captianant Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 Well, how often does jagex release an update that doesn't cause a major bug? About half the time? That's a terrible track record for a "major" games development company and makes massive skepticism reasonable Sodb ForumStop thinking. It's Runescape.

Zantareous Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 For those complaining about "If this is the biggest update of the year..." it is better worded on their Twitter account: We've just announced #RuneScape's biggest update of the year so far: Clan Citadels! http://t.co/GlkHsCT(https://twitter.com/#!/RuneScape/status/86476365674713088) I think it's an awesome update regardless... So much hate. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saradomin_Mage Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 So far... that'll do, I guess.They do need to re-word the "We've seen some big updates this year", though.

We have seen, though.Support for clans?Removing PK worlds and returning the economy to what it should be, whilst keeping the grand exchange?

Especially from the last 3 months. To be a pedant "some" merely means more than 1.2 apples is still some apples. But yeah top of my head wild+free trade would be 1, nex for 2, clan support for 3, the death mechanic changes is a possible fourth and the prayer ashes/skill urns for a 5th. 4th and 5th are kinda small in themselves but had big impact/implications to game play tactics and training methods so big in that way.Then jagex probably counts Livid farm, artisians workshop, the new capes as "big" too. So I'd say theres been atleast 3-5 big updates this year; but in jagex math probably 8ish Operation Gold Sparkles :: Chompy Kills :: Full Profound :: Champions :: Barbarian Notes :: Champions Tackle Box :: MA RewardsDragonkin Journals :: Ports Stories :: Elder Chronicles :: Boss Slayer :: Penance King :: Kal'gerion Titles :: Gold Statue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blutters Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 Sounds massive. I just hope it can look anywhere near as good as the picture... I wonder, if building the citadel to the highest tiers is based off of members' skill levels, what's to stop maxed players from whoring out their totals? This would just seem to go contrary to their requirement of having to have 5 members stay at all times or rather, having permanent members.I'd ask this on the thread but it looks as though she isn't answering questions anymore...

I imagine that you would end up having to 'downgrade' your citadel if the levels of your clan drop below the required amounts for a certain tier. Alas, this is another reason why the clan system can't cope with multi-clanning. People can [bleep] out their levels all they like, but it's probably only going to matter if those people actually stay in the clan. EDIT: I'm really hoping that this update will give us some useful content for Construction between 75 and 99. Being a show of wealth is fun and all, but this is a good opportunity to add some meat to that end of the skill. ~ W ~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember them saying a while back, maybe even a year ago, that they couldn't do much with POHs because they were pushing their limits as it was. I wonder if this update's code can be retrofitted to improve POHs a bit? I'm like a hot mess, but without the alcohol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blutters Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 They confirmed no to both of the above on the RSOF thread already. Some [cabbage], huh? Not gon lie. I went through pages 1-50 reading all the yellow posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brainymidget Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 Jagex said that Citadels are 4 map squares big. For comparison, Soul wars is 3 map squares wide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlowinRedM Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 4 map squares as in area or as in each side? The corp beast, is, well, just a corp beast.

HunterDexter Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 So practically speaking, almost all coding and graphics were devoted to making this update? Shows why we haven't gotten any standing out content lately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shows why we haven't gotten any standing out content lately. So much for Clans don't impact other players who don't clan. Yeah, I get this. It's like MA. It's not that it's really good update, just something different and interesting for the developers to code. I just hope all the work can be put to use somewhere else.

brainymidget Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 4 map squares as in area or as in each side? They just said 4 map squares big, so I would assume area.They said soul wars is 3 wide, so I would assume it is 3 x 1. Citadels are probably 2 x 2. Here's soul wars map for comparison.

HunterDexter Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 Also, I hope they learn to re-use some models and stuff, we're seeing way too much different interfaces for example, when there are already good ones out there in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is just part of the hyping process. However I do believe that this has the potential to be a fun update. "I think that if the devil doesn't exist, then man has created him.
