Looks okay.

Please don't rush Rs3/New Interfaces and make sure they are fully ready for release...

And what about the update to how bonus Xp works? Is this still in line for release?

They never rush them. But don't expect everything to function properly on release. Betas only do so much; they have to release these things to the live game to get the most feedback, even if it causes rage.

Yes... Because we all know "EoC was ready" right?

You Jmods are absolutely pathetic.

In what was supposed to be the year of the gods, we only got 1 quest in 6 months.

You promised us less RWT updates, not a RWT-fest.

"We have literally doubled the size of the RuneScape team, and we are making massive investments in technology and improved support", Mod MMG. If you "literally doubled" the development team then why the pace of updates has been reduced to less than 10% to when the development team was 2x smaller?

I noticed that the last 3 months's BTSs have been much smaller and you could notice a heavy quality drop on the updates.

You guys are absolutely pathetic.

? Did your dog eat the 2nd page of the BTS? What is this? A grand total of 17 people enjoy your high level combat. 16 of them work with you and the other is a habitual liar.

I hope Solomon has bought you a very comfy pillow. Must be rough napping on those hard desks.

Just 2 main updates this month which were announced previously, not really a BTS, however I'm happy at the lack of content this month...
These 2 updates are enough and I hope they use the rest of the month to do some much needed improvements & fixes on many aspects of the current live game.

I can not wait for Vorago & its good to see your making it so you need a high Runecrafting level to make the gear, more stuff like this please!

:D

Wow you guys never cease to amaze me on how much dedication you actually pour out into this game we all call RuneScape. These updates are a great addition to the game because the very hard boss is exactly what everyone including me was looking for and I cannot wait for it. The very funny quest is exactly what so many people need because some of them are depressed and some of them like me, need something to laugh very hard at once in a while. :) It's sad that I can't have a computer access for who knows how long because I recently moved. The saddest is if I missed this whole month. Anyway these updates are an awesome addition to the game and once again keep up the good work and keep those creative juices flowing. ^_^

And that's exactly what I'm afraid of! I haven't tried html5 beta, but the new interfaces systems is very, very incomplete and full of bugs. How they want to get it ready for release this summer is a mystery to me. Join the RuneScape community on Reddit in

Most people who kill bosses do it so the are able to train their skills. BTW 2402 total. I'm pretty sure I don't limit myself

You may not limit yourself to just combat but it is possible to do nothing but boss fighting and train all your other skills without actually training them, and in the process become richer in GP and items in six months from boss fighting than you could from six years of non combat skilling. That is something I never understood, why non combat skilling was allowed to become so obsolete that we still can't make better than rune from mining and smithing, which is the same armour available when the game started, while combat was given drops that should have been smithing updates.

I'm not saying combat should not be rewarded, but combat should not be the only way to gain items, non combat skills should be able to make anything a player can get from combat drops and be just as useful for earning GP as combat is.

There is something wrong with the game when you can do nothing but boss fight and gain XP in all non combat skills too without having to train them, and when combat is the only way to obtain wealth other than merchanting or cheating in some way.

If I were in charge non combat would be capable of producing all of the best gear in game and of earning GP just as much if not more than combat allows.

I would not have an imbalance where combat makes someone exceedingly rich but where non combat makes so little gp in comparison.

I would not have all materials easy to obtain from non combat, I can think of so many ways to add luck, risk, and difficulty to non combat to rival any combat boss. Hi.
