I rarely comment on changes/updates to the game, figuring that people don't like change and will get used to it. Having now had a look at NIS I have to ask,why?

In a video the mod says several times something like "instead of being all over the place". I am sorry but the interface was not all over the place but sure is now. And no matter how you play with it a good portion of play area is lost.

The log out/exit button needs to be visible onscreen. Hidden the way it is makes no sense. It needs to be accessible as it is now.

As I said I am always prepared to get used to new things, but once all the buttons have been pushed and bells and whistles played with what's left? A screen full of clutter,something rs has never had. I don't think this is streamlining, I think it's a case of fixing something that wasn't broken. This just my own opinion having now tried NIS out.

Now a question. I opened my backpack after adding it to the chat window menu bar,then closed the backpack by clicking the cross at top right. This also removed it from the menu bar and I couldn't find it again,no matter where I looked. It showed up completely transparent when I opened my bank, but that was the only way I could find to access it. So I'm sure it's there somewhere but where do I find it?

Sir Rincewin said :
Invest more time in fixing the bot problems please.


You do realize that they do spend quiet a bit of time in dealing with bots right?

I mean, just a quick look on Google by typing runescape with Bot nuke day, ClusterFlutterer, or Optimus shows how serious they are on this subject.

They have a dedicated team that works on that issue while other groups do different things such as this.

My first impressions:

It's quite nice. I like the fact that I can customize it. I have wanted a health bar near the ability bar for so long... Right off the bat though, there are a few things I'd like to say.

--When toggling "run", I can barely make out if I am running or not. Make more contrast between run off and run on.
--THE BANK! I would like to be able to resize and move the bank window around.
--This may be just me, but it would be nice if the arrows to resize windows were a bit more sensitive. It takes me longer than it should to get the to show up.
--This may not come, but I always have the urge to soom out of the game, as if the camera is not enough... EDIT: I can zoom...
--There are a few small bugs (in bold ):

--When I open up my gear window, under the loadout tab, at the very bottom under attributes, the red bars under attacking are to long to fit in the little area for them. The bars overlap over the text (Melee, Magic, and Ranged)

I will report more as I explore. These comments are after 2 minutes of playing.

I have yet to play the new interface system, however during a recent quest I was completeing I came across a problem. When completing the puzzle to heal the tree in 'Branches of Darkmeyer', I found it extremely difficult to rearrange this puzzle as I am colourblind. To overcome this problem, I had to right click on each 'orb' to identify it. Whether this will become a problem for me in the future when playing is unknown, however if there is anyway you can include a 'colourblind' option for the game in the future this would be hugely appreciated! Maybe just a change in colour scheme for certain options to distinguish them from other similar colours, but those colours in the quest were practically the same to me, apart from the water :P Just a suggestion as I'm sure I'm not the only colourblind player.
Thanks

1: It would be nice if the presets we have in full-screen mode were to resize themselves upon entering a new screen mode. I play with Windows 7, and one of my favorite things to do is play in the snap feature mode. This allows me to play runescape on the right hand side of the screen, and browse forums, watch videos, or general nonsensory on the left hand side. Currently, it seems the NIS is only applicable when runescape takes up the entire screen!

2: It would be nice to change the background color of the various tabs. It's great to be able to shift them around and change the see-throughness, but it's be awesome to change the color for further customization!

3: Someone earlier said to be able to change the size of the bank window when opened - an idea that I like and agree to. Moreover, can we PLEASE for the LOVE OF WHATEVER GOD YOU CHOSE, get rid of that pesky backpack preview window next to the bank? WHY IS IT THERE?!

4: Someone also said earlier that the whole escape-to-log-out is just NOT Runescape. I agree that a log-out button should be visible somewhere. At least maybe, an "Exit to Lobby".

5: It would be nice to have more than 2 custom preset options. I've already used my two and I don't want to lose one because I've got some ideas for another 1 or 2 set-ups.

6: Update game windows to match the current NIS windows.

That's all I can think of for now.

Hey, I've had Runescape for almost 5 years now, and I have always loved the game. The game has phenomenal potential as it not only gives a great medieval feel, but the overall freedom of choosing what you want to do (fighting isn't the only in-game skill you can train). Yet although I think this game is great and all, the one thing that could make this game even better would be to add races.
Races such as Elves, Dwarves, Gnomes, Half-elf, Halfling, and Human are some examples I have, and I know that there are many more to create. Maybe there could even be branches of a race, like if there was a regular elf race and an elf race from Tirannwn. Things like this, yet some races should be locked, requiring a certain skill level or a certain quest requirement to become.
Certain races should have perks or special abilities. For example, a dwarven race should be able to smith and mine faster than a Human, and they should have a strength buff, but have a magic penalty.
Races in-game should allow the player to change about once a month. This would allow players to be able to change from an undesired race to a more suiting race, yet there should be time limits to prevent someone from changing between races back and forth to gain their desired abilities and to swap again after a couple hours.
This may be a lot to ask but I think that this is probably the thing I want the most from the game. Thanks, and you guys have been doing a really good job adding to the game.
Sincerely, Bobinator ... :D
