Will there be a server left back for current runecape and runescape 3 be a third new server or will you pull runescape 2 along with runescape 3? i much prefer everything be pulled along and nothing left behind it would split the community too much like 07 scape did

I have been a long time player, and I must say I am completely 100% pleased with the direction the game has taken over the years. It went from being an awesome game, to an amazing game. The amount of content, skill wise and story wise is absolutely amazing. I can't imagine the amount of man hours you guys/gals put into this game in total. I just want to say thank you. You folks do very good job at keeping me coming back day after day. I look forward to rs3!

Nice call guys.

I can only imagine what a big a call it was to re-write the client. I hope that this brings about a renaisance of the "good old glory days" and brings a breath of fresh life to the game. I think the game has so much to offer and hopefully now it can compete on the graphics front.

Oh and BTW, if you introduce night/day or summer/winter into the game, can you please remember the other half of the world? You always talk in regional terms like "this winter" and special weekends always start on Saturday GMT when NZ and Australia have missed half of their Saturday. Just a suggestion. :)

PPS. I can't wait for your summer to arrive either.

Dolllar.

Oh great, so I have to buy a new gaming computer to benefit from the new graphics.... Did it EVER occur to you that maybe some people can't just run out and buy a new computer every dang year? And I don't believe one word of the notion that it is US and OUR preferences which drive the game. What drives the game is how much more money you wring out of us. Not all of us are gullible idiots, Jagex. Yeah it will look beautiful but the hiscores are still ruined by people having bought high ranks through sof, and whether you know it or not, ranking high (preferably in the top 22) in the hiscores IS the main addictive element of the game. Why do you THINK Runescape has lasted as long as it has? It has (had) competitive hiscores that a person could work hard to rank high on. Now that is only true of Old School Runescape. Right now I am playing both games, but it's like 2 hours on eoc and 14 hours on Old School. I expect that ratio will continue no matter what sugar coated graphics you offer. Good fight, Jagex.

I personally think this is pointless. You're whipping a dead horse with this. Jagex killed this game, years ago. When they first got rid of the wilderness, and the current game is forever a ghost, of what it once was. It will never be the amazing game it was then. Only on the 07 servers, and EOC has made that completely evident. See people going on, and on, about "The graphic updates look amazing" Okay, so they look nice, would you rather it look nice and have horrible content, or have great content, easily played, and a strong community like back before any time in 2008, when the game started taking it's toll for the worse. What their trying to do here is breathe new life into something that's long dead, now more like a vampire, and with eoc, that was like the last blow, the steak to the heart, if you will. Killed staking, killed pvp, over simplified skills and made anyone who worked their way for those skills more the agitated for it. Jagex. Focus on 2007, not this. Most people say the future is looking forward and forget the past, in times like this. But I believe for once, it's much better to look back at things that where better, because with the oldschool servers, you've made it a reality. That's where your real players are. In the good version of the game, where they belong.
