I am unable to play this beta. I am using latest Chrome. The message I get is talking about ports and firewalls but that is not my problem. The port is open. I have even turned off my firewall, still no joy. The first couple of days the beta was out I could play with no problem. But have been unable to play since that time. I have tried logging in all times during the day, many many times. I have contacted support and they basically said tough, that my internet was probably too slow. Does this mean I will not be able to play once this becomes the main game? Here is my message:

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.

"The first day I logged on and it was fine with a normal HTTP web address but ever since I have not been able to log in with a warning that my firewall is the problem. It is clearly not as turning it off does not resolve.

However, if I log in with the HTTPS web address, i can log in,"

What is the https address? I tried just using the same address but with https, but I get an error that the page does not exist. I am having this same firewall problem that is not a firewall problem, so I would like to try the https trick.

Was trying to quote this with my question about the https address. What is the full https address please?

I must say, i was very close to quitting rs but this is a giant step and i can see there has been a lot of time put into rs3. You wanted feedback so here it is.
- I really like being able to move my stuff around (boxes) and being able to expand the chatbox (AWESOME!)
-Combat looks much better now
-RS is looking like a game that will attract a lot more new players
-Still testing but its looking great so far.
DISLIKES:
- I do like seeing the characters up close, however for when questing or just travelling in general i have always looked down on my character, with the new version i am forced to look around and i cant look down n my character anymore. (you can but your vision is extremely limited) i think if there was a zoom option this wouldnt be a problem.

Keep up the great work and thank you for selecting me for the beta :)
