Wilderness and free trade vote! - Now Closed

[Skull]

That's a fake.

 

So either Jagex if [bleep]ing with you guys, or they've already decided to bring it back. Personally I hope they're [bleep]ing with the community because that would be hilarious trolling on their part.

[Methud]

eh?

no its fake stated a couple pages back

[eatrunearrow]

I voted yes... I may even come out of Runescape retirement if this happens!!

@anonymouse: You could of at least read the last few posts before you put that in. :rolleyes: Because we already dismissed it as fake. The pic isn't legitimate.

Wow eatrunearrow is back! what a legend.

That doesn't look fake at all.. Seriously, from a business standpoint misleading people into thinking that free trade has a chance of returning then ripping the carpet out from under them would be suicide.. This voting is fabricated with the only intent to cause a buzz and increase revenue. They are basically forced into adding free trade and some sort of wilderness at this point.

The main reason why people are saying 'no' right now is because we don't know exactly how they want to implement 'the good old days' of RuneScape back into the game. We can speculate, but they won't be removing everything, and I'm sure some things will be back in a slightly improved way; the 'blend' might turn out best for everyone. Certainly returning exactly back to how it was would hurt a lot of people who like the GE, who like to go into the wilderness with only Revs to worry about, and are familiar with the current system of item trading and pvp, etc.

 

The only problem I see now is the huge uproar that would occur if Jagex were to backtrack on what they've said (basically Yes to the old wildy and free trade coming back).

 

You're right. Jagex should have put out a FAQ on everything they would do if it went ahead beforehand, not a day afterwards.

Bottom left hand corner.

 

Everyone is overstating the meaning of this. Guinness uses this box to keep tabs on their record holders. Try scrolling through it...

 

Also, the article doesn't mention anything we don't already know:

-snip-

 

Why would Guinness have that article under "world records in the news" when jagex cleary stated in 15-16-179-62043182 that this is no record breaking event. I would [bleep]in die for this update but tis really sketchy.

 

Runescape is a world record. It's the most popular free online game. It's also got some pretty big news. What more do you want?

[Bloodstain]

eh?

 

fake

[Slayer_Jesse]

Im becoming more and more convinced this is some massive april Christmas fools joke...

[MstrMonopoly]

doesn't matter.

[Nopenope]

Could possibly be a BIGGER update than removing it in the first place.

 

I'm all for it, but I am curious on which updates they will keep, and which they will remove.

 

1- Graves

2- Wildy quests

3- GE limits

4- Corp beast's location

5- Lootshare/coinshare (brought in game because teams used to sell and split loots and free trade removed that)

6- Assist system (brought in game mostly because of 2x nat runners)

 

There are more I can't think of off the top of my head, but surely this will be MORE of a game changer than removing it in the first place.l

Wow eatrunearrow is back! what a legend.

 

u mad bro?

[Wessan]

I think if the vote passes we will see a good 3-4 months before the change actually occurs

I would hope so, because otherwise that would completely confirm our suspicions that Jagex have already decided to do it anyway. They wouldn't develop something this big just to throw it away. There's a lot of work to be done applying old concepts to newer stuff in the game.

[Methud]

^ makes a lot of sense so true.

[HerHero]

Man, I've had two accounts, one 1900 (before summon and dung) skill total and the other 2100+ skill total, lost both, one perm banned but I'll probably start up again if this is all implemented.

Mod Valkryie posted on the Swedish forums (Translated the forum): "Latest news: You will have the opportunity to vote "no" tomorrow :))

 

Too late. Someone already voted for me.

[NukeMarine]

Wow, a poll with only one response, with limited options on what a "yes" vote means? Color me excited. Although I voted yes, I think there's better ways to do this.

 

1. Don't bring back the "Wilderness". What people want is a "Keep what you kill" system like the old wilderness. As such change some of the PvP servers to that rule. If your only reason for wanting the old wildy back is to kill players that don't want to pk then your opinion means nothing to me.

 

2. Bring back free trade, but not real world trading. I think the system that lets your build merit in your character for more lax trading is the best concept. If your only reason for wanting free trade is to buy the best gp off e-bay then your opinion means nothing to me.

 

I'm kind of interested to see the results. Just limit the "wilderness" to the PvP servers and be reasonable with free trade.

People are suppose to get killed by pkers when they go into the wild. Just saying.

[Big_Stingman]

I like the free trade, but the wildy is going to suck hard for clues now... :( Revs were cake compared to PKers.

Weren't clue scrolls supposed to be challenging?

Which is why the old wild should come back...
