Ah right - that literal mindedness, which is the reason why things always need be more specified - Feel free to add a 'basically' before nobody.

That a small community of griefers wants to damage their fellow players in any way possible fine.

And yeah some apologists who got the feeling it's remotely part of the game just because some dude without any clue of game design whatsoever added it back in 2001 - has something of an boomer wanting to relieve the good old times...

Part of the same post. Dunno which you are. One of two.

Dunno why players are hyped about a vacant plot, that suddenly got life breathed into it just to want it to be the vacant plot again it basically was for the last decade. Since this is everything this idea and anything similiar will achieve - killing off something players currently enjoy to use. It must really release endorphins when you grief a RCer for his essences. Still possible actually. Improvements: Tooltip / (F2P) QoL v2

I 100% agree, the wilderness obviously needs PVP.


I try and help the world in every possible and I almost neglected to post on here, just because Jagex obviously have their heads up an area that I won't say on these forums *keeping it rated PG*




Here's my thread I made regarding the wilderness. 185-186-305-66268915


Cheers and good luck, but after my 2 year run of making posts almost everyday regarding the state of RuneScape and the need of PVP and minigame revamps, I was more than just ignored and that's saying something.
Always think creatively, and you shall be creative.

Actually more than half of RS died because they destroyed PvP with the combat and wildy changes.

Actual PvP never died. We need to bring back the good stuff in order to get the greater part of the RS community back. All that is left now is people who are still nostalgic of RS and people who just want to see that XP counter going up. There are nearly no people left who actually enjoy to play the game's content. This is why 80% of the content is dead.

Also, risking being killed by a PvPer for that extra XP is how it is meant to be. Now they just killed off more content (normal RCing) by making it too easy to craft via the Abyss. Stop complaining and wanting EasyScape.

Thanks to the supporters this far, I know it will be hard to convince people as the majority of supporters of PvP do not play RS3 anymore and also are not active on this forum. If Jagex wants to boost their user base, they need to bring back PvP. Right now the game is just spiralling towards more dead content.

That was 15 years ago . And it took a 'I brought the wilderness back' wall consisting mainly of bot names to have it returned the first time. They've displayed that thing at some runefest even.

Face it - even in OS - which is the closest you can get to whatever the game was in 2007 - most players despise the wilderness system ( not pvp - albeit RS never was a good pvp game, but for some that RNG simulator is good enough if they don't lose everything) so basically every bigger change or content addition to it fails. Causing Jagex to put it out nevertheless despite community approval being a pillar of that game.

If you liked the system so much, there is OS for you. It won't ever change there. And still it is not for most players what you're trying to refer to. OS also hasn't got closely the player numbers RS2 had had back in the day - what could be the reason for this? It's obviously not waylay pvp having been removed. Improvements: Tooltip / (F2P) QoL v2

Again - focus on non-degenerate PvP instead of this waylay crap trying to destroy something way more players currently enjoy than they ever did at any point in the past decade . Not some, players just ignore it at best or I'll use it begrudgingly due to unhealthy overpoweredness in order to compensate the potential of some griefer showing up. Which they often enough don't, so the methods are just unnecessarily overpowered. But when they do it sucks. And we're not talking about the tons and tons of exploits this kind of player is ready to employ to cause even more damage - even when it was 'opt-in', taking Jagex another half a year to fix it.

That's not just trying to waste dev time for nothing, that's trying to waste dev time for something, that is detrimental to the game. Improvements: Tooltip / (F2P) QoL v2

What are you talking about? The only reason why players are enjoying these Wildy Flash Events is because it is an easy GP grab. Talk about something that is ACTUALLY detrimental to the game, lol.

Stop posting on this thread if you have nothing good to say. I have had enough of your negativity.

What about wilderness slayer? What about all those things players suddenly were able to do, that just never were worth the trouble due to the risks involved? What did they do before - at most abyss runecrafting given the fact, that this game lacks proper RC methods otherwise, maybe safe cracking or moth hunting due to no significant risk. What about actual new wilderness content, only half a year released earlier would basically have been a dead update and wasted dev time - like that wilderness update in 2016, players only quickly did it in the first few days to get the diary done for comp and then instantly abandoned it - making Jagex realize, that this system is a lost cause (Mod Pi - a dude who always was heavily behind the wilderness and its RSC mechanics - understood that) and not worth to be updated further. The only major update to that region in 6 years was that heavy revamp, that got rid of its 'uniqueness'. And boom - suddenly lots of players in there - despite those events not even having existed for a few more months - and yeah having gotten nerfed meanwhile with players still playing them.
