Other games similar to Runescape do things different to Runescape, what ideas from these games do you think would work and which ones wouldn't?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

From Diablo 2:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Drop System (Appears for EVERYONE): Wouldn't work at all in Runescape, only works in D2 due to the fact you can have private games.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Coloured Item System: I could see this working in Runescape actualy and it would cut down on scamming, have Discontinued items one colour, "Rare" Items another colour, Quest items another etc. For example.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Rune Chainbody - Rune Items

 

 

 

Dragon Chainbody - Dragon Items

 

 

 

Black Candlestick - Quest Items

 

 

 

Half of a Key - "Rare" Items

 

 

 

Enchanted Top - Treasure Trail Items

 

 

 

Blue Mask - Discontinued Items

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Random Dungeons: It's needed in Runescape to make it more exciting, add a chest at the end with some rewards that would be a mixture of TT and Barrows (Not the rewards, but the kind of rewards if you get what I mean). This is what I think Jagex was going to do with Randomly Generated Scenario's and it would be fun going there with a few friends.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

That's all I can think of at the moment (/ bothered to type =P).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Post what you think of how the things would work in Runescape and discuss other features in other games and how they would or wouldn't work in Runescape.

well obviously different special attacks and combos...but i doubt runescape is complex enough for that.

Your Random Dungeon idea was mentioned in an old Behind the Scenes artical, which means that Jagex is working on it. Many people believe that that was the In Aid of the Myreque mini-game for after you complete that quest. I honestly don't think that, because it's fairly predictable as to what will happen.

Hence why I mentioned it in my original post ;) I just hope they haven't abandoned the idea :(

giant bosses that require a team of people to kill them (i mean require not like makes it easier) all of runescapes bosses can be soloed. (i made a whole topic about this last year) btw first cool topic in a while.

the random dungeons is kind of like temple trekking, but its not in a dungeon

Maybe like Guild Wars where you get your own dance but in Guild Wars they are like those dancers in those 21 years or older clubs. Maybe something like that where you can pick your own special emote dance.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Break dancing anyone? Would be funny to see 10 low levels in a line at Lumbridge break dancing and grown up dancing *cough.

I loved the dungeons and areas in D2, fighting off tons of monsters and helping out your friends. I wish Jagex could do something like that.

Make Npcs follow you like in err Fable.

Augments for weapons and armours. This would work, could be drops, quest items, or craftable/smithable at the right level.

Z0MG YOU MENTIONED WOW@@@@@

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

and the KQ was like that before barrows armour, also the KBD used to be like that before whips and all the new stuff, was fun, also i think thats what Jagex intended with the Dagganoth Kings, what can i say...anything is possible with Barrows armour.

er?

Chat channels and an auction house would be a great start. A clan/guild system would also be wonderful.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

EDIT: Also, giant bosses and such wouldn't work as well as you may think. On WoW and similar games with giant bosses, you are expected to die dozens of times while you learn exactly where to stand, what abilities to use, what attacks the bosses use, ect, and the 3 item rule on rs would make that waaaay too costly.

Something from another game that wouldn't work in Runescape?

 

 

 

*Pictures the Mega-Blast Miracle from 'Black & White"*

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Can't think of one at the moment. :twisted:

 

 

 

(Might as well post a picture later)

If anyone ever played any warcraft 3 custom games, I would LOVE to see an Enfo's style minigame. Pest control is similar, but I would like waves of monsters that you HAVE to defeat, with the portals unattackable.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Or maybe a DotA type game, although that sounds suspiciously like B Assault ;)

From Halo/Halo 2

 

 

 

The energy sword. That would simply own

Full clan support would work. I've played another java game that had it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Jagex has been too busy making n00b updates and unfairly banning innocent players when they should have been coding something cool like a clan support system. :roll:

Diablo 2: have an area where there are 3 "ubers" of the KBD, KQ, and the Giant Mole, with an extreely unique reward if you solo the whole place

Guns wont work :wink:

 

 

 

Also, yes to overpowered monsters, yes to lots of item loss, no to one player getting to know where to stand so everyone can solo the overpowered monster.

Instances that last for hours that require an entire raid group, auction house, and mounts would be nice for a start.

Hmm, surprised no one mentionned the KIngdom of Loathing Adventure system...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

No meat currency for RS?

Natural disasters from Sim City 3000.. Having aliens attack Varrock or a huge fire pretty much swallow world 2 Fally would simply just be too much :mrgreen:

Having quests or missions that require a party of about 4-6 to actually do without just running through. Could open up a new area

 

 

 

From many games but i got from Guild Wars

mounts would work but I'm not sure about one thing.

 

 

 

races? like elves, dwarfs, gnomes, undead, human, troll would they work?

A single boss monster NPC with multiple attackable targets (like a hydra with multiple heads that you need to kill).
