foursideking Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Lol...f2p should be able to go into p2p, but shouldn't be able to interact/do anything in it. Sure, it wouldn't help them, but hey, f2p is suppost to be boring, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miner_Guy Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 I have been f2p all of my life and i think first when they do an update for f2p they should fix magic and maybe smithing plus the dungeoneering rewards before they do prayer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shazarabbit Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 There isn't enough dragonhide in the market already? Point is if you make one dragonhide craftable, then everyone wants all the rest. It won't work. It's not like it's that expensive for a set anyway. Proud Tip.It Moderator December 07 - October 2009Proud TETAU Member 2006 - 2007 <3"I had a standing agreement with god.

Sir_Squab Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 Here's what I mean: People know p2p is better. However, some people are still f2p despite this. Why? It is not up to us to judge or even to know, but considering that fact there's certainly no point in reminding them of this fact, since all it does it lead the discussion off-topic and fails to answer any question or contribute to any discussion started by said player. It's just how I feel on the matter, sorry for bringing it away from the main point about green dragons. In business, companies don't care why you can't pay, just that you aren't paying (insurance/banks notwithstanding). Whenever this discussion is brought up, I attack the fact that the person does not/can not pay for membership, without regard as to why they don't/can't. At the end of the day, you are using a service, and "I can't pay/don't want to pay" is not a valid excuse for why a company should release something for free, ever. Compared to Western MMOs, Jagex is very giving. Find most MMOs that are freemium and none of them offer the same experience Runescape does, without the big stick beating you about the face to subscribe. I mentioned Asian free to play MMOs in an earlier post, and I want to expand upon that. When my MMO website was still in its infancy, I managed to get a talk in with a few Asian MMO publishers (many of these are republished in the West by companies like Frogster and Hanbitsoft). One of them told me that the longer an account is active without buying in-game tokens, the more likely they are to be banned for minor infractions. Why? Because after two years of playing without paying for service, the company decides you are no longer a prospective buyer, and therefore a liability rather than a potential customer. One of them, when I asked if they were worried the player would quit rather than start a new account, said that a good percentage of players (mainly ones with guilds) would set up a new account, and would actually start buying cash shop items (generally double exp and gear) to catch up to their old toons. As for the ones that quit entirely? "[bleep] 'em" is the response. You'll notice I keep away from using certain catchphrases that a lot of members use. Giving free players green dragonhide isn't going to dilute the value of membership, nor is anyone going to say "hey, green dragonhide is free. Guess I don't need this membership *cancel*," because the update is too small to have that any kind of overall effect on the game other than "hey, there's some better armor for rangers/mages/melee hybrids." What I am concerned with is how badly maintained the green dragons are already, with enough bots on members worlds camping them as it is, without a hundred more worlds filled with botters bringing down green dragonhide prices. I suggest you take a look at my website, because despite what you may take from this thread, I've always been a major supporter of subscription games going freemium ala Runescape (in fact, it's something of a highlight), and have a growing database with the purpose of helping people pay as little as possible for their games. I imagine even harder to believe is I have an initiative starting in February called "How Free Can You Be?" where I will be looking at various triple-a MMOs, as well as putting up interviews, with the sole purpose of finding MMOs with the best content for absolutely free. So perhaps this is just me spending far too much of my time in a business frame of mind, but I do have issues with how this would imbalance the green dragonhide market. not going to bother reading that but im guessing ur just argument is u want us to pay.. which i completely understand.. just remember this is a "rant" forum so expect some pretty wild and far fetched arguments and topics being posted and discussed.. i honestly feel as though this topic is completely reasonable.. I was too lazy to read your original post, so I'll just assume your some stupid whiny F2P'er who's too cheap for membership but wants everything members offers anyways. L2PAY OR GTFO! Note: if I had actually read your first post, I might've tried to post a less obnoxious and more intelligent remark, but I'm too lazy to read. Honestly, how much I like this idea is directly proportional to how much dragon bones go down if it happens. Conversely, how much I dislike this update is directly proportional to how much dragon bones go up if it happens. Squab unleashes Megiddo! Completed all quests and hard diaries. 75+ Skiller.

unkn0wnwarrior Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 f2p needs nothing the game has ran smoothly for years.By constantly evolving, yes. Even F2P has been evolving, just not in the same ways as P2P. New things and revamped old things are what keep people interested. The longer F2P is interesting, the better.

Wasup190 Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Yew Shortbow/Yew Longbows, Rune Arrows, Teletabs, Snare, Splitbark armor, Fire wave (but the max hit be adjusted to 180, not 200), and Monkfish.I am P2P, and I prefer to PK F2P because I find it more balanced.

Bonesack Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 I think F2P is missing some boss monsters, since i think the strongest monster in f2p are Lesser Demons, which don't take ANY effort or skill to kill, Think there needs to be a boss which can atleast hit 400's in f2p.

Oh, and revenants when the wildy comes back sounds pretty dangerous too. They still retain their 3 combat styles (without freeze/teleblock though) and are located in a PvP area. Sounds dangerous to me.

Kata_Phfract__the_slayer Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Shortcut Improvements Finally, this month, we aim to update many shortcuts so that they no longer require you to carry an item to use them, and are unlocking a few to add to the free game. Free-to-play will now be given access to the River Lum canoes, which no longer require a hatchet to make. However, using high-quality axes will speed up the process. Members with Construction levels up to 51 will also be able to build hidey-holes (at crossbow shortcuts) and rope racks (at eyries) in the following locations: win. I'm a Brony and proud of it!

foursideking Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 I'm gonna toss an interesting one up: giving f2p access to monks/granite armor. They wouldn't be able to obtain any of'm off drops, it'd be more like what they did with maples pre-dungeoneering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Youmu Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Why can't F2P stake more than 40K? :angry:Given that free play can already trade an unlimited amount, it doesn't make sense to put a cap on staking.
