I guess updated graphics but in an "old style" could be nice occasionally, like if they wanted to show the progression or RS time. It shouldn't be overused though :P.

the logic of "do the graphical update i want or never update graphics again" :/

 

It's about prioritizing things that people actually want and that would actually significantly enhance the aesthetic experience of the game versus irrelevant crap that no one cares about and would scarcely make a difference. Seems like an easy decision to me.

You can't just scale down the attack anims like that for the pets, if it was that easy they'd do it.

I was refering to the skeletons not pets. I know about the pets.

It starts to be a bit less simple when you consider just how many pets there are, even before the bosses. It seems like it would be a lot of effort for something relatively small and forgettable.

Select people want that yes, other people want general improvement of graphics across the board, other people want cities re-doing. There is no right or wrong order, just to an individual.

alternate proposal: make everything a featureless blue block landscape in order to make runescape run faster

 

i'm puttin that one on runelabs

No one is saying Stu has to do it all right now. Why can't he do a few pets a week, or a few pets a month, rather than just flat out saying 'lolnope'? It would be a far better use of his weekly time than reworks like Skeletons. A lot of people have been wanting this stuff for a very long time, and specifically wanting all pets to be included in the pet interface (something Jagex said they'd do, but backtracked, now they claim it will be done by the end of 2015). I get that graphics aren't the most important thing ever, but we're talking about the guy whose main job is to work on graphics, and if that's his job, then he should work on stuff that people will be seeing frequently (their familiars, their hard-won rare pets) rather than other stuff. I think that's reasonable.

bb bullshit, low is not nearly LOW enough!!!

Battleship gambling incoming :')

A new poll is up this week with some interesting POH stuff. Sorry its not the long awaited and much needed construction rework though.

 

 

New Construction Room

 

Diamond

In April, we plan to add a new room to your POH (this is not a complete Construction rework). We asked you for your suggestions on the Future Updates forum, and we have collected the best of them here. Now, we want you to vote for the new POH room!

 

Highest Total Wins!

 

Aquarium
Gain unique fish in the surface world by fishing, and store them in your beautiful aquarium. Collect them all, then unlock new fish for the surface world. There is room for more skills to be added in the future

 

Resource Dungeon
A dungeon with hotspots that can be filled with a variety of Daemonheim skilling plots and monsters. Also includes hotspots that recognise your Dungeoneering achievements.

 

Greenhouse
A room packed with farming hotspots, and an ideal place to start or end your farming run. Plant existing seeds, or gain new and rare seeds in the surface world that can only be planted and grown here.

 

Hotel
Attract well-known characters to your POH by changing it to their needs. Gain resources while you are logged out as the characters enjoy staying in your home, similar to Managing Miscellania.

 

Treasure Vault
The room fills with gold as you add wealth to it. The room will recognise various monetary achievements in the game, and will offer new cosmetic gear that recognises your cash levels.

 

I don't mind
Select this option if you don't mind which of the above wins.

 

 

ETA: April

All of those options are very well interesting. My only itch is the treasure vault could stand to be very lacking if not done right and would be just another piece for those "billionaire" folk out there.

 

I think my votes going for the greenhouse.

I am split between Hotel and Greenhouse. Both options are very good.

Hmm, thinking Aquarium or Treasure Vault will likely win. We'll see I guess :P.

Ke logged in to vote on treasure 

Hope they don't pull a fast one on us and park Alice inside <.<.

Aquarium or greenhouse, but since I like collecting stuff I guess aquarium gets my vote.

The aquarium sounds interesting, and the treasure vault is just another money sink for construction so that's fine too.

 

The hotel would offer some humor. Gotta pay into upkeep as well as restocking all the towels and soap that go missing.

Greenhouse or Hotel imo - they actually add some new functional purpose to using the house.

 

I'd be interested to see what the resource dungeon thing would function like in greater detail before voting for it.

Im currently thinking the resource dungeon or the hotel because they could both have very useful things, skilling plots mayhaps for the dg one (based on what it implies) and i always love a good mange thy kindgdom style mini game

I think they should just add the treasure to the throne room so you can sit next to your giant heaps of money

I think they should just add the treasure to the throne room so you can sit next to your giant heaps of money

Why not just build your throne out of money?

Or even better, a real rework of the skill! :D

Can't comprehend they want to spend time on a system that's completely out of time, instead of reworking the skill.

 

I'll vote Hotel, I love MTK.

because that red throne cost quite a lot to then destroy it!

Hotel plz.

Love miscelania and ports.
