Bauke Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 Could just have been a beta that got leaked. Finetuning could be done in a later stage. Though that might just be wishful thinking.

Dirkmetal Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 Saw this pic linked in irc (from a top 100 player I won't name). Apparently he got it from a friend and I'm guessing it's related to the update Jagex promised about showing your total gameplay hours etc. What do you guys think, fake or legit?We could just ask were he got it. Is the player in the pic your friend, or is it of someone you don't know? Peopel are saying the icons are off, but that's not a good case. The icons are the same on the Highscores, and they probably share the same URL as the icons in the pic. So the icons would not change until they change the icon image files. (I hope I explained that clear enough.)Of course they could have the new icons with a different URL, so to change the icons they replace the URL.I'm just saying this because it is a good explanation of why they use the old icons.

The Runar Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 6. None of the font in the top half matches anything Jagex would use, really. Don't be so sure about that... I'm pretty sure that at least one game on FunOrb uses that font in the menus. The Runar's (OSRS) DIY blog - most viewed Blogscape blog ever!

n00bfiterpk6 Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 looks sweet.. about the inconsistancy's with capitalization and grammer... if this is infact real, it obviously isnt completed yet... There are still things in runescape which have these errors, even years after they where added to the game. Im sure if they where to release this all of that would be fixed...

Gwasha Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 I would love to have this in the game, just for the first 10 seconds of seeing how long I've played. But alas, Jagex isn't that cool to do something like that. :sad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sy_Accursed Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 Obviously a fake. Doesnt fit in with rs style, plus it is clearly a webpage and not an in-game interface. And they don't have pictures of these things. Not to mentioned incosintencies as Racheya pointed out.

Sy_Accursed Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 I didn't say the wrong person. I said the clear fact that under the my acitivtes feed you have all the I did... Under friends you have X did ... but for no apparent reason too "I killed a mithril dragon" are in there And as racheya rightly said upper fronts are wrong, symbols are outdated and while the you feed has time and date friends only has date. Equally the scrolls don't match the current rs webpage style, nor does using grey. And as I said looks distinctly like a webpage rather than an interface which means they'd be no screenies lurking around waiting for KB updates; it'd only be images off the page lurking.

Riemis Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 Hmm, any faker that would be able to make that has to be active on a faking forum, and on most of those the other fakers take off a lot of points of that fake for flaws.So someone that made that fake would obviously try to perfectionise it to make it look real :/ RuneScape Revolution (Dutch) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
z0diark Posted October 24, 2009 Author Share Posted October 24, 2009 Saw this pic linked in irc (from a top 100 player I won't name). Apparently he got it from a friend and I'm guessing it's related to the update Jagex promised about showing your total gameplay hours etc. What do you guys think, fake or legit?We could just ask were he got it. Is the player in the pic your friend, or is it of someone you don't know? Someone I know rather than a friend as such. When I asked where he got he simply said "friend" and I decided to not press him about it. As I said though he is a top 100 ranked player and doesn't seem the type to fake random stuff but who knows? With regard to the word 'interface' used in the title I believe it was a poor choice of wording, I don't think it would be an in-game feature, rather something you could access via logging in to the main website (like forums etc). Personally I do think that this is legitimate, it fits the style of the runescape website and I believe Jagex have promised us a feature telling us our total gameplay time and this looks like a good way of doing it, I agree with the person earlier who suggested that it looks as if Jagex are adding some kind of social networking element to runescape and I'm interested to see how it might turn out. I'm also wondering if the recent website login update is in some way connected to this potential new website feature, time will tell... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sk8erfreak Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 It's a fake, I could tell when I first saw it that it looked off. 1. Where did it come from? Something doesn't just leak so easily with no proof of where it's from. Remember the Objective system & MA teleport were both leaked through the RS website.2. The date of the dragon claw drop is yesterday - this would have been designed far more previously to now.3. The drop of the dragon claws seems odd (some dragon claws) and doesn't fit in with Jagex's style. Also the dragon claw drop has the full time & date, but the friend's abyssal whip drop just has the date.4. inconsistencies in capitalisation5.The old skill icons are being used - if they were making a graphical update with the page then you'd think they'd incorporate the newer icons (eg in the context sensitive mouse option, the new unreleased prayer symbol is used).6. None of the font in the top half matches anything Jagex would use, really. Not saying its real or fake, but I want to point a few possible explanations of these, if it were real. 1. Don't think that is a very good reason, there's always the chance someone at the RS HQ could be a bit mischievous.2. A leak could happen at any time...3. This is a good point, but then again they are separate lists, and it sort of makes sense for your personal list to give a few more details, but again.. it does seem to drop to legitimacy.4. True again, but not inconsistent with the same titles, or same bodies. Could just be early coding mistakes?5. As I pointed out before, those are the same icons as the hiscores, so it makes sense to use those. Also, the icons need to be small, and the ones in-game are too detailed to be re-sized like that without being messed up.6. Fonts are fonts, no reason they can't change it up every now and then. And as for the "a Abyssal Demon" instead of "an," It could be because the "I killed a" is a generic response and the monster name is the only changing variable in the sentence. So it will always be "I killed a 'X'" I am leaning more towards fake at this point, but I really want something like this! 136 Combat, 2290+ Skill Total Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@Dan3HitU Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 Looks quite legit, I've heard about this so-called "update" as well. The icons are also legit (same as hiscores, go look).

Not always true, loads of images are leaked via other services, more so now that Jagex are connecting with 3rd party websites.2. So? Maybe they were testing it yesterday and took a screenshot?4. Jagex always do this, even spelling mistakes sometimes.5. Skill icons aren't old, they're the official ones they're using on the hiscores, even at present date.6. Not true, Jagex have changed fonts a few times, even colours both in-game and out-of-game.

Lore Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 Obviously the stats section isn't close to Jagex's current style, let alone the new one they seem to be phasing in (objectives, summon left click option select, etc) However, no-one seems to have pointed out how stupid this is from a technical standpoint.This is talking about logging and displaying every single event for every user, including the drops from each monster, on top of serving individual RSS feeds for every account. Also, doesn't it seem like the friends events would be 'user action' instead of 'I action'.From a UI perspective, it makes no sense to have buttons for Settings and Compare with Friends in such prominent positions. You usually don't leave buttons the exact same style as the text boxes, either.

Outsanity Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 I'm going to say fake for the obvious few reasons as the outdated skill icons, the odd font and the great inconsistency with the date and time and capitalization. As people have said, it's easy to fake something like this, and until I get a URL linking to the RS official website, I won't buy this. |2,300+ Total|138 Combat|12 Lvl 99 Skills|99 Slayer| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big_Stingman Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 Doesn't look legit to me. Plus it says the rank of that person is 3495, which those aren't his skills. Why would Jagex BS the levels of someone if they have code written behind it, it should be able to retrieve the skills. They wouldn't just make a picture and make up their own levels...unless it's concept art. But even then, still looks fake to me. I guess he could have changed ranks...but overall it just seems to be lacking the officalness of Jagex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gandorf61 Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 I'm going to say it's a fake because when you really think about it, right now the high scores don't update in real time, they update once you log out of your account. So how would the feed for "I killed such and such monster" work? It would only make sense if the page was updated as your playing but think of how much resources this would take to be able to do that. Plus why would you need an RSS feed for your own activity? Add in the fact the grammatical errors and a grayish background (why not brown to match with the rest of the site?) it just seems like a really well done fake. Also at the top where it gives rank, and total level, and total experience, why are they white while the rest is a greyish transparent colour? Doesn't seem to really fit in.
