I'd like to thank you Jagex. The htlm5 graphics are breath taking. The first things I done while playing was going to a high up vantage point and looking off into the distance. Really made me appreciate all the land modeling and terrain work in the game. This makes me so excited for this summer. This will change everyone's opinion on Rune Scape's graphics. Yeah, Its still a bit slow and buggy but I know you guys will make it so most of us can enjoy all the work you've put into it. Great job and look forward into playing more of the Beta! :D

A little slow on the load time but it is to be expected as it is the first day of release. Everyone that got left out do not feel left out as all you will be missing at the moment is some slow load times and lots of lag. So do not fret. By the time you get to try it hopefully this will all be optimized :)

Let me get this out here, the beta, Graphics, and everything you've done so far is absolutely amazing. Now, on to the post.

The first initial thing I noticed was my Frames. I'm running a fairly high GPU, GTX 660Ti and bottle-necking it currently with an i5 2400 @ 3.1Ghz CPU. I will be upgrading that processor to an i7 3770k @ 3.5Ghz when it comes in. Also running 4 gigs of DDR2 and will be upgrading to DDR3 16 Gigs in the near future after the processor.

With the current specs said, i5 2400 and GTX 660Ti, I'm sure my computer can run RuneScape 3 on the highest settings. So, upon initial log in, I bumped it up to the highest settings. My Frames are running at a consistent 10-15 frames with AA on. Turning that off, of course, increases it by a point or 2 which is to be expected. I turned it down to low, just to see what it would do, and it my frames stayed at the constant 10-15 with the occasional 25. In Default RS, I was pulling 50 frames constant on high settings. Which brings me into the first question, is the HTML 5 client optimized yet? Or is it still a work in progress on those sides of things? Obviously, as a whole, it's still being tested because it's a Beta. But the FPS issue is quite a huge problem. That needs to be resolved ASAP so you can get other bugs worked out. No good if you can't get people in game.

Secondly, Monsters. I logged into the Slayer tower, first thing I see is a Bloodveld climbing on the wall. Not really climbing, more like floating. I'm pretty sure if this is happening here, it is happening elsewhere

Other than that, it's a beautiful thing to log in and see a town in the distance from the top of the Slayer Tower. When you run by the water, see your reflection in it. RuneScape has come a very long way and for that, I want to congratulate JaGeX on the release of *********. I will be looking forward to beta testing it more in the future.

Also, to add to the post. I am able to pull 50 Frames while injecting DirectX with XSplit to live stream, which is a huge frame killer.

EDIT: Believe the issue is in the shader. Pulling 37 frames at the top of the Slayer Tower with the Shader off. Turn that on, it's a frame killer.

"Don't forget: all members will have the chance to try out the HTML5 client and new interface system before RS3 goes live this summer."

this was said on the initial release so i assume that it means what it says all members will be able to try it out
