HunterDexter Posted December 28, 2009 Share Posted December 28, 2009 Given the next 2 weeks without updates, maybe it'll be then. 2 weeks without updates means they better have something great on deck. Or they're having a great holiday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hajutze Posted December 28, 2009 Share Posted December 28, 2009 Tbh, I'd rather them improve the existing skills, rather than adding another one. But if they do add another skill, I hope it isn't as stupid as summoning was.I hope the keyword is Was in that sentence, because if you don't know how good summoning is, then you're missing out.I meant how bad it was when it came out.it didnt took them long to make it good .. like what few weeks ?

Neos_Matrix Posted December 28, 2009 Share Posted December 28, 2009 I'd be laughing if Jagex released the skill, as MEMBERS only.Just like all the other attempts to make this game better, and have ended in riots <_< Barrows Items: 1x Dharok's Platelegs, 1x Veracs's Plateskirt, 1x Dharok's Greataxe, 2x Torag's Platelegs, 1x Akrisae's War Mace, 1x Ahrim's Robeskirt, 3x Akrisae's Robetop, 1x Guthan's Warspear, 1x Akrisae's Robeskirt, 1x Torag's Helm, 2x Verac's Brassard, 1x Karil's Pistol Crossbow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big_Stingman Posted December 28, 2009 Share Posted December 28, 2009 I think it would be nice to have a skill that allowed for more community interaction to train it. Not that you would have to train it that way, I just always found it lots more fun doing things with other people then by myself. I'm not talking about woodcutting together either, I mean a skill that really used teamwork. I think it'd be interesting, but most people would probably complain. Heck everyone is going to complain regardless of what skill Jagex releases or how good/bad it is. Sad... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or they're having a great holiday.Seems like quite a long holiday. Plus a lot of them still have to be there working. It's not the kind of thing you can leave to a couple of people to "take care of" while you're gone. And anything that would have been released during this holiday would've been done long before the holiday. It kinda sucks this whole thing.

The days, not the vacations. Oh, and my original point was if they take two weeks off, they better come back with something good. And I don't mean more hairstyles and another Leprachaun makeover.

Den Posted December 28, 2009 Share Posted December 28, 2009 i'm not sure why people still mention sailing.. its really not funny, infact those posts should be marked as spam. Some people arent able to move on. They like living in the past. Whenever I see a sailing referance in a post, i just skip the whole post because I cant take the person seriously. ........::::: Rainy's YouTube Channel - Rainy's Twitter - Rainy's Facebook - Rainy's DeviantArt - Rainy's Tumblr - Rainy's Tip.It Profile :::::.........

But if they do add another skill, I hope it isn't as stupid as summoning was. I think improvement on a new skill is definitely better than adding a new one, but since I am F2P, I am very eager to see what they come up with. Me and my friend been guessing at it for so many months trying to figure out what kind of skill they would introduce (Medieval based, since its the time frame Runescape based on). Of course on 2nd thought, too many intermix with modern technology as well. On a side note, I been hearing rumors that they are going to release it in July 2010? Is that a set date? Or just a speculation. a happy Runescaper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michel555555 Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 there was another topic a month or two ago about a twitter post where jagex said that the new skill would begin with the letter b. [spoiler=click you know you wanna]Me behave? Seriously? As a child I saw Tarzan almost naked, Cinderella arrived home from a party after midnight, Pinocchio told lies, Aladin was a thief, Batman drove over 200 miles an hour, Snow White lived in a house with seven men, Popeye smoked a pipe and had tattoos, Pac man ran around to digital music while eating pills that enhanced his performance, and Shaggy and Scooby were mystery solving hippies who always had the munchies. The fault is not mine! if you had this childhood and loved it put this in your signature! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Youmu Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 In my opinion, F2P shouldn't be getting a new skill. Instead, they should be given one that existed from P2P. Fletching should be the one given. F2Pers should only be able to fletch bows up to maple and arrows up to adamant, and there should be a flax field in Falador. Though, I don't care if a new skill is given or not. I just hope it's a good one...

Zachneap Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 The jagex mod who made that statement said something along the lines of " wow i never knew how far my comment would go, I wonder what ideas you would've come up with if i had said v" though. Its inconclusive at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert_R Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 I was really hoping the new skill would be one giant money sink (useful at the same time but still a huge money sink) but then I realized it was supposed to be f2p and I doubt they would add a huge money sink that's also a f2p skill <_< Oh well hopefully it will be a very nice skill anyway.

Assume Nothing Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 (edited) Let's see, a new skill, something massive that's been brewing for around 1 and a half - 2 years, something new, something unique... Hmmm.. I was discussing this in the hyt cc earlier, and it seems that there isn't much more to be covered on RuneScape, except maybe some form of transportation. The thing is, Sailing CAN actually be a good skill, it can unlock new land and quests, monsters and weapons unique to the new land, expanding RuneScape even further. Heck, even combine theiving AND sailing for a piracy minigame (as in, theiving piracy, NOT software piracy). I was thinking Necromancy - But wouldn't that fall under Summoning? Or not? Could be a great way to unravel things in quests, reawake the dead >.>. Can come in very very useful, if executed correctly, but I guess, if it has to be f2p, then that's ruled out. Engineering - Sounds a little too close to smithing in my opinion, throw that idea out. EDIT Astronomy - Interesting, but in a Medievil based game, what the hell would you do with all the crap about stars? Throw a spell at it? Flight - Good idea... can't think of how to execute it. Be like mounts on WoW except on RuneScape? Making Explosives (Can't think of the name for that profession) - Could be combined alongside combat, spices things up. Milking - Lol joke skill but an idea nonetheless. Level 95 - Corporeal Beast. Level 99 - PvP System!! Spy(ing?) - Somewhat like theiving, except with spying? I dunno. Just an idea. Readd Archeology - Nahhh... Other Ideas - It's bloody 5:46am and I haven't slept yet, Gnight and I'll edit post later Edited December 29, 2009 by dzihouchan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K4ylan Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 Well, it starts with the letter b, that's all we know for sure. Bootlegging?

Tim Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 "RS News Archive is your friend" Its been said: YES, Its F2PIt is NOT sailing/archwont be out until Mid 2010 and apparently does have a large role in F2P/P2P.

strilmus Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 It'd be pretty funny if it turns out to be something that has already been done when it comes out, though. No use trying to think of it if it hasn't happened yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n00bfiterpk6 Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 Well, it starts with the letter b, that's all we know for sure. boring skill? you repeat the same clicking on the same things for a couple hundred hours to get a pretty new skill cape to show off to your internet friends? Archeology - Interesting, but in a Medievil based game, what the hell would you do with all the crap about stars?

@Dan3HitU Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 Ever since Mod MMG became the CEO earlier in the year, he has said that one of his goals is to revitalize F2P and breathe new life into it. For months now he has also said that the new skill WILL be F2P. No one really knows what the skill will be but what we do know is that it is NOT sailing.He also says an enormous amount of bs (if anyone else were to do it, they'd be sacked) which other staff members have to set-right.

@Dan3HitU Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 If it's combat based (again) I suppose I'll have to start playing again. [-- DYNAMIC SIGNATURES FOR RUNESCAPE 3 & OLDSCHOOL 2007 RUNESCAPE --] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leoo Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 Yes, the skill might be F2P. However, there will probably be more content accessible to members like all current F2P skills such as Woodcutting and Fishing. I'm hoping it's a resource or a character development skill rather than a skill where the resources required to make items are more expensive than the finished item itself like Herblore and Smithing.

Zachneap Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 How long have they been working on the skill? If its combat based then because a vast amount of runescape is based on combat. It would take them a long time to bugfix and balance and such. To be honest i think its going to be a processing skill. But The results of the skill will be untradeable.
