well here's my two cents worth in this discussion, I also have not been selected for the combat beta and IM not too happy about that... i have been a member for 6 months consecutive, been playing for more than 5 years and have a total of 63 days gameplay as well as about 4 months of on and off membership and i have not recieved access to the beta. I am dissapointed but i accept that i have not been chosen, just seems a shame that veterans and other long-standing players don't get in =/
thanks,
your loyal runescape player.

Im not fully convinced on the beta, for a start the exp system is terrible, there will be no point in doing slayer if the exp stays like this, i also got 400exp for killing corp.Also i cant see any difference in power between whips rapiers etc i seem to be hitting the same with the abillities with these one handed weapons.As far as i can see there is no difference between torags armour and bandos except for bandos helm being slighty better (unnoticable).When killing a boss between kills you can keep adreneline at full by using defencive abbilities meaning your at ultimate level at the start of the new kill, im a level 172 and was getting the kill by using my ultimate and hitting 3 5000s beating level 200's all the time.Turmoils effect is so slight ive tested with and without and cant see much of a difference atall, although soulsplit seems fairly ok. I love the anmiations and character models, but wepons seem way to similar. Also slayer helm has nearly no defence or life boosting making slayer even more unbalanced

1st problem - No one can kill anyone else unless they're stupid and dont eat. Its an endless battle.. In a way everything is so balanced that its impossible to go for a k0.. the only skill ive seen so far that is even possible for a halfway k0 is a stun + overpower. And mages seem to hit pretty consistant too. But other than that.. no smart person will ever die.. 2nd problem i see - The skills dont describe their costs / adrenaline gain. I try to set up a decent build that seems like it will do well in combat, and 50% of the fight i'm setting there waiting on a skill that should take 15 seconds to cool down to become active again. It doesnt specify how much adrenaline is needed.. ofcourse over time we will come to understand how long each skill takes etc but for now.. the first day of beta.. we need more info on the skill bar.

You all do realize that complaining/bitching/raging ect on the forums won't do anything right?
I highly doubt there's a single person at Jagex actually reads any post here or anywhere else on the forums.
A thread like this is just here so you direct your complaints and waste your time. Only other players actually read it.
And before anyone calls me out as defending Jagex and the EOC, just for the count I hate it too. You're better off mass mailing them.

in many cases where you are in a dungeon and there is like a hundred monsters that all are aggressive and hit through your prayer. or an area that has a lot of players trying too get a kill it seems like a stupid idea having multicombat area/letting the monsters hit through your prayer.
K-on ends with Yui, Mio, Ricchan and Mugi playing "Tenshi ni Fureta yo!" for Azu-nyan after their graduation. The song was written just for her as a gift for putting up with them.

i had two issues with the beta, second might be more of bug
1) it seems like alot of the monsters have to much hp/too long to kill
i was guna go try soloing zilyana and the kc took probably about an hour where as it takes mabye 20min normaly, the killing was way to slow in my opinion
-mabye lowering hp on monsters may be adviced
2) i was turning off auto retaliate but whenever i went to use the abilities on my toolbar it would switch my auto retaliate back on. was quiet annoying when id click an ability and it dragged me to a minion that was attacking me, forcing me to waste the ability on it

Just to sum it up the game is so balanced its rediculous, just get a whip and you have the same kO value as a guy with rapier which devalues dungeoneering, even rapier and Ls are exactly the same now except for one is slash and one is stab.The update will go ahead sadly and we will lose runescape as we know it but this new runescape will atract new people but it will lose alot of its original player sadly
