The game has in the years gained many changes, All with it's own problems, After these years we all saw Runescape Fall down, Struggled to get back to it's Original Glory, The EOC Update also has his good and bad sides, Unfortunately, The Combat simplicity which marked runescape to the best mmorpg, Has now under gained a complete makeover, My personal thoughts about this are very simple, The Runescape combat has been swapped for a WOW game play as far as i know, I have never played WOW, I ve never intended too, Just because Runescape just showed it was more fun to play, Before the update, I loved 2 fight Clan wars With my corrupt Drag sets, I loved to fight old style with sometimes the luck which we all hated, But now Being a maxed player doesn't mean your many hours in the game pays off, I ve played so far 234 days and 1 hours, Which is 5617 Hours of training, Fighting others, Making fun.
Since the EOC Update, Those hours of training became useless, You now get killed by levels 100 while your 200.The whole idea of runescape has just been smashed to pieces, I still enjoy all off runescape without a doubt
, But the combat section of runescape, Is just not the reason anymore for people to keep playing runescape, My friends list was full, But now maybe I'm an extreme example, But all whats left of my comrades, Are 47 of them, Their reasons? mainly,The combat section of EOC , Some people also don't have good laptops/computers Which makes them lag a lot because of the upgraded graphics, Which was also a reason for some people to quit, I advise Jagex, Just like they did with the return of the wilderness which was a great succes, To once again, Make a referendum, Should we get the 2009 Runescape Back, Or will we continue With EOC? That would be the most satisfying way for the biggest part of the runescape community.
Keep doing what you do Jagex, But let the whole community choose, not only a part of it ( EOC BETA PROJECT)
I hope Jagex sees this, And will finally respond.
EOC is the WORST THING THAT HAS HAPPENED IN RUNESCAPE!!! Yes they brought back wilderness but NOW the joy of rs is gone... now its like all the other games out there... its sad.
The new combat system works well. I took a couple of days to figure it out on my own without that stupid adademy. Like the changes to where there are role players with groups of people, or i should say more defined roles. Interesting so far though keep it up.
Has anyone even considered that Jagex is ruining Runescape on purpose for their own reasons? They aren't giving 2 shakes about your rants btw, proven by no response. Shame
I always have liked to play all aspects of rs in the past, original game indeed. And ofc I agree with most on the poor change to combat, yikes!
Why are there no wand equivalents to staves, I.E. there are no wands that take the place of a specific type of rune or combination of runes?
Air Staff / Air Battle Staff / Mystic Air Staff = Wand?
Water Staff / Water Battle Staff / Mystic Water Staff = Wand?
Fire Staff / Fire Battle Staff / Mystic Fire Staff = Wand?
Earth Staff / Earth Battle Staff / Mystic Earth Staff = Wand?
Lava *attle Staff / Mystic Lava Staff = Wand?
Mud Battle Staff / Mystic Mud Staff = Wand?
Steam Battle Staff / Mystic Steam Staff = Wand?
I've always used a Mystic Air Staff for air rune spells and now it seems I need air spells to fight Basilisks which REQUIRE a Mirror Shield and makes my Mystic Air Staff ineffective, but there is no wand counter part. Burning through tons of air runes is not my idea of a game improvement.
Lets make something clear to the idiots running this thing...This ain't going to fly...The pk thing made me quit but i came back earlier this year. This has killed the whole thought out and carefully planned processes and game material. The economy problem? People lost biliions and billions and have an inventory full of garbage? Like I said it ain't going to rebound this time you'll have ur 3 month memberships for kids and the stay at home moms chatting on this thing while they're chopping wood and watch members fade away. Makes most of us sick!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You have your servers running check the amount of combat taking place at any given time now and go back say a month ago and see it's probably less then 50% and memberships will continue to run out. 1 down and waiting for 2 more....over...You waited to long last time. What if you changed it in a week? news tomorrow? I know better lol ....ur heads r to far somewhere lol...chuckle at t he coffe in the morning..hahahhahahahahha
