This is how you attract players. Not with some stupid SoF, Solomon's, or release of 2007. You make content that looks exciting, and very interesting. This is an update that deserves our attention and compliance with.

THIS x eleventy billion.

Almost word for word what I was coming on here to post.

Very excited and so glad to hear that we aren't starting from scratch. Hopefully it will work on a tablet.

I haven't liked some of the most recent updates but I am looking forward to this. I hope those with older pc's won't be too affected by the changes. My PC and laptop should be able to handle what's coming but not everyone can afford to upgrade at a moments notice. The sooner players know about the specs the better.

So in other words..... Runescape is going to be changing every 3 months it seems because you guys are not getting the numbers you want and can't seem to find a way to make people happy?

Solution: Stop changing the game, Nobody wants the game to change as your staff wants it to change. It seems like your graphics team has a bigger part of this game then the content team, why is that?

Progressing a game and changing a game are two different things, it seems like you have chosen the ladder. You have Re-Released the 07 servers which was great, but your community isn't really those players, your community is the pre eoc players and for us we get the either go way back or move way forward to a different progressed version of a game making it a changed game.

I know changes wont be made and I don't really expect them to be, I just wish your focus was to preserve such a good game rather then destroy it because so many of your employees have all these "great" Ideas *hat counteract with each other, I feel you have lost your vision of what this game was about and now it's pretty much a "oh that's a good idea, lets add that."

In conclusion, I think it is important to Progress your game to stay relevant but not change it and even worse change it at the expense of the people who are making it possible for you guys to stay in business, at the end of the day it's customers first right? Maybe we're not good enough though because the thirst for financial gains seems to have out weighed the passion for making a great game within a great community of people.

This is looking pretty promising. The thought of some new features is certainly a big draw.

Although if there is one thing I've always felt would compliment the game's atmosphere, it would be a day and night cycle. So I ask, will "Runescape 3" be capable of supporting a potential mechanic like this? The immersion, and general aesthetics (Showing off dynamic lighting and shadows in locations dependent on the time of the day) could be brought to a whole new level if you allow something as simple as time to the game.

Wow, I was sincerely blown away when I saw the snipits from RS3. The music was incredible as well. Definetly going to be one of my favorite updates of 2013 I think ;)

But I have a couple questions:

1. Is the game still going to be grid-based or will it be free-roam?
2. Is it going to be click-and-point or WASD?
3. I saw alot of talk about FireFox and Chrome, but I personally use IE :P I hope this will be supported? -Ascertes, King of all the Hallowlands and the Everchosen of Saradomin.
