Jehosaphat Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 Wait.... This is the entirety of an update? A potion and a 'rework' of prayer points so that they match the constitution changes without changing prayer flashing? Am disappoint, Jagex. Am disappoint. The technical difficulty of reworking the prayer system actually makes this a pretty big deal as far as development time goes, to be fair. Would you rather they didn't do anything this week at all?Yes, actually, I would rather they didn't do anything at all and pushed this update into the 'In other news' section of something larger. And really, while the technical difficulty of reworking the prayer system may have been great, the practical applications of them doing so seem to be rather... small.

Ginger_Warrior Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 It's not something to go crazy over but not every update can be as decisive as that anyway. We always knew we were never looking at the next GWD, in terms of a game-changing shift in focus. It was only ever going to be a new prayer potion with a couple of crops to farm. The BTS implied nothing else. | Favourite Game Music | Last.fm | HYT Friend Chat Rules | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Den Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 This was 1 weeks worth of updates? ... ... ... Ahahahahahahahahaha. So this month looks to be set up as Prayer Potion + BXPW for one week, ROTM for one week, New Loyalty Items for one week and a no update week.I guess if ROTM is really awesome, I'll be satisfied. I haven't had time to be on much the past weeks anyway, so I have a little pile of new content still.This update could very well have been a side-update, like Constitution was to Shattered Heart. ........::::: Rainy's YouTube Channel - Rainy's Twitter - Rainy's Facebook - Rainy's DeviantArt - Rainy's Tumblr - Rainy's Tip.It Profile :::::.........

Quyneax Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 er why is divine better >.>? No longer always rounds the prayer drain up to 1 point (10 now) so it generally uses less prayer.Also more prayer per inventory space = more divine damage reduction per inventory space = efffectively more health per inventory space. With just a small bit of stackable healing (ss, uni) elysian already beats divine purely space-wise, and this update slightly favours divine.

Pete Party Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 Funny how Jagex one time gives a few big updates in one month and then people expect a few big updates at least every Tuesday. I remember updates were scarce and to be loved no matter what because it was a gift from above. No matter what mistakes, there were always positive words. Now they update the game add a potion and owh it was not good enough, where is our quest of this storyline that storyline....blablabla. Must be hard working for Jagex for almost 10 years and hear mostly complaining from your playerbase. Well they adapted to that, locked themselves away from most communication making themselves able to channel out all complaints but with that also goes away positive criticism. Well at least I know one person that appreciates every update. ^late night post, don't hate me if im absolutely wrong.Just know that I support their updates but there are many things to improve on it, and obviously raging doesn't help anymore.We rage at jagex for not getting rid at bots, we still have bots... Me and the wise old man go way back.... he was a foolish boy back then. My crystal armour idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On your side note: Great idea when they can't think of any new content to make. On the contrary, Jagex's updates to Runescape have reached their original (and I mean original) goal of coming out with weekly updates. They have become quite regular and really spoil players today who then become anxious and mad when they don't see an update. Whether or not the updates are deemed good or lame is a completely different story, but I have maintained in past threads and will say again that I wish we would have more sporadic updates that affect the game in a more significant way. That way, Jagex could put time and effort into updates rather than spitting them out like turds for the players to complain about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stonewall337 Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 i cant believe people are mad at them fixing flashing. its obvious prayer wasnt supposed to work like that.Ever heard of emergent gameplay? Can you say that skele mummies were designed for the express purpose of being chinned/barraged? Same with rock lobsters? Can you say cave crawlers were designed to be farmed for effigies? How about 15-20 minute dungeons? You see, you can't prove that any of those were designed for the purpose which RS players use them for, nor can you even really argue with any credibility that they were designed as such. The fact that players use them for these methods is emergent gameplay. A bug is different. The infamous PKing bug, for instance, or finding 200m in your bank magically. Thus, you can't say "obviously it wasn/wasn't designed for this" without having an authority, or some credibility. Its not obvious. Heck, you CAN still prayer flash, just as efficiently as before. Thus, your premise is really an opinion disguised as a fact. I can't prove that prayer flashing was designed, and you can't prove that it wasn't. However, I can prove that using it is emergent gameplay, within the rules, and thus is in no need of fixing. Therefore, we can conclude that, while you may retain your opinion, it is, in fact, incorrect, and thus you are wrong. To any idiot who says "Well I still have my opinion..." ok, fine. You can have an opinion. But that doesn't make it right unless you can defend it with logic, and sources, something which the claim I address does not do.

Also, a very, very random question and I don't feel like making a full thread about it, but I just made this account and I added a signature obviously. I just leveled to 90 prayer. Do I have to go back and get the link all over again and put it in my signature for it to update? Or does it just eventually update on it's own?
