This can still be suggested to Runelabs, even if it doesn't meet this month's criteria. Any suggestion that doesn't will just be inactive, and activated in a subsequent month when it does match. In the meantime, players can add the suggestion (active or otherwise) to their 'wish list' to be notified when it becomes active.

(Hopefully, Jagex can also monitor which suggestions are wish listed and that in itself could be used as an expression of interest by the players.)


I'd love to see if there was enough play support behind this for Jagex to do it. Unfortunately not a lot of the community uses the forums, so hopefully in-game more players may come together for this idea. :)

I would think if they were to scale up runescape they'd have to add a bunch of different buildings, scenery etc. to each city/area pretty much redesign the entire map almost from scratch then program it all for it to look right. Runescape 4/5 if you will.

No scaling in size please, it would just make travel more tedious. What I would like to see are updates made to the city of Menaphos, to increase number of facilities there and introduce a new area to the west of menaphos because that black void on the world map is irritating - like we're missing a chunk of the map.

This increases map size and explores new adventure possibilities.

I have already seen several suggestions for 'Enlarging the overworld' on Runelabs, but so far nothing with substantial content. I'd say wait a while until everything has calmed down and some of the more useless/spam suggestions have been disposed of.

There's no rush as an update of this size will never meet this months 'medium' update criteria.



Edit: I've reposted some Runelabs suggestions on this topic below, so you can see what is already available. These are the bench mark if you decide to make you're own submission. (If anyone finds any more, please post them here so we can see what options are available to support.)

Idea #628: Expanding the RuneScape overworld, by Ayumu
Original message details are unavailable.
Hello here is my idea for Rune-labs

think about how pecked Runescape is everything

is close by and there is almost no room for new content and with the release of the loadstone system you almost don´t have to run anywhere and i think that's a little bit sad :c because when i think back in the days we had to walk everywhere

and the world seems much larger because

we didn't had the run energy to get there and today we teleport everywhere

and that is really sad and takes so much from the Runescape experiences away

i hope this idea gets through because i want that everyone should have a nice experiences in a MMOR** :D

Mfg Ayumu

Idea #2196: Increase the size of the game world, by Meet Dave
Original message details are unavailable.
I know this isn't exactly a medium project, it's probably a very small one

However, you did say you'd keep projects of smaller/larger scales to one side and they may get worked on in the future

So, the other day I was reading the Betrayal of Falador book. In the book it takes the Squire 2 days to go from Falador to Taverly. Obviously, I wouldn't expect us to spend 2 hours walking from falador to taverly but currently in-game it takes about 30 seconds. What i would like to see is the distance between towns doubled or tripled even.
