Q) With the update of the seasonal hiscores, can we expect to see f2p accounts make a full return on either their own hiscores or infused with the live hiscores now?


Hi there, thanks for your question!

Seasonal HiScores and the HiScores as they stand now will remain a members only feature. We feel they're a premium feature for Runescape and thus this is unlikely to change.

How long did it take you guys to design the site we have now and the new one that is coming out?


@Dragons526, months and months of hard work!!

The drop-down links at the top of the site (News, Game Info, Community, Forum) are really annoying to expand with a phone. Will they be going or better coded?


These work better on the new site on touch devices. We haven't explicitly designed the new website for touch, but we made sure we fixed this so now if you tap one of the headers it will expand the menu rather than taking you to the main link.

With the launch of the NIS and RS3 coming, there appears to be a lot of customizable features... With the new web page will we be able to customize it to our liking?


Of course Toxic, we are going to give you the ability to tailor the homepage to the areas you want to see. However, we are always open to feedback so when you get access to the new site, please don't hesitate to come up with areas you would want to customise and post on the forums. :)

Can we do more with our Adventurer's Log now? Or will we still be stuck with the Raptor on our screens and all that? (...what was he doing there anyway)

A question for Mod Galcian.

Regarding the camera in RS.

The camera currently in beta is much more capable than the camera currently in the live game. However, I have been playing around with the orb of oculus in the HTML5 beta and found that there are views which can really make the most of the new world graphics.

The views using the orb of oculus are essentially extremely far out or very close to the ground or directly above. extremely far out and directly above looks great and would be great for navigation around the world. Low down can really create some impressive perspective.

My question being, will it be possible to get the camera to be even more advanced, if so could we be seeing even more change to the camera in the close future?


Hey there!

Thanks for your question; I'm glad you're liking the new camera! You'll be pleased to know that we've actually just increased the outer zoom levels for the RS3 camera even further than what they are currently in the NIS beta! Woohoo!

We've also allowed players to move the camera slightly further down so looking up at the awesome new skyboxes is slightly easier. However due to some awesome technical features we've included in the new camera to prevent the camera clipping through the ground; it's slightly more difficult to allow players to look straight up.

1. Will we be able to compare ourselves in high scores with clan mates like we can currently to with our friends list?

2. Will the new high-score system enable clans to hold there own events. Like a 2hr chicken killing spree?

3. In the clans section can we see more useful info about clan mates. ie. Last login, contribution to citadel, xp earned this week stats that make it easier to promote active and demote or ban inactive players.

4. Will we be able to see a change history for the clan? For example who got promoted this week and by whom, who got demoted this week and by whom, who changed the citadel quota, who added something into the citadel build list. Basically I am looking at information about the clan so we can self police trouble makers.


I'll answer each question separately here (related to high scores anyways) :) .

1: This isn't something we'll be launching with, but it's something we'll be adding further on down the line.

2: Again, unfortunately this isn't something we were able to get in for launch but it's something we're really keen on getting out there at a later date.

I'm not sure on your other questions sorry :( .

Is the new website more compatible with smartphones and tablets? (if not how/why?)

Currently the drop down menus and buttons make it very difficult to use.


We have reduced the loading time for the new website so that it will reduce the burden for our mobile users. Also, due to the size of buttons on the new homepage, it's a lot easier to click to get the dropdown menu. :)
