GottaGetDownOnfriday Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cPpjZ7Z9SU0RuneScape developers Mod Moltare and Mod Nancy talking about the "Quiet Before the Swarm" and "A Void Dance" quest series. It's good timing too, as the "A Void Dance" quest and the "Conquest" turn-based 'training exercise for budding Void Knight officers' are both on the cards for a release in August. This is exciting! I like how they are starting to explore new ways of reaching their players. The developer video blog is way better than any text wall they put out. The new quest seems interesting. I look forward to seeing more into the void knight series. 65,280 to 99 fletching on 3-14-0940,405 to 99 woodcutting on 10-17-2009 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riptide Mage Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 Can't wait for when A Void Dance comes out in October. You make it sound like running through a few level 87 monsters is hard which it really shouldn't be at your level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acsstarlight Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 I love how his hair changes in the video. I hope they do more development diaries in video form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guthorm Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 I like the video dev blogs, but I wish they would post the link of the main website for us to see. [Guild Wars 2-In game screenshot, the MMORPG you are waiting for. Click for thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big_Stingman Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 At 1:24 seconds into the video, you see some new hitsplats. No more 0's? They have a "Miss" in white letters. And the hitsplats slowly move up and fade away. Looks like an interesting quest as well. Here's a pic. I highlighted it. Kinda hard to see, so go watch it in the video.

why2060 Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 Loved the vid, hopefully they'll do similar types of them in the future for other series. My RuneScape Blog. Click here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LatinII Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 Am I the only one that noticed that all of the faces are much more detailed? Mainly the eyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 WOAH LOOK AT HIS HAIR ITS LIKE MAGIC OR SOMETHING .... Meh, void knight quest series hasn't been good from the start in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wingless Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 Can't wait for when A Void Dance comes out in October. Ahahaa.. haha. ha. No. OT: Looks interesting, but the NPC eyes look really... scary :unsure: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Althalus Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 WOAH LOOK AT HIS HAIR ITS LIKE MAGIC OR SOMETHING .... Meh, void knight quest series hasn't been good from the start in my opinion. Haircuts...how do they work?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mio Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 Video Development Blogs = FTW. I hope to see alot more of these. :thumbsup: Offtopic: Mod Moltare is stuck in the 90's with his hair... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nurse_Renard Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 Definately looks like improved heads for characters, although I wonder when they'll actually be released... CLICK THE IMAGE TO GO TRY SHARK ATTACK DANGIT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will H Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 What's with Mod Moltaire's funky hairdo? Anyways, I think these videos compliment the written dev blogs nicely. They should just merge them and stick them on the main page. ~ W ~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Den Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 I love how his hair changes in the video. I hope they do more development diaries in video form. Same. Made me go wtf the first time I saw it. :P Am I the only one that noticed that all of the faces are much more detailed? Mainly the eyes. Nope, saw that too. Player eyes will be getting an update soon. Not sure about the rest of the player's face. Anyways, I think these videos compliment the written dev blogs nicely. They should just merge them and stick them on the main page. Agreed. ........::::: Rainy's YouTube Channel - Rainy's Twitter - Rainy's Facebook - Rainy's DeviantArt - Rainy's Tumblr - Rainy's Tip.It Profile :::::.........

Clan_Chat_Op Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 Look at 1:24... notice when they hit not only does it say "Miss" but beside some of the damage it shows a melee or range icon.... weird! I skill. If you skill you should join. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GottaGetDownOnfriday Posted August 3, 2010 Author Share Posted August 3, 2010 Look at 1:24... notice when they hit not only does it say "Miss" but beside some of the damage it shows a melee or range icon.... weird! I guess it is part of the new z-buffer system. Before, there was probably the chance of the new icons/text not being positioned correctly. I guess it will tell you what you hit, what style of attack you hit with, and if you hit at all. 65,280 to 99 fletching on 3-14-0940,405 to 99 woodcutting on 10-17-2009 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxshady Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 It's pretty awesome that the production quality of Jagex's videos keep going up. This video looked really professional. Loved the new hitsplats and faces too. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dupin Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 Lol, Mod Moltare looks like he's about 17 years old. And yes, his hair changes. The train puzzle looks interesting, as do the new "miss" things. I prefer the text blogs though; they seem to give a lot more information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obtaurian Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 Im still hoping we get Commander Korasi's sword. :pray: I'm :pray: ing for void armor with higher defense, a void melee weapon (Korasi's sword), a void ranged weapon, and an even bigger set effect when using full void + a void weapon. I think that'd be a pretty good reward for the series. To put it bluntly, [bleep] off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackeagle4 Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 The updated hitsplats look great! and will help determining whether you dont do damage, or simply miss. The icon showing what type of damage you take will be very usefull later on (when new bosses come out) because it will allow for better understanding as to what its using :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bows Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 I think a Video Dev Blog is a fantastic way to get players to look into what Jagex is up to when they aren't about to/are/in the aftermath of releasing an update. I really like the idea and I hope to see them continue this. With the video, we also see that Jagex staff members aren't just robots as some people seem to think they are; they are in fact people just like us. :thumbup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
