Hello!

Upon logging in, I noticed that there was a message telling me about the castle wars update. I was very excited for this

Apparently, 2.5 seconds later, my clan announced a Castle Wars event!

As I played with my fellow clan mates and rival clan, I was so impressed on how great and awesome the revamp was! (Even though a girl kept destroying me, I let her win

) I had an awesome time and adding the Evolution of Combat to it made it very enjoyable

. (Btw, it was my first time playing since EOC)

Thank you very much and thank you for making the game more addicting

(for me

)

Ummm, I don't suppose you could put back the door to the wall area, so we could still trap the penguins that wander up there?

What are the chances of there being multiple maps for players to choose from? Different layouts with different obstacles. Maybe even some natural hazards that can damage the player.

~Have a good one.

Hey guys,

Sorry about the connection loss, this was a slight miss calculation on my part, didn't think that many people would actually visit castle wars on day one (What was i thinking

) Anyway, this problem has now been resolved, so people on World 24 should now be able to get back into playing games again. SORRY!

@P E A C E,

We realized the issue with the barricades and routing after the game went live, we are looking at ways to bring this back to the way it was. The change was a global effect which was needed but it has obviously impacted CW in a different way.

Totally understandable. You can never really judge how things like that are going to happen until they are implemented. That's part of first adopter problems.

Still, it was funny seeing people 'riot' over something like this. I'm sure those people know way more about what it takes implementing and making things for an MMORPG than Jagex .

Thanks for the support DarkenPsycho

@ whitetalpa, it needs to be changed slightly to stop players from instantly wondering around barricades when people place them, they are designed to stop being from chasing you so easily.

Already, I don't like the new cape requirement. I feel it's only making things a bit harder, not easier. Sure theoretically you can get it much faster if you have a good CW chat/clan to sway favors in your side to win or least draw. However it can be hard for many because we don't all know nor join a CW chat/clan to play. I play normally because I like the challenge of it regardless of outcome.

However knowing I need to play so many games in order to achieve the requirement puts a damper on the fun. I'll still have to play approximately

5k games

which really is not an improvement. The new requirement demands at

least 1675 games

if you win, or it'll take 3350 to draw all. I'd rather play 5k game regardless the outcome than worry about getting on the right team and winning/drawing. Despite the time spent would be shortened, it's more simple and easier to enjoy the game despite outcome.

I never supported making CW games a requirement as it has nothing to do at all with skills or tasks etc. It's a game inside a game, there's no real rewards from it which you can benefit on RuneScape with it. Hopefully there'll be further looks into reducing or removing the requirement.

Couldn't agree more. To be totally honest the way I feel about castle wars.. I'll never see

trimmed

completionist cape.
Oh well I'll just be happy obtaining the completionist cape itself
