Yay! Just another way for Jagex to **** off 80% of its player-base! Great job! You should of at least sent out the emails a few days, or a week, early so people like me aren't waiting for an email that will never come. And then tell us we have to wait another four days until we get access. If you are going to make a CLOSED BETA don't rub it in everyone's faces that did not get picked.

I thought I would be really excited for this and I was. But there are quite a few things I don't like and or don't get. I don't get how when you equip certain armour your max hitpoints are increased or decreased, and then it takes way too long to wait for your hitpoints to restore themselves, this causes a food waste. I don't mind max hitpoints being increased but for it to really be effective hitpoints would have to increase rapidly or at least stay the same if switching armour.
Currently players stand how we stand in an extremely laggy world, with our legs together and completely straight. I personally like the old way we stood. Shoulders on girls are too broad, someone else mentioned before that girls look like guys and we do and we shouldn't. I find faces to be very creepy looking.
I don't understand why it was changed so that you needed the herblore lvl to drink a potion. There are few players who make their own potions to be used for themselves in combat. This gives players who are already maxed or have a high herblore lvl an advantage in combat.
I understand the reason as to giving monsters the ability to utilize the other parts of the combat triangle. I went and tested out Skeletal Wyverns, normally I can kill them fairly easily already, with the beta not so much. My normal armour is dragon, with the beta I tried torva, and with the torva I was taking much more damage than with dragon. This doesn't seem right to me, seeing as torva is meant to be the best melee set in game it should reduce the amount of damage not take in more than my normal dragon. Monster hitpoints were raised but not combat lvls. Last thing, I don't like how you only get exp AFTER you kill the monster. <--This is much too like all the other mmo's and I don't like it. Please change it back so that you get exp DURING the fight.

Bandos armours have identical bonuses to those of Barrows (Bandos helm being better than Torag's). This isn't right. Barrows gear is so much easier to obtain compared to Bandos- there's no way they should be as good!
I'm hoping that you fix this, either by rising Bandos' armours stats or by reducing them in Barrows.

I have attempted to log in a multitude of times and everytime before I can even move I am kicked off of the server because of crashing servers. Hopefully this will be fixed sometime soon because I would like to help give you feedback on the Beta, but I can't if I can't do anything. From what I've understood though, I do like it that you are limiting who can use what potions because if you train herblore, you should certainly have an advantage over a lower level who does not train in being able to use potions they can't.
