As was warned, loading times and a bit of lag are experienced BUT - the view from the top of the Wizards Tower - awesome! Graphically, noticed a huge difference - not so much gameplay-wise as I haven't really been brave enough to try some of the more challenging tasks out there, what with the slight lag and all... Will be keen to see how this develops over the coming weeks/months.

Very pleased! Already went to some of the highest places in game and I like the highest draw feature. Hope to see more improvements such as a touch more movement in the water. Also I suggest going to each lodestone so it gets a chance to load the code for that area. It made everything run better for me.

Shame the long standing members who pay by credit card get over looked by the people who may buy members once in awhile to get the freebies we don't get :( :@ or who bought members to get access to the beta RS3...disgusting as usual. Happy go Lucky :)

Logged in last night and must say the new graphics do look incredible. Managed to get everything on its highest setting and maintain a pretty decent FPS - looking across the dessert with full draw distance, bloom effects and the water effects on some of the nearby streams were really impressive.

With this only in beta at the moment, really looking forward to greater optimisation to help improve the initial load times when teleporting around. As some people have already stated, the performance improves the longer you are in-game for, I'm guessing when a lot more of the shaders have had time to spool up.

Hi, not sure if its me, but it looks horrible :-( no distinct lines, very fuzzy not at all what i expected.

It is taking a while to load the page and the graphics as i move about- i expected that, but even when i revisit, its well, ughh. will it improve as time goes on or is it because this is beta?, do i need to change something in my settings?

I have good specs on my pc. and have superb graphics on 'normal' rs. (also, i couldnt remove roofs, is this a temp. thing?

I am not very computer savy, so maybe theres something i am missing :-) Love the oppurtunity to test it out though, and appreciate it is early days

Mugz ps- i keep losing connection there too.
pps.- from top of scorpion tower, the mage trees have no leaves :-)

Mod crow why was everyone with a year or more membership with no breaks in payments given access to eoc beta but not for html5 beta. This number has to be way bigger than the number for html5 beta yet you say you can't give early access cause its too many. I don't care either way if I have access or not early on but it seems as of late you have been placing people in groups causing a lot of ill feelings among your loyal player base. I truly hope this works itself out cause so many people have put a lot of time and effort and gave your their hard earned cash to play a game they love only in turn to get slapped in the mouth.

I have to admit I really like the new HTML5 Beta! I love how the items look in the bank with the fire cape and tokhaar-kal having their flowing movements. As lag improves I'm sure I'll be enjoying the beta more and more :D

Quick note; I thought the customisable interfaces were going to be with this release? When will they be arriving :o

I didn't read the previous post yet to see if anyone had this problem and fix, so I thought I would post it just in case. If you login to ******** client but get to the runescape login screen or the lobby screen after logging in and can not use your mouse to click the play button or select anything, just disable or delete your runescape game bar. It worked for me. I had the bar installed on Firefox and Google Chrome and removed it from both. Took me awhile to figure it out. lol :P Name for my Shadow drake is : Diablo Snowflake
