I just went onto the Beta for the first time.

Unfortunately I can't play on it, my computer can't support it.

So before I can start making any suggestions on the Beta you need to somehow make a lower spec option.

I do like the way the game is zoomed out more though.

One criticism I have is the light effects are too much on items, like the quest point cape is really bright and almost looks like plastic.

So a good place to start would be lower specifications and tone down lighting on certain items.

Also as a general bit of advice on the game as a whole...I think time would be better spent on developing long term content such as new skills, at this stage I don't think graphical updates are going to keep the player base going.

New content such as skills give something new for people to do for a long time, minigames and distractions and diversions won't cut it at the moment, the player base is looking for something to really keep them in the game, so I would really recommend looking into content with a high play time to developing time ratio.

Also lift the cap on the max xp and cash stack for max players, give them something to do while they are waiting for these updates.

There IS a lower spec option. Jagex Moderators have stated on multiple occasions that you can continue to use the Java Client if it is needed.

Having a weird issue with the beta. When i log in and select a world, it starts loading an environment that I'm not in, such as the wilderness. After the environment loads most of the way the game freezes and i am kicked to the login screen. Anyone else having this issue or know how to fix it?

I understand that this is just a beta and it's bound to have its problems... But this framerate is just horrible. With a computer like mine I really shouldn't have to suffer framerates under 10 while moving.

I really cannot test anything before the framerate is decent enough.

Actually the beta is on html5 only right now, Jagex is saying that once it is released into the game you will have the option to play on Java if you prefer.
