hi all, could somebody tell me what does this mean ? use the HTML5 client to experience RS3? How to understand if i have this client ?

HTML5 is unfortunately a messy term and over-used.
Basically in this case it means if your webbrowser (Chrome,Opera*** etc) can display 3d textured games without the need for a Java plugin.

If your using Chrome, theres some great demos here you can see if they work for you:
http://***.chromeexperiments.***/

It isn't really a messy term. It's just the latest version of HTML5 which is very different from the older versions and is still not fully supported.

For those asking about IE well IE doesn't support HTML5 in full so yeah get on at microsoft about that if you want to play on IE.

Previously HTML has just been about the version of the markup itself.
HTML5, however, is used as a branding term to mean HTML5 markup+CSS3+WebGL+a new Javascript version etc.
Its a lot more then just the new tags. Ironically, a lot of HTML5 branded stuff even runs fine if your using 4.1 markup.
Thats why I consider it messy.

Will input lag be reduced? No matter how 'pretty' you make RS it will never feel like a modern, slick, polished game until the ridiculous input lag (particularly for movement) is reduced drastically.

Sadly that is not lag. It's the way the game ticks work. We need a lot of support if they are gonna change this cause it will require an almost full content rework. So every piece of content needs adjusted. I am in favour of a change but people don't seem to care. So I suggest trying to get support for it,

Id love to see that changed too.
Would give them more flexibility with game controls/movement. I do see people wanting ASDW controls, and while it isnt needed for that, it would certainly make any "non click" based controls a lot slicker.

Personally I want it for manually controlled mounts and vehicles.

Looks awesome! Can't wait!

Though to be honest the shots of Burthorpe and the Kharidian desert just make the game look SMALL now. It needs to be expanded! More details on why in my thread: 185-186-595-64167442 I'm just a man; I'm not a hero.
Just a boy who had to sing this song.
