Sy_Accursed Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 I've got 'over a year' until 10 yr vet according to Hans. Seems about right I believe it should be cotober-ish next year I can get it.

Riqualyn Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Nice little quality of life bonus with this... I don't have to go to Varrock every time I teleport to mobilizing armies to remove the stupid title it gives me. It also looks like everyone gets 200 coins for free.

BiJay Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 It's like they want to imitate Maple Story or something. The new rwt features are remarkably similar. - Gachapon is functionally much like SoF- A special currency linked to ingame money- Massive amounts of cosmetic items bought only with this currency We're only missing 2x exp and item cards now.Insight Venture Partners are the investors of both Jagex and Nexon... just saying.

WeatherMatt Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 All this talk of people not being able to get 10 year cape...wouldn't surprise me if Jagex only counted since the first day you bought members or something. Or it glitched. Who knows. I'm still sad there's no official record of us 2001ites, we're all lumped together in day 1 of members for our creation date.

Jonanananas Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 I don't see the problem with this, it's far less worse than SoF. At least no one can gain an advantage here. If someone wants to spend 40 bucks on an outfit, all power to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clan_Chat_Op Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 IVP killed Maplestory. Round two, Runescape. This is very true ~ also be known that the firm is being run by former Goldman Sachs - and IVP has a big hold in runescape... pretty much it is about cashflow now.... not about game play. They want their quick profit so their CEO can get their bonus. I skill. If you skill you should join. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I still don't understand the fuss. I'd hope they'd remove SoF if Solomon gets them enough cash, but chances of that are very slim lol. Here's to hoping :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaur Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Nice to see everyone finally seeing the truth about their account age.Was getting tired of all the idiots claiming they started playing runescape back in 1999 or something retarded like this.

Sly_Wizard Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 I know I started playing before February 27, 2002, which is the date Jagex is using to judge whether or not people's accounts are 10 years old, so I'm good. Feels kind of weird to think I've been playing Runescape (off and on) for 10 years now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vezon Dash Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 I don't really mind it, but it seems like it is the end of the world for some people.That's because RS used to be different from all the other idiotic (generally asian) MMO's. Now it's turning into one of those games.Usually MMO's have a) a monthly fee or b) microtransactions. Of course Jagex seems to be part of the "Why not both?" school of thought now. Well, if it is getting too idiotic for you, play a different game. The thing is, you don't have to use the micro transactions to compete with others. Everything can be done without them.

decebal Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Before you head off to get your cape and enjoy its impressive new emote, we’d just like to say a big thank you to all of our loyal players members...On a topic unrelated to that quote, I truly don't like the direction Jagex is taking. If we accept this, what else will Jagex try to push through? Just looking at the posts in this thread, a worrying amount of people are desensitized by the SoF saying that at least this is much better than the SoF. I can see this being a green light for Jagex to release more microtransactions, starting with time-expiring ones, and maybe ending with combat items. Phase two of Operation DestroyRS, complete. I'm really tempted to use my 200 rcoins on that Guy Fawkes mask as a form of protest, but I'd only be willing to do it if others do the same :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir_Squab Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 It's a little odd that you cant pk or even enter the wilderness with those customisations. Perhaps if the squeel didn't exist I might be ok with this update. Microtransactions for purely cosmetic (no stats or xp bonuses) items.That's because you can hide armour/weapons under the new clothing apparently.Why doesn't armour just trump "customisations" then. e.g If you have the Guy Fawkes mask and put on a helmet it disappears until you take it off.Because these customizations and cosmetic gear in general is pointless if you can't wear your armor underneath it. Apparently, boobs got bigger with this update. Confirm/deny? Boobs, anyone? Any news of la boobs? Perv. Anyways, I have no problem with this update as long as it stays purely cosmetic. I would've felt this exact same way had it come out before the SoF. Squab unleashes Megiddo! Completed all quests and hard diaries. 75+ Skiller. (At one point.) 2000+ total. 99 Magic.[spoiler=The rest of my sig. You know you wanna see it.]my difinition of noob is i dont like u, either u are better then me or u are worst them meBuying spins make you a bad person...don't do it. It's like buying nukes for North Korea.Well if it bothers you that the game is more fun now, then you can go cry in a corner. :shame:your article was the equivalent of a circumcized porcupineThe only thing wrong with it is the lack of a percentage for when you need to stroke it.
