Wilderness and Free Trade will return - 17 January 2011

[Yay0siris]

There is just one question left unanswered: are you ready?

 

:huh:

[Sephy_]

Guess it's time to buy mems again.

[Golvellius]

2 weeks... obviously they been preparing.

Well I prepared over the weekend for this.

 

[Lep]

Yay free trade! Now we can buy expensive items for their 'real' street price! :lol:

[@Dan3HitU]

Lol, for the next 3 weeks the GE will have really weird updates (changes to prices).

[Ezkaton]

Wow.. system update timer is up.

Everyone at W99 GE is saying AMFG@@ FREE TRADE UPDATE@@@

 

:Facepalm

 

Now now, it is a very anticipated update. As 1 in 10 people are illiterate, that leaves a good 600,000 active Runescape members (estimated) that cannot read the front page.

 

LMFAO That is so brilliant, I'm siggying that xD

[Emmentail]

So now we know why content has been so shockingly poor recently, they've been working on this. :rolleyes:

[tripsis]

I'm not at all surprised :P

[Danqazmlp]

Yeah I can see that I'm going to be re-buying members in a week. Mainly because I don't want to miss out on a holiday item, but also because I want to see the updates with my own eyes. They have definitely been preparing this, but for how long I wonder. Just like any other update (but much more so), I'd recommend nobody even tries buying any items for about 3 weeks after the update. The prices really will need time to balance back out again.

2 weeks doesn't mean they've been working on it. It's not exactly a hard or time consuming thing to do, and MMG said he'd get the entire team working on it once it's official (now)

[Blyaunte]

Well -- one thing is for certain -- I am not going to wear ANYTHING of value ANYWHERE for at least a week. Just to make absolutely sure we don't end up with another 6/6/6 fiasco and another Durial321 wannabe ... :unsure:

 

In the meantime -- look at all the great stuff that's coming back:

 

• Unlimited begging;
  
• Free armour trimming;
  
• All you can eat scamming;
  
• Unlimited botting;
  
• Account sharing;
  
• Real World Trading;
  
• Gold farmers;
  
• and much much more!
  

 

YAY! -- I can't wait!!! :rolleyes:

Most of that stuff is already here now :P

QFT ^

[Alak_the_Great]

Well its pretty good in my opinion. I was actually glad when the Wild was revamped to include Revenents, but I found Player Killers were better because they at least had the power to show Mercy (but whether they would or not isn't relevant).

 

I hope drop trading will return, because I miss drop parties most of all. I always had a blast brightening up noobs days when they found they won a free Granite Shield just like that.

Free stuff plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

For the sake of argument -- if they're going to bring back "free trade" -- will they also bring back the "unlimited" quantities of items in General Stores and other similar places?

 

Will one, for example, be able to buy from an unlimited quantity of bronze throwing knives ...?

 

:unsure:

More importantly, will we be able to go back to the good old days of sitting at the Varrock general store waiting to snipe a bargin?

[Jehosaphat]

There goes the economy for the next 2 weeks. Good thing I've got a stock of Chins for using them Hati gloves with, and enough Slayer supplies to last me ~a year.

You think Jagex can pull a game-changing update out of their arse in two weeks?

 

Ok then..

[Bonez899]

I'm gonna laugh when they return the old wild with the new drop system. Lolol.

They said that it will be the old system. Not the new system when they posted the update.

okay, most of your points have some merit to them, but how do you explain this?

 

• Account sharing;

are you [developmentally delayed]ed?

I think that Jagex can because all they have to do is go back in their files, update the graphics and some of the code, fix some patches and so on and they have wildy and free trade ready.
