Umega Posted October 28, 2006 Share Posted October 28, 2006 I've noticed something about the 2 newest quests Elemental Workshop II and My Arm's big adventure. At the Mind level of the workshop when the quest came out I noticed that other players in the level didn't appear, I was all on my own down there. When I did the My Arm quest when it also came out, I went to the top of the mountian and realised where I was and again I noticed that I didn't see anyone around where players would usually appear. Is it because Jagex doesn't want other players around giving clues and hints when the quest is newly released? So they make other players dissapear while you're on your own doing the new quest with no clues from other players :| . Mind you I would of had the Elemental Workshop quest done quicker if players showed up giving out clues and stuff. Expect to see more quests like these when your on your own. No longer playing Runescape, I caught the WoW bug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stan18 Posted October 28, 2006 Share Posted October 28, 2006 heh, i think you're overthinking it. many parts of those quests required individual action. Imagine seeing 200 carts move around, making the mind bar as everyone does it at once, or fifty giant roc birds trying to get the goutweed. more of a clutter issue, i would say Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TechHead7890 Posted October 28, 2006 Share Posted October 28, 2006 This happened in the HAM stealth puzzle didn't it too? I think it's a clutter issue: you could just go outside... But down there it'd have like 100 zaniks... bit weird? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Umega Posted October 28, 2006 Author Share Posted October 28, 2006 Hmm, yeah maybe a clutter issue. But still Jagex can make NPCs invisible to other players, and they could do the same to those carts. No longer playing Runescape, I caught the WoW bug.

Imagine seeing 200 carts move around, making the mind bar as everyone does it at once, or fifty giant roc birds trying to get the goutweed. more of a clutter issue, i would say na, it wouldn't be like that, you'd see your own individual thing, but not others. Anyway, i hadn't thought about this, but its proibably true.

Stephen9o3 Posted October 28, 2006 Share Posted October 28, 2006 In Swan Song when you're doing the quest and in the village, you cant see anyone else until you're done Combat FTL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tefda Posted October 28, 2006 Share Posted October 28, 2006 It's just another map. If you could see a whole bunch of people using the areas inside Piscatoris before YOU'VE saved it it would ruin the quest. YOU are the one who is supposed to be the hero, YOU are the one who is supposed to be figuring out these puzzles. Once you do then you can complete the quest and you actually become the hero but by seeing others already in an area in which you alone know about or are there to save ruins the fact that you are the hero in this story. That's just my opinion though. Jagex isn't trying to stop people from helping others with quests, they're trying to keep the quests integrity intact.

malo2 Posted October 28, 2006 Share Posted October 28, 2006 Hmm, yeah maybe a clutter issue. But still Jagex can make NPCs invisible to other players, and they could do the same to those carts.thats true, but the elemental workshop was sopposed to be some hidden labratory nobody knew about, it wouldnt make sence if 200 people were down there.

Umega Posted October 28, 2006 Author Share Posted October 28, 2006 In Swan Song when you're doing the quest and in the village, you cant see anyone else until you're done Oh yeah I forgot about that quest. I don't know why they had to do that other than backing the reason why Jagex want you on your own doing a quest. No longer playing Runescape, I caught the WoW bug.

oreocookie987 Posted October 28, 2006 Share Posted October 28, 2006 Its the same thing in the Lumbridge Banquet Room during Recipe For Disaster. You can't see anyone in there.

Saru Inc Posted October 28, 2006 Share Posted October 28, 2006 wifout me my m8 woodnt hav dun d slayer he had 28 sordys so did i he lost all sordies so i gave him mine i got 50k afterwars ;) English please? Well, that my be true, but maybe its just because thats how the quest works.... Can you imagine 50 people all fighting the Gelitannoth mother or the Culinaromancer? I agree with Stan18, more of a clutter issue. Still, that is a interesting idea... ~Saruman44 I have all the 99s, and have been playing since 2001.

jesterotr Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 Don't forget Horror from the Deep. When you fight the monster at the end there aren't dozens of dagganoths running around with people fighting them. Its only after that quest that they show up, in the same spot you just were. Similar thing with farming patches, you can only see your own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
