in response to all of you who think RS3 is a disaster, or complaining about not having access to the beta, get away from runescape because you desecrate this great game. The people at JAGEX work themselves to death to make a great game with you. The fact of the matter is 90% of the runescape community is fully in support of almost everything that JAGEX does. Sure, they may not make due on all of their promises, but when have you ever lived up to all of your expectations?Hmm? Didn't think so. Reply only if you agree. SHERLOCK SEASON 3 DOCTOR WHO 50TH ANNIVERSARY!!!!!!!

Have you even played the BETA yet? Have you played the latest build? It's not ready! The thing is bug filled and way to laggy to even play for the majority of players.

I'm not worried how the existing player base will see RS3, I am worried with how reviewers, new players and returning players see RS3. This is Jagex chance to revive Runescape, but if they rush it and release RS3 before it is ready, then all their effort will be for nothing! When RS3 is released and Jagex say it is released, new players and reviewers will judge it as such, they will judge it and never return and always keep that opinion about the game forever!

I want Runescape and Rs3 to do very well! But right now, with the way the EoC went and the way Rs3 is looking, it does not look like things are going well at all.

Reality check Amdelel. Master Zone gave you one. So wipe the brown off your nose from in front of your eyes and have another look.


I DO NOT blame the regular employees. They're being overworked, undoubtedly underpaid, and having to put up with complete **** from above.

The blame is squarely with management, and has been for some years. And release of RS3 looks to be exactly analogous to what happened with EoC and even the CEO manned up and told us that went poorly (despite that we beta testers from last year told him when the release date was announced that releasing it half-assed would be worse than waiting and getting it right).

Nobody outside of jagex has played the latest build you moron, the version in the beta has not been updated at all so of course it is going to be laggy and riddled with bugs, but all that feedback is going into the build that jagex has in their office which is closer to the final product.

Fascinating. So we can't leave feedback on the version we'll actually be using? Ad hominems like 'moron' don't even begin to describe that as a strategy for running a beta test.

It's really nice that we have a massively buggy version to test and you're so sure they have fully functional problem-free version they'll just pop out at us next week. That's very reassuring!

When did you start employment with Jagex again, Rsdoomlord?

@ Rsdoomlord

Have you ever BETA tested AAA games before? Have you BETA tested for major AAA MMORPG's? I have, I apply for them all the time. The BETA testers are meant to test all the way up to near the final product. When I BETA tested for Guild Wars 2, I BETA tested the early stages when it was laggy and buggy as hell (like RS3 is now) and when it was near the end, we BETA tested very close to the final product as well!
Honestly, compared to the other BETA testing I have done for AAA MMORPG's, RS3 feels like it is still Early BETA... O_o


I have also never seen a BETA test this short as well, they normally last months and even go for a year.


The point of BETA testing is not to get early access, the point is the FIX THE GAME!


The funny thing is that I had access to the RS3 BETA since the start and have not been able to BETA test it or really play it because I can't, it's unplayable! The majority of RS3 BETA testers can't play the RS3 BETA, EVEN NOW! So why don't you shut your mouth and stop speaking about stuff you don't understand!

very curious to see what software was employed in the development of this new release...
is anyone able to shed light on the javascript apis the developers used?


They are using their own existing runetek as well as HTML5 and openGL. They got rid of DirectX 9 for openGL, sigh...
