I mean I see both your points, Account farmers aren't sitting here just waiting for this mode to come out they still have accounts being made around the clock as is. And the econ. will only be affected if they farm supplies that are already in need. But I think one thing you are over looking is the FRESH start. In the current econ. we have supplies at the ready so long as you have the gold. In a new world with new accounts people are going to have to grind out things almost like an IM because no one is going to be able to just jump on the main. And granted 3 months is a long time and people who no life or bot this mode will hit late game and start to put things into the market.

The real problem IMO is the buff effects that they have posted around like the 50% porter chance and stuff in that nature. It would make the mode easier and I agree with that but in the long run I could just make an alt that sits on oaks and normal logs for 3 months and when it moves to the real game drop 3b logs into the market which would have an impact on the game.

Yes, some players certainly grossly underestimated the scarcity of items and gp in a totally fresh servers. It will be very hard to both level and farm gp/items effectively. A case study here:

Lost Ark launched with a gigantic duping bugs. It lingered for weeks before Amazon decided not to do anything and let everybody keep their illegitimately obtained items. On surface impact of the exploits was huge to the economy because Lost Ark is a huge game with huge economy. However the actual fact is hardly anybody noticed a thing in the economy because character progressions and farming activities were extremely low in fresh start servers.

If you have played "rs" for over 20 years and you only played IM in RS3, I suggest you to experience the RS3 economy first hand with a new alt. Perhaps FSW is a good time to do it.

At least you can watch videos from plenty of content providers. RS3's economy is not as fragile as the bot infested RS2 and OSRS counterparts because real players don't need to bot to get higher profits than RS2 or OSRS and most really high gp/hr content can't be botted.

I lost count of how many such "save this qfc and come see me nd of blah blah blah" posts have I seen but they are all hidden if not eaten by the Page 50 monster. Actually we can discuss with the effect of "golden partyhat fiesta" already. RS3's economy is hardly any difference than the time of the golden partyhat event.

Your arrogance is amazing but nothing I've not seen before daily lol

I've played ironman mode for the last 4 months

This account isn't my ironman

I have multiple alt accounts and very aware of the goings on in the game

This area is a place to voice and discuss concerns or feedback for future updates to the game, if all you are here to do is flex that keyboard of yours then its clear you are not worth the time of a reply, come on man I fully get you're behind this update, can tell by your activity in this part of the forum but im not here to be personally questioned and revive attempts of belittlement yea? ||

I am talking about the Golden Phats you seem to be complaining about.

There are numerous ways Jagex can set everybody on the same level playing ground regardless of levels. If they weren't doing the FSW thing, they would still be doing other things like Glden partyhats, Green Santa, Balloons event etc for everybody regardless of levels.

Levels is the least problem to the economy as most of the meaningful items are obtained with SKILLS not in the sense of levels and xp but the actual capabilities of the players to kill high enraged Zamorak, Telos and such, as well as the abilities to do the likes of Croesus and Big Game Hunter. Having just the levels alone but not the actual abilities and know hows certainly won't help any new or returning players to best existing players, thus hardly any issue to the actual economy. On the contrary, when the incoming players are willing to consume, the merr

This is where the main game problem lies in my opinion only a select view can beat these high level bosses and thats were all the gp goes. Other players who arent nerdy enough to spamclick keybinds without having a heart attack are being left behind by jagex stupid boss mechanics. Imagination is more important than knowledge.

Absolutely wrong because most endgame content, especially the more recent one like ED4, Arch Glacor etc all have different difficulties to choose from. Everybody can get the drop, but of course it is only fair the more skillful players get the better chance.

If this is stupid boss mechanics why is OSRS copying the same idea and rework their raids to the RS3 elite dungeon format? Why is OSRS doing the copycat act with Raid 3 and make it like Arch Glacor?

Ok, I get that maybe a few accounts will be made and later sold.

But honestly how many people do you think that are out there looking to buy an RS account that can't find one now after millions of accounts have been created and most of them are inactive?

I just don't see this a real problem. I wouldn't buy an account anyway, but I can't imagine that Fresh Start would make much of a difference in that.

And it will require a whole lot more effort to "farm", plus additional cost, anything in Fresh Start. As long as they are vigilant about bots I also don't see this as being a huge problem.
