0ne_time Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 Well, Jagex has said that they were going to release carpentry way back in 2002. Then, last year, they said again when rs2 started that they will make a new skill called carpentry within 1 year's time. None of Jagex's promises of carpentry turned out to be true. When the mini quest in trai banu came out, there was a rumor that the mohagany and teak logs were for carpentry, which would be coming out soon. It was declared true by a few Jagex staff members. But, once again, around 4 months after the release(I may be wrong, if so, tell me) of the miniquest, carpentry is still not released. Do YOU beleive that carpentry will ever come out? If so, when do you think it will come out? As for me, I think it will come out in about a few months, but then again, i thought the same way when they added carpentry to the stats page while playing rs. In this post, I don't mean to say that Jagex are liars, I am saying this SOLELY for the purpose of knowing your opinions. PLEASE, NO FLAMING OR SPAMMING. Thanks, One time P.s. Urza, please don't say I'm one of the many tip.it chars that this person made in order to spaM, I'm sure he or she won't make a post this big to spam. ~Joined RS December 2001~Retired Mid-2007 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n64jive Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 IMO carpentry sounds stupid, why not just simply add it on as part of crafting...its practically the same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SenorTamale Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 i don't really see glassblowing or cutting a gem similar to hammering nails into a board :P but they might release it at christmastime as a sort of 'gift' thing. who knows though. and about the actual skill, it could go either way.. being another farming or something else. but what i think might work is a minigame sort of thing, involving puzzles or minigames or w/e which you do while doing carpentry, changing based on your level and what you're carpenting; it'd be interesting seeing how quickly people like zezima would level up when you actually have to think :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0ne_time Posted November 13, 2005 Author Share Posted November 13, 2005 IMO carpentry sounds stupid, why not just simply add it on as part of crafting...its practically the same thing. You have a point there. But carpentry is using wood to build things. Crafting is often used in a much smaller scale than carpentry. Then again, since dragonhide is cut with a knife to make objects and it's called crafting, since in carpentry you often used knives and saws in the time RS is based in, which i think is Middle Ages, are both similar. It would make sense to do that, but probably, Jagex will just add it as another skill to increase the amount of skills that members have that f2p don't, considering it's going to be a p2p only skill. That's if they want more members. i don't really see glassblowing or cutting a gem similar to hammering nails into a board :P but they might release it at christmastime as a sort of 'gift' thing. who knows though. and about the actual skill, it could go either way.. being another farming or something else. but what i think might work is a minigame sort of thing, involving puzzles or minigames or w/e which you do while doing carpentry, changing based on your level and what you're carpenting; it'd be interesting seeing how quickly people like zezima would level up when you actually have to think :lol: In that case, it is different, but when you compare cutting gems with carving dragonhide into armour seems alot like the difference that you pointed out. ~Joined RS December 2001~Retired Mid-2007 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin_ Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 My opinion: it sucks you don't even know what you'l have to do to raise carpentry? you might find it fun , don't say it sucks before you even tried it. i dunno , i think it will be kinda like farming , 1 week people will train that skill so hard , then slowly it will die , like farming , you nearly see no people at the plantations. Some people dream of success, while others make it happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Triplets_KGB Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 Well, Jagex has said that they were going to release carpentry way back in 2002. Then, last year, they said again when rs2 started that they will make a new skill called carpentry within 1 year's time. None of Jagex's promises of carpentry turned out to be true. Firstly, they implemented carpentry into the game, but they felt it wasnt the right time for it, so they pulled it. Secondly, Yes, they said they'd release it, but priorities get shifted around. It happens! Thirdly...They have been working on it for a long time, and have told the players that they will release it at the end of this year, ie December. If December passes without Carpentry being released, all of us are going to be extremely angry, but lets wait ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShadowFire Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 The idea has potential, but it all depends on the execution really. Jagex tried something different with farming, making it so you are not just stood in front of a tree/rock/fishing spot/stall just constantly clicking, but the problem is it's just too darn complicated and the only way to farm efficiantly is to have alot of teleport runes. With carpentry I'm hoping they make it a bit like Fletching but requiring you to do a little more. So if you wanted to make an chair you'd need cut and shape each part of the chair (4 legs, base and back) using a chisel and knife, then take it to an anvil and hammer it together with nails then buy some varnish and add it to the chair. Then you can sell it or use it in your house. They really need to start telling us about what their plans are for carpentry, that way they won't release it and have more whining because no one likes it. I still can't really see it appearing this side of the new year really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lagatag Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 Carpentry will probably be just like farming, so I hope it doesn't come out. If it is liek an addition to crafting/smithing then sure, just like I hope summoning, if it ever comes out, is an addition to magic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sugaholic Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 My opinion: They need to release it. It's been long enough. Planks and tiles have been out for Andrew knows how long... Used to be on the skill list (way back in the days of rsc)... But, whatever... I'm personally against the POHs, they seem like they'd be a waste. They might make them good, but we'll see. I'm also against making carpentry a seperate skill. It basically is a mix of crafting, smithing, and fletching, and therefore should be additions to those skills, as opposed to its own seperate skill. Just like necromancy or summoning, that should be added to magic. Though, you'd have to learn how to make things through quests, mini-quests, or whatever... Like, a 99 smither, crafter, and fletcher couldn't make everything right away, they'd need to unlock the ability to do it. (Like darts and claws, and the ancient magicks, quests were required for them). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albosky Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 I think carpentry will be a complete waste , it doesnt fit the game what do carpernters do? they build houses/furniture/etc gee i can make a chair , but oops i cant sit down in this game wow i can make a bed, oh well cant sleep anymore sweet i built myself a house! but i cant actually DO anything in here I like to fart silently but deadly in movie theatersArd Choille says (11:41 PM):I wouldn't dare tell you what to do m'dear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silver24-7 Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 they also promised POH before the end of this year. i should look up the behind the scenes thats in. I'm Finally 99 mage ^^ (and cooking...) :PSilver24-7 - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RebelAssassin Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 i can see it being a new money making skill. just 1 piece has to have a good high alch price and it will be as good as fletching (IF the making process is as simple) if not then it will be a waste of time www.PETAkillsanimals.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suggestive_winks Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 they said they were gonna release farming,carpentry and pohs out at same time but they had probs with the pohs so they're taking longer than expected so the released farming early, but carpentry should come out with pohs. lol i'm ever hopeful it will be this year :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teh_soldier Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 to me it sounds pretty simple, use the nails with the board when youv got a hammer in your inventory and hey pressto! youv made a boat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDark Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 it's probably gonna have the basic principle of farming, you go to a patch put some wood down and start building. no one will ever see what you've accomplished unless you post it because it'll probably be like farming where you don't see what other peoples patches look like :roll: . I personally wanted carpentry to come out for the last 2 years or whatever. but every time that they said it was going to come out rolls around I never see a new carpentry skill :? hopefully they might come out with it in december ( last date they said was late this year ). so who knows... :? -Daddyhammer TheDark or Kevinnv on other forums.

We definetly need some better community stuff like chairs you can sit at as well as the random adventures they promised. (I got a taste of WOW and I keep on thinking how Jagex could do stuff similar to that). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
