Aside from the bad lag, which prevented me from doing anything but a small amount of exploring, I did not like the water graphics. Very patchy-glitchy looking, it would be great if the new water in regular runescape was used.

I didn't like the bank screen. The smudgy black outline around the icons looks messy and ugly. Same for the icons in inventory.

Character graphics were not as clear and sharp as in normal RS. My face was so blurry, it was just a blob, like my head was a light bulb.

Various effects in the game just didn't look good compared to normal RS. For example in the wizard tower the clear floor in the middle and the light beam looked more like low detail style graphics. The same area in normal RS looks awesome.

Shadows in the game are too dark

Audio was terrible in every way shape and form. My advice is to try beta with your sound off, it is that bad.

What did I like about Html5? Not that much. Farther draw distance was cool, but that is eye candy that isn't really all that important for a game like this.

Some better detail in textures like walls and such, a slight improvement in color variation, but that is about it.

With too many features and options not yet enabled in beta, and too much lag, I can't add any more input than this so far.

I wanted to say that Google Chrome , takes alot of Extra's with it like instaling random software at ur pc , this might make ur pc slower etc .
There is a Java Dll thats corrupt and auto installs a Virus ( but this don't happen alot , so don't worry that much but i just say it if it is ) but make sure ur virus scanner scans everyday ( for this Java dll File) its only to make sure ur pc don't crash , or that u have to deinstal ur java , and then restarts pc @ safety mode , then re instal java , Restarts ur pc and the Leak of this Dll is gone and won't come back for as long as it takes.

Just wanted to help u guys out if it says @ google chrome or @ java

Error_game_js5connect - Unable to connect to update server.
RuneScape was unable to connect to the update server. This is most likely caused by a firewall blocking the connection.

To resolve this:

If you have firewall or security software installed, they can often block RuneScape from accessing its servers. Please ensure that RuneScape/Java can connect to its servers on port 43594.
Note: Windows XP Service Pack 2 has built in firewall software. If, when loading RuneScape, this asks if you want to allow the connection, you need to say 'yes'.
If that doesn't help, then an external firewall may be causing the problem. Please ask your network adminstrator/ISP to open port 43594 for TCP traffic so that RuneScape and Java can run correctly.
If problems persist, please refer to the Technical FAQs, which can be found in the Customer Support section of our website.

I get logged into w79, wich is a members world on rs2, but I can't buy or search any member item of GE. Is that supposed to be in BETA? The depht is sooo nice. I wonder if the full RS3 will allow for us to see the chars that far. At the moment, I don't think we see anything more than fixed buildings or trees. Would be lots of fun to see the people walking or running in the distance. The colors are still off and the clan cloak and vex show in boring blue but I guess that's just a detail. Too bad it's still too lagy to go and slay a few things. Can't wait to try the combat in there

i finally got to play it; kept on telling me I hadnt downloaded google chrome and I did. I like it except for being choppy and lagging which im sure is normal at this point. Love the graphics. Not a technical person so cant say much more. just did some smithinig on Nietiznot lol. It was very slow and laggy and i had trouble with clan chat it kept telling me I wasnt in friends chat even tho I was doing //. Thanks so much for all you do for us; I at least appreciate all the hard work. Keep it up!! sincerely susiedane
