Are some random events getting out of hand?

Featured Replies

Security guard gave me half key today. \'

 

 

 

But yes, randoms are getting soo annoying. Especially evil bob thingies, island and prison pete and then there's this new evil twin random which really pisses me off. And then there's always these frogs hopping around, come on! I already have around 80+ tokens in my bank, leave me alone! You really hate it when they or some similar random pops out for example when your mageing metal dragons, have a nice day trying to desperately talk to one of these randoms when theres this metal beast breathing fireballs at you ruining any dialogs and there's still over twenty spells to take it down. :wall:

 

 

 

Jagex should make random free areas in places where macroers are really rare or non existent. Metal dragons, barrows tunnels etc.

 

I agree with that too. Add POH's to that list, case it gets really annoying when you get MOM's in your house while throwing a party. And what sort of macro would attend a party?

 

 

 

The main thing that prevents them doing that is alching, I believe. Any place with any safe spots is a prime spot for hi alching.

People say that macros use colors to click the right stuff... so why doesn't Jagex make a random event that flashes a whole bunch of different freakin' colors? Wouldn't that confuse the hell out of them dang macroers?

 

 

 

moopy what about the people with epelepsy??

 

 

 

the random could pop up give them a seizure :shame:

 

 

 

thats why when your about to go into the rift pr.oddenstein warns ppl with epelepsy do not go in there :notalk: we dont want that now do we

 

 

 

 

 

any who :P \'

 

 

 

 

 

lol! the random would go like this

 

 

 

Person fight shadow warriors

 

random diso ball lowers from the cave roof, and starts spewing colored liights everywhere.

 

 

 

*disco themed medi files start going*

 

 

 

that would make my day

 

 

 

then greenboy pops up in a speedo and starts doin the mj dance

 

Um wow, I would have never thunk it that you would do that...

 

 

 

Anywho I thought there were discussions about randoms already.

A reflection is just a distorted reality held by glass and your mind.

well autors work like this: they search for a color like the yellow in the bank sign on the minimap and they search the screen for that color so if those flashes come they wont do anything but will find it bout 15 secs later when they search again if not found. so this only delays them

 

 

 

but runescape already has something against those color using autoers: everytime u log in the colors are different code :wink:

i hate new random so much, the day the picious pete random(candle) came out... i was like oh god jagex totally messed this up...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

first of all, where the hell are all the old randoms? mimes... and genies?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

the last time i had a mime was 6months ago, and a genie about 2 weeks. mimes of course are rare...but genies are meant to be rare, i used to get 3 genies a day on a good day... but of course some days none and others 1 or 2 maybe 5

80% of all randoms I get are worthless ones, mostly Mysterious Old Men and the Sandwich Lady.

 

 

 

I've been playing RS for over 2 years now, my total lvl is 1350, cmb 89.

1 useful random in over 2 years, ONE!! How unlucky am I :(

There are getting to be too many different ones.

 

Like every month a new one or two comes out.

 

Pretty soon they are going to have to make a dunegeon called "how to deal with random events" as a folow up to the security stronghold thing.

 

Where we can all learn how to deal with the dozens of them that they are creating. :-X

I hate the randoms that you have to talk to like Frogs, Sandwich Lady, etc when your in the middle of combat, you end up not being able to talk to them and you get teled. :evil:

No longer playing Runescape, I caught the WoW bug.

I once got teled out of fight pits by frogs. I think Jagex should stop randoms in the fight pits w8in area

New randoms...completely pointless. If anything Jagex should just make slight alterations to the programming of the existing randoms every week, not enough for us to notice but enough to throw the macros off for a day or two. Might work. Adding new randoms just increases the risk for honest players.

"Da mihi castitatem et continentam, sed noli modo"

i got 3 security guards in the span of 5 iron dragons doing slayer. Then got 6 (yeah i was amazed myself) frogs while i was alching inside my house. I get tired of these stupid randoms that give you sone coins of a freakin gems... although i have gotten a few half keys from MOM and i think he gives gems so does that me in some rareeeee happenstance he'll give a left half?

So, yes. Screenshot was borrowed :-w

 

 

 

Being hit cancels you solving a random, which makes it near impossible to do so during a battle in the wilderness. So basically, you're being given an early death sentence at random. Same goes for randoms at other dangerous places. It's just cases of bad game design not seen since the days of 8-bit consoles :shame:

 

The Programmers just look at Jagex and laugh, just more programming pratice for them.

 

 

 

Heck I don't even program things for runescape (or any other game) and I laugh. I program for school and I know what Jagex does with randoms is pathetic. Every time I get a new one I instantly can see how to get around it, it isn't hard.

You make it sound like running through a few level 87 monsters is hard which it really shouldn't be at your level.

A random event that uses colors would be a great obstacle for those who are color-blind . That's the reason why mysterious boxes use numbers instead of colors.

*sigh* i wish there was a way we can kill all the macros, autoers and random events

rofl!!!

 

When you say that this is what i imagine:

 

a macro is making a script and hes like "yes! only one more random to record!! The flashy one! Oh wait!! I have epelepsy!!

 

*starts shaking uncontrolably as the screen starts flashing*

 

 

 

 

Oh yeah because Epelepsy is such a big joke [/sarcasm]

 

 

 

Randoms will always be implemented no matter how annoying or childish they are I guess

While also achieving giving mass-seizures to everyone, yes, it would confuse the hell out of them... :roll:

Ive stopped burying bones in the hope that i don't get the gravedigger or mime again :wall:

 

 

 

P.S prayer lvl is only 53. (most of these randoms came from burying bones)

I don't really have a problem with most randoms, except in surtain certain situations. How am I supposed to answer the frogs when I am in a area with agressive mobs? And then there is the evil chicken when training in Dharok's. If the evil chicken pops up and you aren't paying much attention, you could easily wind up in lumbridge. Mostly I just don't like the ones that teleport you and don't give much in return (evil twin, pinball ect.) If you are given a decent reward (i.e. equipment) I have no problem with it.

 

 

 

You must keep in mind though, that no matter what Jagex does, there will always be bots. To think otherwise would be quite foolish.

awesome_bloodvelds_siggeh.pngpossiblesig11.png

:^_^: I drew that smilie, btw, along with a few more used by this site.

Classic bloodveld for lyph3! Although I do like the new ones.

Like a ninja, here I was, gone I am now.

BUT! I may be back! Add my new account, Dr Bloodveld!

I like the gravedigger, he helps me bank at long fire giant runs but other than there all randoms are completly stupid!

finally back in the game! send me a message, all my old friends quit

I laughed so hard I pooped my thong. :lol:
