also,

You get no XP;You get no GP;

kind of attitude about a minigame is just bogus. its made to be fun, not a way of life. castle wars is probably the best concept of how a minigame should be, fun. purely fun, the tickets...useless for any1 almost except to show you played 400+ hours @ castle wars. it does not directly give you exp or $ but you go get your own experience, you decide if you can/want to get exp.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Castle wars gives XP.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

What everyone means is that hitting a 10 damage on an enemy gives no experience. Not that there are any XP bonuses, but the fact that NOTHING gives experience.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

im confused how castle war gives exp. simply put, its even quoted experience is optional. much like PC it is your choice to get exp.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you hit a 4, does castle wars give you 16 combat xp? If not, I apologize, as I haven't paid attention to my XP when playing.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

not on a baricade, and not only that you really do not have to attack anyone or anything. the catapult gives no exp and killing people with rocks does not. i said it allows for exp, doesnt give. PC literally forces experience onto you. 1 during the invasion of the island 2 on the point exchange.

 

stuck at Wave 7 with nowhere to go but back to 1, or waiting until tomorrow to finish it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

you can reset your wave... but still alot of work for nothing really

 

 

 

:-s

After a mess-up at lvl5(I didn't heal attacker in time) our collector called it quits and left just as we were going to win claiming the team suckednoob I wanna kill you!. Ah well...

Its really saddening that this actully needs explaining but... when you do damage to someone you NORMALY get combat exp, if you killed 15 level 70s in CW you DO get exp. in BA you get NOTHING. yes you can try to pull that whole " theres a potential for exp in cw" umm how many people go into CW and just stand there doing nothing? not many that i know of.. weak arguement really considering the topic is about how there is NO POSSIBLY WAY to gain exp in BA.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

just my 2 cents,i really enjoyed it and it would actully be something nice to do if there was a reason to do it.

i dont see how that is a weak argument... ive gone many many games without attacking anyone. and im capable of killing anyone who plays castle wars, im not joking so many people have fallen to my dagger @ castle wars mostly ancient mages. because i dont feel a lvl 70 who has no chance is worth my time to destroy, nor is it "okay" for me to shatter their dreams. like i said, ive seen tons of lvl 30 and under playing castle wars, infact i know of their are several low lvl skillers who actually play castle wars and gain tickets without doing anything.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

you saying its a weak argument is a weak arguemnt on your side, the fact remains it does not force exp on you and neither does BA, which is good for pures who want a fighter torso.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

and like i said, i bet of my 1200 castle wars tickets... ive gained 200 without actually gaining any combat exp. and that was all after alching was no longer allowed in castle wars. that way you cant say all i did was stand and alch during games... which i never did actually.

There are no dreams without opposition. Castle Wars is like a noob toughening center. Get owned enough times and you go out and train.

Yeah, it really did die fast. But I'll probably head back to BA for a torso, now that runners can't get stuck (THANK YOU JAGEX), one time I spent 2 hours at the queen healing everyone like crazy and the defender was working incredibly hard to get the runners when they were stuck, in the end I was the one to leave, but we all became friends after that misadventure :D

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I just think BA needs xp, and a small tweak to the calling system:

 

 

 

The call should switch every 2 minutes at wave 1, and decrease by 10 seconds for every wave you beat. But, halfway through that time, if your call has not been shouted yet, it will appear. Another thing: if someone mis-calls, then the message shouldn't appear.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

My 2 cents.

okay how about i break it down into2 simple equations:

 

 

 

CA = Possibilty for exp

 

 

 

BA= NO POSSIBILITY for exp

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

summery:

 

 

 

you dont gain exp in CA; thats your choice, you dont gain exp in BA by design and nothing you do or dont do can change that

i dunno about you, but i gain magic exp @ ba all the time even if not not using magic to kill monsters.

i dunno about you, but i gain magic exp @ ba all the time even if not not using magic to kill monsters.

The sad thing is, I think a lot of the people here are hypocrites. Why? They say that they don't play BA because they won't actually get anything worthwhile in the game

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

How about in real life? Why do you play runescape then? Nothing worthwhile will really come out of it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Last time I saw, a game was for fun..

Now that you can aceint there its fun if you can find a team.

wow i never knew it didnt give xp but even if it did i probably wouldnt play i played the first day and stopped there were way to many poeple who had no clue what there were doin i had wave 3 last 1 hour because the healer and defender had no idea what to do

The game isn't dead yet. I went down for my second time on World 6 and I was getting into games easily, and having a good team too. BA isn't quite dead yet.

Never played it.

 

 

 

I don't generally like updates.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

There is no need for mini-games.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Team v Team = Castle Wars

 

 

 

Player v PlayerS = Fight Pits

 

 

 

Player v Player = Duel Arena

 

 

 

Team vs Monsters = Pest Control

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Where would BA fit in?

Instant, wow terms. They just got this from wow, I think they want something like that too (because it is very cool).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I would only play BA for fun, otherwise it's a waste of time. And when doing something fun, I rather play cw, to get a little closer to the wanted gold armour.
