gryphon618 Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 I'm gonna repost this with a couple of edits because its been ignored I know, f2p doesn't deserve updates. However, there are some things I believe f2p should get, (that no one would really pay for) like skillcapes. Not better skillcapes, or equal skillcapes, but lesser skillcapes. There should be 2 types of skillcapes- F2p and P2p. P2p remains the same. The f2p ones will all be given by either the Wise Old Man or the Guildmaster (probably the Wise Old Man so that pures don't have to do quests giving unwanted xp to get it.) The capes will be shaped like the P2p Achievement capes, but they would be a solid color, without the logo on it. The smithing will be a darker color than the mining, hitpoints won't be white like prayer but a light-grayish-purple color, (thats on the side of the untrimmed one) and magic would be a midnight blue, darker than the regular blue cape, while construction is the same color. No emote is given. However, F2p pays 50k for their "achievement cape" Does this sound good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenshinjapan Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 Why csn't f2p have a smallpox outbreak :thumbsup: . But seriously, I'm not gonna even try to explain why they don't deserve it because the only thing they come up with is "well we cant block adds so when we click on them jagex gets .01cent". You gotta be freaking kidding me -.- YOU! ATTEND TET EVENTS! CLICK HERE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tintin17 Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 more bank space, a really challenging quest and skill capes :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unkn0wnwarrior Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 The way I see it, it can have no stat at all... trust me, those of us who've earned the right to wear it would appreciate anything. I agree. Take all stats bonuses away and I wouldn't even notice/care. As long as I can use the emote, I'm happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nl98 Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 F2p should get everything members do as we actually pay by not using software to block the adverts on top of the f2p play screens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxdout4life Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 F2p should get everything members do as we actually pay by not using software to block the adverts on top of the f2p play screens.nope maybe you pay rougely $1 a month and actully you dont even pay, you just look and jagex gets payed for the ads and with that money they keep f2p alive, p2p has no problems they pay $5 a month compaired to the rougly $1 that f2p doesnt even pay.

TheLlama79 Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 What does f2p need? A strong monster worth fighting... Our best challenge is the greater demon hut in the wildy... Blah.

dknghtshadow Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 The only reason I'm f2p is because my mom cancelled the credit card that runescape was on... so in the meantime (while I'm making a pking account), here's a few suggestions: A) Better mage robes/Teleblock spell. Seriously guys, the mage robes that f2p have... suck. Our best magic setup is: Blue hat/Blue robe/Ammy of magic/Elemental staff, which only gives +25 magic bonus. Members have full mystic, which gives +45 without ammy or staff. Perhaps Jagex can give us some kind of leg wear that give +7 or something? It would improve our defence a bit and make for faster kills as mage. And while you're at it, open up the teleblock spell as well for f2p. I'm sure it'll give a lot of people an incentive to go for 85 magic... :mrgreen: B) BANK SPACE!!!!!!!!!!! Oh man, this idea has been tossed around forever. I'm currently carrying a junkload of useless stuff with me on my main because I can't bank it! Give us even 3 rows more of bank space and we'll be extremely happy. Please? C) A new minigame. Face it guys, after all the quests are done, there's only 2 things for f2p to do... raise skills and pk. By adding a new minigame (perhaps opening up duel arena?) to the mix, it'll give f2p something else to do in the meantime. pm me at onipaladin if you like the suggestions, but be warned, I'm not on too often... ~So pick a BC date, cause you're history.~ heh, welcome to the world of noobscape, its made up of purescape, autoscape, and sadscape, it makes up 60% of all of runescape :Feel free to add onipaladin ingame.

smobo Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 I think free players should be able to do more things with paying members. That way the game is more fun for the people that can't pay the $5 a month, and so the people who are too cheap are more likley to pay. F2p people should be able to go into p2p people's houses. To check them out and do some of the activities. This will be fun and show the f2p people what membership is like. Jagex should focus more on making the game fun, instead of making the game more profitable. If everyone leaves because the game is boring, no profits will be made. Also as stated many times before: Capes of achievment symbolize a great acheivment, and should be given to anyone who can achieve it, not just members.

ChickyBee32 Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 I'm not worried about losing my benefits. It's called 'getting what you pay for'. I pay my car insurance so that I am covered in case of an accident, not so my neighbour is covered in case of an accident. I pay my mortage so I can keep a roof over my families head, not to keep a roof over my friends head. I pay my membership fee so I can access the extra stuff, not so that someone with entitlement issues can access the extra stuff. Those of us paying membership fees help provide the money so that the game can keep being updated. Nothing in life is for free and you get what you pay for. Although having said that, I agree that the skill capes should be available to everyone. It's a huge achievement, especially when the non members have less items/quests/events etc to help boost them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_god_of_soup Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 i would like to see more bank space. not like members, but like 3 or 4 more rows of it.... also[i know this won't happen, but training with a rune scimitar on lesser demons compared to whipping stuff at pest control is annoying]like dragon weapons.... know it won't happen, just saying =p.

InsaneChef Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 To be honest, I think there's 3 main reasons why Jagex doesn't update free members as much: Members complain (Yes, you're paying, but that doesn't mean I don't want to, I just can't. Good bye, full stop, end of. Easily abusive (making new accounts for macroing, forum trolling etc.) Members complain. I don't think improving what they already have is so bad (such as more bankspace) But yeah, 10 more bank spaces would be awesome, i'd solely use them on randoms to get the emotes.
