Guess what with RS3 say bye bye to half your players, that's $200-$400k down the drain every month which is a lot since your a greedy *****

Graphics can be just importent for someone as for you your internet exployer. :)

Google Chrome is probably the worst browser available. Firefox and IE9 have better implementation of HTML5 (PC World Magazine for reference). The ONLY reason you are demanding we use Google is the kickback your getting from them on it. No other reason exists. I wont be ************ myself to satisfy your pocket book.


Thank you! Google's privacy policy is not so private and the money Jagex has received to make the new update only visible on Google chrome is pathetic. Seems as if Jagex is getting in the mindset (like so many other companies) that they are too big to fail.

I'm really excited for the new God content. I've always been interested in that aspect of the game, when I originally created my account my username was "brother zac" as he was going to be a monk.
It's great to see Jagex embracing this and I can't wait for the update, just finished doing tasks for the Zamorak God Emissary last night. I need to do a couple quests, like The World Wakes, in preparation for coming events.

Not to mention Divination will be out around late August, really looking forward to that as well.

Great stuff.

Oh and to the comments above concerning Jagex "forcing" google chrome. They've stated in several Q&A's that Runescape 3 will be coming to FireFox and IE as well, so I don't really understand the issue.

Not to mention Chrome has been rated the fastest internet browser for many years now, my source being Lifehacker, only recently very recently being beaten by Firefox. IE is supposed to be getting better now but still laggs far behind Chrome and Firefox. Ultimately, none of this freaking matters as, like Jagex said, RS3 will be available on all three browsers. Maybe not directly at launch, but still. Calm down. If you're die hard on using IE or Firefox at the get go then you can still use Java until they release an update that allows the HTML5 version to work on those browsers.

Which Browsers Support HTML5?
All the buzz these days when seems to be about HTML5. Web designers and techies everywhere have very strong feelings about HTML5 and either love it or hate it depending on who you talk to.
First let’s take a look at what HTML5 actually is and what it is used for. HTML is a markup language used to design and layout web pages. HTML5 is a new version of that language that has more tags and hence more design options.
Most people can agree more design options is a good thing. The controversy comes in mostly because certain companies like Apple are acting as if HTML5 is a standard when the reality is no browser fully supports it yet.
Essentially that means that for people using certain elements of it they will look nothing like they intended to most of the people who view the pages. So while HTML5 and its applications are definitely going to offer us some much cooler websites it is just not practical yet to use for your web designs.
We tested out a few of the most popular browsers to see how ready they are for HTML5 and this is what we found out. For this test we used http://***.html5test.*** which offers an HTML5 testing page and a rating system that goes up to 400 points depending on how many HTML5 features are already implemented into the browser.
Chrome 10.0 was the big winner coming in at 301 points out of 400 possible. They have already implemented most of the functionality to be a compatible HTML5 browser. In addition, many of the features that are not added are partially added. So Google Chrome is definitely way out in front in the race for HTML compatible browsers.

Firefox 4.0 is next in line and they scored pretty decently getting 249 out 400 possible points. They are still missing a lot of key elements but got bonus points for the audio and video implementation as well as their parsing rules.

Internet Explorer 8 is pretty far behind the curve. IE scored a total of 32 points out of 400. Pretty dismal showing for what used to be the top internet browser in the world. Internet Explorer has been playing catch up with rendering design since the implementation of CSS and their poor showing here tells us it does not seem like much will change in the future.

So those are the statistics. At the moment the only HTML5 browser that is going to get you very far is Google Chrome and until browsers catch up with the newer language it is probably a GOOD IDEA TO USE IT SPARINGLY IN YOUR DESIGNS UNTIL IT ACTUALLY IS A TRUE AND TESTED STANDARD.
