27th May - Dungeon maps and spam filter

[Omali]

Fail.

 

 

 

Great post. Would read it again.

[Aslan]

The Hp bar for monsters will probably stay the same, no matter how much hp a monster has.It'll just drain slower.

[Leetman]

 

Well, when they give good updates I won't trash them. I didn't criticise Tales of the Muspah, Missing My Mummy, Soul Wars, fixing the run lag issue, and haven't crushed the dungeon maps either. I pointed out that I won't use them. The HP bar however I think is making my colon bleed. And I have no interest or desire in garnering attention to myself. And I'm only playing until my membership runs out.

 

 

 

But I'll make sure to hang around the boards and call Jagex out on the crap they are spewing forth into the game just for you.

 

 

 

its... a Hitpoints bar. come on, enough with the drama queen

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

as for the updates, I like 'em! The look goes better with R00nscape in hi-def, and I've been waiting for dungeon maps anyway. spam filter cool, and uh, dont give too much a care about leprechauns, but from what I've heard its good

[Seraphi]

I'll get used to it.

 

I just wish the colours were a little darker.

 

Improved funcoinality is always good.

 

Pretty nice update in my eyes.

 

 

 

Another note:

 

Me_Hate_libs, quite complaining about EVERYTHING that Jagex does... Honestly, are you ever satisfied with anything? Or are you just another one of those people who wishes to lay in a pool of nostalgia for "The good old days" for the rest of your life?

[Heleor]

Fail.

 

 

 

Great post. Would read it again.

 

 

 

Thank you. I wasn't sure if it'd stand up to repeat readings. You put my mind at ease.

[guitar_god_2007]

been killing nechs for about 10 mins. and im used to the new bar. just looked at the old one quickly and yeah it does look like ms paint. :thumbdown:

 

 

 

So when do the riots for this update start?? :P

[Kirderf123]

One of the best updates so far in 2009.!

 

 

 

HP bar :thumbup:

 

Dungeon maps :thumbup: :thumbup:

[Nero]

Skill spam filter yay

[HenryW2]

Quite a nice update

 

 

 

The dungeon maps will be useful

 

I find the HP bar to be a little strange, but it's nice to look at

 

Haven't had a chance to try the spam filter though

[InkofDeath]

This year has had very few things that I find interesting. I own a quest cape (something I really enjoy), all my stats are 70+ (mining being an exception), have 99 crafting as well as a few other 99s, I have 'completed' all the miniquests, I have unlocked every area in the game, have been boss hunting, perfected farm runs, know more about this game than I do my job...

 

I was where you're at now back in like 06, early 07 on my main. I couldn't stand not having anything new to do, nothing repetitive that was still exciting or fun. Every often I'd get an urge to do something but it would quickly fade away. Then I made a pure, somewhat enjoyed it, then I joined a team, enjoyed it immensely, then I joined a clan and it was the excitement I needed to play Runescape every so often.

 

 

 

pretty much completed all that it has to offer at the moment outside of grinding. PvP updates for this game are lost on me because the combat system is severely lacking anything close to skill and as such offer little excitement for me.

 

Basically go join a clan whether it be a main or a pure one, but clans make all the difference. Solo pking is repetitive and boring. Clan pking in 20vs20, 60vs60 or higher scrims is just excellent for the mind to be honest. Give it a go?

HP Bar owns. New splashes, ftw.

 

 

 

Everything else: Good fight Tip.It on your hard work. Nice dungeon map. :)

 

 

 

(As in Jagex is making all of Tip.It's hard efforts useless, next we'll see a combat calculator, a max hit calculator on their website...lol)

[Krampell]

I love the new hp bar and the dungeon maps. Only think that is a bit thumbs down, is that the splats could be a lil bit brighter.

[K112]

Dungeon Map update is good.

 

Skilling spam filter is even better.

 

Not sure about new HP bar, I think i'd like it better if it was the same size as before. The graphic update on it is much much better though.

[cat666]

God people like to moan.

 

 

 

All the updates are OK, nothing ground breaking but all useful.

 

 

 

HP Bar is better.

 

Splats are splats. As long as they say how much I hit, or were hit I'm cool.

 

Dungeon maps are awesome if you need to know where things are. Lets not forget we are not all experienced players. I got lost and died in a dungeon when I was a noob as I couldn't find the exit. This would have saved me.

 

Spam filter is the big one for me. You have cut a teak log, You have a cut a teak log. Grr shut up already. Big thumbs up for that.

[Golvellius]

Leprechauns already changed once in the last year...

 

How many times they going to change them while things like trolls and hobgoblins never get updated?

 

At this rate it will take 2 consecutive years of "update years" to correct all the mistakes in the game from 08 alone!

 

I see no reason to login again anytime soon, let alone pay them a dime.

[Den]

I like the new 0 splat. :mrgreen:

Yes, we foresaw this. It's a shame really, of course it's a good update which will improve the gameplay a lot, but I think we'll lose a bit of traffic. You guys also have no idea how horrible and time wasting it is to make a good dungeon map.

[Nurse_Renard]

* The Fight Arena quest has been significantly improved.

 

 

 

Hmm, I wonder whats been improved?

[joke33]

I like the new 0 splat. :mrgreen:

 

 

 

 

Energy shields need T3h Laz0rs to be pierced! Next skill- Laz0ring!

 

 

 

Ontopic:

 

Anyone tried the new hp bar out for PvP?

 

 

 

:twss:

 

 

 

Also, the REAL RS MAP topic isn't lost yet, the map Jagex made isn't REAL map, it's just conjunctions of different parts of the dungeons, most of the things on same page in there are actually far-far apart, and OUR SUPERB topic makes the Jagex's pitiful attempt into nothingness [/optimism]

 

 

 

EDIT: Oh, I mistake the thing... You ment the dungeon maps not the real map -.- ... Well then, Good Fight indeed...

[ClimberKid]

How typical that leprechauns are now closer to patches, just as I stop training farming :wall:.

 

 

 

Love these updates though, the new splats especially. And FINALLY a chat filter. How I have been waiting for this! Well done Jagex :thumbup:.

[nicrune007]

 

 

 

not so sure about poison, a bit difficult to see.

 

Anyone got disease?

 

:o Poison looks leet IMO.

 

 

 

Looks so much like from Guildwars lol. :lol:

 

 

 

 

 

Pretty good update I'd say. :thumbup:

[Punitive_D]

I'll still consult Tip.it before entering an unfamiliar area -- there's still lots of value-added to Tip.it's maps that Jagex never will provide (such as keys and the like).

[funnisam]

the problem is the hp bar and splats dont fit in too well, they look too.... good for the rest of the game :-#

[joke33]

Just remembered we still are in lead of Jagex in dungeon maps- we have the monster spawns and items too... (They only have CT as far as I remember)

[anish00b]

the reason why some people might not be liking it is because they arent using HD. i think it fits more better with the HD rather than the SD..also can anyone check what monsters are now un-afkable in GWD? just too see whether or not i should put my guide down(finally :P)

 

 

 

 

 

EDIT: also i was wondering how te HP bar fits in with pking..as in is it easy to know when to spec or is just a blind man's game now?

[wioneo]

I like the new 0 splat. :mrgreen:

 

 

 

 

 

 

Does that mean that there is a visible difference between hitting 0 and missing now? If so =D> Doesn't really matter much, but I always wanted that little update.

 

 

 

EDIT: Also, SPAM FILTER WOOT!!! I was waiting for them to add tab features to the game tab for ages, but this should work just as well. There was nothing really exceptional this update, but I'd like to see what people think up to complain about...
