I second what she said and also the way you have the chat box that I have to repeatedly click on the chatbox after I've sent something is a bit tedious. I do understand the fact that you have key shortcuts and that's probably why but you sacrificed the convenience of the original chatbox.

The new combat is stupid, but here are some fixes to it: remove stun, atleast nerf it, if some1 stuns in right time, you are dead for sure.
Then 2nd thing, wilderness may not be multi. There can be the old multi areas, but edge wilderness must be single pking.

The new combat is honestly a big improvement. It feels more involved than just having to eat food and drink potions throughout. Having the powers puts a lot more skill into fighting, especially PvP. High leveled players getting beaten by lower leveled players should be possible, and this system does just that. Right now, I, level 125, have no problem dominating my friend who's level 98. In the beta, he actually beat me. I do dislike worldwide multicombat and constantly forget to press "enter" before typing, though.

I'm confused. While I was a member I signed up to the beta, doubting I'd get in, but I'm 99% sure I read an email confirming my entrance into the beta, however I don't have the email anymore, and, as I said, I'm 99% sure I had one.
Also if you *were* accepted into the beta as a member, do you require Membership to actually access the beta? Odds are yes, but I'm curious to know. Also if you don't have membership but you were accepted, does it tell you that you need membership or that you weren't accepted to participate?

Well from what iv heard it definitely needs tweaking but much of the feedback is for it. Id say around 40/40 for/against and 20% on the fence.

For instance as I said in my last post I do not understand why all duel wielded weapons must be "offhand".

personally I don't really like this beta, and i hope it doesnt get implemented, altho I apperciate the work and time thats been given to create it. I dont like it because as someone has already said - if i wanted to play like that, then i'd be playing World of Warcraft. This new beta is more intense and to be honest, i cant multitask enough to handle all the features. its information overload for me. So I dont like it, but i also understand that it would probably appeal more to some players who don't have the same trouble i do.
needs the lag fixed. and the chat box was awkward too.

I love the combat beta. I normally hate combat and avoid it at all costs because it's time comsuming and with pvp I die faster then you can say dead. With this update I would actually enjoy training combat. I hate range as it is, I would use it all the time with this. My favorite skill is magic, this takes it to the next level. Currently there is one change I would make.
Prayer = It should be included in the abilitys. You can add magic there, why not prayer too.
I have had accounts on here for the last 4 years. This and Runespan are my favorite updates to be and currently in game. I believe the people fussing about combat are the ones who don't like change and enjoy feeding off those whom it currently doesn't work for. They want old combat, make a runescape 3 and let them stay behind. I've been to rs classic and I hated it. I want this game to keep on advancing, not lay down and say this is far enough. I want my future kids to play this and say it's cool, not old school. That will be 15 years from now.
