i was never a fan of yak trak. and this is pretty much the same. it seems to just make people feel pressured into doing stuff than doing it casually imo. its the same pretty much all mobile games. which gives the "we want you to be addicted" feel. and im not a fan of that

i wont partake in it. i just dislike the way rs3 is going with this.

Agreed. While I begrudgingly dedicated time to complete all tiers of every Yak track, this is where I will be drawing my line.

While I'll see how high I will get in this first season during my 75 > 120 Necromancy levelling, I will no longer be dedicating time exclusively to it.



yeah i wont be trying to complete anything on it. even though i possibly will just with how i play normally.

I've ignored the last few yak tracks as well, only reason I completed them is through skill & kill - I did a lot of skilling lol...

I also agree, this "Hero Pass" sounds like just another FOMO thing, and I don't plan to dedicate any time at all towards participating....
Things may be looking down now, but I see a light at the end of the tunnel;
Do you think I should get off the tracks?

yeah dailyscape on steroids, also what a joke of a misrepresentation.


On the positive site, Jagex could have done this after everybody got there Premier for 2024.


Now I dont want to be a premier member anymore..


PS

I hope the rewards are claimeble, and not received upon completing the task.

So i can ignore the content, and not claim rewards.

You make it sound like Jagex is sending bounty hunters to your home forcing you to play, and specifically to play the Hero Pass (optional battle pass system)


thats what activities are called that are done daily.

its not a negative term just a term used to explain activities that are done well.... daily


we also havent said we feel forced. infact we have people here saying they wont partake in it at all. so im unsure what you mean by your post

This is another case of fixing past mistakes. Some folks might not agree, but IMO the Yak Track crew was always responsive to player feedback, even while knowing the goal was to generate $.

TH was definitely nerfed to dust. When you get multipliers and they guarantee the smallest prize possible it's not good. Also giving out like 1 dummy. LOL.

I think this will work, getting daily players more engaged and better rewarded for it. You login and can't think of what to do? There are tasks available. Forever.

My main question is how they can afford 90 cosmetic items but Raptor was left to the wolves? Couldn't they work some MTX magic and help out when needed?

Edit: one other thing, they were correct. I was definitely using double XP promos to stockpile for future use. But not double XP, it was for the Yak, which gave bonus XP for months on end. :P

"My main question is how they can afford 90 cosmetic items but Raptor was left to the wolves? Couldn't they work some MTX magic and help out when needed?"

These questions were answered in spectacular ways. The cosmetic items are basic and look like everything we got before. Except for a few.

The overhead skill icons are a nuisance to be dealt with. Here they are encouraging more players to use them.

Then we learned that the devs had to test the MTX update, meaning all we got was the XP nerf for rituals. From the month of dedicated development time. (has that even started yet?)

The interface for hero pass is cool and functions properly. If I use my imagination I can almost pretend that there are rewards for doing this.

I'll do it anyways, even if that is bad for data science. Because I play the game. ;)
