Fantastic work as ever guys.

Looking forward to the quest, and may try my hand at Vorago, just to experience the hurt!


On a side note guys, I doubt any of you will read this. But I haven't posted on a BTS since (I think?) 2009, and I think now would be an apt time to do so. Whilst players who feel negatively about updates voice their criticisms on this forum, as is there right to do so, please be aware that there is a group of players who approve of your work, but don't feel the need to voice our opinions as we rush off to the game, levelling in hope of better being able to meet the new updates!

I know not everyone is like that, but I again know (from talking to guys in game) that there are plenty of people who are in the same boat as me...so on behalf of those people; rock on Jagex!

We definitely do not need new magic armour. Too many updates regarding higher tier gear this year, it has got to stop! There will never be any balance if you keep doing these piecewise additions to the combat triangle. A tier 90 magic weapon is appreciated, however. Virtus is practically worthless now, and seasinger's reign lasted barely 3 quarters. The RS economy is going to be in shambles if this continues.

It says a lot when virtual bacon becomes the hot update of the month.

Next month... Celery sticks! With celery stick men pets that level up with you!

Do you see why I find this excitement unwarranted? (Although the prospect of levelled up celery stick men is somewhat more appealing than a levelled-up pig or lump of rock)

I agree with the mage armour - we already have gano, virtus and seasinger - more high level magic armour is overkill. Some balance would be GREAT.

Looks like a decent month, maybe not as many updates we're used to. Although I honestly never expected jagex or any other gaming company to release an update EVERY week without fail. It takes a lot of time and money to develop these updates and unfortunately a lot of people fail to realize that.

However, I do sort of wish jagex wouldn't say things like "It's going to be YOUR year!", because this year is far from bad, it's also far from great. In my opinion, they should probably just give us the BTS articles and avoid advertising things that are a bit too far into the future and thus getting everyone's hopes up for something that may or may not be released when expected.
