAUCE!

"The kids up North" is the only hint here. The rest refers to Easter event

I didn't really think about it before, but Penguins are also a bird, and partly white. Perhaps the CE post was referring to penguins all along and not a dove or swan?

 

 

 

Either way, I would look for a penguin quest coming pretty soon.

yeh it's a safe bet that there's a penguin quest soon to be released

 

 

 

but the white bird could be a swan or it could be meant to sound like a military code

 

either one

I got this twitter update on my phone this morning and my first thought was Mahjarrat.

To put it bluntly, [bleep] off.

Actually; that post sounded sarcastic.

 

 

 

 

 

I think he means the factory as in the easter egg factory. :P

 

 

 

 

 

And Cw2 sounds like a plan. Though I hated the first one.
