Pirkka Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 With only a few weeks to go until MCM London, we can now reveal a bit more information about what you can expect to see on the RuneScape stand! The first thing you will notice about the RuneScape stand is that we have a very central location so there is no excuse not to stop by and say hi! The stand will be staffed all weekend by J-Mods ready to chat to you, whether you are an experienced RuneScape vet, new to the game, or just interested in finding out a bit more about the team behind the worlds largest free MMO. Throughout the weekend we will have a RuneScape artist on hand working on beautiful concepts, and they will be more than happy to sign prints of their work which will be for sale on the stand. Well also be showcasing RuneScape on large screens mixing it up between RuneScape videos, live concept artist work and Scapers playing live at the event. The main area of the stand will be dedicated to the most important thing playing RuneScape! Take a few minutes out from the hustle and bustle of the event by sitting down with us and playing a little RuneScape. You never know - a friendly J-Mod may even look over your shoulder and offer some top tips! MCM is a massive CosPlay event, so well also be on the look-out for people in RuneScape costumes Anyone showing up at the stand in costume is certain of a freebie , and if you really impress us well dig deep and give you something pretty special! If all that wasnt enough, remember that RuneScape will also be on the special panels running on the Sunday. The panel team will be in the spotlight at 11am and they will be encouraging the audience to become part of RuneScape history and make crowd sounds that we plan to feature in the game later this year. Since announcing that we would be at MCM weve received a huge number of enquiries to our MCM mail box asking for details of the special deals that we will be offering at the show. We can now confirm that well have deluxe membership packs on sale at special MCM prices. Well only be able to accept payments in cash or by major credit card (excluding American Express) for these bargain packs, so come prepared if you want to bag one of these special deals: Starter Pack (£5)1 month RuneScape Membership1 Vanity Item: Green Skin10 Spins on the Squeal of Fortune10% XP boost for 24 hours of game timeDiscount on Concept Art from us at MCM Premium Pack (£20)3 months RuneScape Membership2 Vanity Items: Green Skin and Ornate Katana25 Spins on the Squeal of Fortune10% XP Boost for 3 days of game timeDiscount on Concept Art from us at MCM Deluxe Pack (£50)6 months RuneScape Membership4 Vanity Items: Green Skin, Ornate Katana, Turkey Hat and Ice Mask10% XP Boost for 7 days of game time75 Spins on the Squeal of FortuneA Limited Edition RuneScape MCM T-ShirtExclusive Concept Art Oh, and one more thing: Mod Mark, RuneScapes Lead Designer, will be popping by the stand on Saturday. He loves nothing more than to talk RuneScape, so if you want to know why cabbages are so large, how long it takes to make an update or just to ask some other burning question, Mod Mark is the man. So, we hope you agree that MCM is shaping up to be a must see event.

Maximusa Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 I hope they dont hire someone to dress up as the goblin giving out spins as he may be in for a nasty shock. A few of us might be inclined to kick him in the groin and shove them somewhere unpleasant. Good for them for reaching out but im not that fussed by jagex events (Or ones they attend.) Shame it wasnt more of this years ago as I definitely be interested to see the people who make the game and such. Not currently though to be truthful due to their choices. Will just look at info released afterwards. VMeh BlogV >Miscellaneous Goals< http://www.rsbandb.com/sigs/sig108/bazzaminxer.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arceus Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 What if it's not a guy? Whoops...off to jail for assault. Anyway, I probably wouldn't go if it was in my own country, let alone all the way in London, but for anyone who's going, enjoy...

Hedgehog Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 I'm not too upset about this. It's just a limited time offer in order to get people to go. I'm annoyed by the squeal showing up again, though. It's getting obnoxious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trey Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 when they say 10% for 7 days game time. do they mean that you get 168 hours of xp boost, or a week of how ever many hours you can play? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drazhor Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 If they get somebody to dress up as a goblin for the $OF stuff, we need somebody to punch him with a boxing glove - your defence is claiming that you're just simulating what happens on the $of.

Neko Boi Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 I dunno whats worse; spewing SOF everywhere or the fact we need to live in London again to attend something for some form of vanity item i.e; that Ornate Katana. Just bloody let us buy the damn things already, we dont all live in London! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimberly Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 Can't spare the energy to give a [bleep] that they've done this. They've got every right to, and they seem hell-bent on never listening to the people who want simply to get the opportunity to obtain these vanity items via credit card. Continual financial discrimination from Jagex, never getting old there is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arceus Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 If you have a credit card with a recurring subscription, you are probably likely to continue it and a vanity item is not going to help. If, on the other hand, you are a little kid and you see you can sign up for membership and get X shiny item... "Fight for what you believe in, and believe in what you're fighting for."

Randox Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 Also, vanity items only work if not everyone has it. Thus Jagex only offers them to their fastest growing subscription method, because that's where the money is. Honestly, when I read this it didn't bother me at all. This isn't exactly what I was hoping for when a jmod told us that we would be able to obtain that stuff at a later date (it was kind of implied that everyone would be able to get things like the katana and green skin later), but the mod wasn't very high up, and that might have been the plan at one point. If anything, I'd rather see them keep reusing the vanity stuff rather than create even more things I can't get. The extra xp didn't really bother me. Not sure why.
