Jard_Y_Dooku Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 Remember the parents' guide? Well, here was the old map (thanks, Tommy213!)... and the new... Here's a version of it with some stuff circled... first... a mysteriously icy island. And doesn't the area in the south east ALMOST look the the border of the desert sands to the water? AND! Look at feldip hills! A new and interesting area! Oh yes, and doesn't the map seem a bit... rounded almost?! Look at the wilderness and Miscellania/Etceteria and where I drew lines around the edges! EDIT: Now that I look at it more, that's DEFINITELY rounded!! Discuss this new and exciting find! Maybe this will be soon, hmm? Also, zsandmann made a very nice map showing outlines... Gilenor must really be tiny, you can cross the whole world in less than hour easily, so if it's round it's a really small planet.... No one said it was Earth sized, but judging by the curves in the corners we are only seeing one hemisphere, so they could easily add 50% more land mass. Look at the cloud formations I outlined in red, those to me seem to shadow coatlines and several odd blobs would hint at new islands, the one in the south being as large as Ape Atoll. And another south of Tutorial Island. Isdanfar (sp?) seems shaped like North America, and the Feldip Hills look like the top of South America with a Gulf in between. Notice the new sandy beach area south of the ogres, I see several blue spots, looks like a port to me. Ogre Civilization? My hopes for October BTS: Mourning's Ends Part III / please let us in Prifddinas! New Feldip Hills Area Redo of Halloween 2006 Never trust anyone.

No no, it doesn't. Look closer, there's a newer area south of where Rantz/chompys/etc are. EDIT: There you go. :roll: Yes, that's my second most looking forward to. First is PRIFDDINAS.

aoe325 Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 the map is so nice :3> It means we currently explored half of the runescape world, which also means that in 4 years, when the map will be so much more expended, u will be able to get from the west to the east just by walking one square :P (yeah im dreaming but it would be funny) Quest cape obtained at combat level 83, march 07.

Barihawk Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 A round world?! Here there be Dragons! It now provides enough room for a HUGE area of the world to form. My heart is broken by the terrible loss I have sustained in my old friends and companions and my poor soldiers. Believe me, nothing except a battle lost can be half so melancholy as a battle won. -Sir Arthur Wellesley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barihawk Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 Oh, and on the note of the winter elemental disappearing. JaGex REALLY likes to taunt us in the Knowledge base, and post "leaks" every once in a while. They may happen, they may not. Regardless, they are fully intentional, almost like Easter Eggs.

This would mean that in its current form, after walking a trip around the world, North and South wouldnt line up anymore. If any such a world is presented, the whole map based on Squared will have to be tossed out fo the window... Or we're really living on a cilinder shaped world.

speedofsound Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 Gaa islands above wildy! *runs around and faints* You can't ever find a place that's nice and peaceful, because there isn't any. You may think there is, but once you get there, when you're not looking, somebody'll sneak up and write "(bleep) you" right under your nose. Try it sometime. I think, even, if I ever die, and they stick me in a cemetery, and I have a tombstone and all, it'll say "Holden Caulfield" on it, and then what year I was born and what year I died, and then right under that it'll say "(bleep) you."

Kashi Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 Ahh hah! When you look at the current world map, the areas you pointed out are mysteriously covered up with black patches!

malo2 Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 wow, thats very cool, espechially that south of field tip hills part. Very nice map also. Btw, why is everyone thinking that the world will be made round just because of one picture? its obviously made like that to make the map look nice, i really doubt they will make it round and limit the amount of room.
