Your Perfect RS

[Makoto_the_Phoenix]

A perfect RS? Probably an RS that I'd still want to play. That being said, I think I'd be satisfied with its current incarnation - limits and all.

[Xaninum]

In addition to almost everything already stated, I think a perfect RS world would include my main account being unbanned and the bringing back of unid herbs so I can merchant them again.

[walka92]

no trade limits

GE still exists despite this, but the price it gives is a recommended price and you can enter absolutley any price for any item.

proper staking is back

 

make the extreme, high level potions tradeable and useable in pvp

 

old PC

 

skillcapes in f2p. they did the work on a skill, they deserve the cape, too.

 

merch clans are banable

 

old pking. id like to get a way for no dragon claws in pvp but then my main money maker dies. meh

 

longer lending system upto maybe 5 days or a week

 

dangerous clan wars were you actually get their armour

 

***more bosses like corp. beast; massive hp, takes massive groups to kill. maybe even a raid type situation like in WOW (dont shoot me for wanting to incorporate WoW aspects in to rs, its a good idea). for those who dont know, its complex dungeons where even the low level (not boss) monester can beat the crap out of you if you arent prepared, and the bosses are even harder. with untradeable and tradeable drops alike. takes massive groups to beat

 

new items in smithing that cant be traded but are stronger than godswords (requires 99 smithing, ofcourse) and needs alot of hard to get items

 

 

thatd pretty much be my perfect runescape. if they did some or all of that i might play again

 

 

 

 

****- one thing of all of this, that i think really needs to be implemented. the current dungeons/bosses are too simple and too easy once you get any decent combat level....

[ilovesilvia]

Just keep everything the way it was in 2005...

[Tecmaster]

(E) All of the Above.

 

plus...

 

BAN AFK'ERS

Banning afkers is no longer necessary as a recent hidden update has made it so that if you are inactive for more than 5 minutes you are logged out even if you are in combat. There are several fairly amusing rants on the rsof from afkers about this.

[Lielac]

1. Compress smithing and add the ability to smith more dragon items. Bring dragon ore out; guarded by Dragonkin, of course.

2. Make firemaking useful and worth it to level.

3. Add another few ways to level Prayer.

4. Take statuettes and such-like OUT. Replace with untradable pwnage PvM only weapons/armour with requirements filling the gap to 99.

5. Raise the pet limit in menageries.

6. Do NOT, under ANY circumstances, take the GE out. EVAR. That idea about if an item doesn't buy, it should go up/down 25% sounds good...

In other news...

 

visible combat levels have been removed (except for in pvp servers) and will be replaced by the player's IQ. You will be tested for your IQ the next time you log in.

 

You can now slap other players when they annoy you, this deals one damage and adds them to your ignore list. [/troll]

 

The runescape classic graphics option has been added to graphical settings - be sure to check out the godwars dungeon - as it would be if it were runescape classic! (Always thought this one would be awesome to have)

 

the old Dance emote has returned.

 

All accounts that have been inactive for more than 3 years or banned for more than 6 months will have their display names changed for other users to claim - we believe an account this old is unlikely to be active again any time soon.

 

Smithing has now been updated, though we'd rather it be a surprise as to how, enjoy discovering!

 

Hovering your mouse over your total level will show your total experience, we've now added a minigames tab to the skill menu as well, to show your scores or accumulated points in games such as fist of guthix and pest control.

 

Sage of Lead now plays runescape again (He left in his prime).

 

You can now view old cut scenes from quests by right clicking the completed quest and going selecting view cut scenes.

 

 

 

Yup, that would make it a bit nicer :)

[/hide]You should be CEO. :thumbup:

 

Tons of other good ideas in this thread too. I need to make a list of things I come across when playing as I can't think of anything at the moment. :S

[BiJay]

Just some things I would like to see from a f2p perspective:

 

1.) Keep trade restrictions, GE and bounty/pvp worlds but raise the trade limit for old friends a bit. Remove pvp artifacts or find a better solution for inflation. Raise f2p pvp armour usage to 1 hour or increase their drop rate.

 

2.) Announce manipulation clans as non legitimate. Ban all clan leaders if they keep doing it after one week.

 

3.) Make a prayer minigame for both f2p and p2p with exp as reward and also prayer cloths as p2p rewards. This could be one enhancement for the so called prayer guild in the monastery.

 

4.) Let Firemaking enhance weapons so you can do ignite damage (does a few damage hits after the first) - could be p2p only.

 

5.) Give skillcapes to f2p. Also higher crossbows and bolts would be nice for ranging.

 

6.) Increase the stock of plain pizzas in npc stores.

 

7.) ... more I can't currently think of. :D

[Youmu]

Since you guys are all mentioning about the GE, this has reminded me of one more thing.

 

Remove max/min price and make it so that you can only trade at the current market price. This shall deem price manipulators and merchanting clans obsolete. :thumbup:

[Wouter828]

The perfect Runescape...

 

-I'd like it to run more smoothly, banks not getting messed up by lagg while withdrawing.

-I'd like all the childish and randomly offensive, annoying, brainless, seemingly sterotype-8-year-olds removed from the game.

-I'd like participating in a merching clan to be bannable. I'd say this would be easily doable. For all we know, Jagex is like a communist government with godmode on. They can direct streams of items and money or whatever. Searching all clanchat names for names of items which are skyrocketing without apparent reason would be like squashing a fly.

-I would like my display name to become the same as my username.

-I would like normal sounds in Runescape. The music still is crap.

-I would like more communication between Jagex and the public about new items and their special uses and their drop rate. I want to see figures change when I put on my ring of wealth or rabbit foot so I KNOW it's working.

 

I have a less realistic wishlist but I'll keep that to myself.

How would the price change according to demand/offer? :-|

:thumbup: I was thinking more along the line of a crystal-ball movie theater room in one's house (similar to the bank robbery video), but that works too.

[Seabourch]

None of this limits to trading, keep the GE. Much more convinient to buy and sell since you don't have to hang around varrock bank waiting for somenone to pop up.

 

Skillcapes for F2P.

 

Chairs and beds for characters to get a rest. How long can they stand?! And you are able to see them sit and rest in bed. So many beds, so little sleeping!

 

Conclude any existing quest storylines with a brilliant ending and open up new ones to carry the story of runescape forward!

[opportunity]

Delete Grand Exchange to stop inflation of GP

More trade limit. (max 300-500K)

Old Wilderness without RWT (I know this wont exist forever)

Remove useless and irrelevant skills like firemaking, woodcutting, fishing, fletching, and allow to share the XP gained to other non-combat skills. (smithing, mining...)

Make skillcapes f2p

paying for lifetime membership.

[dynastyfan0]

- remove all counter RWT measures

- keep the g/e but change it to more of a forum trade thread. You post your item and starting price and people post offers until a price is agreed on.

- old pking. I never did it but it was such a big part of what made runescape runescape.

- a lot of high level none tradable content that you get from both leveling skills and completing challenges like the fight caves.

- i would like to see a graphics overhaul that would perhaps require a disk purchase. It would be optional and would be the exact same game, different feel.
