NukeMarine Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 A sister thread to the // Best Runescape Updates //. Post your THREE nominees for Worst Update for Runescape in 2006. By worst, I think you should limit it to something you think lessened the enjoyment of the game, but it's upto you as it's your votes. Hold flaming to a minimum, post your three choices clearly in order like this: Choice 1 - reason Choice 2 - reason Choice 3 - reason The order does not matter as each choice gets 1 vote. If you give more than three I'll take the first ones. If you decide to change your choices later, make a post with your original choices then state what your changes to them are. You don't have to give a reason, but it would be nice especially considering the topic. ************************************** As of page 5, mEB, post 17 Votes - Worst Updates 61 - Pure Essence 38 - Pest Control (Combat easy) 15 - Temple Trekking 13 - Halloween Event (Scared Emote re-release) 12 - Hunter skill (rushed, no appeal) 12 - Changes to Lumbridge (Skill Tutors, move mith mine, agility shortcut at graveyard) 12 - Soul's Bane quest 10 - Treasure Trails (emote clues) 9 - New Player Interface 8 - Renaming Servers 7 - Crossbows 7 - Construction (need house to level, money drain) 4 - Trouble Brewing 4 - Agility Pyramid 3 - Animal Magnetism (reduce fletching, pointless) 2 - Slug Menace Quest 2 - Verac hit through prayers (that was this year?) 3 - Wilderness Graphic update 2 - Gilded altar (Prayer easy) 2 - Lumbridge Home Teleport 2 - Sheep update (waste of NPC) 1 - Stronghold of Security 1 - Whimsical Quests 1 - Removed door Zammy Wine Room 1 - New Prayers 1 - Lunar Diplomacy (Lunar magics) 1 - Low level quests 1 - Skeletal Wyverns 1 - Gnome cooking mini-game 1 - Easter event (easter ring) 1 - Achievement capes (noobs bugging) 1 - Pyramid Plunder (easy thieving) 3 - Christmas Event 2 - New randoms 1 - Price change (protects whips) 1 - Black masks (easy slayer) Learn how to Learn Japanese on your own - Nukemarine's Suggested Guide for Beginners in JapaneseStop Forgetting Stuff for College and Life - Anki - a program which makes remembering things easyReach Elite Fitness - CrossFit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gift_of_flab Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 As I said in the other thread... Rune Essence adjustment - Less profit from runecrafting and harder to obtain pure essence without the supply of F2P. On a side note, as soon as I saw the Rune Essence adjustment update I sold some stuff and bought about 370k pure essence for 40 each :XD: and sold 200k later for 100each :XD: \ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kill_Life Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 - Pure Essences - Re-release of "Scared Emote" - Trouble Brewing Trouble Brewing can still be fun for the clothes tough. Not really have to give reasons I think, it's clear why? "A man's gotta do what a man's gotta do"[Currently playing: K1ll L1f3] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freesia Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 Glided altar - makes prayer too easy to lvl PC - Too easy to max out combat Pure ess - Do i need to explain further? Strangely with WotLK so near, I wished I could delay it a bit to push through that last TBC content in MH/BT :'(. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dork Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 Pest Control and Pure Essence are the only really bas updates this year in my opinion. There were some not so useful updates, but they didn't make the game worse in any way, so just those two for me.

Bellatrix Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 ok, here is my opinion: 1. Hunting: not because the skill is entirely bad, but because it could be done a thousand times better if it wasnt so rushed, and made to be a 6 years old kid-friendly. Hunter can be fan, but it will always stay a huge miss. 2. Animal magnetism. Bad story, too easy quest, a reward that is only to "spoil" players and prevent them from making effort to fletch or get arrows of their own. 3. Its hard to choose between the warrior guild, pest control and trouble brewing. But i will choose pest control, for being a safe-exp-machine that made leveling much too easy. Slayer: 85/85, Herblore: 82/82, Farming 81/82, def 99/99.new goals: full sardomain costum from t.trails (2/6), slayer 87/90, attack 98/99Dragon drops: 4 half shields, 2 dragon spears | whip drops: 5.barrow drops: Ahrim's hood Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiriyama Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 1. Pure Essence, essence is more expensive now. 2. Skill Tutors, why can't they figure it out for themselves? 3. Lumbridge Home Port, what happen to getting lost then finding your way back? This has made it too easy.

Mazurizi Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 I'd say Agility Pyramid right at the start of the year. Pest Control and Pure Essence Update. Agility Pyramid - Pointless? Pest Control - Makes it way to easy to level Combat Pure Essence - Much more expensive to train Runecrafting, and less profitable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golvellius Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 1)Whimiscal tone of all new updates (No serious adventure stuff, just salamanders and chinchompies as great weapons, while "my arm" eats groutweed...) 2) Emote clues (work twice as hard for your cabbage reward, and lame way to make smithing count for something) 3) Temple trekking (Just disappointing rewards and too frustrating, could have been good) Exclusive Legacy Mode Player He just successfully trolled you with "courtesy" and managed to get a reaction out of you.

Mollerz Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 These are all as bad as each other in no particular order... Slug Menace - I just plainly hate quests Animal Magnetism - Really easy quest, allows people to pick up arrows and knives and darts. Makes it extremely easy to get ranged exp and money. Why don't they just give free money to people who complete the quest Temple Trekking - Used for 1 or 2 days. NOBODY uses it anymore. The game world renaming was pretty bad. There were several useless things aswell. Click my signature for my blog! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex2828 Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 1. Essence. Even Jagex didn't want it to go the way it did. I was F2P at the time but i had been a member, so my 10k normal essence turned into 10k pure essence haha. But thats easily worst. 2. Pest Control. I play all the time but it has just become to easy for people to max stats now. And i've lost so many rankings in my former fave stat (prayer) ;) lol. 3. Construction Glitch? That was unbelieveable. But it wasn't a planned update so I award......... Trouble Brewing. Simply because it was a waste of time and effort. EDIT: Re-releasing scared emote. :@ Hunter was a GREAT update. It can't be bought either lol. Prayer Altar's were close to making my top 3 2. Currently: Quit Ages Ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decedenthope Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 Pest Control for making leveling easy. nothing else really bugged me... Killed Hobgoblin Champion: 1/28/07 The economy is run by 13 year olds. Inflation hits when their girlfriends dump them. Besides, in any normal economy an influx of new items is a good shot in the arm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
